"Bert, what the hell are you doing!?" Annie scowled as she grasped onto Bert's collar, shaking him to make sure he was still sane. Without thinking, Bert shoved the syringe into Annie's neck area, pushing the plunger to inject the substance inside of her. 

"You bastard! What are you trying to do!?" Annie roughly shoved Bert against the wall and backed away, feeling the liquid spread. She couldn't do anything. The serum will definitely corrupt her if she can't find the serum.

"I-I'm sorry Annie!" Bert cowered in fear as Annie starts to feel dizzy, unable to maintain balance on her two feet. She leans against the counter, clawing at her neck yet there was no time to stop it from spreading. 

"What have you done, you idiot!?" Annie yelled as she slams her fist hard against the counter. 

Bert glanced at Levi for a brief moment before he hesitantly stands up on his own.

"Something that I should have done years ago!!" 

Bert lunged towards Annie, landing a hit below her jaw. In a swift movement, she was knocked out cold to the ground, allowing the substance to flow within her body. Bert rushed to release Levi from the clutches of the leather belts. 

"What are you doing? Are you an idiot?" Levi asked.

"I-I don't know what I'm doing but I just have to go along with it! Just do whatever you can and get the hell out of here!" Bert explained.

"What about you?" Levi jumped out of bed, feeling his wrists and arms.

"I-I'll try to buy you some time and do something about the boss and...." Bert gave the unconscious Annie a sympathetic look before Levi rests a hand on the tall man's shoulder.

"You're not gonna do that. You're coming with me, you idiot." Levi demanded as he drags BVert out of the room, leaving Annie.

"B-But--!"

"If we want the same thing, we're gonna have to team up. Do you understand?" Levi scolded him.

Bert took a moment to think before he obediently nods as tears fall from his cheeks. He tried to wipe them away however they kept falling.

"I want this to end." Bert commented.

"Then let's go. We gotta find Eren. How can we get there from here?" Levi rushed him.

"I-It's this way...." Bert made a gesture to have Levi follow him from behind as they sprinted down the quiet empty hallways.

"It was my plan to have Levi and Eren kidnapped...."


Erwin silently informs Hanji as they watched you sleep from across the room.

"W-What do you mean?"

"Levi was willing to do this alone. We had to make sure that Eren doesn't know so that it'd look real. Levi will lead us to their hideout. That way, it gives them an easy access inside. Levi says that he'll try to infiltrate their hideout for a cure." The tall blonde explained.

"But how will we know? Levi can't leave us any bread crumbs so we can follow his tracks."

"I told him to make a specific symbol on the trees. If we continue to find those symbols that he carved, we will definitely be able to reach them." Erwin spoke.

"What does the symbol even look like?" Hanji asked.

"It's just a slash mark that is slanted upwards. You'll know it when we get to the forest.... Levi made sure to leave his cape on a tree that will lead us to the symbols that he's been carving." Erwin informed.

"Are you going to say anything about it to... Y'know.. Her?" Hanji cautiously points at your sleeping form as Erwin slightly shakes his head with a smile.

"No. She can't ever know. Even Levi doesn't want her to know because....."

"What? What's wrong?"

"I doubt Levi and Eren can make it out alive."

Eren constantly struggled to escape from the table yet it only caused him anxiety and deep stress. He finally stops and stares into the light, eventually closing his eyes. 

"I won't stop... I will definitely get out of here. I'm gonna kill that bastard." He calmly told himself.
