2 Time Skip, Joining the Cadets!

(Hey! I hope you all enjoy! If you do then don't forget to feed me power stones and to support me at PayPal.Me/YugiohGod.)

--2 Years Later--

"Aunt Zoe, I'm ready to go." I, a 13 year old 5 foot 9 inch boy, with pitch black shoulder length hair, an average looking but masculine face, and a broad and powerful build declares.

"Huh? Already? Come on Izuna, It's so early can't we run a few more experiments?" Zoe asks with a pouting expression as she leans her head out of the kitchen. She has mild red hair, a narrow face, pale skin, a lean but muscular build, and stands around 5 foot 5 inch.

"Yes already, and no, no more of those experiments." I grumble. I may love aunt, but I hate those experiments. They're long and exhausting. The only reason I've agreed to them in the first place is that I want to find out what they are just as much as the scouts do.

She then steps out of the kitchen in her scout uniform, "Fine, but remember the rules. Don't tell anyone about your unique abilities. Understand?"

"Yes mam. Don't worry, I know what'll happen if I'm exposed. There's no way that I'll allow the Military Police to study me like some sort of lab rat. After all that'll mean that I won't be able to discover what I am and what's beyond those walls." I state calmly with a serious expression.

"Alright, just making sure." Zoe then returns to the kitchen, but after only a millisecond her head appears out once again, "Can we please do just one more experiment? Just one?" She begs looking at me hopefully.

"No way. I'm outta here. Bye Aunt, take care." I shrug as I open the door to head out.

She smiles sadly, "You too kidoo. Take care." As I open the door and begin to walk out of the house I then bump into something.

"What the..." Before I can even finish my sentence I suddenly feel an intense pain in my stomach causing me to double over. As soon as my knees hit the ground a powerful kick meets my face and sends me crashing to the floor.

"Tch, watch where you're going brat." A familiar short man with an intense gaze and black hair demands.

Rubbing my face as I stand up I reply, "Sorry Captain."

"Tch. Your joining the trainee's today right? Remember the rules brat. Only use it if you absolutely have to. Understood brat?" Levi demands.

Standing back up I salute him as I've been taught and shout, "Yes sir!"

Levi then nods, "Good, now get going brat."

With that, I then walk out of the house and head towards the recruitment stand. Meanwhile Levi then turns to Hanji, "So? What do you think?"

Hanji just sighs, "You know exactly what I think. He will make an excellent soldier. As for his titan like abilities." She shakes her head, "I can't explain them at all. The best I can think of is that he's some sort of half titan."

She then walks around the counter and stares down at Levi, "As for convincing him to join the scouts, that's his decision and I won't let anyone force him to do anything. At first I was just interested in his abilities, but I now love him like he's my own son. I think he's already made up his mind about that anyways so Erwin won't have to worry too much about that anyways."

"Hn." Levi grunts while nodding.

"Would you like some tea?" Hanji asks curiously.

"Please." Levi replies while sitting down on the sofa next to the coffee table. He then smirks slightly as he looks out the window and sees me running towards the recruitment stand. "See you soon brat." He whispers.

--Time Skip 3 Days--

"Oi, you there! Who are you!" A tall broad shouldered man wearing a dark green army jacket with a insignia of five sword blades crossing each other on his shoulder, a white shirt, leather pants and boots with a bald head and a seemingly permanent scowl on his face shouts at a short blond hair blue eyed boy who was standing in a salute, left arm behind the back, and his right arm curled in front of him his fist covering his heart.

He was standing in the mist of rows upon rows of trainees who were all here to join the army. They all wear brown army jackets with a insignia with two crossing swords on their shoulders, with similar white shirts, with white pants, and brown boots.

"Armin Arlert, from Zhiganshina!" The boy shouts in a nervous and fearful tone, you can hear a slight quiver in his voice as he replies.

The man scowls and leans forward to scream in the boys face, "Yeah? That's a stupid name. Your parents give you that?"

Shaking but standing his ground Armin replies, "My grandfather!"

