Vater unser der do bist I'm Himmel


Zeke Yeager, a high ranking Lieutenant of Eldia – a governmental army base in the middle Eldian Kingdom. He has led and commanded the army of thousands of men and a speaker of the Government House. Though he was a man that was never pleased. He is twenty nine years old and the job he loves the most is now dull and boring, every day was the same. He knew his wife, Pieck, knew this but nothing could change, not since ten years….

The Eldian Kingdom was a beautiful town surrounded by the clearest of waters. Pure white building's dotted around but only one stood out. The Government House. A huge cathedral like building with a metal clock and titan-like statues. Around the building was the town all spread out evenly and dotted around were shopping centres, housing estates/schools and training centres. It was a beautiful place to live but this town has a heart-breaking and harsh law that goes back thousands of years. People who were born with magical abilities were not permitted to live in Eldian and were outcast, the age was not limited. Generations of Directors that had ruled in the government house has lawed this for centuries and many families were left broken and weak, anyone who stood up to this law was tried and killed. The outcasts would live anywhere but not the kingdom nor its surrounding villages or smaller towns. Even today, they were still outlawed. However for one family this changed their lives forever….

10 years earlier…

A twelve year old Eren was having the time of his life playing in the back garden of this cosy house. His sea green eyes watched the ladybird crawling along the leaves that grew of the colourful flowers that sat in his mother's flower bed. His brother was working at Eldia, he had not long joined the army and had already became captain. His mother was washing the dirty dishes in the kitchen and his father reading the paper at the marble stone table in the garden. It was a normal afternoon and they had not long had lunch together. His mother had cooked up a mini feast for the family to eat on this hot sunny day.

The young boy was sat on the fresh green grass far from his father. He was a boy of peace and he wanted to be near the flowers that his mother would plant every so often on a weekend. So many colours that took his fascination. He watched as the bees flew down and landed perfectly in the middle of the colourful plant. Above him he could hear the birds singing away. But what really interested this boy was a small ladybird. A ladybird that had now landed on the petal of the plant when the bee had left. He watched the small creature with happy eyes, he was very interested in nature and how it worked, and he'd spend hours in his room reading up on them. His parents found it odd but amusing in his young age.

"Eren!" his mother called from the kitchen.

Eren looked round to watch his mother walk from the kitchen and out into the garden to take her seat next to her husband. Eren smiled and rushed over to her.

"Mother." He said with delight.

"Pieck's coming round today." His mother softly said as she placed her soft warm hands on his thin shoulders.

"Brother's fiancé?" he asked.

"Yes, she'll be stopping over for a couple of weeks while her parents have a holiday." She smiled.

Eren adored Pieck, he didn't have any friends, but he thought of her as a friend. Although, she was seven months pregnant with Zeke's baby and became tired very easily. Whenever she came over she would walk with him over the fields and give him a proper day out. He loved those days and she had done that ever since they'd gotten to know each other. Eren was just happy to have known her.

"She may take you over the fields." Said his mother and Eren nodded.

"Probably not far. Don't forget she's getting bigger." Said his father with a warm smile.

"I don't mind if it's just in one area. I just wanna spend the day with her." Said Eren.

"She'll be here in couple of hours." His mother said and Eren laughed.

Later, Pieck had arrived at the house, parking her small car behind Mr Yeager's. Once she'd locked it up she walked over to the door. Pieck had just come from working seven hours in a café dressed all in black. Her midnight hair was tied up and she walked to the front door. After ringing it Mrs Yeager opened the door.

"Hello Pieck, darling." Said Mrs Yeager as she walked out embracing her into a hug, minding Pieck's bump. "Come on in, you have any luggage?"

"Yes, it's in the boot." Said Pieck with her sweet voice.

"Ok, lend me your keys and I'll take them in for you." Mrs Yeager offered.

"Oh, thank you." Pieck smiled and gave them to her.

"Eren's in the garden."

"Ok."

Pieck entered the house and made her way to the garden where she found Mr Yeager sitting at the table now enjoying a cold beer whilst Eren was still interested in the insects.

"Hello, Mr Yeager." She said giving him a hug from behind.

"Oh, hello my dear." he smiled and waited for her to take a seat next to him. "How's work?"

