CHAPTER 1: ONCE AGAIN

It was just another ordinary day, or as ordinary as one's day can be in a world filled with giant man eating monsters. Or at least it would start out ordinary, but things would soon be taking an unexpected turn. The morning light streamed in through the windows waking up any of those who were unlucky enough to have it shine down on their eyes. "Is it really morning? I thought that dream would go on forever!" Eren groaned sitting up. After sitting there staring mindlessly for a minute still trying to wake up Eren finally decided to get up and dressed and head to breakfast. "Oh hey Eren I was starting to get a little worried." Armin said as Eren sat down with him and Mikasa. "Yea Eren, where have you been?" Mikasa said looking at him obviously a little concerned. That's Mikasa for you. "Yes I'm fine Mikasa…just, the dream I was having felt like it wouldn't end." Eren said suddenly becoming a little quiet. "It's like back then, the day the titans broke through wall Maria. You had a long dream that day too didn't you?" Mikasa said noticing Eren's silence.

"Yea, you're right and I can't remember what the dream was about either like before and things turned out badly that day." He replied trying to remember the dream. "Well it's probably fine guys, I mean it's not like Eren is a prophet something like that couldn't just happen like that again." Armin said with a small laugh also getting a small chuckle out of Eren and Mikasa as they all thought how funny Eren would look with a beard and priest clothes. "That may be true but I do wonder why you keep having these dreams Eren." Mikasa stated looking at Armin then Eren. "I'm sure it's nothing to worry about." Armin said giving a reassuring smile. "Yea, besides we can handle ourselves." Eren said with a nod also smiling. "I suppose your right." Mikasa said in agreement also bringing a smile to her face.

As they went on with their day things were pretty much normal nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary, at least for the time being. They went on with their normal daily tasks like any other day and before they knew it, it was evening. Eren was on his way back to his room to head to bed when he saw a few people in a group talking, he passed it off as just a few friends having a chat but it was definitely not 'just a chat'. As he passed by he thought he smelled something strange and it made it feel light headed so he walked away just assuming that it was a fluke. However when he got to his room and changed into his pajamas and went to bed he fell asleep almost immediately, or so it seemed.

Meanwhile Mikasa had already gone to bed and was asleep until around midnight she woke up to strange sounds. She wasn't entirely awake, she was in that 'void' between being awake and being asleep where you can hear but you can't move. She could hear the sound of footsteps in the hallway, they were coming closer and closer until finally they stopped at where she believed was outside her door. Wondering what was happening she tried to wake up but so far it was to no avail. After the footsteps stopped she heard what sounded like a door opening and shutting and then she heard footsteps coming closer until they stopped by her bed. Finally just after they got there she managed to open her eyes and sit up to get a look at whoever it was. Once her vison adjusted she saw standing next to her bed was Eren. "Eren? What are you doing here? You should be asleep!" Mikasa said surprised. There was no reply. As she looked closer she noticed something was off about his appearance. The best way one could describe it would be by saying that he looked like he was in Titan form but was still the size of a human which was very strange, and instantly she knew there was something wrong. "Eren, what's the matter?" She said worriedly extending her arm out to reach him, but before she could Eren grabbed her arm by the wrist. "Eren? What are you doing? Let go!" She said in protest as she tried to pull her arm away. However it turned out he was much stronger than her and she couldn't free herself.

"Where am I?" Eren thought to himself. "Am I awake or am I asleep I can't tell…what's happening right now? Am I moving?" He continued trying as hard as he could to try and feel what was around him. "I think I'm moving, and I think I'm grabbing something…shouldn't I be asleep though? What is it I'm doing right now?" He questioned straining to tell what was happening but it was no use. "Eren! Snap out of it!" Mikasa said raising her voice. She was now pinned down and couldn't move she tried calling out to Eren hoping he would come to his senses but it seemed like he was simply unreachable.

(Authors Note: Alright I'm going to go ahead and skip this, now as for why? I'm skipping it because bad stuff is happening. Sure this story is rated M but that doesn't mean I want to write this scenario, partly because I might cry because I feel bad. If you came here hoping for dirty stuff, sorry, you'll have to look elsewhere because it may be happening but I can't bring myself to write it. Thanks for understanding.)