"Arlert, what are you doing here!" The drill instructor shouts leaning forward aggressively.

"Trying to aid humanities victory against the titans!" Armin shouts back in a quivering yet somehow determined tone.

"That is indeed wonderful, you will make excellent titan food!" He shouts before moving on and screaming at another poor soul.

This time it happened to be a simple looking boy with blonde buzz cut hair and freckles named Thomas from Trost, a gate city of the second wall Wall Rose.

There were a select few of the Cadets who seemed to be spared from the onslaught of screaming and berating, these kids had a different aura to them than the others, they were the ones who had witnessed the titans slaughter everyone within Wall Rose or experienced some other atrocity that hardened their spirit and resolve.

They had already experienced their own rite of passage and any of this screaming would do nothing more than annoy them compared to what they previously endured.

His next target however was not spared. "Who Are you!" He screams.

The boy in question is tall standing at around 5ft 11 inches and has short brown hair with an undercut. He then replies, "Jean Kirschtein, from Trost!"

"What are you doing here?" The sergeant shouts.

Jean then smirks before replying, "I'm here to join the military police, for a life deep within the walls. Safe and sound."

The drill sergeant smirks, "Ho? Is that so? You want access to the interior."

Jean nods, "Yes sir!" The instant he responds, the sergeant takes a step forward and headbutts jean. This causes jean to shout and fall to the ground grasping his head in pain.

"Who said you could sit down? Anyone who can't handle this can never make it into the Military Police!" With that he proceeds to walk on to his next target.

"Your doing it wrong!" The man shouts at a short bald kid while picking him up by the head squeezing it causing immense pain.

"Connie Springer, is your heart on the right side of your chest? I explained that this salute demonstrates your resolve to devote your entire heart to the people, are you perhaps a fraud?"

Then, in a moment of silence between the yelling a loud crisp juicy *crunch* could be heard a few people to Connie's right.

Suddenly the entire field becomes dead silent. The Sargent slowly looks over to see a relatively tall girl with red hair tied back into a ponytail holding a potato with a bite sized chunk missing from it. She slowly chews the bite looking around realizing something wasn't right.

'Oh crap is she an idiot? She is so dead.' I think dumbfounded unsure whether to laugh or cry at the girls stupidity. The Sargent seems to find himself in a similar dilemma as he just stares at the girl dumbfounded. Never in his entire career has he ever been so utterly and completely disregarded.

"Hey you, what are you doing?" He asks while dropping the Connie to the ground and slowly turns to the girl. The girl who seems to not be paying him any attention whatsoever just takes another long slow bite out of the potato.

*Cruuunnnccchhh*

He the appears in front of the girls and screams "I am talking to you, what the hell do you think you are doing!"

The girl cocks her head to the side with a look of confusion. "I'm eating a boiled potato sir. The kitchen had a fresh batch and I couldn't resist!"

He then calmly asks, "Did you steal it? Why? Why would you choose to eat a potato now?"

The girl begins to sweat as she replies, "Letting it get cold would have been a waste so I decided to eat it now."

"I still don't understand. Why would you decide to eat that potato now?"

She looks at him confused, "Are you asking me why people eat potatoes?"

With this remark everyone just stares at her with their jaws dropped. How could anyone be so dense? I ask myself in stunned disbelief.

She then proceeds to break the potato in half and offer him half while puffing her cheeks out in a pouting manner, "Here, you can have half I guess." She grumbled obviously not pleased that she is sharing her food.

The Sergeant in shock, just slowly takes the half and mutters, "Half?"

The as if he snapped out of a trance he begins screaming at her, "I want you to run until your useless food loving, potato stealing self drops dead! Also no dinner for you. You run till you bite the dust then head straight back to your barracks do you understand me soldier!"

Upon hearing the words 'no dinner' she immediately begins whining but is sent off to run. "As for the rest of you let's get started with physical condition I'm gonna turn your useless twig like bodies into hardcore fighting machines! You understand Cattle?" He shouts at them.

"Yes sir!" The hundreds of voices of the cadets ring out in unison. So begins the first day of training.
