Y/n POV

May 21st. I remember that day so vividly. I had watched my my parents and friends get slaughtered by titans. I was 28 at the time. I was serving in the scout regiment, but was on temporary leave to take care of my sick mother. She had sent me out to buy food, as well as find Grisha Jaeger's son, Eren to take me to get medicine. Eren was 12 years old and had a lot of determination. I'd always tell him stories of what i'd see outside the walls and he would always tell me that he wanted to join the military, just like me. As we were walking to his house, we heard the loud crash of the wall being broken. I instantly ran towards my house to see my father dead and mother being eaten, yelling at me to run. I began running. Running to save my life. I knew how selfish it was, yet my feet wouldn't stop. Tears streamed down my face as I looked back at the place I once called home. It was now the ruins of a great calamity.


Time skip

We got to the inner wall and I was reunited with my fellow scouts. Hanji flooded me with questions like "are you alright" and so on. Classic Hanji. Commander Erwin led me to where we will be staying and gave me a fresh set of uniform and left me to change. I look in the mirror that was in my shared room with Hanji. My tear stained cheeks had lost it's once rosy color. My h/c hair was messy and my eyes were puffy. I took a deep breath and took off my clothes, putting on my uniform. I slipped on my jacket and fixed my hair into a high ponytail (If you have short hair think of something else), letting my fringe fly free at the sides of my face. I throw some water on my face and use my old shirt to dry it. I step out and walk into the mess hall to be greeted by everyone.

"Oh my gosh Y/n you're ok" Petra runs and hugs me

"Glad to see you alive" Gunter responds

"tch whatever" Oluo adds

"Come on Oluo. You know you are just as glad that Y/n is alive as the rest of us are" Petra snaps

Levi sat at the table, still drinking his tea, as usual. I'd be lying if i said I didn't admire the man in different ways. He's a great soldier and excellent leader. Yes, I like him, just like a handful of the girls here, however, he is a man with no emotion. There is nothing anyone could do or say that will change that.

"I'm glad to see all of you, really I am, but I need some air right now" I tell them

"Right. You've lost people close to you. Take your time" Gunter tells me

I nod and make a small smile before walking outside. I sit down watching the sun set. All my friends are dead. My family is dead. The only people I have left are Eren. Mikasa and Armin. I hope they are doing alright. Knowing Eren, he'll take this chance to join the scouts. Mikasa will most likely follow him and Armin will follow both. I hope they don't do anything too reckless. I close my eyes, feeling the gentle breeze hit my skin. What a cruel world we live in...


Time skip - 2 years later

2 years went by in a flash. I had found Eren, Mikasa and Armin about a week later and he told me they were all joining the military. I simply nodded my head but told them to be carful. They have gotten significantly taller in the past 2 years too. They have all graduated and have officially joined the scouts. I'm sure their families would be very proud of them right now.

"Hey Y/n" Eren says

"Hey Eren. Was there something you needed?" I asked him

"Are you going to come help with training later?"

"Maybe. Corporal Levi might have me on cleaning duty"

"Again? He's been doing it for the past week. Isn't it annoying?"
