Hello my lovelies!Today I’m bringing you a bit of a surprise!As this very day (18th of feb) has been declared however many years ago as my birthday. woop woop.And in honor of that, mainly because I don’t like having a day to celebrate myself, I would like to present to you my first draft of my Attack On Titan Series!Some of you already know, but just incase you don’t, this is a Levi Ackerman x reader, which you will be able to tell further on in the series.Like usual, it will be a kind of slow burn, for more definition the love story will not be starting straight away, about half way through the series it will fully start up and you’ll get those precious scenes, but for the moment you will have to just cherish them.On that note, I would like to make it clear that there will be no sexual intents in this series. Possible suggestive terms at best, but nothing too risky or practically anything sexual because I do not write that kind of stuff (There is obviously nothing wrong with that if you do) and I don’t feel comfortable doing so either.I would like you guys to comment on this as much as possible, critique it, tell me what you thought, and most of all, tell me if you want me to continue it.If you have any problems with how I refer to certain characters, or how I write certain characters, do not feel shy to let me know either down in the comment section or in ask form, or just general message.With all of the things I create, this is as much your story as mine (… and the actual creators) and I would like to keep it that way, so again if there is also anything about Y/n that you want to be specified please let me know.I’m so sorry for the ramble and huge paragraphs of words, but I want to make stuff clear as I continue on.And without further ado.Read on!….. If wanted.Anime- Attack On Titan.Series Name- New Beginnings.Pairing- Levi Ackerman x reader.Based off of- Part 1 of the No Regrets Ova episode. ~~~~~The smell of dampness and dirt was always pungent no matter where you walked, your eyes cautiously flickering whenever having to leave another building, hardly being safe anywhere.Welcome to the underground.A short scoff passing through your lips caused a few people to look at you when walking by, but being yourself, you ignored them, continuing your way through to a certain destination.“Hey, Y/n.” a voice calls randomly and your eyebrows raise, eyes immediately catching onto the ones that stared back, body easing in response to recognizing them. “Hey, man, what’s up?” you respond simply, the guy in question walking down the set of steps you were just about to go up.“The usual. Finally got paid though.” John informs, a slight smirk displayed on his lips while holding up the money enough to show you, but not enough to display it to the other boys around him. A nod of your head was the only thing you gave in response, seeing that he understood your action, you let yourself move past him, finally beginning to walk up the stairs with a sigh.“Ay!” you then call out to let people know your arrival, shoulders slightly sagging as you make your way into the main room, only stopping your movements to let your eyes scan across the room.“Y/n,” your brother breathes out with a smile, and you return it, letting yourself continue on in. “It’s payday, huh?” you comment, giving him a fist bump when close enough before falling back onto a sofa. “Yep. Gave them what they needed.” Furlan points out simply, your head supplying him a nod. “To me, it seems one of them got a bit too much.”The familiar voice was almost like music to your ears, eyes immediately averting from Furlan’s and making their way over to a certain raven head who was cleaning his weapon. “Any reason?” Levi then adds on, his own eyes still stuck on the blade as he made no attempt to look over at the two of you. “You might be in trouble, big guy.” you whisper to Furlan, and he lets out a slight huffed laugh, head tilting to the side while he thought of his response to Levi’s comment.“You see… You might have realized John’s leg is getting worse. He needs meds,” he finally starts up and your enthusiastic exterior dulls down, a frown appearing on your lips while you send a short look to Levi, the guy himself finally easing off of the knife as he returns your look. “Problem is, the prices keep going up. Seems the prices rise every week.”“Tsk. Those scumbag Merchants.” Furlan then scoffs under his breath, letting himself turn back to look at Levi as you saw the emotions shifting in his eyes. “Oh, yeah. Did you guys hear that they wanna raise the toll on the stairways?” he asks and your eyebrows raise instantly. “Yeah.” Levi responds simply, but you just look between the two. “Again? Seriously.” you question yourself and Furlan issues you a nod in response. “Which means scoundrel's like us will never hope to see the light of day.” he then starts up, and you sink further into the sofa, hands coming up to rub at your face but not anywhere near your eyes or mouth.