Mute

unspoken

You set the book down back between two others and put on a jacket to walk out into the mess hall. Everyone was gone. Out to see their families. You had none because of the titans. You went to where the food was kept and grabbed yourself some black tea with a side of rice cakes. As you were turning around you didn't expect to see him again. With a brow raised and lips parted for a drink of tea he smirked. "At least we have the same interest in something" was he flirting? You couldn't tell but he was leaning on you. you didn't necessarily like this nor did you dislike it. This was getting weirder than it should. you slid out from underneath him and grabbed the tea pot from the lower shelves.

your p.o.v.~

as I grabbed the tea bag and set it in the empty cup I heard snickering behind me. I quickly whipped around and saw him leaning against the frame with that same sly smile on his face. I'm starting to really hate him yet I can't get him out of my mind. what the fuck is going on? as I was thinking to myself I hadn't bothered to notice how close he got. it was at least two inches from our noses and on that note It got weird again shortly here put his hands on the counter besides me and walked a little closer so that he hands were almost touching the wall behind me. "why are so nervous cadet?" of course he would ask a question when I don't have your writing utensils and paper. I shot him a glare and he gave a fake pitying look towards me. "what cat got your tongue?" arse-nugget

2nd person p.o.v.-
of course not you thought it's just that-  "are you crying?" you were snapped out of your thoughts at his question. " it was just a joke are you okay?" the tea was screaming now. you nodded a no but went on with grabbing your tea and making it. you were still crying silently. but before you could leave he grabbed your upper arm turning you towards him and making you spill your tea a little bit. as you saw him this time his eyes were a bit kinder more sympathetic than usual. "why? why can't you speak?" your mind wandered back as it flooded to the memory.

~flashy back~

you were making a delicious stew as a victory for your father coming home from the wall for a couple days. his victory? coming home for a few days. it was hard to get days off. soon he would not need to ask anymore. for they all died that day your mom, dad, all of them were eaten alive. the reason why you are mute is because of how much you screamed at the Titans to give them back you were even brave enough to beat on their legs. then the new you kicked in, you grabbed the blades and 3DMG your dead father left behind and put it on. you were still young at the time but still trainible you were thirteen when you joined the survey corps the reason why you were top ten was because of the 3DMG your father had taught you since you were eight. so when you killed a titan for the first time when you were 11 you couldn't help but scream at every titan you tore apart. no trainees or military personnel were around during the time. so no one ever saw how angry you were how much emotion you showed that day. either way after you slashed as many as you could you made your way up to wall rose hiding in a titan as he made it's way there. they didn't see you at all that was a surprise with the clothes you wore. a button up blouse with black pants and a blue waist coat and your black converse( I know it's not time relevant but who gives a fuck). as it got to the wall scratching and biting away they started to notice you. with the little gas you had left you shot your anchors in the wall and spiralled up killing a few titans her and there to avoid dying. now covering in the titan blood you stood on the wall looking at the superiors in front of you hair and clothes drenched in sweat and blood some of yours some of them. you didn't know but it was evaporating now. some of your superior soldiers were looking down in awe erwin Smith was amongst these people along with commander pixis and the commander of the garrison. "where did you come from?" he said finally coming out of the crowd was erwin Smith.
other than your parents and other people only erwin was one of the few that has gotten to hear you speak and has told no one of it. "the fist district that was broken down."
"where did you get your gear?" pixis questioned   he was also another person to hear you speak but never told of it.  "off my father's lower half. his top was bitten off." they looked with horror. they were wondering how much trauma have you gone through with this as commander erwin came towards you, you lifted up one of the last blades you had left. "not one step closer eyebrows" he stepped back a couple inches. the blood now fully evaporated you can see where you accidentally slashed your self. a woman stepped from the crowd and they all cleared a bit to show you a crate with bandages and a sandwich "please help yourself, do you mind if I ask you a few questions while I wrap you up?" you shook your head no and the questions furthered "how did you get here without the boat? what happened to your family and why did you not let erwin come near you?"
"I got here by riding a titans back, everyone In my family Is now dead where as my father left me to scavenge for myself. and erwin you dirty bastard why would you hide such a long needle under your clothes?" everyone was now closely examining him. "I'm from military family, we learn how to protect ourselves out of those who hurt us. my father trained me on that exact thing while showing me this magnificent machine and how to control

it and my actions towards the attacker."

your p.o.v.-

even though I was young I was quick. an I was then rushed into refugee camps and was allowed to keep the mechanism my father gave me no one could take it anyways.
