Capítulo 3: Trouble

<p>Ghost's POV<br/>"We never ordered such a thing!" yelled the Chinese representative<br/>I sighed as word spread that there were Chinese military in the last Scout raid. <br/>"You invaded our home land!" yelled the Chinese representative<br/>"There was no invasion, you knew that the IMT was there yet you did nothing leaving us no choice but to go on your land to take them down." said Historia<br/>I heard people talking behind me about being more careful while making deals with the IMT in Japanese. <br/>'Japan too?'<br/>"If it's true that the IMT is making deals with China then that makes you an enemy." said Malvik<br/>"We did not make such deals." replied the Chinese representative<br/>"Yes either you may not have or you don't know about it." said Malvik<br/>My phone vibrated on the table so I quickly checked it and it was from Marksman.<br/>"In China, something going on."<br/>I sighed and waited for this damn meeting to end.<br/>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/>4 hours later<br/>Kit's POV<br/>"Something's definitely up." whispered Hacker<br/>I aimed my gun up and looked into the scope looking at a bunch of military activity in civilian attire.<br/>"It's like they're pretending to act like the last Scout raid's intel was wrong." I said<br/>I looked down at the streets from the roof. <br/>"Wait wait wait I'm getting something." whispered Juggernaut, "White van, I see middle aged men with weapons in sight."<br/>"IMT?" asked Exploder<br/>"IMT for sure." replied Juggernaut<br/>I looked over the edge of the roof and saw the white van and through the window I saw about 4 men with weapons.<br/>"Rules of engagement, do not engage at all." said Marksman<br/>I watched as Chinese military personnel in civilian attire approach the van with weapons drawn. The men in the van got off and there was shouting and civilians around looked confused and worried. But then suddenly the van took off crashing into a bunch of cars then it exploded, killing innocent civilians around it. <br/>"Fucking pricks, the Chinese government wants to fucking hide it by planning a terrorist attack on their own people?" asked Hacker<br/>I looked down as a whole war started in the streets.<br/>"Doesn't matter, we're leaving." said Marksman<br/>We got up as we put our invisible cloaks on and left the roof. <br/>Annie's POV<br/>"My god..." I whispered<br/>I was watching the news, a live report of the terrorist attack in Beijing, China. Their attacks are getting worse and it feels like they're everywhere, I really don't feel safe at all especially for my kids.<br/>"Mom?"<br/>I turned and saw Ashley looking at the TV in a bit of fear.<br/>"It's okay don't worry about it." I comforted her<br/>She nodded and hugged me. <br/>"Dad's going to protect us right?" asked Ashley<br/>"He will, don't worry." I said<br/>But then the news changed the topic to Bolivia, a country in South America. Next to the news reporter was a picture of a dead body which was apparently a cartel leader, the one who literally ruled over Bolivia dead. <br/>That's when Brooks came into the house looking tired from school. He looked at the TV and his eyes widened. <br/>"We do not know who could have possibly done this, but we are suspecting that the UNIDAD has broke ties with them in order to finally gain freedom from a dictator." said the news reporter<br/>I knew that it was Sentinel who did it but I stayed quiet. <br/>"Ashley guess who I saw mom was with." said Brooks suddenly all excited<br/>"Who?" she asked<br/>"Uncle Ajax! He's here in Eldia!" he excitedly shouted<br/>"Is he your favorite uncle?" I asked<br/>"He hasn't been here in 2 years even though he stays in touch with you and dad but like he's the best!" shouted Brooks<br/>Ashley looked surprised. <br/>"Was aunt Emily there?" she asked<br/>"No which was kind of weird of mom." said Brooks<br/>Both of them looked at me with an eyebrow raised. <br/>"Don't you two dare think like that." I growled<br/>They looked away and nodded in fear.<br/>"I only met with him because of your father, I wanted to know if he could help me." I snapped<br/>"Okay okay understood." said Ashley and Brooks<br/>They both went into their room but then Brooks stopped midway causing Ashley to get irritated. <br/>"Keep walking before I force you to." she growled<br/>But then Brooks came rushing down the stairs pushing Ashley to the side annoying her even more. <br/>"Mom mom can I go to the movies tomorrow?" he asked, "They made a movie about the hero a Sentinel codenamed Ghost."