Chapter 1: The Right Call

Captain Levi's squad without himself was getting chased by The Female Titan. The earth was trembling under her footstep; she was running as an animal that is locked on its prey, without hesitation, without mercy.

"So it's really her! She is coming!" yelled Eld. "She is closing in fast!" The squad was using their 3D Manoeuvre Gear to move forward, from one tree to another. Their brains were working so fast, with the effect of the adrenalin, in order to find a way out from this situation. But every planning they do in their mind had only one mutual result, if they wanted to live, they had to stand and fight.

Meanwhile, Eren checked his back to understand how close the titan was and then he witnessed it, he saw the look in her eyes, the look which he couldn't able to understand from the beginning of this expedition. It was clear now, she wasn't going to give up until she had him. She was going to kill anyone who stands between her and himself.

The fear of death spreaded out through Eren's body, that human weakness was surrounding him. His hands started to shake and his heart betrayed him by pumping so loud. Why was he afraid? For being against a monster? Do people fear monsters? For a second, every question echoing in his mind stopped, silence conquered all. And that familiar voice was heard again.

"Are you a human Eren? "

He knew the answer quite well. His eyes grew and he couldn't resist smiling. The fear surrounded his body scattered in to the wind. "I'll kill them all. I'll wipe every one of them...off the face of this earth"

Eren's hands grasped his gear tightly; he turned to his squad and spoke without hesitation.

"I've had enough! This time I am going to do it! I will fight her! "

The squad's second leader, Eld responded back quickly as he already knew Eren was going to say this. "No, you won't. The three of us will deal with her." With a protective instinct Petra backed him up. "You go on ahead to our commander's place as fast as you can, Eren!" Petra was more panicked now than she saw the female titan chasing them in the first place. The option of Eren fighting in his Titan form was outrageous to her. He was a valuable asset to humankind. No matter what happens they had to keep him alive.

"I'm going to fight too!" Eren said furiously.

Eld understood there was no point in forcing Eren to do something. In order to make him not turn into his titan form, he could only try to talk some sense into him. "Using your power is too risky! It's best if you don't!" But this approach wasn't favoured by every member of the squad.

"What's that, you little bastard! You dare doubt our ability?!"

"Is it true what he said, Eren? You really... "

"...don't believe in us?"

"Enough!" Eren shouted. "Shut up you all! This isn't about trusting or believing in your abilities and mine. This is about risking all. No matter how many titans you slayed, are you able to grow your limps back?!" asked this question especially looking towards Oluo. While they were shocked by the things he said, Eren tried to calm down. He needed to be calm to speak logically. And in order to persuade them, he had to speak logical. He cleared his throat and started talking with all he got.

"As we understood from the signal flares, Commander Edwin ordered a retreat. This means the plan has failed and he is out of his trump card. Yet still the Female Titan remains unharmed, killing lots of troops. From the beginning of this expedition she is after me and I don't think she'll stop until she faces me. So please, I'm begging you, believe in me and let me do this!"

Eren turned his gear around swiftly. Now only thing he could see was her dreadful eyes. "For every human you killed, I'll tear you apart." All the muscles in his body strained, his heart got surrounded by the darkness he was fighting against.

"I'll kill you!"