"Oh it's fine. Training a new girl for my maternity leave. Sandra is her name, sweet girl." She said sliding down the chair slightly to support her body.

"How is it?" he then asked slightly pointing to her bump.

"Weird but happy. I'm not sure how to explain it. I just want this baby so much that I wish I'd given birth already and to finally hold them." Pieck smiled stroking her bump.

"That's the nature of it. We've change Zeke's mattress, it got old so I'm hoping it's perfect for you." He explained and Pieck nodded before looked at Eren who now had a bird perched on his hand. She watched as he stroked it with a warming smile, seeing the bird not feeling any harm or having any worries.

"How's he been? Any problems?" Pieck asked in a more serious tone and Mr Yeager sighed looking back to his son with worry in his eyes.

"He's not destroyed anything so far nor showing any signs. He's just been the normal Eren." He explained briefly as to not worry her.

"I'd hate if he had to be outcast, it wouldn't feel like a family with him gone. Eren has grown into a fine young man ever since I meet him four years ago. He was very sweet and kind. I know I have seen his episodes but he's just a child." She said sadly as she recalled the memories.

"But there's no age limit." Mrs Yeager gently reminded her as entered the garden to join them.

"Huh?" she snapped her head to Mr Yeager, her blue eyes fixed on his stern face that was fixed on his son.

"If the Phoenix catch wind of Eren. They'll hunt him down and send him away. I can't have him go through that, being labelled as an outcast." He said leaning forwards. "I want to protect him as much as I can."

"You're a strong father, Mr Yeager." She said sweetly watching him look at her.

"Please, Grisha will do." He waved and Pieck giggled.

"Ok, Grisha." She looked back to Eren who was still fixated on the bird. She breathed out happily before moving over to him. When the bird flew she'd bent down slightly and took his side. Eren jumped slightly before looking over to see her. His grin grew wider as he turned to hug her.

"Pieck." He said.

"Hey there champ." She said before releasing and standing up straight. "Wanna go to the fields in a couple of days."

"Yeah." He said and she nodded.

During the evening the family ate dinner and now sat in the living room watching the TV. Eren sat beside Pieck while his parents sat on another piece of sofa. Eren's eyes looking at her bump and his brain working out how a woman could carry another human. This though was scary to him and he had never really understood the subject of pregnancy. It was at that point that he notice Pieck looking at him with a small smile. She knew he was curious and gestured him to touch her bump. Eren reached his hand over touch her belly and lightly touched the hard skin. He slightly stroked it, getting a feel of what it was like.

"This is your nephew or niece. A new addition to the family." She said pacing her hand on his.

Just as she did that the front door had opened and closed softly. Both turned to see a man dressed in a captain's uniform for the army. His blonde messy hair everywhere. This was Zeke, and Zeke had just returned from Eldia for the night before going off again the next day. He generously walked through to the living room and giving his fiancé a loving kiss. Eren had released his hand from her belly and moved over to his brother who knelt down to hug him and finishing it off with a pat on the head.

"Sweetie I thought you were taking Eren to the fields today." He said but Pieck shook her head.

"Oh no, not for a couple of days. I'm training a new girl and I can't take him there." She said.

"No one else will take Eren because it's his and Pieck's Nature Time." Said Grisha and both he and Eren nodded.

"Oh right, I see." Said Zeke before taking his seat next to his soon-to-be-wife and the two cuddled up together leaving Eren on his own. But he was ok with that because he retreated to his bedroom. His room was blue and shelves full of frozen insects in jars or cabinets. Books filled with knowledge of nature. He was stood in the door way to his room, he moved in attempt to get over to his bed that was opposite and below the window. His body suddenly felt light and soon vanished in a short silver light and within milliseconds he reappeared standing on his bed. He didn't take him long to realized he had just teleported from his doorway to his bed. This was something he was born with, teleporting but he had also developed a few more techniques such as destroying things with a click of his fingers and setting things a light. Eren's life was complicated because he had no friends at school and no one would speak to him unless they were friends of the family or relatives. He resorted to nature because that was the only species that would acknowledge him. He felt like he could talk to them and help get out his feelings and thoughts. Though, he does love his nature time with Pieck in the field, it was the only time and place where she would listen to him and they'd spend some alone time whilst watching the sun go down. But, ever since he had discovered this ability of his he just wasn't sure if it healthy for him. He definitely knew not to use them outside in case Eldian finds out. He was scared that if he ever had to leave that his family would forget him or that he would forget them…..

