"Hello everyone!" The mysterious voice speaks out.
"Hey it that weird person who brought us here!" Sasha shouts.
"I wonder where there talking from." Abel says while looking around.
"Hey whoever brought us here what do you want?" Erwin questions.
"You can just call me the host. Anyways I'm here to give you a break! You been watching a lot and you must be tried! Over their everyone has separate bed rooms and their is some food and water in the main area!" The host exclaims.
"Food!" Sasha shouts out. "I wonder what there could be."
"Wait is time passing outside right now?" Armin questions.
"Yea and after our rest will we return back?" Eren asks them.
"Time is not passing! And after your rest you will watch more!" The host tells them.
"That good that were not missing anything than." Nile states.
"Yea but how is that even possible?" Floch asks.
"When will we return back?" Pyxis asks.
"Yea and how did you even do this?" Levi questions them.
"I will answer no more questions now get some rest!"
"Tch of course you won't." Levi says in annoyance.
"This gives us a good opportunity to go through everything we learned." Erwin says.
"Yes! I been waiting to be able to go through my notes and discuss them!" Hange shouts.
"Pyxis, Nile care to join us?" Mike asks.
"Sure thing." Pyxis says as he walks away and Nile nods.
"Hey you guys wanna hang out in someone room.!" Sasha asks them.
"Yea that sounds fun!" Connie shouts.
"No I'm tried." Annie responds.
"Come on it will be a good opportunity to talk with each other about everything." Armin tells her.
"Yea lets go Annie." Reiner tells her.
"I'm not staying for the whole time though." Mikasa says.
"Do you think the host is on our side." Bertholdt whispers to Reiner.
"It hard to tell but at least she didn't reveal our secret yet." Reiner says back.
"Ymir would you like to join us?" Historia hesitantly asks her.
"Better not. I can still feel everyone eye glaring at me so I'm going to my room." Ymir responds.
"Oh right.." Historia says sadly.
"But feel free to join them!" Ymir calls out to her as she leaves to her room. Historia smiles slightly then leaves with the rest of them.
In the warrior room they were all moving to their bed. "We learned some valuable stuff about the enemy." Magath states.
"Yea and who we have to go after." Zeke adds.
"Are we still attacking paradis after this?" Colt whispers to himself but Piecks hears.
"Colt don't say that in front of the war chief or Magath." She tells him. "I agree it doesn't seem right, their no devils." She then lets out a sigh.
"I can't believe Marley lied to us." Udo says as he starts getting angry.
"Yea they convinced us everyone there was devils." Zofia sighs.
"But their just people. People we harmed." Gabi says softly as she heads to her room.
"I don't know how I feel about become a warrior anymore." Falco whispers.
In another timeline the alliance were gathered together. Magath just apologised to them and they were planning on how to get to the flying boat without killing their friends. As they all blink they reopen their eyes inside a room. Their were a few chairs and a giant black screen staring at them.
"What the hell?" Connie shouts.
"Where are we?" Gabi questions.
"How did we get here?" Hange asks.
"Hello everyone! I am the one who brought you here today!" The host explains.
"Who are you?" Pieck asks them.
"Yea and how did you even bring us here." Jean says.
"I brought you here to be watching your past moments!"
"What?" Mikasa says.
"How is that possible and why would we do that?" Armin questions.
"We need to go back. The rumbling it-" Hange says but gets cut off.
"Time is not moving while your here. Everything is frozen. Now grab some food and take a seat. We'll start once everyone seated." The host tells them. Levi looks for an exist but doesn't find one.
"This could be bad." He groans.
"Why would we want to watch our past?" Reiner questions.
"Well this does give us an opportunity to talk about how were going to stop the rumbling and how we can get the Azumabito's to help us with the flying boat." Magath states.
"I guess but I'm still confused what going on here." Annie says.
"Hey what is that?" Armin asks as he points at the screen.
"That might be where were watching the past-" Onyankopon says.
"You actually believe we could watch the past?" Jean says to him as Falco sits down.
"Woah! These seats are comfortable!" Falco exclaims.
"Hm I must agree." Yelena says as she sits down.
"Let sit down and discuss about how we can stop the rumbling." Hange says as moves to sit down "Holy they are!" Everyone then moves to sit down. Suddenly as they sit down the screen lights up.
