A day had passed ever since the Tribunal case for Eren Yeager. He, alongside Y/N which he was surprised was coming along had traveled with him and a few others outside of Trost, heading to the former Scout Headquarters. They were on horse back, it was Eren and Y/N first time riding on horseback, especially since they had to choose and name their horses. H/N was pretty gentle, but always sorted... or sneered at Y/N for some odd reason, but it wasn't concerning whatsoever.

"So where exactly are we headed?" Eren asked in curiosity as he was wearing a scout cloak with the hood on as so were the others, even Y/N as well as he rode next to Eren on his right.

"The old Survey Corps HQ. Originally it was an old castle remodeled. So it certainly looks imposing for the most part. But, being so far from the river and walls, it ended up being useless for the Survey Corps. It was established after the Survey Corps formation, but I never imagined this giant ornament would end up as the perfect place to hide you." Oruo, a member of the Levi Squad explained.

Eren looks back and just sees Levi eying him hard as Eren immediately turned away looking forward. Y/N was about to say something until Oruo got close to Eren's horse.
"Now don't get cocky new kid, especially you."
Oruo said not only to Eren but to Y/N as well who gave him a subtly confused glance.

"I don't care if you're a Titan, or if Captain Levi personally brought you onto this squad because of your rumored solo Titan kill count and skills. I wouldn't believe that he would spend the time recruiting brats like you both on—AUGHHHH!"
His horse took a misstep as Oruo ended up biting down on his tongue, blood spewing out of it before just dripping, leaving Oruo to groan in pain.

"Tsk. Eren. If you're also wondering why I'm here with you, I happened to assist Captain Levi in eliminating all the remaining titans that were trapped within Trost after you were taken to the top of the wall. Commander Pyxis, and even Rico vouched about my capabilities as a soldier, no offense to showing off, but I guess I gained the kind of attention I never thought I would." Y/N explained, reassuring Eren why he was here with him.

"Oh, that explains why there lesser titans when I was a Titan for the first time..."

"You better not tell me you were conscious the entire time and enjoyed beating those titans to a pulp with your bare Titan hands." Y/N smirked a little which irked Eren.

"Shut up. It all felt like a dream... I did enjoy it though." Eren muttered the last part to himself, but Y/N heard as he chuckled and pats him on the back.

"Hey, you wanted to always eradicate the titans and you did, but boy you being a titan kinda contradicts the point you made. Still, don't try anything stupid when you go Titan mode on people, because if you do, I'd probably have to dismember you until you're the shape of a deformed potato." He whispered to Eren who shivered in fear of what his adopted older brother could do to him.

"Oi. Quit talking like children in school, your brats." Levi said from behind as they all for the next hour traveled in absolute silence.

After an hour, they arrived to the castle and got off their horses. A ginger head girl, Petra, was scolding Oruo about biting his tongue, his act was trying to scare both Eren and Y/N, but clearly it was the opposite of that.
