The Unknown
Eren suddenly jolted up and was expelled from one of his frequent night terrors. This time, it was all his friends dying and he couldn't do anything about it.
When he awoke he noticed that Annie had moved, she was right next to him, but still asleep. Eren, who didn't know what to do just layed there gazing at her sleeping form. His eyes roamed over her body from his position, stopping only for a moment at the spot where she was shot just yesterday. Fortunately, being a Titan shifter has its merits, so she had completely healed. He directed his eyes to look up at her face. She was as beautiful as a flowering rose in a field of daisies. A warm smile grew on his face as the feeling of safety enveloped him.
He was content and felt at peace in that moment, something that seemed quite hard to feel back when he was still with the Survey Corps. He would have loved it if time had allowed for him to stay like that forever, but alas, Reiner had decided to rob him of this tranquil moment by waking up.
"Hey anyone awake?" Reiner said while rubbing his weary eyes.
Annie instantaneously awoke to see an incredibly embarrassed Eren looking at her, "There were no other open areas to sleep," Annie said as she hoped he would just take her lie and not point out that there were plenty of other places left open for her last night.
Eren quickly tried to change the subject and asked the rest of the group, "When are we gonna leave?"
Bertholdt, who was just waking up saw that everyone was standing up and getting ready to leave, he did the same and started packing his things. Thankfully, there were little possessions the group owned at the moment.
"So are we leaving right now, I mean, can't we stay and enjoy a bit of not running?" Eren asked putting a hand behind his head. He was met with a lot of weird looks.
"I'm guessing you guys haven't heard the phrase, 'stop and smell the roses'? Well it means, have you guys ever settled down before?" Eren exclaimed.
"Since we were kids, we have been on missions to defend Valhalla. Thus, we never obtained the time to simply settle down and live by normal standards, " Annie said as she darted her view to the side, where no one could see her face.
Eren went silent, he felt insensitive to the fact that they hadn't done anything for themselves, well- before they got inside the walls. He wanted to feel what they felt, but he just couldn't.
Once they left the vicinity of the old building, they followed a road that lead to another nearby civilization.
Once they got to the small village, they made way to the market as quietly as possible as to not attract any unwanted attention.
Annie had wasted no time in wearing her trademark cold, empty, and dark look. Reiner looked quite happy and walked in front of the group, looking like a big brother directing his friends and siblings ahead. Bertholdt on the other hand, kept lookout for the whole group as they walked further into the market area. He was in the back of their small group, right behind Eren. Eren was simply following them, with nothing else to do or say.
As they walked, Bertholdt seemed to have noticed something in the distance. A liquor store.
Bertholdt hurried to catch up to Reiner in the front and stopped them for a moment with a lift of his hand. Then, he walked off to enter the store.
After a couple of minutes, he walked out with something under his jacket, and a nervous smile on his face.
Annie, being the smart person she was, had already figured out what Bertholdt had intended to do when he stopped the group on the road and threw a look at the liquor store just a few steps ahead of them. Upon seeing Bertholdt's exit from the store, Eren's mind plunged him into a past memory when Bertholdt took out the bottle he had hidden under his jacket. He remembers when he was on the wall with Dot Pixis, when he got to share the 'special bottle' he had.
Eren walked over to Bertholdt and grabbed the bottle of alcohol and walked back to the rest of the gang. Eren had a small sad smile as he took a sip of the liquid after popping open the top.
Taking those few peaceful moments away from Eren and Bertholdt, Annie and Reiner urged for them to continue along their way. They did not need anyone tailing them to catch up and cause problems once again.
Following their exit of the small village, they came to an open field that was long and flat met by a dark, thick forest a couple miles out. They continued on their way by passing through the field and was about to enter the forest, but then they saw him, Levi. The ace Scout.
He was coming to take them down.
He was barreling towards them with his 3DMG, blades in hand, ready to take them down.
Instinctively, Annie struck out the blade in her ring, ready to shift. Eren held up his hand to his mouth and Reiner took a dagger from his boot and placed it against his palm. Leaving Bertholdt on his own, they started running in three different directions away from the forest and back into the field, knowing that the explosions from their transformation and their bodies would require space apart from one another.
They were ready for an all out battle against Levi when all of a sudden, what seemed to be about fifty scouts came from the shadows of the forest and started reeling towards their small group. Eren took pride in the fact that so many scouts were sent after them.
Eren, Annie, and Reiner all simultaneously shifted, thus becoming three of the four notorious titans: The Rouge Titan, The Female Titan, and The Armoured Titan. Meanwhile, Bertholdt did his best to stand ground against the three coinciding blasts coming from the directions where the shifts occurred whilst also moving away to hide in the forest seeing as how all of the scouts had already left to the open field instead.
The three Titans quickly walked back to their previous location. They all stood next to each other. Each paralleled each other, setting their feet behind them, put one fist up, and made a mad dash towards the Scouts.
Eren noticed a particular face in the giant crowd, Mikasa. She was staring with her cold eyes that could stop a savage titan in its tracks.
He was having second thoughts about his actions and how he left his friends and family, but when he thought of the word "family", he just saw his father. At once, he shook the idea out of his head.
This isn't the time for that.
He had a job to do, and whether he liked it or not, it was too late to turn back.
From inside the hot flesh-prison that his Titan's neck posed as, Eren took a deep breath and focused on what was in front of him through the large green eyes of his Titan form, the scouts were coming straight at them.
He just stopped, straight in mid-run and quickly grabbed the Female Titan's arm while she was still in his range before she ran any further, causing her to nearly trip and fall from the sudden stop in her high-paced run.
She craned her neck to look at him with anger and bewilderment clearly evident on her face.
He stared at her with dark and empty eyes that seemed to have somehow changed to an onyx black color, it looked as if he had no soul and that he had lost all emotion.
Eren stared deep into the Female Titan's eye- Annie's eyes, and he saw… feeling… emotion.
His eyes started to turn back to the emerald green they originally were, but as they were coming back, so did tears.
Tears that weren't from sadness nor from happiness. They were from rage.
Rage that stemmed from the people, from the people who used him as a mere object as if he had no will or personal purpose, how they terrorized him, they didn't care about him. They just wanted the titan in him, they only saw him as a tool on their belt…
They wanted the Titan that he could become…
Then they were gonna get it.
