_____________Your POV____________
It was the next day, and you were finally allowed to leave bed, without aniki scolding you.
But, that was when you remembered the order that Levi had given you, which explains why you were on you hands and knees, scrubbing furiously at the Mess Hall floor.
You let out a sigh, as you wiped your forehead, the white cleaning cloth still clutched in your hand.
"Am I done yet?" You ask, as you turned towards Levi, who has been keeping an eye on you the entire time you've been cleaning.
"You missed a spot, brat." Levi says, as he points to the spot that you just scrubbed.
"But, I already cleaned that spot." You whine.
"Tch, stop whining, and clean it again." Levi says, as he resumes his leaning position on the nearby wall.
"Meanie." You grumble under your breath.
"What was that?" Levi hissed.
"Nothing." You squeaked, as you continued to scrub the already spotless area that Levi had pointed to.
This went on for another half an hour, before the rest of Squad Levi walked in. Aniki coming into the room last.
They all stared at you, as you continued to scrub the floor.
"What's going on?" Gunther asks, as he raises an eyebrow.
"Punishment." Levi says, still leaning on the wall.
"For what?" Eren asks.
"For being an idiot." Levi says, with his usual emotionless face.
"Hey! I'm not an idiot!" You whine, causing the entire squad to laugh.
"You can be an airhead at times, (F/N)." Eld says, chuckling.
"Oh yeah, name one time." You say, as you stand up, pointing an accusing finger at him.
"You tripped over a bucket that was placed in the middle of the floor." Gunther states.
"Oh, and the time where you tripped over your own feet, while walking up the stairs." Petra chimes in.
"Or how about-" Before Auruo could finish, you cut him off.
"Okay, I get it, already!"
They all laughed, as you puffed your cheeks out, in a small pout.
"You look even more ridiculous, when you do that (F/N)." Aniki states emotionlessly.
"Ehhh~, not you too, aniki~." You whine, as you drop your head in defeat, causing more laughter to be heard from the small group.
That was when Erwin came in, next to him was a blond hair boy, about the same age as Eren.
"Squad Levi, this is Armin, I believe he has figured out who the Female Titan is." When Erwin said this, the room became silent, as everyone had a serious look on their face, even you had one.
"Yes, and I believe that it's someone who is in the MPs, her name is Annie Leonhardt." As soon as the kid, now know as 'Armin', said this, Eren began to deny it, not believing that this 'Annie' person was the Female Titan.
'Did he possibly know her?' You think to yourself.
As you were lost in thought, all you were able to catch was something about you, going with Armin, Eren, and a person named Mikasa.
"No way, (F/N) isn't going to be apart of this plan." Aniki states.
"She's important if the plan will succeed without any casualties." Erwin defends.
Before aniki could say anything else, you interrupted him.
"Aniki, I'm going." You say, confidently.
"No way, I refuse." Aniki states.
"Aniki, at some point, you to have to make a decision. Boundaries don't keep people out, they fence you in. Life is messy. That's how we're made. So, you can waste your life drawing lines for yourself, or, you can live your life crossing them, and there are some lines that are way too dangerous to cross. But, here's what I know: if you are willing to take the chance, the view from the other side is spectacular."
Everyone was silent at what you said, that was, until Eren said, "Yeah, I agree with her."
"Me too." Eld said, as he placed a hand on your shoulder.
"Hey, don't forget about me." Gunther said with a chuckle.
"Or me." Petra said as she wrapped her arm around your other shoulder.
"Tch, me too." Auruo said, as he gave you a smirk.
Aniki just stares at you for a few moments, before clicking his tongue, as he said, "Do whatever you want."
"Then its settled. (F/N) will assist Eren Yeager, Armin Arlert, and Mikasa Ackerman, in trying to capture Annie Leonhardt." After Erwin said that, he began the details on the plan.
-----------------Time Skip-----------------
You waited next to Armin, as he calls Annie over.
She looks you up and down, before asking, "Who is this?"
