The Difference Between You And Me

The Walls

Yo guys, I'm sorry for taking so long as well as for the blandness of this chapter. I wrote it and then posted it, no reviewing at all so there are probably mistakes and stale parts. I just wanted it done because I have a test coming up in a subject that I'm absolute shit at. I need to study, not write fanfiction. The next chapter will be a doozie, unless I make it a training break chapter...I might. oh well. I hope you enjoy the chapter and I really enjoy your comments, especially you Metallic_Kiss, you always make me laugh, love ya <3. But yeah, enjoy and comment. PS: I just made up the names of the outer districts because I don't think they've been named yet...I think...whatever.

Sincerely,

Shado on'nanoko.

~Levi~

It had taken way too long for everyone to get to the gate at Wall Maria. As he was raised to the top of the gate on the built in platform, the last one to go up, Levi watched his ever growing view of the surrounding land. There were less titans than he had thought would be out there, only a few getting in their way. He was grateful,yes, but he couldn't help but be suspicious. He knew for a fact that his squad and the others hadn't killed as many as the limited number now suggested. The only real explanation he could come up with for the lack of roaming titans was that the Berserker had diminished their numbers which simultaneously made his seethe and relieved. The less titans there were, the less soldiers were likely to die.

The platform shook as it reached the top and his horse snorted in protest. He stepped out onto the top of the wall, horse following obediently behind as he scanned the controlled chaos of the beginning of the next step for the blond giant himself. Soldiers who noticed him pass would stop momentarily to salute before rushing off to help set up a new base of operations or to prepare for the decent into Agathe. It was at the opposite side of the wall, overlooking the pocket district of Agathe that Levi found Erwin who watched the workings of his army with a calculating gaze.

"When do we go down?"

Erwin didn't even blink when Levi sidled up to him and spoke,choosing instead to continue his observations of the slow but steady construction of makeshift offices and stables. He seemed so involved in his thoughts that Levi almost thought that he hadn't heard him. It was a stupid idea of course. Erwin hears everything.

"Once the stables are completed we'll go in"

It made sense. There were no platforms to lower horses down on the pocket side so they would have to be left behind and replaced with 3DMG for the descent. Levi turned away from the bustling scouts and leaned over the side to take his first look at the city of Agathe after what felt like centuries. Erwin, without even turning to look,gestured to the ground below and pointed out the multi-coloured dots shivering just by the gate.

"Civilians?"

"It would seem so"

Levi hummed and couldn't help but wonder what the peoples reactions would be to new soldiers suddenly arriving. The people in each pocket district had more than likely experienced their own hell with the struggle to survive in close quarters when there was a limited amount of food and titans surrounding them on all sides. Hopefully they wouldn't lash out. Levi was too tired to fight idiotic humans when there were bigger problems to deal with.
