Here's the next chapter.
Enjoy!
Armin and the others are being lowered into the supply room. People assigned to kill the titans are on the roof, waiting for the signal.
Titan: (notices the humans being lowered and turns to them)
Marco: Okay. They see us. Don't loose your cool. Wait until they come in range…(shakes vigorously)
Everyone else shakes as the Titans come closer and closer.
Marco: Ready…set…FIRE! (shoots the Titan in the eyes)
Everyone shoots the Titans in their eyes. Everyone on the roofs runs to a Titan and jumps off.
Mikasa: (kills her Titan and lands safely)
Kaiias: (kills his Titan, lands safely, and looks to see if anyone else made theirs)
Both Sasha and Connie miss their Titans and fall. The Titans look at them and starts slowly walking towards them.
Sasha: (backs away as the Titan walks towards her) No…Please…I'm sorry…
Titan: (jumps for Sasha)
Sasha: (jumps out of the way) PLEASE NO!
Mikasa: (jumps on the Titan and kills it)
Kaiias: (runs to the other Titan and kills it)
Sasha: (runs up to Mikasa) Thank you so much!
Mikasa: (looks down at her) Calm down, and get up.
Connie: (walks up to Kaiias) Th…Thanks Kaiias…
Kaiias: (looks back at Connie) No problem.
Everyone gets their gas cans filled up. Jean and Marco are filling up their gas and Jean says something to Marco.
Jean: Hey. Marco…
Marco: (looks at him)
Jean: What you said about me being a leader. Don't talk about me like that again…
Marco: (smiles and looks down) Look, I wasn't calling you a leader because you're strong…I said it because you know what it's like to be scared and weak…(looks at Jean) Just look at how you reacted back there. You knew we couldn't help him and you were scared of your own safety. You know how to react in fear.
Jean: (looks at Marco surprised)
After everyone refills their gas, everyone heads out. Armin sees Mikasa on the roof and goes up to her. Kaiias, Reiner, Jean, Annie, and Bertolt all follow him)
Armin: Mikasa! Come on! We have to go.
Mikasa: (looks down) Look…
Everyone looks down to see the Rouge Titan getting eaten by other Titans.
Armin: (looks at them) Cannibalism? Why are they doing that?
Kaiias: Maybe they see him as another human.
Mikasa: Maybe I'm crazy, but I actually thought he would've helped. He already helped this much.
Reiner: He has. I say we should kill the Titans eating him, that way he'll still be some use to us.
Jean: (looks at everyone) Are you crazy? It's a Titan! Your talking about it like it's our friend!
Annie: (looks at jean) It's a good idea. Having an Abnormal that likes to kill it's own kind, knows fighting stances, and knows exactly where the weak spot is is completely powerful. Plus there's too much to learn from him.
Armin: (looks over to see the Titan that killed Thomas) Oh no…it's the one that killed Thomas!
Rouge Titan: (sees the Titan that killed Thomas, gets angry, breaks free of the Titans eating him, losing his arms in the process)
The cadets look as the Rouge Titan runs towards the other Titan. The Rouge Titan bites through the neck of the Titan, slams that Titan's body on another Titan, and throws the Titan's body at another Titan. The Rouge Titan roars loudly before collapsing on the ground.
Jean: (starts walking away) Hey, at least we don't have any Titans around. Let's get out of here.
Everyone is looking at the Titan's corpse.
Jean: (turns to see everyone looking at it) Come on! (walks up to see what they're looking at) It's just a-
Everyone looks to see Eren coming out of the Titan's body.
Mikasa: (looks at Eren surprisingly and jumps off)
Armin: (looks at Mikasa) Mikasa wait!
Mikasa runs to Eren's body, not caring about where she is and what she's doing. She grabs Eren's body, holding it tightly against her. She looks at Eren's face to see that he was unconscious. She puts her head to his chest. When she feels Eren's heart beat she starts to cry. As she's crying, everyone looks.
Armin: (looks surprised to see that it's Eren)
When Mikasa gets back up to the roof. Everyone looks as she is still holding Eren's unconscious body. Armin walks up to see that Eren's arm and leg are healed.
Armin: Wh…what…? (looks at his arm and leg)
Mikasa: (looks up with tears in her eyes)
Armin: They were…cut off…
Mikasa: (looks at Armin)
Armin: His arm and leg…they were gone…how…how did they come back…?
Jean: (looks out at all the steaming dead Titan bodies) So…
Annie, Kaiias, Reiner, and Bertolt look at Jean.
Jean: Eren…did all of this…?
Eren sees Armin yelling at him before seeing giant sets of teeth go down on his arm. Eren is in a Titan stomach when he wakes up. He screams really loudly.
Eren: (is beaten up and doesn't have an arm) We…(remembers Thomas dying and him running to try and kill the Titan) we were ready…(remembers his leg getting bitten off) we were all set…(remembers him saving Armin before getting eaten and losing his arms) I…(gets lower in the Titan's stomach and remembers his mom dying) I…will…(puts his severed arm in the air) Kill them all! You hear me? I'll kill them with my bare hands! My bare hands!
