MEETING...

"You wanted to see me?" Mike said, cutting to the chase, as he went into Erwin smiths office. The blonde commander was doing his tactical stuff, thinking of new plans, to ambush and help them defeat titans in the future. Mike couldn't do anything like that. The most impressive thing about erwin smith, he thought, was Erwin's mind.

"Yes. I wanted to give you a Cadet. Her name is Sakura Schnee."

"Schnee?" Mike lifted an eyebrow, he had heard Erwin saying something about a schnee before, last year. Erwin looked to mike, non-smiling. He rested his chin on his palm, the elbow on the wood to the right of the map - or plan - he was working on, careful not to rip the paper, "The schnee family are from wall Sina, and are one of the wealthiest families."

"so," Mike blinked, "Your giving me a little princess to babysit?"

Erwin gave mike an apologetic smile, "I was hoping you would scare some sense into her?"

Mike raised an eyebrow. "Levi would Succeed in that very quickly, you know."

"Levi would eat the girl whole, that's why I'm not assigning her to his team," Erwin's mouth twitched into a small smile, "Considering the girl is Rich, and considering levi's strange...obsession with cleanliness -"

"ah, I get it." Mike gave a nod, "Right, I'll tackle it."

"Thank you, Mike."

she sighed, eating the last of her apple. She didn't sit with anyone else in one of the tables, instead she stood, unnoticed, by a wall, leaning on it so her legs wouldn't be too tired. Sakura didn't watch anyone else, but instead was lost in her own thoughts. Until a figure stood in front of her.

"What are you doing here, Cherry blossom?" Hisses sharp eyed Alizia, "This isn't for a toddler, you know? This place has real soldiers."

"Why are you here, then?" Sakura felt triumphant at the blushed cheeks of Alizia, before letting the other respond, she turned and walked away. When she was out of sight of everyone else, she felt a tug on her long, Black pigtail. She with held a yelp, and turned to face Alizia. She took a deep breath to keep under control.

"You shouldn't be here, Schnee! Who would want you?"

"I don't care -"

"I do!" Sakura was stunned, and for a second She thought -hoped- Alicia would apologize for all the bullying she has done to Sakura, but fat chance. "I'll totally lose focus with you tumbling around in the air! With you around, someone will get killed, because your so damn helpless!"

Sakura grit her teeth, glaring into the Brown eyes of Alizia, then someone spoke. "Will you two quit bickering , it's childish." Sakura turned around to see a tall man with fair hair - not commander erwin, who was totally blond, Sakura noted - and Alizia swooshed off , her long red locks swaying behind her as she walked.

Sakura looked to the man, blinking her wide eyes.

"what's your name?"

"S-Sakura Schnee, sir." She stiffened, Afraid of the tall giant. He looked two metres tall to her, but that was because she was so short: 4'10". "Your in my Squad, then." He said, And she blinked, "Really?"

"yes. Come on." he turned and began walking to where everyone else was, and Sakura felt scared. She followed obediently.

Mike was on his way to the mess hall to get something to eat, since it was lunchtime. He came across two Cadets, one Amazingly short and the other Also quite short, but not as short. The two seemed to be arguing about something - he supposed they were rivals. "Would you two stop bickering," He spoke when he was close enough, "It's childish." .

Without one acknowledgement to him, the Taller girl walked off dramatically. he expected her to be Sakura Schnee, The way she walked as if she was the most important human being on the planet showed she was very full of herself.

The other girl hadn't moved. he looked at her. She was Very interesting, and kind of cute. Her eyes were wide, with thick eyelashes - her hair was long and straight, and also quite thick. she had it done it two high pig-tails. Her eyes were the palest blue he'd ever seen, like layers of thin glass, and she was very pale. "What's your name?"

"Sakura Schnee, Sir!" 

This was the girl he was meant to Babysit? he frowned very slightly, He expected her to be more princess-like, pampered and maybe complaining about the uniform not having enough frills, but here she was, a mousy little girl who looked quite terrified of him. "Your in my squad then,"

"Really!?"

"Yes." He moved infront of her, and when he noticed her hesitation, he looked over his shoulder at her, "come on." and then she followed behind, half running to keep up with his Long stride.

ah, that's 820 words. yay me. XD
So, before you go and think "This is just going to be about mike and some kid making out and snuggling all the time" - NO!
NO NO.
it isn't just gonna be a straightaway romance, that's not normal or even like real-life! (its an anime, I know! sometimes anime couples just...POOF and they're there!) They're going to bond, through the plot (that is quite ridiculous) and its going to just be a slow thing. so yah.
Xx Ciao xX