“They claimed the stairways for themselves. That way they set their fees the way they see fit. Even if you pay to get above ground, doesn’t mean shit without proper papers. You’ll just get sent back down.” he continues on and your arms now cross over your chest, Furlan stopping himself to let out a sigh. “Apparently, the lack of sunlight is the reason some guys have messed up legs.” he then comments, and you narrow your eyes at him. “It’s not like we can do anything about that.” you breathe out making Furlan look to you once again, clearly not amused by the addition.“Your mother was like that too, right?” Levi then begins out of nowhere, and you watch Furlan’s eyes shift into slight shock, letting himself sit down beside you as he sends you a short look before looking at Levi. “I guess that explains it.”“Nevertheless, you still gave him far too much.” he continues on, Furlan’s arm moving to rest on the couch behind your body. “That was a servants pay. He’s done for.” your brother attempts to defend with his eyes stuck to the floor, Levi fully looking up from the weapon in his hands to look at the two of you. “But now, he can find himself a hospital.”“Yeah. I mean, it’s not like you’re gonna go run after a guy who actually needs the money.” you point out with a light shrug, meeting those steel blue eyes before they were aimed back down at the knife once again. “Fine.”Though he wasn’t even looking at you more, you gave the guy a smile, attention then shifting when you felt Furlan moving his arm back round, eyes spotting a roll of cash that was held in his hands. “How much more do we need…” he began with a drastic change of tone, swallowing thickly before continuing. “Till we can live up there.”A sudden heaviness was washed over you, eyebrows furrowing at the comment while letting your eyes stick onto the wall in front of you. Were you ever gonna get out of here?Your thought process completely dissipates the moment a sudden banging kind of sound catches onto your ears, the three of you immediately springing to your feet with sounds of surprise. Levi was the first one to officially move, taking slow but firm steps forward as it was quiet again, knife clutched between his fingers-The sound was like someone trying to get through a door this time, Levi’s movements halting in slight confusion while looking over to both you and Furlan, the only thing being able to give him in return was the same look.However, you then got annoyed at the sudden suspension, swiping out your knife from the hidden holster on your hip before stealthily moving over to the specific door, despite Furlan’s attempts to do it himself.Your hand slowly reaches for the doorknob when you get over, the cold metal adding onto your freezing hands, knife out and at the ready. But you flicker your eyes back towards the two boys that stood with their own weapons out, finding Levi’s eyes before he gives you a nod for confirmation to continue.Your attention was back on the door within a second, and you suck in a final breath before completely yanking it open, knife gripped tightly between your fingers until you just watch a familiar body tumble to the floor, shoulders easing immediately when you realize who it was.“Oh, good. It’s just a kid.” Furlan comments while the girl on the floor winces, beginning to push herself up. “I’m not a kid.” she then grits out, and you move away from the door, Levi biting back the comment he was about to make as he watches you. “Isabel?”“You know her?” Furlan questions you in surprise, but you don’t even bat him an eye. “Yeah, I do- what the hell are you doing here? Did you follow me?” you practically interrogate before pulling her up to her feet, apparently ignoring the fact that her hands held something in them. “What’s wrong?” Levi then questions the moment he sees the emotions in your eyes and Isabel almost cowers under your gaze. “Who is after you?”The poor girl didn’t even get a chance to respond as multiple voices caught onto your ears, your grip on Isabel easing before she slides down the open door. Without even looking back at the boys behind you, you sent them a short gesture as you lean yourself on the door frame, arms crossing over your chest while you peer out the door.Levi was by your side within seconds, Furlan taking the spot on the other side while the voices that were barely audible started to get louder.“Damn, little shit. Can’t believe she bit me so hard.” a man comments right after about three of them came into view, your head raising up slightly as you narrow your gaze on them. “Once we catch that brat, let me have some fun with her.”“What kinda fun can you have with a brat like that?” another one questions, and you drop your head immediately- Levi’s hand was clasped on yours immediately, noticing the quick change of your expression at that crude comment, and you give him a short look before falling back again like he wanted you to.“Hey!” a voice then calls out and your head quickly snaps back in the direction of those three men down below. “You see a dirty little runt come this way?” “Yeah, they’re ten a penny here pal.” Furlan calls back, and you fight the urge to hold a grin on your lips. “What?” the guy in the green questions before lowering his head with a huff and beginning to walk up the steps.