Eren's titan body moved quickly through the forest, taking down every titan in sight as it went. It felt free to do as it pleased.

A titan approached from Eren's right and he swung his fist at the side of its head, completely knocking its head from its shoulders. Blood rained down on Eren, creating a tingling sensation on his skin. He loved it, for it was his blood lust. It felt unbelievably good on his skin.

I'll kill them all. Every single one of them.

The Eren that Mikasa and Armin knew was gone. He had lost his memories and would never get them back. He was trapped in his titan body, he didn't know how to get out, but due to his bloodlust he didn't seem to mind. Eren wasn't even aware of the small body he possessed. As far as he was concerned, he was just born…

1 Year Later

It had been exactly one year since they lost Eren. Today was the anniversary of his death and everyone was nervous. They were all waiting for Mikasa and Armin to come down for breakfast. Normally they wouldn't do this, but today they were going out for an expedition; Levi had some things to say before they headed out. They had scheduled it a while back and didn't realize that it was today. Mikasa of course was a little bit upset and lashed out at a few of them, but Armin had calmed her down the best he could.

The sound of footsteps came down the hall, alerting everyone to their presence. Although it only sounded like one pair of footsteps, they all knew that it was two people. Armin didn't attempt to shield his presence from everyone like Mikasa did. Soon they rounded the corner, both Armin and Mikasa looked griefed. However, that changed when they saw their team mates sitting around the table. Armin's features broke out into a soft smile and Mikasa's into a scowl. Walking over to the table, they could feel all of their eyes burning into them. They took their seats next to Krista and dug into their food that Krista had been kind enough to set out for them.

"Now that everyone's here, I'd like to discuss a few things." Levi spoke up. Mikasa growled under her breath, spreading tension throughout the room. But he continued, "You have to get your gear around and meet out front after breakfast. Don't do anything stupid out there, you all know the plan. We're just out there to look for the 15 meter, perhaps catch it." Levi had only recently revealed what he saw one year ago today. The 15 meter that had somehow come out of another titan. Hanji of course was all over the idea of capturing him; she had already theorized several ideas. Including the reproduction theory.

They didn't know if it was still out there or not, but they were given permission to look for the fascinating creature.

Levi continued on with giving directions, completely skipping over the main topic of the day.

Mikasa had enough and slammed her hand down on the table, glaring fiercely at the Commander. "Would you just shut up already? We already know about the expedition. Get to what you really want to say… about Eren…" her voiced trailed off as tears built in her lifeless eyes. Mikasa lowered her head. "Just get on with it…"

Levi knew she would say something; he was purposely avoiding the subject, but he knew that he had to comply. "We will visit his grave after everything is in order… excuse me." He got up from the table and left the room, preoccupying himself with the chores so that he didn't have to think about the painful loss.

Later

The steady pounding of the horse's hooves against the ground soothed Armin as they travelled across the deadly plains. He gazed at the close approaching trees. They were ginormous, their broad trunks serving as the perfect cover for any titan.

Eren POV

Eren sprinted through the forest, where he had been residing ever since his transformation. He was looking for titans, but to no avail. The 15 meter roared out in frustration, he hadn't been able to find anything to eat in days. The titan population in the surrounding area dwindled considerably ever since Eren's arrival. He had either eaten or killed most of the titan in the forest. Eren hoped that the humans would come out of their hiding place soon, he was beginning to get frustrated with them. How could they survive in there for so long?

Mikasa's POV

Mikasa watched Armin closely out of the corner of her eye. She was worried about him, he had been the only one to see Eren die and she worried that seeing a titan might break him. The blank look in his eyes tormented her.

Mikasa guided her horse closer to the boy.

"Armin." she said, carefully reaching out her hand and touching his shoulder. "Are y-"

The ground began to shake slightly. A titan was getting closer. Mikasa recognized the sound of feet thumping against the ground, her eyes narrowed. Everyone stopped their horses, watching as a dark form moved through the trees, right for them. The group looked to Levi for guidance, he was the only one who knew what their titan looked like. The shaking of the ground grew more intense as the titan got closer and finally it burst from the trees.

He was magnificent. The titan's body was closer to a humans than any other titan Mikasa had ever seen. He was about 15 meters and had black hair that reached past its shoulders. His lipless mouth formed a gruesome smile and his long hooked nose hung below his vibrant green and blue eyes. His eyes...

"Eren." Mikasa whispered.

His eyes looked just like Eren's.
