Author's Notes

I blame this on Attack on Titan. I was content to finish writing the backbone of World's Apart while watching few animes. Then Attack of Titan comes along and gives me several plot bunnies running in my head. I couldn't even think about writing any other story as long as the bunnies are running in my head. So I decided to give it an outlet. I don't know how long it will take or will I be able to complete this story along with the remaining stories of mine. But please bear with me.

I'm aslo looking for a Beta for World's Apart. If anyone is interested please PM me.

and finally here's the first chapter of Humanity's Saviour. This is just a small chapter to get it out of my mind. Please read and Review.

"You really are the strongest hero huh," A red cloaked man said to a hulking figure who stood in front of him. "The Strongest hero of Greece, a title well deserved." He said before fading into specks of light.

Counter Guardian Emiya opened his eyes expecting to find himself in front of Alaya, the collective consciousness of humanity. So, he was very surprised to find himself staring at several naked giants running from a hole in the wall into a city.

"What the hell," Emiya asked confused. He then followed the first step in the guidelines on what to do when you find yourself in an unexpected situation.

"CURSE YOU ZELRETCH" he shouted as loud as he could and few of the titans and humans even paused for a few seconds.

Emiya activated his circuits and performed structural analysis on himself. He was surprised to find himself not in his Servant container but as a Counter Guardian. He could feel the Counter Force strengthening his body and magecraft.

He gave a gasp as a giant hand grabbed his body while he was analysing himself. He opened his eyes to stare into a grinning maw of one of the Giants.

"Hey there big guy, could you please put me down." He said quietly to the giant. Who ignored him and gobbled him up. After swallowing Emiya he continued to move but suddenly stopped as his stomach along with the lower torso exploded.

Counter Guardian Emiya stepped out from the body of the Titan.

"You shouldn't have done that, now you've upset your tummy." He said sarcastically to the titan. Emiya watched transfixed as the Titan managed to regenerate even after having his entire lower portion being blown off. In a couple of minutes, the Titan stood again after regenerating from the damage. He gave a roar and charged at Emiya. As the Titan bared his fist down on him Emiya rose his fist to block the attack.

Titans are monstrously powerful creatures, a single Titan is said to possess the strength of a hundred men, physically no human could ever hope to match a titan in terms of strength, speed or endurance.

Thus, even with his limited intelligence, the Titan also was surprised when his fist didn't crush the red cloaked man, but he was pushed back a bit.

Despite the Titan being extremely powerful, in terms of a Servant scale, the Titan would have only C-rank strength and his lack of intelligence would hamper even that. With reinforcement Emiya too had a C-rank strength. If he had a little more intelligence, perhaps the Titan would retreat or regroup. However, he decided to solve this problem like every other problem, by crushing it.

The Titan again barreled towards him, with a sigh Emiya decided to finish the giant off. As the Titan neared him Emiya jumped, cracking the ground underneath him with the pressure. As he rose above the Titan he summoned his trusty black bow and drew back it's string.

Hrunting

A sword was notched on the arrow. The Titan looked up and saw his quarry just as he had finished materialising Hrunting. The Titan jumped his jaws opened wide to swallow the man as he fell.

Emiya, however, had other plans. "Fly true Hrunting." He said before releasing it. In an instant, the entire Titan was reduced to bits as the sword obliterated him as it passed through. Emiya landed on his feet. His red cloak automatically repairing itself back to pristine condition.

Emiya could feel the Counter Force slowly replenishing his reserves. He then proceeded to head into the city to try and save as many lives as possible from the Titan. Though he had abandoned his childish dream of saving everyone. A few millennia under the contract of Alaya tends to do that to people. He still retained the ideal of being a Hero. And for the first time he had control over his own actions. He decided to save as many people as possible.


After destroying dozens more of the giants Emiya was tired. The Giants would not die unless they were completely obliterated. Even with the Counter Force sustaining him he could not keep spawning Hrunting and Caladbolg. As Emiya rested behind a building he saw a blonde man running in front of him. He looked like a soldier so Emiya decided to ask about the creatures from him.

He caught up with the soldier, who was still running in a minute. The soldier looked back at him in shock.

"What are you doing here? The civilians are evacuating behind Wall Rose. You should go too before the Titans get you." He said.

'So these creatures are called Titans' he thought to himself 'Now to find out how to fight them.' With that, he pulled the blond soldier in an alley.

