Humanity's Strongest' Weakness

Chapter 28

- - (Back to Y/n's POV) - -

"Y/n! Y/n!" Someone was calling my name as I roused from my sleep.

"Hmm?" I hummed out in confusion as I blinked, rubbing my eyes tiredly.

"Are we here?" I slurred out, still trying to wake up fully as Hange gave me a wide, toothy smile.

"Yep! Let's go!" Hange said as I pushed myself up.

"Thanks, Jean." I said as Jean flushed red, but I ignored him, jumping out the wagon and stretching my stiff limbs.

It was still dark, the moonlight was obscured by the many clouds in the sky.

After I got my gear back on, I walked to the stone chapel, clicking my neck as I saw Hange kneeling down on the ground, on the other side of the chapel

"Found it." Hange said in triumph as I walked to where she was, poking over the table in the middle and watched as she moved the rug, revealing a trap door.

"A hidden door. Eren's gotta be in here with the enemy. Hopefully the layout in there is like I predicted." Hange said as Levi walked towards her, kneeling down beside Hange.

"These presents better pay off, considering we went out the way preparing them." Levi said as I knelt down Armin.

"Come on." I said, helping him tie the presents to the barrels.

"All right, we're good to go!" Armin said as Levi turned to us.

"Are we? Is everyone ready to get their hands dirty, too?" Levi asked, looking at everyone as they didn't reply, but from the look of their faces, I could tell they were.

"Guess so." Levi said as he stood up.

"Everyone make sure your gear is right too, we don't want anyones gear failing in the middle of battle." Levi said as I watched Petra walk up to Levi.

"Levi... please be careful." Petra whispered as Levi nodded.

"You too... Petra." Levi said as I saw him frown slightly when he said her name, but I brushed it off.

"Oluo, ready to beat some Interior Police's asses?" I asked as Oluo scoffed.

"Please, those shitty brats had it coming." Oluo said, mimicking Levi once again as I sighed.

"Are you ever going to stop mimicking Levi?" I asked as Oluo scowled.

"I'm not mimicking Captain Levi!" Oluo said as I scoffed.

"Sure, Oluo, sure." I said as Oluo opened his mouth to say something but I cut in first.

"No dying, right?" I asked as Oluo scoffed again.

"Y/n, you're talking to the Oluo." He said as I laughed.

"Oh right, I forgot." I said sarcastically as Petra walked towards us.

"Hey, is everything alright?" I asked Petra who had a solemn look on her face.

"It's just... Levi. He's kind of ignoring me." Petra said as I offered her a small smile.

"Like I said before, he's ignoring you because he's scared to lose you right now." I said as Petra just hummed a response.

I sighed, walking towards Levi.

"No dying on me, right? It was a promise." I said, pulling back my sleeve to show the strip of his cloak that I had tied around my wrist.

Levi rolled his eyes.

"Yeah, same goes to you, brat." Levi said as I grinned.

"Like hell I'll let Interior Police kill me." I said, shooting Levi a grin as he rolled his eyes again.
