Third Person- AT SCOUT REGIMENT HQ

After the events of the day prior, Kaminari had disappeared with Levi and Erwin, not to be seen again until this morning.

Like normal she was clean and polished in her normal scouts attire with her long blonde tresses swaying loosely in the light breeze and a cup of coffee in hand.

She, Gunther and Eld drink cups of coffee outside of the Scout's Old Headquarters on a fairly sunny day. Kaminari had been uncharacteristically quiet since she arrived back, but all could see the ever lingering anger in her body language and hostile green eyes.

With a sigh Kaminari begins pulling her long hair into a French braid as Gunther's eyes flicker to her before looking straight forward once again. "After that whole inspection they didn't turn up anyone who used there own 3DMG gear without permission. So, who could of done it?" He notices how the Kaminari, his little spit fire's, grip tightens around the mug now in her hands as she takes what he assumes to be a calming sip.

Eld spares Gunther an irritated glance. "Beats me and right now I'm more concerned with the recruitment drive tonight. How many cadets are crazy enough to join the regiment witht the highest casualty rates?"

Kaminari brushes a hand over her braid with a snort. "You'd be surprised," she mutters. Gunther sends her a small smile, that being the first thing she'd said all day, before turning his gaze on Eren questionably, "Hey Eren! You know if anyone in your class is going to join us?"

Eren continues to feed the chestnut horses as he responds, "yeah there are a few... Or at least there were. I'm not so sure now." He replies honestly as the sound of hooves approaching catches his attention.

"FALL IN!"

Gunther and Eld scramble, throwing their cups down and salute the incoming Captain, whilst Kaminari remains seated and finishes her coffee. Levi brings his steed to a halt in front of the Gunther and Eld, as Eren rushes to mimic their actions. "Make ready people, we're going on patrol."

"Good morning Captain! Reporting for duty." Eren salutes valiantly, turning as he expects Kaminari to follow his lead but the blonde just sends Levi a lazy wave. "Short stack." Levi ignores her jab at his height, knowing fully well that it's also insulting her before turning his attention back to Jaeger. "Eren you will stay within ten meters of me at all times. The only reason you're out of your cell is because I'm keeping an eye on you. Understood?"

"Yes Sir." He responds as Levi turns his towards his little blonde, "Kaminari you are to go to the recruitment drive. I need eyes and ears to see and hear what Erwin doesn't." Kaminari sends him a look of mock disbelief, "you just didn't want to go and it was either you or me wasn't it?"

His mouth quirks a smile before flatlining as he turns his horse around. "Yes, now the rest of you let's ride."

Kaminari watches the four mount their horses and disappear off for patrol, none of them turning back to see the frustration pinching her face as she mutters. "He does this every year. Tch. Bastard." She saddles up her ebony coated mare before making her way to where the recruitment drive would be occurring.

Time skip

She had arrived well before the sun had even set, well before Petra, Oluo and the others had even departed for this event. But now as evening had fallen, she remains grounded in place beside Erwin, in front of the possible recruits. She had her scouts cloak on, the hood obscuring the cadet's view of her face and the only thing they could see was the dancing flames being reflected in her eyes.
