After, a few titan killing on the way, I rest myself on a random roof as the blood from titans evaporate from my uniform.

'I never knew real life titans can be more difficult to kill than fake ones. They should do a one time training on the training regiment on killing real life titans'

My thoughts were interrupted by a loud stomping.

'An abnormal?'

I began to fly away using my odm to the sound.

Some elite squads were far infront of me as they couldn't reach the abnormal titan.

'Hmmm. I should use a little boost of gas then hook myself on the titan.'

Mikasa them reappeared as she overtook the titan as it fell down infront of the evacuating citizens.

I landed on the dead titan's head next to Mikasa.

"Good job Mikasa" I congratulated her as I glanced to the entrance that was blocked by a big wagon and furrowed my eyebrows. "What the heck is happening right now?"

"Oh perfect timing" a man in a brown suit said "Hey you make these people help me out! I'll reward you handsomely!"

'This son of a- '

"My comrades are dying right now " Mikasa spoke "because the evacuation is lagging, they're fighting the titans and dying."

"Course they are. It's your duty to offer your lives to protect citizens and their property. Isn't it?! Don't get full of yourselves just because you freeloaders are finally doing your job after a hundred years!" The man exclaimed.

I came down from the titan head and walked to the man as the crowed made me way for myself as I gave a smile whilst I was walking.

Two people were trying to stop me but failed as I kicked their shins.

"So old man." I spoke as I gripped his collar with my left hand, raising him up in the air as my right hand held my blade just infront of his neck "Let's play a game? How about you'll die and let your precious belongings out of the wall or... You'll live and let the citizens go out before your precious belongings..."

"P-president" one of the old man's men said.

"Move the wagon" the old man said as I let the man go and the wagon was moved making the other citizens escape.

"Reminding you again on Good job on killing the abnormal" I spoke to Mikasa.

"Thank you big sis" A small voice spoke that belong to a young girl with her mother.

"We're saved thanks to you two" the mother then spoke "thank you so much"

Mikasa put her blades back then did the salute as I followed her.

"Its time for us to do some more work. Take care" I waved them goodbye as me and Mikasa went away.

It began raining as we met up with the same Garrison a while ago on the roof.

"Good work taking it down Ackerman" the Garrison said.

"Thank you very much. However... I dulled my blades with a single blow with impatience. I'll be more mindful next time." Mikasa spoke as she unhook her blades of her handle and replaced it with new ones.

"Oh by the way, Yeager. You did a good job on killing most of the titans in the area" the Garrison said as I thanked him for the compliment.

"Just what kind of life have you two been living until now.. Nevermind it's nothing" The Garrison spoke.

'Hardwork. I guess?' I answered in my head.

I look over the direction of more titans in the farther part of the area.

'Titans... Oh titans. Where do you all come from?..'

I sliced the last titan that I have seen moments ago as the big bell rang.

"We're withdrawing, Ackerman, Yeager" the Garrison spoke "Climb up the wall"

"I'll support the vanguard's withdrawal" Mikasa spoke as she went away.

"Ackerman!"

"So do I" I said as I covered my head with the hood of my cloak and left, following Mikasa from behind.

Me and Mikasa landed on a small tower in the vanguard section.

There were 3 people in a roof as I saw HQ being surrounded by titans.

"Mikasa, let's go find Armin" I spoke as the two of us flew with our ODM.

______________________

Once we spotted the rest of the 104th trainee, we began to land on the roof and ran to them.

"Mikasa, Y/N?. Weren't you two supposed to be in the rear guard?" Connie asked as we went up to Annie.

"Annie! We have the gist of the situation and I apologize for sounding selfish but have you seen Eren's squad?" Mikasa asked.

"I haven't seen them. Nobody climbed the wall either." Annie replied.

"Oh yeah, Armin's over there" Reiner pointed to Armin sitting on the roof who looked glum.

"Armin!" Me and Mikasa chanted together as he startled up and we went up to him.

'Why do I have a bad feeling for this?'

"Armin, are you okay? Are you hurt? And where's Eren?" I asked him as I touched his shoulder. "And why are you slimy?"

Admin began to cry as he looked up to Mikasa who stood up.

The look in his eyes already gave it's answer as I felt a pang of sadness inside of me.

"Those.. of the 34th training squad.. Thomas Wagner, Nac Tias, Mylius Zerasmuski, Mina Carolina and Eren Yeager"

'I know what he's going to say next and I don't want to hear it'

"Have fufilled their duties and was heroically killed in action" Even though I covered my ears, I still heared what he said as I tried battling the tears from flowing.

'Eren, my dear brother. The one that I was supposed to protect until the titans go away died. I promised to protect you when you were a baby. I saw you so little and fragile that I promised to protect you.'

"I'm sorry Y/N, Mikasa. Eren died in my stead... I... couldn't do anything..." Armin sobbed "I'm sorry"

"Armin, calm down" all I could see in Mikasa's eyes were blank. "This isn't the time to be getting sentimental"

"Stand up" Mikasa helped Armin stand up as Mikasa began to talk to Marco about destroying more titans.

As for me, I was still sitting on the roof as I tried to battle the tears as I was trembling a little.

'Mikasa is right. This isnt the time to get sentimental Y/N. But.... Eren... he-'

"Y/N?" Armin asked worryingly. I stood up and breathe in loudly as I patted Armin's shoulder.

"Don't worry Armin" I tried giving a smile but ended up giving a weird one.

'Eren. I promise to visit the sea for you.'

"Y/N!" Admin shouted as I went away following Mikasa to HQ.

Mikasa was going fast. Too fast for ODM gear.

'She's using so much of her gas'

I looked behind me and saw the others following up.

It's hard following up to her as she uses so much gas.

Mikasa had no more gas as she began to fall on the roof

"Mikasa!" Armin shouted as he went to Mikasa.

"Y/N! You're in charge. I'll stick with Armin" Connie spoke.

"No me too!" Jean said.

"There's still more titans Trost boy!" I spoke "We need more skilled people"

And with that Connie left to go with Armin as Jean was with me.

"Its no good. We can't go close to HQ" Jean spoke as we stood up a tower.

Suddenly a guy was out of gas and was surrounded with two titans

Another trainee tried to save him but got captured by the titan.

'A chance to save the guy who had no gas'

I jumped down the tower and sliced the two titans' nape as I took the guy's arm and safely brought him up the tower.

"That... was fast" Jean said as he looked down at my sprained ankle. "You're injured"

"I'm fine. When I fell down the tower, I accidentally sprained it but I can still run"

"Thank you so much for saving me. I owe you my life" The guy who's name was Tom sobbed greatfully.

"No problem. Our issue is to head to HQ without anymore sacrifices. Now that I have a sprained ankle, its hard to fight the titans by myself. " I blandly said.

'Why couldn't I save the other trainee? Maybe I was stressed out'

The titans were distracted by their meal as I nodded Jean who knew what I was thinking.

"Now! Rush over to HQ now!" Jean began to run as me, Sasha, Marco and the others ran with him to HQ.

'Seeing a titan eating it in close feels q bit of deja vu'

______________________

We began to zip to HQ as I killed the titans on the way despite of the pain of my twisted ankle.

"Jean, Y/N! Thanks to you two. We got away" Marco spoke as I ran a bit faster to avoid getting a bit of sentimental to compliments.

'I hope your ok in the afterlife Eren'

Ereh.

I'm supposed to think of a hypothesis right now but.... yeh sorry :)))))))
