It was a bright, almost cloudless, but Kaneki was still worried as hell. He and Hide had just about done it. They were joining the Survey Corps. That was fine and all, but Kaneki was still worried whether they could survive their first mission, and if he got caught what would happen?
A shriek from his teammates snapped him back to reality. He strolled towards his friends to see what they were bickering about. He saw Sasha with a cylinder of meat. "So she decides to steal meat when I can't eat it?" he thought glumly.
Kaneki watched as each of his friends stated a share for themselves, even Hide "Kaneki will get some too!" Hide stated. Kaneki started sweating.
"Um, no thanks." Kaneki muttered with a wave and a shy smile. Hide eyed him suspiciously.
"Kaneki, at this rate you'll starve to death."
"I've been eating! I'm just nervous."
Hide glanced at him one last time.
"If you say so! More for the rest anyway."
But at that moment there was a sudden flash and lightning. No one believed it. No one moved. It was the Colossal Titan.
After a silence that seemed forever, there was a sudden puff of steam and a big "CRASH!" It broke the gate. The heat and the force knocked the tiny soldiers off the walls. Kaneki switched to 3DMG like if he was a machine. He was panting like a dog. He looked down and saw Samual hanging, one of Sasha's wires pierced his leg. No other injuries. Good.
He looked up. Before he could think of anything, he saw Eren zooming towards the titan.
"C'mon! This is our only chance! He's the only one who can break the gate!"
But the did nothing. Not Connie. Not Mina. Not even Hide. They were all too shocked. Finally Connie and Thomas got the courage to go up. Kaneki watched them go as he moved towards Hide.
"Are you okay?" Hide didn't answer for a minute. "I'm fine, but the gate..." After a new moment of silence they were called away. Kaneki never guessed his first mission would be so soon.
"You are now full fledged soldiers!" Kaneki was so terrified, he felt like he was sweating more than Bertholdt (Probably not).
After they were dismissed everyone started to panic. People were crying and others were hugging (*coughs* Franz and Hannah) and others were sitting with blank faces. Kaneki decided to sit and think. He and Hide were in different squads that wasn't good. He was still thinking when Hide came and plopped next to him.
"Y'know, I'm not really hungry anymore." Hide chuckled with a smirk. Kaneki snickered.
"Hey Kaneki?"
"Yeah?"
"If all hell breaks loose, find me. You would probably not last long."
"Wow, rude."
"Just come find me, okay?"
"Yeah, sure"
Finally it was time to get into their assigned squads.
Kaneki was shocked at how many titans have gotten inside Trost already. He was in a squad full of people he didn't know too well. Before he knew it he was busy slaying titans. Kaneki wasn't good, but good enough. He tried to block out the sound of screaming, but it was nearly impossible.
He then heard a familiar scream. It was one from his squad mates. She was a brunette with short hair. She was in the grasp of a 4 meter titan. "Clara!" shouted one of his teammates
This was enough of a distraction for Kaneki. Before Kaneki stopped to look he failed to notice a 10 meter titan wandering towards him.
Suddenly, he felt a crushing force squeeze the air out of him. He looked up and felt his eyes go wide. He saw the terrifying mouth of the titan open wide. He started fighting and squirming, and his squirming caused his eye patch to brush off. The titan's grip was also too tight for him to grab his swords.
"No! I can't die yet!( "I still have to read that book Armin was telling me about!" XD) He started fighting even more. Suddenly, his left eye turned red and his kagune appeared. His rinkaku sliced through its fingers and he tumbled to the roof. He started backing up but the titan was already reaching for him with his other hand.
Right then he saw a soldier propel themselves in the direction of the titan. She was obviously skilled as she swiftly and cleanly cut out the nape. The titan fell face first right in front of Kaneki. Kaneki saw the soldier jump onto the roof. It was Mikasa. He felt all eyes on him. No this can't be happening. His kagune was just fading away. After a few seconds of silence of the same teammate that screamed for her friend, pointed at Kaneki and shrieked, "Y-You're a ghoul!" Kaneki covered his eye with his hand, got up, and glided out there. The same girl shouted, "Come back here, you bastard!" and started to run towards him, but Mikasa stopped her. "Mania, don't bother. We have bigger problems."
Longest chapter yet! Sorry for the huge wait. Please leave suggestions as I am going with the flow. Also, Mania and Clara are ocs and side characters so they'll be gone by the next chapter.
