Chapter four: Trost district falls

Mikoto was wondering outside and looking up at the moon "Such a beautiful thing…surrounded by hideous titans" She spoke and sighed "I will slaughter every single titan I see" She spoke and walked to her room.

The bed was cold but she didn't care, she was used to the cold, some people would say she is the very definition of cold, others would say the opposite.

She didn't care for others in a bubbly manner but she did care for people.

The next day Mikoto was walking around with Armin with her maneuver gear "Hey Mikoto why do you have your maneuver gear with you?" Armin asked and she replied "Just in case anything happens" She replied and Armin nodded "You kind of remind me of Eren you know that, but you're just more level headed" Armin commented and Mikoto smiled a little which caused him to widen his eyes "M-Mikoto you s-smiled!" Armin exclaimed and she shrugged "It was more of a grin actually" She exclaimed "Mikoto…how come you never smile anymore?" Armin asked and she stopped in her tracks, the wind blowing her hair around "Those days….those days are over Armin" She replied before she kept walking.

The cadets were on the top of the wall cleaning and Mikoto was sitting all by her self "Man why is she so creepy?" Connie commented and Armin frowned a little "Just give her some time…she's just going through some stuff" Armin said "Okay then…" Connie said.

Mikoto was daydreaming but suddenly she stood up, a very bad feeling in the pit of her gut as she walked over to Armin "Mikoto what's wrong?" Armin asked which caused everyone to stop what they were doing and turn to her "Something's wrong…I feel it" She stated while she got her 3-D maneuver gear out.

Shortly after a bolt of lightning appeared and the gust of wind appeared as which blew Mikoto off the wall but she used her maneuver gear to scale back up the wall only to be face to face with the colossal titan "Eren!" She screamed as she saw him fly towards the titan and followed shortly after.

The titan moved it's arms trying to swat Mikoto off but she stayed on, making deep incisions and she and Eren went for the nape of the neck but a gust of steam blew them away and Mikoto was freefalling towards the opposite side of the wall. "Mikoto!" Eren shouted as he used his maneuver gear and latch onto the wall while he caught Mikoto's unconscious body and scaled back up to the top.

"WHERE'S MIKOTO?!" Connie yelled and Eren pointed to the spot of where he put her but she wasn't there. "Where did she go?" someone asked. More soldiers came and told the cadets to report what happened. Everyone was in a state of panic but Mikoto was walking casually her eyes filled with bloodlust "I won't die by a titan, not like this" She spoke as she readied herself for battle.

She ran into Mikasa who she barely knows but they were both calm about the whole situation "Cadet Ackerman, Cadet Miyazaki we need you both right in the same squad" A commander said. "Wouldn't it be more convenient to split us up in a group due to the scale of this situation?" She asked and the elder solider nodded "Cadet Miyazaki you go to where cadet Arlert is" She nodded and headed off.

The situation looked grim but Mikoto shook off her emotions.
