Armin Arlert

As I wait for my best friend on the corner of the street by the docks these group of bullies come towards me. "Oh no..." I say quietly. I begin to stand as they start running towards me. "Armin?" I hear a soft voice call my name.

Bonnabel Ackerman

As I walked through the place like I do every 20 years I see someone I thought was dead. "Armin?" I call him coming past the corner. It's like the Armin I knew but, a child.

A kid walks up to him with a group following him and they push him to the wall. I step pass the corner and make myself a kid so it wouldn't be so bad if I fought them. "Hey!" I shout. "Get away from him!" I push the leader as it seems and he pushed me back. "Armin, cover your eyes." I say to him quietly. "Ok" he mumbles back.

As I terrify the children I smile and tell him it's ok now. I help him up and can't help but notice how adorable Armin is. I kiss his forehead and hugged him. "I missed you so much..." I almost started to cry.  He hugs me back and pats my back awkwardly. Then he kinda forces me off of him. I can see that he's he's blushing but thats fine.

"Um. I understand that you may miss me but, who are you? I haven't seen you, not once until today." He says. That's it. I start to wail, I sob violently and my heart crushes and falls into ashes once again. He gets flustered. "Oh no! I mean, um! I'm sorry! I didn't mean too!" He shouts incoherent things that I pay no mind to. I stand strait. "I knew coming here would hurt me..." I say to myself.  I brush invisible dirt off of my small shoulders. "It's fine." I say to him. "Its not like you would ever remember me ever.  It was a long time ago." I tell the boy.

His face goes back to its regular color. "Maybe if you tell me your name, I could remember you?" He suggests. I stifle out a laugh. "My name is Bonnabel. You can't tell anyone though." I smile. He smiles back. "Alright Bonnabel. I'll keep your secret." He smiles back adorably.

Oh Armin...

As I felt my husband calling my name I looked around the forest. It's no one here besides me, my demons, and our thoughts. But the strongest tingling feeling is drawing me towards the underground. So I start to fly towards the city. Making sure I don't get caught I land on top of a roof and look into the ally before I jump down. I run toward the underground entrance pushing the guards out of the way skipping steps running towards what I'm feeling. I take a left and I skip a few streets then I take a sharp turn the the left again only to reveal my dearest husband. The rest of my family, but I'm suspecting they won't know me either.  I quickly step in.  "Excuse me sir?" I say as I tap Erwin's shoulder. He quickly grabs my wrist and squeezes it. He moves me so he can see my face. I try to make myself seem dominant. I apologize Erwin.

I use my other hand and punch him square in the face. The impact knocking the air out of him. "Don't touch him." I quick the girl in the stomach and stomp her. The boy gets into a stance ready to fight, beads of sweat falling down his face. I just chuckle. I just knock him out by pressure point. I start to laugh like a madman until I feel a metallic cold inside of my neck. I touch it and and lifted my hand to my face.

Blood, I put my finger inside of my mouth. Oh how I missed that amazing metallic taste. I push the blade out of my neck sticking my finger through the hole. "Ha...HAHAHA!" I turn to meet one of my best friends, Erwin. "Ha, you thought. We are leaving now." I said to him. I went to break the locks of the handcuffs that held them to the hostage.  As I did Levi glared it me, I felt a little hurt but I realized it was only because he didn't remember.

I then realized by looking at jackets that they were with the survey corps. I smile, they don't even know they are avenging themselves. Before they can run I tap Erwin's chest. "Take us to your base, now." I demand.

He slowly thinks before taking us above the ground. Isabel looks at me with admiration, Farlen looks at me with fear, Levi. With distaste?

Oh my poor heart...