It was getting late and the family were still sat downstairs whilst Eren had quietly gone to bed. It was nearly midnight and four were still sat watching TV. All four knew the discussion that will occur but it was the question of who would speak first.

"I wish this didn't happen to Eren." Said Nilea, Mrs Yeager, they knew this was coming.

"Mother, we can't assume anything will happen." Said Zeke cuddle up with his fiancé.

"I know but if Eldian finds out….."

"They won't." Zeke interrupted. "We're doing fine, he's not going anywhere."

"Have they suspected anything at work, love?" Pieck asked looking into his blue eyes for answers.

"No." he shook his head. "As far as I'm aware the Director or Eldian doesn't know. We're safe for now." He said rubbing her arms smoothly.

"But for how long?" Grisha said looking down at the floor.

Zeke sat at his office desk filling out the paper work of the private's training and improvements. This was the only part of his job he hated. On his shiny desk was a photo of his family, his lovely fiancé smiling as she was sat on the garden grass, his parents at the front door of their new house and another of a close up photo of his bother smiling and his head resting on his arms. Every now and then he would look at the pictures to remind him of his family waiting for him at home. All the memorise he had with them flooded into his mind, distracting him from his work. Zeke smiled to himself, he was so lost in thought that he didn't noticed his door had opened and figure was now stood in front of his desk. Zeke blinked and looked at the figure. It was Lieutenant Nile Dok, the one man he hated. Zeke and Nile go way back and never got on as friends so they became rivals. Nile always thought he was better than Zeke and always looked down on him as if he was dirt on his shoe. He couldn't deal with Nile right now due to the work he had but this guy made his life even harder.

"Hey there." Nile said cheekily as he cocked a grin on his oily face.

"Don't talk to me Nile, I have too much work to do." He said and continued his paperwork.

"Oh, so much that you ponder over those photos." Said Nile picking up the two of his fiancé and parents. "Sweet partner." He grinned and Zeke who was giving him a glare. "Nice family." He placed the two photos down before picking up the third. Zeke went to take it off him but Nile was quicker and drew it towards him whilst taking a step back when Zeke stood up.

"Now, now Zeke. Violence solves nothing." He mocked and then looked at the photo. "Damn, that you're younger brother?" he winked at him but Zeke growled.

"Give it back!"

"He looks like a nice kid, maybe I should get to know him."

"Don't go anywhere near him Nile!" Zeke gritted his teeth. This suddenly gave Nile suspicions.

"Oh, is he an outcast?" he questioned as a joke but when he noticed the seriousness in Zeke's eyes he knew he hit the nail. Zeke said nothing but glared. "I wonder what the Director would think if he was told." His grin grew darker.

"Nile, he is not an outcast I just don't want you near my family. Come near them and I will kill you." Zeke threatened.

"Touchy aren't we? Nah, you brother looks like a pull back. He'll only slow you down."

"Insult my brother again and I'll do more than report you."

"Come on Zeke, give me what you got." Nile said as he walked over and leaned into Zeke, both glaring. "I bet I could be a better brother to that outcast of yours."

"He's not an outcast."

"Until the Director hears otherwise."

"Are you challenging me?"

"No, I'm just helping the Director getting rid of wasteful flesh with inhuman abilities. I'm sure your little sibling will feel welcomed."

"You have no evidence."

"Not yet." Nile grinned at him before turning away to the open the door. "Afternoon." He said before leaving.

Nile really annoyed him and now he suspects his brother of being an outcast. If his brother was exposed he'll never see him again and the family will be destroyed. He just couldn't think of what would happen when Eren is found. He couldn't convict his younger brother to live as an outcast.

Would he be treated with kindness?

Do outcasts treat each other with respect?

Zeke just couldn't think. But right now the only thing he could think of was his parents. He sighed and sat down rubbing his head before picking up the phone on the right side of him and dialling the house number. He waited as the phone rang he knew his father was off for the day and his mother would be at the shops. The phone still rang.

