Many people have witnessed Akira's reunion, and they can hear rumours around him, but Akira doesn't care at all.
Erin broke the hug while rubbing her tears off as she said, "It's good to know that you are alive..."
Akira can see Erin has long hair that is tight behind her head, and her body is more feminine. Truly, Akira can see his old friend Asuka in Erin right now.
Akira sighed as he gave a smile while petting Erin's head. "I'm sorry to make you both cry and worry because of me, Erin-chan, Mikasa-chan..."
Both girls' faces start to blush when Akira says their name with a suffix at the end of it. It's the first time to them that Akira calls them Chan at the end of their names.
Akira also noticed Mikasa, who also had long hair and wore a blue scarf around her neck.
Akira sighed as he said, "I have been searching for you all since the day we got separated from each other. I got a report that you guys are alive, but they didn't record where you live."
Mikasa held Akira's scarred cheek as she said, "Is that why you decided to become Keith's assistant? to find us?"
Akira smiles warmly as he replies, "Yeah..."
They blush again, and it's rare for them to see Akira smile, even when they are kids; Akira always seems grumpy and doesn't talk much.
Mikasa is the one who has started to become like Akira since he left, and now they both smile. Erin is so happy that her best friend is slowly back to her normal self.
"Now go back to your cabin, and I'll meet you later, okay?" Akira said as he looks the sky, and he remembered he had a meeting to go to.
Mikasa and Erin hugged Akira before they went back into the girls' cabin. Armin looks at them and smiles; he also walks to the boy's Cabin.
---
Akira finishes the instructor meeting with another instructor. Akira looks at the night sky with a happy expression on his face.
Keith walked closer to the boy and scoffed as he asked, "You look happy? And it's weird... did you find them?"
The light blue hair smiles while the winds blow his hair softly, and he replies, "Yeah..."
Keith scoffed once again and smiled as he asked, "So you gonna stop now?"
Akira gives the bald man a normal expression as he replies. "No, I will train the cadet and make them able to defend themself. As you said, tomorrow would be hell for them."
Keith sighed in defeat as he said, "I still can't believe Captin Levi is the one who thought you to use ODM."
Akira scoffed with a smirk as he said, "It wasn't that hard..."
Keith looked at the light blue-haired soldier as he said, "Hmm... Remember, tomorrow at 6 am and don't be late! AGAIN!"
Akira waved it off as he said, "Aright-aright... see yah, Keith." Akira walks away toward the recruit Cabin.
Keith sighed as he said to himself, "He lacks discipline, but he is also on par with Levi on his ODM test, but that was two years ago..."

Akira saw the potato girl still running, but it looked like she was walking now. He guesses the girl is about to collapse any time now.
Akira saw three recruits watching Sasha running: Riner, Annie, and Bertholdt.
As soon they see Akira, they go back inside; Akira notices Annie looking at him for a couple of seconds as she follows her comrade inside. In Akira's mind, her face looks familiar to him.
But he put the thought away and walked closer to the Potato girl.
Sasha couldn't even walk anymore as she suddenly collapsed. But at the time she fell, she felt like she fell into someone's back.
Sasha slowly opened her eyes as she saw the light, blurry hair right in front of her face.
Akira sighed as he gave the piggyback to Sasha, and he said, "Now, did you learn your lesson?"
'Yes... I'm... I'm so thirsty and hungry..." Sasha mutters as she crosses her arm around Akria's neck to make her keep in place.
Akira chuckled as he said, "Let's head back to the dining hall and get some ration." Akira carries the girl on his back.
Sasha, in her mind, has thought. 'He helps me? Maybe Instructor Akira isn't that cruel at all... and he also looks kinda cool and handsome too...' Sasha blushed a bit, but Akira didn't notice.
---
It's dinner time, so everyone is gathering in the dining hall. Almost all the recruits are there, so have some dinner. Then, Akira opened the door, and the loud hall fell into silence.
Akira saw them all looking at him, and Akira ignored them as he continued to walk in and lay Sasha down on the bench chair. He said, "Someone, give her some water!"
Another 30 seconds, see the one who takes the cup of water. It was a hair girl. Akira guesses her name is Mina, a girl with black hair and black eyes with a light skin tone.
"Here." Mina gives it to Akira as he takes the cup.
"Hey, get up, drink this," Akira said as he gave the water to Sasha.
Sasha growled as she obviously lied when she said, "No, my body is extremely tired. I couldn't get up. Can you feed me?"
"Troublesome..." Akira sighs as Sasha looks at his face with a weak smile, and he smiles back. He pours the water into her face, making the brown girl sit up and wipe the water off her face. "Ah, there you go. You aren't tired anymore."
Sasha was mad as she asked. "Why did you do that?!"
Akira sighed as he gave a smile that made Sasha blush and pout, and he said, "Get up, eat something, and get rest later, okay?"
Akira receives a nod from the potato girl as he walks away from her and finds Erin, Mikasa, and Armin.
The light blue soldier walks toward them as Erin sees him coming, and she says, "Instructor Akira, are you eating yet?" Erin tries to be as formal as possible when she has a lot of people around her, but she gets a sweatdrop from Akira.
Akira waved his hand as he said, "I'm off duty, so just call me Akira, and no, I haven't yet."
Mikasa looked at him, and she stood while saying, "Then wait here... I will get some food."
Akira looks at Mikasa as he tries to deny it. "No thanks, I'll eat later."
