Mikasa grabbed onto Eren and hugging him tight as she slightly cried, her brother (in law…) was the person who was protecting her and everyone. She couldn't believe it, how was this possible. How could Eren transform into a titan, even though Jonathan was the one who pointed out Eren was alive… he didn't know what to say… he was honestly shocked because of this fact. He looked over at Armin.

"Armin…" Jonathan looked over at him wondering what he thought of the situation, Armin didn't know what the hell to say. Honestly he was at a lost for words, his friend… was a monster? No he couldn't be he helped them, Jonathan knew that Eren helped them and he figured everyone would feel the same way and use Eren as a weapon to stop the titans that would be the most reasonable route right?

Jonathan was doing his best to ignore Mikasa's cries… they were extremely painful… Jonathan didn't know why, though he hated hearing Mikasa cry and he heard multiple cries as they died. Mikasa cries towards Jonathan… were… more painful… he wanted to… hold her. "Jonathan. Let's just help Eren…" Armin said as he jumped down in the steam, Mikasa's crying calmed down but Jonathan put a hand on her shoulder as she looked up at Jonathan. Mikasa looked at Jonathan and still had Eren in her grasp. Armin wanted to touch Eren, to make sure he was okay. Mikasa looked at Jonathan and looked upset as she looked back at Armin. Mikasa then hugged him and tightly, Jonathan wrapped his arm around her and then hugged her back looking at Eren. "Mikasa… are you okay?" Jonathan asked looking down at her as he felt a wet spot growing on his chest, Mikasa then looked back up at Jonathan.

"I'm sorry, I let my emotions get the best of me. I'm sorry." Mikasa said frowning and then stepping away from Jonathan, but something screamed at Jonathan to hug her again. Jonathan hugged Mikasa again and she gladly accepted the hug.

Year 849

"Shouldn't you be with your mother Jonathan it's a rare day that you get a off day." Mikasa stated looking at him. "Well… two in a row." She said as she continued to walk with him as she looked behind her. "Come on Armin and Eren!"

They were talking behind and they seemed to paid no mind to Mikasa and Jonathan who were walking ahead. "Don't bother, they can talk all they want." Jonathan said smiling. "This isn't mandatory or anything…" Jonathan said as he continued to walk ahead so Eren and Armin couldn't hear them.

"How's the ODM gear training coming along with Eren?" Mikasa asked as she looked at Jonathan, he took a big yawn and then looked at Mikasa.

"He's eh. He's fine, he isn't going to die out there he knows the basics and hell he even knows some advanced techniques but he is nowhere near you.." Jonathan said.

"Or you. Don't underestimate yourself, you are a real good soldier Jonathan you just… nothing." Mikasa said.

"I just what?" Jonathan walked backwards as he looked at Mikasa wondering what he meant. Mikasa covered her face with her scarf, it was slightly chilly up there Jonathan didn't blame her for putting on her scarf.

"Stupid." Mikasa stated.

"Hey! I am not stupi-" As soon as that slipped out of his mouth he fell over and held his back as he hit the ground with a thud. He looked up at Mikasa, 'Okay maybe I am a bit… stupid…" Jonathan admitted. Mikasa held her hand out, Jonathan surprised took the hand and then looked back at Mikasa. Something told him either Mikasa was resisting the urge to laugh or she was smiling brightly under that scarf.

"I didn't mean it like that…" Mikasa said, "You are a very smart kid but you make stupid decisions sometimes, like walking backwards up a hill…"

"Okay you got me there that isn't the greatest idea that I have ever come up with. Hey what's up with Jean?" Jonathan asked suddenly, Mikasa looked at him like she didn't know what to say. She didn't, Jonathan just continued his sentence. "I mean.. he likes talking with me for some reason, but like when you come over he gets all nervous. Also, he hates it when Eren comes by."

"If you haven't noticed by now, Jean doesn't really like Eren… I don't know why something about Eren he hates. Also… I don't know why he gets all nervous when I'm around, I never noticed it." Mikasa stated.

"Yeah… and he gets kind of angry when I walk off with you I can see it in his face.." Mikasa put the dots together and then paused.

"Jonathan, he-" She was interrupted by Eren.

"Goodness guys you were so far ahead!" Eren said catching up with them.

"Well we did call you guys like nine times!" Jonathan mentioned looking at Eren. "You were busy with Armin!"

"Whatever, come on Mikasa Jonathan showed me this crazy spot!" Eren mentioned, as Armin and Jonathan chased after each other.

Year 850

Eren, Eren's eyes opened as he remembered those nice times with Jonathan, Mikasa, and Armin. He didn't know why, but those thoughts were popping up. But he didn't mind it, Eren woke up eyes barely open and he felt two people holding onto him. But he did hear Jonathan's voice and he could make out. "This is crazy, this is crazy, this is crazy, this is crazy." Over and over again, Jonathan? Nervous? Eren would've never thought a man that big could be nervous of anything, hell Eren has seen Jonathan talk with confidence and pride to everyone. Well as time carried on, soon Jonathan was known as the second Reiner of the camp.