“You shitheads from around here?” the guy now questions, and you quirk an eyebrow in response, folding your arms over your chest again. “Perhaps.”Your body tenses the moment the guy gets to the second set of stairs, even more so when he stops immediately when spotting Isabel leaning sitting on the ground, a grin making its way onto his lips. “Hey, look what I found.”“I knew it,” another one of those guys begin while moving up the stairs themselves, your eyes however stuck on the same one from before. “You guys friends with her?”“Nope.” Furlan answers without another second to waste which almost made you rip your eyes away, but you maintain your action. “Then hand her over. Try protecting her, and you’re in for a world of hurt,” a guy continues on, and now you finally manage to share a look with your brother. “After all, she tried to go up the eleventh stairway without paying the fee.”You, Furlan and Levi all practically let out a gasp in response, your eyes just widening as you let your hold on yourself go, sparing a short look towards Isabel before immediately redeeming your exterior.“You know the one right? The eleventh stairway is in government Minister Lobov’s jurisdiction. We can’t let that slide. Not even for a kid. And of course you three will be charged for harpering her as well.” he finishes off as the cherry on top, and you contain the urge to make a face, Isabel clearly not realizing the consequences of her actions as she lets out a slight gasp.“Enough of this bullshit. Hand her over.” the final guy then shouts up once impatient and your eyebrows furrow in response. “Fine then. Move aside.” the guy in the green then decides himself when none of you say different and your eyes immediately widen, looking over to Levi with a pleading gaze.But he didn’t give you anything. A sudden dread began pooling in your chest the moment the guy was close enough, a weird feeling of betrayal kind of hitting you as he then just walks through the door, placing his hand on Levi’s shoulder with a chuckle-The raven heads hand suddenly rose so quick that you almost missed it, a struggled grunt passing through your ears before you practically go bug-eyed, blood spurting from the hand that was originally placed on the raven heads shoulder.The guy in green stammered backwards and you once again fought to hold a grin on your lips, giving Levi a short nod in gratitude before putting up your tough exterior once again.You step in front of Levi before he could do anything else, the blank expression on your face practically making the guy in green tremble, even more so when you crack your knuckles menacingly. “Wait-”You didn’t even let the guy finish as you just pummel your fist into his face, only waiting until his body collides to the floor before going at it again and again while everyone else just watched.After about one more, you yank the guy up by the collar of his shirt, eyes boring into his with the scariest look you could muster. “Don’t you dare touch him, you prick.” you spit out as the final touch before kicking him away as hard as you could, his body almost tumbling down the stairs before getting caught by his pals.“He almost got my clothes dirty.” Levi mutters angrily under his breath, and you look over to him in amusement, however he was too fixed on cleaning the blood off his knife to notice.“Oh, my. You can’t just stroll on in,” Furlan begins tauntingly while stepping to the side a little. “We take hygiene very serious here. Come back once you’ve washed your hands.”“These guys mean business, let’s get the hell out of here.” whichever one of the guys that you didn’t care to remember insists hurriedly to the other before they began carrying the injured guy away, your eyes following them until they were out of sight before letting out a huff of air.“Hey, how long are you going to cling onto that thing?” Levi’s sudden question made your eyebrows furrow in confusion, spinning round on your heel to see what he was talking about. “It’s gonna die.” he then adds on, and you now watch as Isabel opens up her hands. “But- I thought I would warm it up.”It was a bird.“What?” you breathe out as you push yourself away from the door frame, eyes just narrowed before stopping in front of the girl. “Where’d you even get that bird?” Furlan questions with furrowed eyebrows, your eyes just stuck on the animal in Isabel’s hands.“It was flying about. Probably came in through the sewers and just… wanted to let a free above ground.” the girl herself explains with a soft smile gracing her lips, and though you were in mild shock at what she was implying, you let yourself crouch down. “What? You actually- you tried to go up the stairway just to go free that bird?” Furlan questions in disbelief just as you hold your hands out.Isabel looked slightly surprised by your movements, but she complies nonetheless, gently passing the little bird over to you while you let yourself completely sit on the ground. “Well you see, that little guy probably prefers flying above ground than down here.” Isabel points out simply while your fingers slowly sift through the feathers of the creature in your hands.