Whore

Third Person POV:

It has been four days since the Trost recovery plan had been a success and for those four days Kaminari had been kept locked away in the court house to await the trial of Eren Jaeger. Like always, she was under the supervision of Captain Levi or the guard of the Military Police when he's out.

The tiny blonde sits comfortably on the couch with a book in hand, her feet resting next to a pile of broken hand cuffs on the coffee table. Every time a member of the military police guards her or enters the room they restrain the girl with another pair of cuffs, despite the lack of success they've had in the task so far.

The MP's didn't trust the girl to say the least, some even say they loathed her. But Kaminari wasn't fussed, after all they'd tried to kill her on many occasions since she'd been here many times after her initial incarceration and they hadn't succeeded in the slightest.

This time though, four members of the Military Police circle around the couch pointing their blades in the girl's direction. "Put the damn cuffs on monster before we run you through!" Kaminari merely turns to the next page, flicking a feathery angelic wing out and shoving them away from her in one fell swoop. "Go away, can't you see I'm reading here?" She asks boredly, glancing at the men with an unamused expression.

One man staggers to his feet with a growl, "I've had enough of you monster!" He leaps towards the lazy girl who doesn't move in the slightest until the blades a few inches from her. Kaminari reappears behind the man, not even looking at him as she continues reading her book, kicking him to the couch and then wordlessly sits in his back, her wings replacing themselves under her skin once again.

He flails and screams in protest along with the other men who yell profanities at the small blonde for "taking the soldier hostage" when Levi and Erwin enter the room. Levi just sighs, massaging his temples. "Everyone shut up." The room subsequently falls silent as per the small man's request. "Good. Now Kaminari please get off the foolish man, he's not a seat and you-"

He turns glaring at the three soldiers who pull their comrade to "safety," "Kaminari didn't hold your man hostage so get over yourselves. And get out of the room before I allow her to rip you to shreds for even entering this room." The men rush out of the room in a hurry, not once looking back at the smirking girl, the Commander and Captain Levi.

Levi falls into the seat beside Kaminari, throwing an arm over the back of the seat as he turns the book to see the title. "The Sacred lies of Minnow Bly? You finished this one last time we were here." For the first time since he'd entered the room she lifts her green eyes to meet his onyx ones, "it's a good book. It's a bit of horror, crime, mystery...... It's cruel and amazing in its own twisted way."

"Read me the blurb," Levi requests, much like every time she has a book in hand. "The Kevinian cult has taken everything from seventeen-year-old Minnow: twelve years of her life, her family, her ability to trust. And when she rebelled, they took away her hands, too.

Now their Prophet has been murdered and their camp set aflame, and it's clear that Minnow knows something—but she's not talking. As she languishes in juvenile detention, she struggles to un-learn everything she has been taught to believe, adjusting to a life behind bars and recounting the events that led up to her incarceration. But when an FBI detective approaches her about making a deal, Minnow sees she can have the freedom she always dreamed of—if she's willing to part with the terrible secrets of her past." Levi once again finds himself in a trance as he listens to Kaminari speak, her voice had always had this affect on him. Even when they first met in the underground and again when she was incarcerated at the age of seven.

If he ever had a sister, he'd want them to be just like Kaminari- strong, determined, unrelenting but still kind, loving and hopeful. It honestly broke his already fractured heart when he sent her away to socialise and make friends with the cadets. He secretly knew it was for the best, but he just didn't want to admit that, sending his self proclaimed sister away was the best thing for her at the time.

"Sounds tragic." Erwin injects, Kaminari smiles up at the closest thing she's every had to a father figure. "The main character of a story will always have a tragic backstory, it's the essence of novel writing. The thing that draws a reader to try understand the life of someone whose had it worse than themselves."

She places a marker in her book before snapping it closed and placing it on the table, turning to the ravenette questionably. "Did you see Eren?" The older man nods stiffly, uncrossing and crossing his legs. "He's certainly an....interesting one. Very driven and bloodthirsty." He takes a sip of Kaminari's tea, holding it by the rim and not the handle as usual.

