Here's the next chapter.
Note: Kaiias' arm is still hurting from what happened at Trost. (Kaiias broke his arm at Trost and it is still healing)
Enjoy!
Kaiias sees Eren trying to bite his thumb.
Kaiias: Eren no!
Eren: (looks at Kaiias)
Kaiias: You know what'll happen if you go Titan without permission! They know what they're doing!
Eren: (ignores Kaiias and tries to bite through his thumb)
Petra: Eren! Trust us!
Levi: I wouldn't blame you Eren…
Eren: (looks at Levi)
Levi: Sometimes you have to do what you're gut tells you…sometimes it's wrong, sometimes it's right…you have to choose whether to trust yourself, or trust the people who want to put their lives on the line…for you…
Eren: (is about to transform)
Petra: Eren! Please! Trust us!
Eren: (looks at Petra's hand and remembers them all biting her hand to say that they're sorry for not trusting each other)
Levi: Eren! Come on! Are you gonna transform or not?
Eren: (takes his hand out of his mouth) I'm with you!
Another soldier dies.
Eren: Damnit…
The Female Titan chases them. She stops when she sees a bunch of soldiers and some cannons.
Ervin: FIRE!
Millions of cords go striking into the Female Titan's body. The Female Titan covers her nape but cannot move.
Levi: (looks behind at them) All right. Switch to ODM gear. Kaiias. Are you coming with me?
Kaiias: (remembers the Female Titan escaping and her killing Eren's teammates) No sir. With all respect I think I'll do better here.
Levi: Very well. Take care of my horse. (jumps off his horse and swings away)
Levi swings up to Ervin.
Levi: Doesn't look like she's putting up much of a fight.
Ervin: That doesn't mean we shouldn't be careful. Second and third waves…FIRE!
Millions of more cords go into the Female Titan, making her joints even stiffer.
Eren and his team are on a tree resting.
Eld: Looks like that was the plan all along.
Petra: And we wouldn't have done it without one person.
Eren: (looks at Petra) Wait. What did I do…?
Petra: (smiles) You learned to trust your teammates. That's huge.
Oluo: Oh please! It would be the same even if he wasn't whining the entire time.
Kaiias: He was just concerned about our safety. If I didn't know the plan from the beginning, I would have fought that damn thing with Eren.
Oluo: (looks away angrily)
Eld: Enough. (laughs a bit) So Kaiias,
Kaiias: (looks at Eld) Yeah?
Eld: Eren seems to trust you a lot. How long have you two known each other?
Kaiias: Well, (looks at Eren, then back at Eld) We've been friends since the Fall of Shiganshina. As a matter of fact, we were there in Shiganshina.
Eld: Wow. You two must be really good friends.
Eren: Yeah. (nudges Kaiias) Really good friends.
Levi: (looks at the Female Titan) I'm getting inpatient. Can we take it out now?
Ervin: (nods)
Levi and Mike swing towards the Female Titan, when they try to slice through her hands, she hardens her skin, breaking their blades.
Mike: (swings to Ervin, looks at his blades, and shakes his head)
Ervin: (looks at the crystalized hands) So, she has the ability to crystalize her body parts. Kinda like the Armored Titan. (looks at a soldier) Blow her hands off! Sever them at the wrists to the human is still alive!
Jean and Armin are up on a tree distracting titans.
Jean: (looks at all the Titans) Hey, Armin…
Armin: (looks at Jean then looks at the Titans)
Jean: We were ordered to distract them…not kill them…right…?
Levi: (is on top of the Female Titan's head) What are you doing? Stop messing with us and just come out…we know you're in there. If you're thinking about escaping, don't. If you think we'll let you go, we wont. All you should be thinking about is the good people you killed. Also what we're gonna do…oh yeah…if you don't mind I'd like to cut you're limbs off…I mean, they'd just grow back. I'm talking about you're human body by the way. Yeah, that's right. You're gonna have to deal with me…and trust me…I'll make you hurt…badly…
Female Titan: (roars loudly)
When the Female Titan roars, all the Titans that heard the roar run into the forest.
