And it reminds me...

===

Apparently (F/N) got scolded by our usual Trainee Corp Commander for sleeping in. Atleast we were lucky enough to wake up early in time except her.

So what's the punishment for her? two-hundred laps. I just love how she could be so nice in secrets at times, But mostly just an extraordinary bitch.

I went to the mess hall and found Hanji, Mike, And Erwin. "Top of the morning to you, Nile!" Hanji greeted as she takes a bite off her bread. "Morning." I greeted back, Mike and Erwin does the same. I sat down with my tray of food and began eating with them.

"Too bad (F/N) is currently running out there in the heat." Mike commented. "Yeah, Especially it's Summer this season.." Erwin muttered. I chugged down my water and breathed out. "Hmph. I bet she'd say 'Oh look, I can do this all day. I'm not weak!' or some shit like that. I just know her too well, That's all." I said. Hanji gobbled her food in less than three minutes and finishes. "Oh hey, Aren't we going to do Gear Training in the forest today?" Hanji asked excitingly. "Seems so." Mike sighed.

"Pfft. Now I'm wondering when she'll finish running... She's pretty slow.." I breathed out.

"What do you mean 'slow'?"

A voice crept behind my back.

"(F/N)?!" All of us except me stood up in shock. "Yeah, why are y'all so shocked?" She asked bluntly. "Y-Y-You started running four minutes ago..!!" Hanji said, quivering. "Eh? So what?" (F/N) deadpanned.

"You ran two-hundred fucking laps for five fucking minutes!!" Hanji said in pure shock. "And you look nasty too." I muttered as I take a sip from my drink. (F/N) heard it and roundhouse chopped my head, I hiss in pain as I drop my cup to the floor.

Just in time, "All cadets fall into the training grounds! You're gears will be distributed as we let our first gear training commence!" The trainer yelled in the mess hall. Everyone stood up and scurried off to the training grounds. The five of us stood up last and headed there as well.

We lined up to get our first gears and then there is this thing that stood upon us; A gear balance test..

Luckily, Hanji was used as a demonstrator picked by the commander himself. She got hooks on her sides and then the pulleys lifted her up. She shook for a few seconds but managed to balance. The commander nodded in approval. "Not bad, next!" The man shouted. Hanji pumped a fist in the air and cheered when she had success. More people went on until it came to Erwin. "Alright blondie, You're up." Commander teases but Erwin ignored as he gets in range. They hoisted him with his hooks and then lifted him up. He stayed completely still, Leaving the cold commander stunned. The commander nods and then glares as soon as it was (F/N)'s turn.

Dear God... I could feel all the hatred towards this poor bitch.

They hoisted her up wih the hooks and starts lifting her up. As she was lifted, Everyone was stunned for she did it without giving a face of nervousness and fear. Everyone did, except her.

Until...

A hook came off of her harness and this sent her crashing to the ground. Erwin and Hanji suddenly ran up to (F/N). Her head was bleeding like hell from the impact.

"Shit!" Erwin cussed as he held her head and Hanji oulled her body upright. Commander called in nurses and took her straight away to the clinic.

"Y'know, If you keep ending up in the infirmary, You can get called off the military, right?" I said to (F/N), clearly worried. "Don't tell me that like I don't know it." She scoffed. "Are you still hurt?" I asked in concern. "No. Not anymore." She sighed as she leans her cheek on her left palm.

Me and (F/N) are stuck alone in this mess hall, Since commander told me to look after her until she's completely fine. And here we are, sitting on the dining table's chairs. "Erwin, You have no problems with me, right?" She asked. "O-Of course! No problem at all." I shrugged.

I can't tell the truth. She is perhaps conflicting my schedule.

"Anyways.." She sighed and slouched. "I wonder how your gear went off?" I asked out of nowhere. (F/N) froze and shrugged her shoulders soon. "I don't know. The gear was perfectly fine when I recieved it." She testified. "Hm.. A sabotage, perhaps?" I lightly tap my chin. She looked up to me in total disbelief. "Sabotage? Really??" She said, unsatisfied with the guess. "It could be, Come to think of it; Someone hands you the  gear, right?" I explained, (F/N) just follows and continues to listen.

"The person who made or repaired the gear, Probably jammed into the gear and handed it over to the distributors, And then those clueless distributors distribute it to us." I explain further. (F/N) shook her head in disagreement. "No, What if the gear was meant for someone else? What if he gear fell into the wrong hands, In short; Me." She said bluntly. I clicked my tongue until the mess hall door opened.

"Yo, Erwin, (F/N). Commander called me in here to send you back out there, (F/N); You will be directed to Omni-Directional Maneuver Gear training." Mike said as he peeks his head out of the door. Me and (F/N) looked at each other and stood up and made our way to the exit. 

"Do your best, (F/N)." I said comfortingly. Her eyes lit up in courage and determination. "Likewise." She replied and we head out to the training grounds.