A giant arm bursts out of the Titan's mouth. The Titan falls to the ground. After he falls the Titan's back starts coming up. The Titan's back come out and out comes the Rouge Titan.
Eren: (in Titan form) It's over…(looks and sees the Titan that took his leg and walks towards it) you don't belong here…
Titan: (looks at Eren and jumps at him)
Eren: (punches through the Titan's head. Killing it instantly and breaking Eren's hand) You're all gonna die…(looks at his hand and sees it regenerating then looks at the dead Titan's body) Get up…(starts repeatedly stepping on the Titan) Get up! Let me kill you…over and over again! (stops and looks for more Titans) It's over…
Eren: (in his human form and looks really dazed) Your all gonna die…
Armin: (looks at Eren) E…Eren…?
Eren: (opens his eyes slowly then looks at the soldiers aiming their swords at them)
A lot of soldiers are staring at Eren, Armin, Kaiias, and Mikasa. The commander is looking at Eren like he's looking at a monster. Eren looks really confused.
Eren: (looks around) Wh…what the…
Kitts: Don't think about moving!
Mikasa: (looks back) Eren! You're okay!
Eren: (looks at Mikasa and Kaiias) Wh…what's going on…?
Kaiias: (looks back) You don't remember…?
Eren: (holds his head) No…(looks at the commander) Why does he have that stare…? It's like he's looking at a monster…
Kitts: Cadets Armin Arlert, Mikasa Ackerman, Kaiias Cardyle, and Eren Yeager! You four of you are involved in an act of high treason!
Kaiias: (looks back ahead)
Kitts: (looks dead at Eren) Eren Yeager! Answer this question! Are you a human, or a Titan?
Eren: (thinks) What…? What do you mean…? (looks up and yells) I don't understand sir!
Kitts: (looks at Eren) Don't play with me! We saw you! We saw you come from that Titan!
Eren: (looks surprised and thinks) Wh…what…? What are you talking about…? That was all a dream…wasn't it…? (looks at his arm and leg and sees his ) Wait…My arm…my leg…(looks up)
Kitts: (yells louder) You better answer me!
Soldier: (looks at the commander) Sir! Let us take him out! We'll use far more less artillery if he's in human form!
Mikasa: You won't get anywhere near him…(steps up) I'm more than willing to test the limits of my skill. On every last one of you.
Kitts: (looks at Mikasa)
Soldier: (whispers to the Commander) Sir. There's something you should know.
Kitts: (turns to the soldier)
Soldier: The ones standing up, they were assigned to the elites fresh out of training. The girl was second and the man was first. The boy, he wouldn't fight unless he absolutely had to. The girl however, I'm not so sure.
Kitts: (turns to them)
Kaiias: (looks back) Eren. Do you remember anything?
Eren: (looks up) Y...yeah…but it's hazy…
Armin: (looks at Eren) What do you remember?
Eren: I remember just…feeling free…like…I completely let go of my humanity…
Kitts: (yells) What are you whispering? Speak up damn you! All this nonsense is keeping us defenseless against the Armored Titan!
Rico: Sir, it's obvious that that's their plan. If he is evil, it's obvious that him, the Armored, and the Colossal are all human Titans. He must be the decoy while the Armored gets ready.
Eren: (thinks) I…I've always been a human…right…? (remembers him, Armin, and Mikasa playing as little kids then looks up) I'm human!
A long silence goes throughout the entire place.
Kitts: (slowly starts raising his hand) I'm sorry…
Kaiias, Mikasa, Armin, and Eren all look as he lowers his hand.
Kitts: When you think about it…we're all monsters…
Mikasa: (looks behind her) Kaiias, grab Eren and run towards the Wall!
Kaiias grabs Eren and starts running as a cannon shoots at all of them. Eren sees his key and remembers his Dad giving him the power.
Grisha: (has tears running down his eyes) Eren…listen to me…
Eren: (looks down at the key then looks at his dad) I don't understand…
Grisha: You don't have to Eren…you will soon enough…whenever you see the key…remember this thought…I must return to the cellar…the cellar contains the truth Eren! (fills the needle with a liquid and looks at Eren)
Eren: (backs away slowly)
Grisha: I'm sorry Eren…I wish there was more time to explain…when the time comes…you know that you have to reclaim Wall Maria…(walks towards Eren) I know what I'm doing Eren! When the abilities confuse you, let memories act as your guide! (walks towards Eren some more)
Eren pushes off of Kaiias, grabs his arm, and runs towards Mikasa. He grabs Mikasa and stands near Armin. When he turns to see the cannon ball, he transforms into his Titan form. Blocking the cannon ball's hit, protecting his friends, and striking fear into everyone that heard the loud bang.
