When Eren came to, he could hear muffled voices but they sounded distant. Almost like there was something thick blocking him from the owners of said voices. Then there was the soft whirring above him, not too close but enough that Eren could feel slight blasts of cool air brush against his skin.

Groaning, Eren lolled his head to the side, lids fluttering lightly but not opening. He was lying on something soft and warm. A bed he assumed. A very fluffy, and comfortable one. The air smelled of flowers but it was faint.

"Levi. . ?" He mumbled in confusion and groginess, not exactly registering what was coming out of his mouth or thinking at all.

Slowly, very slowly, Eren's emerald-gold eyes opened and the first thing he saw was a white, cracked ceiling along with a blurry object swinging round and round straight above him, giving off cool air. He sluggishly turned his head to the side to lazily take in the place around him. There was a old two-drawer nightstand next to the bed, with a dimly, lit lamp and a dirty vase with a single wilted rose. There was also a wooden chair in the corner of the room. The walls had peeled wallaper and was slightly stained a nasty yellow due to oldness. Other than that, this place seemed pretty empty and organized.

Brows furrowing, Eren blinked a couple of more times in absolute confusion before it suddenly clicked all together. Memories came rushing back like a wave crashing down upon the beach. Eyes widening, Eren shot up only to hiss as the world spun around him and he collapsed back onto the bed, impatiently willing the dizziness to disperse. He groaned again and clutched his head for several seconds before letting one of his hands grope around, searching and searching---

"Dammit!" He growled in irritation, teeth clenching tightly. No weapons. They must've took them from him. Not only that but Eren seemed to be dressed in a thin light blue gown. His clothes were gone too. He had nothing.

Fuck, he thought and glared angrily at the ceiling.

He waited several more seconds before slowly, and this time carefully, he sat up, still feeling slightly sluggish. He heard the sounds of metal clinking and glanced down to see what he hadn't noticed before; his right wrist trapped in a pair of cuffs that were cuffed to the head post of the bed.

Just then, the door to the room burst open with a loud bang catching Eren's attention. He was tensed and alert as a he watched a group of five to six men enter the room. Four of them were dressed as the same men who had dragged Farlan and Levi out the truck.

But Eren had his eyes on the two men in the middle.

The one who seemed to be in charge smirked wickedly at Eren. His dark eyes held a feral glint to them that made Eren slightly nervous in his vulnerable position though he refused to show it. The man was young, possibly in his late teens or early twenties with spiky dark brown hair and pale skin. He was good looking with sharp features and strong arms although Eren would never go for a psychopath regardless of their looks. It was completely obvious this guy was not right in his head.

He wore a tight black shirt that clung to the curves and sculpted muscles of his body and dark pants with boots. Two guns were in their holsters on each hip and he carried an air of authority and danger around him, warning people to stay back.

The man next to him was about the same age, handsome and young, but was the complete opposite. He had gold blonde hair that was parted and swept messily more to the left side, curling about his cheek and bangs falling over intelligent, night blue eyes. He wore a crisp white button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up to the elbows and dark jeans. He looked bored and calm wheras his friend looked excited and crazy.

They were the complete yin-yang pair.

He carried no weapons but Eren wasn't fooled. He knew a strong alpha when he saw one. And these two were definitely powerful. Possibly more.

He hardened his stare and grit his teeth, glaring at them to show he wouldn't back down under anyone. "Who are you and where the fuck am I?" He snapped.

The dark haired man grinned even more, displaying his white fangs. "It'd be best you calm down," he warned, though never dropped his grin. He seemed cheery. "You wouldn't want your precious friends to die now would you?"

When Eren said nothing, staying silent and still, the alpha barked out a harsh, manic laugh and it was then Eren noticed a scar on the alpha's cheek, running straight down to his jawline.

The man spread his arms out, and introduced himself, the smirk never leaving his face as he said. "My name is Rezrik and this is my pal, Vin." He clapped his friend on the back though Vin remained unmoving. "Vinny! Say something will ya?"

Vin sighed and grabbed Eren's gaze with his own. His eyes seemed cold, and distant though there was a spark of something in them that Eren couldn't place a name to. He lazily waved his hand at Eren.