“That’s fine and all,” you begin shortly, eyebrows lightly furrowing before you manage to look up at your brother. “But this bird’s wing has been injured.” you point out and Furlan nods his head, Isabel’s body immediately straightening up in panic.“What? For real?” ~You were now situated at a table with the stone-cold raven head, your brother sat on the sofa like he was previously while showing Isabel the work he did to the birds wing.“Wow, that’s amazing.” she breathes out with such amazement that almost made you send her a smile. “I guess I never introduced you to these guys, huh?” you comment instead and Isabel’s eyes immediately find yours, giving you a short shake of her head in response.“Well, that blondie sittin’ on the sofa there is my brother Furlan,” you begin simply, Furlan himself rolling his eyes at you in response. “This joyful son of a bitch is Levi.” you continue on, lightly nudging the guy’s foot with your own while he just glares at you.“Furlan. Levi,” Isabel mutters to herself to embed the names into her mind, your eyebrows now slightly raising when she turns to face both you and the tough guy. “Can I call you big bro?” she then questions and your eyes slightly widen, arms crossing over your chest while you watch Levi look over at her. “Whatever.”“Now, how about it. Please let me join you guys?” Isabel suddenly pleads and the raven head’s eyes shift to yours. “What?” Furlan questions in confusion while you return Levi’s look once before looking over to the girl.“I’ve seen you guys, you use a 3D manoeuvre gear. I want to learn it, you guys make it look so graceful.” Isabel continues on, and you lean back in your chair with furrowed eyebrows. “Please. I learn quick, I promise.”Your eyes met with Isabel’s, and you could really see the desperation, a certain feeling spreading through your body before turning towards Levi again.“Now what?” you breathe out, and he spares you a short look until he began pushing himself up from his seat, your narrowed eyes following his movements as he starts walking towards a door.“Please.” Isabel calls out before Levi could get close enough, and he complies, letting yourself get out of your own chair while watching the two look at each other. “You want to use it? Learn how to clean first, then we can help you.” Levi responds simply with his usual tone before finally getting to the door.A grin grows onto your lips when you see Isabel just blink rapidly for a few seconds, her eyes then flickering to yours as if to ask for conformation and the moment you nodded your head, she looks to Furlan for the same, a sudden happiness washing over you when your brother also nods.Isabel was practically beaming with happiness now, not even wasting another second as she twists herself around on the chair with a huge smile.“Thank you so much, big bro!”~~~Hours went by of teaching Isabel how to use the ODM gear, a smile almost always displayed on your lips because she wasn’t lying.She catches on quick.All four of you hung out the rest of the day, a random joy always situated in your chest as you watched Levi grow closer to Isabel, their friendship sparking in a way that you haven’t seen in so long.It was so sweet.After all of that, and Isabel letting that bird go in a certain part where there was a hole in the ground…. Or the surface-The four of you began making your way back, both you and Levi walking a little further in front of Isabel and Furlan.“So,” you began slowly, earning a short glare once again when you decided to elbow a certain Levi in the side. “You and Isabel seem to be getting along.” you breathe out while stretching one of your arms. “So?” he challenges, and you halt your movement slightly, letting your arms fall to your sides while you continue to walk.“I just… It’s nice to see that.” you inform honestly with a simple shrug, aiming your gaze forwards again while Levi stares at you from the corner of his eye. “Well, she would’ve continued begging otherwise. She was desperate.” Levi attempts to defend, and you let out a huffed laugh. “Right. I get it.”The two of you then began moving under the final archway, Furlan and Isabel finally catching up, but a sudden suspicious feeling catches on the moment your eyes lay on a man with a pocket watch, even more so when Levi stopped you from walking any further.“What is it, old man? You lost or something?” Isabel then speaks up and though you were once again mildly surprised by her actions, you keep your eyes on the certain guy as he pulls the watch he held into his pocket.“I have a job for you.” he announces simply and your arms cross over your chest. “Is that so?” you challenge with a quirked eyebrow. “You sure you didn’t get the wrong address? We aren’t handymen, you know?” Furlan comments with his usual attitude, and you look to Levi from the corner of your eye, the old man in front of you all clearly not amused by the reactions. “I promise the pay will be good.”