It was very bright that morning. The sun shines brightly , no clouds spotted on the sky and the weather was quite hot. And the whole Special Ops Squad including Eren were instructed by their captain , Humanity's strongest and the freakiest clean freak to clean up the abandoned castle they used awhile to protect Eren until the next expedition.

A day before, the whole squad just had their brutal training whole day that made their whole body sore today. Being a soldier comes with great price including some muscle train and pain everyday. But somehow they couldn't bear to do clean ups like some mere janitors in the scouts with Levi as their captain. They boys hated it but they had no choice. Eren felt the pressure too soon.

But petra was different, she suprisingly enjoyed cleaning as much as her captain. Being the only female in the squad probably affects her mindset to be the mother of the group and found that cleaning and cooking is a great way to relieve some stress in the middle of military activities. Thats why Levi chose her as a bonus aspects. He need someone like her to acompany him.

"Oi Jeager, its no good. Redo everything!" He scowled

Petra was surprised on the sudden appearance from her captain, because she had just talk freely about him. About the rumors of his background before joining the corps to Eren. Eren quickly dashed outside the room to redo what he had done earlier. Petra kept sweeping the floor , eyes focused bellow and her heart beat faster while avoiding her captain gaze. "Did he hear what i said earlier...? oh no he's gonna punish me somehow" she gritted her teeth, Still not looking at him.

"Oi petra, where did you hear those stories from" His hand was on her shoulder left her had goosebumps. She didn't realize that the captain approached her

"Um...just rumors here and there sir..I'm Sor..ry.." Still not looking at him

"Look at your superior when they talk to you , Ral" She finally straighten up, turn around and look at his direction immidiately , face flushed. "Yes, Sir!" He was quite close , She found her superior cute with those kind of napkin on his head. He pushed her to the wall and stretched an arm beside her neck leaving the flushed girl dumbfounded. Her heats skips a beat at his sudden action. The broom fell off her hand.

"Tch..your face is red now, are you still a teenage brat ? It troubles me to see you like this. Grow up, Ral" He squinted his eyes closer to examine her face.Only replied by a nerveous voice

"I..I...I'm not sir,, please step back" Then he stepped back and released his arm

"Tch...Go Clean the storage room next, Ral I'll finish this room" From there she dashed out the room with her broom. Her heart beated loudly on her ears. She took a momment to catch her breath on stairs to maintain her heart beat again. She put her hand on her chest to make that she was okay before heading to the storage room. "Silly me..."

The storage room located on groun floor, It was quite a big room, not to mention all the dusts, spider webs, Cockroaches, and perhaps Rats. She found it ridiculous having her own self to clean up this room alone. "Is this some kind of punishment..." she thought. She swore that she wants to snap at any time by now and she just wanted it to be over quickly. Petra actually not that kind of 100% nice innocent girl as the rest know, She cursed a lot when she was alone basicly. She found some Cockroaches and Spiders around. Slammed on it while screaming "Shit..Fuckkkk Die you rotten insects..!!!!"

The cockroaches ran through her boots.

"AHHHHH DIE DIE DIE JUST DIE PLEASE !!!" . Unfortunately with the storage room being quite far from the other room , the rest of the squad wouldn't hear her shoutings. She was too focused on catching up the cockroaches running around the room madly up until she didn't realize that she hit an old rusty tall shelf way too hard that it felt right above her body. *Bump*

It hurts so bad it didn't cause any injury she thought. But of course it was horrible. There she lied on the floor with her face facing the dirty floor. Her hand and face already went dark with all the dust, she felt some spiderwebs above her hair, what a dirty situation she was and she cursed a lot then almost cried in agony. She didn't intend to breath through her mouth but she did on relfex , which cause the heavy dust around her entered her throat.

*Cough* *Cough* *Cough* "What..the...UGH" *Cough* Coughing spree attacked her harsly She couldn't stop the cough at all. Petra found it hard to even breath through her nose because all of those dust materials and felt out of breath. Realizing that she couldn't stay there any longer so she began to crawl out from shelf above her body.

In the middle of what she was doing. A jolt of pain hit her chest suddenly. Her eyes shooked open realizing the pain. Still crawling out while keep trying to get some air inside her lungs. Still coughing heavyly every seconds hurts her even more to breath. "What is this pain?" . She finally freed herself from the shelf, she realized that her shoulder hurts a lot from the impact earlier. She ried to stand but the attempts failed her when the Pain hit her again as if her chest was stabbed by contless needles. She fell to her knees , tried to hold her chest and tried to find some moment between her cough to scream for help. "H...heelp...He...lp..HeeLpp...HEELLP-!...*cough* *pant*...HELLLP...!" The shouts only made her situation much worse. She pant tried to keep her breathing but the pain keeps striking, She found it even harder to breath and started making a shriek sound gasping for air. Chest tightens, She fell on the ground once more holding her throat and chest. "Helll...ppppp..Help.." Every seconds felts like eternity to her. The Stings inside her chest get worse. Her body now just focused on getting some air. "He..lp.."

