Chapter 4: " Escaping the city together "

I stood there plastered on the ground trembling and unmoving. I was afraid, so afraid that all things that popped into my head were ways of how painful my death would be.

It bent down shaking the ground with a evil smile on it's face.

Closing my eyes I waited for my death.

But it didn't.

I opened it quickly only to see that it was walking away, Hungrily looking at the group of villagers who trembled in fear the way I did.

I ran away, Not helping them. And I hated myself for that.

The city was in rubbles but there were a few buildings that still stood tall. But the titans who also stood tall overlooked the city, There were so many of them.

I looked at my right to see an upcoming titan who made the ground shake powerfully, throwing me off balance.

Taking in heavy breathes,I ran swiftly towards a building that was still standing. I went inside and fell,"I'm so tired." I huffed.

Curling up like a ball, I hushed myself to sleep.

I was woken up by somebody who was shaking my shoulders-It was a man.

"Thank-goodness your awake. We have to leave this house, A titan is close by." He pulled me up and gave me something.

It was a long sharpened sword which was engraved with the symbols of roses."Wh-where did you get this!?" I asked, It was beautiful.

"We have to leave now! He dragged me out and we ran together." I gazed at his face he was tall and well-toned, He had ravishing blonde locks that stopped on his neck(of course) and eyes that matched the fresh green leaves of spring. He was handsome.

"Where do we go from now onwards?" I asked, as we kept on running.

He looked at me."Were gonna run towards the second wall, so practically, were gonna enter a zone where we can't hide from titans."

I gaped at his idea, was this the only way to get to safe lands!? I wiped the sweat forming on my forehead.

"Do you think we can survive this?" I asked hopelessly not directly looking at him.

He was silent but it was soon broken after a few seconds."I'm a person who trained to be a cadet but didn't graduate because...because I was framed of murder."

"I know the only way to kill a titan." He paused." Cut the flesh at the base of the neck,that way they wouldn't be able regenerate and soon they'll rot."

"That's the only way to kill it?" I asked once again. He looked straight at me. "It's the only way we know for now."

So this is how we'll be, We'll escape the city together.

It was already night time and we took refuge in the basement of a house which was still usable.

I sat in the corner as he prepared food.

"So what's your name" He asked with a smile on his face. Seriously, how can he be so calm when you're not even sure if you'll survive the next day?

He sat beside me giving me a wooden bowl filled with corn soup and minced mushrooms, where the heck did he get those?

"If your not answering,I'll introduce myself first." He stopped and looked a the small lit fire." My name is Light Paige, I'm 16 years-old."

Light? Strange, But It suited him damn well.

"I'm Alphonsine,14 years-old."

"No last name?"

I nodded." I'm an orphan."

"I'm sorry for letting you bring it up."

And it was silent, I took a sip on the soup. It was delicious!

I watched from the corner of my eye on how he ate, he was slow. Like he was trying to enjoy every sip.

Then I felt the pain I felt when I the lethal serum was injected in me. I curled my body in pain, tears starting to fall down.

"What's wrong!?" He ran up his hands towards me,shaking my shoulders.

I let out a painful scream, hoping it didn't attract the titans.

"I just want this pain to disappear... " Just then I felt strong arms surround me in a protective manner.

"Shhh..., It's ok. I don't know what your going through, but don't worry I'm here for you."

I buried my face to his chest,crying softly. And the pain vanished, I felt the need to tell him why, maybe just him.

"I don't know you that much,but you've owned my trust. So now I'll tell you my secrets."

And then I told him about my past first, How sad my childhood was. And soon I told him about my biggest secret.

" I was kidnapped by a man a week before all this happened. I was brought to a lab where a man named ; a man who experimented on human beings. Experimented on me. He injected a lethal serum filled with titan cells and other deadly liquids into me which I almost didn't survive. I'm telling you this, right now, I could tell that I'm not a normal girl, the changes haven't started but soon it will, so now I ask you. Would you still escape this city with me, I'm fine with any decision you make."

He smiled at me and flicked my forehead."Are you an idiot or what? I knew from the moment I saw you that you weren't normal, why would I leave you just because of that?Whether you like it or not, You'll escape this city with me."

And I broke down crying. I thought he'd leave me..., I guess people really do differ.

And I fell asleep.

I woke up by Light's shaking.

Opening my eyes, I see him all geared up and ready to go."Were leaving now?"

He raised his other eyebrow."What do you think?" He replied sarcastically.

I punched his arm hard.

"What was that for!?" He rubbed has arm.

" That's for hugging me yesterday, I'm still a girl you know!" I pointed out.

He laughed at me."You haven't reached puberty yet, you don't even have boobs. Why would I take advantage of you?"

I blushed madly."Why you!" I punched his arm harder than before."Damn you!"

We climbed up only to see a titan blocking our path.

Once again,I was afraid. I looked at Light he was gone.

The titan bended down reaching it's huge fat fingers towards me at the process.

"Light!" I screamed in terror at watching the huge titan reach towards me.

Then it fell down With a loud 'Thud' "What just happened." I looked at the titan who was slowly rotting away.

"Light!Light!?" I called out only to see him pop out of nowhere.

"Where were you!? I almost died there you dumbass!"

He bended down to reach my height." I saved your ass there, I killed the titan just like the way I told you how" He answered sarcastically.

Then he walked a little in front of me,offering his hands backwards.

"Were gonna escape this city together right?" He scratched his head with his other free hand.

I took his hand and smiled." Heck yeah!"

And we ran together, Escaping the city together.