People looked up to Jonathan more mostly because of the fact that he was easy to talk to, and that's one of the things that Eren liked about Jonathan he was easy to talk to and not like those other guys. Reiner wasn't very easy to talk to he was always hanging out with Bertholdt and Annie. Eren paid no mind really mostly because, Bertholdt, Reiner, and Annie had the same idea in mind and that was to get back to their hometown and everyone seemed to respect that.

He looked over and saw Armin, and Armin looked much more scared than Jonathan. But then Eren also saw Mikasa in front of them and he wondered what the hell was going on, there were no titans insight hell he felt a bit of shade over him and wondered what was going on.

Jonathan looked at Eren and then saw that this eyes were opened. "Mikasa! Fall back! Eren is awake!" Jonathan shouted, Eren wondered why the hell the garrison was there and why was Kitz standing there. There was another small girl standing next to him, she had white hair and looked so small compared to Kitz. Jonathan looked at all of them. He knew that they were trying to kill Eren, but Eren didn't know that. He was still extremely woozy and looked like he was going to pass out at any second. Eren heard Jonathan's voice and saw Mikasa, and he snapped out of it. He looked around at all the chaos that was happening and then opened his eyes… wide.

"Eren!" Mikasa called out looking at Eren.

"What's… what's going on?" Eren questioned as he looked over at not knowing what is going on.

"They're… they're afraid Eren that's all.." Jonathan looked more panicked than usual… he didn't look like his confident self. Jonathan's hands were shaking, even though Armin seemed more nervous than him… Jonathan seemed… conflicted… afraid… and something else. But he didn't know what.

Jonathan was afraid, he was afraid. Of being killed, by humans, he would expect that the titans would kill him, but this is a whole other level. He tried to convince them earlier that they could use Eren to help. He might've got a bit angry at them for wanting to kill Eren… and now the people were a bit afraid of Jonathan afraid that h might go rogue on them. Mikasa had to calm Jonathan down, but she really didn't help the situation either she was equally as angry as Jonathan. Jonathan couldn't calm her down.

"Come on! Eren! Can help us! He isn't the enemy…" Armin said.

"Silence! I think you are just covering for him because you are with him! You all are the enemy! And I will have none of these titans inside of the walls!" He shouted out loud as he raised his hand high in the sky. "Ready…"

"Shit…" Jonathan mumbled as he stood near the trio of people.

"Fire!" Kitz shouted, Jonathan didn't expect them to fire and he saw his whole life flash before his eyes as that happened.

Jonathan knew he should've hung out with his mother more! But more importantly, he should've hung out with his friends more… Eren… Armin… Jean… Reiner… Annie… Ymir… Krista… and… Mikasa… Jonathan heard the cannon blast and he didn't know what to say. He wanted more time.

"No!" He heard Eren call out something and looked over as he felt some electricity on the ground. Suddenly all steam surrounded them, and Jonathan started sweating bcause of the steam. Everyone saw what was going on though, from the outside. Jonathan smelled something foul and disgusting, and then soon saw… a rib… a bone… he looked at Eren he was still there… but… they were surrounded by something. Loads of steam though…

The military police saw a monster, a titan… a half made titan… they knew that Eren had the intention of attacking and eating them and they weren't going to take that! Kitz shouted at the cannons. "Reload! When the steam clears we will blast these people to oblivion!" he shouted at the top of his lungs.

"I don't suppose… you guys have a plan… do you…" Jonathan was losing hope at this point and didn't know, what to do he felt hopeless and fell to his knees. He remembered, they had the smartest cadet right next to them. "Armin! You have to have an idea!"

"I… I don't… Jonathan…" He said looking at Jonathan, why did this man have faith in him at a time like this?

"No! Armin you're smart!" Jonathan said. "You have to have some sort of plan…"

Armin did remember, a boulder. That he saw in the middle of Trost. Eren, could lift that up and then plug the hole possibly stopping, the invasion. Yeah, it could work but Eren might not be able to lift up the boulder and if he can't Armin would look bad… and they would also… probably kill them.. "I… I have an idea…"

"Then tell them! Armin!" Eren said looking at him as he felt some heartburn from the transformation he did, he also felt extremely tired. Jonathan held onto him so he wouldn't fall out.

Jonathan was looking at Eren, but Mikasa as looking at Jonathan for some bizarre reason… Mikasa was wondering when they were about to be attacked by a titan… what was he trying to say… she kept looking at Jonathan as if she didn't know what to say… Jonathan paid no mind to Mikasa though he was focused on Armin. Until… Eren pulled away from Jonathan to talk with Armin. Jonathan was there standing looking at them, and then he looked over at Mikasa who was staring right back at him. Jonathan got hot… and he turned his head quickly.