"(F/N), nice to meet you." You say, as you gave her a small smile.
She looks at you suspiciously, as she asks, "Why are you two here then?"
"Eren is about to be executed, and we need your help." Armin explains.
"Explain, why should I help?" Annie states as she crosses her arms.
You opened your mouth, as you say, "Listen, I am not fully human either. I have abilities that no humans should ever posses, and because of this, I can connect with Eren on how it feels to be a bit different. But, all my life I have been absolutely terrified. Terrified that if I make a mistake, or take a risk in something, I would fail, and that would cause more trouble to the people around me. But this time, this time is different. I want to take a risk, and help Eren. I'm not saying this just because I pity him, or because he is different, just like me, but because he is my friend."
Annie stares at you for a few moments, almost judging what you said, but that was when she finally said, "Fine, I'll help."
I let out a sigh of relief, as you, Annie, Armin, Eren, and the girl you saw before, known as Mikasa, began to walk towards the underground district.
'First step of the plan, complete.' You think, as you finally reach the stairs to the underground district.
You take a deep breath, before starting down the stairs, only to stop midway, when Annie refused to come along.
You droned out most of the conversation, as you began to think of an alternative plan, if this one didn't work.
But, that was cut off, when Mikasa shouts at Eren to be quiet.
'Crap, she blew it.' You think, as you brought your gaze to Annie, who began to laugh.
She then said, "You made your bet, but now its my turn!"
She brought her hand to her mouth, but Armin fired off the flair, giving the signal to the surrounding survey corps members, who were dressed as citizens of the walls.
They all restrain Annie, but, as she was being retained, a hook like object came out of her ring, as she cut her finger.
Your eyes widen, as you grabbed Eren, as Mikasa grabs Armin, going further into the tunnel, but that was when Annie's titan hand, began to destroy it.
Blocking both ways with debris, as a hole was knocked through the ceiling.
You shot your wire out of the tunnel, and began to go from building to building, trying to find a good opening in order to attack Annie.
But, when you finally went to attack, she brought her arm around, trying to hit you, but you luckily dodged in time.
You went to attack again, and this time, you managed to cut her arm, but that didn't help much on slowing her down.
That as when Mikasa joined you, as you both continued to try and attack Annie.
But, as you went in for another attack, that was when Eren showed up in his titan form, and attacked her.
You carefully land on a nearby roof, as Eren gets knocked into a nearby building, but he was still holding onto Annie.
That was when, she began to smash his head in.
Eren goes limp, allowing Annie to run away, right towards the wall.
You grit your teeth together, as you shot off after the Female Titan, but right before you got to her, you saw Eren's titan form, covered in flames.
You moved out of the way, as Eren tackles Annie down.
He then begins to pummel her, but Annie kicks him off, and begins to climb up the wall.
Your eyes widen for a moment, before you quickly shot off towards her hands, you managed to cut off the fingers to one hand, as Mikasa gets the other one.
As Annie falls back, Mikasa lands on her forehead, and says something, before the Female Titan plummets to the ground, where Eren continues his assault, until he literally decapitated her head off.
Eren then leans down towards the nape of the neck, and rips it off, and that was when a bright light engulfs Annie's human form, along with Eren's titan form.
As you saw this, you went to help Eren, but a blur of green beats you to it.
You see Levi cutting Eren out, as he says, "Don't eat a valuable witness, you idiot."
You smirk a bit at the comment, but your face turns serious, as you saw Annie's form in a crystal like cocoon.
As you land next to Levi, you saw a boy with two toned hair, stabbing at the crystal with an already broken sword.
Levi places a hand on the boy's shoulder, stopping him from stabbing the crystal.
"What do we do now?" You ask, as you stare at Annie's crystalized form.
"Tch, I don't even know." Levi says, as he walks over towards Erwin.
As you went to walk away, however, you felt as if a pair of eyes were on you, but when you turned around, you saw no one was there.
You raise an eyebrow, as you brush the thought away, as you began walking towards Mikasa, in order to see if Eren was alright.
