"Straighten those spines, piss-ants! The 104th Cadet Corps Boot Camp starts now!" Your eyes focus on a bald man with tufts of hair on the bottom of chin forming a sort of goatee and sunken eyes. "Allow me to introduce myself: I'm Commandant Keith Sadies; And you will grow to hate me! Training is going to be a white-knuckle ride through Hell.

If i've done my job, you'll be waking up in a cold sweat from memories of this place every night for the rest of your miserable lives. Right now, you're nothing. Livestock. But over the next three, soul-crushing years, you'll learn to take down your own Goliath. Remember this moment when you come face to face with him, 'Cause here's what you'll be asking yourself: Am I fighter, or am I feed? Am i gonna be ground up to pulpy human grist 'tween boulder sized incisors. Or am I gonna be the one to bite?"

You keep your dead stare forwards as Commandant Sadies walks through the throng of you all, a row ahead of you he stops at a two people before moving on to yell at someone for doing his salute wrong. Next to you a girl takes a potato out of her jacket pocket and takes a bite.

You look at her out of the corner of your eye "Hey, you shouldn't do that right now."

Thankfully she looks over at you "Why not? It was getting cold. Steamed potatoes are no good if they're not hot." potato girl takes yet another bit, completely ignoring your warning.

Unluckily for potato girl she caught Commandant Shadis's attention.

"Hey, you there. What do you think you're doing?"

Potato girl looks around before turning to you in confusion, you light shake your head but she seems to not understand that you're telling her not to do anything and takes yet another bite of the potato.

Commandant Sadies is immediately yelling in her face "You are officially on my shit list. Just who in the hell are you?"

Preforming the salute "Sasha Braus from Dauper village, at your service. Reporting for duty, sir!" potato girls announces

"Sasha Braus, huh? And what is that you're clutching in your right hand?"

"A steamed potato! It sat there in the mess hall begging to be eaten. Sir!"

"The theft, I understand. But here? Why eat it here of all places?"

"It looked quite delicious. And it was getting cold. So i gave it shelter in my stomach, sir."

"Why? I can't comprehend why would you eat that potato?"

Sasha makes a face of obvious confusion but you simply can't take her seriously because of the crumbs on her face. "Are you asking why people eat potatoes? I'm surprised you don't know sir." Sasha. Please, stop talking. To make matter worse, when Commandant Sadies doesn't respond Sasha breaks the potato and offers the commandant the smaller piece. "Here sir, have half."

The commandant holds up his 'half' of the potato ""Have half", really?" Sasha gives him a weird smile but Sadies is not amused.

***

You and some other cadets were on the porch talking about Sasha being instructed to run until the sun sets then about Sasha being from a hunting village in the mountains.

"Hey, what's that?"

You look to where Eren is motioning to see a horse carrying a cart up a hill.

"They're dropouts. They'd prefer to work in the fields." You explain, your eyes narrowing at the cart. If I drop out, it's into the hands of those damn MP's I go. Right towards my death.

"But... it's only the first day." Armin states, staring in surprise.

Eren speaks up again "That's the way it is. If you can't handle the pressure, you've gotta leave." You all turn to look at him "I can't believe anyone would rather pull plants than fight."

Marco stands and turns to face the green eyed male "I know about some of us, but you never mentioned where you were from, Eren."

Eren rest a hand on Armin's shoulder "The same as Armin. From Shiganshina."

"Oh, wow, that means-" Marco is cut off by Connie.

"You saw it. You were there that day."

"Huh? Quiet!" Marco scolds Connie who doesn't listen.

"The colossal one? Did you see him?"

"Yeah," Eren answers "Yeah, I did."

***

At dinner word seemed to get around that Eren was from Shiganshina and was willing to talk about what he saw because a lot of people were crowding around his table and asking him to talk about the colossal and armored titans.

After Jean and Eren almost get into a fight over Eren waning to join the scouts and Jean taking the safer route by joining the Mp's Eren walks out, a girl, Mikasa you think, following after him.

You stand up as well, passing by Jean. Although on the door your stopped by him.

"Umm. Excuse me?" You turn and raise your eyebrow at the male "I-- Uh. I just wanted-- I mean. I've never seen anyone like you before. I mean, uh. I'm-- I'm sorry. You have really nice h/c hair."

You raise your hand and touch a lock of your hair "Thank you." Letting it go you turn back around and jog to catch up to Eren and Mikasa.

"Excuse me! Buy you're the guy who wants to join the survey corpse right?"

"Yeah, what's it to you?!"

You raise a hand "Calm down dude. I'm here because I want to do the same."

Mikasa looks at you with a blank face, Eren's however, seems to light up. "Really, me too!" I know that's why i'm here.

"Why do you want to join?"

Eren's face turns determined "I want to kill every single titan. Those bastards deserve to pay."

You nod "Okay, nice talking to you Eren," You nod your head in Mikasa's direction "And you too, i guess." You quickly turn tail and head back to the mess hall, ignoring Krista who's trying (and failing miserably) to hide a loaf of bread.