"What's the matter Jonathan?" She asked looking at him.

"Mikasa… were about to die… how can you be happy?" Jonathan asked turning to look at her, there were tears in his eyes.

"They're not going to kill us… Armin… he will convince them, he is the smartest cadet that e know." Mikasa said. "They wont believe me… they wont believe you… after you got angry… they certainty wont believe Eren. Now… I have a question."

"Yes?" Jonathan asked sitting down.

"What were you trying to say to me… during the titan attack…" Mikasa asked looking at Jonathan, Jonathan went a hot red as she asked that.

Jean took a big swig, of water as he sat on one of the steps. He was wondering what Jonathan was doing at this very second, even though they didn't talk a lot… Jean was still wondering what was going on. He cared for Jonathan, mostly because Jonathan was always there for him… hen he needed some help Jonathan was willing to help.

"What's happening to Jonathan?" Jean asked looking at Ymir as she passed by.

"I don't know, he's with Eren, Mikasa, and Armin. For all we know they could be killed." She said looking at Jean and then walking away.

Jean face palmed as she said that, please don't let it be true. Eren, Mikasa, Jonathan, and Armin. Dead, sure he hated Eren. But he didn't hate Eren enough for him to die, he was kind of a rival. Jean didn't feel so well and just leaned back slightly as he sighed deeply as that happened.

"Shit, Mikasa this isn't the time I'll tell you later?" Jonathan said burying his hands into his face.

"Come on Jonathan, what you were about to say… was important." Mikasa said. "If Armin's plan fails… I would like to hear what you have to say." Jonathan paused he didn't want to say anything. He just wanted to keep quiet and he just looked the other way, quickly trying to think of a lie.

He decided to flip the conversation. "Well what do you have to say?" He asked looking at her, Jonathan saw the steam and it was almost clear. He still couldn't see the garrison group…

"I appreciate you." She spit it out, Jonathan was wondering if Mikasa was trying to spit out a lie to. It wasn't a lie, it was the farthest from a lie. Mikasa really appreciated Jonathan as a person… and she wanted to get close to him even more. Jonathan just blushed as she said that and rubbed his arm.

"I appreciate you to… and… I don't plan on dying here." Jonathan got up and so did Mikasa, they saw Armin charge out of the steam and heard his voice. Mikasa turned back at Jonathan and then embraced him, Jonathan did the same thing and looked at Eren who wasn't looking back at him.

When Eren looked back they both separated. Jonathan looked at Eren, "So… what's Armin's plan…"

"A boulder, I'm suppose to lift up a boulder that's twice the size of me and then plug up the whole. Then we can eliminate all of the titans that are in Trost…" Eren stated.

"Sounds… good…" Jonathan said looking at Eren and smiling as he rubbed the back of his head. They weren't going to die… yet…

Armin's plan… didn't work… well, they would've died if Pyxis didn't come and stop the cannon fire from happening. He decided, that the plan could work and was willing to try it. Rico, the small woman with the white hair would be helping them and Jonathan was going to be with Mikasa as they defended Eren.

Eren was ready, and he ran across the wall and then jumped down to land near the boulder, biting himself and then Jonathan saw the transformation. He landed right next to him, and saw Eren transform into the titan and Jonathan smiled. They could've been dead, but they were still alive. Alive and kicking.

Jonathan and Mikasa looked up at Eren as Eren was looking directly at them. Jonathan wondered why, maybe Eren wanted to tell them something? He was wrong, Jonathan watched as Eren raised his fist. And then lowered it, smashing his fist into the building they were standing on and Jonathan pushed Mikasa out of the way. Luckikly they were both okay, and he looked at Mikasa and she seemed as shocked as Jonathan. "Jonathan!" She shouted looking at him. "Go! I'll handle Eren just make sure no titans are near him!" She said.

"Okay Mikasa!" Jonathan said getting up and then using his ODM gear to get out of there. Jonathan turned around and saw Mikasa as she went onto the face of Eren's titan. Seemingly trying to calm him down, but then Jonathan saw Eren's fist clench… he knew something was wrong… his senses proved to be right. As he saw Eren attempt to punch Mikasa, luckily she moved quickly and then jumped back onto the floor. Jonathan saw Eren slump over, half of his face was destroyed because of the punch. It was extremely powerful. And knocked Eren down against a building.

Jonathan also saw the titans closing in and remembered what Mikasa told him to do. If they ate Eren, their chances would be all over. But… he saw Armin head over to Eren, he prayed that they would be able to talk him out of it and hopefully take back Trost. All he could do… was hope.