Kaiias: (covers his ears)
Eren: (covers his ears and looks up) What the hell is that?
Connie: (runs after the Titans going in) What the hell? They're all abnormal?
Three Titans run straight for the Female Titan.
Levi: (looks at the Titans and starts stomping on the Female Titan) What did you do? (looks at the Titans, swings to them, and kills all of them)
Mike: (swings up to Ervin) There are more…lots more…coming from all directions…
A lot more Titans come from all directions. Everyone gets ready to fight.
A small titan bites on the Female Titan's leg; everyone starts fighting the Titans trying to kill the Female Titan. Ervin looks down and orders everyone to back away. Levi latches on to a tree near Ervin.
Ervin: (looks at the Titans eating the Female Titan)
Levi: (breathes heavily with evaporating Titan blood on his face)
Ervin: We've been bested…we need to go home. Now.
Levi: (looks at Ervin) Don't give me that crap Ervin. Not now, not yet.
Ervin: You know it Levi…it was prepared to take chances. Our best bet is to go back to the Walls. (starts thinking about how the Colossal Titan disappeared)
Levi: (nods) I know. (looks away) I'll go get my team.
Ervin: Wait. Restock your blades and refill your gas.
Levi: (looks back at Ervin) Why? I can do with what I have.
Ervin: Because I said so, and that's an order. (swings away)
Levi: (sighs and goes to refill everything)
Eld: (sees a green signal) Looks like we're done. Let's go! (swings away)
Everyone follows Eld until they see another green signal.
Kaiias: (sees the green signal and feels sick)
Gunta: Looks like captain wants us to go to him. Lets go.
Kaiias: Wait!
Everyone looks at Kaiias.
Kaiias: (remembers Gunta dying first) Let me lead. Just in case a Titan comes up. So I'll die first.
Kaiias leads.
Eren: (swings behind Kaiias and yells to him) Kaiias! Gut feeling?
Kaiias: (doesn't answer when he sees a figure)
Gunta: (sees a person) That must be Levi. (swings towards it)
Kaiias: (sees Gunta going towards the person) Shit! No!
Person: (kills Gunta by slitting his throat)
Eren: GUNTA! (swings to him)
Kaiias: Eren no! (grabs Eren and throws him) Keep going!
Eld: Who the hell is that?
Person: (chases them)
Eld: Shit!
Petra: Is that the Female Titan?
Kaiias: Yes! I know it is!
Eren: (looks back in horror)
Kaiias: (looks down and looks back up) I'm going!
Eren: (looks at him) Are you crazy? You'll get killed!
Kaiias: So what? I'll at least slow it down!
Oluo: No point!
Person: (disappears behind a tree and transforms)
Eld: Shit! Everyone go!
Petra: (gasps and swings faster)
Eren: No…(turns but goes the same the way) I'll kill you! I swear I will! (gets ready to bite his thumb)
Petra: Eren no! We can't put you at risk!
Kaiias: She's right Eren! You don't even know if you'll control it again!
Eren: (looks at Kaiias) Wh…what is that supposed to mean…?
Kaiias: It's not that I don't trust your power I'm saying that we should at least wait until you know how to for sure!
Oluo: Stop fighting! It's just gonna get us killed!
Kaiias: (looks at Oluo) Your right! Let's take it out!
Petra: No! You have to stay with Eren! We'll take it out!
Kaiias: (looks down and looks back up) Fine. I trust you guys.
Eren: (looks at everyone)
Petra: Eren! Trust us! We can do it!
Eren: (looks down and looks at the Female Titan) Shit…(turns around) I believe in the Levi squad! Good luck!
Eren and Kaiias go while the rest of the Levi squad head for the Female Titan.
Eld goes for the Female Titan.
Female Titan: (tries to grab Eld)
Eld: (backs off and lets Petra and Oluo come behind him)
Petra and Oluo both cut the Female Titan's eyes, making her blind.
