ErenXMikasa Smiling in the rain

Eren

   "Mikasa..." She quickly walked away to the left with her eyes glued to the ground.
"Mikasa!" I yelled, she ignored me.
I stood in the sand with Erika and AJ by me.
When Mikasa was out of our sight we walked back to the opposite direction with AJ and Erika close behind me.
"It's okay Papa..." AJ held my hand. I smiled and slightly squeezed his hand. All the rest of the day I was in bed thinking about Mikasa.

Mikasa POV

"Mikasa you had the chance and you blew it!" Alina says poking my cheek.
"I know, I know, I told you it's trust issues..." I said staring at my hands in my lap.
"Mikasa. Let. Go. Of. The. Past!" She placed her hand on mine. "Move. On."

"Alina it's so hard for me to move on..." I replied. Why is she rushing me...?

"I know, but you can do it." She sighed.
Alina looked at the time and said. "I gotta go girl. I'll call you when I get home."
"Okay, have a safe trip back!" I said watching her walk away into the woods.
For my house there was a perfect way from the woods to the city just following the path.

I turned around to find a little girl behind me. "Hi Mikasa."

Eren POV

"PAPA! PAPA!" AJ shook me out of my sleep. "What's wrong?" I sat up quickly. "Erika's gone!" He said choking on a sob. "What?!" I stood up quickly searching the house.

"ERIKA!!" I yelled in fear that she was actually gone. I checked all the rooms in the house, under the tables, beneath the couch, the closets, cabinets, and beneath the beds. She wasn't anywhere!
Where could she have gone? I said taking a breather to take time to think.
I finally checked the shop when AJ ran outside talking to Conny.
Conny was walking down the street which Erika and AJ saw as their uncle. "Uncle Conny!" AJ yelled as I searched the shop yelling her name.
"What's up Big Time!" He said holding out his hand for a fist pump.
"Uncle Conny! Erika's gone!" AJ choked on a sob and ignored the fist pump.
Conny looked shocked as Sasha ran by his side. "Conny you went too far ahead!" Sasha whined playfully punching his arm.
"Aunt Sasha Erika is gone! She's missing!" AJ said. I walked up besides him as he held my shirt in fear.
"She's missing?" Sasha said worriedly.
I nodded my head as tears swelled up in my eyes.
"One thing we could do is help!" Conny smiled. "Right Sasha?"
"Yup!"
I smiled, "Thanks guys." We searched the whole store and the streets asking if anyone has seen her, but no sightings of her at all.
I decided to look at the shop one more time and saw a pink sticky note on the side of the counter.

      Went after Erika and Mikasa at her house
-?
                                    

"Argh! Dammit!" I said running towards Mikasa's direction.
"Please be okay Mikasa and Erika!" I murmured.

Mikasa POV

  "What are you doing here Erika it's so late?" I picked her up.
"I wanted-" she paused staring behind me.
"Erika?" I tilt my head to the side.
She pointed behind me. I turn around and see a figure in black. So tall and buff.

He cracked his neck holding up a knife pointing right at me. I quickly ran holding Erika tightly in my arms. I headed straight for the house locking the door behind me.
I took Erika and hid in my closet that blended in with the wall towards the canister.

"Mikasa I want daddy.." She whispered.
"Shh it's going to be okay." I whispered placing her behind me so I would get hurt rather than her.
I heard soft footsteps coming from the left walking past the closet.
I clenched the wall tightly.
His footsteps grew louder. I grew quieter.
"Erika listen to me." I turned around towards her.
"If I get dragged away I want you to run out of here as quick as you can back towards the woods and get some help, okay?" I whispered moving a piece of hair behind her ear.

She nodded. I quickly noticed that she backed up against the wall looking behind me. Oh no.
I felt a pair of hands grab my ankles and pull me out of the closet. I screamed trying to crawl back.
Erika quickly ran out finding a window to jump out.
The man pinned me to the hard cold floor holding my hands tight, placed one knee on my back and held my head down.
He quickly noticed Erika and ran after her. I got up as well chasing after him.
Erika stood on the counter trying to pry the window open, before he could lay a hand on her I jumped in front of him and tackled him to the floor.
"Erika! Run!" I yelled tackling him.
Both the man and I wrestled each other's arms throwing each other across the room.
"DON'T YOU EVER TOUCH HER!!" I punched his right cheek.
He quickly flipped me over and now he was on top of me.
"LET ME GO!!" I screamed as he held my hands above my head and pointed his knife close towards my eyes.
All I could do was stare at it, and if I moved around the blade would in-pale my gray eyes.

Just then a gun shot went flying past Jean shooting off a piece of his hair.
Erika reloaded it.
"Get any c-closer to her with that b-blade I'll shoot your head off." She placed her finger close to the trigger as the moon light lit her dark expression.

    He was off guard and I took the chance to flip him over and tackle him towards the floor giving Erika a chance to escape.
The door flew open revealing Eren, AJ, Sasha, and Conny.
Sasha and AJ quickly ran to Erika as Eren and Conny tackled the man.

I quickly scrambled away towards a corner to catch my breath.
Conny and Eren were both punching him left to right, but the man threw Conny leaving him flying towards the guest room.
"Conny!" Sasha screamed.
Both the man and Eren stood up tackling each other towards the front yard. I quickly ran outside watching what was happening.
They were both kicking each other's stomach and kneeing each other's head. At the point Eren was bleeding and couldn't see.

Eren POV

"So you wanna tell me why you're here?" I asked wiping blood from my mouth.
No reply. I threw a punch at him trying to take him off balance when it really got ME off balance.
The world became blurry and fuzzy to me as all I could see was a blade in his hand. The blade came hurdling toward me but a figure came in front of me and got cut.
I opened my eyes realizing who it was.
"MIKAAAASSSAAAAA!!!!"
