"WHAT DO WE WANT?"
"DEAD SOLDIERS!"
"WHEN DO WE WANT THEM?"
"NOW!"
This was the chant that was waking everybody early in the morning. Tons of transtitans were roaming the streets with their peaceful slogan drawing attention to their cause every 5 minutes...because it was absolutely important, not annoying at all.
"Nobody cares!"
"Shut the hell up!"
Obviously, the movement had great support from citizens. Everybody loved it and agreed with it or else they were bigots, and being a bigot is a crime worse than murder. Speaking of murder, last night a white truck killed many citizens in the city center like...it was alive, or at least that's what the news said. But people speculate that somebody was actually driving the truck. Though, enough with that truck. Titan Lives Matter members were so upset that media covered this tragic event reverting the attention from them that they hijacked a moment of mourning dedicated to the victims. They may hijack this story too.
However, Eren didn't care about labels and people looked at him both in disgust and admiration because of it. He only cared about humanity and if him being labelled as a hater would save people, he will do it. Since his speech, people have threatened to kill him, beat him, humiliate him, bully him, all because he said he wanted to build a wall to keep the dangerous titans away. I guess his life doesn't matter even though he's a titanshifter, because he has the wrong opinions. Even some of his friends told him that what he was doing was madness, a lone warrior against the world that wouldn't win the election and wouldn't build a wall because that's not realistic (even though ancestors have built many great walls with the technology of thousands of years ago). But now it was too late to go back or to go soft.
Meanwhile, Levi was returning from the market when he accidentally bumped into TLM.
"Look! A soldier! Get him!", yelled a transtitan.
Due to the traumas that Levi has experienced battling actual titans, he acted instinctively when he saw the hoard approaching and he quickly grabbed his blades ready to fight.
"Everybody! We found the bigot, look! Look at how he grabbed his blades to kill us all when we were just minding our own business! OPPRESSION!"
People on the street didn't actually witness the whole scene, but they believed the words. Consequently, they were preparing to beat the hell out of the poor captain, that will sure teach him a lesson of not having the wrong opinion...or career.
All of this was happening during the second part of the campaign. In the the first one, we just got a brief idea of who the candidates were and what they stood for. Now it is time to see how they handle up-to-date events by speaking publicly of last night's attack and other current issues. The first one to talk was Hange, obviously, because women go first.
"So Ms. Hange, why do you think that tragic event happened last night? "
"As you may know, the truck was white, and everything white is the enemy of our society"
"But that truck has killed people indiscriminately"
"I would have believed it if the truck killed only white cis hetero men. But among the victims you will find women, which means the truck was misogynistic; you will find queers, which means the truck was a homophobe; and you will find other races, which means the truck was racist too. I conclude that this was nothing but a senseless hate crime premeditated by patriarchy"
The audience was silent, but quickly applauded after a group of soldiers pointed their guns.
The news channel that was broadcasting the event quoted her 'Patriarchy caused last night's mass murder'
Then, the moderator turned to ask Eren the same question.
"So people, I heard you know a lot about trucks, you know..bing bing bong! Anyway, you're smart enough to know that trucks don't drive themselves, surely it was someone!"
A loud gasp could be heard from the back of the crowd. People in the back, who happened to have cat glasses, weird colored hair and a small weight problem...alright let's be honest...it was a HUGE weight problem, started gossiping about how insane and wrong Eren sounded...and hateful, don't forget hateful...and bigoted...and xenophobic...and sexist...and racist...and misogynistic...and patronizing etc.
"And I suspect the driver of that truck happened to be a radical titanist..."
Banshee screeching was filling the air with boos and angry yelling. The multicolored people started calling him a liar because he had no evidence to make such an outrageous statement, even though the truck's plate number was 'C0L0S4L 1S 7H3 GR3AT3ST '. After all, titanism is a religion of peace as a history of humans devouring and towns destroying shows. Then, somebody wearing a titan costume...I mean naked as hell... threw a rock at Eren's head and got him into a coma.
As he was slowly reopening his eyes, all that Eren could see was the pure color of white. He was in a state of lightheadedness and started floating everywhere. When he looked around he could see different shapes and colors gaining contour, forming images of a million bricks sitting on each other to recreate the beloved wall that had been broken in his childhood. It brought tears to his eye and made him more ambitious to build a greater wall. Suddenly, he saw the silhouette of a hairy fat gorilla approaching from beyond the wall. He thought it was an enemy until it spoke out
"Eeereen...Avenge me Eeeereeen!"
"Who are you, Beast Titan?"
"I am the modern prophet, Harambe, who has died for your memes!"
"What? You were the one killed at that zoo because people thought you attacked a child, right?"
"Riiight. But see, I was framed for a crime I didn't commit. This will happen to you too, young man, if you aren't careful in the president run. Everybody knew that I wasn't attacking the child, but I was killed anyway because of a reason media won't tell you"
"I'm literally talking to a gorilla...Am I in a coma or something?"
"In reality, I knew Hange's darkest secrets that could make her go to prison, but she was afraid I would tell the world, and ,in fact, I was planning to do that"
"Whatever. How do I get out of here? Humanity needs me"
"You need me. I will send you back to the world of the awaken if you let me in your mind to guide you and help you defeat Hange"
"This isn't happening. This isn't real. This is just a dream", murmured Eren as he curled up in ball looking very distressed.