"This may be a special night, but we don't need the public knowing our plans." Harold explains.
Everyone eyes light up and widen a bit as the screen turns on.
"What the-" Falco says in surprise.
"What is this?" Onyankopon says.
"So, behave like the disciplined soldiers you are." Meat is then shown on the table.
"What? No way. Is that..? It is." Connie says in shock while sitting next to Sasha.
"Woah it me!" Connie exclaims but his face darkens when he see's Sasha.
"You look so young!" Falco says in amazement,
"So were really watching the past." Levi says.
"When was this?" Reiner questions.
"The night the retake wall Maria." Armin says. He had a faint smile as he remember good but painful memories.
"It will be hard to discuss what we need to while this is playing." Hange states. "I guess it will be nice to watch."
"It's meat." Connie continues.
"Am I dreaming?" Sasha says as she puts her hands to her head.
"Sasha..." Jean says sadly as Connie eyes start tearing up. Gabi bites her tongue and looks down in shame.
"Did you guys never get meat?" Yelena asks them.
"No we barely ever ate it." Mikasa responds.
"All right. Here's to re-taking of Wall Maria. A toast!" He says as he raises his glass. Suddenly every starts freaking out "Huh? Wait!" He exclaims.
"Calm down! Everyone'll get some, okay?"
"Hey! A piece that big counts as two!"
"You're crazy!
"Well, I'm worth two of you in the battlefield, so I think I should get your portion." A scout yells.
"Like hell!"
Onyankopon lets out a chuckle as everyone watches the chaos.
"I can't believe the way there acting over a piece of meat." Magath says.
"Like Mikasa said we barely ever at meat so of course we acted crazy." Hange tells him.
"I still think it was a dumb idea to waste our money on meat." Levi says.
Sasha digs her teeth into the piece of meat. "What the hell do you think you're doing, potato girl? No way are we gonna let you pull this shit!"
"She always went crazy for food." Mikasa quietly says almost tearing up.
"Yea she would do anything for it." Jean says trying to form a smile.
"Look like she never changed." Annie says.
"I'm so sor-" Gabi tries to apologise but gets cut off by Connie.
"Don't just don't." He tells her as he tenses up. Gabi looks down and Pieck puts her hands on her shoulders in comfort. If we didn't have to attack Liberio we could still have moments like this. He thinks.
"Let be glad we can see memories of her." Armin tells him.
"Yea try and enjoy them, not be sad over them." Levi adds.
"Right. Sasha wouldn't want us to be sad." Connie whispers
"Drop the meat, Sasha. Come on, I really don't wanna have to kill you." Connie says with tears in his eyes and he strangles her.
"You were crying over that?" Yelena asks him.
"Well Sasha wasn't gonna share us any of the meat I didn't know what to do." Connie tells her.
"Really again this is over a piece of meat." Magath says.
"Nothing over powers to power of meat for Sasha." Armin jokes
"You can't eat the whole thing alone, you pig!" Jean screams as he snatches the meat out of her mouth.
Sasha screams as she bites onto Jean hands. Jean lets out a scream. "You're eating me! My hand! My hand!"
Jean then starts laughing, most of them are little surprised by this but he is then joined by Connie. "Aw man I sounded so scared." Jean says as he smiles.
"I can't believe she tried to eat you." Pieck says as she starts laughing.
"I can." Reiner says as he chuckles to himself.
"Good old Sasha." Hange says as she sadly smiles.
"Sasha! That meat is Jean! We don't eat our friends, okay?" Connie tells her.
"You called me meat?" Jean questions.
"Well yea to try and get her to stop!" Connie says back.
"What, does the scout regiment never get any meat? Really? That's just sad-" Marlo says.
"Yea it is." Annie says. She tempted to ask what happened to him but as she's see's everyone face she can already assume.
Sasha then punches him causing him to get a blood nose.
"Woah she just punched him!" Falco says in surprised.
"It looks like she isn't awake." Levi says.
"I'm pretty sure she wasn't she was just moving consciously." Armin tells him.
"That poor guy." Onyankopon states as he smiles.
"Connie, would you just knock her out already?" Mikasa says as Eren watches in shock.
"Wow you had longer hair." Pieck says.
"It used to be even longer." Armin tells her.
