The blond haired girl felt like she was shaking but she didn't mind it. Until, of course, the shake got irritating and swat whatever it was disturbing her slumber. As she tried to fall back asleep, she felt herself falling. Thud. The poor lass rubbed her behind as she look around to see her superior, Hannes, with crossed arms and closed eyes.

"Hey! Old man! What was that for!?" The fiesty blond girl snapped, narrowing her red eyes. The poor man rolled his eyes, "Do you know what time it his, missy?" He hummed, waiting her answer.

She scratched her head, checked her watch and a loud yelp escaped her small mouth. "You jackass, you could have waken me up earlier!?" The girl stood up and ran to her closet to grab her uniform, her undies and harness.

"Well I tried but you would always say: wait mom, 5 more minutes or" Then he mimicked her shy, embarrassed voice, "Please stop, we can't... Levi~." The blond man laughed remembering the last part making the browned skin girl furiously blush.

"Anyways, can you leave...? Like, do I really have to tell you to leave when I am clearly about to change." A faint blush crept on Hannes, and then she kicked him out and closed the door. Seriously, what a pervert!? Arg, I feel so violated!

But she knew he wasn't a bad man, she saw much worse in both the MP and Garrison. She had no communication with Recon, so she didn't know what kind of man was in it, aside Levi, of course. I wonder how he's doing. Now that I'm thinking about it, he was about to become a corporal, right? The young woman hummed and started dressing up always thinking about the man.

After 5 minutes, the blonde finished dressing up, strapping the harness and sliding in her boots, securing them. The slim girl made her way to the door and proceeded turning the knob to leave her bunk. She was one of the lucky people who had a bunker for herself, since there weren't many females in the Garrison.

As soon as she arrived at the cafeteria, she went to the kitchen to see if there were any leftovers. "Hello? Chief Draken, are you in here?" The blonde asked, careful not to startle the man.

"Oh, good evening, Alethea!" He snorted and she was a little embarrassed, she might have graduated 1st of the 10th in the 103th Trainees Squad but discipline wasn't really her thing.

"Oh come on, it's just 3 pm!? Anyways, you have something to eat?" The young woman asked, batting her eyes. The cook stared at the spoiled lass and smiled. "Okay, okay, enough with the beaten puppy eyes. Give me 5 minutes. I'll get you something." He replied, smirking at her carefree attitude. She thanked him and waited on one of the deserted tables.

Everyone had left to work, she was also supposed to be patrolling OR assisting them at the best of her abilities. The chief brought her breakfast and wished the pretty lass a good day before retreating back to the kitchen to prepare supper.

After munching, she got up, brought the tray where it belonged and left the cafeteria. Stepping outside, the lazy girl made her way to the streets, "Typical, peaceful day, I wonder if I should go visit some people today. And the recon team is supposed to be back today." She unconsciously walked towards her parents house.

Not noticing where she was walking, she felt someone smash her. Alethea growled and opened her eyes into a glare to, almost, immediately soften her gaze."Eren, be careful?!" A black haired girl said as she helped him up. "Yea, Yea Mikasa, I get it?!" The brown head boy snapped back while seeing Alethea.

"Hi! Alethea!?" Both of them went to the newly recruited soldier and gave her a tight hug. "Hey guys, how are you doing?" She asked, it seems Mikasa and Eren were bringing wood home. "We are good, we were going home." Eren said, smiling.

"Actually I was about to visit. I wanted to let him know I just graduated." The energetic girl proudly showed off her uniform, making Eren gasp and smile, "Awesome, but why are you with the garrison? Like they are always drunk and they say titans will never breach." The green eyed boy didn't understand her decision.

"Eren, I am not afraid to die. The reason why I'm here and not with Recon or MP is because of exactly what you said. They don't work, I want to lookout for you guys and my mom. Recon, right now doesn't seem to have what it needs to effectively fight titans yet. So for now, I'll do what I can and protect you guys and mom." She said, with her lips closing making a thin line. Even if I have what it takes to kill titans, I don't have the back-up I need.

