Frieda couldn't keep track of how much time has passed since Helmut Fritz was freed from that prison down below, for she had fallen asleep next to her horse after a while of waiting for the storm out.

Before she knew it, she felt herself slowly, groggily, waking herself up, opening her eyes to see herself still in the ruins. She looked at whatever she was lying on and smiled upon seeing the familiar sight of her white stallion lying right beside her, her head lying on its stomach as it breathes in and out. She then turned to the other horse; Uri's chestnut-colored horse lying nearby.

Then, she heard another snore coming from her arms. She looked down, and she grew a warm smile upon seeing baby Helmut Fritz, snoring against her like a little angel. Frieda could look at him forever, and never get tired of seeing such a beautiful face resting on her chest. It reminded her so much of her beloved half-sister…

Historia Reiss…

Suddenly, Frieda remembered the face of the little girl. She knew exactly what became of her.

Historia Reiss was born an illegitimate child of her father, Rod Reiss, and his mistress, Alma. No one else in the family knew this but herself. And she thought it was disgusting to not only have the man that gave her life cheating on her own mother, and his wife, but he didn't really care about how Alma treated her daughter. Frieda felt a certain sense of responsibility towards this girl and made a vow to care for her as much as she could.

And for the first four years of Historia's life, Frieda had been by her side, teaching her how to walk, read, write, and even how to ride on a horse. However, Frieda would've preferred to take her outside of the barn to have her live a more…luxurious life with her. However, due to Historia's illegitimate status…there's a chance that someone will kill her due to the fact that her mere existence is a plague upon the Reiss family. So, she was forced to stay there, and there was nothing she could've done about it.

Now though…it looks like Helmut might suffer the same fate. HE inherited the Founding Titan's power…NO ONE can have this outside of the family. Without it…things will fall apart in the family…as well as in the interior of the walls.

But if she were to turn him in now, then Uri's sacrifice will be meaningless, and this visit to the temple will be all for naught. Frieda then remembered what Uri said about Lady Ymir.

"Please, Frieda…the Founding Titan brought me here to release Helmut Fritz, fourth child and only son of our Goddess, Lady Ymir, from his eternal prison. It's what she wants…"

Frieda took in a deep breath and sighed in confusion. "I am in such a big predicament right now…" she said to herself, shaking her head with a chuckle. She then looked towards the direction that the horses came from, and noticed that there was not a sound of rough winds blowing into the ruins.

"Hm, it sounds like the wind has softened." She said to herself, as she gently began to stand up and walked towards the entrance of the ruins. Baby Helmut stirred in her arms, but he remained content being there. Frieda took a quick glance at Helmut, and she smiled warmly on seeing his beautiful face snuggled up against her chest. She quickly gave him a soft, yet loving kiss on the forehead, then on both of his cheeks, which made Helmut smile softly.

Eventually, Frieda arrived at the entrance…and she lets out a small gasp of shock and relief; the snowstorm had finally passed, but there was a lot of snow covering the ruins and the ground.

"T-There must be around five to six inches of snow!" Frieda thought to herself in awe. The sight was very beautiful in her eyes, and she couldn't help but smile. However, the memory of her uncle's body still inside the ruins soured her mood. She sighed to herself as she looked outside, and then back into the tunnels.

"I can't leave my uncle to rot…but I don't have anything to bury him with…" She thought to herself before she decided on what she has to do. Soon, she walked back inside the ruins, deciding to wait until the snow melts enough for her and the horses to traverse.

A couple of hours went by, and the snow had begun to melt around this time. Frieda could now leave the cursed ruins behind her. Soon, she came back outside, and after a brief inspection, nodded in satisfaction, before she walked back inside. Frieda then approached the horses, with baby Helmut still in her arms. She took one last look at the tunnels, where her uncle's body was, still lying on the cold floor. Frieda closed her eyes and lets out a small whimper, gritting her teeth in sorrow. She felt immense guilt building up in her body. Even though this is what Uri wanted, Frieda couldn't bear the thought of losing her uncle; the only one in the family who truly cared for her, while her actual father, Rod Reiss…well, wasn't present for the majority of her time.

