Buffet sprinted forward and plunged the axe into the 3 meter titan's nape. He quickly took the axe out and went to plunge it into the nape again, but the original wound had already healed. Buffet could not kill the titan. Sasha quickly grabbed the child and lead them out of the building.
"Please forgive us…" is was Buffet said to the dying lady. Buffet quickly caught up with Sasha and the child. They walked in silence until they saw the 3 meter following them. Sasha drew an arrow and Buffet prepared himself.
"RUN!" Sasha screamed to the child. The child looked confused and was not set on running away.
"GO. NOW." The child quickly turned around and ran in the opposite direction. Knowing the child would find the group from the village. Sasha prepared an arrow and fired it, completely missing the first 2 arrows. Sasha took a deep breath and nailed the next shot into the left eye. The titan approached the duo. Buffet went to slash the right eye, but he felt a pain in his wrist and this caused his chop to drop and he missed the titan grabbed Buffet and was about to bite into his neck. Sasha then acted quickly and took her remaining arrow and stabbed the titan's eye out. The titan then turned its attention to Sasha and bear hugged her, squeezing her as hard as possible.
Sasha screamed out as cracking sounds were heard from her body and blood came out of her mouth. Since the titan was blinded, the titan could not bite sasha in an area to kill her instantly. The titan started by putting her right leg in its mouth and biting it off. Sasha screamed out again. She tried to crawl away but the titan made a lucky guess and grabbed her again. The titan quickly bit into her back. Buffet quickly slashed the titan's nape. He now saw he needed to make a clean cut instead of plunging it in. Buffet killed the Titan.
Buffet quickly dashed to Sasha's side.
"SASHA! STAY WITH ME."
Sasha gave Buffet's one of her signature goofy similes before all the life drained from her face. Sasha was dead. Buffet screamed sounds he did not even know could come out of his mouth. Buffet took his hand to her face and closed her half open eyes. Buffet then put her body on the bed of one of the houses, and covered her face with her survey corps cape. Buffet then left the village, not knowing how to explain this to his friends, and how he would manage without his friend and...the one he loved.
-(skipping Bert and Reiner reveal, no changes there)-
Mikasa, Armin, Jean, Krista...wait, no, now it was Historia, Connie and Buffet were all sitting in a room, not knowing why they were there.
"Anyone know why the hell we are here?" Jean broke the silence.
"Oh come on, isn't it obvious?" was Connie's response.
"Well it fucking isn't if I'm asking why we are here." Jean replied, more annoyed
"Ugh, Armin explain." was Connie next move.
"Um...well...I-I don't know." Armin replied.
"I-I hope were not in trouble." Historia chimed in.
"Wait…" Connie saw something off.
"What is it?" Mikasa said, finding Connie's response rather serious.
"Where is Sasha? I haven't seen her in a little bit." Buffet tensed up and cringed. In the heat of battle and the shock that Reiner and Bertholdt were humanity's top 2 known enemies, he didn't get the chance to tell them that Sasha died. Armin of course noticed Buffet tensing up, smart bastard.
"Buffet...are you okay?" was Armin's first reaction.
"I'm fine." "Please dismiss it Armin."
"Do you know where Sasha is?" "Armin fucking drop it."
"No, I don't."
"Are you sure? You look rather tens-"
"DAMNIT ARMIN!" Buffet slammed his fist against the table they were sitting at, causing the group flinch. His eyes started to water. Buffet looked up and looked into Armin's eyes.
"Sasha…" Buffet could not keep eye contact with Armin anymore, he dropped his head. "Sasha… was killed in battle." The group all had different reactions. Mikasa dropped her head and looked at the ground. Armin kept looking at Buffet with watery eyes. Jean gritted his teeth and clenched his fist. Connie and Historia let the tears fall down.
"She died a noble death in battle...she sacrificed her life for me and a young child. My wrist is why I was put in danger and she had to sacrifice herself for me...I'm the reason she is gone." Buffet didn't care anymore, he started to let some tears fall down his face. He then felt a hand fell on top of his. He looked up to see Mikasa looking straight into his eyes.
"Stay strong...that's what she would have wanted, for all of us." Mikasa said addressing the whole group. They all gave nodded in response. Then they heard the door open. In the door stood Captain Levi.
"Mikasa Ackerman, Armin Arlert, Jean Kirstein, Krista Lenz, Connie Springer and Buffet should all be here, is everyone present?" said Levi
Every stood and saluted. "Yes Sir."
"Good, you all are now members of the new Special Operations Squad." Levi put a lot of emphasis on the word new. "Follow me." The ride to the location felt short because the new members of the squad had a nice chat, but still could not keep a good mood because of their friend's recent death. They arrived at a house in the wilderness. The were all let inside. Eren walked out of a room from upstairs and his face lit up when he saw who was here.
"These are the new members Captain?" said Eren, trying to hide his joy.
Levi gave an annoyed grunt "I know you are all friends, don't try to hide it. Catch up or something, I'll give you orders later."
"Yes Captain!" everyone saluted as Levi walked into the room that Eren just exited.
"Brats." Levi muttered as he went up into the room.
They all waited a couple of seconds, then Eren led them all into the dining room. Eren gave everyone a hug besides Jean, who he just gave a simple nod. They all sat down at the table.
"I'm so happy you guys all are in the new squad! I can't wait to get started!" was the first thing Eren said. They all gave a slight smile, still wondering who would break the news about Sasha's death.
"So guys, what's new" was the next thing he said, everyone tensed up.
"Well let's just get this over with." Is what Jean said in a grim response.
"Let's get what over with, is something wro-"
"Sasha is dead." said Buffet suddenly, sounding just like Jean did when he broke the news about Marco's death to Eren.
"What...no…" Eren was shocked.
"She died sacrificing herself for me and a child, she's a hero." was Buffet's next statement. Everyone had a moment of silence, Levi then entered.
"Alright Brats, time for some ground rules. Eren, go." Levi tilted his head towards the upstairs door that Eren exited when the new squad first got there.
"Y-Yes Captain" Eren quickly walked back upstairs and into the room Levi exited.
"Okay now, do you see that room that Eren entered. In there is the only surviving member of my last squad besides myself and Eren. She is seriously injured and is currently immobile. She is so weak right now that she can barely lift her arms. Her name is Petra. Every half hour someone must go into her room and check if she needs anything, we will establish a rotation later. Got it?"
"Yes Captain"
"Next, I expect this house to be spotless by dinnertime, which is at 6:30 pm, you may all start once you are dismissed, Understood?"
"Yes Captain"
"Lastly, if you go upstairs, you find your names on various doors, these are your rooms. I expect your rooms to also be spotless by 6:30, Okay?"
"Yes Captain"
"Dismissed."
