Chapter 1
The shrieking sound of people dying filled the air. Blood splashed everywhere. This was my first time out on the battle field as an official soldier in the Survey Corps. While many were frozen in fear I was fighting with all my strength to kill each and every one of the titans. Courageously I positioned myself a bit to the right and hooked the wire to a tree close to the titan's neck just barely missing the titan's grip. Then I used the gas to give me extra height. When I was high enough above the titan I dived down at full speed with my aim directly at the titan's neck. Finally I twisted myself to the left and perfectly slashed the titan right at its neck. Instantly the titan dropped dead leaving only a few of them left to finish off.
After Wall Maria within the Shiganshina District collapsed because of the Colossal Titan's appearance everyone all had to flee to the other walls within the Shiganshina District. Many kids like me lost their families to the titans and I went through training to get stronger so that I could dispose of the titans once and for all. As I fought all I could think about were strategies on how to finish the titans. While I was killing titans one by one I saw the titans were slowing down which meant I could easily maneuver to titan to titan and finish them off with the help of the 3D Maneuver Gear. Within in five minutes of my plan undergoing, I finished off all the titans that were within the area.
As I scanned the area for remaining titans I suddenly felt a hand on my shoulder. Quickly I tensed up but after I turned around to see who it was, I relaxed a bit. The hand belonged to my leading commander of my unit, Mike Zacharius. He was smiling as usual and I knew he was going to praise me for being in his squad.
"Nice job fighting, Sergeant Lantsov. Keep that up and soon you'll be where I am in no time. We'll be heading back soon so you can relax for now. Take a breather and stop being so tensed after fighting." Mike teased. Later after calling my horse I relaxed a bit more knowing we're done for today. It was already getting close to night and only had a few three hours to get back to HQ before that. Even though the titans aren't active during the night it was still a dangerous trip back. We could get ambushed and loose even more soldiers. At that thought I tensed up once again.
Later after we gathered all the dead bodies we headed back to HQ. As we were riding back I couldn't help be on high alert for anything. The moment we got close to Wall Rose I immediately sensed a titan coming towards this way. I stopped my horse and looked behind the squad. There a class 12m titan was running towards this way. Quickly I alerted the squad before using my 3D Maneuver Gear to jump onto a nearby tree. Then I carefully waited until the titan was close enough before jumping out and slicing the titan's neck. Within an instant the titan fell dead, but soon I sensed more coming.
Then when I looked over almost everyone pasted through the gate already so I jumped back on my horse and hurried through the gate. Behind me I heard the gate close tight and I sighed in relief. Afterwards I caught up with my squad and headed back to HQ. Once we got back, Mike went to file in the report of what happened to Commander Erwin and he wanted to me come and help. Since I didn't have anything better to do I followed. When we entered the room we were greeted by Commander Erwin and humanity's strongest, Levi Rivaille. Quickly I my eyes opened up and I was a bit surprise that I actually got to meet the Levi Rivaille who is as valuable as an entire brigand. As Mike was talking with Erwin I did everything in my might not to smile at Levi. Later Levi came over to me and we started talking.
"What's your name, Sergeant?" Levi questioned. Immediately I saluted and tried to keep a straight face while doing so.
"I'm Sergeant Lantsov of the Survey Corp in Mike's squad, Captain Rivaille." I answered. Even though I was trying very hard to keep a straight face there was no way I could keep myself from blushing.
"Captain Rivaille, she's one of my new members in the squad. Although she's new and this was her first kill, she practically worked as hard as you did." Mike boasted. That was when Levi pointed out that I was turning red and I immediately tried to hide it by placing my hands over my cheeks. Later Commander Erwin came over and completely acknowledged me for the first time.
"Mike if she's that good why don't you transfer her to the Special Operation Squad. But just out of curiosity just how many did she kill?" Erwin declared.
"We were attack by thirty titans after four days of wondering outside the walls. Ten of them were killed by the rest of the squad working together. After killing ten the squad started to become in disarray and that was when Sergeant Lantsov came in and killed the rest while saving the rest of her squad. She also managed to kill nine in five minutes. Plus she killed a 12m just as we were coming through the wall. Lantsov here took her risk of dying to give us time to all go through the wall. That's why I brought her here today. I want her to be moved up to the Special Operation Squad with Captain's Rivaille permission of course." Mike boasted. Soon after I started to panic as Levi only stared at Mike and Erwin. I couldn't help feel like I wasn't going to make it into the Special Operation Squad. The Special Operation Squad was handpicked to serve very dangerous missions with their skills. Anyone to everyone would like to be recognized as being the strongest within the Special Operation Squad.
