Everything hurts, but at the same time, nothing feels like anything. Where the hell am I? Connie felt like he was floating, no, he was being lifted somewhere. It was bright and colorful, that pain he felt was gone, he looked down to see he was wearing solid white cloths. He was then in front of a golden gate, it looked like it was on a cloud. "Hello, anyone here?" Connie asks. He took a step forward and realized he wasn't wearing any shoes. Then there was a loud clicking sound. The gate was opening. Connie stepped forward and was shocked by what he saw. It was a young man, maybe 5'10, he had black hair and a lot of freckles. "Marco?" Connie asks. "Connie, my friend." Marco said running towards him. He was wearing a long sleeve white shirt with white slacks and no shoes, but he looked so happy to see him. Marco runs up and gives Connie a big bear hug. "Marco, where are we?" Connie asks. Marco didn't let go, he was just hugging Connie. "Trust me, you don't want to know. Then Connie realized what was going on. "Am I…" Connie was saying. 'Marco looks down at him. "Yes you are." Marco tells him.
BBOOONNNGGGG. A loud sound came out of nowhere. "What was that, is that normal here in, I guess heaven?" Connie asked scared. Marco just looks at him and smiles. "Nevermind, your time isn't up yet, but I guarantee we will see eachother again, in a long time." Maro says. He then backed up. "What are you talking about Marco, WHAT'S GOING ON!" Connie screamed at Marco. Marco just gave him an apologetic smile. "Tell Jean I said hi." Marco said. Connie just nods his head, tears down his face but he nodded.
It then felt like the ground beneath him disappeared, and he started falling, into a dark abyss. "AGHHH!" Connie was screaming. He felt his clothes ripping off, but not to be removed, to be changed, he felt his shirt turn into a sweatshirt and it felt like he had on jeans and sneakers again. But he kept falling. He then saw something familiar,earth. He kept going towards it, it kept getting closer and closer. He then went through the atmosphere and was heading towards America. Then he fell more to where he was about to crash into a hospital, he then saw himself in a hospital room, being defibrillated. He finally landed in his body. His eyes shot open and his chest went to the air. "AGHHH!" He screamed. "He's back, but he's awake, strap hi down for the procedure." A doctor said. Then four more came up and each grabbed one of Connie's legs. "NO STOP, WHAT ARE YOU DOING, LET ME GO!" Connie screamed. They managed to strap him down to the bed. Then one came up with a needle and stuck it in his arm. "NO STOP THAT, PLEASE STOP, I'LL, I'll, I'll do bette-" Connie was saying but he then went to sleep.
"CONNIE!" Sasha screamed at the top of her lungs. "Holy shit!" Jean yelled. Eren ran up to Connie. "Connie, you in there buddy, please get up, come on man." Eren said shaking him. "I'm calling for paramedics!" Krista said scared. "I'll check his pulse, Bertolt, see if there's some kind of first aid box in the van, now!" Armin yells at him. Armin checks his pulse. "Is he alive!" Jean asks. "Yes, but with a slow heart beat." Armin says. Annie looked over and saw Sasha lying on her knees crying. Annie ran over to her and gave her a hug. "It's going to be okay, It's going to be okay, I promise." Annie said holding Sasha with her hands. "He can't die, he just can't die!" Sasha said with her face wet with tears. "Paramedics are on there way right now' Krista says as she puts her phone in her pocket."Armin, is he breathing!?" Eren asked him with a rude tone. Armin's face goes white. He pulls out his phone quickly and puts it in front of Connie's mouth. His eyes go wide. "EVERYONE BACK UP, GIVE ME SOME ROOM, I NEED TO GIVE HIM CPR!" Armin yelled. "NO, HE HAS TO BE BREATHING!" Sasha screamed. Tears were filling Annies eyes to. "He'll be fine, I promise." ANnie lied to Sasha, but she was just trying to calm her down. Krista ran up to the other side of Sasha and hugged her. "I'm so sorry Sasha." Krista said wrapping her arms around Sasha. Armin started doing chest compressions on Connie. "One one thousand, two one thousand, three one thousand." Armin kept saying. Bertolt then ran out of the van, tears in his eyes. "Me and Ymir checked everywhere, no first aid kits anywhere!" Bertolt screamed. "Thirty one thousand." Armin said. He then lifted Connie's nose slightly and lowered his chin, he then did mouth to mouth three times. Sasha was crying uncontrollably now, there were tears on her clothes and on the ground. "CONNIE YOU CAN'T BE DEAD, WE WERE GOING TO GET MARRIED AFTER COLLEGE AND LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER TOGETHER, RIGHT, RIGHT?!" Sasha screamed. Mikasa ran up in front of her and hugged her too. "Please calm down Sasha, just cry into us, don't be worried. Jean, Eren, and Bertolt just stopped. "ARMIN, KEEP DOING MOUTH TO MOUTH, I'LL DO COMPRESSIONS!" Eren yelled as he ran up to Connie and started doing compressions. Then the sounds of Sirens rang through the air. Jean looks over and sees an ambulance in the distance. "WE'RE RIGHT HERE, WE'RE OVER HERE, HURRY UP!" Jean yelled waving his hands around. "COME ON CONNIE!" Eren yelled while doing compressions. The ambulance the turned into the small parking lot they were in. Three medcis busted through the doors and ran up to Connie. 'Move kids, we'll take over from here." One of them said. Armin and Eren quickly backed away and let him do his thing. He ran up to Connie and checked his pulse. "There's no pulse, we have to hurry or we'll be to late!" He yelled to the other two. They both got a stretcher and dragged it out of the ambulance. "HE'S NOT DEAD, THEY'RE BOTH LYING!" Sasha screamed. "And up you go." One of the doctors said as he put Connie in the stretcher. "I'm going with them, you guys just go to the hospital!" Sasha yelled at them. "Sorry miss, you can't come with us, not sure if he'll make it that far." The doctor said. But he made a sour face, he knew he should have worded that differently. "NOO!" Sasha yelled. Anne turned Sasha's head to face her's. "Listen, we'll follow them to the hospital, he will make, I promise you." Annie told her. Sasha just looks at her. "Okay." She says with no emotion.
