Blood… screams… tears… fear… it is at this moment that all those things are present and in large amounts. The breach of Wall Rose has embedded all those feelings and visions into the humanity. But perhaps there is a solution to this crisis, light at the end of the tunnel or a somewhat saviour in the form of Eren Yeager…

The plan is simple but at the same time is very complicated. No one understands this more than the person who created this plan. Armin Arlert. He is fully aware that this plan could go south in a blink of an eye due to all of the uncertainties involved in this plan but the most troubling of these uncertainties would be the mind-state of Eren when he is in Titan-form…

The plan is to block the breach in Wall Rose with a huge boulder located to the east of the wall. Moving the boulder would be impossible for a mere human but for a titan as big and powerful as Eren then that might not be the case. All of the strategists under the command of the leader of the Garrison, Commander Pixie, have ironed out all of the small details in the plan including how to communicate with each using flares or how each team should be stationed or what their respective objectives are. There is only one thing left to do… proceed with the plan. With the go ahead given by Commander Pixie, everyone rushes to their respective rendezvouses.

"Eren… are you sure you can do this? Should I come up with a Plan B?" Armin asked, knowing just how pressure has been placed on his best friends shoulders. This entire plan revolves around him.

"Hell yes I am Armin… I will do anything to help humanity turn the tables on the monsters!" Hearing his resolve, Armin can't help but praise the amount of willpower his friend has at his disposal. It would be perfectly normal for him to be sceptical in his titan abilities considering that he only discovered them just a few hours ago. But yet here he is… strong and confident in his abilities as if he has trained for the longest of time.

"Aright Eren… I have complete trust in you! Let's win this one for humanity!" Eren nodded and gave a thumbs up at his best friends' new found resolve. It was time humanity won against these monstrosities!

The sight of multiple green coloured flares signals the commencement of the operation. Eren and Mikasa jump of the wall and make their way to the boulder.

'This is it… humanity is at the brink of victory. No way will Eren lose! There's absolutely no way!' Armin thought to himself as he remained at the top of Wall Rose in order to keep a vigilant eye out for any titans that may be close to boulder. He can make out the figures of the members of the Garrison that have been assigned to guard Eren, Mikasa and Eren himself weaving through the air and towards the boulder. The moment of truth has finally arrived… this is truly it!

'Go Eren… Show them what the members of squad 104 can do!' Armin's determination in his friend's abilities made him feel happy and extremely grateful that both Eren and Mikasa were part of his life, an extremely large part at that.

As if on cue, a bright yellow and gold coloured flash of light struck down to close to the boulder causing a small explosion to occur. Armin quickly scanned the area for any titans that were close by that may be attracted to the light but he was glad to find out there were none. All of the titans inside Trost were occupied by other trainees and members of the Garrison that were hanging on the wall to act as bait. Armin couldn't help but feel proud that his plan was coming along perfectly… everyone was playing their roles perfectly and if all else went well, Armin will no doubt feel that his grandfather is smiling down at him from wherever he is.

Armin then returned his gaze back to the boulder and instantly felt his stomach turn inside out at the sight. Eren had transformed, which was a relief, but he was just standing there… he didn't even look at the boulder. 'What is going on with you Eren?' Armin thought as he continued to stare at his titan-shifting best friend. With the help of a telescope given to him by the Commander himself, Armin could see that Mikasa and the members of the Garrison trying to get through to Eren but it was clear that that it wasn't working. Armin could see that Mikasa was on Eren's nose trying to get him to cooperate but it was clear that this was bearing no fruit. The next moment, Eren tilted his head upwards towards the heavens and opened his mouth. Mikasa quickly jumped off his nose and on to the nearest roof to avoid getting eaten by her brother accidentally.

The next thing that happened sent shivers down Armin's spine. Eren released a loud scream or rather a loud War Cry and then he ran straight for the titans that were being distracted at the wall. This was not part of the plan and Armin could feel knots upon knots in his stomach… Eren's guards and Mikasa were trying to keep up with him, urging him to turn around and complete the mission and again to no avail.

