"Wake up, soldier. Hard day ahead of you" shouted commander Erwin in my ear.

"Commander Erwin, sir. Wait what?"

"Today you're getting experimented on my captain Levi and Section commander Hanji"

"R-right"

He left me to get dressed which I did reluctantly.

"Ah! There's my favorite titan!" Hanji shouted as I walked into the dining hall. It was still dark and a cup of tea was shoved into my hands as I sat down. "Nice to see you have hands again!"

"Thank you, commander."

"Ahh! So you're the rookie titan shifter. You aren't just a rumor!" Said a sandy blond kid with an undercut. "Jean Kirschtien."

"Ah. I'm Daniel Hughes. Nice to make your acquaintance, sir"

"Fuckin posh, fresh out of training I'll bet" he laughed, ruffling my hair and sitting beside me.

"Okay, okay, you can meet the others later, I need to experiment!" Hanji shouted, dragging me away and outside.

"Now, its dark. I want to see how that affects your titan form. Can you shift for me?" She drooled.

I dragged my sharp nails up the inside of my arm and there was a crack of lightening as my titan form appeared around me.

Hanji shrieked as I flexed, feeling slightly depleted of energy.

"Alright beautiful, wave your hand if you feel more tired than usual." She told me and I waved my hand, causing her to moan slightly.

"Can you pick me up, I want to look at those beautiful pointed ears of yours" she asked and I plucked her off the ground, placing her on my shoulder softly. "Exquisite... yes, so perfect..." she muttered, climbing inside my ear, causing me to twitch slightly and let out a loud rumble. "Sorry darling!" She apologized.

Three hours later, it was light and I was sprinting around with hanji on my shoulder, catching and killing titans as she ordered.

Then She was drawing me, slowly and carefully sketching every hollow and curve.

"Hanji are you nearly done?" Demanded Captain Levi. "I need to test his skill."

"Not even close, captain!"

"Hanji are you fuckin serious-look whatever. I'll stay and watch. Go kill some titans, boy" he demanded and I went back outside to the inside of wall Maria.

I used my thirty meter form to kick and stamp them to pieces, killing every titan I could see, carefully protecting Levi and Hanji.

"Alright that's enough. Back to base" Levi said and I sprinted back to the base, laying on the ground and tearing the flesh off the nape of my neck, pulling my tiny body out of the massive steaming titan corpse.

"Wait, how tall are you?" Hanji asked.

"Uh, 5'1..." I panted desperately, pushing myself off the massive body. A flash of happiness ran across Levi's face as I lay on the grass, sweating desperately. "C-can you get me a drink? I don't get thirsty in there but hunger and thirst come back with a burning passion-" I coughed desperately. "They come back when I'm out of the body." I kept coughing, rolling onto my hands and knees, coughing roughly as sweat dropped down my face.

Hanji passed me a glass of water and I drank it down quickly, tipping some of the rest of it over my head.

"Jesus Christ, you're having a nose bleed!" Cackled Hanji as blood and sweat poured off me.

"Hanji that's enough. The poor boy has been through enough." Levi said, kneeling beside me and handing me a handkerchief.

"I think my ribs are broken. I'm not-I'm not meant to be in for so long" I panted desperately.

Steam started rising off my body aggressively, my torn muscles and broken bones healing slowly. I lay back on the ground and curled into a ball, falling asleep in a pool of my own blood and sweat.

I woke up in a soft bed, cleaned of blood and sweat, a cold towel dabbing my face.

"C-can you stop? I'm fine, I promise" I said, opening my eyes and looking straight up into azure ones. "Oh, hey."

"Hi! I'm Armin Arlert but you can call me armin." He said as I sat up.

"I'm Dan. I assume you know that though."

"Yeah. Hanji took skin and blood samples from you and your Titan body by the way"

"Damnit."

"Ah, finally. Someone of an acceptable age who can explain this shit" said a dark haired boy, waking into the room, followed by a girl who looked very similar.

"Dan, these are Samson and Leigh Ackerman. Levi and Hanjis kids" armin explained.

"They're divorced now. Dad had an affair with Eren Jaeger. Gosh you look surprisingly good for someone who's just nearly died!" Samson told me.

"Jesus you sounds like your mum. I'm a Titan shifter-" he screeched, cutting me off.

"Ahhhhh! Can you...?" He screamed.

"Calm the fuck down, Samson. Let the poor kid speak." Told his sister, calming me slightly.

"I really can't shift right now I shifted earlier and stayed like that but it nearly killed me, I don't know"

"Ahhhh" he moaned, touching my scalding hot chest.

"I'm healing right now dude you might wanna not do that" I warned.

"Alright asshole, let's get you to my dad." Leigh told me, grabbing me by the arm and yanking me up.

"Can I put my clothes on first? Also what is it with Ackermans and grabbing me by the arms Jesus Christ."

"Get dressed quickly. I'll be outside."

I got up and put my jeans on, putting the belts on over them and then throwing a shirt on. I put my jacket on over the top and was ready to go. I admired the Scout emblem on my jacket, looking at it and remembering my cadet emblem.

"Alright Leigh let's go" I told her, walking outside and into the hallway.

"Alright asshole." She set off down the corridor and I followed her down, going to Levi's office.

She shoved me in and I sat down as commanded.

"Soldier. Are you sure this ability is under control?" Levi demanded.

"Yes sir. I believe that with some more practice I will be more than capable at staying in Titan form for much longer than I could today. I merely need more resistance."

"Kid, your organs were scrambled. Nearly every bone in your body was crushed. We didn't know how to pick you up because you were a fleshy lump." He told me causing me to laugh slightly. "This is not a laughing matter."

"Yeah but everything grows back so it's not like it's a problem"

"It is a problem. You're one of our greatest assets. We can't risk it. I think you should train very carefully. That and you make me look tall when you stand next to me."

"You could just wear stilts.."

"Are you suicidal or something, brat?"

"Actually yes but that's not the point."

"Look bitch you can train but we aren't putting you in the field yet. Too many unknowns." I nodded courteously. "That said, you're training today. With me. Hand I hand combat is going to be incredibly important for this." And I nodded again, following him as he got up and walked outside. "I'll have you training in Titan form with Eren Jaeger as well."

We went outside and trained for a few hours until I could easily defeat the taller man.

Eren came outside and shifted. I copied him quickly and Levi sprinted out of the way immediately.

Eren threw the first punch and I dodged expertly, getting under the punch and knocking him into the ground, putting him in a choke hold. I flipped us both over and he struggled as i sank my teeth into the nape of his neck, not pulling him out through and being careful  not to injure the man or pull him from the body.
