Annie and Jean took deep breaths. They watched as the competitors went one, by one.
Annie and Jean then started to move. They moved from the building, and out into light.
The crowd cheered like lions, or running Titans. People thrown roses at them.
"This is a fantastic parade." One of the spokesmen said. "I just love the outfits and - what in the world?"
Annie noticed the crowd gotten louder, and louder. She remembered about the thirty seconds mark.
Turning her head, she found Jean and flames on his back, as if they were wings.
"Uh...Jean." Annie said. Jean looked at her, then at his back that was on fire.
"Look at your back." He said. Annie looked and found crystal sparks on her back as well, creating wings.
'It's not real, it just shows your personality.'
Annie remembered Mo saying. Their personality...
Jean, Wings of Freedom.
Annie, Female Titan.Back in town, they watched as they went through the parade.
"Now that's, what I call a show." The other spokesman said.
The Survey Corps watched as they trolled along. And as Annie and Jean smiled and waved.
Then Jean grabbed Annie's hand. Annie looked at him. They spoke, then raised their hands up high. The crowd roared much louder.
Back there, Annie caught a beautiful rose and blew a kiss, to the side the person thrown the rose.
Some of the crowd -mostly boys - crowded each other, trying to catch the kiss.
She and Jean caught a glance of one of the cameras. Knowing the Survey Corps were watching them.
Annie waved and smiled more. She was already done with the fake smiling. But the parade was almost over. She knew because she saw the competitors circling a fountain.
Annie and Jean circled the fountain, and went inside another building. There the cheering crowd faded, as the doors closed.
Jean helped Annie off the carriage. Evelyn walked up to them. Her heels clicking to the floor.
"That was amazing. You two did such a great job." She congratulates them. Mo then came up.
"May I take her?" He asked. Annie walked besides Mo, as she walked off to get changed.
Annie sat on her bed in her room. It was the same room on the ship, just in a building.
Three fast knocks were at the door, and Evelyn came in.
"Ready for the interview?" She asked her. Annie nodded and followed her out.
Mo dressed Annie up in a rose red dress. Jewels at the bottom, to make it shine more.
Annie slipped on the heels, and had to use Mo to steady her as they walked out.
Jean waited for her, in his red suit and tie. When he noticed Annie, he walked up to her and Mo.
"Do we have another thirty second mark, where I have flames and Annie has crystals?" He asked. Mo blinked.
"You don't. Annie does." He said. Then the interviewer greeted the crowd. Calling the first competitor. Mo turned to Annie. "I'll be in the crowd. Look for me in the left front row, and wait for my signal."
Then he left.
Annie watched him leave, not knowing what the signal was. She walked up to Jean, and they waited for their turn.
"Jean Kirstein!" The interviewer called. Jean went up, and Annie was alone now. The interview didn't last long. "Now, Annie Leonhardt!"
The crowd cheered, and Annie walked to the stage. There a blue haired man greeted himself, and sat her down.
"Annie Leonhardt. I hear your a stubborn girl, am I correct?"
"Indeed I am, Casper." She said.
"I also heard your the hard one." He said.
"Hard as I'll ever be." Annie smiled. Telling everyone it was a joke. Annie glanced at the crowd, searching for Mo.
"Tell us." Casper said, leaning forward. "How much do you love, Mo's work?"
"Well, he is the best. I'm gonna say 10/10." Annie replied. She looked at the crowd again.
"That parade, you and Jean put on a big show. I bet everyone is talking about you. Do you have another show?" Casper asked. Everyone cheered for her to say, 'Of course. Why wouldn't I?'
There, Annie found Mo. He lifted his right hand, and twirled his right index finger. Telling Annie to spin.
Annie sat up.
"Of course I have a show. Always do, always will." There she spun in fast circles. Crystals were spreading like flames. Everyone cheered and clapped.
Casper stood up, clapping and laughing. He caught Annie before she fell.
"What a show! Give it up for Annie Leonhardt!" He announced. Everyone cheered and clapped, as she walked off and into the back.
She found Jean and the other competitors. Jean smiled, while the other competitors filled with jealously.
"Annie!" Evelyn chirped. "Again. Wonderful, along with you Jean."
Jean smiled.
"Annie, always has a show." Jean said. Evelyn smiled.
"Everyone knows that. Now that's for sure." Annie knew she meant about her Titan. "Anyway, go get changed and I'll see you in the morning."
Jean and Annie left with their stylist to get changed.
Annie lay in her bed. Thinking what was going on back at home, and if she'll ever go home again.
She thought of her father, Simon, Reiner, Bertholdt, along with the others.
Annie stirred in her bed, now laying on her left side. Looking at the wall in front of her, she wondered what kind of training she'll have to go through, and what the arena for the games will look and be like.
Her mind was full of spinning questions, hoping for answers. But sleep gotten the better of her. She turned off her lamp and slept.
