Readers POV~
The Whipper threw #400 and I both into the small cell roughly. I curled up in a ball with my knees up to my chest as the dirty man went out to get something. #400 crawled up to me. "I am so sorry (y/n). I didn't mean to get yo-" "what did you call me?""huh?" i looked up from my knees at him in his dark grey eyes"you called me (y/n), why?" He looked in my (e/c) eyes while smiling, this made me feel weird in stomach and my face to heat up."I thought it suited you. Its really cute don't ya think?" he whispered.He put an arm around my back and pulled me into his chest. He was tall probably because he was one of the older kids. When he pulled me into his chest i felt warm inside and it confused me so much i didn't know what to do so i did the only thing i could do. I cried he pulled me up from the cold concrete into his warm lap and rocked me back and forth.
It felt like nothing i ever felt. Everything i have ever experienced was dull and cold but this made me feel warm inside and i liked it."#400 i feel weird inside" i sniffled out"please (y/n) call me Max okay? And what you feel is something they never gave us." he whispered softly"And whats that" i said into his chest."(y/n) its called 'Love'" 'Love?' i said it again in my head just to remember it."I like love" I said through my sniffles. Max was about to say something else but was interrupted by a slight click that echoed through the room.
The mahogany door opened to reveal a tall man in grey clothes."Wow what a lucky day. Two little toys to play with" the scary man said before throwing a fit of laughter."Well lets get started shall we?""Please don't hurt her she has nothing to do with the trouble"Max begged getting up from our position and putting me behind him."Sorry #400 but that is not my call. My job is to make sure you learn from your mistakes" He walked over to a steel table and put and needle into a gun they use for the kids that disobey in the terminal ( A/N the terminal is the place where all the workers of the village go for quota request and drop offs along with trade)
He aimed the gun at Max and a split second later he was lying on the ground with the needle sticking out of his arm. I was about to scream his name but felt a pain in my wet cheeks. I started feeling dizzy and feel to the cold floor with the room spinning. The last thing i see was the laughing man with a twisted smile. After that it was complete darkness.
I opened my eyes and saw nothing but void. I stood up and started walking in a random direction. I felt nothing, smelled nothing, heard nothing, and saw nothing. Was this my fear? Nothing. I thought of all the things that scared me. Then it hit me like a rock. I was alone. I ran around looking for something, SOMEONE. Just anything. I felt tears swell up in my eyes and stopped. I fell to my knees and covered my eyes with my small dirty hands.
In an instant i sprung back to the real world. I looked around the room and saw i was still in the cell but Max was no where to be seen. Everything in the room was trashed and the cell door was slightly opened. I lifted myself from the ground and went out the door all the way down the hallway. I ekpt walking seeing no one was here. I did see a lot of whippers on the way back to the main work station. They looked like they were sleeping but i didn't see their chest moving i guess they died.

I walked everywhere and saw no one. No one at all they were either dead or gone. This scared me. They left me. They took everyone else but left me. why? Why? Why.. why....why......why.......WHY ....WHY WHY WHYWHYWHY! I cut my hand with a sharp rock and wrote it all over the stone walls until i couldn't stand anymore. "THATS IT I'M TIRED OF CRYING"I yelled out loud. I wiped my eyes and ran to terminal.
When i got their i went into the booth for drop offs. I found a leather bag with books, maps, pencils, a compass, and a tiny pair of binoculars in it. This booth belonged to the masters that went out to get new 'recruits'. I went to my 'room' and got the only belongings i had. My birth papers and a shiny purple crystal i found while mining."From this day on i will NOT take anyones orders except my own. I will not depend on anyone for anything because i will just get hurt. I am not #402 I AM (Y/N). THE GIRL WHO SURVIVED CELL! I WILL KEEP MY FREEDOM FROM THIS DAY ON!" with that little speech i ran out of the mines and into the sunlight.
I explored all over from oceans to deserts until...

Readers POV~
"And that is how i ended up here"I ended my story. Erwin's eyes looked glassy while Hanji was crying on my shoulder. I looked down at my lap while handing my handkerchief to Hanji.I wanted out of here ASAP."So can i have my belongings back so i can be on my way...please"i asked still looking down at my lap."No" i looked up at Erwin with fury in my eyes."Why not!?" " You can have your belongings back but you can't leave". I stood up without thinking and slapped Erwin as hard as i could.He fell out of his seat and on to the hard wood floors. I was about to go bat shit crazy on this man but both Hanji and Levi were holding me back."WHY can't i leave!""Because you entered our territory and there fore cannot leave without a trial."
I calmed myself down not wanting to make any enemies." Can i at least have my stuff back its the only things i have left."Erwin nodded while standing up. He had a red hand print on his pale face right on the middle of his cheek.
He escorted me to another office that was very organized and clean office."I'm in love"I said aloud without thinking.Ever since i got out of that hell hole i loved everything that was clean especially people."I was just joking earlier but i guess we do have another Levi."Hanji exclaimed while looking to Levi.Levi just tched and went behind the neatly organized desk and pulling out a box from underneath. He opened the box carefully. I stepped forward and pulled out my leather bag holding it to my chest. I looked in the box again and pulled out my belt pouch and clipped it back to my pants. I looked again and found my observation book along with the charcoal pencil. I opened the black book to check and make sure everything was okay. I went to the page of my first picture. It was a drawing of Max, I drew it by memory. I hugged the book to my chest then put it in my bag. The last thing was the blades i got from a thief i helped out in an alley in Ibiza. They all had different carvings in them along with rubies, sapphires, and my favorite one had an amethyst shaped into a flower.
"Umm if you don't mind me asking but what is in that bag that you love so much" Hanji asked tapping on my shoulder." I turned around to face the trio and summarized my answer in 2 words."My Life."