"I'm sorry…uncle.…" she said, as she looked down at Helmut, who was beginning to wake up, looking at her with curious eyes. Frieda noticed them, and she gave a saddened smile, hoping that Helmut wouldn't be too concerned for her. Helmut just smiled and giggled, hands reaching out towards her. Frieda couldn't hold it in any longer; she gently pulled Helmut close to her, and hugged the baby, crying softly to herself as she rocked Helmut side to side. Helmut sensed that something is wrong with her, and he began to whimper for her, tiny hands grasping her shirt.

Frieda saw this, and she kissed him on the forehead. "It's okay. It's okay, baby. We're getting out of here, right now." She cooed softly into his ear, holding him close. Helmut just continued to whimper some more, but it did eventually calm down.

After minutes of comforting, Frieda looked down at Helmut, who still had tears running down from his eyes. Frieda gently wiped them away, before she looked at her horses. They were grooming one another and didn't seem to pay any attention to what they were doing earlier. Frieda then approached them and grabbed a rope from her personal horse, making it stand up. She then looked at the horse in the eyes.

"We've gotta go." She ordered, before she gently placed Helmut on the table, so she can tie the rope of Uri's horse to her own so that both of them will be brought back.

Frieda then took Helmut back into her arms, and after a while of struggling to get on her horse (she's not tall enough to climb up the horse at this time), she began to guide the horse through the tunnels, and to the outside world once more. The horses felt it easier to stay outside now, as they were able to trot out of the ruins, and through the path. The whole time, Frieda was looking down at baby Helmut. Seeing the adorable smile on his face made Frieda's heart melt with warmth. Then, as she hugged him gently, she remembered something;

By this point, her family is wondering where they are! If she comes back with Uri gone, and Helmut in her arms…

"Oh no! I didn't think of that!" she thought to herself as she shook her head, placing her forehead on Helmut's left side of the face as she shook her head, muttering incoherent words to herself as she frowned in disappointment and worry of what she has to do next.

Frieda tried to think of an idea as to do now. However, she couldn't think of an idea. "Oh no…what am I going to do? Where can I hide Helmut? I can't trust him to be with anyone else. I CERTAINLY cannot bring him back to the palace. They'll get too suspicious…the only other option is…" she thought to herself as an idea finally came into her mind.

The estate where her half-sister, Historia Reiss is…

Frieda became glum; this was the only place she knew that would make him hidden from the outside world. But there is a risk of her grandparents, who also owned the farm Historia lives in, might end up rejecting Helmut, since they already have their hands full with running the farm, and having another child to watch over, in addition to Historia, would make things even more complicated. But the estate was all she had…

With a sigh; she held Helmut closed to her as she gently kicked the side of her horse, enticing it to trot forward. "I am going to take you to a quiet place, baby. Someone that I know and love will take great care of you while I'm back home." She said to him. Baby Helmut looked at her and simply smiled at her, not at all understanding what she just said. Frieda just chuckled at his innocence and held onto him as the horses trotted on.

Frieda traveled far across the land as she headed north. The estate is owned by her family located in Northern Wall Rose. Occasionally, Helmut would let out a whine of hunger. Frieda, of course, had no food to give to the newborn. So she figured that she found to find a store that sells baby formula. Money wasn't a problem…it's the TIME it would take to get to one that worries her. In fact, the more she waited, the more Helmut began to cry.

Eventually, Frieda couldn't take it anyone, and even her horses seem to purr in irritation. She pondered on what to do, until an idea finally into her mind.

Breastfeeding…

Frieda was not comfortable with this; she didn't like to expose her breasts and nipples out in the public eye. But, since she's in the middle of the countryside, with only a few houses visible nearby and in the distance, there won't be too many witnesses.

