Bertholdt x Mikasa (BeruMika)

Twenty Three

Guys. So I looked at the demographics of this story which I had no idea you could do! I just got this account last March and didn't really start writing and real material up until October or September! :D I have people from all around, well not in Africa though :/ Well that I know of, because I'm sure that everyone doesn't put their location their devices, I know I don't. I hope to get some soon c: thanks for reading my piece of crap I call fanfic! :D

P.S. This chapter is twice as long because yolo. I felt like it (using yolo ironically here)

P.S.S. Erwin Danchou's POV is being included as well ;D!!

IT TOOK ME FOUR HOURS TO WRITE THIS AND MOST OF THE NEXT PART AND EDIT IT FOR SPELLING ERRORS. PLEASE APPRECIATE IT. Sorry. I haven't slept for two days and this is helping me not to go crazy.

~Erwin's POV~

I'm not sure if this Ackerman girl is doing this to be a martyr or what. So far she's known two very close people to her to be titan shifters. Only difference is, one's trying to defend humanity whilst the other one is the cause of all of it. I don't know . . . quite what exactly. What exactly to make of it. . .

If I let her off with a warning it'll look bad, but if I don't I'd be sending a message that we'd be taking everyone in as a traitor just because they have sympathy and humanity. And that's what I'm trying to instill, both in myself and this society. God dammit Erwin! You have to do what's best for the general population, and not give a damn of what you superiors or goddamn peasants think! What is best? What will balance out the odds? Why is it taking so long for those cadets to come back? I should've just sent Jaegar and Connie as originally planned. Eren might not be levelled headed as well as his sister, but he definitely would've been mentally better for Bertholdt and Mikasa, and if not, then Connie would be capable enough to calm Eren down.

Leonhardt and Kirshstein, why did they volunteer? It doesn't make sense, no one in their right mind would want to be a cadet let alone volunteer to go after the mutha fucking colossal titan!? What other reason would they have? Love, anger, even deceit. Nothing ever works out if it's with the wrong intentions, so they may come back empty handed, or not come back at all.

I threw all the paper work off my desk with the sweep of one arm. Not from a simple mistake of sending the wrong people. Just the reminder of what to do once they're caught. I wasn't given any orders in specific, just that I should decide what to do.

Someone was knocking at my door. It was Hanji.

"May I come in!?" She asked all eccentric and as hyper as ever.

"No. What do you want?" I said monotonely.

As expected, she burst through the doors.

"Sorry Danchou but I just saw the most amazing thing ever! AND DISCOVERY! YES YESSS!! DISCOVERY AS WELL!" Hanji kept pacing and making god awful scary gestures all around my room, ranting and ranting. I just continued shuffling my papers and picking them back up onto my desk and tables. As I mute her out, I heard a few words that stood out to me.

"AND THERE WAS A REASON HE NEEDS A MOTIVE! SO THEN. . ." Hanji kept rambling and I abruptly cut her off.

"Whoa whoa whoa! Hold on a moment there. Motive? What kind of a motive? You mean like an enemy or . . .? Explain oh amazing and dear scientist." I over exaggerated a bit but it's good to keep her esteem up, it makes her work more.

"Well if you insist on knowing." Hanji chuckled purposely in a snooty way. "He couldn't turn into a titan when we tested it after putting him in a foxhole and allowed him to hurt himself. He chomped his canines deep into that hand just about a million times! HAHA BUT STILL! NOTHING! NOT ANY TRANSFORMATION AT ALL! Sooooooo we all decided to call it a day on the testing, but I still had hope. So I went into my lab to get some paper work done when I saw and heard a boom of thunder from the distance! Levi's squad was losing their shit for nothing, I tried touching the beautiful specimen but oh this that burn like a mother trucker! So--"