“Get lost.” Levi states simply before beginning to walk again, the rest of you following suit while you send a glare to the old man, getting about hallway up the stairs-“I believe a deposit has already been made.” the old man then points out and your movements halt immediately, the four of you looking back in the guy’s direction with confusion.“You’re joking, right? This is the first time we’ve met.” you remind him with furrowed eyebrows, sending a short look to the raven head before looking back. “True. But I’m sure you’ll recognize the gentleman over there.” Your eyebrows only furrowed even more, letting your eyes fall behind the confusing man before you finally spotted them.“John.” Furlan slightly exclaims and your eyes widen in an instant, dread beginning to pool in your chest. “His leg is severely impaired. He must have it operated on in a hospital above ground.” the old man starts up again while your body just tenses. “I’m correct, am I not?… Levi?”“What the hell are you trying to do, old man.” you grit out with your head lowering, irritation just spreading through you as the man wasn’t even facing you guys. “Must I repeat myself? That is our deposit. Will you hear me out now?” he just questions and your hand clenches into a fist, about to probably start shouting-Levi places his hand on yours, not even meeting your eyes when you turn to face him in surprise. “All right.”~It took a moment for all of you to be full convinced by such a suggestion, but you all found yourself following the man in the end, funnily enough up the stairs that Isabel almost got in trouble for going up.Your cautious eyes never left the old man in front of you as you practically climb the stone stairs, legs starting to burn because of the sheer amount, but you weren’t going to give up that easily.The moment then finally came, all four of you turning around the last bend and a sudden light made you have to squint.You stop yourself just below the final set of stairs, narrowed eyes flickering around the opening as you raise your hand to shield yourself from the burning sun.It was the outside.“Are these the ones?” you barely heard a voice ask, and now you realized Levi’s presence beside you in your moment of shock, however maintaining your gaze on the weird carriage looking thing at the top of the stairs. “Yes. I’ve heard many things about them.”“And who the hell are you?” Levi then spoke up with his head raised towards the men, your weight slightly shifting to your other foot as you did the same thing. “I understand why you may be cautious, but you are going to trust me in time.” the ominous voice responds and your eyes narrow even more, lowering your hand from your face until it fell by your side.“I’m eager to hear your amazing reason as to why we should trust you then.” you comment slowly, head tilting to the side for emphasis while you didn’t ever avert your gaze. “My being here proves enough.” the man states simply and contain the urge to scoff. “I’m taking a considerable risk coming here in person. I trust you received my deposit. A fair deal is it not?”“I don’t know what you call it above ground, but down here it’s called taking a hostage.” Levi points out simply, his tone of voice never changing. “That hostage is proof your reward is more than enough, don’t you agree?” the man attempts to defend and your eyebrows furrow in response. “I would call it blackmail.” you breathe out and even though you couldn’t see the guys face, you could tell he wasn’t amused.“Given your reputation, I’m certain you will have no difficulty carrying out this task. When it is finished, not only will you be generously compensated for your efforts, but you may… live above ground.”Your eyes widened within a second of time, both Furlan and Isabel letting out gasps in response while you slowly turn to look at Levi, not even surprised one bit when he hardly held a reaction. However, the moment he met your shocked eyes, you knew exactly what he was thinking inside that head of his.Here we go.~~~A sharp breath left your lips as you tighten the final strap of your gear around your waist, fingers lightly swiping against the joints of the piston to make sure that they were loose enough to work.“Levi, we’re ready to head out.” your brother calls once he was done and your head raises in response, just in time for Levi to do the same thing, turning to all of you as he shares a look. Too late to back out now I guess.“I verified John’s status,” Furlan begins as the four of you make your way around the place, beginning to walk down a set of stairs while your eyes flicker around cautiously. “He’s definitely been admitted to a high class hospital.” “The man in the carriage’s identity is legit as well. This job is legit.” he continues on and your eyebrows slightly furrow in response. “Still don’t trust either of those guys though.” you mutter breathily, all of you beginning to move down an alleyway type path. “Well, we’re doing the job… right?” Furlan then questions, and you sneak a glance to the raven head, watching as he just stares forwards. “Hey, bro?” Isabel now calls out, clearly anxious about what was inevitably going to happen. “Listen up you guys. Remain calm. It’s just like he said, our mission begins once we encounter them.” Levi responds simply and a smirk grows on your lips the moment a fence in front of you stops any of you from going any further, both Isabel and Furlan looking a little puzzled of where to go next.