______________________________________________________________

Its been hour since he told her to clean the storage, and he wonder if she had finished or not. He was 5m away from the storage room when he heard a shierking voice. "The hell?" He hurriedly open the door and there he found out all the mess and dust around the room that he hate most. He cursed on everything he saw there including the strawberry blonde hair girl who was lying in pain across the room. As much as he wants to immidiately clean the whole room , he knew he must come to her side first.

"Petra? You alright? What happened to you?" His face looked concerned. Petra grab on his jacket strongly while the other hand keep covering her mouth. Her body terribly trembled.

"He..ichou.."*Cough* *Shiek* "I..can't..." *shriek* "Breath...!" *SHRIEK* her body jolted up violently in despair on getting some air. Her breathing keep getting more ragged and she shrieked more frequenty. She squinted her eyes and hold her captain strongly. He lifted her body outside the room in panic and brought her to her bedroom.

"Heichou? What happened to Petra ?!" Gunther who saw the captain asked and followed him

"How the hell I know!!, just follow me !" He shouted.

Petra was put on her bed. She kept shrieking in despair and started to hyperventilating. Her hair was a mess , She looked like a mess. She managed to open her eyes a bit looking at the both dark haired men. Both of them showed their concerned face. It was her captain's concerned face that surprised her. She was able to see up close to that expression of him.

"Heichou...I think she got an asthma, I heard she never had it again since 5 years old but once it happen again....then..., this is bad!" Gunther shouted

"How bad could it be ?"

"If this keeps going on, it only a matter of minutes till her throat muscles closed up and she couldn't breath after that, which means..death..." Gunter carefully chose his words. Petra who listened on his comrade's statemnts started to wail louder in horror of what could happened next

"The fuck did you say..? should we get her to the HQ far near the city ?" The captain asked

"It would be too late sir...ugh.."., Another shrieks and scream came and her body jolted violently, Levi hold her arms

"FOR CHRIST SAKE, DO SOMETHING!!!" Levi snapped. Leving Gunther in panic.

"Oh! She should be on sitting position ! her breathing will be as unobstructed as possible. I'll look for some oxygen in medical kit!" He dashed out the room. "JUST HURRY!" Levi snapped.

He repositioned her in sitting position while holding her close. He shoulder shaking badly. Many thoughts flew inside his head, "Should I gave her some drink? Should he patted her back , no she isn't choking" all those possibility filled his head. Petra leaned her head on his shoulder while panting still not getting any better. He tried to be calmer and hoped Petra too.

"Breathe...Take a deep breath.." He tried to calm her down

"I...ca...can't...." *shrieks* "It...hur..hurts.. so mu..ch" She started to cry between her wails

"Take it slow..I'm Here..it's alright..Breathe.." He reassured her, she tried her best to follow , not much help but she got bit calmer this time, her shoulder stoped shaking but the tremendous pain in her chest still there.

"I'll get you some water..wait here-" He released his armed only met by a gripping hand that prevented him to go.

"Plea...se..stay..." *Shriek* He never saw her like this before. She was such a strong independent woman he ever know. And right now, she cries between her wails and shrieks with dirty clothes and face, also messy hair. Yet she is still the beautiful woman he adore he thought. He kept her company then just repeat the same thing to make her breath despite the pain while waiting for Gunter.

"HEICHOU, HERE IS THE OXYGEN TANK" Gunter dashed inside the room followed by the rest of the squad now. The room now packed with them. He put on the oxygen mask on petra's mouth and nose. "Petra??! What happened ??!" "Are you alright ??!" the whole squad were in panic.

"SHUT UP BRATS, GIVE HER SOME SPACE!!, she had asthma attack!" Levi snapped at them. All of them went silence while keeping on concerned face on the petite woman.

Petra did her best to breathe through the mask still holding on her captain's jacket, It was refreshing indeed. Then pain slowly began to fade away leaving her to breathe slowly again.

"Take a deep breath...it's ok...the pain will goes"

She finally opened her eyes, revealing her honey colored eyes with hint of tears somehow. She was so close with her captain, She could see the expression she probably won't ever see again . She could have really died.. She was very releaved. She couldn't say a word and only managed to give a weak smile at him

Everything turned black suddenly. All she felt was a warm arm embraced her tightly.
