(Levi's POV)

While trying to get the image of Eren out of my mind, we started our investigation. Things have gotten awkward since the incident. That's going to make things more difficult, as long as Eren is going to keep this up.

"Are you sure you know what you are doing?" I decided to ask him since he had been staring at the paper in front of him for almost twenty minutes now. The fact that it was blank made things even more unnerving.

"Yeah, I was just thinking."

"About?" I asked. He should know that right now we have to focus on the investigation.

"Hmm, the demons, and what they want from me. I mean, how do they expect to win when I want nothing to do with them?"

"You see, that's where their deception comes into play." Said the dumbass angel that appeared in the room. "Now Levi I thought I told you and your friend specifically not to let him get stronger. This is going to be harder than it should have been." He shook his head as though he was just slightly disappointed.

"Well maybe your best choice would to be to leave us alone. I mean you still mustn't have orders to kill him yet otherwise they would have sent someone more prepared to fight than you." I responded inspecting him. He had no weapons that I could see.

"Ah you see though; I know better than them, and even if it gets me in a little bit of trouble, I plan on taking care of the problem." The angel lunged at Eren, but I got between them before anything could happen. If Eren tried to defend himself the angel could change the situation to make it seem like Eren attack him; which would cause the fury of heaven to rain down on us.

"Don't you think you are being a little rash?" I asked to get the angel's attention.

"Get out of my way." He warned. Which didn't seem very threatening saying the kid looked twelve. "Or you will be killed as well."

"What the hell are you doing Zach?" Someone else popped up into the room. "If you were smarter I wouldn't have to watch you like the kid you are." The other looked like his mother. I couldn't help but chuckle at the thought. "We should take him with us." She turned her attention to me.

"What are we going to do with him?" The one I'm guessing is called Zach, from his buddy calling him that, asked.

"Don't ask questions. Just do as I tell you." She ordered. The boy looked back at me and grabbed me before I could get away.

(Eren's POV)

Instantly after the angel touched Levi they both vanished. The other angel that stayed behind walked up to me. If looks could kill I would be dead ten times over by now.

"The only way to get him back is to get past us." She said and vanished as well. What does she mean? Where are the keeping Levi? What is it with those angels? I started pacing. What do I do? What do I do? Wait, Hanji will know! I searched for Levi's phone; thankfully he didn't have it on him when the angels took him. The unfortunate part was that all of his contacts didn't have normal names, but I quickly recognized Eyebrows. After a few rings Erwin picked up.

"Can I talk to Hanji?" I asked quickly. Erwin sighed and almost handed off the phone until he took a quick intake of breath.

"What are you doing with Levi's phone?"

"Never mind that. Just give the phone to Hanji." I was close to throwing the phone across the room in frustration.

"Hello? Eren?" I heard a female's voice.

"Hanji the angels took Levi. I don't know what to do; I don't know where he could be, and I think they are using him to get to me somehow. I don't know what to do." I blurted out quickly. Somehow Hanji was able to understand what I was saying. If I was in her situation I wouldn't be able to get one word from that.
