"Ava you really need to eat. You need to regain your energy." Zero said as he sat down at the table with the rest of his squad. He finally had a smirk on his face for putting that bitch where she belonged. He's worked too hard to not be in the top 10. Then to be ridiculed for it by someone who couldn't even make it in the top 50, unacceptable. But she's gone and now there's nothing to deal with. " Alright guys I'm off to go check on the mastermind who runs into trees." Zero giggled as he walked out of the mess hall. As he walked towards the barracks, he noticed Tink limping his way through the door and into the grass.

"Hey Kiryuu can you help me get to the mess? I'm starving and no one came by to give me any food when I was at the medical tent." said Tinker in a raspy voice.

"Yea sure, and there should already be food at the table everyone is at because Ava didn't eat hers, or Jonah threw it down his throat without even giving it a second thought. So who knows if it's still even there." Zero said while putting Tinks arm over his shoulders as a crutch. When they got to the table, first thing Tink said was " Are you gonna' eat that?" Jonah gave him an evil look because he was just about to take a stab at the spare food, but realized his buddy probably hadn't eaten since breakfast.

"I can't believe that actually happened." Kiryuu said as he handed over the blue rubber ball. Jonah curled his eyebrows in confusion.

"Well obviously there's Tink with his failed invention, and now apparently the injured scout that was brought in committed suicide. But on a good note, I'm through with my afflictions of missing the cutout titan." Which was said with a less than halfhearted laugh. "That man must have seen some very disturbing things beyond the walls. But in any case we all need to be ready to see things like that on a daily basis if we wanna join the 72nd Battalion. Well I'm off to go look for Ava and Alois if you want to join me Jonah."

"We should try to find Alois first, considering he's always in the mess after hard training days like today." Chimed Jonah after they started to leisurely walk out of the Barracks. When they get to the mess hall they see Ava and Alois sitting next to each other. Zero noticed that the girl that had belittled him was sobbing by herself while eating her lunch. She perked up when she noticed Zero walk through the door. She got up and ran to him as fast as she could.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to be so mean to you. I never knew how much work you put in with your squad. I could stand no chance against you or anyone in the top ten. I can't be anymore sorry!"

"No. I'm not accepting your apology. You can go sulk by yourself in that corner where you belong. I've worked my whole life to get where I am. I train day in and day out. And not what you consider training which is lollygagging and goofing around. I keep up. I work 110% everyday to follow and trying to surpass my squad while playing Catcher in the Woods, focusing on a little blue ball, while carving Titans, and maneuvering through the trees. So you can take your apologies and shove them up your ass." Kiryuu stormed away to the table where his two of his mates were sitting. Jonah stood in a moment of excitement, actually seeing Zero stand up for himself. Letting out a laugh as he walks away from the girl and sits with the rest of team.

Finally back after what seemed like one of the longest training sessions in a while, Kiryuu headed to his tent to get into his more civilian like clothes. In the midst of his changing he tried to recreate the moment of his miss to figure out where he had gone wrong.

"Maybe it's because I took my eyes off my target, or I had too much speed causing me to jerk away at the last second? Whatever...I'll get it later." He started out of his tent to clear his mind on a nice relaxing walk. After about half and hour he noticed that everyone was giving him a certain look like they wanted to ask him dozens of questions.

"Whats everybody looking at?" he said with a very puzzled look. A girl he had seen from somewhere came up to him and started to burst out questions "What happened to Tinker? Why did Alois pull his knife out on that guy?" Stunned by the girls speed of the two questions, he stammered with a response.

"We-well what I saw with Tink was he tried to use a hook to turn instantly around a tree and it did not work at all. And what did Alois do?!" The girl didnt seem too surprised about what Tink had done because he always does things with his inventions, but she did seem thrown off about him not knowing about Alois' little stunt. She told him what had happend, Kiryuu tried to rush for the mess to ask why but got bombarded with one more question. "If you're in the top 10 of the cadets, then why did I see you miss today at training? I thought you all were supposed to be perfect?"
That's when Kiryuu realized where he had seen her at, swinging past him and killing the Titan that was supposed to be killed by his blades.

"Uhh it wa-was from me going to fast a-and I took my eyes off of the target when I swung." This was the best explanation he could give at the time. She laughed at him and walked away back to whatever she was doing. As he was walking to the mess hall, he noticed a man with no arm being rushed into the medic tent. He ran into the tent to see who he was and saw the emblem of the scouts. Not wanting to interrupt he turned to walk away and saw Tinker laying there sleeping after his catastrophic incident. Zero walked out and headed back to his tent not caring about Alois' most recent misadventure anymore. Once he got back he slid into his bunk for a little shut eye.

Kiryuu woke up to the sound of a horse thundering past. He ran outside to see the commotion but he just caught the tail end of what he said to two cadets "He just killed himself!".
"How much worse can this day really get?" Kiryuu said in his groggy after nap voice.

