"I'm back!" Eren heard a sing-song voice echo through the halls.

"What do you want Jessica.." Eren groaned, worn out from trying to get out of his restraints.

She sat on a chair, and crossed her legs, propping her elbow on her knee to hold her head up.

"I just wanna talk" She said, smiling

"Not interested.." He spat out, straightening himself to sit against the farthest wall.

"Oh come on Eren!" She whined "It'll be fun"

"I said i'm not Interested!" He yelled back at her.

"You seem a little tense Eren.." She said, standing up. "Maybe I can help relieve some of that tension.."

"W-what are you talking about?" He asked her.

She slowly opened the cell door, a burning lust in her eyes.

"Just some fun.."

Eren pushed himself back into the wall.

"N-no.. Stay back.. Stay away!"

Armin and Mikasa grabbed lights and set off down the trail she saw Eren walking down. No words are spoken between the two.

Dim lanterns illuminate the night forestry. Crunches of fallen leaves sound with every step they take.

They were about to give up when Armin found something.

"Mikasa!" He yelled, "His key!"

She quickly hurried over to where Armin was and squatted down to see it.

"This isn't good.." She said, "Eren always kept this key close. He wouldn't just throw it on the ground, even if he lost his memories, you'd think he'd have remembered this crucial thing right..?"

Armin shrugs, "He wouldn't have just left it, there has to be reason it's here"

Mikasa began to panic more, her breathing becoming heavier.

"Mikasa calm down, we'll find him, trust me."

She slowly nodded

"We should get back.. Tomorrow we can continue. Staying up so late will make it harder to look in the morning."

She sighed, "I guess.."

They walked back, Mikasa walking slowly incase she sees him. When they get back to their cabins, both of them go to their own, and Mikasa lays down, and tries to fall asleep.

Eren pushed himself in the corner, trying to get his legs up to block his body, the chains creaking against him.

She approached him, beginning to crouch down, her smile growing
wider.

"Please.." Eren pleaded, "please don't do this"
