Castle Utgard, year 850
The tower trembled, and the two people looking over the edge nearly fell over the edge and into the titan mess below. Christa screamed, but was caught by Reiner's free arm. "T-thanks, Reiner." However, a shot of pain coursed through her leg and she yelped. "Ow! Reiner, my leg!" Before she could fall over, Connie caught her.
"It's ok, Reiner, I got her, you can let go!" He said. Reiner seemed to be dazed, as he held tighter to Christa's leg.
Allen narrowed his eyes. "Reiner!"
He seemed to wake from his stupor. "Oh! Sorry…" He let go, and Christa was able to recover.
"It's ok. You saved me." She said, while she was being helped up by Connie.
"Christa. Did you know…? About Ymir being a titan?" Reiner asked.
Allen and Kanda approached the edge to watch Ymir annihilate the other titans. "I didn't. We were always so close… but… for things to turn out like this…" Christa muttered. "I can't believe it. We were together for three years! I just don't understand… so that's Ymir?" She watched Ymir smash a titan's face. "It just… can't be… I don't want it to be."
"So that means she knew one of the greatest secrets in the world. Jeez, I never even suspected it." Reiner sighed.
"She should've told us and contributed to the corps, like Eren. But… maybe she didn't because she couldn't?" Bertoldt wondered.
"Wait! Eren didn't know that he could become a titan, right? But… somehow… I think… Ymir knew about her powers." Connie said. "Which… is she…?"
Allen wondered if this was going to be the same reaction if he ever revealed himself.
"'Which?!' Are you saying that Ymir might be an enemy to humanity?" Christa asked.
"Yeah… thinking back on it, she always seemed unfazed, no matter what the situation. You know…" He surprisingly glanced back to Allen. Allen raised an eyebrow. "You acted the same. Perhaps it was because you guys were hiding power."
"I assure you, I'm as normal as the next human." Allen said calmly. Connie just huffed.
"Well, the point is," Connie said, turning back to Christa. "We never knew what she was really thinking.
"What could Ymir's goal be?" Bertoldt asked.
Suddenly, a titan grabbed onto Ymir's arm, and bit into it. Christa cried, "YMIR!" but Ymir was really ok. She was able to bite the titan's arm off, and escape from its clutches. She leapt onto the tower and grabbed hold, kicking away a titan that seemed too close, and using it for leverage to jump.
Everyone watched with their breaths held. A titan grabbed onto Ymir's leg, so she was stopped mid-jump, but still out of the others' reach. She held tightly onto the wobbly bricks of the tower.
Much to everyone's shock, Ymir let go and fell into the titan's grasp. "What?!" Christa cried.
"She just… let go?!" Connie cried disbelievingly. "Why? Could she be worrying about damaging the tower?"
"That's it…" Christa breathed. "She should be able to use her titan powers to escape this place by herself. There's no way she could defeat all of the titans with a body that small. But she's still fighting, which means she's risking her own life to protect us."
And, since this is Ymir… Allen thought. She would want to do this on her own.
"Things aren't looking good for her." Reiner commented.
"Why… at this rate, she'll… Ymir…" Christa's voice wavered as she watched her friend struggling against the titans on her own. Christa stepped onto the ledge, and yelled to the top of her lungs. "Ymir, don't die! Don't die here!" Connie attempted to pull her back down, but Christa just pushed him away. "Why're you trying to act like a saint?! You really want to look cool as you die that much?! You jerk! We both know you're rotten to the core! Are you such a moron you think you could still get to heaven?! LIVE FOR YOUR OWN SAKE! If protecting the tower's going to kill you, THEN JUST SMASH IT TO PIECES!"
Allen's eyes widened. "You know, that gate thing of yours can be really useful right now, Moyashi." Kanda said stoically, as if the situation they were in didn't waver him at all.
"It still needs to charge, I can't quite use it yet." Allen sighed. "And the name's ALLEN Bakanda."
The tower shook. Allen looked over, and saw that Ymir was in fact, tearing the castle apart, brick by break and throwing those said bricks back at the titans. Connie held tightly to the edge. "H-hey! Is she actually smashing it?!"
Christa threw her arms up in the air. "That's it Ymir!"
Ymir's face loomed over them, causing them to calm down in shock. "Grab on to live." She said.
Wait… She can talk in her titan form?! Allen thought, his mouth wide open. However, everyone obeyed, and grabbed ahold to Ymir's hair. The tower was beginning to fall onto the cluster of titans, and everyone held tightly for dear life. Allen used his Clown Belt to fasten everyone for good measure.
After the tower collapsed and everyone was deemed safe, they jumped off of Ymir. "I can't believe it… you wanted to pin those titans under the tower…? Talk about a crazy plan." Connie said.
Everything seemed safe.
However, the ground began to shake, and soon the titans rose from the debris of the castle. "The titans, they're getting back up!" Connie cried.
"But…" Christa wavered.
"Hey ugly! Hurry up and finish them off!" Connie yelled after Ymir, who had bounded off into the direction of the titans.
She bit into the nape of one of the titans. However, after that one collapsed, another one grabbed her hair and swung her to the ground. "This is bad." Connie said. "Uh, bean sprout, I don't suppose you can do anything?"
Allen's eye twitched. "Sure, I can."
The titans pinned Ymir to the ground and began eating her alive. Allen activated his innocence, and a white cape appeared from thin air. A silver mask covered the side of his face, and his left arm disappeared, changing into a broadsword.
Without further ado, he jumped into the cluster of titans using his Clown belt.
The sheer amount overwhelmed him. He had killed three, but there were still more. At least I'm ahead of Bakanda now. He thought victoriously.
However, at the corner of his eye, he saw Christa approach the titans that were trying to get to Ymir. "No! Stay back, Christa!" Allen cried.
"Wait! I still haven't…" A titan grabbed Christa and lifted her into the air.
Then, suddenly, someone else came to save her before Allen could. The titan immediately collapsed. "Mikasa!" Christa cried as the new figure landed onto the ground.
"It… it's you! Why are you here?" She asked.
"Get back, Christa. Everyone else, too. Leave this to us."
Allen was glad that the reinforcements had come. Lavi and Lenalee had also showed up. Before long, the titans were wiped out, and the perimeter was secured.
He wiped the dust off his hands after deactivating his innocence, and went off to meet with everyone else. "Eren!" Connie cried.
"Guys!" Eren greeted back. "Oh, and the Black Order too?" He said after noticing Allen and Kanda.
Connie explained to Eren what had happened. Mikasa and Armin also listened in. "What…?! Ymir…?!" Armin exclaimed.
They turned to see where Ymir was lying. She was greatly damaged, but still breathing, and knowing that she was a titan–shifter, everyone knew she could recover swiftly.
For some reason fanfiction sensors jerk in private messaging. Sometimes I forget to go back and change it after uploading, lol. Anyway, the next chapter is going to be FUN. please review.
