Armin was lying in his hospital bed. Moveless and white as a ghost. Mikasa sat besides his bed looking at his pale white face, just hoping that her best friend would wake up. She and Armin knew each other for years. She and Eren saved Armin and than she and Armin hold back the outraging Eren. He had always been there, with his books and his brilliant mind. "Don't you dare die on me." she whispered.

Jean sat beside Karens bed in her hospital room as Mikasa went in.
"Hey."
"Hey."
"Has Eren left his room ?", Jean asked.
"No. He locked himself up and refuses to let anyone in."
"He acts like Karen."
"But Karen stopped acting like that after some days. Eren's hiding himself for one week now. At least we know he eats, but we have to give it to him trough the window !"
"Why is he doing this ?"
"He feels guilty for Armin's and mine injuries." Mikasas hand slid to her neck, touching the heeling wounds.
Jean looked at her. "Have you tried to talk to him yet ?"
"No, but I will go now. I just wanted to see how you and Karen are. I didn't know she was injured."
"She is a warrior. She will make it."
Mikasa smiled. "You love her."
"Yes, I do."
"You always had a thing for black hair."
"Well that could be true."
"That is true !"
"Yeah yeah, just go and look for the suicidal maniac."

Mikasa knocked on Erens door.
"Eren it's me, Mikasa."
"..."
"Eren let me in."
"..."
"Are you going to sit in there forever ? Not even talking to your sister ?"
Slowly the door openeded.
Mikasa adjusted her scarf so it hid the ugly wounds on her neck. Eren didn't need to see this.
She walked into the room.
"Why are you hiding ?"
He stood in the middle if the room.
"Armin and you got injured."
"Well, I am standing right before you."
"But Armin is not."
"Yes, but..."
"Mikasa", he grabbed her shoulders and the scarf flew down. As Mikasa turned her back to Eren in order to put it up, she heard him gasps.
"Mikasa, what are these on your neck ?!"
Oh shit. She tried to hide the wounds with her hand but it was to late.
"Is your whole back looking like that ?"
"N...No. It's not..."
"Oh my god."
"Eren, it's..."
"It looks terrible , Mikasa. Don't tell me you are not injured when you have such wounds."
"It's just scratches Eren. Will you come with me to see Armin now ? Or will you leave him there ?"

Eren followed Mikasa through the hospital. But as they wanted to enter Armins room they were stopped by Ymir who was standing right before the door, holding a crying Christa.
"You two shouldn't go in there now."
"Why ?!" Mikasa asked while Erens face turned white.
"It's Armin." Christa whispered. "He..he.."
"HE WHAT ?!"
"He is dead."