<br/>I thought about it so I pulled out my phone and scrolled through the internet until I found it. <br/>"Price is high, rated R, 3 hours long." I sighed, "It's rated R so no."<br/>Brooks looked defeated but nodded and slowly walked up the stairs but then someone knocked on my door and when I opened it, Mikasa was standing there smiling.<br/>"What brings you here?" I asked surprised<br/>"Nothing much just finished work." she said<br/>I let her in and made some coffee.<br/>"You know that Ajax and Malvik are in town right?" asked Mikasa<br/>"I met with him yesterday." I said<br/>She looked at me surprised. <br/>"Really? Was it because of Eren?" she asked<br/>I nodded and she sighed.<br/>"Jean's been telling me how he's even disobeyed Levi's orders to do things that aren't like him." she said<br/>I knew that already but I just took it in.<br/>"Mikasa about his dad, by any chance do you have the books you found in his father's basement?" I asked<br/>"Yea but it's really nothing much, it's just about Marley." said Mikasa<br/>"Nothing about his life?" I asked<br/>"They did have his life but we all already know about it." replied Mikasa<br/>Before I could respond someone knocked on the door. I approached the door and Malvik was standing there with Ajax.<br/>"What are you two doing here?" I asked<br/>"We got something, talking through any device could be dangerous." said Malvik<br/>I quickly let them in and Mikasa gasped. <br/>"Sir-I mean Ajax and Malvik what brings you here?" asked Mikasa<br/>Ajax looked frustrated so I went to quickly make more coffee.<br/>"Annie I've looked over every file we can find in anything, NHEO, TMO and we did find something in the NHEO that we completely forgot about." said Ajax<br/>"Take a seat first." said Annie as I brought the coffee and handed it to the three of them.<br/>They took a seat on a chair and drank the coffee. <br/>"Annie we forgot about your mission." continued Ajax<br/>"What mission?" I asked<br/>I was thinking hard but then it suddenly hit me as if someone slapped memories into my head.<br/>"To find the founding titan." said Annie<br/>"Founding titan?" questioned Mikasa<br/>"It's one of the nine titan powers, armored, colossal, attack, female, cart, beast, jaw, warhammer and the founding titan." I said, "The whole reason I was sent here to Eldia before all this happened was because I needed to find the founding titan."<br/>"Have you found out who the founding titan is?" asked Ajax<br/>"No not even close." I replied<br/>I heard footsteps from upstairs and Ashley came down from upstairs and she gasped when she saw Ajax. <br/>"You didn't tell me your kids were here." sighed Ajax<br/>"Uncle Ajax!" excitedly yelled Ashely<br/>Then I heard thumping from upstairs and Brooks came down and both were smiling overwhelming him. <br/>"I'll talk to you two later, we're going to have some adult talk." said Ajax<br/>They both nodded and ran back to their rooms. <br/>"Your kids love me more than my kid loves me." sighed Ajax<br/>Malvik smiled a bit. <br/>"Anyways we found out in the NHEO that the founding titan belonged to a royal family." said Ajax, "But we figured out that it had to be the Reiss family since the only known existing Fritz member is Zeke."<br/>"But if it is part of the Reiss family, then why haven't they shown up during the apocalypse?" asked Mikasa, "They could have controlled the titans."<br/>We sat there thinking until Malvik put down his cup. <br/>"Unless they lost the titan power." said Malvik, "What if someone stole it?"<br/>"Shouldn't we ask Historia?" asked Mikasa<br/>"We already have information on her father, he was one of the survivors as well." said Ajax, "Rod Reiss. He's in hiding for some reason but the fact that he's hiding probably means he did something."<br/>"We should ask Historia." said Mikasa<br/>"Maybe, maybe not." said Ajax, "I think he also has some private military shit."<br/>"I see." said Mikasa<br/>"One of his guards is a man name Kenny, Kenny Ackerman." said Ajax<br/>Mikasa gasped, surprised once he said that name. <br/>"Wondered if you know him." said Ajax<br/>"I thought Levi and I were the last Ackermans." said Mikasa<br/>"Then maybe Levi should know." said Ajax<br/>"But aside from that, about Eren has he-"<br/>Ajax's phone buzzed so he excused himself and quickly checked it and his eyes slightly widened.<br/>"Eren's back home." said Ajax, "Just landed on camp."<br/>"We should leave then." said Malvik<br/>"Oh I see." I replied<br/>"Wait Uncle Ajax!" yelled Brooks<br/>He came running down the stairs with Ashley.