(F/n)'s POV

It's been a year since I've last seen my parents. I'm still not sure if they're alive or not but it doesn't matter now. Today is our first day in the trainees, and surprisingly Armin joined as well.

We were all standing in a line of a few rows while Keith Shadis would walk past us and if you were 'lucky' enough, he would walk up to you and shout in your face. He was walking down the line I was in and he was getting closer and closer to me.

I was hoping that he wouldn't stop on me. I noticed that he would only yell in your face if you looked really nervous just to intimidate you more. So I put on a stoic emotionless face because I wasn't in the mood to be shouted at.

Armin was a couple people over from me on my left. Sadly, poor Armin got shouted at. But my stoic face broke once I saw Armin being shouted at. I felt really bad for him.

After he was all in his face he looked over at me, and I was watching them. "Nice eyepatch, think I'll call you patchy the pirate! What's your name?" He shouted. I quickly looked straight up at him since he was in my face now and saluted.

"(F/n) (l/n), sir!" I shouted back. "I can't hear you!" He shouted again. "(F/n) (l/n), sir!" I shouted even louder. I glanced both left and right and noticed that everybody was staring at me.

"Oh, we have a (l/n) kid!" He raised an eyebrow. "Yes sir!" I shouted. everybody gasped and I saw them whispering to each other. "If you don't mind me asking, what's the big deal?" I asked.

"If I'm correct, your father Seth (l/n) is one of the best soldiers in the Survey Corps!" Shadis shouted back. I froze in place just from hearing somebody say his name. Thoughts racing through my mind about if he's even alive or not.

I was so spaced out I forgot that I was even being shouted at. "(L/n)!" Shadis shouted and head-butted me. I stood there and finally came back to reality and just looked up at him and furrowed my brows.

Everyone's eyes widened at me, "Looks like (l/n) can take a beating to the head better than Kirstein!" Shadis shouted and I saw a boy holding his head. Guess he got hit in the head too.

Soon enough he left and continued down the line. I saw Armin looking at me from the corner of my eye, so I mouthed 'I'm fine' to him. I saw him grin a little and turned to face the front again.

>>>Time skip>>>

We were all sitting at a table in the mess hall eating dinner when everybody gathered around Eren asking him questions. I sat by myself in the back and watched as everyone was at Eren's table, except for a few others which sat at the tables across from his.

I stopped looking at them and just rested my head on the palm of my hand and stared at my bread I was eating. After a few minutes it started to get louder in the room, so I glanced up and saw Eren fighting with that one boy that got head-butted.

I rolled my eye and watched as they started shoving each other. When I finished eating I got up and walked over to them. I stood in between them and grabbed the boy's wrist before he could punch Eren in the face.

They both stared at me as I just blinked and put his hand down to his side and looked over at Eren. "You alright?" I asked him. He quickly nodded and I looked over at the other boy.

"What's your name?" I asked him. "Jean Kirstein." He frowned. "Ok, horse face. How about you leave him alone and pick on somebody your own size." I raised an eyebrow. "Ooooo!" Everyone laughed.

"Or not pick on anybody at all." Eren mumbled. Another boy with brown hair and brown eyes with freckles showed up behind Jean and grabbed his shoulder. "Come on, just leave them alone." He said and walked back to their table.

I gave one last look to Eren and then walked outside to my dorm. I saw Shadis walk in there and start shouting at them, probably for Jean and Eren yelling at each other during their fight.

This was going to be a long three years if Eren and Jean don't get along. I sighed and sat on my bunk and started to untie my eyepatch and placed it under my pillow before falling asleep.

*Morning*

I woke up pretty early, it was probably around five. I sat up and stretched my arms then put my hand under the pillow to grab my eyepatch. It wasn't there. 'Maybe it just fell on the floor.' I thought to myself.

I quietly got out of bed so I wouldn't wake up the other girls in the room. I checked the floor but I still saw no sign of it. 'Ok...did it slip between the bed and the wall?' I asked myself and checked the side of the bed that was against the wall.

'Hmm....I have to find it before training! I can't risk injuring my eye.' I thought as I changed into uniform in the bathrooms. When I finished I waited for one of the girls to wake up so I could ask them.

"Hey Mikasa, can you help me?" I asked when I saw her enter the mess hall where I was at. "Sure. What can I help with?" She replied. "I lost my eyepatch and I can't go without it." I answered. She nodded and after we ate we searched every where for it.

>>>Time Skip>>>

It was six in the morning now and we still couldn't find my eyepatch! Training starts in a half hour and I really needed it, I tried asking anyone I would come across. But I got no help or luck with that.

