Armin's grandfather had taken care of Armin, Eren, Y/N, and Mikasa during the starvation Wall Rose had during its time. The next two years weren't easy; the government had a solution to the mess: extermination. They decided to send 250,000 men to retake Wall Maria, but only 250 survived, it solved the lot, but Armin's grandpa was dead.

Armin holds on to a hat left behind by his grandfather, crying as he holds it.

Eren: Armin.

Armin sniffs and wipes his tears away.

Eren: Who do you go to at times like this?

Eren looks at Y/N; he lifted his shoulders.

Armin: I used to pray to Gandhi.

Eren: Who's Gandhi?

Armin: The God of War.

There was an awkward silence.

Two years later...

Keith: What is your name, soldier!!!

Armin: Armin Arlert, sir! From Shinganshina District!!!

After two years, Armin, Eren, Y/N, and Mikasa joined the 104th Cadet Corps.

Keith: Why are you here?!

Armin: To help with Humanity's victory against the Titans, sir!

Keith: Great! You can be Titan fodder!!!

Keith walks over to Y/N.

Y/N looks up to Keith Sadies.

Keith: What is your name, soldier!!!

Y/N: Y/N L/N. From Shingashina District.

Keith: Is that so? Why did you join the Cadet Corps?!

Y/N: To retake Wall Maria and join the Scouts!

Keith: Alright.

Y/N was somewhat surprised about Keith's response.

Keith went on to harass the other cadets.

Y/N: Who are you?

Jean: Hello. I am Jean Kirchstein, the most popular cadet in this group.

Y/N: No, you're not.

Jean: Why you...Tch!

Y/N: So what do you want from me?

Jean looks over to the girls sitting nearby; most were giggling.

Jean: I want you to tell me; how do you do it?

Y/N: Do what?

Jean: Get the girls!

Y/N: I don't know; I think you have me mistaken.

Y/N takes a sip of coffee.

Jean: You seriously don't know?

Y/N: About what?

Jean whispers in Y/N's ear.

Jean: The girls like you!

Y/N: Wait; what?

Jean: Yes!

Jean seems somewhat relieved.

Jean: So how do you do it?

Y/N: I don't know.

Y/N takes another sip of coffee.

Jean: Eren is your brother.

Y/N: Adoptive Brother.

Jean: Yeah yeah, ok.
