Power vanishes over time, and with it comes a vulnerability that Annie never wanted to feel. Her body was no longer able to keep stable within crystalline form. Faced with execution, she finds refuge within an unlikely foe. Titans and humans are two...

This is my first Hanji x Annie fic (and I will be spelling Hange as Hanji, and Hanji will be female for me because that's what my American ass is used to) so it might be a little weird. I'm not really going off too much except an idea provided by JezterEddinwhich in the brief time I've known them, they are awesome! Check out their one-shots ^^

This is taking place at the end of season one of the Attack On Titan anime. Hopefully, this doesn't turn out too bad. On with the story!
The midday sun scorched the dry earth beating down with the force of a mighty stampede. The blistering air made everyone drained and everyone was indoors to keep cool in the Wall Sina spare barracks for where the Survey Corps was staying until Erwin finished up legal work, and Levi received the best proper care for his ankle despite his retorts. The capturing of Annie and her self-crystallization has been no more than a week ago. Hanji worked to study the crystal fragments that had fallen off in the precursor events trying to come to her own conclusions to her hypotheses and questions. The scuffle with pastor Nick had only pushed her further to gain information. She wished she could have been able to speak to Annie, to experiment on her, to know how different Titan Shifters operated.
Most of all, she wanted to know why.
Why join the Military Police if you were only going to attack the Survey Corps? Why come and attack Eren? Why kill all these soldiers? Why hurt them when you could have helped them?
These were all questions Hanji had and more floating in the air. It truly frustrated her watching as she produced more and more paperwork only to have it state back in a cluttering disarray.
"Squad leader Hanji! We've got a situation!" a voice suddenly called out interrupting her on a warm afternoon. Hanji looked up from her paperwork scattered all over her desk to see a frantic Moblit coming straight towards her.
"Ah, did my stink bomb finally go off in Levi's room?" she mused half-jokingly. The first day in Sina, she used the herbs only the inner walls had to make a huge fart bomb rivaling the power of eight grenades. Since Levi was away at the hospital on Erwin's orders, it was only a matter of time before he would have to sit down in his chair when he got back.
"The what? You left a— No, never mind. I won't ask. We have a larger more important thing to take care of. Remember how Annie trapped herself in a crystal and then we tossed her into the underground lab in Sina? Well, she got out," he explained.
"What?!" Hanji cried. "We have to get moving. We need to investigate her immediately. This could be a breakthrough for science, and she may provide us with the answers we seek. Pastor Nick had been less than cooperative in that sense. Let's go." She bolted from her chair sending parchments into the air which fluttered to the ground and dragged Moblit away. He stumbled about but eventually kept pace with his squad leader.