They were in the waiting room now, all nine of them, they've been there for only five minutes but it felt like an eternity. Sasha was sitting in a chair with her arms wrapped around her legs, just looking at the ground. Anne and Krista were both next to her, with a hand on both of her were still rolling down her face. Then all the sudden the door to the waiting room busted open and just about scared Armin and Eren to death. A giant stepped through the door, he was 6'3 and looked stocky, he had on a plaid red shirt and a farmer hat. He had dark brown lettuce hair from his hat and a small goatee, but he looked upset and mad. 'Sasha, you in here?!" He asked out loud. "Daddy?" Sasha asked lifting up her head. He turned to look at her. Sasha ran up from her seat and jumped into his arms. He caught her with ease. "I came as soon as I found out, where is he?" Mr. Brous asks. Sasha looked up at her dad, tears in her eyes, she then just buried her head in his chest and let it all out. She yelled and cried, and her dad just let her. "Okay, just take a moment to gather your thoughts, I'll ask someone else, okay?" Mr. Brous asks her. She just nodded and sat down, tears still streaming down her face. He turned and looked at Krista and Annie, who looked concerned. In fact, everyone in the waiting room wa looking at him. He just calmly walked over in front of Annie and Krista. He took off his hat and squatted in front of them. "ANnie, Krista, how are you?" He asked. "I'm fine." Krista said. "I could be better, but thanks for asking." Annie said. "Well, I wish I could see you under better circumstances, but can one of you please tell me what exactly happened." Mr. Brouse told them, it wasn't a question though, it was a demand. Krista looked at Annie, and she nodded. They told him everything, from how Connie wa acting weird at the hotel, to how Sasha was taking a picture and to where they said he might not make it.
Mr. Brouse just sat there, he was heartbroken. When Connie was released from the hospital when he was twelve, Mr. Brous offered to take him in, because his [parents were always on business trips, they were only home once every two weeks, so Connie was the son he ever had. "Thank you for telling me." Mr. Brouse said. He stood up and put his hat back on. He then walked over to where Sasha was sitting and sat next to her. She just leaned over and rested her head on his shoulder.
About thirty minutes later a doctor came out. "I'm looking for the parent of Connie Springer?" He said. There looking for a parent? Mr. Brous said to himself. "That's me." he said raising his hand. Sasha looked up at him confused. "Okay then, follow me Mr. Springer." The doctor said. "It's actually Don Brous." He told the doctor. "Okay then, follow me Don. " The doctor said. Don sat up and walked with the doctor, Sasha was right behind him. "So what's wrong with him?" Don asked the doctor. "The cancer he had, we thought it was gone, but it was dormant, we don't know how though, unless he was in a fight recently, but it's back, but not as bad." The doctor said. "Is he alive?! Sasha asked him quickly. The doctor stopped, looking at the ground. "Well, when he was brought here he was dead, most of us just said that, there was no hope, but one of our doctors, doctor Yeager, said he knew him, and insisted that we try to save him." The doctor said. "Grisha Yeager, did it work, tell me!" Don yelled at him. "For some reason, it did, after thirty minutes of being dead, he came back to life, it's honestly a miracle." The doctor said. "Is he up, can we speak to him?" Don asked him. Sasha eyes were wide, Connie was alive. "He's up. But tired, but you can talk to him." The doctor said. He led them to a door in a hallway and opened it. Connie was there, wearing a gown and under a blanket, but alive. "Oh Connie!" Sasha said as she ran up to him and jumped on the bed with him. "Hey Sasha, what's wrong?" Connie asked stroking her hair. Sasha started to cry a little, she gripped his shirt. "They said you might not make it, I was so worried." Sasha said, with tears rolling down her cheek. "I'm sorry." Connie told her. He sounded out of it, he was clearly tired, but happy to see her. Don walked up from behind Sasha."Hey son, I'm glad you're awake." He told Connie. "Hey Don, thanks for coming." Connie said with a smile.
"Oh Don, it's good to see you." aid from behind them. They turned to see Doctor Yeager Standing in the doorway. "Oh Grisha." Don said walking up to him. He gave him a big hug, a man hug. "I did all I could, he's still a knucklehead, but Connie's alive." Grisha said. "Yes he is, yes he is." Don said. "But I have bad news.' Grisha said with a serious tone. Don backed up and looked at him. "What is it?" He asked him. "Pull up a chair, you'll need to sit down." Grisha told him.
They both pulled up a chair from a small table in the room, Sasha was sitting right next to Connie. "So what is it?" Don asks him. Grisha leans back in his seat. "When Connie got here, he was dead, but I brought him back, and that is amazing in general, but that didn't stop the cancer, i fact the cancer is worst, he needs brain surgery." Grisha said. "No, not again, why do I need it again!" Connie yelled at him. "Okay, but how much is it?" Don asked him. Sasha grabbed Connie's hand and gripped it tightly. "You don't need to worry about the price, the problem is that I need a parents signature."
