Armin Arlert
Captain! [He taps his bawled fist upon his chest saluting the person walking towards him.]
Levi Ackerman
Armin, why are you here?
He says lightly touching Armin's shoulder, and looking towards the closed door of one particular room.
Armin Arlert
I was here to talk to commander Hange about Eren.
Armin Arlert
Is there something wrong? [He followed his gaze towards the shut door.]
Levi Ackerman
Most certainly. [He started walking towards the door and paused right in front of it.]
Armin just stared at him in confusion, not getting whatever was going on. As he heard footsteps coming towards them, his head jolted towards the direction.
Armin Arlert
Jean, Connie?!
He looked at them standing there, look of worry washed over their faces.
Jean Kristien
Armin we need to— [he cut his own sentence off when he noticed Levi]
Jean Kristien
Captain what are you doing here?! [He asks almost seeming surprised]
Connie Springer
Captain Levi do you know what's even going on out there?! [He yelled in a concerned tone as he kept glancing at his back]
Levi was still standing there, his back facing them.
Levi Ackerman
I'm aware. [His hands clenched into fists]
Armin Arlert
[He looked at all of their faces in confusion] Jean, tell me what's going on?!
Jean Kristien
[He let out a long sigh before speaking]
Jean Kristien
Commander-in-chief Dhalis Zachary was killed.
Armin Arlert
What....? [His eyes widened in shock upon hearing the sentence]
Connie Springer
We're doomed if those guys lock us up!
Armin Arlert
"Those guys"?
Connie Springer
Those little shits who are with Eren!
While they were speaking, Levi shoved his arm up making them stop talking. Soon enough, the door in front of which Levi stood for a while now, finally creaked open.
All of theirs eyes were now darted towards the person stepping out.
It was Lance Corporal Julie, who as soon as she stepped out was grabbed by her collars.
Armin Arlert
Captain! what are you doing?!
Levi's cold gaze pierced right through her hazel eyes, which seemed as indifferent as ever.
His eyes didn't express much, to others that is. Julie on the other hand could read them right away. The eyes which screamed the agony of a betrayel.
Levi Ackerman
Did you plan all this? [His hands were still gripping on her collars tightly]
Julie Zoë
And if I did? [She tilted her head, glancing back at the rest three before shifting her eyes back to Levi]
Levi Ackerman
Julie, do 𝙣𝙤𝙩 test me. [his grip tightened]
Hange walked from inside the room too, as she caught his hand to loosen his grip from Julie's collar. Eventually he pulled his hand back.
The girl jolted awake, her heart pounding against her ribcage like a caged bird desperate for freedom. Beads of sweat dotted her forehead as she tried to shake off the remnants of the nightmare that still clung to her mind like cobwebs.
Closing her eyes, she tried to banish the haunting images of twisted trees and winding pathways that seemed to lead nowhere.
With a shudder, she threw back the covers and stumbled out of bed, determined to shake off the lingering fear that threatened to consume her.
