It's hard to believe that it has already been 3 years since we joined the military and that tomorrow was graduation day. But today was the day when the commanders and captain from each squad would come to speak to us about what they did they do as part of their job.

"Moon, are you still going to join the Scout Regiment?" I looked over at Sola.

"Yes Soul, I am" I told her. Sola paused for moment in thought.

"I'm thinking about the Garrison" she said. Her and the Garrison? I don't know why but that for some reason surprised me. I wasn't expecting her to pick the scout regiment but I would be less surprised than finding out she was thinking about joining the Garrison. I mean, they might as well as be a laughing stock. The Scout Regiment at least goes out and try to make a difference.

"If you go to the garrison I will follow" Was the first response out of my mouth. She looked over at me, her eyes wide with surprise.

"7 years ago after I saved you and threw you in that boat, we vowed to you to never be separated. I refuse to break that vow" I told her, reminding us of the day we met.

"But your drea..." I cut her off mid-sentence and took her hand and placed it on my heart.

"Do you feel that?" I asked her. She stared at me in confusion.

"Yes..." she trailed off, slowly blinking.

"As long as that beats I'm staying with you" I told her was all I got out before our commander walked in and came towards us.

"You two, get your asses up! Some people would like to have a word with you." was all the respond that he gave us. We followed him out, soon finding ourselves in his quarters. At his desk stood two men, one of which was a tall blonde with piercing blue eyes. The other was man of short stature, probably standing a few inches taller than myself. He had dark straight hair, styled in an undercut. The blonde gave us a small smile as we entered while the other just stared at us, his grey eyes burning holes in our head. Hmm, he's actually pretty good looking if he didn't seem to be uninterested in everything going around him.

"This is Commander Erwin" our commander told us, nodding to the blonde.

"and Lance Corporal Levi" motioning to the dark haired male. The short male gave a little tsk.

"So these are the two who scored the top 2 spots?" Levi said.

"They both tied at first spot. They are a team, one excels at the 3d maneuver gear and the other excels at killing titans." our commander told them. The men seemed to process this for a moment before responding.

"What are your names?' Erwin asked us. I just stood there, not responding. Sola stepped forward.

"My name is Sola Pierce and this is Lunette Loveless" she answered softly, refusing to look them in the eye. Sweet freckled Jesus, you would think at this point she wouldn't be so shy with people.

"And you excel in what part" Levi asked her with a small frown planted on her face. Sola looked toward him, her voice slightly wavering as she answered back

"The, uh, maneuver gear sir! She is the one that is good with the blades" she said stuttered out, pointing towards me. Levi tsked again before walking up to me.

"Is there a reason you haven't answered, you little brat?" he asked me, getting into my face.

"That one doesn't talk much and if she does, she holds up to her red hair" the commander commented.

"Say something" he said to me I met his harsh gaze with my own. Out of the corner I could see Sola softly shake her head at me, pleading me not to make a scene.

"What would you like me to say corporal?" I asked him, resisting the urge to shove him away. He must have a major attitude issue but I guess I don't have much room to speak myself.

"Why did you join the military" was all he responded back, glaring down at me.

"To kill titans. Why else?" I said to him I looked over at Sola "But I plan to join the garrison" I told him. He looked like he was going to reply when suddenly Sola slapped her hand over my mouth.

"No! I mean, uh, she isn't! She..She wants to join the Scouting Regiment!" she someone how stuttered out. God damn it Sola, you need to keep your mouth shut, and I told you I wasn't going to leave you. All I could do was glare at her.

"Actually would love both of you to join the Regiment actually" Erwin said smiling at us. I yanked Sola's hand from my mouth.

"I'm sorry. I'm joining the Garrison" Was all I said before I walked out of the room.