Rezrik laughed and looked at Eren. "He doesn't talk much. He's a quiet little mouse." He grinned wide.

"You still didn't answer my question..." Eren tried to hold in his anger. He was getting impatient and needed to find Levi, Mikasa and Farlan fast. Who knows what could have happened to them. He couldn't stand the thought of them lying somewhere, hurt and vulnerable; unable to defend themselves.

"Don't worry, baby. I can assure you ain't anywhere dangerous." Rezrik whistled, eyes roaming up Eren's legs. When Eren pulled them to his chest, Rezrik snickered mockingly. "Anyways," he continued and nodded to one of his men.

Another alpha stepped forward and began to advance on Eren who tensed up even more and hissed threateningly. "Get the hell away from me!" but he was ignored.

Once the alpha was close enough, he was released from the chains and dragged off the bed and toward the group of alphas. He knew he couldn't fight them, the drug or whatever the hell they used, was still running in his veins making his movement heavy and slow. He stood there before Rezrik and Vin, glaring up at them scathingly. Daring them to make their next move on him.

Rezrik tilted his head to the side and pretended to be sad and worried. "Why the look, babe?" He pouted.

"Where are my friends? What the hell did you do to them? Where is Mikasa?" Eren growled out. He was starting to get very irritated with Rezrik. The alpha was insane and played nothing but games. But Eren still had to be cautious around him. Who knew what this man was capable of.

"That, darling, will be explained at dinner." Rezrik grinned and snapped his fingers once.

~{◇}~

Eren sat a circular, marbled table with heavy deep oak chairs, designed beautifully and patiently. A feast had been layed out before him; roasted chicken and cooked beef, ham, green beans, mashed potatoes, shrimp, cheese and bean stew with freshly baked garlic bread. There was even desert like Apple and cherry pie, with ice cream, cookies, cakes and cut fruits in a bowl. There was much more but Eren didn't bother to eat or care for that matter.

Although he was curious as to where the bastards managed to find or make all this food. Surely all this luxuries were tough to come across in such a state the world was in.

Rezrik sat on his right side with Vin next to him loyally. The blonde haired man was silent as he ate while Rezrik grinned at Eren, his eyes feral and mad. "You should eat, get some fat on your body. You're too skinny."

"No thanks," Eren grunted and crossed his arms dismissively.

Rezrik shrugged and snatched a fresh loaf of bread from the basket on the table. He bit out of it and Eren watched as those perfect, sharp white fangs sank into the bread easily, tearing at it visciously. The image reminded Eren greatly of a dangerous, ravenous wolf with it's prey, tearing at it's bloody meat. Eren shivered.

His eyes met Rezrik's and the man winked at him before chewing and swallowing his food. "So," he paused then tapped his chin as he set his bitten loaf down onto his plate. "The reason why you're here is because a certain group of little people thought they could just waltz into my territory,"

Eren frowned, "But we didn't---"

"And," the alpha continued, cutting off Eren like he hadn't spoken at all. "We had gotten a interesting visitor," he stopped before licking his lips and turning dilated, manic eyes on Eren. Suddenly those teeth seemed 100 times sharper than before as he smirked ferally. "Asking for a little brunette bunny with pretty eyes."

Eren shifted in his seat, his blood running cold. While he hadn't wanted to accept it, he had a small clue as to who was asking or rather looking for him. It seemed impossible yet crazy.

It's true and you know it, he's coming for you and you can't stop him. A voice whispered to him in his head. Eren swallowed.

"This guy....." Eren started, "Was he blonde? Tall?"

Rezrik shrugged again and glanced at Vin, asking, "What do you think, Vinny? Was he blonde?" He turned to Eren and smiled like a child. "Nah I think he had purple hair, with rainbow eyes." He thought for a moment. "Yup, definitely purple hair. Although all that could be in my head so don't ask me,"

He then leaned over to whisper, his eyes wide and glancing around like he was telling a secret, "Sometimes my mind likes to imagine things that aren't even real, and I hear these voices in my head," he pointed to his head, smiling like a physcopath. If only he had blood splattered across his face then he would be the perfect representation of a psychopathic serial killer. "Shouting at me and screaming, like they wanna be let out, and sometimes. . . They tell me useful things. . . But that's rare, heh. Most of the time I'm too fucked up to pay attention to anything." he shook his head and leaned back away.

