Chapter 2: Rude Wake Up Call and Fall of Wall Maria


"Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, FUCK!"

Cursing Kagome picked up her pace, running through the huge forest.

'Why do I always land myself into the craziest shit!'

She'd woken up the next morning abruptly when her senses picked up something weird. She'd gotten up, grabbing her sword from its sheath and had moved cautiously towards the door. Then she saw it out of the corner of her eye.

A huge freaking face with pale black eyes staring at her.

She'd screamed more so in shock than fear.

Of course that came when she saw it smile revealing huge teeth. It's eyes gleaming with dare she say a hunger to them. Then it pulled back only for a large hand to break through the glass window and wall with the intent to grab her.

That warrior instinct within had come alive as she dodged and pooling a bit of power into her weapon swung down on the hand. A garbled cry left its mouth as it snatched back its hand and she watched as it ate up his hands slowly purifying it till there was nothing.

Naturally the first thought the seventeen year old miko had was, 'Fuck this!'

Grabbing her sheath and her other weapons, she left out of the ruined cottage. Stuffing her feet into her shoes that were thankfully only slightly damp inside. Her kimono was still wet, but the obi was dry. Tying it around her waist she tucked her sheath into her, but kept herself armed. Her quiver strapped over her shoulder she attached her collapsible bow to it.

When she heard loud thumping through the trees and saw two humanoid giants even bigger than the last one, she swore many profanities. She'd taken care of both by slashing at their swiping hands and ankles, but as she'd spread out her senses, the cries from the three giants had drawn in more all coming towards her. As the thumping grew louder, she'd taken off.

Which led to her current position.

"Crap," Kagome stabbed her arm upwards as she dropped to the ground. Her blade slid across the belly of one of the smaller ones that had caught up to her. It had launched itself through the air at her when she'd looked back.

She didn't even bother to watch it turn to ash like the rest, just ran like hell.

Kagome hadn't heard anymore following her, but wasn't about to stop till she got out of this forest.

It wasn't till she saw light ahead of her grower brighter and heard the bustling of people than she felt a little hope, but as she burst forth into the light of day...into straight utter fucking chaos her hopes dropped down to hell.

Part of her had hope that whatever these creatures were that the people of this land knew how to deal with them.

Oh there were people alright, except they were running in mass hysteria down a dirt road. In the distance she saw a huge wall and large hole with more of those giants pouring through. Most though appeared to move much slower than the ones that she'd encountered in the forest.

Seeing a little boy fall off the dirt road to the side and crying, motherly instincts kicked in as she ran towards him before he was trampled by the crowd. She'd scooped him up just a wagon rode by fast.

"Are you okay," she asked in English since she heard a few people shouting in that language.

He nodded his head, tears prickling at the corners of his eyes. He looked no older the six or seven, but he was light.

"Where are your parents sweetie?" Kagome asked making sure to keep a look out for any giants headed their way.

He shook his head, pointing towards the giants. "T-they ate daddy, mama grabbed me and took me away. Katie said the Titans broke through the Shiganshina District and through Wall Maria. W-we need to get to Wall Rose, mama kept yelling but my hand slipped from hers in the crowd and I saw one snatch mama up into the air a-and she kept screaming to run to Wall Rose over and over, so I ran," he explained stuttering, half yelling, and sniffling.

Her heart broke for the horror the boy had witnessed.

"Okay, well I'm Kagome. It's going to be alright, your mama wanted you to get to Wall Rose, then I'll get you there okay," at his shaky nod she set him down. With some careful maneuvering on her part the quiver and bow now hung in front of her body as she crouched down for the little boy to get on her back. With death an imminent possibility the boy didn't even hesitate jumping on the back of a stranger, his legs wrapping around her waist and his arms around her neck.

Thankfully his grip wasn't enough to choke the life out of her like Souta used to do when she carried him on her back as a kid.

She didn't even bother with joining the people on the road and ran next to it. Whenever there was panic people always got trampled and she had no plans of that being her or the little boy's fate today.