“Come on guys,” you begin as you twist yourself round while taking a step in front of them, Levi holding a tint of amusement in those steel blue eyes. “What are you waiting for?”Within about a second, your body was jerked back towards the fence, the smirk still permanently on your lips before you began running forwards. “Y/n?!”At about the last second you push yourself off of the ground, one foot landing on a wooden box before you force yourself upwards, a hand coming in contact with the flat top of the fence. You contained the urge to let out a war cry as you shove your arm straight with all of your strength, body winding right over the fence you leant on before you practically pinged away from it the moment you let go, slightly skidding when you land on your two feet on the other side. “Y/n, are you okay?!” Isabel whisper shouts frantically, but you just got up from your crouched landing like it was nothing, dusting yourself off simply before looking back at the fence that you just hurled yourself over. “Like I said,”“What are you guys waiting for?”~The four of you were now in your positions, your finger hovering right over the trigger of your grappling hook while the anticipation to move practically ate you.“Now.” Levi’s command was like music to your ears, and you didn’t waste a second before the hook flew out of the piston, your body getting flung into the air with such speed before the others joined you. A grin was plastered on your lips while the air flew through your hair, pulling the trigger once again when you were close enough to running out of space, the hook practically flinging you once again as you just shot through the street. “Someone! Call the military police quick!” you just about heard a guy shout before you quickly went out of range, falling between both Levi and Furlan while spinning yourself around happily. You honestly couldn’t explain the feeling of basically being able to fly about, it was almost like you were walking on thin air, the people casually walking around always looking at you guys like you were some form of gods.“Woo-Hoo!” Isabel exclaims freely from behind, and you pull the trigger of your grappling hook once again, eyes slightly going half-lidded as the air wafts into your face. But your gaze was then stuck on Levi who got the front spot, watching as he flipped about like a professional. He always looked so cool.“Levi, Y/n! It’s them, the pursuers!” Furlan then calls out, and you let your head slightly turn backwards, eyes falling behind your brother and spotting the people he was talking about.They were slightly gaining on you all.“Good.” was Levi’s only response as your head snap back to its original place, almost not catching onto the green capes that the people behind the military police wore.Who are they?“Huh, Military police again? It seems they never learn.” Isabel comments, and you contain the urge to roll your eyes, meeting the gaze of Levi for about a second before he averts his eyes. “Hey, bro? Was that line cool or what?” Isabel then calls out and your finger hovers over the trigger again. “Are you dense?”The comment made you let out a slight laugh, and you finally press down, the grappling hook launching out once again as your body glides through the air, your hair freely flapping about while you take in deep breaths. Levi then goes in a certain direction, and you catch onto his goal quickly, leading both Furlan and Isabel out of the way but still up with the ODM gear, now just watching as the raven head nicely dukes the people after you before falling back in line smoothly.“That movement. Those aren’t MPs are they?” you then question with your eyes stuck on those people with the green cloaks that regain themselves a little too slickly. “Yeah, there’s no mistaking it,” Levi begins slowly and your confused eyes flicker over to him. “That’s the wings of freedom crest. Otherwise known as the Survey Corps.”And as if on cue, practically all of them were now behind the four of you, a sudden fear randomly hitting you in the chest as you force yourself to look forwards. “Huh, seems these bow hardened soldiers really are cut above the rest, ay Levi?” Furlan comments, and you shake your head in response to his words. “You two,” Levi begins instead, letting his eyes flicker between Isabel and Furlan. “You know what to do?” he questions and the fear began to pile up, slightly biting at your lips while your hands start to feel clammy. “Of course.” Isabel responds smugly like usual. “Showtime.” Furlan now comments and just as you let yourself look back, they were gone, breaking off into separate directions like you planned.