Maybe he was in the shower?

Or just in the garden and may not be able to hear the phone?

Nope, the phone was picked up after a while.

"Hello, Grisha speaking."

"Dad." Zeke said.

"Son, what's wrong you never phone from work unless it was vital." His father replied.

"Well it is."

"What is it?" his father was now worried.

"I thought Eren was safe, but it turns out he's not."

"What are you talking about son?"

"Nile Dok."

"Oh, not him again, what's he up to?"

"He's figured it out. He's caught on to Eren."

"You can't be serious."

"Dad, all it took was for him to look at the photo I have. I think he's gonna look for Eren. Where is he?"

"Eren's with you mother at the shops. Should I call for them to come home?" Grisha asked.

"No, wait for them to come back and make sure Eren stays at home. Nile knows my address because of past events. He knows where to find Eren. I think our protection is failing, the Director would believe anything to do with outcasts."

"Yes, you're right. I'll make sure they stay home. But Zeke…"

"What?"

"….Pieck's taking Eren to the fields later today because she finishes early."

"Damn, they love the fields. Alright they can go because the fields aren't that far."

"I'll tell them when they return. Bye son."

"Bye, father."

He ended the call. This was bad, Nile had destroyed what they guard and now Eren really is on the line. He had to find a way to protect his brother from Nile who was absolutely dead set on exposing Eren. Only a video or photo that explained Eren because his warps and burning are happening to frequently and he could not stop it. Eren doesn't understand or know how to control his powers. This could have him sussed out. But what Zeke didn't know right now was that Nile was stood just outside the door.

The café was fairly quiet and the radio was just as boring. Pieck stood behind the counter elbows on polished wood and head on her hands. She was bored and after teaching Sandra there was nothing left to do and she was finishing in two hours. But her mind wondered and her thoughts on the fields that her and Eren goes to. She wondered what they'd talk about, if it was something he'd done because he wouldn't talk to his parents just in case but the atmosphere of their conversation was always light and positive. Having Eren speak in an environment he was use to made the conversation a lot smoother. Pieck didn't know how she ended up taking Eren to the fields but it was not long after she'd met him. They used to talk out in the garden but then his parents to Zeke would interrupt and nothing was said. One day, she took him to the fields and when they were out in the open Eren spoke about things more in depth and how he felt. Pieck loved hearing Eren talk, it told her of his happiness and it really was the only time they could talk in private. She always knew that Eren could come to her if he needed something or just to talk because that was her personality. To be honest she was very fond of Eren, he was happier than his brother and she sees him more than her fiancé and if it was the other way round she would marry Eren but she couldn't because he was eleven and she was in love with his brother. Pieck looked down at her bump, standing straight she gently soothed her hand over the clothed skin and closed her eyes. She wanted Eren to be a part of their child's life. She wanted her child to be happy and safe with Eren, she trusted him enough to be alone with him. Although Zeke was fond of the idea with her and Eren in the fields at first but he grew used to it since he was home late and never got to spend time with her so he's ok with Eren keeping her company. Pieck sighed and the door opened with a jingle. She snapped her eyes open.

"Hello." She said but happiness took her completely, the person who had entered the café was her soon-to-be-husband. She smiled as he walked up to the counter. "Why, hello kind sir." She giggled.

"How you doing, miss?" he giggled back.

"So what brings you here, you finished?" she said but the seriousness that was now in his eyes had said it all.

He had sat her down on a nearby table that had a candle light flickering. He had told her everything and the atmosphere soon changed.

"What!" she exclaimed. "He'll expose Eren."

"It was a scare, I have to protect him." Zeke replied.

"I'm sure you do. But, you know Nile. Would he really do that? Would he really break a family?" she asked him but Zeke lowered his eyes to the candle light not responding to her questions and she sighed heavily. "Zeke?" she said and he still didn't respond. "I'm taking him to the fields tonight. I'll talk to him and make him understand. This will prepare him to….."

"You can't!" Zeke jumped in having her look in shock. "You can't tell him someone knows. This will make him very uncomfortable and you know what happens when he's uncomfortable." She stole a breath when he looked at her dead in the eye. "He'll click his fingers and destroy and that will definitely expose him. I'm fine with you taking him to the fields but I can't have him know about this."