Female Titan: (covers her nape and backs to a tree)
Eld: That's not gonna help you! (signals to Oluo and Petra)
Everyone starts cutting the Female Titan's arms until they finally fall.
Eren: (looks back) Wow…they have her completely useless!
Kaiias: (looks back and sees them) Shit…(looks at Eren) They forgot something!
Eren: (looks at Kaiias) What…?
Kaiias: Her eyes! Only one is steaming!
Eren: (gasps) H…how is that possible?
Kaiias: (thinks and looks back at Eren) Eren, keep going forward! I'm gonna see what I can do! (swings back to them)
Eren: Kaiias wait! (looks down and thinks to himself) I gotta trust them…I'm making the right decision…(turns back)
Eld: (goes for her muscles supporting her neck) Say goodbye to you're nape!
Female Titan: (opens one eye and bites Eld in half, killing him)
Petra: ELD!
Female Titan: (spits the rest of Eld out)
Eren: (screams and starts swinging the other way)
Petra: How is that even possible? (sees the Female Titan's one eye) How can she channel her energy into one eye? (starts swinging away)
Female Titan: (chases after Petra)
Oluo: (starts swinging towards Petra) Pull it together Petra!
Kaiias: (starts cutting random parts of the Female Titan's body, causing the Female Titan to slow down and allowing Petra to get some distance)
Female Titan: (tries to fight Kaiias then ignores him and goes for Petra)
Kaiias: Shit…(swings after Petra)
Petra: (looks behind her) This is the end…
Kaiias: (swings to Petra) Petra! We don't have much time! (reaches out his hand)
Female Titan: (tries to kick them)
Kaiias: (pushes off of the Female Titans foot, sending him and Petra flying through the air, causing Petra to break her leg, and Kaiias to hurt the same arm again)
Oluo: NO!
Kaiias: (gets up slowly) Petra…you okay?
Petra: (sits up and nods) My leg though…
Kaiias: Stay here. She thinks we're dead. I'll come back when the coast is clear. (swings away)
Oluo: (gets angry and latches onto the Female Titan's nape) Now…DIEEE! (tries to cut through the nape)
Female Titan: (hardens her skin around her nape, breaking Oluo's blades)
Oluo: My…my blades didn't…(gets kicked really hard by the Female Titan, causing his blood to go over the Trees and dies instantly)
Female Titan: (turns to Eren)
Eren: (lands on a tree) You…killed them all…
Kaiias: Eren wait! (lands beside him)
Eren: K…Kaiias…?
Kaiias: (nods) I'm fine. So is Petra. Her leg is broken though. (looks at the Female Titan) Don't transform yet.
Eren: What? Why not?
Kaiias: (draws his swords) Cause I'm not done yet…
Eren: She's unstoppable! You can't take her on alone!
Kaiias: (looks back at Eren) That's an order! We can't have you losing this fight! We know she's after you! End of story! (looks down and looks back up) Eren. Trust me. If I at least hit her good once, that'll be enough… (swings away)
Female Titan: (starts regenerating her arms and eye)
Kaiias: (swings behind her and draws his swords quietly) Okay, just get her legs, and get out. Let Eren do all the work, but, if I see an opportunity, go for it. (jumps and swings towards her)
Female Titan: (hears Kaiias, turns to him, and swings at him)
Kaiias: (dodges her hand and goes straight for her legs) Guess who's back?
Female Titan: (jumps up and tries to land on Kaiias)
Kaiias: (thinks to himself) Annie…you're not gonna kill me! (backs into her leg and slices her leg, causing her to fall)
Female Titan: (looks up)
Eren: Whoa…he's…he's winning…
Female Titan: (regenerates her arms, falls to her back, and swings at Kaiias)
Kaiias: (gets caught off guard and gets grabbed)
Female Titan: (tries to kill Kaiias)
Kaiias: (cuts out of her hand, cuts all the way up her arm, and slices at her eye) Take this! (swings up in a tree to restock his blades)
Female Titan: (regenerates her other eye, regenerates her leg, stands up, and tries to hit Kaiias)
Kaiias: (jumps out of the way but hits his bad arm on a tree) Argh! (falls to the ground)
Female Titan: (raises her leg towards Kaiias)
Eren watches as Kaiias fights the Female Titan.
