[DriveEMOut]

Suddenly, the colossal titan appeared in a flash of light. It kicked open the gate, and Titans rushed in. "Hana, run!" Archer shouted. He got his gear ready, but the colossal Titan hit the area near him, and the shockwave knocked him off the wall, unconscious.

Hana shook her head and she got her gear, flying around the Titan and cutting his limbs, then getting his nape. Then she picked up Archer and got him to safety, going to kill more Titans.

Archer stood up, his head pounding. His instructor landed by him in the roof.
"Where is Cadet Hana?" He barked. "Over there, sir." Archer blurted, pointing at the moving silhouette of Hana. "Cover me while I retrieve her, and meet me at HQ." He instructed to Archer. "Yes sir." Archer zipped around, dispatching Titans at a slightly faster speed than Hana. Once he saw he was cleared to go, he zipped away from the Titans, and headed towards the stone of HQ. He landed in the courtyard and waited for Hana.

Hana frowned as the instructor told her to go back to HQ. She went back with him and she landed like a cat, having some scrapes but otherwise unhurt. She folded her arms over her chest, waiting for the instructor to berate her for going after the Titans.

The instructor gestured to Archer, who was striding purposefully through the crowd towards Hana. "You should talk to your friend." Archer grabbed Hana's wrist and dragged her into an unpopulated hallway. He hugged her. "Promise me you won't die. I'll make sure I get in your squad so I can protect you, but I need you to promise."

Hana seemed surprised at what Archer just did, but she hesitantly hugged him back. "I'm not going to die, Archer." She let go when she started to get uncomfortable and she pushed him back gently. he knew she was being ridiculously untrusting. But after someone she knew very well had sold her out, she had given up on trust. She had determination in her eyes. "I'm going to destroy the Titans, every last fucking one of them." There was such coldness in her tone as she spoke about the Titans as she remembered what they did to her parents.

Archer walked away, and got intercepted by his instructor. "Archer, you were the best candidate for a special task. You are going to take the Titans head on. You will have others from your class who we think are the most skilled, so here they are. He rattled off names, but when Archer heard Hana he sighed in relief. "I won't disappoint you sir." He stated calmly. He walked to the nearest room so he could get fresh blades and gas. "I'm ready for you, Titans."

Hana was sitting on the roof of HQ, her chin resting on her knees as she used to do when they were kids. She was staring at the sky, her eyes glazed over as she stared upwards. How had the world come to this...? It was so beautiful but so damn dangerous.

@Nikki Moonlight@Lady Athena
Archer emerged from the shadows behind Hana. "You still needed your gear, so I got it for you." He gently placed it beside her, and sat down next to her. "You know I've been constantly trying to get your attention for three years? And you ignored me." He chuckled. "They used to call you ice queen." He shook his head. "Dammit. I shouldn't be saying this, but I don't know why you do it. Why you shut me out. Even when you don't go out with anyone else from the recruits. It drives me insane, trying to figure it out." He got up, and turned, getting ready to walk away.

Hana said before he got away, "It's because I'm afraid..." She still didn't move from where she was. But her face for once was showing pain, so much pain, while awake. Her eyes were glimmering with bright tears that she hadn't shed for three years.

[DriveEMOut]

@Nikki Moonlight
"Of what? I've proved I can take care of myself. I might go as far to say that I'm better than you at fighting Titans. So why are you afraid?" His voice took on a much more determined tone, and he turned back around to look at Hana.

[Nikki Moonlight]

@DriveEMOut

She finally looked at him. "Because my own brother sold me out to those people...I've had a hard time trusting anyone since then..."

[DriveEMOut]

@Nikki Moonlight
"I can't believe you think I'd be willing to do that." He spat. "You can't trust your best friend." He walked away, trying to find the instructor. The instructor spotted him and walked over. "Yes, Cadet Archer?" He asked politely. "I would like to start my mission now." He stated. About twenty minutes later, his team's escort dropped them off. "Come at me, you Titan bastards!" He dispatched Titan after Titan at almost astonishing speed, letting out a battle cry.

@DriveEMOut

As Archer spat his response, Hana flinched, then as he walked away she whispered, "I guess I know how it is you really feel..." She cried for a little while after that, then on the mission she dispatched Titans on her own, going off on her own, knowing Archer wouldn't want to work with her. Was she suicidal? Possibly. She now had nothing else to live for. If she only dispatched a few Titans before dying...That would be enough for her. She hated to be a burden on anyone. And she had lost her best friend.

[DriveEMOut]

@Nikki Moonlight@Lady Athena
Archer screamed as he killed the Titans, tears mixing with their blood and his sweat. His best friend didn't trust him. She thought he would be willing to do something like that to her. She didn't realize that even as kids, he had been desperate to be friends, and they were. But there were also times when she shut him out. He rested on a rooftop, and looked at his comrades. His eyes settled on Hana, who was using too much gas. "At this rate she's going to run out!" He whizzed by and grabbed her before she could run out of gas, and took her to a safer rooftop, then put her down. He yelled for the only other person he remotely knew. "Enya, cover us for a minute!"

[Nikki Moonlight]

@DriveEMOut

Hana couldn't look at him, not after losing him as a friend. Upon closer inspection he would be able to see that her eyes were pink and slightly puffy despite her face being stony. She said monotonously, "Let me back out there."

[DriveEMOut]

@Nikki Moonlight
"Hana, I can't allow you to endanger your life more than needed. If you cannot learn to stay safer, than I cannot let you back out there. And that's an order from your squad captain." Her lips looked soft. Focus! Besides you had your chance. You abandoned her. Archer leaned in, and brushed his lips against hers. "Now come on." He gave her some of his gas. "Now be careful out there." He spotted a Titan and went after it.

[Nikki Moonlight]

@DriveEMOut

She was surprised to say the least, but she went back out there, slaughtering more Titans. She was confused. Didn't Archer hate her for not trusting him? If he didn't, why not?

[DriveEMOut]

@Nikki Moonlight
Archer killed Titans for what seemed to be forever. Eventually they were called to retreat to wall Sina. Archer used his remaining gas to scale the wall, and was taken in by the Military Police, who provided a blanket, some food, and water. Archer sat eating, watching the various injured soldiers. The Titans took more land. We can't all be contained in just wall Sina. We have to keep Wall Rose, or we have no hope.

Hana had gotten injured by a Titan trying to take a bite out of her but she had escaped with a large gash rather than having had her entire body cut in half. She tried to hide it using her cloak but someone saw the blood coming from her and they called medics, who looked at Hana's back where the injury was. She squirmed, not liking so much attention on her, especially when she only had a bra on in the infirmary aside from her pants.
