Most of the cadets of the 104th trainee squad participate in the only non-graded activity - hand to hand combat. There were those like Kaminari, who sometimes decided to just watch them throw each other around. 'It's not like we can fight a titan with hand to hand combat in the first place.'

Kaminari observed Connie and Sasha pretending to be ninjas, barely holding back her laughs at their expressions. Annie was walking around aimlessly, she didn't really need to practice. And Reiner and Eren were actually practicing not too far away. She approaches the last pair as her boredom grew. "Hey guys, how's it going?"

Reiner offered the girl a rare smile, as he lowered his fists. "It's good Kaminari. Hey Eren, why don't you tell her what you were just saying?"

Eren's eyes widen slightly but complies. He was sure Kaminari would agree with him anyway. "I was just saying to Reiner, how this training doesn't make sense. We can't fight titans with this ."

The blonde nodded in agreement and crossed her arms. "Well you're not wrong but sometimes it's the only choice. So many things could happen and sometimes your our worst enemy won't be a titan." Her voice was eerily cold for Reiner and Eren's liking. "The danger could come from your friends, comrades or people you've never met before."

Reiner stares at the girl, gulping as crossed his arms in front of him. "She'd right Eren, and as a soldier we have to be prepared for anything. Artillery isn't always the answer. Soldiers have to be ready for everything, look." He nodded in the direction of a grumpy Annie.

Eren appeared confused as Kaminari found herself a nice spot to sit. "Go on, Reiner. What's the worst that could happen?" She asks, smugly. The smirk on her face told Eren there was more to Annie, than a brooding loner.

Reiner sucked in a shaky breath as he approached Annie. "Commander not beat you up enough? Keep going like that and you'll be as flat as the ground you walk on."

Kamianri hummed approvingly and turned to Eren. "This is gonna be a quick lesson so pay attention. It'll be over in a blink of an eye."

Annie glared fiercely at Reiner, who turns to Eren somewhat cheerfully. He was glad to hand over the feisty girl. "Now go get her." He shoved Eren in the girl's direction, chuckling as he sat beside Kaminari.

"He's going to be squashed like a bug." She said, crossing her legs. "I know, Kami but he's gotta learn some things the hard way." Reiner replied, wrapping an arm around her waist.

The blonde's emerald eyes glisten in amusement as she leans into his embrace. "So you do care about what happens to Jaeger? Good on you."

The pair watched as Eren charged at Annie, who easily side stepped and then tripped him. "Are we done yet?" She was clearly bored, but Reiner's shook his head. "Not just yet. Take up the dagger."

Annie threw him an annoyed glance and once again Eren charges at her. She close lined his chest with her forearm and then kicked Eren's feet out of him in one fluid movement. It was satisfying to watch.

Eren lands with a loud thud, gasping as the air was knocked out of him. With a cold expression Annie turned to Reiner, "so, are you ready to take me on?" He stutters and peered at Kaminari nervously. She wasn't going to help him and instead gave him a pat on the back. "Go get her, tiger."

Kaminari rested her chin on her palm, amused when the exact same thing happened with Reiner as he joined Eren for a floor party. Annie turned to Kaminari, giving her a curt nod before moving on.

Eren's mouth was agape as Annie left. "How on earth didn't she beat your ass?!" Kaminari's emerald eyes sparkle in amusement at the two boys dusting themselves off. "We actually practiced together earlier and I beat her fair and square."

Eren's eyes widen in disbelief. Surely there's no way he missed that. "What?! N-no way!"

Kaminari threw him an annoyed look, "wanna try me, Jaeger?"
The said boy shook his head furiously.

That was one line he preferred not to cross.