With a sigh, Frieda adjusted the baby, and with a freer hand, she unbuttons the upper half of her shirt, removing the left side of the bra, and exposed her breast. Baby Helmut stopped crying and looks in awe at the breast. "Just suck on it, Helmut. It'll keep you happy for now." She said before she winced inwardly. "That sounded MUCH better in my head." She thought to herself as Helmut took the offer. Frieda exhaled through her nose, just happy that Helmut was finally content for now. That is until,

"Are you that baby's mommy?" a voice peeped out from behind. Frieda gasped and turned in the direction of the noise; it was from a little girl, with black hair, no older than six. She was just in a nearby house's front yard, playing with her dolls when she had noticed Frieda walking past her house.

Freida and the girl looked at each other, staring at one another awkwardly while Helmut just continued breastfeeding. Wanting to get out of there quickly, Frieda chuckled nervously. "U-Um…yes?" she said. The girl then raised a brow, not looking very convinced. Frieda sighed in frustration and pointed to her with an immediate glare. "YOU did not see ANYTHING. Got that?!" she asked firmly. The girl flinched back and nodded, before she ran away in fear, audibly whimpering. Frieda then sighed in relief, before she looked at Baby Helmut. Helmut looked back at her, and through the breast, he giggled. Frieda giggled back as she caressed his cheek. "That time, it was an emergency; don't be like that to other kids." She said softly. Helmut just hummed in content. Frieda just giggled as she continued onwards.

Hours went by, and dusk has begun to settle on the land. Frieda was having a bit of trouble concealing her identity from the public. Even though the Reiss family's real identity as Royalty in the walls, they are still at risk from rivals and criminals who are aware of their identities and wish to exploit it for their gain. It was especially nerve-wracking when she traversed through Orvud District.

In the district, Frieda had to cover herself in a hood covering her face, and Helmut covered up in the cape. There were only a few people out right now due to the previous blizzard and time of day, but the few guest guests that WERE out at this time looked at her; some with intrigue, others with indifference. Frieda gritted her teeth in fear. However, for the most part, she seemed to be safe enough for now. That is until she arrived at the gate leading into Wall Rose when someone called to her.

"Hey there." It sounded like it came from a man. Frieda looked back, and her eyes grew in size upon seeing a man in his late 40s, with short brown hair, a long beard, and carrying a beer bottle. Frieda gulped and looked around to see if there is anyone nearby. Sadly, the only people that were at the gate entrance are Frieda, Helmut, and the man.

Frieda feigned politeness as she looked at the man, who was walking to her. "Um, may I help you, sir?" she asked, not interested in talking to this man, where there is a baby that has a home to get to. The man smirked, and Frieda feared what this crazy man would do. The man eventually arrived next to her horse and crossed his arms.

"What's a young lady like you doing out here so late? And especially after a terrible blizzard?" he asked. Frieda chuckled as she looked at Helmut, who was feeling uneasy at this man's appearance. She plucked up courage and looked at the man. "I was just…heading home." She said. The man looked at her, still with that smirk. "Oh, well then. Before you leave, you wouldn't mind if you would spare some change?" he asked, extending his hand out. Frieda looked at him and furrowed her brows. "You're not planning on sexually harassing me, aren't you?" she asked, rather bluntly. The man only just laughed, and Frieda held Helmut tightly.

"Oh, don't be like that, young lass. I just want some money. Come on. Out of good faith, will ya?" he asked, though the tone was not sincere. Frieda picked up on this and shook her head. "Sorry, sir. But, I don't have any money. Now, if you don't mind, I've got to get going. My parents are probably worried sick about me." She insisted, and she guided the horse forward. However, she was stopped when the man grabbed the handle. Frieda gasped slightly and turned to look down at him with a glare.

"Sir. Let go of my horse." She demanded. The man chuckled, and then he turns to the back and lets out a whistle. Immediately, several other men came out of the darkness, and Frieda soon found herself surrounded by twenty homeless people. And they were out for blood. Frieda held Helmut close to her as panic began to swell up inside of her. Instinctively, she looked around beyond the group, shouting, "Help! Someone, help us!"

This made the other men laugh, while Helmut became fussy from all the shouting. One of the men noticed that Frieda was carrying Helmut, and approached her, snagging the baby away from her arms. Frieda shouted in a panic, and got off her horse, before lunging towards the man. "Hey! Give me back my baby boy!" she shouted. However, she was grabbed by two of the larger men. All the while, Helmut was crying his eyes out, being in unfamiliar arms. Frieda struggled with all her might, but she was simply too weak to free herself from the grasp of the men.

