Chapter 2- Rose
The moment I notice the boy with blonde hair and the red and black streaks,I gasp. "Shinku?" I breathe, staring at the 18 year old. I'm sucked into what happened when we met.
Flashback to Last Year
We met during a expedition last year where he was guiding people to safety, and I was ambushed by 12 titans. I put up one hell of a fight taking out 6 by myself, but I was exhausted and couldn't fight anymore and he came in like a shadow coming from above using his kusarigama in a wide horizontal arc, killing the titan closest to me in a sweeping motion, as he unsheathed his scythe into a spin, decapitating the second closest titan's head.
Before swinging back up, thanks to his kusarigama stabbing into the tree branch, allowing him to kill another 2 titans then he landed in front of me, onto the branch in a crouch and his kusarigama chain retracted back onto his arm. I remember thinking 'that shouldn't be possible'. He stood up slowly, while shaking his titan blood covered hair, when I asked quietly, "W-What is your n-name?" he tilted his head in my direction as the remaining two titans appeared trying to eat him causing me to scream, fearing he was about to be killed, but without looking he had cut a titan's head in half with his scythe and his kusarigama had wrapped around the other titan's neck and started to retract to him again, shredding the titan's entire neck to dust, both of the titans' regeneration not working for some reason, all the while saying in a broken sentence,
"I...am...Shinku…..Kage."
he then checked me for any injuries, after a few minutes and not finding any injuries, he helped me onto his back, before he went off following my path back to where I had came from using his kusarigama. Then I told him my name, "M-My name is Nightshade Fury, thank you f-for saving me, but where are you taking me?" He simply nodded and grunted. We heard voices calling out my name. He found a large tree branch nearby and he swung onto that, let me get off his back, then launched away. "Maybe we'll meet again someday" I murmur, knowing he's too far away to hear me.
Present Time
I snapped back into reality as titan horde surrounds me. "Shit!" I snarl. I start trying to take them down. My blades glint black as they flash to take titans down. I see Shinku from the corner of my eye talking to Levi. I get grabbed, I struggle and scream and try to fight. I see a glint of silver and all of a sudden i'm free falling. Erwin catches me and sets me on a roof. Black mist is going through the titans causing them to become skeleton-y as i'm getting weaker. I can barely focus enough to create a dome around the source. The world goes black as titans start to disappear.
