Chapter 13: The Survey Corps
"We can't thank you enough, sir," Satoshi sighed the moment they left the courtroom. He still wasn't exactly sure what was going on, but Erwin had saved their lives and that was good enough for him. The commander smiled. "No need. Beating the Military Police twice in one day is new record for us."

Levi scoffed. "Yeah, we saved a titan shifter and a bunch of brats from execution. Kudos to us, we're-" Erwin cleared his throat, quickly ending the sarcastic rant. "He doesn't mean it," he said apologetically to the users. "But we do have a lot of questions for you." Hanji nodded happily, bounding over from where she had been examining Eren's regrown tooth, "You have to tell me everything about your world!" she exclaimed.

Batty's fiery passion was equal to the scientist's herself. "Well, you should start off by knowing that in our world, you're just a TV show; an anime. We were huge fans of the show, so I tried building this machine to take us to your universe. Long story short, it worked!" Hanji was vigorously taking notes.

"That's impossible," Levi said matter-of-factly. "Other worlds and teleportation devices like that don't exist." Batty met his doubtful argument head on. "Then how do you explain the fact that we just appeared in the middle of Wall Rose, with modern day clothes and no gear?" Before he could answer, Aravis broke in. "Besides, do we look like we're lying?" She was wearing a glare that could cut diamonds.

"Alright, that's enough," Erwin interrupted, growing impatient. "We have more important things to be discussing."

"Like how we want to join the Survey Corps," Niko stated abruptly. The room went silent and everybody turned to look at her. "Come on, guys, you know it's true," she said, shrugging. "This is the opportunity we've been waiting for. Until we find a way back home, the least we can do is help the military."

Batty, Von, Mad and Abby nodded in unison. Aravis sighed reluctantly, but agreed. Satoshi, who was at the moment hiding behind Abby, had no choice but to go along with them." Terrifying as the prospect of fighting titans was, he didn't feel like being separated from the group.