Then, the first man that approached her earlier, approached her again. This time, he was carrying a large knife. He held it close to Frieda's throat, and Frieda whimpered. "We HAD to do this the hard way, now. All I was asking for was some change so that my friends and I came live to fight another day. But instead, you had to refuse." He growled out, leaning in closer to her face, his cold breath breezing against her fair skin. Frieda looked at him in fear and nodded.

"O-Okay. I-I'll tell you where I have the m-money. Just, please don't take away my baby. Please…" she whimpered, tears streaming down from her eyes. The leader smirked in apparent satisfaction, as he stared at her. "Which bag? Tell us, and I'll hand the baby back to you." He said. Frieda nodded, as she gestured her head to one of the bags on Uri's horse.

"T-They're on the left side of that horse. T-Take as many as you want!" she said. The man nodded before he looked at two more men, who nodded as well. Then, they approached the horse and began to inspect the bags hanging around. Frieda, however, was not looking at the men around her horse. Instead, she was looking at Helmut, who was looking at her with a pleading gaze. Frieda looked back sorrowfully. "I'm sorry, Helmut. I'm so sorry…" she thought as more tears continued streaming down from her eyes.

Eventually, the other men returned with a ton of money from the bags. The leader looked at them, and he cheered in delight. "Whoopie! We've got ourselves a jackpot, boys! This girl right here," he said before he turned to Frieda. "is one of the nobles from further inland!" he declared. The others murmured in delight; happy that they have caught one of the nobles. Frieda looked on in horror, while Helmut began to whimper some more. "Please, just let me and my baby go. W-We gave you everything you wanted; please…" she whimpered, before she looked down, breaking down into a sob. The gang looked at her, and then at the baby, who was beginning to cry out again, reaching out to Frieda. The leader crossed his arms and smirked.

"Alright. I'm a man of my words. You're free to go, along with your baby." He said. Frieda, immediately, shot her head up in delight, and she began to laugh. "Oh, thank you. Thank you, so much!" she said, as she got up wobbly. The leader looked at the man holding the baby, and he gestured his head towards Frieda. The man, while reluctant, nodded as he walked over to Frieda.

"Here's your broken condom mishap." He declared as he handed Helmut over. Frieda, without hesitation, took Helmut back into her arms, and she just sobbed into the side of his head, feeling relief wash up all over her body. The robbers just looked on indifferently, before the leader rounded up all of his men. "Alright, let's leave these two alone." He instructed, before he went past Frieda and Helmut, the entire gang soon disappearing back into the alleyways.

Frieda was left all by herself at the time, but she didn't care. Helmut was back in her arms, and she was more than happy about that. Frieda then pulled back, and she and Helmut made eye contact, both of their eyes blood-red from all the crying. They smiled, as she soon stood back up. "Let's try and forget about that, and head to the district." She said before she got back onto her horse, and with zeal, she guided the horses forward, back into Wall Rose territory.

It was almost dark later on, but…at LAST; Frieda made it to the estate. She could see fewer farmers out in the open than they would be otherwise. These farmers were probably finishing up their chores and clearing out the snow for the night before their long, deserved rest. Frieda could see them looking at her, and they smiled at her, giving her greetings and courtesy gestures. Frieda smiled; she has always had a reputation here in this estate. Her family owns this estate, and whenever she arrives to check up on Historia, the farmers would always be happy to see her thanks to her beauty and kindness.

Eventually, Frieda stopped at the house that housed her grandparents-in-law, and by extension, where Historia is living. She stopped her horses near the front gates, and hopped down, gently carrying Helmut with her to the front door. Helmut cooed at her, and Frieda looked down at him with a smile. Once she stopped at the front door, she gave several knocks on the door. "They should still be awake by now, finishing up their last chores. Hope they answer on time…if at all." Frieda thought to herself as she then looked back down at Helmut.