“Hey.” a voice calls, and you blink rapidly, taking in another deep breath before letting your eyes meet with those steel ones. “Are you ready?” Levi questions with that voice, and you swallow thickly in response, eyebrows furrowing before you pull yourself together. “You bet.”The grappling hooks shot out once again and when attached to something, you were swung forwards, getting in front of Levi as you slide over a building, jumping off quickly before swooping down, practically being a foot away from the ground before you were jerked upwards like a sling. And when about mid-air, you flip your body round, meeting Levi’s eyes while being upside down and a smirk graces your lips before you were fully flipped again, running along the top of a building while the raven head went through it.“Come on, come on.” you mutter harshly to yourself as you run as fast as you could, heavy feet sprinting along the rooftop before you eject the grappling hooks again, swinging off the building. The moment your body flew off the roof, your eyes find Levi shooting out of a window just below you, a proud smile about to make its way onto your lips-One of those guys in the green cloak came out of nowhere, launching themselves towards Levi, but he was too quick, the raven head swinging himself forwards until he was in line with you. “These guys are good.” you comment roughly, clearing your throat as both you and Levi swoop under a high archway. “That may be true, but as long as we-”Without even having a proper second to react, the bridge above you suddenly collapsed all at once and your entire body flips round, practically pounds of stone and rubble attacking your face. “Levi!” you panic, but you couldn’t see anything, a slight cry of pain leaving your lips when your back slams into the ground below you.You didn’t even process what was going on until you suddenly saw that your body was being lifted off the ground out of nowhere, managing to get a feel of yourself again when the sound of handcuffs clicking caught your ears. “Hey, what?” you call out, trying to turn around and fight, but one of those soldiers, members of that survey corps thing was talking about had you good, and though you still had a fighting mindset, you knew for a fact you weren’t getting out of this one.So instead you quickly jerk your head forwards, eyes wildly flickering around until you found Levi right as he flips out his knife, catching it gracefully before flinging away one of the guys blades that he was fighting, and just as he brought both hands together, about to forcefully push the knife forwards-The same guy from earlier came out of nowhere completely blocking the strike, your eyes just widening as the solider that had you began to move along the street. Levi practically did a backflip as he avoids the guys attempt to swipe him with one of those blades, landing smoothly before going to strike the man, but this time the man in question was too quick, gripping onto both of Levi’s wrists and holding them at about shoulder height while they both skid to a stop together.Your mouth was just parted in shock, a blade that the soldier held just being right in between him and Levi. In a split second, Levi’s head slightly lowers in anger, eyes staring right into the soldiers soul before he begins pushing the blade in the guys direction as hard as he could. “Don’t even think about it, take a look around you.”The blade in between the two was now shaking, Levi doing exactly what the man said an averting his eyes, you couldn’t even explain the guilt that you felt when you saw the emotions change in those orbs when he locked eyes with you.“Hey, let me go, asshole! Goddammit!” a familiar voice exclaims and your eyes widen even more than earlier, twisting yourself around in the soldiers grip only to find the rest of your gang. “Levi! Y/n!”Shit.The sound of something clanking against the floor then brought your eyes away from Isabel and Furlan, attention falling back on the raven head as you now realized that he dropped his knife, the two that were probably about to have a one-on-one releasing each other.“You’re pretty quick on your feet.” the extremely tall blond soldier then spoke up, staring down a few steps back from Levi, and you almost let out a laugh at how the smaller man was looking at him, complete death glare.Well… Looks like you lost.~The four of you were lined up on your knees, hands handcuffed behind your backs while you just sat on the dirty ground, all of you now collectively glaring at the guy in front.“I want to ask you a few questions.” the blond man begins and your eyes slightly narrow watching as he held up the grappling hook. “Where did you get these?”You held the man’s gaze for a split second before you just lowered your head, neither of you uttering a singular word as the area just went quiet.