"Yea I cut it when I joined training." Mikasa says.
"You look beautiful!" Gabi compliments as Mikasa smiles back at her.
"Armin you also had longer hair back then." Magath says to him.
"I miss that hairstyle even though this one makes you look older." Hange tells him as she puts her hands on her shoulder.
Is that person there Eren Yeager or am I crazy? Falco thinks.
Sasha then punches Mikasa chest. "I'm trying!" Connie says as he struggles. "It's like her mind's shut down, but she's still moving somehow!"
"See like I said it the power of meat." Armin jokes again.
"If she has meat in her system she can do anything." Jean says.
"Hey, I think we've got casualties."
"Whose brilliant idea was it to serve meat, again?" Hange says with meat in her mouth.
"Hange your hair it longer!" Onyankopon says to her.
"Yep used to have it in a pony-tail." Hange tells him.
"You also had your other eye." Yelena states, damaging the mood.
"Well, I guess now we know what happens when we blow the whole food budget for two months on one night of celebrating."
Eren then ties her up with rope in her mouth. "That should do it." Eren says.
"Wait is that Eren Yeager?" Yelena asks them.
"Yea it is." Armin says sadly.
"He tied her up? Why would he do that?" Gabi says loudly.
"She was going to droll over our meat he had to." Jean tells her calmly as he looks at Eren.
"Wow he sounds and looks different." Onyankopon says as the scouts have sad expressions.
Maybe we'll see why there all so attached to that devil. Magath thinks.
"She finally wore herself out. Jeez, can you believe this freak? It's crazy to think that she once offered to share meat with everyone." Connie says as he wipes a tear off his eye.
"What? She did?" Eren asks.
"Yeah, four months ago, when we were servicing the cannons." It then zooms into Eren face as he remembers.
"I totally just helped myself to the officer's pantry." Sasha says in the flashback as she brings out a piece of meat. All of them let out gasps as they see her with it.
"Haha their reactions!" Falco says as he laughs.
"Did she actually do that?" Levi asks.
"Yeah she did! Though we didn't get a chance to eat it.." Connie sadly trails off.
"She seems like a troublesome solider." Magath whispers to himself.
"It'll be fine. Just look at it this way. Pretty soon, we'll take back all the room we need for livestock." Sasha says as she puts the meat away. Eren continues to remember as the colossal titan appears right behind him.
"They're gonna get in. They're gonna get in. They're gonna get in!" Connie yells as the steam throws them off the wall.
"That must've been hard." Onyankopon says to them.
"I can't imagine how you guys must've felt when the colossal just appeared there." Hange tells him.
"Yea we were all pretty freaked out except for Eren who tried to attack him." Connie says.
"Oh of course he did." Jean says as he rolls his eyes and grows a smile.
"I'm sorry I put you threw that." Reiner says sadly as he avoids eye contact.
Eren then slashes the air. He's gone! He thinks.
"In that moment, I felt... sorry for you." A memory of Bertholdt saying that plays in Eren mind as it shows him escaping from his titan.
"I know we found out a long time ago but it still weird to see." Jean states.
"Yea I know what you mean." Armin says back.
Bertholdt. Annie, Pieck and Reiner think sadly as they see their departed friend.
"What is he talking about?" Pieck asks.
"I think Eren remember what Bertholdt said after Eren asked him how he felt when he told us his story of his mother being eaten." Reiner states.
"Oh." Falco whispers sadly.
"Hey." Connie says as he places his shoulder on Eren snapping him back to reality.
"It's hard to believe that it's only been four months." Eren says to him.
"It hard to believe it been four years." Mikasa states
"Yeah, it's kinda crazy. But think, that all it took for us to make Levi Squad. How that for climbin' the ranks?" Connie tells him as he smiles.
"It's all because you're a genius." Eren says as he holds his head.
"Damn straight I am." Connie says as he hits his hand at Eren chest.
It's nice to see Eren smile again. Armin thinks.
"Ha you being a genius that the biggest lie I ever heard!" Jean teases him.
"Yea yea whatever." Connie says as he hits Jean head. He then looks sadly at his friendship with Eren. Dammit why did you have to turn into such an asshole.
"How come you choose rookies for your squad." Magath asks Levi.