"So there, little fella. This, right here," she began, gesturing the barn, and then the entire farm fields, before looking at Helmut. Helmut stopped cooing, raising a brow in confusion. Frieda sighed through her nose and cupped his cheek gently. "Sweetie…I can't take you back to where I live. My family…they would not like you; I'll leave it at that." She explained. Helmut tilted his head in confusion. But before Frieda could further her explanation, the front door finally opened, and there were two elderly people, possibly in their early 70s. They looked at Frieda, and they smiled warmly.

"Frieda, my darling. Where were you?" asked the Grandmother, who hugged her. The Grandfather also took a closer look at Frieda. "When we got the news that you and your uncle Uri disappeared in that dreadful blizzard, your whole family and the both of us grew worried sick!" he stated as he patted Frieda on the back. Then, he noticed that there was a baby in Frieda's arms. He raised a brow. "Um…Frieda, where did you get this baby?" he asked. Frieda looked down, and saw Helmut, looking at her with a smile on his face. Freida looked at them and sighed through her nose.

"It's…it's a long story…" she said, before she inhaled through her nose, trying to not get snot running down. The grandparents took note of this, and they gestured her inside to get herself settled in for the night.

During her stay, Frieda told the grandparents everything that she could. Of course, she couldn't tell them certain parts of the real stories; the parts where Uri died to free Helmut from his eternal prison, and now the boy posses the Founding Titan. So, she improvised;

Instead, she told them that during her walk back, they found an infant lying in the streets of Orvud. But just as they were about to rescue him, they were ambushed by several armed men. And as Uri tries to defend Frieda and the infant, who was named Helmut Fritz, he was shot, and all of his possessions were taken in the process. The grandparents looked at her in sorrow, and they approached her with a hug. Frieda leaned into the embrace, with tears streaming down.

"What's going on?" asked a young voice. Frieda and the grandparents looked in the direction of the noise, and she smiled upon seeing a familiar face with fair skin, bright blue eyes, and long blonde hair tied to a low ponytail.

This was her half-sister, Historia Reiss.

Historia and Freida looked at one another, and they smiled. Historia giggled excitedly as she sped over to her. "Hi, Frieda!" she cheered once she got close to her before she froze upon seeing a baby in Frieda's arms. Frieda noticed this and giggled.

"Historia, I would like you to meet my new friend; Helmut." She said as she moved Helmut forward to Historia. She made sure not to let them know of Helmut's last name, as it sounded like the false king. Otherwise, people might get some sinister ideas about him…

Historia looked at him, and for a moment, the two of them locked eye contact. Historia fiddled with her own hair as she looked at Helmut.

Then, Helmut lets out another squeak, as he smiled and reached out to her. Historia flinched back, not expecting the baby to react like that. Frieda giggled. "It's okay, Historia. He likes you." She assured.

Historia looked at her with uncertainty, but she then looked back down at Helmut anyways and tried to give a friendly smile as she reached her hands out towards Helmut's cheeks. Frieda chuckled as Helmut leaned into the touch, already growing attached to the new girl.

A low humming sound got the girls' attention, and they turned their heads back to the grandparents. The grandfather looked at his wife, and then to Frieda. "Why don't you stay here for the night? First thing in the morning, we'll take you and the baby back to your home." He suggested. Immediately, Frieda panicked and shook his head.

"No! I c-can't!" she pleaded. The adults and Historia flinched. Frieda immediately calmed down and stuttered for a while. "I-I mean I can't t-take Helmut back! That's what I meant." She clarified. The grandparents looked at one another again, and then back at Frieda. "Why not?" asked the grandmother. Frieda looked at Helmut and sighed.

"I-It's my father. He's very protective over our family. If he finds out that Uri died for a baby…HE might try to kill him." She explained, caressing Helmut's head. The grandparents looked at her in sympathy; they have heard of Rod's tendencies to deal with situations involving him and his family. So, they looked back at the girls, and the grandfather asked, "Do you want Historia and the both of us to watch over the baby?" Frieda nodded with a smile.