Erwin refrains from smiling when he notices the mischievous glint in Kaminari's vibrant green orbs, "so you admit he's kind of cute then?" Levi chokes on the tea, almost dropping it before sending the girl a glare. "I never said that and don't even think or talk about boys until you're 30, okay?" She throws her head back with a groan, "yes dad." She replies sarcastically.

Erwin draws the duo's attention by clearing his throat, "the tribunal will be starting soon, make sure you're ready Kaminari." She gives him a mock salute as she throws on her survey corps cloak, flicking up the hood as the three of them make their way to the upper part of the court house.

The trio make their way through the crowd of people residing on the lower part of the court house until they are in position. Suddenly Eren is pushed through the doors adjacent the Premier's seat. His eyes widened in shock, obviously having no idea where he is or that he was under a court house the entire time.

The MP's push Eren to his knees, attaching his handcuffs to a metal pole which they push into position in the centre of the room. Eren's eyes roam the room for any familiar faces, spotting Levi and Erwin before seeing Armin and Mikasa there also. His attention is drawn to the Premier entering, he removes his coat and rolling up his sleeves as if to prepare himself for the upcoming debate. "Alright, shall we begin?"

Kaminari's eyes widen slightly at the realisation of who the man is- Darius Zackly. A man with sunken and tired-looking eyes hidden behind glasses, he has noticeable wrinkles on his face, and his hair is receded and grey. Notably, he also has a grey scruffy looking full beard and moustache.

He was the one who decided her own fate eight years prior, only being swayed because her mere existence could be a benefit to the survival of the human race. And so far he has been pleased with her efforts.

He adjusts his glasses as he scans a piece of paper, "your name is Eren Jaeger and as a soldier you have sworn to give up your life when called to, for the good of the people. Is that correct?" He asks eyeing the young brunette in front of him. A sense of nostalgia washes over him at the last time he hand to rule on behalf of a young girls life, to this day he's proud of her achievements but knows that this case will be a little harder to navigate.

"Yes," Eren meekly replies, Zackly nods keeping his stare even on the young boy. "And as a soldier during a time of war or military doctorate requires this be held as a court marshal. As a member of this it's left to my digression. Thus I will decide if you live or die. Any objections?" He queries, knowing full well that it's easier for him just to follow along.

Eren's head drops as the gravity of the situation weighs down in him. "No, Sir." "Your cooperation is appreciated, let us proceed. As expected to bring up your existance is fruitless and unless we publically disclose your existence, one way or another we risk wide spread civil unrest. A choice must be made and the regiment that takes custod of you will determine your fate. The Military Police or the Scout Regiment." He pauses for effect, "to begin, the Military Police will now present their case."

"Thank you, my name is Nile Dok and I am Commander of the Military Police. Our recomendation following a thorough examination of his physiology that subject Eren Jaeger be disposed of immediately. We acknowledge that Jaeger's ability assisted in holding back the titans in the recentbreach, however as has been stated his existance has created a swell of rebellious actions. For the greater good, after we have gathered all the information we can from him, we would see him made a fallen soldier of humanity."

"UNACCEPTABLE! This ravenous fiend has defiled the walls-" Kaminari scowls annoyed as she blocks out the crazy wall man's ramblings and instead eyes Eren in the middle of the room. It's obvious that he's trying to be positive but is feeling a little helpless, Kaminari knows that feeling all too well. "-And now I'd like to hear the Scout Regiment's proposed plan."

Commander Erwin stands,"yes Sir. As Commander of the Survey Corp, I Erwin Smith proposethe following- let Eren join our ranks, reinstate him as a full member of the scouts and we will utilise his titan abilities to retake Wall Maria that is all."

Whispers of uncertainty and disbelief echo throughout the court house. "Hm, is that it?" the premier asks unsurely but Erwin nods in confirmation. "Yes. With his assistance I'm certain we can reclaim Wall Maria, ergo I belive our top priority is perfectly clear."