"Well I thought they would be good for Eren as he was friends with him and I don't regret that choice." Levi states as the rest of his squad form small smiles.
"Come on. Let's eat before it get cold." Eren says as Sasha wakes up and starts yelling out.
"Now that just cruel." Pieck says with a smile.
"Yea at least give her some." Falco adds.
"Don't you get it?" Jean says as he moves his hand up and down. "You've got no experience. That's why you're in the rear guard, rookie."
"I may be less knowledgeable than the rest of you, but isn't the vanguard the best place to learn how the enemy moves?" Marlo says back.
"No you'll just get yourself killed." Magath says.
"I see he didn't change." Annie states.
"What's this? You think you can lecture a veteran about self-sacrifice?" Jean says to him.
"Veteran? Jean you were in the scouts for less than four months." Mikasa says to him.
"Well compared to him I'm a veteran." Jean states.
"Yeah but doesn't mean you get to act like it." Connie says back as he smile.
"Isn't that what makes us effective? Being willing to put ourselves in harm's way?" Marlo questions.
"Listen, everyone starts out as a recruit, okay? If we throw recruits into battle like cannon fodder, then they'll all be too dead to learn." Jean tells him.
"He is making a point." Annie says.
"Though that's what ended up happening to the recruits." Levi states as Annie looks down.
"And that's why, for now, it's your job to watch and learn from the rear. So you can make it back one piece. The ones who really suck are the suicidal maniacs who think the only way to charge in blind. Right?" Jean says as he leans on Armin and looks at Eren.
"Suicidal maniac?" Gabi questions.
"That was his nickname back in then." Annie tells her.
"What? Seriously?" Onyankopon says in surprise.
"Yea because he was desperate to fight titans." Jean says.
"Wow who knew." Pieck says surprised
Eren who was taking a drink of water puts his cup away from his face. "Are you talkin' about somebody in particular?" Eren says as he glares at Jean. Armin and Jean then look up at him.
"Yeah, I'm looking right at him. Suicidal maniac." Jean says back.
"You see, the funny thing is that I recently discovered that I'm actually a pretty normal person. So, hey, if that's how you really see me, then maybe you're just a coward, Jean. Right?" Eren says as he smiles at him. They then both then glare at each other.
"Eren normal yea right." Levi scoffs.
"Why do I feel like something about to go down between you too." Falco says.
"Just watch you'll see." Hange says as she grows a smile.
They both suddenly stand up and put their elbows on Armin head. "You think you're so cool, don't you, you piece of shit?" Jean yells at him.
"That's a pretty shaggy-looking mane you're growing there, horse face!" Eren shouts back.
"What's with those two?"
"No way that used to be the founder." Magath says in shock.
"Yep. Eren used to get into fights with Jean all the time." Connie says as he smiles.
"Yea he was fucking annoying!" Jean groans.
"I know you guys said that before but I thought you were lying." Onyankopon confesses.
"Yea he had some serious anger issues." Reiner recalls.
"It was pretty irritating." Levi states.
"I can imagine especially since back then he was your 'hope'" Magath says.
"Yea but he would always give his best for everything he did." Hange states.
"That like you Gabi!" Falco says as he turns to her.
"Don't compare me an-"
"You guys were similar. Very similar." Annie tells her cutting Gabi off.
"When we were kids he would always get into fights and Mikasa would always have to come save him. Right Mikasa?" He turns to Mikasa who looking down sadly. She's on the verge on tears after seeing Sasha and how Eren used to act.
"Mikasa you need some water?" Hange asks in concern as she gives her water. She nods and drinks down the water. "Eren would always try his best even if he was exhausted. I remember he would stay up nights helping me to try and figure out what to do about Marley and how to improve his titan powers. That was what I admired most about him." Hange says as she lets out a small sigh.
"I see. So this is why you guys want to try and help him." Pieck says as she whispers that last part.
"It hard to believe there the same person." Onyankopon says.
"Yea I wonder what happened." Yelena says as she looks at the scouts who looks down. Their a moments of silence as everyone tries to think how he changed.
"I can't believe that I would miss the angry side of him." Jean sighs.
"No we can still talk with him. It still him we just need to bring him back." Mikasa says as she clenches her fist.
"Yea he could've have just completely changed." Armin adds.
