Eren could barely believe the sight in front of him. The yells of his friends around him could barely be heard through the pounding in his. He was soaked in blood, only a small bit of it his. As he stared at the 19 meter titan above him he felt a hand grab him. It was Mikasa.
"Eren! We have to go! There's nothing we can do for him now!" Eren stared at her blankly. She sounded like him, but he wouldn't have yelled. Eren let a small smile grace his face. He'd always loved that about him. He was so calm in these situations.
Mikasa started to pull Eren to his feet but the Titan Shifter grabbed her arm and shoved her away, "Go," He said, just barely audible. Mikasa seemed like she was about to protest, "I'm going to buy you some time to get out of here, and then I'm going to be with him again!"
Eren spun around and practically bit through his arm, his anger finally spilling over. Mikasa watched in horror as Eren shifted an before she knew it Jean was pulling her away. She was turned away from her brother and told to run. She listened, but couldn't help looking back as his roar echoed through the air.
The Rogue grabbed his first victim. The 19 meter that had screwed the whole operation. Eren sweeped it's legs out from under it and put his fist through it's neck, destroying it's nape. He roared, not in triumph but out of grief. He stood and waited for more challengers.
Levi shook his head, this squad was too small and too inexperienced now for them to take down a 19 meter. They would've followed his orders to run. Well, one wouldn't. Stupid kid. Nile would have a field day if this gets out. Levi reached to see if he still had his weapons. Luckily, three of his blades were still intact.
The raven moved to the side of the titan's "stomach." Maybe he could cut through it. Levi drew the blade back, and thrust.
Eren grabbed a 16 meter titan, and slammed it into a nearby house. He stomped it's nape and turned around. There were only a few in the distance, and not enough houses around to repeat that move. A 8 meter lunged at him, and Eren quickly punted it towards the larger ones. He roared again, getting ready to charge.
Before he knew it, he was on the back of a horse. Levi's horse. Eren was exhausted but he recognized the body he was pressed against. Levi was alive. He had tried to play hero and it had probably hurt his captain more. Eren smiled as he slowly drifted out of consciousness.
Levi tied the younger man to himself and the horse, glancing back. The titans were a good ways off, thanks to Eren. They would be able to regroup with the others by nightfall if they pushed their horse. Eren seemed to be waking but the brat immediately grabbed his sides and slumped against his back. Levi let himself smile slightly, he almost lost his brat.
A/N: Did you guys know that the past tense of thrust is thrust? I didn't. Also, there will be a flashback chapter next to fill in the holes this one left. Sorry about it being so short!