Kaiias: (sits up and swings out from under the Female Titan's foot) I'm not done yet! (swings to her face)
Female Titan: (backs away and tries to hit him with the other arm)
Kaiias: (looks surprised, tries to move out of the way, but gets hit hard by the female Titan, sending him flying through the air, breaking his ODM gear, and crashes hard on a tree)
Eren: K…Kaiias…(starts remembering all the good times with Kaiias) He…he's alive…he has to be…(swings over to where Kaiias is to see him in a pool of his own blood) K…Kaiias…?
Eren gets no answer.
Eren: (starts crying) Kaiias…please…(starts pushing on his back) Kaiias! Wake up! You can't be dead! KAIIAS! (gets angry, stands up, and looks at the Female Titan) I'm…(swings up and goes for the Female Titan) Gonna…
Female Titan: (starts regenerating everything)
Eren: KILL YOU! (transforms and yells loudly)
Mikasa: (hears Eren's roar) Eren…? (swings in that direction)
Levi: (hears Eren's roar) Shit. This can't be good. (swings towards the roar)
Eren: (runs towards the Female Titan and tries to punch her)
Female Titan: (dodges all of his attacks)
Eren tries to fight the Female Titan but she is too fast, even without an arm. The Female Titan finally falls and Eren gets on top of her.
Eren: (tries to punch her)
Female Titan: (dodges his attack, causing him to break his hand)
Eren: I should have killed you…I made the decision to trust my team mates…and they're all dead…(roars and tries to punch the Female Titan but misses again, causing his other arm to break)
Levi swings until he sees Gunta's dead body. He feels bad but he still keeps the same facial expression even when he sees Eld and Oluo's dead bodies.
Levi: (has a grim expression on his face when he sees Kaiias' body and kneels to his body)
Kaiias: (opens one eye barely and moves a little) P…petra…
Levi: (looks surprised)
Kaiias: (breathes heavily) P…petra…she's…(coughs out blood) alive…
Levi: (nods) Where?
Kaiias: (tries to point but loses his strength)
Levi: (grabs Kaiias' hand) Don't do that. Stop it.
Kaiias: (looks at Levi with a hazy vision) I'm…
Levi: You know you can fight it. You've fought pain before. (takes out a towel) This will help, it's also gonna hurt. (touches Kaiias's arm)
Kaiias: (breathes in heavily)
Levi ties Kaiias's arm where he's bleeding.
Kaiias: (clenches his teeth)
Levi: There. Now, tell me where Petra is so I can help her…
Kaiias: (gains a little strength and points) That way…
Levi: (nods and stands up) I'll come back for you Kaiias. I promise…(swings to where Petra is)
Kaiias: (loses all strength and faints)
Eren: I'm…going…to kill you…(regenerates his hands) Once my hand is healed…(starts losing control a little) I'm going to kill you! And then devour you!
Female Titan: (regenerates everything and starts fighting Eren)
Eren: (struggles to keep up with her)
The Female Titan ends up kicking Eren's head off.
Female Titan: (bites off Eren's nape and takes Eren away)
Mikasa: (sees Eren get eaten) Eren…(gets angry and swings towards the Female Titan)
Levi: (wraps cloth around Petra's bleeding arm) There. (looks at the Female Titan and starts swinging towards there)
Mikasa: GIVE HIM BACK! (starts slicing random parts of the Female Titan)
Female Titan: (starts limping while running)
Mikasa: (slices her leg)
Female Titan: (falls and covers her nape)
Mikasa: (tries to cut her nape but breaks her blades, and latches onto a tree) My blades didn't work…hang on Eren…I know you're alive…(draws her swords)
Female Titan: (swings for Mikasa)
Mikasa: (dodges her fist)
Female Titan: (runs away)
Mikasa: (yells and swings towards her) GET BACK HERE! (gets grabbed by Levi)
Levi: We'll stay behind for now.