"And you think that's fair?"

"To protect him than yes." Zeke then sighed. "Pieck I can't have this family broken. You know, we didn't know about it until he was three. We noticed this warping and he hadn't realized he'd done it. Mother and father were deeply worried for Eren because of this law. They wanted to keep this private and they have up until now." He shook his head. "Pieck, I'm worried." He then hung his head. Pieck had seen this sadness and she reached over to his hand and placed hers on his. Zeke looked up to have direct eye contact with her, her warm smile made it better.

"I know you are, we still have to live with it. No matter the result."

"That's why I love you." He said romantically and leaned in for a kiss.

When they returned home Zeke spotted his brother sat on the floor watching a nature documentary. Just looking at him made his heart ached so much. He just knew that his room would be empty and that was not what he was wanted to see. But Zeke knew he just had to make the most of it. He felt Pieck's hand on his shoulder before she went up to take a quick shower. Zeke, however, sighed deeply before moving over to his brother to sit next to him on the floor.

"Hey squirt." He said wrapping an arm over his brother's shoulders.

"Hey bro, check it out. That's a whale." He said pointing to the screen that had a beautiful shot of a whale swimming calmly in the sea. "It's beautiful and calm. I just wish I was like that."

"Huh? Why's that?" Zeke questioned looking to his brother.

"Because I know someone will find out and I'll be sent away." He suddenly felt Zeke's grip tighten and Eren looked to his brother in the eyes.

"You're not going anywhere. You know why?" he watched Eren shake his head. "Because I'm your brother and I'm here to protect you. I'll always protect you, Eren. I promise."

"You really mean it?"

"Of course, what kind of brother will I be if I couldn't protect you?" He smiled.

Eren moved in for a tight hug with his brother and silently let a tear drop from his eyes. Zeke held his brother close to him like he was his life support.

"That's right kiddo. I'll protect until the very end." He said softly.

Pieck had returned having showered and changed into a light and colourful flowery strapped dress with matching pumps. She smiled at the two until Eren noticed her.

"Are we going now?" he said happily and she nodded.

He quickly said good bye to his brother and parents before taking Pieck's hands and leaving the house and into the sunny day.

The two walked through the happy smiling town fill with arch ways and streets. Stone floors and markets everywhere. Now days like this Pieck would treat Eren to dinner. She would take him to diner where he'd eat well cooked food and cold drinks. She loved seeing him so happy. Once they would eat she'd take him round the town provided she'd get rest stops. But after having a great day in the town the two walked out of the city and into the green grassed fields. Walking up to the gate Pieck opened in and allowed Eren to run on ahead while she took her sweet time. Eren ran like he was free from suspicion and power. He stopped to look a freedom before. He took in a huge breath of air and clearing his mind. Here he felt relaxed and safest the most. Eren let out a breath before sitting down on the fresh grass. From afar he could hear Pieck quiet walking up to him before stopping behind him.

"I feel more relaxed here." Eren said until suddenly Pieck got down on her knees and wrapped her arms loosely around his shoulders. "Pieck." He said looking behind to her.

"It's ok right? For you to have this power." She said before looking at his confused look. "It's not like you're hurting anyone. Why do people do this?" she questioned but Eren turned his gaze back to the beautiful scenery in front.

"I don't know. It just happens. I don't understand this law but it doesn't mean I can't break it."

"Eren, even if you are sent away, I'll never forget you."

"I won't forget anyone." He replied.

"It' just I want you to be a part of our baby's life. I want our child to have a connection with you and a place in your heart." She said releasing him to move over and sit down beside him.

"I wanna know your child too."

She looked over to Eren and smiled.

"Eren, I want to hold that pretty flower you found a while back." She watched Eren look to her before nodding.

She watched him go down further to the flowers below. She watched him look through the bushes and flowers while she waited for him to come back with the flower she'd requested. Finally, he had returned to her holding a flower but then something unusual happened. Instead of walking back, he accidently warped back without even realizing it but Pieck didn't say anything a part from taking the flower from him. She may not have said anything but a figure with a camera will.