Zachly studied the blonde carefully, "quiet bold." He remarks, "assuming you were given custody, where do you plan to launch this operation from?Commander Pixas, the wall in Trost district has been completely sealed. Is that correct?" He asks Dot Pixas knowingly.

"Yes, I doubt it will ever open again." Pixas replies honestly as Commander Erwin picks up where he left off. "We will depart from the Calaneth district from the east and from there we shall make way to Shinganshina, a new route can be established as we proceed-"

"-but that's ridiculous! Our time and money would be better spent sealing up all of the gates. They're the only parts of the wall the Colossal titan can break right? Let's reinforce the blasted things and wash ourhands at the entire affair." The merchant blurts out in a hurry, desperately wanting to be heard to save his own ass. "Shut up you spineless merchant dog! With a titan on our side we can reclaim Wall Maria-"

"Squealing louder won't help your case pig." Levi says calmly, everyone gasps turning to him while Kaminari chuckles. "While we're bolstering our defences, don't you think the titans will just stand idly by. And when you say "we can't afford," you speak for anyone other than your fat merchant friends. Do you pigs even realise that most of our people are struggling to survive on what little land we have left."

"I'm simply saying that sealing the gates is the only guarenteed plan to keeping the titans out." Wall cult member starts rambling and yelling profanities at the man at the idea of meddling with the walls or gates.

Premier Zackly sighs in annoyance, tapping the table several times saying, "order. You save your personal sentiments for a more appropriate venue. Now then Mr Jaeger I have a question for you, as a soldier you have made a solomn pledge to answer humanity's call. Can you still serve in controlling your abilities?"

"Yes I will Sir." He promises wholeheartedly but the Premier's unwavering stare makes him nervous as Zackly shakes his head. "This statement from the battle of Trost contradicts that statement. After you transformed it seems you made an attempt to crush Mikasa Ackerman." Eren snaps his head towards Mikasa and Armin in shock and disbelief.

Whispers and retorts fill the room about maybe Mikasa being another monster like Eren, whom growls at the merchant "maybe I'm a monster but you leave her out of this! She's not a monster, it's the truth! STOP IT!" Eren pulls harshly against the chain making a loud clanking noise that makes everyone shut their damn mouths in fear and anticipation.

Eren on his knees slumped with his head down, "you're wrong....about it all. But you're all so intent on pushing selfish agendas, you're blind to what's in front of you." Nile's face twists in shock, "wait, what do you mean?"

"What does it even matter? None of you have ever seen a titan, so why are you so afraid huh?" Eren's demeanour completely changes from unsure to fierce, "There's no sense in having power if you're not going to fight. If you're too scared to fight for your lives fine, let me do it! You.. You're all cowards! Just shut up and put all your faith in me!" A moment of silence passes after his declaration.

Dok nudges the man next to him "take aim dammit!" The man unsurely nods, "uh yes Sir." Eren's eyes widen in fright at the gun cocked in his direction but loses sight of the gun when a pair of white wings block his vision and a loud bang goes off and at the same time he's suddenly kicked in the face. A tooth flies from his mouth as his head reels back from the force of the blow.

But Eren's head snaps towards the gunman, seeing the end of the gun being bent upwards and the hood falling off the person's head revealing his comrade whom he thought died, Kaminari. Armin and Mikasa gasp seeing the girl alive and even more shockingly, she's the Kaminari Moriko.

But Eren doesn't have time to be relieved of his friend still being alive as Levi kicks Eren repeatedly. "You know personally, I believe nothing teaches discipline like pain. You don't need a good talking to, what you need boy is to be taught a lesson and you happen to be in perfect kicking position."

Military Police watch in horror, trying to block out Kaminari's dark chuckle as Levi kicks the crap out of the boy. "N-Now hold on Levi." Bile Dok stutters out, terrified of the small man and the blonde Captain.

"What is it?" Levi asks, his foot resting casually on Eren's face. "It's dangerous. What if he gets angry and turns into a titan? You already have one monster under your control-" "-watch your tongue whore or I'll cut it out." Kaminari hisses, flicking her inhuman like claws out dangerously before retracting them.

