The mission
Alright everyone, I really like comments and I would rather not instill the rule I have on my other story website where I demand 1+ comments for a new chapter but I will if I have to so I can have criticism, love, and thoughts. Please don't leave me hanging....now you may enjoy.

Trost is a growing militaristic country built into a beautiful paradise. The jungles were full of wildlife and fruit, the land was fertile, and the climate was perfect. The country lies by the ruins of a long fallen civilization of Maria, the great walled world. The impressively large walls of Maria were crumbling in the sight to the northern border of Trost. The only real threat to the small country was a west winged radical group named Titan. Many of the members of this group grew up in the 'Underground' a horrible city running under most countries throughout the world, they were all cities run by criminals, gangs, assassins, and all sorts of horrible people who do what they need to do to survive. The people who joined the radical group wanted to destroy everything Trost stood for because it was one of the few countries in the world that did not have a branch of the underground. It could be understood if they had a reasonable issue with the way Trost ran it's country to have gatherings and marches or even normal activist rallies but these people plundered, raped, experimented on civilians, destroyed homes and families, kidnapped people, killed people all in the name of not having a criminal city. They preferred working with guerrilla war fare for the want to spill blood. They were a thorn in the side of the military of Trost and a danger to her generally happy population.
Captain Levi Ackerman, Humanity's Strongest Solider, leader of the most successful special forces team in the history of Trost. Titan was especially a issue for Levi himself. Levi, his cleaning issue aside, hated how dirty Titan was between just wanting to spread their genes and ideas of hate and their inability to not pillage and shed blood where ever they went. Being from the French Underground himself and being feared throughout the tunnels and cities even before becoming a solider it gave Levi a unique understanding and distaste for the group. Commander Erwin, aka eyebrows, released Levi from the darkness along with Farlan and Izzy all those years ago which in itself he was grateful for but Trost claimed him as a hero and a resident, it became his home and he would not allow her people to be terrorized by terrorists.
“Hey short stack! I know you are awake in there. You can not hide from me!” Suddenly a shrill voice cried through the thick wooden door to Levi's chambers, followed by the sound of a body trying to shoulder the door down. Looking over at the clock that sat on the edge of his desk Levi sighed at the bright red numbers, 4:00 am. It was too early for human interaction let alone Hanji interaction. Well this can not be good Levi shook his head and got off his work out mat to wipe off the disgusting sweat that had gathered on his skin doing his morning routine.
“What do you want you shitty four eyes? Unless Erwin is calling for a mission you know my alarm for dealing with you or anyone else for that matter doesn't go off until 6:30am, that is another 2 and a half hours.”
“well lucky for you then because Erwin need us both in his office.” Levi could hear the excitement in their non binary self. Erwin needing Levi's full squad and Levi was rare, needing Levi and Hanji together was a bad thing, it was going to a hard mission to deal with for everyone.
“I am guessing shooting one of the three of us is not going to get me out of whatever he has planned is it?” Levi sighed splashing water on himself, this was as clean he was going to get until the mission report was over.
“Nope now hurry up before I figure out how to get past your door and drag you out here in your current sweaty state. “ Hanji threatened. Levi got dressed as quickly as possible knowing that door couldn't hold back the brunette forever.
“Good morning you two. I am sorry for calling you out so early Levi, I know you don't like dealing with people until later.”
“It is alright Erwin you lovable giant. We should be apologizing to your little husband for having you meet with us so early.”
“Yeah the mushroom will be pouting all day if we don't hurry this up eyebrows so that you can get back to him before he wakes up.”
“Fair point.” Erwin smiled tiredly. The poor bastard's husband had been sick recently and really clingy. He had been accidentally keeping Erwin up the last few days getting sick and looking like death. Armin had always been fairly sickly but eyebrows wouldn't have him any other way. Levi would never admit he wanted something like what Erwin and Armin had. “Alright this is an important mission that may or may not involve Hanji but is definitely a Levi issue. We have gotten information from an unknown source about the location of Titain's mad scientist's lab. The letter we got is suspicious and could be a trap but it could also be the where about of Grisha Jeager. Without his ties to Titan Grisha is wanted for the murder of his wife Carla Jeager and the assumed murder of their 10 year old son Eren Jeager about 10 years ago. I want his lab secured, his experiments brought back, and if possible Grisha brought in. Hanji will deal with the experiments. Levi you have everything else. The recon team will be following hours after your squad, Hanji included. I want you all to be careful.”
“And what if that bastard has human experiments?” Hanji asked seriously. Their hatred for Grisha Jeager was immense. Grisha Jeager has been a well respected Doctor and scientist on biological developments until his wife Carla, a stay at home apothecary, was found dead after being missing for some time. When her body was found with evidence pointing to the Doctor he had magically disappeared with their 10 year old son Eren. Eren was presumed dead when Grisha showed back up years later doing horrible work for Titan and without the boy. This man was everything Hanji hated and stood against, Levi never saw his eccentric friend hate anyone until Grisha Jeager showed up.
“We will see what happens when that problem comes up. Just get everyone and everything that can be saved back here safe and sound.”
“When do we leave?” Levi asked, that was the only thing left he needed.
“2 hours.”