The next day Zeke was getting ready for work quietly without waking his fiancé, he had received email from the Director that all employees were to report to the government house at seven hundred hours. Once he was dressed he picked up an apple and quickly drove to work. He wondered what this meeting was about and such a sudden one to. Well, he guess something cropped up during night. But it was so bizarre to have a meeting like this at the crack of dawn. Anyway he took the one way road up to the huge cathedral like house, he drove around the huge fountain and at the bottom of the stairs that enter into the building. Getting out he gave his keys to a private shofar who took his car to the car park while he began to make his way up the stairs. Halfway up, he met his second in command, Colt Grice, wearing similar clothing to him and on his face was the same confused look.

"So what's up?" he asked Colt.

"Dunno Sir, but it's something big. The Director wanted everyone to hear this. It sounds serious." Colt replied.

"Looks it too if everyone is turning up." Zeke answered.

"I hope not. I can't deal with any more bad news, not after my wife's death."

"I sorry to hear that Colt." Zeke nodded in sorrow.

"Thank you sir." Colt nodded

The two made their way into the house. The inside was dull, cold and full of floors. Whichever way they walked up to the elevator just ahead, passing the large two stairs that lead to the first floor. The meeting room was location on the fifth floor so by taking the glass elevator he and Colt made their way up. Not a word was said to each other during the ride but when they reached the floor they filed into the meeting room that was like a proper government debate room. Tables and benches forming almost a square from the bottom and expanding out and up to the top. Privates sat at the top, captain's in the middle, lieutenant's not far from the bottom and on the very bottom were the general's. At the very front were high blocks that sat the Director and his private men. Once everyone was seat The Director stood up. Dressed in the finest black suit known to man, white hair with fades of grey that showed his age. Dark eyes scanning the room.

"Eldian, the army, my finest men and among man. I welcome you all. Now I know you all must be wondering as to why I have called an immediate meeting this morning." He said looking around each and every member. "Last night I was received some interesting information from an individual employee. I have to admit this is the most interesting one I have every analysed. Observe." The Director seated and just as he sat the lights faded out and four square screens appear, one for each side. A piece of footage was played which made Zeke's heart stop. It was Eren and Pieck in the fields but what the footage had caught was Eren teleporting to Pieck. Everyone was taken aback by this kid. Zeke knew that Eren didn't do it on propose because he didn't know how to stop it. It just happened. This was great Eren was exposed and now he was in trouble. The screens faded and the lights came on.

"As you can see, this child must be exiled." Said the Director.

At this point Colt turned to Zeke and whispered. "That's your brother."

"I know." Zeke whispered back.

"We must banish this child, find him and exile him. Dismissed." That was the Director's final words.

This was bad. Zeke had to get to them before the army does. But, who would do this? Then in clicked. Nile. He spoke of this a few days ago, this was all him and Zeke spotted him from the opposite side, grinning like he was very pleased with himself. Zeke was in full rage. He left his seat angrily and made his way out of the building. He stormed out and demand a shofar to fetch his car. In doing so Zeke pulled out his phone and called the house.

"Hello, Mrs Yeager speaking." It was his mother sounding happy where as now that was to change.

"Mother, get Eren out!" he said hastily as his eyes scanned the privates suiting up and gearing up the cars, his heart was racing more and more.

"What, what's going on?" she now sounded worried.

"They know. They know about Eren. Nile recorded Eren and Pieck in the fields."

"What?!"

"Mother, Eren warped and he didn't know he did it. That footage was just shown to the Director and now in front of us. Mother get him out. The whole Eldian is looking for him, they're getting ready now."

"Zeke I…"

"Wake him up, evacuate. Move now!" he almost screamed.

Just as he got off the phone his car was pulled up. Zeke snatch the keys and his car and hastily drove away from the house. This was great Eren was exposed his family was in danger and what's worse is Pieck was heavily pregnant, she couldn't move let alone afford to be in shock if they come barging in. He had to get back to the house and help get Eren out. He didn't care about the traffic he only beeped them out of the way as he drove faster and faster. When he reached the house he saw his mother rushing out over to him.

"No time to explain. Get him in the car." He rushed over to the house to see his brother sat on the steps with Pieck comforting him. He was fully dressed as if ready to go out. "Eren get in the car." Zeke said out of anger.

"Zeke, slow down for a second." Said his mother coming up behind him.