Levi kicks Eren once again for good measure, "-don't be silly. After all, you guys just want to dissect him don't you and I highly suggest you don't talk about Captain Moriko like that or you'll regret it." He lifts up Eren's bloody face to the military police before dropping it as he fully faces them.

"During the time he was transformed they say Jaeger was able to kill 20 titans before he ran out of strength, as an enemy his intelligence makes him all the more dangerous. But I and Captain Moriko can still take him down without a problem, how many of you can say the same? Before you torment the beast you better think, can you actually kill him?"

Erwin raises his hand,"Sir I have a proposition." "Proceed." Premier Zackly grants immediately. "There's still too much we don't know and no doubt his danger will be ever present. As such I suggest this, Eren Jaeger be placed under Captain Levi'ssupervision and we will conduct a recon mission outside of the walls." Erwin offers.

"And Jaeger will join you in this excursion?" Zackly questions, although he already knows the answer. "Yes Sir. And you can look upon the mission results yourself and if he successfully uses his abilities, he has proven his worth to man kind. Much like you did with Kaminari eight years ago."

Armin's eyes widen as he whispers to Mikasa, "if my calculations are correct, she would've been seven years old when she went through the trial like this that determined her fate. I can't believe she was our age when she first saved me and my grandad..."

Mikasa places a hand on the blonde's shoulder, "I can't believe this is the same girl we've spent years training with. The Kaminari I know surely couldn't keep a secret this big." But either way the two looked at it, she had kept it from all of them.

"Eren Jaeger will be closely supervised? And if he should lose control?" Levi steps towards Eren dangerously, "I can definitely kill him if it comes to that. The only down side is that there is no middle ground and I'm sure Kaminari would agree with me." He eyes Mikasa and Armin out the corner of his eyes as the said blond retracts her wings stepping forwards.

"I'd do it in a heartbeat if it's for the good of humanity. Sir, have I even let you down?" She asks rhetorically making the Premier nod thoughtfully. "Hm. I have made my choice."

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_TIME SKIP_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Hanji cleans Eren's wounds, "well that went better than expected. Does it hurt?" "Yeah," he mutters placing a damp cloth to his face as Hanji's face lights up, "yeah? Describe it to me." Kaminari shudders lightly, sending Jaeger a sad look. "You'll get use to her eventually."

Eren gapes from the blonde to the brunette in front of him as Erwin approaches. "Sorry for the theatrics but it did get you placed in our custody." "No, I understand." Eren reasurres him but eyes Kaminari cautiously, the girl herself picking up on it immediately.

"I can assure you that the pain was worth it. We played our trump card at the perfect time, you have our upmost respect." Eren shakes Erwin's hand immediately, "me too, thanks Sir." Levi sits next to Eren, right arm resting on the back of the chair and his right leg crossed over his left. "So, Eren." "Sir?" Eren asks meekly. "You don't resent me, now do you?"

Eren's slightly terrified face fades as he crosses his arms, "no Sir. I can see what you did was necessary." "Good, then you understand." Hanji jumps forward with a cloth in hand. "But still, don't you think you went too far? I mean you knocked his tooth out." She opens the cloth revealing the tooth, "neat, huh?" Levi frowns in disgust, "you picked it up? Disgusting."

"This is a precious sample I'll have you know." She retorts boredly as Levi just spares her a dry look. "Hey, just be glad people like that aren't dissecting you." Hanji scoffs dramatically, "don't you dare compare me with them. I'd never even dream of killing him. Hey Eren, let me take a look inside of that mouth of yours."

Eren nods opening his mouth, Hanji looks inside with a slight gasp. "Your tooth....it grew back. It seems you're regenerative abilities are like that of Kaminari's." Eren's eyes refocus in the blonde opposite him and beckons her forward. "What the hell are you and how did you get involved with these guys?" He asks, still not believing that his friend is the Kamimari Moriko.

She walks over sitting on the floor opposite him, "it's a long story."
