Wherever I Go

The Story of a Girl

"This world is cruel..."

This has been Mikasa's view, ever since that horrid day when she watched in shock as her parents were murdered right in front of her.

That's when her peaceful attitude changed.

If it wasn't for the reports made by the neighbors, who had heard a suspicious noise coming from the small house, the police would have never found 9 year old Mikasa. The two criminals were somehow killed, nobody knows who could have done it.

Human traffickers wanted her because of the blood that ran through her veins.

Mikasa was now of high value to these criminals.

Custody of Mikasa was granted to the closest family she had left, Levi, her older cousin.

He wasn't deemed high risk, because of his relatively unknown surname, his tendency to keep a low profile, and his terrifying strength.

He didn't mind taking care of her, but there was a problem. She would still be a target because she is and always will be an Ackerman.

When she turned 16, things got harder. It was the first time she had actually been attacked individually. She was leaving school when it happened. A man caught her by surprise when she was walking home, but luckily she was skilled when it comes to self defense. But then again, that was only one person, while there were many out there.

When she got home that day, Levi was pissed. Not at Mikasa, but at the world, for being horrible. He didn't want Mikasa in danger, because she was his responsibility.

That's when Levi decided she needed to be safe all the time; she needed a bodyguard.

She assured him that she could handle herself, but he had already decided that they would move to Shiganshina, where his friend Erwin lives and owns an apartment building. He would rent them an apartment and they would live there. Another plus is that the bodyguard he hired lived there too.

So, they moved into the apartment. It was nice, they each had their own bedroom, they had a living room, dining room, kitchen, and a balcony with a beautiful view of the city and the coast in the far distance.

Life was peaceful at the moment.

But Mikasa knew it wouldn't last long.