'Thank kami for Inuyasha's slave driving and her constant upkeep of her fitness after the well closed.'

Aside from getting better grades in school to graduate early and helping around the shrine all she'd done was train her body and work on her weapons' skills. A part of her always hoping the well would reopen and she could go back to adventuring in the past. Never again wanting to be a burden for those she cared for most.

The land passed by in a blur off towns hastily abandoned, rolling hills and plains as the road led into another town but she kept moving on towards the towering wall she saw ahead in the distance, screams and shouts of people—the damn ground shaking from the giants behind them, she ignored it all. She couldn't save all of these people, but this little boy she could.

The only thing that gave her pause, were when men and women in matching uniforms flew overhead, whipping through the air with wires and puffs of air. They moved with such grace swinging from rooftop to rooftop

The boy on her back let out a shout, "It's the Survey Corps, see the Wings of Freedom. They'll kill all those nasty titans." She saw the blue and silver wigs that he called the Wings of Freedom. And sure enough a little titan that had a person arm hanging from its mouth and moving incredibly fast, but these people were faster and they took it down with aerial finesse and ease slashing across the back of its neck.

It fell in a giant heap, steam escaped from its corpse as it turned to ash much more slowly than when she'd used her powers. She supposed that was what happened to these "Titans" as the boy called them when they died.

Another appeared, but it wasn't attacking the other people running—No its focus was directly on her. It smiled just like the one from the cottage before moving towards her, but it was cut down quickly by a short man with black hair who looked peeved when he saw blood on his blade.

He paused on the roof to clean if off surprising her, till she realized she didn't have time to observe the crazy antics of the guy.

It seemed like forever she ran before she arrived near the wall and had to wait patiently as the already large crowd, more than likely the people here were the ones who lived closest. In the distance she saw a river with boats full of people riding into another part of the wall.

At least for the moment she could catch her breath, but she stayed alert just in case.

Hours later the gates to Wall Rose closed with her on the safe side.

Days passed by with the injured being treated and others trying to find their families, the military trying to get account of everyone that had come through the gates. To both her and the boy; whose name she'd finally learned was Levi which he'd proudly proclaimed was the same some famous Survey Corps guy named Lance Corporal Levi Ackerman, surprise his aunt on his mother's side had survived. It had been a tear-filled reunion and profuse thank yous' from the woman who was simply happy that someone from her family other than she had survived.

Returning to the refugee camp, Levi waved her over and she went to join them.

Levi's aunt told her she would sleep with them since it wasn't safe for an Oriental woman to be left alone in a place like this.

Kagome's nose wrinkled at the word that was considered offensive to her people.

However if her offense lessened when she learned that all of her people were thought extinct and any that might've been left were sold on the black market to nobles within Wall Sheena.

Thankfully with her quick thinking on how she knew so little of the land and people told them she'd lived deep in a forest her whole life and her parents died when she was young from an unknown illness. The woman hugged her and helped to teach her everything she knew.

As the weeks flew by eventually going to work in the fields to supply more food for the many refugees, she learned more about the strange world the well had sent her to.

The people here were the last of humankind, the first king of the walls, Karl Fritz built three walls that stood fifty meters talls to keep the Titans out since there had never been one that big. And for a whole century they'd lived in peace till a titan that the people called the "Colossal Titan" who stood over fifty meters tall kicked in the gate of Shiganshina District and another titan called the "Armored Titan" tore through the inner gate. There were three branches of the military: the Military police who guarded the innermost wall and the royal family and also dealt with martial crimes, the Garrison Corp who maintained watch and care over the walls along with serving in the towns of all the districts, then finally there was the Survey Corps who traveled outside of the walls to fight the titans and were the strongest of the three branched, but because of their dangerous work had the highest mortality rate and least amount of soldiers willing to join.

It was kind of sad how so many weren't willing to fight for their freedom, instead content to live inside large walls like cattle. She wasn't sure why the well sent her here, but she knew this world needed help and she would do it.
