Freya puts her teacup down. 'Finally.' Happily that she had her breakfast puts her in a better mood. 'Back to the normal stuff...' She hears a few loud and short sounds. 'Really?' She leaves the table and heads outside. Above the treetops, she sees a red smoke signal. 'You are early today. What is your goal this time?' She exchanges the gas tank and grabs her cloak. Using her hooks to travel between the trees, she secures the cloak on her collarbone and hides her face under the hood. 'Shadow, I can't believe you guys gave me a name.' Snickering, she continues her way to the edge of the trees. Where she waits for them to come. 'You always head for the forest to have the advantage with your vertical gear.'
Another red smoke signal is in the air. Followed by a green one.
'Direction change. Even though I'm gone for quite some time, I still know what they mean.' She keeps her eye on the small group in the front. 'Capturing one or is the goal something else?'

Freya watches as the group rides into the forest. 'Well, you can have one. I'll take out the rest.' She glances over her shoulder as six titans enter the forest below her. From a distance, she has seen a few soldiers die. 'You're mine.' She jumps graciously towards the last titan and kills him. 'That's for the one you just ate.' She moves between the trees with her hooks. Not a moment later, she reaches the second titan from behind, and, with a precise cut, he drops dead. The third and fourth are dead in no time. She kills the fifth just as quickly before the fourth is even on the ground. 'Big and stupid, huh.'
'Jean!'
'I know, but we have one titan instead of six!' Jean sees only one ugly titan following them.
'That means only one thing! Shadow! Stop having all the fun to yourself!' Hange yells with a frown.
'Shadow?' Eren looks behind him and realizes that there is indeed but one titan left. 'Who is that?'
Hange lets out a sigh. 'An ally, but that's all we know. He kills titans...'
'Wait? You tell me that someone lives outside the walls?' Eren can't believe it.
'As Hange said, that's all we know. Shadow helped us multiple times. I'm just glad that he didn't kill all of them.' Levi keeps his eyes forward. 'Stick to the plan!'
Armin has trouble believing that someone could live outside the walls. 'But isn't it suicide? Living out here, I mean?' He did see something move in the shadows but couldn't make out who it was. Only that the outfit is somewhat similar to their outfit.
'Why? That's our goal in the end as well,' explains Hange.
Freya slings onto a branch farther up in front of the group. Where she crosses her arms. 'Yes, why would you settle with a small part of a much larger island?' Smiling, she follows the group from a distance. Witnessing that they capture the titan. 'If you want that one alive then this is where I leave you. Good luck.'
