Levi's POV

The blood oozed out of my cuts they gave to me... the bruises were deep and dark colors. I felt my bones broken, especially my ribs. My legs were jello as I tried to stand with my wounds, but immediately felt the pain and I fell back down. I guess... that's what happen when you mess with bullies who were armed with pocketknives.

Lying on the ground near a tree, I held my broken wrist... wincing a bit. I just wanted answers from them... wondering why they accidentally cut badly on Farlan and Isabel... which are the reasons I went after them. Why I did favors to get them to explain why they even hurt them in the first place. And I couldn't handle it when Hanji walked in...

No... I didn't want to get her involved... not like how Farlan and Isabel were hurt because of me. It was my fault... and even though I love Hanji... I can't have her end up like Farlan and Isabel. It's my fight, and I'll be the one to end it.

Hanji's POV

"Hanji, listen to me." Nanaba says to me as she paced in my room. My left hand was busy massaging a stress ball while my right hand did homework. "Listen, I know it's been days-"

"3 months..." I muttered under my breath, correcting her. His uncle never asked or reported him missing. I wanted to do it, report him missing, but everyone said that he deserved it. And that I should run as well. They giggled, snickered, laughed, at me... and the one who would've helped me was gone.

Nanaba collapses on her sleeping bag, "Hanji, he's my friend too. I didn't have feelings for him... but yeah, I miss him too."

"Do you... think he's okay...?" I questioned her, hiding my tears. He hasn't responded to any of my texts... nor did he communicated with me. I felt... betrayed again. Lying back in my seat, I decided the first thing I'll do to Levi when he gets back... is to slap him in the face.

She chuckles softly, "Knowing Levi, I'm sure he's fine. I just hope, okay? Just hope."

Nodding, I let a tear fall. Afraid... afraid he wouldn't make it back... and then, I would have to close my heart away from everyone. Sighing deeply,  I stood from my homework and put on a thin jacket. "I'm... gonna clear my head." I say to Nanaba. "I'll be back."

Understanding the code, she nods. "Alright. See ya soon."

Early spring still brought the frost and chills from winter. The early buds were still covered in white frost... not knowing that winter wasn't fully gone. Levi... I wished I could see him again. Kicking the dead leaves on the ground, I kept thinking about him. How he left me that day, 3 months ago.

Collapsing on the tree trunk, I slid down to the ground and wanted to cry. Cry and cry... to release every feeling in my heart. But I couldn't. "Dammit Levi..." I muttered.

Gathering myself up, I walked more into the next neighborhood. I wanted answers, and I held myself from demanding some from the neighborhood that Levi told me to be careful in... the same one where he received those wounds. I didn't care... but I wanted to know if he was there. My last attempt...

Walking there, I was immediately stopped. A group of older teens, perhaps seniors. They held pipes and plastic swords. As I approached them, I heard them snicker. My hand remained in my jacket pocket,  clenching a pepper spray in my hand. 

The pack leader walked towards me, smirking with a weird look in his eyes. "You don't belong here, girlie..." He says, tilting his head. "What's your name?"