“Each one of you is pretty skilled. Who was your instructor?” the guy continues on, but once again.Nothing.A sudden feeling of dread began pooling in your stomach as footsteps started catching onto your ears, the tips of shoes then coming into view before the man completely halts himself. “You two must be the leaders, right?” he begins before letting his eyes fall on Levi who hadn’t even raised his head once. “Have either of you undertaken squad training before?”Now you were practically begging for someone to speak up, anticipation making your heart race as Levi finally tilts his head upwards, meeting those blue eyes with such a harsh gaze.All of a sudden, the soldier that Levi fought before the blond grabbed a handful of the raven head’s hair when there was no response, pulling it back in one swift motion before completely slamming it into the dirty ground. “Hey!” you shout instantly, attempting to raise yourself off of the ground in anger, however getting held in place almost instantly. “Asshole!” Isabel exclaims while Furlan just watches with wide eyes, complete disgust taking over your expression the moment you realize that Levi’s face was practically dunked in a murky puddle. And even though you knew he was completely revolted by that, he still attempts to turn his head around nonetheless, turning it until he could at least see the blond guy again.“I’ll ask again,” the man himself starts up, and you look back to him with such a dangerous gaze. “Where did you learn to use the 3D manoeuvregear?”“Why don’t you let him go, and then we can have a chat.” you suggest with a harsh tug to the arms that held you and the blondie met your eyes. “You want it to happen to you too?” he challenges and your eyebrows furrow immediately. “Is it really that crazy? We’re self-taught!” Furlan speaks up quickly, obviously trying to calm down the situation. “Self taught you say? That’s absurd.” blondie comments and your eyes fall back on Levi who was still held in the puddle.Oh, if you weren’t handcuffed.“We wanted to escape this dreadful place, you know?… Well, a man like you could never understand.” you spoke up yourself with a risky tone, eyes however not leaving from what they were stuck on. “You’ve lived your whole life above ground while we suffered down here, can you really blame us?” “Yeah! Now take your filthy hands off my bro. Stop pretending to be all tough just because you’re soldiers.” Isabel snaps angrily and your eyes finally leave Levi when a hum of acknowledgment passes through the blondies lips, your gaze falling on the man once again while your teeth grit. “Let him go.”Your attention on the guy in front slightly dissipates as Levi’s head was then finally lifted from the puddle, your wide eyes scanning around his face that was now dripping with dirty water, the soldier that originally held him down still gripping onto his hair while blondie suddenly crouches in front of the two of you.“My name is Erwin Smith. What is your name?” he begins after his eyes latch onto Levi’s, the fight in your system dumbing down while you maintain your gaze on the two. “Levi.” the raven head grunts out and your body straightens up a second later as the man now known as Erwin looks over to you. “And yours?”The two of you stare at each other for a few seconds, your conflicted eyes flickering between his own before you finally clear your throat. “Y/n.” you inform slowly and Erwin dips his head in response. “Levi, Y/n. I would like to make you a deal.” “A deal?” Levi questions through a rasp and your eyes quickly flicker over to his, relief slightly hitting you when the guy that held onto him steps back at last. “We’ll let you off the hook this time. I only ask for your strength.” Erwin begins and the curiosity hit you the moment you saw the emotions change in his eyes. “Join the Survey Corps, or else.” Your eyes widen in a split second, both Furlan and Isabel letting out gasps in shock. “Or else what?” Levi challenges breathily and Erwin meets your gaze for a moment before looking back to the raven head. “You’ll be handed over to the Military Police,” the man then starts up smugly before getting up from his crouched position.“Considering the length of your rap sheet, the Military Police will make sure you guys suffer far worse than anything down here.” Erwin insists in attempt to frighten you while taking a few steps away from you guys, your eyebrows now furrowing as the moment he turns back to face the three of you, his eyes suddenly met with yours with a look that honestly made you want to shiver. “You two make the call.”The sudden pressure hit you all at once, throat running dry as you blink rapidly. But your head then slowly began to turn to the side and only stopping until you locked eyes with Levi, beginning to have a wordless conversation.There was no way you could make Furlan and Isabel go into the hands of the Military Police.Getting them in trouble for a decision you made isn’t right, and they don’t deserve that.I mean… You didn’t really have the intention of getting caught in the first place.Your head slightly lowers after a few seconds, any panic in your face completely disappearing as you give Levi a firm nod, the guy himself taking in your movements before doing the exact same, both of you then turning to face Erwin with blank gazes. “Very well.” Levi now begins, practically jerking his head to spit out some of the disgusting water that landed on his lips. “We’ll join the Survey Corps you bastard.”~~~~@e-bendy - tagging you because I wanted to you to see this lmao.Thank you so much for reading if you did!Please, please, please let me know if you liked it and even more so if you want this to be continued!