Watching this is making their motivation shake. This isn't good. Magath thinks.
"Try not to kill each other." Connie calmly says as they start grabbing each other shirts.
"Connie so calm!" Falco laughs out.
"Yea we were all used to it by now." Connie tells him.
"You jerk!" Jean yells at him and he brushes him off.
"You're gonna rip my shirt!"
"What the hell are those two doing?" Marlo questions.
"Those are my thoughts." Magath states.
Eren then punches Jean in the stomach as he lets out a grunt.
"What a punch!" Onyankopon shouts.
"That bastard." Jean says as he rolls his eyes.
"It looks life all life left you." Reiner says as he laughs.
"You bastard!" Jean says as he punches Eren back.
"Woah!" Falco exclaims.
"Did you guys always fight on this level?" Pieck asks.
"No they usually just trade insults." Annie replies.
"Show 'em what you've got!"
"He's losing ground!" Another scout yells.
"Shouldn't you stop them?" Yelena asks.
"Nope nobody stopped us for a long time." Jean groans.
"It looks like we've got a fight."
"I told the idiots to behave." Harlod says as he looks back down at his drink.
Eren grabs Jean shirt as he starts panting. "But seriously. If you didn't have Titan powers, you'd be dead ten times over."
"Yea he would." Annie says.
"Didn't he die in the first battle?" Hange asks them and Reiner nods.
That could've saved us a lot of lives if he did. Gabi thinks to herself.
"How did he end up 'dying'?" Yelena asks them.
"Well I was about to get eaten and then suddenly he appeared and took me out of the titans mouth. He got eaten instead of me." Armin tells her as he looks down remembering that moment.
"It was a good thing he did, it enable Eren to transform and you would've been dead." Levi says.
"Wait if he got eaten how come that titan didn't get his power?" Falco questions.
"I'm assuming he was swallowed without getting chewed. Is that correct?" Pieck asks as she turns her head to Armin who nods.
"Although, I guess Mikasa would've swooped in every time to save your worthless ass." Jean continues as he zooms in on Mikasa face. Eren looks stunned as a sweat drips down his face. "You so eager to die? Fine, then I'll kill you!" Soldiers are cheering in the background Jean pushes Eren off and punches him again.
"Yeah? Okay. Give it your best shot!" Eren says as he punches back.
"Woah!" Falco shouts in excitement.
"That fight looks intense." Annie says.
"But it also entertaining." Reiner says as he laughs.
"You oughta start showin' your mum some more respect, Jean-boy!" Eren says as he punches him back.
"Jean boy?" Gabi asks trying to contain her laugh. Jean shrinks as Connie grows a mischievous grin.
"That what his mother called him." Connie responds. "Isn't that right Jean-boy?"
"Don't you start!" Jean yells at him.
"Really she calls you Jean-boy?" Pieck questions as she smiles.
"Eren hasn't let that name die ever since we found out." Mikasa says as she smiles.
"I still can't believe that the founder." Magath says.
"Me too. I wonder how things would've gone if I told Zeke plan to this Eren." Yelena states as Magath glares at her.
This Eren? She acting as if there two completely different people. Hange and Armin think.
"Would you forget that?" Jean shouts as he punches him back.
"Never!" Eren yells back.
"Should we let them keep going?" Armin asks Mikasa as soldiers cheer in the background.
"Stupid horse face!" Eren yells in the background.
"I think it's fine." Mikasa says back as she smiles.
"How come you didn't stop them this time?" Annie asks her.
"Well it was nice seeing Eren angry again." Mikasa states as Annie looks at her confused.
"Some stuff happened and Eren was pretty upset so he wasn't get angry like he normally would." Armin adds.
"Yeah even when I provoked him." Jean says.
Sweat drips on the floor. Why? Why isn't anybody stopping us? Eren thinks as he slowly punches Jean. He and Jean have an hilariously tried yet angry expression while Mikasa and Armin just smile in the background.
Hange starts wheezing to herself. "You expression oh my god!" She shouts.
"Argh Hange be more quiet." Levi says to her. It been a long time since I saw her laugh like that. Levi thinks.
"Honestly it's a little mean how you made them still go." Pieck says as she starts laughing.
"Why are you guys just smiling as you watch?" Onyankopon asks as he laughs.
