I notice a large cloud of steam over the wall. I get off it and slowly back away. What was that? I think to myself. A large red face like object appears over the wall it was almost like. A Titan! It's muscly face stares over the wall. It kicked its massive foot and boulders flew every where. The only thing I could do was run. I'm not gonna make it! There's no way I can make I was leaning on the wall.
"I have to make it!" I notice my house under a rock. "Oh !"
There he was lying on the ground. He was alive. When I reach his side I notice his leg is gone. "Oh God! You'll be okay ill drag you."
"No go!" He says weakly "Go and live a good life. Here take this." He holds out a necklace with a horse charm on it."I was waiting for your birthdays but it's yours now. It was your mothers. I love you." A titan was coming I was still at least two miles away from escape. I run and look back. "I love you too!" And he's picked up by the titan. I freeze. Oh my god! I am sobbing. It takes a large bit out of him the sound of bones snapping make me cringe blood splatters every where. Staining the blonde tips of my light brown hair. It was over no family. I've never had a friend and I'm doomed. The titan smashed its foot into the ground next me and I flew into a piece of splintered wood. It pierced my entire left side leaving a red gashes on my face arm and thigh. I pull my self up off the ground and burst off as fast as I can go. It hurts to run but it I run. I see a crowd a few block ahead of me. The boats I can do this. I look straight forward not notice ing a large hole witch I tripped in. I tried to stand up but my ankle gave out. I must have broken it.
"Help! Someone! Please Help!" I scream suddenly I grow weak and the whole world vanishes into darkness.
I feel someone's arms carrying me. I open my eyes hazily. I see a boy no older than 11. He had scruffy back hair and blue gray eyes. What's happening? I think to myself quietly. He's strong for his age. He looks down and give me a small smile. You know that okay so your not dead smile kind of smile. I give a little one back using what strength I have left. And then close my eyes again.
Chapter 2
I feel some one shaking my shoulder. And soon I hear a voice no ones I can recognize. My flutter open and I look around me. "What happened?" I sit up and notice bandages covering my leg, torso, and head.
"You were lying on the ground bleeding so we picked you up and got you out." The boy with scruffy black hair said. He hands me my glasses. "You were waring these too." I push them onto my face.
"Are you okay?" The blonde boy asks.
"I guess I am." I try sitting up further. "Ow!" I cringe and sink back down into my fetal position.
"Ya. You're pretty beat up." The girl with a red scarf who'd been silent the entire time finally spoke.
I hold my necklace and squeeze it tightly. I couple tear fall down my cheek. I wipe them hopefully no one notices. "My names Emma ranger." I smile.
"Armin artlet." The blonde boy says.
"Eren Jaeger." Scruffy boy smiles back
"Mikasa Arkerman." She Buries her head into her scarf.
"So what happened to you during the attack? If you don't mind me asking." They all look at me.
"Well." I think of my uncle. A few more tear run down my face. "My uncle was eaten. I barely escaped. The titan that ate him stomp and sorta launched me into some rubble of wood. Hence the whole left side. When I get up I started running. And then tripped resulting in injuring my ankle." I sigh. "So that's when it gets a little hazy after. Now answer me a question. How long was I out?"
"About a two days. Long enough to miss erens squabble with the guards." Armins the first one to speak. Mikasa walks away. " your ankle should be better in about a week." He hands me a wood crutch and I pull myself up with that.
"When I turn twelve I'm going to join the cadets training squad. To join the legion..." I get stare from armin and a small smile from Eren. Mikasa comes back and hands me a piece of bread.
"Here. I think you might be hungry." She say quietly.
"Thanks. But there are others who might need it more. I starve myself sometime feeding people who need it more." I smile and put it in my pocket. I see a small group of littler children. I walk over and give it to them. They had no adults by them they looked so hungry. I walk back and everyone stares.
"What I don't need it it's only been four days science I've eaten no big deal." I say back. It only makes it worse. I sink into my clothes.
"Only four days!" Mikasa says " You know you probably should be a little concerned about yourself." She takes some out of her pocket and shoves it into my mouth. I'm practically on the ground laughing.
"Okay. Okay." I quietly snack on the bread and talk more with them. About a half hour later Eren brings up the legion subject. Shit. I thought.
"Emma gonna join the legion." He say Mikasa gives me a look. "See I'm not the only one!" He continues.
"No. Not without me." We stare." You guys are the closest thing I have to family. And you to!" She points to me." I barely know you but ill protect you to!" She took a deep breath. "We are going to stick together till the very end."
"We'll start as friends and end as friends and fellow solider. I guess." I stare at the ground. And start sobbing I couldn't handle it anymore. I sit down and sob. No one looks at me no one cares except my new found friends. They sit there and try to comfort me. Mikasa gently pats my back.
"It's gonna be okay. I promise." I look up armin offers me his hand. And I take it. He pulls me up and Eren come towards me.
"Are you gonna be ok?" I stare into his eyes. And wipe my face.
"Yes. And even if I die doing it I'm going to repay the favor of you guys saving my life." I smile and then Mikasa hugs me. Armin and Eren are speechless. I hug her with my one arm that's not busy. When she stops hugging the boys are still in awe.
"What?" She says and then walks off we follow.
