     Me and Mikasa, are the first to reach the Training Site. I see Shadis standing there, a cold look on his face, per usual, when he spots us his eyes seem to light up a little. I roll my eyes, as he walks over to us I spot the tree I 'killed', splints of wood are sticking out of the tree where I kicked it, dents are there where I punched it. "Cadet Hanson!! Are you listening?!" Shadis is towering over me a deadly glare, I look up at him, no fear evident on me. I can't feel any fear.

     "No, sir." I state softly, he growls, I snicker and pat him on the chest as I slide past him, swiping a wooden knife out of a makeshift bag he has slung over his shoulder. "What is this? I child's toy? We're not children Commander." I laugh out giving him an 'are you joking me' look. My short hair flying in the wind, I turn to Mikasa. "Lemme guess, you have to get the toy away from me." She nods and I remain quiet waiting for her to move. Suddenly I see a blur rush towards me, I move the knife behind me and put it in my left hand, then I put my hand out hooking onto Mikasa's side, I throw my arm down and she hits the ground, I smirk.

     That smirk fades when she twists so her feet are behind me, she kicks me forward and my grip faulters on the wooden knife. I feel her hand clasp around my wrist trying to grab the knife away, I clench down tightly on the fake knife, if I was correct Mikasa is behind me. Time seems to slow down as I peek over my shoulder, she has her left leg between my legs, and her right knee is close to the ground. There is two ways this can play out, I can yank my hand free and do a flip overhead, and risk getting yanked down by the head and letting go of the knife, or I can jump back on her, crushing her with what weight I have and not risk losing the knife. She looks up and I smirk giving her a mischievous glance, she looks shocked.

     Time starts up again, and I fall back onto Mikasa she falls onto the ground with a thud I roll off, my feet reaching over my head and touching the ground, I roll up yanking my hand away. "Never said I'd go easy." I tease, suddenly I'm knocked down to the ground the knife goes flying I squirm and finally get my feet to Mikasa's stomach, I kick her off then wince in pain as pressure was put on my swollen and bruised legs. I put my hands on the ground and push myself to my feet, but before I can go for the knife Mikasa lunges past me, grabbing the knife and summersaults to her feet, I groan and let out a sigh.

     "Good job, your turn." I give her a surprised look, so she does talk. I let my face go blank, I give Mikasa a cold stare. I get into a stance, and then change she couches down a little thinking that I am going to tackle her, that's where she makes her mistake, the hand with the knife is protecting her face, and her left hand is touching the ground barely. I grab her right wrist with my left hand and pull it down, I give her a hammer fist to the cheek and twist her hand around, she doesn't drop the knife though, so I kick her in the stomach and pull her harm out she drops the knife. I grab it and back flip away. She gets up panting, I give her a concerned look, then I shake my head. I can't allow myself to get close to her. My face turns stoic, and she nods in understanding.

     "How'd you learn to fight like that?!" Armin's voice calls.

     "Her sister, Mina Hanson." I start my way to the Commander. He's not to far so I listen to their conversation. "Mina is on the Special Operations Squad. Blake wants to join her sister one day, don't tell her I said this but Blake has a--" I turn around and charge at my blonde friend. My blood boiling. I take him to the ground and sock him in the face. His nose starts to bleed and I get off him.

     "Let's get one thing straight." I growl, fury dripping from my voice, I see some people stop sparring. "I like no one, I will get close to no one for their own safety! I am friends with no one. I will never put someone in my family's shoes! Never again! It's best if you stay away from me too Toni. I don't need you, I don't need anyone in my life! It will destroy me, and all of you. So stay the hell away from me. I don't want anyone else that I care about getting killed!!" I yell out, I cover my mouth as tears stream down my face. Toni looks pained. I run off to the Barracks, I just admitted that I cared for them, and I hurt my childhood friend. No he's not my friend! I curl up in the corner of my bed sobbing. I hear the door creak open and I don't look up. I hear four sets of footsteps. A hand rests on my back, it was a boy's, I look at the owner and see that it is Armin, he is next to me on my right, Mikasa is diagonal and right from me, Eren is next to Mikasa, and Toni is in front of me a cloth to his nose.

     "Even if you choose to not be our friends, we will be yours." Armin says patting my back comfortingly.

     "Act distant, that's okay. Just cover our backs when deemed necessary." Mikasa adds quietly.

     "We're not asking you to get close to us, just let us be there for you. And you be there for us." Eren chuckles out, I look at the three then at Toni.

     "You can be silent, I'll translate for you. But please never say that we aren't friends. You can act cold to us, we will understand, but don't worry us. It's okay if we die, we are in your heart always, just look to the sky we will be there listening. Plus on the bright side if we die we'll just see each other again." He says with a shrug everyone laughs but me. I look at them all, a feeling sparks that I haven't felt for years. The feeling of hope.

Whoo finished at 2:33 am shhh, I have a little bit of insomnia. I get at least 4-7 hours of sleep maybe less. Anyway thanks for reading this far I promise Levi will be here soon, but during that time there's fluff, sadness, happiness, and lots of conflict. Comment and tell me how you rice balls feel!!
