--Levi PoV--

Amongst the smell of gunpowder, smoke, the found of hollow pops cracking in my ears along with the muffled yelling of many different voices. The living room is looking like a war zone, fitting for the situation. Bullet holes torn through everything they hit, stuffing from the couches scattered on the floor along with the mix of white and bauge drywall. My black jeans fashioned like the aftermath of fallout, as a pattern of white dots. A notice filled my ears, one of pure joy and insanity, glancing at the boy crouched behind the love seat, threw his head back letting out a hysterical laugh escaping from his lips. Watching his eyes lock with mine, filled with excitement, insanity, and joy. A smile twitching at the corners of my mouth, narrowing my eyes before standing quickly, aiming as steady as possible through the adrenaline. Three loud Pops ringing out followed by one loud scream of agony and two quiet thuds of bodies hitting the concrete. Ducking down behind the sofa again, glaring at the smoke escaping the battle of the silver handgun in my grasp. Feeling a chuckle escape from the back of my throat, second later it turning into a full laugh of excitement. Glancing at the boy after another few shots rang out, his face to match mine full of adrenaline and a high from the excitement.

"You guys need to get out of here!" A muffled voice snapped me back into a slight fraction of reality, nodding at the two toned figure beside me.

"Hey, brat" yelling over as he glared daggers into me, causing me to smirk. Motioning to the kitchen to the back door. His smile grew even wider. Hm. Maybe he wants to drive again.

"Cover is Pony boy" giving a pat on his shoulder.

"Dammit that's not my name!" I laughed amused as a borage of fire erupted as I sprinted for the back door the tall figure out in front of me, bursting into the cold morning air hitting me like a brick, muttering a small fuck under my breath before quickly getting to the car, nearly ripping off the door swinging it open, throwing both bags in the back tossing the keys over top the roof to the brat. Both doors slam shut, engine roaring to life and the screeching of the tires on concrete, letting a empty clip hit the car roof, a metallic click after sliding another clip in, putting the window down all the way, checking behind us a familiar black SUV speeding up behind us, sons of bitches know how to handle a fight even still.
There window was down and Jean was smiling.

"You can't get rid of us that easy wolf!" -J
"I couldn't hear you over the sound of your cars over-compensation pony boy!" -L

Eren laughed "race you to the cabin"
The car slammed into gear and was accompanied by a loud roar of the engine.

--Time Skip--

Staring at the nothing out the window of the car, gripping the handgun still, the edges of the handle digging into my skin lightly, the Sun was out now bathing the world in its warmth with still a hint of cold in the wind from the passing winter. Switching hands on the handle of the gun, letting my right arm hang out the window comfortably, glancing at the side mirror watching the familiar black SUV drive behind us casually. Narrowing my eyes to a small object rolling across the pavement I front of their car, raising my eyebrow before a loud bang erupted followed by the explosion that caused it, our car swerved from the blast, losing control and slamming into the highway divider with a heart sinking crunch of metal. A loud horn filling my ears, taking a deep breath before unhooking the seatbelt squeezed tightly across my chest. Watching the boys figure groan and lift their head from the wheel. The horn ringing stopping abruptly, shaking my head as each noise was muffled. Glaring at the door beside me that was jarred open, kicking it harshly with my boot, followed by slowly staggering out of the vehicle, reaching into the back of the car grabbing my bag. Slipping it over my shoulder, pushing the door open more reaching inside, grabbing the boy my his shirt and his arm. Dragging him out of the car seat, over the gear box and passengers seat out onto the pavement, leaning him against the car, looking him over. Tapping his face lightly,

"How many fingers?" Holding up my pointer,middle and ring finger.
"T-three"
"What about now?" Holding up my middle finger. He laughed
"You're an ass"
"Try and get another car, got it? I'll get the other two" nodding after he composed himself, turning away jogging down the highway to the black overturned SUV, glass crunching under my boots, along with concrete scattered from the blast. Crouching near the drivers door, a bloody face meeting mine glaring before the figure moved and groaned.

"Don't just stare..h-help me out do dick" the voice says weakly, gripping onto the doorframe, one boot planted on the side panel of the car. Pulling the door from the vehicle slowly with a screeching metallic sound giving just enough room to reach in and unhook the seatbelt, dragging the figure out of the wreck, draping their arm over my shoulder holding them up slowly walking over the Eren who had a civilian laying on the ground outside a white Honda car. Watching as he raised his gun to us, glaring at him watching his eyes go behind us. Picking up the pace, leaning Jean against the car door, rounding the vehicle before propping myself up onto the trunk sitting uncomfortably. Glaring at the guns pointed at us a familiar figure in the middle for front holding a arm close to his body blood a slow drip down his arm soaking through the torn clothing. Chambering a bullet pointing in their general direction before a hand on top of the barrel lowers is to the pavement. Glaring at the figure of Jean out of the corner of my eye as he was holding his weight against the car for support.

"W-what are you doing over there.." He said weakly.
"He needs to die, Jean."
There was a silence
"He might have done unspeakable things but he helped us. Do you forget that. You've thrown away the blood he spiller to get us out" his voice was almost pleading.
"Hand him over Jean, it can all be over and we can go home."
We both exchanged harsh glares, listening to him curse under his breath. I chuckled which turned into a full blow fit of laugher, gripping onto my side with my free hand.

"You? Of all people. Well isn't that just, tragically romantic. I kinda figured something was up when I found this little gem" fishing inside my jeans pocket pulling up a black business card with a phone number etched in silver between my index and middle finger.
"Did rabbit set you guys up. Be honest."

"You don't have the right to ask questi-"

"And you don't have the right to be a douchecanoe, but here you are." Glaring at the figure. Watching his arm twitch quickly jumping down from the hood, shoving Jean into the backseat slamming the door, a barrage of gunfire peppering the body of the vehicle. Throwing the passenger door open. A sharp melting pain followed by burning spreading through my right arm and shoulder nearly falling into the seat the car was already off, just enough time to close the door with a slam. Grasping my right shoulder, glaring at the red that painted my fingers.

"Tch, Well isn't he just a treat"
