Chapter 1:
I was there the day that monster appeared. I was sitting in my house, playing dolls with my little five year old sister. It was supposed to be a big day for me. I was getting engaged to my neighbor Erik. I didn't love him, but his parents were distant relatives of a group of wealthy people that lived in the Wall Sina. He was next in line to inherit his families big trading company and was said to become the second wealthiest man next to the king even though he was just eighteen. That was reason enough for my parents to offer their sixteen year old daughter to him. That afternoon, the Welton family came over to examine their soon to be daughter-in-law. The house was at its cleanest: floor was broomed, table polished, and rooms dust free. I stood in the living-room wearing my prettiest pink dress. It marked all my good points, from my curved waist to to my well-sized bust. I held my long black hair in many different braids to form some sort of decor on my head, I never really understood the meaning of dressing up, but it seemed to matter. He looked me up and down, walking around my body, sizing me up. I wasn't nervous, I didn't care if he chose me or not. Finally he stopped in front my face and grinned. It was an ugly smile, just like the rest of his face.
Slowly he turned to my parents and nodded. Their faces seemed to have started to glow because there was a strange shine to their eyes as they were handed the money. I knew what just happened, my parents had sold me off to this rich family, but I didn't care. My life had always been boring, nothing new ever happened. I was said to have been born beautiful, therefore I was never allowed to do anything fun that could cause injuries. My mother always said that one day my beauty would save them from a life of poverty, that I would lead them to a new life. So I guess they had been planning this for a while.
I was to say good-bye to my family before I left that same day since the wedding was to be held inside the Wall Rose before moving to the next wall. I held my sister for the last time and told her to be good, that I would come to visit her and bring new toys for her. Though I tried to say good-bye to my parents I wonder if they even listened. Their eyes were too preoccupied at staring at the bag of money to even glance at their departing daughter. So I simply gave them a small bow and thanked them for taking care of me and raising me, and as I turned to enter the carriage were my new soon to be husband was awaiting, a scream stopped me. Then a sudden rock falling from the sky made me fall and tumble to the ground. It had landed just a few feet away from me. The horses went wild and turned, dragging my new family away with them. Terror rose up in me, a feeling I never had before bubbled up inside of me and I felt like crying. I turned to run to my parents, my mind in bewilderment from the sudden commotion of rocks falling, people running and crying. I turned to see a bloody mess instead of my family. In their place stood a giant rock that once belonged to our great sacred wall. I scrambled to my feet, trying desperately to remove the rock from their crushed body. Then I heard my little sister cry out for me. She was under the rock, but only her left foot got caught.
"Sis! Sis, help me, it hurts. It hurts a lot!"
Her tears were mixed in with blood that had splattered from the impact. I tried and tried to remove the rock, but it was to heavy. At times I turn around to ask for help, but every time I was shoved aside, ignored as everyone else only cared about saving their own skins. So this is humanities true self, I thought as I was thrown to the ground by yet another person. No one stopped to allow me to stand up, no they preferred to step on me, walk over me as if I didn't have a little sister bleeding to death under a rock.
"Sis!" She tried to move, but it just caused her to wince in pain.
"Don't move! I'm coming for you Jane!" Crawling I was able to make it to her and this time I attempted to pull her from underneath instead of pushing the rock. It wasn't working, she just scream in pain. Then the Earth begin to shake and I thought, "Are rocks falling again?" That wasn't the case. Five blocks away stood a Titan three times taller than any house I'd seen. I didn't know to whether think it was a girl or a boy, but it didn't matter, certainly not to the person it was stuffing up into it's mouth.
I panicked, I froze, and for a second I actually thought of leaving my sister behind and saving myself. As the man screamed and squirmed inside the Titan's fist I thought that it be fine, that no one would blame me, no one would need to know. I shook my head, I would know, I would blame myself, and I couldn't do that to her. I'm not that cold-hearted. So started pulling again, never taking my eyes away from the towering form in front of me. Once It stopped chewing up the man it turned, and looked at me. It's goofy smile send chills through my spine, and I knew I only had a few seconds left before I be eaten.
I held onto Jane's body and told her, "This is going to hurt, but please bare with me. It'll be all over soon."
She grabbed hold of me, and I pulled. I pulled with all my strength, she screamed in pain, and finally her leg came off. In a hurry I wrapped her leg up with a piece of my pink dress to stop the bleeding. I pulled her up onto my shoulders and carried her away as fast as my feet could. Her body had gone limp, she fainted a few seconds after her leg had been ripped of. The Titan followed me, but got side tracked at the people underneath him, which he took his time to devourer as I ran.
When I first reached the harbor I saw the guard squad ushering people into boats. I screamed for a doctor, for someone to help Jane, no one moved. I ran to the front of the line, ignoring the screams and shouts of angry citizens. Before I could reach a guard someone punched me in the face, causing me to crumple to the ground. As I fell I wrapped my arms around my sister, trying to shield her from getting hurt.
"Hey, don't you dare try and cut in front! Just cause you got a pretty face doesn't mean we'll give you special treatment!"
A guard must of heard the man's screaming because soon there was one standing next to me offering me a hand up. I took it and grabbed hold of his collar with my free hand and begged. "Please, please safe my sister, take her to one of the boats! I'll do anything, but don't let her die!" I was crying, something I rarely did.
The guard placed his hand on my forehead and nodded, a serious look on his face. He took my sister and placed her in one of the first boats to leave, and nodded to one of the men aboard to take care of her. "You'll have to wait with the rest, but your sister will make it into the next wall."
I sighed in relief and placed my palm on my chest to feel my heart beats soften. "Thank you."
I walked towards the line and stood their. "Hey kid what's your name."
I turned to look at the guard once again. "Sina."
