AOT: Forget and Forgive

Surprise

I would like to say before I start that I am sorry if the measurements for the castle are off, I'm not very good at measurements.

Mystie's POV

"Were here," Levi said as the car slowed to a stop and he got out.

"Finally," I said, getting out after Leena. "It's been forever."

"You didn't enjoy our talk?" Armin asked climbing out of the car behind me.

"I'm not saying I didn't, I just, I don't like long car rides." I said, lying. Honestly, I didn't mind hour-long car rides, every summer I took a 4-hour car drive to a campsite.

As I took in the view in front of me, I wasn't impressed; it was a tall abandoned building that looks like it has been here since the dinosaur ages.

"This is your headquarters?" I asked, disgusted, if they regularly hung out here as headquarters, they needed an improvement; this place was worse then the other house.

"Oh, you're seeing the glamour, it hides the actual building, people would think it a little odd to have a castle out here." Armin said, walking inside, meanwhile me and Leena were standing next to the car. When Armin realized we hadn't been moving he turned around and walked back toward us. "If you focus, pretend your peeling off a layer of thin plastic you'll be able to see it, you'll have to do this anytime you want to see a glamour intill you get used to it."

At first I was hesitant, but Armin looked serious, and why would he lie, yeah, I just met him, and they kind of took us hostage, but still, I trusted him.

So, I did what he said, I focused, pretended like I was peeling off plastic wrapped around the building, and slowly, I saw it, a small castle where the building used to be. The castle was twice the height as the other building at the round corner and the castle itself was about a ½ a mile high. On top of the ceiling, in the middle is a smaller building about 10ft high. I was impressed, it was beautiful, I couldn't believe it.

"You see it now, don't you?" Armin asked.

"Yeah, it's beautiful, how do you guys do it?" I asked.

"We'll explain it all, but come on, let's go inside." He said and started walking inside, me and Leena following behind.

"Well, welcome to our headquarters." Armin said as we walked in the door.

"Armin, come, we have a lot to talk about with them, and a lot they want to know." Levi said from across the room, sitting on a couch, with Eren and Mikasa standing behind the couch, like they were ready to protect themselves or each other any second.

"Sorry, guys go on in, take a seat." Armin said as he gestured to the couches, and me and Leena sat down on the one opposite Levi. Armin sat next to Levi, sitting as far away from him as possible.

"Welcome to our world, girls." Levi said, as if we were a joke, like we were a mistake to be a part of this world. "I will have Armin explain exactly why you're here and why your special."

"Ok, so you guys know that you can see things others can not, well that's because you're a part of our world, not the one you've been living in. To clear any confusion, there are two worlds in one, the one you live in, Earth, or the Human World, and ours, which has no real name, but you can call it The Titan World.

"Our world has been hidden from yours ever since it started, which there are many legends on how it did, but no real one everyone believes. We have hidden our world because its not for everyone, only the strong, fastest, smartest, basically, best of your kind.

"Usually your born into this world, raised and at around 16 you start training and at 18 you go into the army, which is everyone except kids, care takers, and 'the weak ones we use for other jobs', not my words, I promise, who stay behind and help keep the army going.

"The care takers are the ones who take care and raise the children, sometimes that's the parent(s) or sometimes its not. The other ones are ones born in-between human and Titan Hunter, the ones that can see our world, but aren't made to fight, or the other way around, which is more rare."

"Ok, ok, if you are born into your life and you get raised like you why we aren't not in your world but can see it? Does this happen often?" I asked, stopping him.

"I don't know why you can see us, we were gonna ask you guys that, but you guys are obviously new to this. What we think is that your parents were kicked out, for some reason, and you were born with the abilities, it does happen, but not often, I've only seen it once, when I was little, but they came in when they were 5.

"But, usually, when someone is kicked out and they have children its usually without the abilities because one of your parents has Hunter blood and one doesn't and your Hunter blood is dormant because your Hunter parent is not used to it. We will find out why you are from the Human World but are a Hunter."

"Wow," I said, I had nothing else to say, it was ridiculous. He explained what this world is like, and I knew I shouldn't feel like this, but I wanted to be a part of it, I couldn't wait to be a part of it, it was weird.
