Rewrite The Stars | Final Part (Levi Ackerman FF)
EPISODE THREE - PART FOUR
Gabi
And it went boom! Explosions were everywhere!
Gabi
Reiner appeared and the wham! Whack!
Gabi sounded so excited as she walked you all through her experience during the war.
She sounded so happy, she sounded like she had fun with it.
Deep inside your heart, you feel sorry for the kid. War is all she could think of, as if it's the only thing she knew.
It's like she was programmed to think of it all the time that she sometimes forgot, she's still human.
Gabi is your husband's cousin. She's like Reiner. At a very early age, she became a warrior to inherit the powers of the titan, much like what happened to Reiner, to become an honorary citizen of Marley.
They dropped by your house today for dinner, she was accompanied by Pieck, Reiner and Falco who are busy eating the soup that you made.
Good thing that your shift ended smoothly today, the hospital is now at ease and the surviving soldiers with injuries are now tended. Some of them are even getting better.
It has only been two days since the day they arrived, good thing they passed by. You made sure to check if they are in full condition.
Lincoln
Me too, Mama! I want to fly like uncle Reiner!
Lincoln said to you, as Gabi said, Reiner flew to the sky during battle. He must've been deployed via aircraft, that's why.
You pinched his soft little cheeks.
Y/N
Alright, alright. When you're grown up, uncle Reiner will teach you how to fly.
The both of you giggled before looking at Reiner who stopped eating his food.
Y/N
Are you alright? Is something wrong?
You asked in concern, he looked like he was in pain.
Reiner
Uh, no. Something just crossed my mind.
Pieck
Don't worry, Doc. He's just like that after a mission. You know "war flashbacks".
Pieck laughed awkwardly. You didn't know how to react since you also had those episodes. You were worried for Reiner.
Gabi, Falco, and Lincoln played for a while before they left. It was also getting late, so you tucked Lincoln into bed because the kid got so tired playing with them.
Falco is one of the candidates to inherit the Titan's power, like Gabi. But, unlike her, the kid is sweet and is actually caring.
The following morning, you went early to the hospital to check on your patients.
Y/N
Amazing, he recovered faster than I expected.
You mumbled as you checked his vitals. He is indeed recovering very fast, just like your other patients.
There were instances where gravely ill patients who came to the hospital for treatment were cured because they were under your care.
Though, it seems odd for you. You'd want to think that it's maybe just because of your keen observations.
Because of that, a lot of the doctors look up to you, and the patients that you've treated were also very kind to you.
Sometimes they'd even drop by your house and give you gifts which actually warms your heart.
It made life bearable for you.
-TIME SKIP: TWO MONTHS AFTER THE BATTLE OF MARLEY AND THE MID-EAST ALLIANCE-
Eilene
Doctor Braun, have you ever thought of marrying again? A lot of the soldiers are very interested in getting to know you. Even the doctors here.
Eilene suddenly blurted out while having lunch with you in the afternoon.
You chuckled at what she said and immediately shook your head.
Y/N
No plans. I'll just take care of my son.
Out of the sudden, Mr. Kruger appeared behind Eilene's back, holding his tray of food.
Y/N
Oh, Mr. Kruger! Good afternoon, come sit with us.
Eilene moved to the side as Mr. Kruger sat down beside her and started eating in silence. She gave you a meaningful look, must be surprised because of him.
Eilene
By the way, Doc. Are you free tomorrow? I have my break tomorrow, do you want to go to the festival with me? Bring Lincoln with you.
Eilene's been so excited about the festival that'll take place here tomorrow. For the very first time, a festival that'll be held here at the internment zone.
It is a festival that'll be attended by world ambassadors. There were rumors about it being related to the operation on Paradis Island four years ago, you actually overhead Reiner, Pieck, and Porco yesterday.
Willy Tybur, the head of the Tybur family will be heading the festival tomorrow. He'll have an act later at night, one which doesn't give interest to you.
Eilene chatted with you for a bit before exiting the dining hall. You were left there with Mr. Kruger on the table.
Y/N
Do you have any plans on going tomorrow Mr. Kruger?
You asked him who hasn't even said a single word since he sat down.
Eren
I'm planning to rest here.
Y/N
It's a once in a lifetime event though, I think you don't want to miss this one out.
You meant the festival, not the act.
Eren
Then can you do me a favor Doctor Eury Braun.
He blurted out. It was actually the very first time you heard him use your full name.
Eren
C-Can you perhaps check on this house tomorrow when the event starts?
He asked which made your brows furrow.
He handed you a piece of paper with an address written on it. It's one of those houses a little far from the venue.
Y/N
Do you mind if I ask who's living here, and why should I check up on them?
You asked, trying to sound more polite.
He heaved out a very frustrated sigh.
Eren
He's a patient in this hospital that has been kicked out because he had no way of paying for the treatment.
Eren
He's a friend of mine.
Eren
H-He's seriously injured and had something going on with the military that's why he couldn't get himself treated. He is guarded too.
He then started explaining.
Y/N
So you want me to check up on him when the military has their full attention on the act tomorrow?
You asked, confirming your suspicion.
Eren
I know this is a lot to ask, and you might lose your status here if you do this, but I can't trust anyone here.
Eren
He's a very important guy to me, he was the only one who talked to me as if I am human other than you.
You thought for a while, thinking how grave the consequences are if you'll get caught.
Y/N
Mr. Kruger, as much as I wanted to help, I'll be deployed in a different area tomorrow. I don't think I'd have the means to go there.
You stated. Tomorrow, you're assigned to assist the ambassador of Hizuru.
You looked at Mr. Kruger's face, he looked like he was lost in his thoughts after what you replied to him.
Y/N
But, the hotel that she's staying in is near the location that you've pointed out. I could pass by the area before going to the hotel.
Y/N
Do you know anything about his illness so that I could prepare the things that I should bring for tomorrow night?
You felt nervous about it, but the thought of helping someone in need and helping Mr. Kruger to feel at ease overpowered your doubts.
His face lit up with your response.
Eren
He was locked up for a long time in an abandoned farm, kept away from the sunlight. He's actually gravely ill, apart from that, I don't know very much about him. Things in science are too complicated for me to understand.
You nodded and tried to analyze the situation, trying to sort out what you should do tomorrow and what things you should bring.
Y/N
Oh, is it alright if I bring my son with me? Our helper won't be around tomorrow, I decided to give her a break to enjoy the festival.
Eren
Even better, Doctor Braun.
Y/N
So what should I do when I get to the location? Should I knock first or call their name out?
He looked at you and smiled.
Eren
Just enter the house, I'll tell him to leave it unlocked. Once you're inside, you may call him by his name.
Y/N
Alright, what's his name?