"Not right now." He said turning to her.

"Zeke, Eren's in shock he's not moving and if you listen he's saying something I can't make out." Said Pieck looking at Zeke who was now looking at her, her hand smoothly rubbing Eren's back. She was right he was mumbling something, something that wasn't English. Zeke sighed.

"Look we don't have time. If they find Eren they send him away. The whole of Eldian is out there right now looking for him. If they come here they could kill us and I don't want you, Pieck, going into shock. Now Eren will you get in the car!" suddenly Eren lifted his head but something was wrong, really wrong. His eyes, his lovely sea green eyes were now glowing fiercely gold.

"Eren?" Zeke asked him but he was unresponsive.

Eren's brows knitted together and a vase from the living room was burst into flames with such force scaring the family as Grisha rushed to extinguish the flames.

"Eren!" his mother screamed and the father came rushing back.

"What's going on?" he asked.

Zeke wasn't going to wait around for much longer. He grabbed Eren's wrist and pulled him from the stairs with force. Other object was set a light but he didn't care. He had to get Eren out and out of harm's way. He threw him in the back of his car and turned to get in the driver's seat but was stopped by his father.

"You'll come back right?" he asked worryingly.

"Yeah, I'll keep him safe until they think he's already gone. Then we'll come back." Zeke smiled slightly before getting into the car and hastily driving off leaving the family behind.

Eldian was a large place so he drove to the other side, there would be less privates that way but Eren was still in shock. He kept playing with the radio with this freaky power he didn't know he could control but at least it kept him quiet. The drive would be long but running away was taking a while because the day went fast hiding away from Eldian. He slammed the breaks hard as the road ahead was blocked by privates and their cars. Great he couldn't get past and there was no way he turn back now but he was pretty sure that Eren had hit the back of his seat.

"Ouch, what's going on?" he heard Eren moan.

"It's ok, you're gonna be ok." Zeke tried to calm him.

"I was in the house before, how come I'm in your car?" Eren was beginning to freak out.

"Eren, calm down. You went freaky and burned things, even messing with my radio but I need you to stay calm." Zeke almost pleaded.

"I can't believe this, I can't believe this."

"Eren please don't freak out, I'm here."

"I'm gonna get caught, sent away, killed."

Zeke looked at Eren through his rear-view mirror to see him freaking out.

"Eren no, you keep this up someone will see you."

"I can't take this. I'm uncomfortable here."

"Eren." Before Zeke could say anything else he spotted and the private was coming over to his car.

This was fantastic, Eren was freaking out and now a private was coming over, this was the end for sure.

"Eren please…"

"I can't take this!" Eren shouted and then reached for the car door. He pushed it opened and ran out into the streets.

"Eren!" Zeke yelled after him but Eren didn't stop. He just kept on running.

"There he is, take him." He heard the private shout and a whole group chased after him.

"I'm breaking my promise." Zeke said before calmly getting out of the car.

Once he got out of the car he heard a chuckle from behind. Zeke turned to see his rival with the Director. This just got better and better.

"Lieutenant Zeke Yeager." Said the Director. "A man in my unit taking the young boy under protection."

"Sir, I'm not gonna sit by and watch you harm my family." Zeke spoke firmly.

"Oh, that was your brother, shame. When a family member betrays you by being born with such hideous abilities." The Director smirked.

"Eren never hurt anyone. In fact he doesn't know who to use it." Zeke argued.

"All the more reason to cast him out. Face it Zeke, if you don't cast him out then I will. I'm giving you the chance to save your brother. Cast him out."

"What? You expect me to do that."

"Of course." The Director clicked his finger and Nile walked up to Zeke and then held out a large hand gun. Zeke wasn't about to take it.

"Cast him out Zeke, cast him otherwise nothing good would come to your family. Of course you're near wife wouldn't want to give birth to a child unworthy. It's him or you child, Zeke."

Zeke was stuck for a decision.

Eren had hidden behind a market stall until it was quiet. When it was clear he crawled out, looking both ways before running off again. He ran through the streets until he was spotted. Private's chasing after him until Eren looked behind, his eyes glowed and he clicked his fingers, setting the men alight. He stopped to admire his attack. He couldn't believe how he worked it. He finally knew how to use his powers. But when he turned back round he spotted his brother standing there. Both now alone.