Armin fell to his knees as the failure of the mission sunk in. 'I knew Eren's power was uncontrollable… he has lost control… all those people are going to die… their blood is going to be on my hands… the failure of this mission will be reflected on me… this is MY plan… I should have made a plan B… Eren will surely be executed… Mikasa will also be executed if she tried to fight for Eren… so many deaths… I'm nothing more than a failure…' These thoughts continued to run rampant in Armin's mind as he just stared at the boulder. There was no need trying to reach Eren as he was too far and if Mikasa couldn't get through to him then no one could. Armin's body began to shack uncontrollably due to weight of all the thoughts of failure and self-doubt but it was at the moment when the back of his head meet the concrete did something in Armin's mind snap… he was having a vision of… his parents.

"Armin… you're going to be strong when you're older…" Armin's mother said with a soft, almost angelic voice.

"Son… remember not to forget us… we love you and we will defiantly meet again someday. Promise us that you will make us proud…" Armin's father said sternly but with a lot of love.

"BECOME THE EIPTOME OF GREATNESS!" They said in unison.

Armin eye's bolted open hand he quickly got back to his feet, with a mild sense of vertigo present. He held his head with his hand as he started to feel something for himself that he never felt before. Determination!

Armin scanned the area and noticed that it had only been a minute since Eren went on a rampage with the guards and Mikasa close behind but for some reason that wasn't a priority to Armin… scanning the area again, he found the priority… the boulder. Without wasting anytime at all, Armin leaped of the wall and down towards the ground. Soon the sound of grappling hocks and the whistling of gas was the only thing Armin could hear… with only the massive rock on his mind, Armin failed to spot Annie, Jean, Connie and other members of the Garrison making their way to the place where Armin just was. The members of squad 104 however did not miss the sight of Armin moving at speeds that surpassed Mikasa heading towards the boulder and the titans that were close to it.

"ARMIN WAIT!" Jean and Connie said in unison but to no avail as Armin sped past them without a glance. Annie however made a complete 180 degree turn and flew towards Armin. This resulted in the other members of the group to turn around as well much to their own dissatisfaction.

Armin was closing in on the boulder quickly and with both of is wires connected to two towers parallel to each other, he flew way up high in the air with his back arched making a slow backflip. To the group not far behind him it was a sight of beauty, even amongst all the blood that was currently being shed; even amongst all the titans in the vicinity and even amongst the clear failure of the mission but for one Annie Leonhardt, it was a sight of sheer confusion.

'Why is he rushing into his death so eagerly? Why is he headed to the boulder and not Eren? When did his skills with the 3D Gear improve so greatly? Isn't he meant to be a weakling?' These thought were all that came to the mind Annie simply because she figured that she knew what kind of person Armin was but the sight before here was speaking a completely different story all together… but what followed left her dumbfounded. She saw Armin gaze at the boulder and the surrounding titans with such determination and focus it would seem as though the person in her sights was not Armin Arlert. To say that the next few seconds of her life were in slow motion would actually be an understatement. It would be safe to say that the world came to a standstill. But she wasn't alone in this feeling as both Jean and Connie were feeling it.

Armin lifted his left index finger to his mouth and bit down on it…

Annie, Jean, Connie and the three other members of the Garrison were temporarily blinded by the light caused by Armin. When they miraculously found their footing on a nearby rooftop, the sight that they saw left them speechless. Standing before them, with the same height as Eren; crisp blue eyes; blond hair that reached the base of the spine with a body that most men envy and a face that had no flaw. This was the most human looking titan ever seen.

Silence was brought to the situation…

"Armin is…" Connie couldn't even bring himself to finish his sentence but thanks to Annie he didn't have to, even if she sounded more shocked than he was…

"A-a… Titan!"

So… what do you think? I was thinking of making this a one chapter thing but I can continue if people want me to… BTW I'm a HUGE Armin Fan!
