CHAPTER TWO COMING CLEAN
•••
FORMER SURVEY CORPS HQ
It was no secret to the Regiment how a bounty hunter had been causing trouble within each district. Freya had been famous to many, especially to those from the Underground City. Low-life thugs that idolized her mischief with the law. She did make a name for herself. Once in a while suddenly disappearing from the map, almost as if she didn't exist for months before another daily city report would be broadcasted in newspapers, and wanted fliers for missing persons. Being given a name, and her job would be to find them, hunt, or execute. The former being one of the numerous reasons why the law had been chasing her the second her name went spreading in each wall.
Years, months, no one had wanted to capture her more than the Regiment. She was an infestation that wouldn't go away, her name already stirring a problem in each nook or corner, yet, here she was, meters away from their grasp as she unproblematically rode her white stallion, stifling a yawn from the long journey with nothing but glares and scowls pointed her way.
"I don't understand."
"I don't think anyone does."
"How can Corporal allow this?"
"Either way, we get to kill the two of them when we're given the chance."
Eren's back tensed at the last statement, suddenly going rigid and tightening his hold on the leash of his horse. He peered left and right, head unmoving from being seen as nervous from the cover of his green cowl. However, it was obvious enough with his constant fidgeting that he was getting antsy. He didn't like how no one attempted to at least whisper their thoughts in private, instead, stating them with confidence and dubiety. It was evident that not a lot of Scouts agreed with the fact that a disguised Titan aligned with them, more so with a criminal being glued by his side.
"Ignore them. It's just fear talking." Freya muttered, uninterested and the least bit threatened at the fact it was the two of them being the subject of the topic. Riding her horse by his left side, blinking at the trees and sun's rays beating down at them, frankly she was starting to be irritated with the whispers.
He looked down, eyes slightly widening that Freya spoke to him. It was her first time speaking up as she stayed silent during the duration of the ride. "But I don't understand too."
He really didn't. Nothing but orders were meant to be given to him, information didn't pass by him, leaving him to be clueless about the arrangement. And why suddenly Freya Nightwalker, of all people, joined. He wasn't as dense as most would think. He immediately caught how her attention had been tied down to him the moment they all grouped together. Her name and her story was known to everyone, including him, which threw him off guard to see someone with her background randomly pop into the Survey Corps.