This guy is fucking nuts, Eren thought with furrowed brows.

Rezrik began to nibble on his bread, "but you----"

The doors opened and one of the men from before walked in. He stood behind Rezrik and whispered something into his ear before stepping away. Rezrik frowned heavily, and sighed, standing and pushing his chair back. "Guess we should stop here, I got business to attend to. Vinny will you send him down with the others?"

"Wait, you still haven't even told me----" Eren tried to call out to him but it was too late. Rezrik was gone and Vin, the silent man, had stood from his chair.

"Follow me if you want to see your friends," He said, voice devoid of any emotion. It was deep and smooth, each word coming out perfectly and calmly.

He walked away from the table, leaving Eren to scramble out of his seat and hurry after him, eager to see Levi, Mikasa and Farlan, his friends whom he was itching to see since he first got here.

I hope they're okay, Eren thought worriedly and looked down at his fingers as they both began to leave the room. The food forgotten on the table.

In silence, Eren was lead down the empty and quiet hall, then down some staircases, every now and then they'd come across more heavily guarded men leaving Eren to contemplate just how many people were in the building. There had to be so much if this town was "their" territory.

Eren stayed a wary distance from Vin as he was lead to the lower and much darker floors--- to the basement he assumed. It was much colder and the air was musty. Definitely not a condition his friends should be in. The cool cemented floor sent chills up his spine, causing goosebumps to rise on his skin due to the lack of warm clothes.

They took a right and started walking down a long narrow hall. There was hardly any light down here and somewhere Eren could hear the dripping of water echoing throughout the basement. There was some rusty metal fences surrounding generators which is where Eren assumed they got their electricity from. Old pipes lined the walls and edges of the floor along with multitudes of dark stains.

They kept walking until Vin stopped before some metal bars. Eren looked inside and immediately his heart clenched at the sight of Levi and Farlan , opposite of eachother, slumped against the dirty and moldy walls, their wrists chained to a metal rusting pipe. They looked sluggish and like they could barely comprehend anything. They had been drugged so much they couldn't even keep their heads up, instead letting it hang and loll about their shoulders.

Eren ran to the bars and clenched it tightly, knuckles turning white and shooting a glare over his shoulder at Vin who remained unfazed. He scowled and growled, "Open it. Now,"

Vin merely raised a brow before reaching into his pocket to patiently search for his key. After finding it, he stepped forward and began to unlock the cell door, swinging it open with a low squeal.

Eren wasted no time in dashing in, falling to his knees beside Levi to cup the unconscious alpha's face. The raven was cold and his breathing was shallow and unsteady, making Eren even more worried. Suddenly a torrent of fury burst through his veins and Eren grit his teeth, slowly turning his head to glare at the nonchalant blond alpha behind him.

"What have you guys done to them?" He growled lowly, clutching Levi's head to his chest all the while stroking the raven's scalp. Unknowingly to him Levi was unconsiously emitting a soft purring noise so silent Eren couldn't even hear it over the anger pulsing in his ears.

Vin stared back at Eren his dark blue eyes clashing with Eren's vivid, blazing green. He tilted his head to the side and spoke casually, calmly. "It was not my idea to put them in this state. But Rez didn't want to risk letting you guys wander about freely. After all, you're strangers in our place. We don't need any trouble."

"We meant no harm," Eren glowered defiantly. "And we didn't know it was your so called 'territory' we were just trying to get through."

"Rez isn't exactly the generous type." Vin murmured, and this time Eren saw a hint of sadness in his gaze, the way his voice went soft and quiet and his brows furrowed. But it all happened so quick, Vin was back to his nonchalant self, with the same apathetic expression. "Come,"

Reluctantly, Eren let go of Levi carefully before standing up. He dusted the dirt off his clothes before following behind Vin who locked the cell door after Eren walked out.