When Eren finally awoke from his supposed slumber he found himself in a familiar place. He was in a cell under the courthouse just like when he first transformed into a Titan. Obviously he was more than a little confused, but that wasn't the only thing that bothered him about the situation. He felt like his body was on fire, he was sore all over and his head felt like a Titan had stepped on it. He looked up to see if anyone was there and he saw Erwin and Levi. "W-What's going on?" Eren said struggling to speak through his pain. He noticed that the two seemed displeased, though it seemed they weren't entirely displeased but also confused and worried. "You don't have any memory?" Erwin said looking at him sternly. "No sir, the last thing I remember doing was going to bed." Eren said wearily. "So it's just like it was before." Levi said seeming somewhat frustrated with this turn of events. Silence filled the air and everyone was completely quiet for what seemed like forever until finally someone came to get Eren. Once again putting him in handcuffs they lead Eren to the court room though it proved to be difficult as he was in so much pain.

They eventually made it to the court room and put the pole down over Eren's handcuffs to keep him restrained. He looked around as everyone seemed to be staring at him, which obviously, they were. He looked around but none of his friends were here this time which caused him to become concerned, but before he had too much time to think about it his thoughts were interrupted. "Eren Jaeger, do you know why you are here?" Said the familiar voice of Dhalis Zachary. "No sir." Eren replied hesitantly. "Is see, so you have no recollection of what you did." Zachary replied calmly. "What I…did?" Eren pondered worriedly. "Eren Jaeger according to this report it is said that last night you assumed some sort of variant of your Titan form." Zachary answered looking at Eren with a stern expression. "W-What? Variant? I don't remember anything." Replied Eren looking stunned. "Yes, according to this report the best way to describe your appearance was to say that you looked like your Titan form but you were still the same size as a human although maybe somewhat taller and larger in stature." He continued. "Alright but that doesn't seem like a reason for me to be on trial, w-what exactly did I do?" Eren said hesitating to speak, he wanted to know what happened but at the same time he felt like whatever happened was bad and he didn't want to find out but he knew he would one way or another.

"Last night when you assumed this variant Titan form you assaulted Mikasa Ackerman, but this was not just a normal physical assault. She was also sexually assaulted." Zachary stated grimly causing the crowd to murmur in shock. As soon as those words left Zachary's mouth Eren's world stopped. Everything stopped, he couldn't hear or see anything it was as if time itself had all but frozen. His heart felt as though it had been turned to dust, his soul, shattered "How could this be…there's no way…I'd never do that to Mikasa! What happened to me? Why can't I remember?! I'm so sorry Mikasa…I know you could never forgive me for this…please, just be okay." Eren thought to himself. Finally Eren snapped back to reality when he heard the sound of the court room's doors flying open. It sounded like they were about to rule Eren guilty until the doors flew open and Armin and Hanji entered the room stunning everyone. "Your honor wait we have an important announcement regarding this case." Hanji said interrupting. "What is it Hanji? Zachary asked. "Sir, early this morning we discovered something that could possibly be a detrimental factor to this case. When I was out this morning I smelled something funny and it made me feel light headed so I went to investigate. When I found the source it turned out to be a pile of crates, I went to look inside and made a most shocking discovery." Armin said making his case. "What is it that you found cadet?" Zachary said with interest.

"Inside the crate was a chemical for making explosives, while at first one would think this would have nothing to do with case, it does. This chemical was banned many years ago because the components in the chemical caused hallucinations, dizziness and light headedness as well as abnormal behavior." Hanji continued. "We believe that Eren may have been exposed to this chemical and it cause him to lose control of his body and attack Mikasa." Armin finished. "Eren, did you have any experience like what they stated last night?" Zachary asked looking at Eren. "Yes sir, actually I smelled something strange on my way back to my room and it made me light headed and dizzy like they said and I was pretty tired so I thought that I was just overworked and didn't think anything of it." Eren replied. "I see then we should reassess the case." Zachary stated. After that there was a long debate about the case but in the end Eren won the case and was set free, however Eren was to be closely monitored. The next day Eren was returning to the scouts.
