Eren couldn't say anything. He just stared slack-jawed at Gear, hoping this was all some kind of mistake. Part of him wanted to believe this was all just a dream--that he was still sitting in his tiny bunk on the lower deck of Discovery Charter 10L6, nodding off while his roommate nattered on about time displacement and eon discrepancies.
Eren flinched as another screamed echoed against the walls from a room out of view, followed by the buzz of tools and footsteps. Three guards barged into the common room, each carrying a piece of equipment that Eren didn't recognize.
"Random sample test!" bellowed the largest of them.
Eren couldn't help but stare as they began circling the room. He looked to Gear for answers but only then noticed that the rest of the prisoner had become still. None of them moved and every one of them avoided eye contact with their captors. Shaken, Eren was about to follow suit when he was ripped from his chair and thrown to the ground.
"The new one will do."