"Zeke?"

"I asked you to stay in the car. Is it that hard for you to understand a safe way of helping you?"

"Bro, I freaked. I can't deal with these situations."

"But what you just did, was that not dealing with it. Eren you're an outcast now." It pained him to say it and it pained him even more when Eren gave him the fear in his eyes, pain on his face.

"Zeke?"

"There's no saving you now." Said Zeke as he lifted the gun to his brother, aiming for his head.

"What?" Eren questioned taking a few steps back.

"I'm sorry I can't protect you. This is the only way to save you. Eren this gun is loaded and ready. If you don't leave I have no choice but to….to end you." He never dreamed of saying those words to his younger brother. If their family was here now….

"Please don't do this." Eren begged but Zeke couldn't, the choice he was given….he just couldn't.

"I'm sorry. I'll walk you to the gate…" He just couldn't do this. But shock horror - it did.

Eren had turned round and silently walked towards the gate with Zeke following, still holding the gun at him. The walk was silent but when they got there Eren didn't turn but only let a small tear fall from his eyes. Deep down he knew Zeke was crying too.

"Don't worry, maybe it's better this way, Lieutenant Zeke Yeager."

"Eren, I…" no words would come out of his mouth from this point.

"Save it. I don't have a family anymore. Your protection now means nothing to me. So this is the end. Goodbye." Eren said knowing how hurt his brother was. But sadly this was the last straw and Eren took it. He took it before Zeke could say another word. Eren had walked through the gates of the Eldian Kingdom. Zeke tried to hold up but he couldn't he dropped the gun and hung his head. After he let out a cry he silently turned to see Nile and the Director standing there with slight grins.

"Well done, Lieutenant. You knew it would come to this." The Director nodded. "If you think about it. Your brother is now safe from the city."

Zeke held in a cry before looking of to see Eren still walking the empty road. This image had destroyed his life.

Rain was quick to fall from the dark sky but Eren still kept on walking. He did care now that was out of the city with no idea on where to go but what he did know was that he was hungry. His stomach was the only sound he could hear. He didn't even know how far he'd been walking but when he reached dipped bridge covered by water he just knew that outcasts were beyond this point. His father had told him about that. The reason they covered it with water was so the outcasts were separated from the city. Eren just sighed and counted on his warp to get him across. On the other side he continued walking until he reach a huge brick wall that looking like it was protecting something. Huge metal doors at the front and two huge statues both were of swords. "Is this were the outcasts live?" he wondered to himself as he examined the place if this really were the members of the outcasts. Eren wondered if they were nice people and there were any kids his age.

Would he like them?

Well there was only one way for Eren to find out. He walked closer to the door and reached his hand out to try and touch the metal.

"Who are you?"

Eren suddenly jumped back from this new voice. He looked to see a boy standing not far from him. He now leaning his back on the right statue and hands in his pockets. This boy had black under-cut hair and dull grey eyes. His body wore a thin white shirt, beige clam-diggers, and brown boots and topped with a green jacket wrapped round his thin waist. This boy looked a year younger than him and was slightly smaller than him too. He watched as the boy smiled and got off the statue to face him.
"You just been outcast?" he asked him but Eren wouldn't speak. "What's wrong? I don't bite." The boy giggled and carefully stepped forwards to him and stopped when he was close enough so that Eren couldn't retreat. "My name's Levi." He watched the confusion in Eren's face but only giggled. "You know, I was outcast two years ago." Eren looked at him with shock. "It's a hard life, my parents had not long been killed in a car accident and the Director didn't make it easy for me either. What about you? You were just sent away, right? What happened?" Eren didn't respond.

"I know, too soon. Don't worry you'll be fine here. Pixis looks after each and every one of us. He makes us all family."

"F-Family?" Eren finally spoke.

"So you do have a voice." Levi chuckled. "Of course, he does. He's an outcast to from the Director's generation."

"What?" Eren asked but Levi chuckle again.

"Well, you're never gonna know unless you meet him." Levi stated taking Eren's wrist and pulling him over to the doors. Levi knocked and the doors opened, he pulled Eren in and into his new home. This was Eren's new life.

Eren's new life.