I eventually gave up and just found a bandana and tied it around my head so it would cover my eye. "Sorry we couldn't find it." Mikasa said as we walked out to the training grounds.

"It's ok..I'll find it later." I sighed. I saw Jean with that freckled boy again, and when he saw me he started to smirk. "Looking for this?" He asked and took something out of his pocket.

It was my eyepatch, "Give it back!" I yelled and ran towards him. "Nope!" He laughed. "Kirstein, I swear to God that you won't be able to walk if you don't give that back!" I shouted.

"Ha! I'd like to see you try." He laughed. That was it, I was about to lose it so I said, "Alright. I guess I'll go to training." I shrugged and started to walk away.

I heard him laughing and talking about how weak I was for giving up. Oh but he didn't see this coming! I quickly turned back around while he had his back to me and I charged at him. I jumped on his back which made him fall to the ground.

"Ah-what are you doing?!" He shouted while trying to get up. I didn't answer and instead I sat on his back and pulled his arms back. "Ow! Stop, stop! Please!" He cried in pain. I just smirked and pulled harder.

"(L/n) and Kirstein, what's going on over here?" We heard Shadis shout. Jean looked up and started to laugh nervously. I got off of him and saluted before answering, "He took my eyepatch, sir." I said.

"Come on Kirstein, give patchy the pirate her eyepatch back." He laughed. Jean sighed and got up from the ground before handing it back over. "Thank you, horse face." I smirked. He growled and walked away.

"You didn't salute, Kirstein!" Shadis shouted. Jean groaned and walked back over and saluted. Before he could walk off again Shadis stopped him again. "And I never dismissed you!" He shouted.

"Sorry, sir." Jean said. "Now get to training!" Shadis shouted before walking away. "Yes, sir!" Jean and I both shouted and walked to the training grounds.

Today we were doing some sparring and soon we'll learn how to use the 3D maneuver gear. My sparring partner today was some girl named Sasha. Or also known as, 'Potato Girl'.

*6 months later*

Today we were going to start learning the 3DMG, but first we have to take a balance test before we can do so. "Alright Jaeger, let's see what you got!" Shadis shouted at Eren once he got finished getting hooked up.

As soon as he was lifted off the ground and into the air he leaned forward and hit his head on the ground. "Next!" Shadis shouted, this time it was my turn.

Eren was unhooked and then I was clipped onto all of the hooks and stuff. I was up for a few seconds before I started leaning back. I quickly shielded the back of my head so I wouldn't hit it and cause some damage.

"Looks like you two suck at this!" Shadis shouted, "No sir! There's something wrong with it!" I shouted back as I was still hanging upside down. "Let's get someone good at this to try it out. Ackerman, get over here!" He shouted at Mikasa.

She got over and helped me up before getting on herself. She started leaning a bit but caught herself. "There is something wrong with it." Mikasa said. Shadis lifted an eyebrow and examined the belts.

"It's broken." He mumbled. "Guess you wimps were right, now get on the other one and show me what you got!" Shadis shouted at Eren and I. Thankfully we passed the test of the balancing part for 3DMG.

*That night*

We were all in the mess hall eating dinner when I couldn't help but notice some horse-faced-moron staring at me. "What do you want, pony boy?" I asked and turned my head to look at him.

He sat at the table across the isle next to the table I was at, "I just can't stand you! I mean, you're so weak." He chuckled. "Oh...is that so?" I mumbled and looked back down at my food.

"Ha! See, you just gave up on me! That proves you're weak!" Jean shouted and started laughing. 'That's it, you pushed way too many buttons.' I thought as I quickly stood up from my chair and tackled him to the ground.

"What the-" he started to say but I cut him off by punching him while I sat on top of him on the floor. Everyone in the mess hall gathered around us and started chanting at us. All except Armin and Mikasa.

"Fight, fight, fight!" They all shouted. "What is going on in here, little shits?!" We heard a voice boom from the entrance. Everybody froze in place before turning around and saluting for Shadis.

I stopped beating Jean up, and stood and saluted as well. "Answer my question!" He shouted again. "Kirstein and I were fighting, sir." I answered. "Kirstein and (l/n), laps now! Until the sun rises!" He screamed and pointed towards the door and Jean scrambled to stand up and headed for the exit.

"I didn't dismiss you!" He shouted and Jean froze. "S-sorry, sir!" He saluted. "I swear you will never learn!" He muttered. "You're dismissed!" He said before leaving.

After he left, Jean and I went outside to start running until the sun rises. It was around seven thirty right now so we would be running for around ten hours. Well...I will probably be running for almost that long. I'm not sure how long Jean can survive.

'Let's get this over with.' I thought and started to run but at a slow pace, so I wouldn't tire myself out in a few minutes.
