Author's Note: I want to give a HUGE shoutout to all of the people who are giving me inspiration to keep on writing. Love you guys tons!
You pressed the play button, and Eren sprung back into action, with his team.
'What the heck happened to me, and everyone else!? It was like before, except this time, we were all frozen, like in time. I wonder if Armin felt it too, or if it was just me...' Eren thought to himself, a bit troubled by what happened. 'Well, no need to stress myself over with this because humanity needs our help!' Eren is remembering all about his training, and lessons that he has done up until now, in which they learned about which spot is a titan's most vulnerable, which is the nape of its neck. The next thing he saw horrified him. One by one, all of his comrades, Thomas Wagner, Nac Tius, Mina Carolina, and last but not least, Mylius Zeramuski. Each of their bodies eaten by, or destroyed by the titans, with no remains of them left except their shed blood.
Eyes wide open, you watch in horror as Eren's teammates die beside him, and as Eren is helpless to do a single thing.
As Armin comes after Eren, a titan grabs him, and picks him up, as he is frozen with fear.
You scream, wanting to let Eren know that his best friend is about to get eaten, while Eren's in his daze. As Armin slides down into the titan, all you can do is watch. You tap on the screen, trying to wake him out of his daze, and he at last comes back into the real world. You see how Armin showed Eren a book about the real world, and you wished with all of your heart that they could just come into your world, and see everything that they want to see for themselves.
Eren, now determined, stands up, using his one leg left, grabbing onto Armins hand tightly, struggling to hold tight because of the titan's saliva. Pulling Armin, he threw him out of the titan, struggling to get out himself.
You felt so relieved for Armin, and you sent your happiness through the screen, where it was sure to reach Eren. Your moment for being relieved was short lived, as it showed Eren having a hard time getting out of the titan's mouth. His eyes, filled with a resolution to see the outside world, and with a hint of fear.
Eren was really glad about saving his friend, but knew it wouldn't last for too long. He knew what would happen, but he refused to believe that it would, struggling to get his words out, with the knot stuck in his throat.
You were fearful for him. His eyes seemed like they were trying to convey something to you, but you were too worried.
As the mouth closed on him, Eren closed his eyes, knowing that this would be the last of him. Everything seemed to go in slow motion for him.
You felt tears in your eyes, as he struggled, pressing your palm to the screen, trying to send one last, painful message. Feeling that he got it, you blinked, but not slowly enough to miss where the titan bit down, separating Eren's arm from his body, and seeing the titan swallow him. You closed your eyes, feeling something prickly and wet coming down. Your hands instinctively raise up to touch your face, only to find a stream of tears coming down. Crying, you look at Armin, feeling his pain and sorrow. You close your eyes, and close the computer screen down at the credits, wishing you could unsee that. You were going to confess soon, but were just too nervous to yet. You loved Eren, and forever will. You knew that now it was too late to do anything, so you laid helplessly on your arms, crying your eyes out, until there was no more that would come out, and then you just stared into space, thinking empty, and meaningless thoughts.
Next time: "Eren? EREN!? Is that really you?" you ask, still in a daze.
