The breakfast they served in the survey corps is significantly better  than the food underground. Not too much of a difference for me. I was known for changing my character and thoughts depending on where i was. Well, i should stop thinking of the difference in food when i know i would be dead in a few hours. I should think of wether my subordinates would protect me or not.

My troop captain was a shady guy of which i have forgotten his name. I was brought here by Erwin Smith, though. He had went underground to ask families or lone wolves to join the Survey Corps. Desperate much? i thought.

I was more or less the only one from underground up until they arrived. I had know them in the underground realm. They knew how to use manuoever gear. All of it was self-thought. I envied them. 

Farlan, Isabelle and Levi walked into the canteen area. Farlan was smiling happily at everyone but i could clearly see his thoughts. Isabelle was still the noisy little runt she was. Reddish hair, curious emerald eyes and a smile so wide it was stretching from one ear to the next. And Levi. He was his usual stoic self. Eyebrows forever locked in a furrow, lean body figure, jet black undercut hair and my most favourite part his gunmetal grey eyes. He was the best of all these men and I don't think I needed to test my theory.
It all started at a bar underground. A dude challenged him to arm wrestling with the prize of drinks on the house and a chance to take anything he wanted. As soon as it started, it ended. Levi won. Isabelle started shouting," Big bro is the strongest!". The prize that Levi took impressed me. It was the metal box of rare tea leaves that i wanted. From then on, i stalked him. Weird but true. Isabelle glanced at me but recognised me immediately.

"Big bro, isn't she from underground too?" She asked Levi with her eyes now staring directly at me. How could she remember me? Levi turned to where Isabelle was staring. His eyes met my brown ones. I quickly turned to my food hoping he didn't see the flames in my cheeks. I started to try and eat without looking awkward and unnatural still hoping he never noticed and wouldn't care. 

A few minutes later, my table was crammed with Isabelle, Farlan and Levi. The awkward silence was so thick, you could cut through it with a blade. Isabelle tried making conversation but was cut short by th commanders orders.

"MOUNT IN FULL GEAR IN FIVE" Damn it. I'm not even half way done. I choked everything down as fast as i could before washing it down with the water. I ran to my horse's stable. I put all my working manuoever gears there. I saddled up my horse before putting on my gear. The straps didn't want to co-operate. I hated its timing to be tangled. After an eternity, it was on and done properly. I jumped onto my horse and rode it out onto the gathering point to be placed into my group.