"Yes! Yes, please!" she said excitedly. The grandparents nodded with a smile. "Good. Now, the both of you head upstairs. You will have to share the bedroom with Historia." The grandmother explained. Historia nodded happily.

"Of course! I don't mind!" she said as she took Frieda's arms. "Come on! Come on!" she said as she dragged Frieda. Frieda chuckled, but she said, "Historia! Calm down! You don't want to disturb Helmut now!" she said, as they walked upstairs.

Later on, Frieda and Historia were sitting on the same bed. The bed was pretty small, barely enough to fit Frieda inside. Historia was smiling happily as she was holding a happy Helmut in her arms. "This is great, Frieda! I'm going to be a big sister!" she declared softly as she held Helmut close to her. Frieda nodded with a giggle. "I know, Historia. I'm proud of you!" she replied as she caressed her cheek. Helmut looked at the two girls and laughed some more, cooing as he out to touch them. Historia's smile brightened, before she tickled the baby's side with her nose, making him laugh. Frieda watched the scene with a smile before she frowned. Historia, once she stops, noticed this, and tilted her head in confusion.

"What's wrong, Frieda?" she asked. Frieda looked at her, and then hugged her suddenly. "I love the both of you so much…" she said. Historia and Helmut looked at her, and the former hugged her back. "I love you too, Frieda." She said innocently with a smile. Frieda held onto the two of them for a while, before she pulled back, cupping Historia's cheek.

"Historia…I'm trusting you to watch over Helmut while I'm not here, okay? This is going to a BIG responsibility from here on out." She explained. Historia nodded. "It can't be THAT difficult, is it?" asked Historia. Frieda looked at her and just sighed, laughing again.

"You are very naïve…don't lose that, will you?" she asked. Historia tilted her head in genuine confusion. Frieda then dropped her smile. "But in all seriousness; it's VERY hard." She said. Historia chuckled a little bit, but she felt nervous already. "Oh…oh, boy…I already have chores to work on…I'm not sure that I'm going to looking forward to taking care of a baby boy, now." She explained. Frieda then ran her fingers through her hair. "Don't worry; Historia. Listen to me, sweetie…" she said. Historia looked up at her again. "What is it?" she asked. Frieda held her closely as she looked at her and Helmut simultaneously.

"Historia Reiss, you are far more special than anyone could ever predict. You are smart, sweet, and very beautiful. You also work very hard to get where you are. Sure, you may have been taunted by a lot of the farmers. However, you still press forward. YOU are an amazing little girl. And if you do all of that, plus all the hard work of the farm you have to do…then I'm sure you can take care of Helmut with little issue. And don't worry;" she said before she cupped her cheek. "I'll be coming over to visit you as often as I can. That way, I help you with Helmut, and even play with the both of you." She explained. Historia smiled, heart fluttering at the beautiful words, before she leaned in, nuzzling against Frieda's body. Helmut saw this and mimicked her actions. Frieda hugged both of them back.

"I love you, so much. Both of you are my world entirely. I don't know what I would do without you." She cooed, kissing Historia in the top of her head repeatedly. Historia and Frieda laughed softly as they remained in one another's embrace, enjoying the future they will share with Helmut Fritz.

Soon, the two of them eventually grew tired enough to get some sleep. Helmut was sandwiched between the both of them. Historia wrapping her arms around him, the little girl excited to have someone to care for. All the while, Frieda had her arms around the two children, holding them protectively.

Things will get quite eventful from here on out. Let's hope things go well for Helmut Fritz and the Reiss siblings.

AN: Hey everyone. superkoola here!

Unfortunately, Helmut Fritz himself will not be joining us for tonight. He's got some…homework to do…

*cuts to Helmut tied and gagged up to a chair, struggling in vain to get out*

So anyway, a quick explanation.

For a long time, I always wanted Helmut Fritz to be involved with the Reiss family. However, as mentioned before, I didn't know how to start them, whether to be with Historia or with another one of the main characters.

Anyways, so that's all I have to say. Hope you enjoy this, please be respectful to those who either did or did not, and stick around for more!

Update: Someone left some good critiques regarding this story, so I'm going back to change them up! Thanks JustUsingARandomName!
