(Y/N), petty thief.
"Eren. Wake up."

I lightly shook Eren's broad shoulder as he clumsily sat up from his feral position. Sleeping on the streets is... interesting... not to mention I've arranged to betray Eren later today... I feel evil for ruining his youthful life.

"Ugh. Forgive me, I'm awake."

I smiled gently, extending my hand out for Eren to grab, he gratefully took my palm as I pulled him to his feet.

"Lets go. We have work to do."

Eren nodded his head with a dazed smile as we began to leave our small campfire hidden behind the sewers. After a couple of minutes, a familiar cobblestone path leading to the morning stalls proved hopeful.

"Look... guard patrols."

Heavily armoured guards shaking a homeless man and roughly emptying his pockets meant only one thing: Prince Levi is searching for his ruby.

"The guards will see us... where should we go?"

I turned my eyes back to the dark alleys, nodding my head in approval. Behind the streets should keep us hidden...

"We'll use alleys to move around undetected."

Eren hummed in approval, swiftly turning around as we headed deep within the dangerous streets riddled with disease and homeless peasants.

Prince Levi's alleyways smelt strongly of alcohol and poverty as I quickly spotted a homely looking bar - a small sign informed me of the name: 'For the Glory Bar.'

Interesting... I'll visit later... as we passed the bar our footsteps echoed down the dark paths. Loud shouting and strong knocking quickly gained my attention. Guards... the Prince is searching jewellery shops... we don't have much time.

"I know another place."

Eren and I quickly began to quicken our pace, making another sharp left down the deepening alleys. The wind felt a lot colder today as dark clouds circled above - hinting at rainfall. A right turn revealed a small, yet risky jewellery shop - run by an acquaintance of mine.

Erwin Smith.

The shop had vainly been named after himself: 'Erwin's Gold.' A few browsers could be seen inside, admiring diamonds and emeralds on display. All of them stolen.

"Expensive..."

Eren muttered as we both gave ourselves a brief nod of encouragement, slipping our childlike, yet oddly creepy masks on. I gently opened the door as a little bell chimed above us.

"Welcome~"

A man with blond hair and strong defined eyebrows looked up from his newspaper.

"Is this a robbery? I've just had guards patrol my shop - one yell from me and they'll come running."

I chuckled lightly at Erwin's empty threats, he is well known for handing stolen goods, but the guards have no evidence - so he hadn't been charged. Not yet at least...
