Confession

Hanji's POV

All I remember... was being put into that car- roughly. My stomach was beginning to hurt, but they didn't care. My eyes hurriedly looked around for Levi, and I heard him faintly... just calling my name. Levi was... resisting. I wanted to run out and stop Levi from attacking- but it was too late. He was attacking back, keeling over after attacking 3 officers at once.

I wanted to scream to him, to tell him to calm down... to tell him I was safe. But... he was resisting. I could hear his muffled cries that were meant for me. This was one thing why I chose him over anything else. I... I didn't want him hurt. I didn't want him to hurt others. Resisting... one thing I couldn't do in my physical state.

Soon, so many officers were able to handle Levi and arrested him. I was taken away once I saw him being limply being carried to another car. Levi...

Coleman's POV

Between Levi Ackerman and Hanji Zoe, Levi was very explosive than the last time I saw him. I saw him freaking out, attacking anyone who came near him. All he cried was for Hanji... and he would calm down. I only denied the request because I wouldn't know if they were together on these kills. Something didn't seem right...

Levi was calm and cold before- avoiding questions and talking to me directly. Now, he was explosive and asking all about Hanji. On the other hand, Hanji stayed quiet and shifted uncomfortably. When we first met... they were so different. Hanji was heart-broken and we labeled her as a killer. Who was the true killer? Hanji? Levi? Or both?

I couldn't tell. I couldn't get an answer from either of them. Hanji was on the verge of breaking... and we already told her about everything- even making her take tests to see if she was drugged or anything. And Levi... I feel like he's willing to give answers if I gave Hanji to him. Or... could I possibly get answers...?

Walking into the interrogation room with Levi inside, he scowled at me with such deadly eyes. So deadly... I've never seen them before. Quietly, I took a deep breath and began my tales of lies. "So... Hanji admitted it."

Immediately, he perked up with worries in his eyes. I never noticed it. He was worried about her. Levi might've lied to me if it meant protecting her- from us framing her as a murderer? Why was she so important to Levi?

"Admitted killing them all. She's going to jail."

"You can't..." He growls loudly, staring me down. "She's innocent."

I felt like I caught him. I could tell he was going to be confessing and we can arrest the real murderer. "Innocent? All evidence points to her. Everyone she killed has been close to her. Why are you protecting an innocent woman? We're putting someone away."

Levi stayed silent for a bit, looking emotionlessly towards me. Was he thinking? What was he going to say? "Hanji..." He then looked up towards me. "She's innocent. I killed them.

Yes! I had him down. He confessed to me! I couldn't help but a give a smirk. I just needed the reason why. "What was your reason then? You had no connection to those young men. Why did you kill them, if you did?"

"They... they were in the way. They were gonna hurt my piece..."

"Piece?"

Levi nods, holding his hand to his heart. "She completes me... and I needed her to complete me. They were all gonna hurt her... so I defended her. I'll do anything to defend her- to protect her. She can't leave me... she just can't." Levi continued to repeat himself. 

"Levi Ackerman... you're under arrest for the murders of Erwin Smith, Moblit Berner, Miche Zacharias, and Jeremy Zoe."

Levi's POV

I didn't care when he forced me to walk out. All I cared was about Hanji... and her new baby. I saw her... hurt and torn apart. "Levi..." She says to me, approaching- but that damn guy stopped her from coming close to me. 

"Leave her be." The female officer calls out to the man I was with. "Let her see him."

Hanji was soon released and she wrapped her arms around me. I heard her breath heavily, nuzzling her head into my shoulder. "Levi..."

I took her scent in, not knowing when the last time I'll see her again. "Hanji... don't ever go away for my actions..." I whispered softly into her ear. "And take care of the baby..."

Soon, I felt tears dripping onto my shoulder. She was crying... why...? "Be safe... for me." She says as she pulled away. "Don't do anything stupid... you hear me?" I nodded, wanting to kiss her... but the officer who had me pulled me away. "Levi..."

"He needs to go." And with a forceful push, I was being taken away from her... why...? Why was I being taken away from her? I watched her fade away and I had hoped I could see her again someday... I just knew... I would see her again. I just knew it.

"I'm... I'm sorry... Hanji..." I say quietly to myself. Just like that... I felt like before. All the light fading and turning to different shades of gray. Just... dull and empty. My light... my missing part of me... she was going to be gone. I couldn't... stand it. But she would get hurt if I fight. I didn't want to hurt her or the baby. I would just have to stay alone and stay to the sidelines. I would do anything to keep her safe.

It was my fault she was in this position... and now, I'm paying the price. All I hoped was for her and my baby to be safe. I will see her again. I know it... I had to see her again. If I can't see or smell her... I'll go crazy with worry. What if something bad happens to her when I'm not there?! I had to see her- I just had to! Hanji... stay with me to the end... please...