Vin then led Eren down several more empty, old cells before stopping in front of another one. There was hardly any lighting, and Eren could barely make out a large lump of black on the ground. With a gasp of realization, and furrowed brows, Eren murmured out a small, "Mika. . . . "

The raven haired wolf had several cuffs around her limbs with heavy chains linking them to the dirty walls. A metal muzzle had been tightly placed on her to prevent her from snapping or biting anyone that came close. It hurt Eren to see Mikasa like this, vulnerable and weak. Defenseless and immobile.

Eren gripped the bars tightly his muscles clenching to refrain himself from whirling around and punching Vin in the throat.

Breathing through his nose, Eren slowly let go of the bars and crossed his arms, turning around to face Vin who was unfazed by it all. He showed no remorse for Eren or his friends. He was like an empty shell, devoid of any emotion of feeling. He looked Eren in the eye briefly before turning towards the way they came through. "We should go now,"

Eren raised a brow, finally asking the question that has been bothering him since he arrived down here.  "Why are you letting me walk around freely like this? Aren't you guys afraid that I'll attack you or something?"

Vin shook his head slightly, "Afraid? No. Rez doesn't get afraid and besides, we have hundreds of trained men. I doubt you'll be able to take them all on with the condition you're in. And you know it," 

Eren nodded and bit his lip, "Fair enough,"

The alpha vegan walking back down the corridor and ascending the stairs with Eren following distantly behind, lost in his own thoughts.

He hated this.

He hated seeing his friends chained up, and hated how he was unable to do a thing about it. He hated feeling useless and weak while the drug ran through his veins. He hated being here and he hated every damn bastard in this place.

Especially Rezrik.

But Rezrik, he knew something and was keeping it from Eren. Eren wasn't blind. It was obvious Rezrik didn't like intruders. He knew the dark haired man was up to something. But Eren wasn't going to let him accomplish that goal, no, he was going to plan an escape, get Levi and the others and make it out of here. Alive.

Faint, muffled commotion brought him out of his thoughts and Eren paused in his steps turning his head to glance out the stained glass window while Vin continued on forward, unaware that Eren had stopped.

Outside on the street, Eren could see a group of Rezrik's men surrounding an old beat-up truck, with Rezrik in front. There were two elderly people, both women, shaking their hands at the alpha as if pleading. He couldn't make out the voices or what was being said but Eren saw Rezrik speaking and waving his hand dismissively.

One of the women dropped to the floor, sobbing and before Eren could understand what was happening, a cruel smile crossed the dark haired alpha's face as he swiftly pulled out his hand gun and shot the kneeling woman in the head. Blood splattered across the ground and a shot rang through the air.

Eren gasped and covered his mouth in shock, heart beating in his chest as he watched the other woman try to run only to be shot down mercilessly by Rezrik's men. Rezrik then turned away from the scene and said something to man next to him before moving on. But not before pausing and looking up, making eye contact with Eren's wide, green eyes from below. His dark eyes danced with dark, sinister and bloodlust before he turned away and left. 

The men then began to head towards the body, pulling the corpse by the arms and dragging it out of Eren's view. While other men began searching through the car.

Eren stood frozen in his spot, the memory of the elderly women's pleading faces before they were shot down like animals clear and fresh in his mind.

I need to leave, he swallowed thickly. Before he hurts Levi and Farlan too.

Hey guys :) Yeah, I know this is late but I had explained everything on a post in my profile if you want to know why I've been gone so long.

Other than that, this chapter may or may not makes sense? Because I started on it and it was half complete a week after chapter 13 was updated, and I've just now finished the rest. I'm sorry if it's not as long as ya'll wanted it to be.
Uh also I've noticed ppl are stealing my fics and publishing them somewhere else and it saddens and angers me to see my work stolen like that, so could you guys report them or just notify me of them? Thanks! :)

Also it's possible in the far future that I may/may not be abandoning my stories or accounts because of family problems. I might let someone else take over tho, Idk who tho. Maybe one of my followers, idk?

P.S. Vin and Rezrik are not being shipped with Eren btw. They're just made up, evil characters.
