Levi walked down the stairs. He had been checking on Armin every so often of the past two hours he had been with the doctor.

A man, tall and blonde, had notified the doctor after entering the room once again and finding Armin sulking, with his shirt pulled up, revealing the large wound they had attempted to hide.

Eren had no idea who this man was. He just so happen to come into the room at the right time.

Levi leaned against the doorway. "You dumbasses thought you could hide a serious infection like that, from us?" his arms were folded across his chest and the tall blonde man stood behind him, a scowl on his face.

"He could have died. Then infected everyone here after he turned. Killing us all." Levi's tall friend said.

"Who even are you anyway?" Eren asked.

"Erwin. But who I am doesn't quite concern you. All that you should care about, is that not telling us was a mistake and is in no way going to earn our trust."

"We just got here! We would've told....someone....." Eren said to them.

"Would you have really?" Levi asked.

"If it meant getting Armin help, then yes!" Eren insisted. Levi sighed.

"He should be fine now. His fever is dying down and the wound should end up healing properly." he muttered.

Jean began descending down the stairs. He approached Eren and sat down next to him. "Mind if I ask what the hell happened to him?" Jean asked.

"Wait.." Eren thought for a moment. "Why were you...."

"I work with the doctor sometimes. I like to learn a thing or two. That...is some gross shit on his stomach. What happened to him?"

Mikasa swallowed. "When we were attacked...he wanted to protect his family. He tried to shield his grandfather, but was slashed. That guy was sick. Just like the rest of them." Mikasa looked into Jean's eyes. "If Eren and I had arrived any later, Armin would have most likely been beaten to death. That bastard's dead now. He was eaten." Mikasa said. Jean's eyes widened.

As Jean continued asking questions, Eren stood up and approached Levi, Erwin now gone. Levi stared at him. "What do you want, brat?" he asked him.

Eren just stared back. He thought of what exactly to say. "Earlier, when Armin mentioned The Vipers...you had heard of them, haven't you? I saw the way you reacted...did they-"

"My past is none of your business Jaeger." Eren nodded, not wanting to start a fight. He wanted to stay here. There was a slight chance they would be safe here.

Eren looked up the staircase. Levi followed his gaze and began staring up the stairs as well. "Go see him. He's probably sleeping. Don't annoy the doctor." Levi told him. Eren smiled.

"Thank you sir."

"Don't call me sir. I'm not as old as you may think and I rather not be reffered to like my grandfather was. Levi. Levi is what you call me."

"Sorry. Got it. Thanks Levi." Eren said. Levi nodded.

"Just shut up and leave." Levi began walking away from Eren, leaving him at the base of the stairs alone.

Eren slowly walked up the wooden steps. Armin had been up there for at least 2 hours being taken care of.

Eren thought about Levi. He seemed to be very angry at them, but it was hard to tell. He kept to himself, not telling them much. Eren assumed he acted that way with everyone.

He was now at top of the steps. He approached an educated looking man, who wore a green sweater and black pants. He had glasses which were circular and added to his educated appearance. Eren, assuming he was the doctor, and approached him. "Can I see him?" he asked.