<br/>"Can you please convince my mom to allow me to watch this movie?" asked Brooks<br/>"Brooks I told you-"<br/>"Look it's about the hero who was part of the secret special force Sentinel." said Brooks as he showed him his phone<br/>I watched as Ajax looked at his phone but he frowned and he accidentally broke his phone.<br/>"My phone!" screamed Brooks<br/>Ajax groaned and sighed.<br/>"Sorry about that but, stay away from this movie." said Ajax, "It'll haunt you for the rest of your life."<br/>Ajax takes out a new phone from his pocket, takes the sim card out of Brook's old phone, puts it into the new one and hands it to Brooks.<br/>"Here it's new, I got it for free for some reason but you can have it." said Ajax<br/>"An iPhone 15! This is better than the movie." exclaimed Brooks<br/>Ashley looked jealous but Ajax handed her another iPhone 15.<br/>"Don't think I forgot about you." said Ajax<br/>"You're the best!" exclaimed Ashley<br/>"That wasn't necessary." I said<br/>"Well I did break his phone." sighed Ajax<br/>Malvik chuckled and Mikasa just smiled. <br/>"The next few days will be packed." said Malvik, "Make sure you guys stay home as much as possible, the world is a dangerous place."<br/>Ajax patted my kids' head and left the house.<br/>Ghost's POV<br/>"Goddammit." I groaned as I threw Brook's phone away after deleting some extra information on his phone<br/>"The phones were supposed to be for your kids." said Malvik<br/>"Well I had a change of thought because apparently Keegan's causing a lot of trouble." I said<br/>"Is Emily not doing anything?" asked Malvik<br/>"Let's just say that her punishment isn't fun, he's probably doing wall sits or holding a heavy piece of log while Emma is watching him holding a paintball gun." I said<br/>"Oh that's worse than what she does to Conner." said Malvik<br/>"Isn't Conner going to be staying at my place for a while?" I asked<br/>"Yea he should have." said Malvik<br/>Annie's POV<br/>After Mikasa left I was getting ready to go to work when Eren came into the house.<br/>"Eren you're home." I gasped acting surprised<br/>"Yea I am." he replied<br/>"The kids probably want to speak to you." I said, "Get some rest, you look tired."<br/>"I'm not, I need to go to Zeke's to discuss something." he replied<br/>"When are you going to pay attention to your kids?" I asked<br/>"I will don't worry." he replied<br/>He went upstairs and I followed.<br/>"You hardly talk to Brooks and Ashley to the point where they feel uncomfortable around you." I said<br/>Eren opened the door to Brook's room and he was looking at his new phone. <br/>"Oh hey dad." greeted Brooks<br/>"When did you get the new phone?" asked Eren<br/>His tone sounded pissed.<br/>"Uncle Ajax gave it to me because he broke my phone." replied Brooks<br/>Eren stormed up to Brooks, snatched his phone and grabbed the collar of his shirt and glared at him.<br/>"You're such an ungrateful brat aren't you, accepting his shit while you take my shit like a joke." he growled, "Why don't you fucking live with him huh? You ungrateful piece of shit!"<br/>"Eren!" I snapped<br/>He shoved Brooks away who was trembling in fear and dropped the phone and he stormed out of the house.<br/>"Brooks are you okay?" I asked as I hugged him<br/>Ashley came running into his room and Brooks burst into tears.<br/>"It's okay, he didn't mean it, he's just tired." I comforted Brooks as he cried into my chest. <br/>Ashley looked scared as she watched Brooks cry. <br/>"It's okay, go to your room." I told Ashely<br/>She nodded and ran to her room as I tucked Brooks into bed.<br/>"I'm scared." cried Brooks<br/>"It's okay don't worry, he's a good man." I comforted him<br/>I kissed his cheeks and turned off the lights. <br/>"Take a nap, I'll be at work." I said<br/>He nodded so I closed the door and tried calling Eren but he didn't pick up his phone.<br/>"Fucking Jaeger." I growled<br/>But then someone was calling me but it was from a number I didn't know but I picked it up. <br/>"Sorry this is a burner phone." said the voice<br/>"Who are you?" I asked<br/>"Sorry forgot about that, it's me Captain Kit." said the voice<br/>"Kit?! I mean Logan." I quickly went from a yell to a whisper<br/>"Yea so right now I just noticed that Eren went into the house and immediately left. Is that normal?" he asked<br/>"No he got a bit frustrated with something so he left." I said<br/>"Okay, I'll keep you posted but I'll be using different numbers and we'll only have 1 minute to talk." said Kit<br/>"Okay I got it." I replied<br/>I ended the call and left the house and headed towards the hospital.</p>