It hard to believe this is the same person who killed my friends and possibly the entire world. Gabi thinks as she looks at his expression.
How long's this gonna go on? Shit I think I'm gonna barf up that meat. Jean thinks as he slowly punches him back.
"Ew." Mikasa and Levi both say as Jean groans.
"I'm really confused how we can see their thoughts." Armin says as he scratches his head.
"Yeah or even watch the past." Annie adds.
"I think it better if we don't think about it." Reiner says.
"This feels so invasive ugh." Jean states.
"Hey." Levi appears and kicks Eren in the stomach then punches Jean in the stomach. They both fall over. "That's enough celebrating. Go to bed." Levi tells them as the rest of the scouts look at him in shock in fear.
"What a mean punch captain." Yelena says as she turns to him.
"I remember that hurt like hell." Jean states.
"You didn't have to hit them you know Levi." Hange says to him.
"Well they were being to rowdy somebody needed to teach them some discipline." Levi says back.
"I agree." Magath says.
Jean then barfs. "And clean that up." Levi says as he looks away.
"Gross dude." Connie teases him.
"I remember that smelt, a lot." Armin says.
"Argh why did we have to watch these moments." Jean groans.
"Your younger self also seems different Jean." Onyankopon starts.
"Yeah you seem a lot more pathetic." Gabi adds.
"Hey!" Jean yells as the rest of them laugh.
"Yes, sir!" The soldiers respond as it shows Sasha with tears in her eye struggling and kicking her feet up and down.
"Like I said that was cruel." Pieck states as she smiles.
"Poor Sasha." Reiner chuckles.
It then changes to outside. "I can't believe I'm saying this, but shouldn't you guys watch out for me more?" Eren groans as he holds onto Armin.
"Considering how quickly you heal, I wasn't especially worried about it." Armin responds.
"How about me I don't heal!" Jean says to him.
"Well we weren't really thinking of you at that moment." Mikasa responds.
"Ouch." Jean responds.
"Wow some friends you guys are." Gabi says.
"Some friends you are." Eren says as the trio sits down.
Gabi was shocked that Eren just said the same words as her. Are we really similar? Gabi thinks as she looks down.
"Look, you started it, so don't complain." Mikasa tells him.
"Plus, it's good to see you feisty again." Armin responds.
"I'm glad we met with the commandant. I think it helped." Eren says.
"The commandant?" Annie questions.
"Turns out the commandant knew Eren father." Hange responds shocking both Annie and Reiner.
"Yea he was the one who messed with Eren gear." Connie adds.
"Woah I would never have guessed that." Reiner says.
"I don't know about being feisty, but I'll do what I have to. And honestly, I feel better. I just kept thinking about all the stuff I couldn't change. Spent so much time pitying myself, wondering why I couldn't be strong like Mikasa and Levi." Eren smiles then turns to her. "I was jealous."
"Wow never thought Eren would admit that." Annie says.
"That because he not in front of a lot of people." Jean adds.
"But even though you guys are strong, you can't do all that much alone. None of us can."
"Yea it better to be around people so they can be there to help." Pieck says.
"I would beg to differ with Levi." Hange says.
"Yeah, he is a one man army." Armin responds
"I was." Levi corrects as everyone looks at him sadly. And now Eren can do a lot alone.
Eren Yeager is going to wipe the whole world by all alone He doesn't need others to help him.. Gabi thinks.
"That's why we have to find our own roles. When we join together, that's when we become truly powerful." Eren says as he looks up.
Yea he used our strengths during the battle of Liberio. That was why it was considered a victory but still. Jean thinks.
Eren then turns to Armin. "Everyone's got their own strengths, and it's 'cause of times like this."
Armin then looks away and remembers a time from when he was younger. He was crouched in the corner crying. Younger Mikasa and Eren who was bruised up and holding his hand out come to him, smiling.
"Armin you were so cute as a kid!" Hange compliments.
"But why were you crying?" Pieck asks him.
"I had these bullies who used to pick on me a lot. Mikasa and Eren were always there to help me." He turns to Mikasa and smiles. "Eren would always get beat up protecting me though." Armin quietly says. If I was told that Eren would end up beating me worse then the bullies did I wouldn't have believe it.
How times have changed. Connie sadly thinks.