After the discussion, Alethea left with the kids and went towards the Jeager household. As the excited blond entered she talked and showed off her new uniform and smiled while the kids were putting the wood they gathered in a case.

"What did your mom say about this, Alethea?" Carla asked, impressed. "Mom is happy, although, you know my dad died after switching from Garrison to Recon. So she asked me not to go to Recon and MP just annoys me, really. But I actually wanted to go in Recon because I know someone in it, but then again it's an important time for him now. I rather not disturb him." She answered with a happy tone.

Carla frowned, "But Recon is dangerous, you will surely die if you go in it!" The red-eyed girl frowned at this and was about to speak when Mikasa suddenly interjected, "Eren wants to enter Recon." She glanced at Alethea and Carla.

"Mikasa, you traitor! I told you not to say anything!" The kids were eating at the table when suddenly Eren's mom said she opposed his idea of entering Recon. "I never agreed to help you on that matter, Eren." The black haired Asian girl said roughly, Mikasa does really care about Eren, I hope he realize it soon.

Carla asked her husband to say something about this, "Eren is growing up, he still has time. When I come back, Dad will let you see the basement, okay Eren?" Eren smiled at his dad. "But he is a kid! It's stupid; the titans will never breach the wall!" Carla scowled and her husband, "I know but he's maturing." He went to her and kissed her, "I'll be in the inner wall; I'll be back in two days." Grisha gave the lass a nod and she nodded back in acknowledgement then he left.

Eren stood up and got angry, "I am so sick and tired of being inside these wall, I wanna see the world, mom and at these times of peace, we have no idea what tomorrow can bring. These walls will never protect us for ever, one day they will fall! So it's not stupid, you're stupid for thinking the wall will always stand tall! I don't want to live as their guarded food!" Eren left the house, Carla asked Mikasa to go after him.

Alethea sighed, witnessing all of this, she didn't feel like she was supposed to be here, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean for this to happen. "Carla sighed herself, "No worries, it's not your fault. We always have disputes. He's growing and he has is sight on his own moral values."

The blond girl still felt bad, "I'll go talk to Eren, when I see him, of course. I'll go see mom now, take care Carla." The young lady hugged Eren's mother and felt her hug back. She smiled as she waved at Alethea.

As the blond haired girl left, she marched in the direction of her house. As she was making her way home, she saw Eren, Mikasa and Armin. Armin was all dirty. "Hey, kids, what happened, are you guys okay?" Eren looked at Alethea and grinned, "We are doing great! Well, Armin was being bullied again but we took care of it. "He puffed his chest with pride making the teenager laugh,

"I bet Mikasa took care of it, huh?" She narrowed her eyes mischievously and let her lips make a devious smirk making Eren pout. The teenager laughed at how cute he was and patted his fluffy brown head.

"Anyways, Eren, you shouldn't argue like that with your mom, okay?" He was going to reply but She cut him, "Eren, she's your mom; she loves you and cares for you, okay?" The blond teenager hugged him, "She is the only mom you will have and if you argue on a day you never see her again, you will regret it."

She made him look at her, "As soon as you can, apologize to her and you can still go in the army. No matter how many times she says no, she can't stop you when you are old enough. I bet she will even support you as soon as you enter the military. So when you go back home, say sorry."

Eren, held his tears back, "Okay, I get it. I'll do it when I get back home." The older girl closed her eyes and smiled at the little runt, patting his head again. The new soldier signaled all three kids to come closer and gave them a tight hug, "I have to go now, so behave, okay?" She kissed all three foreheads. Three flushed face said all together,"'kay." The blond lass smiled and left.

When she got to her mom's house, The blond knocked and waited until a red haired woman opened the door. The older lady gleefully smiled at her and pull her in a hug, "Hi mom." The blond hugged the redhead back happy to find the motherly warmth she missed for 4 years.

"Welcome back dear." The mother caressed her soft blond and invited her daughter inside. The lass entered and felt the ground shake, what is this; she frowned and looked at her mom. Screams pierced through the walls of the house and panic took over the blond. "Mom, the safe, go to it! Unlock it and take the savings, Imma see what is happening outside."

