The next morning, Mikasa woke up to someone petting her hair.

"Mikasa dear, wake up," they said.

"It's the weekend Eren, just let me sleep," she mumbled.

Wait, Eren was never awake before her. She sat up quickly.

"Mom?" She asked. But no one was there. She must have still been dreaming.

She went down to the kitchen and made herself some toast. She went back up to her room and turned on the television.

She didn't have dance today, the company has a break the first few weeks of school.

She put on some jeans and a beige sweater. Wrapping Eren's scarf around her neck she resumed watching the Good Luck Charlie reruns.

"Kids! Come eat breakfast!" Mrs. Yeager called.

Mikasa quickly went to the top of the stairs and looked down.

No one was there.

"I'm going crazy," she thought to herself.

Then the doorbell rang.

"Maybe if I ignore it, they'll go away," Mikasa thought. It normally worked, just, not this time. The doorbell rang again.

"Eren! Get dressed, someone's at the door!" She called to him.

"If you ignore it they'll go away," he mumbled.

"I already tried," Mikasa sighed walking down the stairs.

She answered the door to find a police officer standing there.

"Is this the Yeager household?" He asked.

"Yes," Mikasa responded.

"We found this missing person, we would like you and the rest of your family members to come down to the station."

"Who is at the door?" Eren asked sleepily.

"Eren are you dressed?" Mikasa asked him.

"Yep," he rubbed his eyes.

"Is it just the two of you?" The cop questioned.

"Our dad's at work," Mikasa assured him.

"Give him a call, come out when you're done," he nodded.

"What was that about?" Eren asks.

"They found a missing person, it might be mom," Mikasa said.

"You aren't going to call dad, right?" He continued.

"Right. Let's go," she added as she pulled on her shoes.

Why would she go to the police? She knew where the house was.

Doubt started to fill her mind. What if the worse happened? What would they do?

[Are you okay?] Jean texted. [You didn't come to class yesterday.]

{I'm fine now.} she texted back. He's sweet, how he cared about her like that.

But now Mikasa and Eren had different problems. The two of them were sitting in the back of a police car, something Mikasa never thought she would have to do.

[Thats good.]

They got to the station and had to walk through a metal detector.

"Now what you see might be shocking, so be warned," the cop told them.

"Shocking?" Mikasa thought.

Eren looked at her. They were both worried. They walked into a room, there on a bed in the middle of it was there mom.

Mikasa gasped. Eren clenched his fists. She was hovered in blood, and she had her muscle showing on her left arm.

"Mom?" Eren questioned.

Mrs.Yeager turned her head to the side and opened her right eye, her left had been swollen shut.

"I'm glad I get to see you kids again," she mumbled.

The sirens of an ambulance drew near, and they echoed in Mikasa's head.

This is just like before.

Mikasa fell to the ground.

[Are you okay?]