Mikasa gave a glare as she said again, "No, you must eat."
Akira sighed and replied, "Alright-alright..."
Mikasa left the table with a smile as she took some food to him. The hall was still not as loud as it had been. Akira could hear the whisper of their voice talking about him, and he didn't like it because he felt like he had caused the negative energy.
Two minutes later, Mikasa came back with food, and she placed the plate right in front of Akira.
"There you go," Mikasa said with a smile as Akira only grabbed some of the bread on the plate and stood up.
Akira smiled as he said, "I'm sorry, Mikasa-chan, I forgot I have something to do. You know being Keith's assistant isn't easy at all, and don't worry, I'll eat this later."
Mikasa pouted as she said again, "Make sure you will eat, okay?"
"Yeah-yeah, see ya tomorrow, Mikasa-chan, Erin-chan, Armin," Akira said with a smile while waving his hand as he walked out of the halls.
Then, almost everyone runs closer toward Erin, Mikasa, and Armin.
"Hey! I'm Connie! How do you know, Instructor Akira?" The one asking is a bald man with yellow eyes.
Erin looked at Connie as she said, "Huh? He is my childhood friend."
Then, another man talks to Mikasa. He also has undercut hair like Akira but not spiky and light brown hair colour.
"So, where are you guys from?" Jean asked, but Mikasa didn't say a word as Erin answered him.
"Jean, right?" She receives a nod from the undercut hair man. "We are from Shiganshina."
Then everyone is shocked as Sasha slams her food plate to the table with a mouth full of food.
Sasha's mouth was full of food while trying to say something, "Nuf... waf... sof yof-" Then someone smacked Sasha's head; as the potato looked behind her, she saw a tall girl with brown hair to make her stop talking.
"Don't talk while your mouth is full!" The tall girl yells as Sasha swallows the food down her throat.
Sasha giggles as she forgets the tall girl's name, "Sorry... ahh?"
"Ymir." The tall girl known as Ymir said her name.
Sasha rubbed her head back as she said, "Sorry... Ymir, now, as I say. No way! So you guys are a survivor from Shiganshina?"
Armin is the one who answered this time. "Yes, we are."
Connie got excited as he asked, "So you saw the Titan that broke the wall?"
"Yes, we are! It is tall! More than 50 meters tall." Erin explained with also excitement,
Then, another three-person walk toward them. They are Reiner, Annie, and Bertholdt.
Reiner asks, "Did you see the monster and the giant?"
Armin nodded, and this time, he replied, "Yes, we did. They were even taller and more powerful. Thanks to Ultraman, he saves our life, and most people live."
Christa stands behind Sasha as she asks, "Ultraman? Is the Ultraman name of the colourful titan?"
Erin nodded with a smile, and he said, "That is what he calls himself."
Ymir narrowed her eyes when she caught something in Erin's words, "How did you know it was he?"
Erin begins to sweatdrop, "Ah... because the body is looking like a male?" Erin didn't know if she could reveal Akira's identity or not.
Ymir got closer to Erin and said, "Is that so..."
Before anyone can say anything, Jean interrupts them, "So, how did you guys meet Akira?"
"As I said, Akira is my childhood friend." Erin sighed; she had already explained it.
"He helps me from getting bullied." Armin
"Akira is my brother," Mikasa said in an emotionless tone. That sentence shocks them all except Erin and Armin.
Jean was shocked as he said, "Wait! Your brother? His hair colour didn't even match your or even his last name."
Mikasa didn't answer as she stood up and left the hall.
Erin once again answered the question, and with a sigh, she explained, "Akira was found by Mikasa's family when he was 5, and he has stayed with her family since then."
"Is that why they are so close?" Christa asks while wondering why Mikasa is so close to Akira.
"Yeah," Erin replies with a smile.
"Wait, what you mean he being found?" Annie needs to know. She needs to know if Akira's origin is outside the wall or outside this island.
Erin started to explain again, "Well, I'm not the one who is supposed to say it, but if you wonder where Akira got his scar, he was found beaten badly outside the walls. I didn't know why he was outside. But I guess he is running away from someone. But that's just my guess, so don't think it's a true story."
Ymir narrows her eyes as everyone frowns as Annie walks out of the halls.
Sasha has another question about Akira as she asks, "So Akira, you are your childhood friend, right? Then I want to know... Is his hair colour real?"
Erin sighed as she replied. "Yeah, it's real. He got it from his mother."
Then, the question continues.

Annie walks back to her Cabin, and she sees Mikasa and Akira in front of the girl's cabin door. She saw Mikasa hug Akira as she walked into the Cabin.
Annie walked closer to him; she said, "So this is your work, huh?"
Akira chuckled as he replied, "Hey, I just finished my work, and Mikasa is looking for me." Then, something strikes his brain—memories from other dimensions and his past. Right now, Annie's face is clear in his mind as he remembers her when she helps him. "Annie, can we talk somewhere?"
Annie fell into silence as she replied after a second, "..... Sure....."
"Then, come with me," Akira said as he walked to somewhere private with Annie following behind him.
---
Akira and Annie are alone in the forest. Annie thinks they are far enough as she asks, "We are here. What do you want to talk about?"
Akira stops as he looks at her with a serious face, and he asks, "You are Titan Shifter, aren't you?"
Annie looks at Akira with wide eyes open and shocked.
