DISCLAIMER: I DO NO OWN ATTACK ON TITAN

Ilse Lagnar may be OOC for some people but she never really had a cemented personality since she only appeared in one OVA episode, so I decided to interpret the info in the wiki a bit differently.

Please don't kill me.

Year 848

Ilse Lagnar's POV

I was prepared to die the moment that I left the walls, after all I was a part of the scouting regiment, which has the highest mortality rate among all three branches in the military. That was my initial mindset back then, but now that I was left alone with my entire squad dead and a busted Omni-directional Maneuvering Gear, and to add salt to the wounds my damn horse ran away from me. The only thing that I could do then was to document my experience outside the walls, in hopes that one of the other scouts would find this notebook should I not make it.

I have been running through the forest for a few hours with breaks in between when I still hadn't encountered any titans though one couldn't be too careless, at that my hopes of coming home alive was rising bit by bit.

I might make it back home

The hopes came crashing down immediately when I heard the snapping of branches from my right, slowly I looked hoping against all odds that it was just a wild animal and not what I dreaded it to be, but alas it seems that fate was against me for what may be the last time in my life.

There at my right was a 6-meter class titan and I knew that I was dead, with no maneuvering gear I was a sitting duck, add to the fact that due to the sudden appearance of the titan I ended up tripping and eating dirt, this could not get any worse… until the damn titan decided to speak.

I tried to move away from the titan my unfortunately my back was against a tree, despite all that was happening my hands were still writing everything as if they have a mind of their own. My entire body was shaking in fear as I wait for the inevitable when the titan bowed in front of me in seeming reverence. I was staring at the titan like it just grew a second head when I heard a rumbling voice.

"..Ymir's...people…"

It spoke….the damn titan spoke, for the first time in the 100 years of humanity being stuck in the walls by titans, I was now conversing with one.

I don't know what kind of aberrant this is because I was not about to question the only thing that was keeping from becoming titan snack, the titan continues to stare at me as another rumble escapes from its mouth.

"Lady Ymir….Welcome…"

It seemed to have mistaken me for this person called Ymir, I tried to converse with it and record any findings in my notebook; I asked it the titan about its nature but instead of answering it merely moaned, next I asked it why it eats us but the reply remained the same. I started to demand answers but it just kept groaning.

At that point I confess I was starting to get emotional, after seeing countless friends and comrades die by their kind it was kind of hard to keep your temper in check, in hindsight yelling at a creature that could grab you with one hand and kill you with a bite, so I did the smart thing I started to yell obscenities at the 6 meter man eating titan that had me at their mercy, not gonna lie it was one of my greatest moments, standing up against the face of death and not backing down….. Yeah bullshit I was scared shitless after I started screaming at the titan.

And comes instant karma as the titan started to groan way louder than before. As I looked back it seemed to be mutilating its own body judging by the fact that it just scratched its own eyes own. Seeing an opportunity to escape I ran while the eyes of the titan began steaming and regenerating. But as fate would have it, I would not succeed, the moment that I stood up and ran a part of my clothing caught a root stopping me from going forward, I was able to rip it off but the time loss from getting stuck gave the titan enough time to lunged at me, I was able to dodge the first time causing the titan to hit a tree but my lack ran out when I was hit by a falling branch that was knocked out by the impact of the titan against the tree, giving the titan another chance to lunge at me and this time it was lucky, I seemed to straining but slowly but surely my head was nearing its teeth, while this was happening a lot of thoughts went through my mind but was stood out was the fact that a falling branch caused my demise.

Oh gravity thou art a heartless bitch.

I was ready to meet my friends in the afterlife when I heard the sound of thunder in the distance.

"That's weird" I thought "it's a sunny day why is there thunder?"

I was about to die and I was wondering about the weather, I needed to get my priorities straight.

As the sound of thunder grew louder the ground began to shake, just as I was about to curse my luck of being eaten and being in an earthquake the titan that was holding me captive was suddenly launched into the sky like it was wearing a goddamn maneuvering gear. I look to see what in wall rose happened when I saw a 14-meter class titan standing in front of the fucker that tried to eat me earlier. Although unlike the titan earlier something was different about this taller titan; while most titans, especially the taller ones were always lanky or had a disproportionate body; either skinny arms, or small heads whatever, but this particular titan was anything but disproportionate, it had the body of a soldier that was meant to exert equal amounts of speed and strength, and those crystal like hands, it looked like it could crack a boulder between them, heck it probably could. I just stood there as the other titan began to stomp at the nape of the other one so it seemed that this particular titan also possessed intelligence, but now I had another problem, now she was stuck with a fifteen meter instead of 6 meter that I could supposedly outrun. I was about to bolt when the titan roared in what seemingly sounds like a victory roar when it turned its head to face me. When I made eye contact I could tell that somehow this titan was different; instead of the hazy eyes that titans normally have, this titans eyes were startling sky blue, its eyes were full of emotion. It shocked her to no end when the eyes seemed to glitter and liquid fell out of its eyes. It is crying? Emotions and titans was something that I never thought would mix, but here it is a crying titan. Before I could muse further a rumbling sound came from the titan as it opened its mouth. "NO WAY" I screamed inside "ANOTHER TALKING TITAN?!"

Said titan then defied the odd and spoke.

"Rachel?"

What is it with me that I keep getting mistaken as someone else by these damn titas!
