(Y/N) was warming up by herself as instructed by Chief Shadis. Today was conditioning and sparring. It was by no means your favorite time since you hated the bruises and strains you felt the morning after. But it was simply something you had to deal to get stronger as a soldier. The commander began pairing cadets by groups of two, until a few of you were left unpaired. “(Y/N)! You’re with Braun!” You mentally smacked yourself. Out of all the people you could’ve been partners with. It had to be a literal beef train. Something tells you that you’re going to feel the aftermath of this spar for at least a week.
You and Reiner got into position, as the knife was handed to you first. You eyed the blonde nervously while he gave you a cheeky grin. He immediately charged at you, causing you to widen you eyes in surprise. Not long afterwards, you were tackled to the ground. He got off of you laughing and walking away. “Maybe next time!” He called to you. You laid there for a little longer trying to process what just happened. Regaining your breath, you locked your legs around his and knocked him down. The entire training grounds became silent as everyone stopped to look at what just happened. It wasn’t everyday that someone could best him. Not even Eren could. You stood up and dusted the dirt off your uniform and returned his cocky grin back at him. “Who the hell do you think you are?” He said bouncing back to his feet abruptly. “Well-” You began, “That was a rhetorical question.” He cut you off. He picked up the wooden knife and tossed it back at you. He admired your determination. “Round two?”
