On top of a tower, a black hair girl overlooks a city with a soft smile and tired eyes
Girl: “I promise dad, before my term ends I will do whatever it takes to free us and our people from our persecution we face everyday. And to find him, even if he wishes I don’t look for him.”
???: Pieck, we’ve been called up for some work.
Pieck: Alright, let’s get going, Porco. Before Magath gets on on.
Porco: What are you doing?
Pieck: Nothing…Just overlooking my city.
Porco: Whatever, let’s go.
Porco walks away as Pieck glances at him, before taking one last look at the ocean in the distances
Pieck: “Soon, soon we will meet again, if you’re out there, Tomas.”
In a cabin Tomas sleeps as a loud knock goes off on his door
???: Get your ass to work! You’re running late!
Tomas slowly wakes up and grabs his glasses and puts them on as he makes his way towards the door and opens it seeing Shadis
Tomas: Oh, hey Keith.
Shadis: Get you’re ass to the aptitude training. We want medical assistants there. Now.
Tomas yawns and motions for Shadis
Shadis: You’re going like that?
Tomas: Yeah, all I need I need is a shirt and pants right? Let’s get moving.
Tomas exits the cabin and locks it as Shadis glares at him, before walking away
Shadis: Follow me you idiot.
Tomas: Whatever you wish, boss.
Shadis walks ahead of Tomas as Tomas looks a head and sees all the cadets
Tomas: Oh, great. Eren’s the only one with a damaged belt right?
Shadis: Yes. You’ll be on the sidelines watching. And you’ll also be staying until night at the medical station.
Tomas: That’s fine.
Shadis and Tomas reach the front as Tomas walks to the side as Shadis walks in front of the crowd
Shadis: Listen up! It’s aptitude test time! Those incapable of performing here will be sent to the fields!
Tomas: Hey, Shadis. Mind if I give it a try?
Shadis: Sure.
Tomas walks forward as Shadis hands him a belt and leans against his shoulder
Shadis: Have you even done this before?
Tomas: No, but I’ve watched the Scouts when I worked with them for a bit.
Shadis: Where the hell haven’t you been? You know what forget it.
Tomas puts on the belt
Shadis: Watch closely! Dr. Finger will show you fools how it’s done!
Tomas walks up to the center of a pillar as Shadis straps him up
Shadis: Ready?
Tomas: Go for it.
Shadis rolls the lever slowly lifting up Tomas as he steadies himself
Tomas: “What did Hange say? It’s about core strength? Or was it just balance?”
Tomas floats in the air hanging still
