"Again." Eren mumbles out flatly, his yellowish green eyes stared dully at the walls of his old home.
The shadowy presence turns and looks down at a young boy, he was moaning lightly as he lay against the tree trunk, tears forming at the corners of his closed eyes. The child was himself, every time he died he would return to this day and the memories of that life time would fuse with the current existence of Eren Jaeger that watched over.
The older Eren glances down at his see through hands, they was clearer than the last life.
Blinking he let his mind wonder back of the nine lives he lived.
The first time he dead he was eaten by Historia Reiss his friend and classmate, she became a titan and bite off his head; he had appear by his younger self as if he had simply stepped through a door.
Lost and confused Eren had screamed at his younger self, begging for him to listen to his voice, but everything went the same as the first time and he was once again eaten by Historia.
When he appeared again he was shocked to discover that he remembered and that his memories joined to the end to his other life. Now once again he was watching his younger self making the same mistakes this time talking softly to him when things happened.
However Eren noticed the slight changes.
Eren died during the fall of the Trost District.
Those memories joined onto the ones before, angry raged throughout his whole soul. Eren had a bad temper before that, but during that lifetime his temper was magnified greatly. These emotions made his learn something, he could pass thoughts and feelings to his fleshly self.
While he was angry when he appeared by that familiar tree, he managed to control himself this time around. Enough to get the truth out of others, something he died not doing the others times.
The more he learnt the more his heart bleed with each passing life.
During one life time he fell in love with Annie, those feeling went to the next Eren and was hurt and confused when he discovered that she was the Female Titan, something he did not know before.
Eren glances towards the blue skies, white clouds drifted above, blocking the sun's rays now and again. Movement caught his eye and he smiled when he sees Mikasa leaning over his younger form, looking at him in worry at his tears.
Eren walks towards them, then kneeing down he lightly touches his younger self's forehead, awaking him from his nightmare.
The young Eren quickly sat up and looked around, he blinks at Mikasa, big tear dropping from his dark green eyes. It was strange, his living form always had those darker green, but his had this odd yellowish green, which sometimes showed in his living form for reasons he did not know.
Eren bent his legs slightly his feet hung off the ground and almost like his rear was sitting on something he remained this way; the unseen force he kept pulling him to his living self and he floated along behind them.
As he went along over half listening to the children in front, he crossed his arms over his chest. He was not surprised to found himself in his the Survey Corps uniform, only his 3D Maneuver Gear was missing.
Eren smiles at the tightness of the harness that was wrapped around his body, that was under his uniform and boots. This always gave this the feeling of being protected now, he was sure he would be lost without it.
Eren heart sunk greatly as he noticed they was nearly his former home. The place where his mother was.
Which time he watch her died, never once looking away. He never tried to stop himself from trying to save her, he did a few times try and get her out of the house but for during the first few days of him being there, he could not do much for his younger self or rather his younger self did not listen to that nagging voice that was just there.
"The nightmare begins again." Eren told himself, closing his eyes gently.