He used to get beat up protecting Armin but ends up beating him just as bad. I wonder why he did that. Gabi thinks in confusion.
"Yeah. I think you're right." Armin says. The trio then gasp as they see a garrison soldier walking by. The soldiers looks like Hannes and they all stare at him.
Hannes... Armin and Mikasa think sadly as they see him again.
Must be a departed friend from them. Magath thinks as he lets out a sigh.
"Once we've retaken Wall Maria and defeated every last one of our enemies can we go back?" Mikasa asks them.
I guess the whole world our enemy and Eren about to defeat them in the worse way possible. Mikasa thinks as she looks down.
No matter what we do, even if we talk with him we could never go back. Armin thinks sadly.
If only they knew how many enemies they had. Annie thinks as she glances at both of them.
"To how things used to be?" Mikasa asks as a memory of all three of them together played in her mind.
I wish they could. Mikasa says as she lets out a sigh.
"Mikasa you okay?" Jean asks her.
"Yeah I'm fine." Mikasa shortly responds.
"I- I took that peaceful life away from you I'm so-"
"Reiner you should just leave it." Pieck cuts him off.
"Beside the blame shouldn't fall on you, we were the one who forced you to go." Magath tells him as Reiner looks down.
"Some things will be the same, but some things changed forever. And we'll make them pay for that." Eren states.
"Yeah." Mikasa says as she looks forward.
"There's more out there, though. The sea. Remember? A body of water so big that merchants could spend their whole lives and still not get all the salt out." Armin says to them.
"Wait you guys didn't know what the sea was?" Gabi turns to ask them.
"Yea stuff on the outside world was banned in the walls." Levi tells them.
"Huh well that shocking." Onyankopon says.
"Not really. Without the knowledge of the outside world people would be more complacent with living their lives inside the walls. They would believe that waiting outside them is just titans nothing more." Yelena states.
"It was always my dream to explore the outside world and see the sea." Armin says to them.
"Yea and the sea was incredible." Connie says.
"There's so much beyond the walls. Not just Titans. Water that glows like fire, fields of ice, giant rocks that take days to climb." Armin continues as the screen shows these places.
"Woah the sky looks beautiful there." Hange exclaims.
"Yea I would like to see that as well." Mikasa adds.
Eren we were supposed to see these together. No, we will see them together. Armin thinks to himself.
"I joined the scouts so I could see all those things someday."
"Yeah. You sure did. I remember." Eren says as he smiles.
"All right then!" Armin shouts as he stands up. "Let's start by finding the sea! I can tell you still don't think it's real, Eren. You'll see! It does exist!"
"You're so excited." Pieck says as she grows a smile.
"And innocent, it's wholesome." Hange teases him as he smiles back.
"Heh. Okay, fine. I guess we'll just have to check it out, then." Eren says to him.
"That's not good enough! You have to promise!" Armin shouts to him.
"Oh, great, here we go again." Mikasa bluntly says.
"This is our chance to explore the outside world! It's gotta be way bigger than inside the walls!" The camera shifts to Levi who is listening in on the teens.
"Huh you were listening in on us?" Mikasa turns to him.
"Yea I was just curious on what you guys were talking about." Levi tells her.
"Still that a little creepy Levi." Hange turns to him.
"What's creepy about listening in on someone conversation." Levi says back.
"I don't know, it's a little ominous." Mikasa states.
"Okay, I promise." Eren tells him
"Eren.." Armin softly says. You promised but now your gonna flatten the world we were going to see together.
"I'm still surprised that how the founder acted back then." Magath says.
"Me too." Yelena states.
"How many times are you going to say that." Jean says in annoyance.
"Well he was only 15 so." Annie says to them.
"Wait he 15? That mean right now he 19!" Gabi says in shock.
"Huh you didn't know that?" Reiner says as he turns to her.
"I don't know I assumed he was older." Gabi responds.
This is making us all realise how much he change but are we wrong? Did Eren ever change? Mikasa thinks. Suddenly the screen lights up to them on the wall.
!Author note!
Yes the alliance crew has arrived. I was conflicted whether I should add the alliance crew or them after the attack on libero. I have a lot of ideas for them! I'm planning that later they meet with their past selves and future Eren arrives. Tell me what you would like from them!