"I'll take her, if you think just by hearing Mike's word that she's good enough Erwin. I trust your decision to the end." Levi announced. Now it was up to Erwin to choose where I go, and I was feeling nervous all over again.
"I think she'll be a perfect fit into the Special Operation Squad. Plus if she's really who Mike says then you'll definitely have no problem with your new missions. I'll give you the rest of the details later. For now introduce Sergeant Lantsov to the rest of the squad will you? Mike and I still have some business to talk." Erwin replied.
"Alright, Lantsov, follow me." Quickly before Levi disappeared from sight I shouted a quick thank you to Mike and Erwin then hurried after Levi. As I was walking behind Levi I couldn't help noticing that I was almost Levi's height. Then that brought me to wonder just how old is Levi. Soon Levi led me to a room where there were a couple of other soldiers there that I recognized as the Special Operation Squad.
"Everyone, this is our new member to the squad. Please make, Sergeant Lantsov feel welcomed." Levi introduced. I gave a little wave and a smile since I was a bit nervous to actually meet the Special Operation Squad. First one to greet me so kindly was a girl I remembered long ago and considered once my friend, Petra Ral. She changed a lot and so did I, but I wondered if she actual remembers me. Before Petra said anything she immediately hugged me and smiled.
"Emily, it's great to see you again! When did you graduate training school? Last time I remember seeing you was during our training days in school. You do remember me don't you?" Petra stated. I smiled since Petra was the first friend I've ever had and she always made me smile and make me feel good that I lived on while my parents died.
"Hi Petra, I missed seeing you every day. I just graduated a week ago. Today I went on the battle field for my first time and got moved here. Did you kill a lot of titans while we didn't see each other?" I greeted.
"You must've did really great in order to just graduate and be bumped up here so quick. How many titans did you just kill?"
"Eh, eh, funny you should say that… my first kill and I killed-"
"Sergeant Lantsov here killed twenty in her first fight and one just as it was charging at them while they were coming back. She killed nine of the twenty within five minutes. At least that's what Mike said about her. Personally I don't see one thing that makes her so different from all of us." Levi interrupted. I gave Levi a bit of a stern face because I wanted to tell Petra that myself, but no he had to tell her.
"Wow, is that even possible? Killing nine titans in five minutes?" said a guy I also remembered as Oluo Bozado. Sadly this guy and I didn't have quite a nice history in the past. Surprisingly as I looked around at everyone's faces I recognized every single one of them from training school. At least I wouldn't be working with complete strangers like with Mike's squad. There in the corner of the room staring out the window was one that I graduated training school with, Eren Yeager. But Mikasa Ackerman , his step sister, wasn't around him. Judging by his expression he was too busy thinking about something else that he didn't notice me. While Oluo was arguing with Petra and the others I walked up to Eren and gently placed my hand on his shoulder. Eren jerked in surprise but after he saw me he smiled.
"Eren, what are you doing here? Where's Mikasa?" I asked.
"I'm here because of what happened three days ago. That's when Mikasa and I got separated." Eren announced.
"What happened three days ago? I wasn't here. Did something happen?"
"Somehow all this was practically a blur for me. At first I thought I died inside a titan's stomach after losing my left arm. Next thing I remembered was waking up to find everyone pointing guns at Mikasa, Armin, and I. I didn't know why until they said they all saw me shift out of a titan's body and my left arm grew back. Ever since then they put me in this squad so I could be protected and watched."
"A titan shifter just like you guessed the colossal titan and armored titan were right? How this did even happen? You're father and mother was both human."
"See I can't remember anything. When I try to remember something it hurts. But I believe everything will come back to me when I look in the basement underneath my house back at Wall Maria in the Shiganshina District that my father always kept locked."
"Are you insane! Wall Maria is gone and the Shiganshina District is now filled with titans!"
"That's why this Special Operation Squad is here for. We're going to attempt to take back Wall Maria with my titan shifter." Quickly I looked back at everyone and judging by their faces they weren't kidding. Within this squad they really were going to try to take back Wall Maria. Instantly my face turned pale and I wasn't sure I felt my heart beating at all. Later that day Levi talked with Commander Erwin and got the rest of the mission details.
"Pack up everything you're going to need. Refill your gas tanks and check that your equipment is alright. We're heading out tomorrow morning. Get a good night sleep tonight, but don't sleep in or we'll leave you behind." Levi announced.
