IT with a capital I is referring to the dragon, hope that clear any confusion that might occur.
Erens Pov
We had been riding all day so they decided to take shelter for the night in a cave. I had four knights with me on this journey: Jean, Marco, Reiner and Armin. We had made a campfire to heat the cold cave up, we sat down around it to eat their dinner.
"I can't wait to see Mikasa" Armin beamed as he took a bite of his bread and cheese "we haven't seen her in what … 6 years"
"No we haven't, we were just kids back then" I muttered and took a piece of dried meat and added it on my bread. I was not happy about this, but there was nothing to do.
"I have heard that she is the very beautiful and strong lady" Jean stated with his mouth full of food.
Out of the corner of my eye I saw Reiner lightly tap Connie's shoulder whisper something in his ear and then put down a piece of his meat in front of them Connie then did the same.
"She was pretty back in then isn't that right Eren?" Armin asked.
"I guess so" I mumbled and took another bite.
"And she used to save your ass all the time" Armin continued totally unaware that I didn't want to talk right now.
"And yours" I did remember all the times Mikasa had saved his and Armin's asses. Armin used to be bullied for being a bookworm without parents so Eren had tried saving him but it never went well so Mikasa had come running.
"She sounds amazing, I'm almost jealous of you Jaeger" Jean joked. Connie and Reiner added more meat to their stack.
"Shut up horse face" I snapped.
"Whoa what's up with you" Jean asked.
"Nothing"
"Yes there is Eren you haven't been yourself since yesterday" Armin pried
"No there is not just let it go I'm fine" I ate the last of my bread and started to roll my sleeping back out and folded my green cape so I could use it as a pillow. I saw Reiner look smock as he took all the meat and Connie looked devastated as he lost his whole ration of meat for this trip.
I laid down for the night and the other soon followed, not long after snores could be heard in the cave. But there was some other sound as well, I could not describe it. I got up took my cape and went to find the source, it lead me deeper in to the cave. I don't know how long I walked before I found it but I found IT. It was big black, with wings, and was currently spewing fire at the ground. I was just about to turn around and warn the others when one of It's silver eyes looked straight at me, I turned around to run as fast as I could but it wasn't fast enough. It reached me with one of It's claws, holding me as it started to walked towards the entrains. I screamed as loud as I could trying to warn my men. I could see our camp now and they were just waking up.
"Run for your lives there is a dragon here!" I yelled trying to get them to wake up and see. Their half sleeping brains must have caught the word Dragon, because they were getting up faster than ever before.
"But what about you sir?" Connie asked.
"You can't do anything it already has me, run and get backup so you can rescue me later" the dragon was getting ready to attack them.
"But sir" they all complained except Armin who was probably calculating a plan.
"There is nothing we can do right now, we have a better chance of success if we get backup" good old Armin he understands.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes! Just go get the backup I'll be fine" they ran away some of them looking back over their shoulders as they left.
As soon as we were out of the cave the dragon starting to fly. It was weird seeing the trees and towns from this perspective, they looked so small from up here. It was weird but I wasn't panicking, all I could think was that this was a very efficient way of traveling and that it was good that I weren't afraid of heights.
We landed outside another cave entrains and It sat me down. It used It's head to push me forwards when I was walking to slowly. I was glad that it was guiding me because this cave was like a maze, we ended in front of a very big door. It opened it and on the other side was a nice little room with a bed in the corner, a desk, a bookshelf against one of the walls and a fireplace that the dragon lit up as soon as we entered.
"Behind that door is the bathroom with shower and a bathtub" it chocked me, It could talk, why wouldn't it be able to talk but still. "What is it, why do you look like that, if you need to go take a dump it's in there" he pointed to the door with one claw.
"No its just … I didn't know you could talk" I could feel my face heat up.
"Why wouldn't I be able to talk, I'm not stupid you know" great now It was getting angry with me good job Eren.
"No I didn't mean it like that, it was just you didn't talk before now so I just fought you couldn't" great that didn't help at all.
"Just because someone doesn't constantly talk doesn't mean they are mute" great It was really getting annoyed with me.
"I know I just didn't know okay can we just forget I said anything?" I was hoping It would forgive and forget. I don't know why but I didn't want It to hate me and it didn't make sense since I should hate It, It did kidnap me after all.
"No, you can't just forget something someone said just because they ask you to" It didn't sound mad anymore just confused.
"Never mind"
A couple minutes passed before the silence was broken again.
"I'll bring you breakfast tomorrow morning, goodnight" It announced and left me alone in the room, I think I heard the lock get locked not that I would be able to find my way out anyway.
I week went by and I had had plenty of time to study the dragon and I had found that It wasn't just onyx black as I had thought, Its scales shone in many other colors like green, blue, purple and even red. It was a beautiful sight. Its eyes weren't just grey either, they were more silver and sometimes they had hints of blue. I was pretty sure that the dragon was male as it looked and sounded masculine. It was a little smaller than I thought dragons would be, but It was still a good 2 meters taller than me when it was on all four. It was a very grumpy dragon and a clean freak. It hadn't done anything to me in the time it had held me prisoner. Every morning it brought me food and stayed to talk or just lay on the floor in front of the fire. Before It left it would either tell me to clean the room or to come with it to help clean somewhere else, but that was the worst It had done to me. Something was different today It was late with breakfast and when It finally arrived It wasn't with food It just looked worried.
"They are on their way to free you" It muttered like It had never thought this day would come. My mind went blank for a moment, why, what, where, when all these questions and I ask none of them out loud because my mind was too focused on figuring out if I really wanted to be rescue. They would just take me back to the palace and my dad would then force me to marry someone I didn't want, but if I didn't go home they would try to kill It and I didn't want that. "Do you want to leave?" It asked me it almost sounded sad.
"If I don't they hurt you" I don't know why it mattered so much to me if It got hurt.
"Then I won't stop you from leaving with them" It mumbled. I could hear the men now.
"Stay in here I'll go to them and tell them that you left me alone, then they won't hurt you" I advised.
"If that's what you want" It stated and turned around. But there was still something I needed to ask before I left.
"Will … I ever … see you again?" I asked shyly not knowing why I would want to.
It looked more confused than I felt when it answered with "If that's what you want then sure" it almost looked like It was smiling at me the blue shining brighter in It's eyes. I started to walked towards the voices.
"Eren where are you!" a female voice yelled it sounded kinda familiar, but I wasn't sure. "Eren!" yes it was defiantly familiar.
"I'm right here!" I yelled back. I heard footsteps run towards me and before I registered what it was, it had thrown itself around my neck. She had black hair, but not as black or beautiful as It's scales. I was able to see Armin walk towards us when she finally released me. Behind him was Jean, Connie and Reiner together with four more knights I didn't recognize, but I must have been some of Mikasa's knights since they were wearing the royal family of Sina's crest a green unicorn on a shield. Two of them were women around our age one of them had brown hair in a high ponytail with messy bangs she was carrying a bow which was rare for knights to do, the other woman had blonde hair in a bun with long bangs and cold almost dead eyes. There were was also two men I hadn't meet before one of them had short black hair and freckles he looked friendly, the other one was very tall even taller than Reiner he had dark brown hair.
"Are you all right Eren?" Mikasa asked.
"I'm fine" she didn't look like she believed me "really" I added.
I could tell that she didn't believe me, but she didn't say anything as we left the cave. On our journey to the east I learnt that the brunette females name was Sasha Braus, the blondes name was Annie Leonhard, black haired's name was Marco Bodt and the tall ones name was Bertholdt Hoover.