Kiryuu caught the little ball even though it ended the game and rushed to Tink who was laying on the ground. "Another invention gone wrong huh?" he said with a little smirk. By then Jonah and Alois had arrived by his side too. "Since theres only 1 Titan left for practice today, ill go find it while you take Tink here to the medic so we can be done." Zero ran a few steps then launched is gear and let out a burst of gas to get back to cruising speed. Swinging from tree to tree it didnt take long to spot the last Titan. It looked to be about 10 meters tall. "Thats one ugly son of a bitch!"

Zero shot the right side of his gear into the throat of the Titan to use as his pivot point and used a burst of gas on the left to make the sharp turn and get behind the beast. He was ready to get his first and last kill of the day. He swung his swords with all his might as he zipped behind it. With excitement and found the nearest tree branch and stopped to look at his kill for the day. "I missed??? How in the world did i miss?" Then a different squad of students flew by and dug their blades deep into what shouldve been his kill. The squad mustve saw him miss because they all laughed as they passed him on the tree branch.

"Ill just go back to the others i guess." Zero slowly made his way back to the others where they last were. They had gotten Tink up on his feet and ready to get back to camp. "Guys i missed the last Titan." he said with total depression. "The last time I missed one was when we were learning how to use our Maneuver Gear." He started to doubt his placement in the top ten and doubting if he should even go in the 72nd Battalion.

"Finally. Time to go out and show everybody not to mess with the soon to be 72nd Survey Battalion." Zero couldn't wait to get back into the woods and play Catcher in the Trees while slaying some Titans. Even thought the Titans aren't real, it felt good for him to get his anger out on the cutouts instead of those who mock him. Zero ran and launched his Maneuver Gear to the tree closest to him and gassed full speed towards the dense forest for some Titan hunting. He watched as his teammates threw, kicked, and bounced Alois' ball throughout the forest. Next thing he knows he's in range for kick and bounce for a few points in their exhilarating made up game. Kiryuu launches his gear around a tree in mid-swing to make a tight 90 degree turn and blast the little rubber ball against a massive oak tree and straight towards Ava to see if she was still in the game. "Its coming your way Ava! Lets see you make something of it!' shouted Kiryuu in an almost maniacal laughter.

When Zero got himself back on track he saw Tink loading his weapon but doesn't see any Titans nearby. Confused, Kiryuu slowed down to watch and see what is going to play out in front of him. BOOM Zero flinched at the deafening sound of the new weapon. FInally he got a glimpse of the target. A 15 metre tall Titan with a face full of lead from TInk's gun. After the bombardment, Kiryuu caught a quick blur of Alois going in for the kill. A perfect cut by Alois like he always does in training. "That's why hes ranked higher than me. He's very quick and accurate wtih his blows." says Zero in astonishment. Everyone starts to celebrate on the cutout kill. After the celebration, the squad sped forward to continue the grind of the day.

Alois jumped at the chance to say what was on his mind and tried to rush out of the door for training, like he usually does when he wants to leave a boring situation. Kiryuu was sitting in his bunk above Tink trying to not get hit by his new invention just thinking of how he could still be the 'Zero' he was growing up. "I'm not going to be another test dummy Tink, me and you both are still trying to grow all of our hair back after the last one."

Kiryuu sighed with a sense of disappointment "I made spot six and yet the others still mock me.." That's all that was stuck in his head. All of the hard work that had been put into these last three years for the top ten and still being mocked, even by the lowest of the low. This shot anger through his slim 5'6 body. Kiryuu jumped of his bed in what seemed like a moment of inspiration, but actually a push of absolute rage. "Lets go show these wimps what hard work really is and why they didn't make the top 10 in the first place!"

Kiryuu could never wrap his head around the thought of wanting to live the rest of his life behind Wall Sina where the citizens don't care about who you are. As long as you don't have more money than them, they didn't care who you are. Kiryuu wants to be as far away from that snob infested town and go explore outside of the walls. He wants to find the reason to why these Titans walk the throughout the world. He starts walking to the door, stretching his arms getting ready for the grueling day that lays ahead.

Shingeki no Kyojin - Name Pending - Closed (4-person) RP

Name- Kiryuu Zero
Age-15
Born behind the Wall SIna, Kiryuu Zero, was born into one of the wealthiest families in Sina. Growing up Kiryuu was extremely interested in the mysteries of the outside world and all of its history. Growing up all of his friends mocked his last name "Zero" meaning that he wasn't intelligent. When Wall Maria fell to the Titans, Zero expressed his knowledge of the outside world and how there may be an answer in the old cities. While all food was being rationed behind Rose, Zero felt it unfair that the wealthy families dont have to participate. Zero ran away from home into the military to try and join the 72nd Battalion for the opportunity of finding the answer to the Titans.