"What the hell are yoummf-" he was interrupted by Emiya who clasped his mouth shut with his palm. He watched with wide eyes as a Titan passed through right where they were.

Once the Titan had passed away Emiya slowly let go of the man.

"Thank you," he mumbled before he exclaimed, "Oh no, Eren and Mikasa." He quickly activated his 3D manoeuvre gear and took to the roof. Shirou was surprised by this. He too quickly jumped on the roof. Easily keeping up with the man. The soldier looked at him in shock.

"What are you?" he asked in awe and fear.

"Nevermind that, how do you kill these Titans. They seem to regenerate from anything, even having their heads blown off." Emiya asked him.

Hesitating for just a minute he replied, "They have only one weak spot on the nape of their necks. Anywhere else they simply regenerate," He said, "That's why we use these blades as they are made to slice them." He said drawing two blades out of his gear.

As soon as Shirou looked at those blades he understood. He understood everything. From the creation of those blades to the countless drills done simulating taking down the titans, to the fear, not of the blades, but of their wielder when faced with a Titan. But it was enough for Emiya to understand the Titans as well.

"Eren no, get out of there." He was cut out off his musings by the shout of his blond companion. He looked in the direction of his companions gaze and saw a sight that made the remains of Emiya Shirou struggle from the depths of his psyche. Asking him to save them.


Mikasa watched, petrified in horror as her mother was raised from the rubble by the smiling Titan. She couldn't move her body. Her entire body had frozen in fear as she gazed into the smiling face of the Titan who had raised her mother and placed her in its mouth.

"NOOOO" she could here Eren scream from beside her and that shook her out of her fear-induced petrification. She remembered the promise she made to her mother to always protect Eren and tried to drag him away from there. As she turned to him she felt more that saw a red blur move past her.

She looked towards the Titan, where the blur had gone to watch in horror as blood splashed everywhere, on the walls, on the street and some even fell on her face. But it was not her mother's blood. Somehow a silver-haired man had pulled her out of the Titans jaws just before it had closed on her.

He jumped down and landed beside them. She saw that one of his arms were gone and blood was flowing from his stump.

"What the hell man, you could have died there." She saw Hannes land beside the man withdrawing his 3D manoeuvre gear.

"Take them and leave," he said standing up, handing her mother and grabbing Eren and giving him to Hannes. He then walked back to face the Titan, who now had stepped over the ruins of their house.

"What are you doing? You'll die you, idiot." Hannes said trying to stop the silver haired man. However, burdened by both their mother and Eren there wasn't much he could do.

Mikasa watched wide-eyed as the man approached the Titan, instead of running away. She tried to call him, stop him, do anything so that he would not throw away his life in vain. But something stopped her. Somewhere, in the deep recesses of her mind, she could feel that he would not die.

The Smiling Titans smile widened as Emiya grew closer and when he was close enough to grab he pounced in a flash. But despite his speed, Emiya was faster. He jumped over the Titan and landed on his head. He raised his remaining hand as if he was clutching something and spoke two words that resounded with power to Mikasa.

Mikasa watched wide-eyed in awe as a red spear materialised in Emiya's hand. Even from where she was standing, she could feel the malice emitting from the lance. And at that moment, Mikasa realised, that the Titan was going to die.

Gae Bolg

Emiya dashed to the back of the Titans head and in a single motion sliced off the nape of its neck the lance cut through the skin of the Titan as if it was not even there.

The swords possessed by the soldiers were very well crafted and were very sharp. But despite all of that, at best they could compare at best to an E-ranked Noble Phantasm. Gae Bolg was a B ranked Noble Phantasm and a cursed one, cursed to inflict wounds and certainly pierce the heart if thrown. The Titans skin might not have even existed for all the resistance it gave.

"How?" Hannes asked in shock, as he and the others watched this strange man- no warrior take down a Titan easily.

"Doesn't matter?" he said softly. He approached Mikasa and knelt down, facing away from her. "Hop on," he said.

She slowly got onto his back and wrapped her feet around him. A slight blush adorning her face as she could feel his muscles under her feet.

"What are you doing?" Hannes asked still in shock.

"We have to get them to safety. That is our first priority. I'll explain later." He said sternly. His tone caused Hannes to snap out of his shock and he gave a nod before taking to the rooftops.

"Let's go then, shall we?" he asked her. Mikasa gave a small nod before clutching him tightly as he jumped onto the rooftops.

"Oh, and hang tightly." He said causing Mikasa to grumble.
