Shrinking

"This can't be happening..."

Levi couldn't believe it. He couldn't stop staring at himself in the full length mirror in his bedroom.

Something was wrong with him. He looked different. He looked...shorter.

"Jaeger get in here!" he shouted.

Eren burst through the door.

"Levi!" he cried running towards the short man, arms wide open, smile on his face. He was happy to be needed by his superior.

Levi kicked him in the stomach.

Poor Eren toppled over in pain.

"S...sir why..."

"I didn't call you in here for a hug. I called you to ask you a question."

Holding his stomach, doing his best to ignore the pain, "What question sir?" Eren asked.

"Do I look shorter to you?"

"Is that a trick question?"

PUNCH!

Tears burst out of Eren's eyes.

"I'l ask you again do I look shorter to you?"

"No sir." Eren lied.

KICK!

"Are you sure about that?"

At this point poor Eren was rolling around on the floor. What did Levi want from him? What answer could he give to avoid getting hit again?

"Well Jaeger?"

As he laid on the floor Eren thought about his answer very carefully until he noticed something strange. The heels on Levi's boots were worn out.

Levi pulled his foot back ready to kick Eren in the gut. He was taking way too long to answer him.

"Sir wait!" Eren begged, still lying on the floor. "You look shorter but it's not your fault! The heels on your boots are worn out. That's why you look shorter. It's not you, it's the boots sir! It's the boots!

Levi stared at Eren as Eren stared back hoping that Levi would find his answer acceptable. It felt like an eternity went by before Levi finally replied.

"I see. That makes sense."

Eren sighed in relief.

"You may go now."

"Sir I don't think that's possible."

"Why not?"

"Because I can barely move."

"Why's that?"

"Because you attacked me!"

"You make it sound like I did something wrong, like it's my fault your like this."

"IT IS YOUR FAULT I'M LIKE THIS!"