Her mom obeyed and the girl went outside to see a sight she never thought she'd see. A head was rising from outside the wall, oh my g-Her thought were suddenly cut short, when the gate was kicked with such force that it made a breach in the wall.

Alethea went back inside to see her mom with a bag containing saving that both women kept in the safe,
"We are leaving. There is a breach in the wall." Damn, today of all days, I just started this gig! The lass' mom looked at her worried, "Is it really okay for you to make me leave the city, you have a responsibility towards the citizen-"

The blonde cut her mom, took her under one arm, ran outside and used her 3DGM, making her way throughout the city.
She continued maneuvering her gear, while watching as people fell victims to titans. Damn, how could this happen, I almost feel like we jinxed it. The girl shoved the stupid comment in the back of her head.

As she arrived at the gate, she saw a line of people, in front of the it. She passed them with her mom hooked under her arm. "Hey, Andy, here put her on there." She passed her mom to one of her mates. "Sorry she can't bring luggage, Alethea" The younger girl looked at the man and made one of her famous death glares. He seemed to have understood and shut up about it.

Her mom looked at her daughter, visibly worried about her, "Don't worry mom, you have enough to get a house. I'll find you okay, be safe." As the second boat was leaving with her mother aboard, unbeknownst to them that Mikasa, Eren, Armin and his family were also in there.

Another titan broke the second gate, leading countless of titans in and the blonde seriously didn't want to believe it. What the, it vanished, no way?! She went towards the battlefield and engaged them with soldier of her division. After what seemed like hours, she saw that the refugees all made it in boats.

Good, maybe I could retreat now
? The young, tired girl heard someone call her name, Right on cue, and she escaped as fast as she possibly could. The teenager danced in the sky until she saw a boat ready for her retreat. She aimed the 3DGM at the boat and realized that she were almost out of gas, gatto make it count.

At that last moment, she pressed on the trigger making her fly straight to the boat. CRASH. She felt splinter of wood enter hrr delicate brown skin, 'Ouch, ouch, ouch, this hurt like a bitch! But I made it right... I survived.' She sighed deeply.

As Alethea opened her eyes, Hannes was staring at her, his eyes brimming with tears and The blond girl just smiled. He delicately made her sit up and inspected the painful wounds, "Aww, don't worry daddy Hannes, it's just a flesh wound!" He let out a shaky laugh and he lightly hugged his dear friend.

"Well, we know who is cut out for this job, your dad would be proud, Alethea. You fought hard. Still you could have given a bit of slack to Andy, he literally told me how you death glared him." He smirked at the though. She let out another sigh, "Well, it wasn't really luggage; it was me and my mom's savings. I told her to get a house in wall Rose, I don't care which district."

She thought for a second. "Hannes?" He hummed in response, "What happened to the Jeagers, are they okay?" She asked worried, "They're like family to me, so I was wondering-" Hannes cut in, "The kids are fine but their mother..."He let out a sigh, "She died." Her red eyed widened in surprise and let out a few tears out, sobbing, she watched at her boots.

"The wall, a piece of the debris fell on their house and she was trapped under it, they...the kids tried to get her out... but a titan was coming their way." Hannes looked away and continued his story." I wanted... I wanted to kill the titan. But..."

He paused, he gritted his teeth, "But I was afraid, when I stood in front of it, I froze! I couldn't kill it so I took the kids and ran. I left her under the debris and seconds later she was in the titans hands..." He stopped talking, he couldn't fathom the fact he left her. Tears escaped the poor man eyes as he tried to keep his composure but failed. Falling to his knees, he cried, his voice cracking.

the young recruit also cried at the loss, even if they was people she hated in that town; many soldier, many friends and acquaintances she knew died during this attack. Comfort, she needed comfort and so the young girl crawled to Hannes and hugged him.
He was a close friend and at these moments of utter sadness and despair, she needed him as much as he needed her.
