Rewrite The Stars | Levi Ackerman (Attack On Titan) Fanfic
Episode 4 of Part 1
Days went by so quickly, on the next day, you and your squad will head out to Wall Maria to gather information and observe the Titan's activities.
You stared at the mirror for a moment, looking at your new uniform before getting out of your office.
You made your way to the training grounds and saw your squad polishing their 3DMG.
The moment they saw you, they stopped what they are doing and saluted.
Miyuki
Our uniform is kinda cute. I don't mind wearing it until I sleep.
Indeed. The uniform was a bit different from the others, even it's style.
You looked at Azi who was sitting on the ground and looking at the sky.
You sighed because it was true. You all had trouble sleeping at night because of the thought of going outside the walls.
Even though you already did it for a couple of times, you can still feel fear as you won't know what will happen along the journey.
It's been almost three months since you had an expedition.
The expeditions were put on hold for almost three months because the budget for it was being put on hold for some reason.
You and your unit will be the very first soldiers who'll set foot outside Wall Maria again.
Klein
Well, Hiro's already sleeping.
Klein pointed at Hiro who was already sleeping underneath a huge tree.
All of you laughed at the sight of Hiro sleeping and hugging his cloak.
You looked at the faces of everyone in your team as they laughed at Hiro.
Y/N
Will we be able to laugh like this again?
The sound of silence was only the thing that you can hear as you stared at the ceiling above you.
It's late in the evening yet you can't sleep at the day of the expedition draws nearer.
Your body is tired and worn out from the trainings that you had today in preparation for the expedition.
You should be sleeping but your mind won't cooperate.
Unable to sleep, you stood up and went outside your room.
You wandered around the whole headquarters until you've reached the mess hall.
It's pretty dark around since the candles were out and the only light source was the light from the moon shinning through the windows.
You sat on the far most corner of the hall beside the window.
You rested your head on the table and sighed.
Y/N
Ugh, if I made it out alive the next day then I'll spend my whole week sleeping.
You said with your face buried on the table.
Levi
And why would you die on the next day?
You almost jumped from your set as you heard someone spoke from your side.
Your eyes widened as you saw Levi holding a cup of what seemed like a tea as he looked at you with curious gaze.
He was sitting beside you.
Y/N
H-How did you get here?!
You asked distancing yourself from him.
Levi
I was just sitting here before you came. You really did not noticed my presence since you were so occupied of "dying on the next day".
He said with his usual flat monotone voice.
You gently slapped your forehead, feeling frustrated.
Y/N
I'm sorry. A lot of things been happening these past few days.
Y/N
It's bothering me that's why I can't sleep and made my way here. I never expected that you'd be around drinking tea.
Levi
Is that why you're not training with us? Isabel's been looking for you but you were nowhere to be found.
You were shocked as to how Levi spoke to you. It's the first time that your conversation lasted this long without him being harsh to you.
Y/N
Oh, Flagon never mentioned that Commander Shadis pulled me out on the task?
Y/N
I'm sorry. I never got the chance to tell you guys personally because I've been out training with my squad since we will be going out of Wall Maria on the next day to gather informations about the Titans.
Levi shot you with puzzled look. He put down his cup of tea and looked at you.
Levi
An expedition? From what I've heard, the expedition will take place two weeks from now. Why would you guys go out first?
The light coming from the outside is hitting his face. You got a clearer view of Levi's puzzled face as you looked at him.
Y/N
Ah, that's our job as the Special Operations Unit. Aside from taking special missions coming from Commander Zachary himself, it's our duty to venture into the outside to survey on the Titans before an expedition takes place.
Y/N
We are a special team formed by Commander Zachary himself when we are still on your second year of training to become a soldier. After we were handpicked by him, we trained in a different area and in a different way.
Y/N
We are the so called "subject of his experiments" and if ever we'll survive for the next five years, he'll continue to what he started and create another batch of Special Operations Unit.
You noticed that Levi's grip on the cup tightened as he listened to what you were saying.
Levi
What made you accept this bullshit position of yours?
For a second, you hear a touch of anger on Levi's voice as he asked you that question.
Y/N
To be honest, I wanted my father to be proud of me. I thought back then that maybe he'll accept me if I became on of the most prominent soldiers but he never contacted me.
You smiled bitterly remembering your old self.
Y/N
But now, everything changed as I opened my eyes and realized how we are being held captive by these walls surrounding us.
Y/N
Look at the night sky full of stars Levi, it's endless right? It stretches far and wide.
Y/N
I believe that the world outside this walls stretches far and wide too and I want the people living inside the walls to realize the same thing.
Y/N
I believe that one day, we can explore the outside of these walls without the fear of getting eaten by a Titan. This world is ours.
Levi
Is that why you stayed in this job even though you don't have any certainties that you'll live a long life?
Y/N
It's true that I fear death even though it will eventually come to us. But I'd rather die trying to see what's outside there rather than dying inside these gigantic walls.
Y/N
At first I regretted joining the Special Operations Unit since it only meant one thing, joining the Survey Corps. When I had my first expedition, I almost lost my hope as I saw how the Titans devoured my comrades one by one, it was a good thing that Erwin taught me to not regret the choices that I've made and to live with it.
Levi
You trust Erwin that much, huh?
He said as he took a sip of his tea.
Y/N
If there's one person in here whom you'd have to put your whole trust into then it's Erwin.
Y/N
I'm going to take a nap for a bit here. Can you watch over me and wake me up after 30 minutes?
You said as buried your face again on the table.
He answered again using his flat monotone voice.
Before you could even close your eyes, you heard him spoke again.
Levi
You better not die and come back alive. Four eyes and our shitty leader hasn't been a great help to me.
Levi
I listened on your discussion since you were the only person who can explain things clearly. Four eyes gets easily distracted and would talk about Titans instead while our shitty leader only speaks horse crap.
Levi
I won't be able to learn anything if you'll die outside the walls so you better come back alive.
Y/N
Don't worry, I won't die. I still promised Isabel to take her out the next time we'll have our day off.
After that, you drifted to sleep.
You woke up by the sound of birds chirping and the sunlight hitting your face from the window of your room.
You quickly got up and was about on your way to take a bath when realization dawned upon you.
Y/N
Why am I inside my room?
You asked as you remembered sleeping in the mess hall with Le-
Y/N
Did he carried me all the way to my room?
You asked yourself and hit your forehead.
Did Levi just carried me?
