Annie's POV
It's been a few weeks since Phoenix left,our table just isn't the same and so is training,there are a lot of fights and I never realized how many people hated Phoenix,the number of people joining the scouts have decreased since she left,I wish she was still-
"I'm glad Phoenix is gone,she was such an idiotic show-off,the Titans should have eaten her" Someone said,that was it! I slammed my hands down on the table and stood up,I got to the person who had the guts to insult my sister like that,I held the person up by his collar and the face right there was none other than Bertholdt
"YOU DAMNED BASTARD!!!" I punched him straight on the face and growled,this was the guy Phoenix liked and he's insulted her "You think just because your the colossal Titan you can insult Phoenix like that" I muttered so only he could hear,he gulped at my scary expression and he said "I-I u-uh I uhhh" This time I kneed him where the sun doesn't shine and I released him,he fell down holding it and saying "Why did she have to aim for there" I glared at him,if looks could kill he would be dead "Next time I won't go easy" I ran off with tears forming in my eyes and one by one they dropped,even as I reached our empty cabin the tears became a river and I began remembering the day she told us
~Flashback~
"Hey Girls!" Phoenix called out from her bed,we climbed up and sat in a circle "You'll never guess what!" She said excitedly "What?!" We were all eager to know "I like Bertholdt!!" She announced with a wide smile and we squealed "We knew you'd eventually find someone!!" Christa said and hugged followed by everyone else "Also Annie,I heard Armin likes you back!" She said and I punched her shoulder "Phoenix" I whined like a little girl
"Sasha you and Connie are perfect
Christa you and Marco are a total match
Ymir you and Reiner are like the perfect match!!"
She fangirled and we all whined "Phoenix!" "Okay,sorry but I expect to get an invitation to you guys weddings " "So do we!" We started giggling uncontrollably until we were crying and collapsed
~End of Flashback~
I sad sigh escaped lips as I wiped away my tears "Phoenix I hope your alright"Phoenix's POV
I sighed and stared at the sky,I left for the scouts a few weeks ago and a part of me has been missing,I miss my "sisters" a lot and I have to wait three full years until I can see them,I probably won't see Annie and that just adds more pain.I was knocked out of my thoughts by the familiar voice of Levi
"What do you want?" I asked,with a harsh tone in my voice
"Your needed at the boardroom right now" He said with the same harsh tone
I sighed again and followed Levi,when we got there I was greeted by a full room,Hanji gestured for me sit,I did
"Phoenix we will be going on a small expedition in a few days,we would like to ask if you would accompany us" Commander Ervin said "Yes sir!" I said without a second thought "But who else will be coming?" I asked "Hanji,Petra and Levi" He answered me "Can I go now?" I asked "Sure" I got up from my seat and took off.I laid down on the soft grass and stared at the sky "I wonder how Annie's doing
Someone's POV
I watched the Titans silently from a high tree,I would feed them soon enough but not now,I spotted two people on the floor and immediately jumped down to meet them,I bowed when I saw them "Master Reiner,Master Bertholdt" I greeted them in a formal way "Is everything going well?" Master Reiner asked "Yes Sir,I'm bringing the Titans in just like you asked" I replied "The three years time Master Bertholdt gave me is enough time to gather a lot" "You have done well,Cole,you can leave" Master Bertholdt said and rushed away to continue my job
"The young shifter is doing well Reiner"
"Yes he is,far better than I expected"
I heard them say
I swear I'll make them proud
