Here is chapter 5.
I do not own Inazuma Eleven or Attack on Titan.
Enjoy!
Ch 5: The Titan that is Rod Reiss.
"Have you either wondered what is beyond the sky? If there is life on other planets?" The figure said and the next thing he know Levi had grabbed him by the neck.
" Spill everything" Levi demanded.
"Oh, so the information I gave you last time was correct?" The figure said, speaking perfectly well despite the hand squeezing his throat. "You know if you kill me, you won't get any more information"
Levi dropped the figure, knowing he was right and said "Tell me everything"
The figure went to rub it's throat and said in a hoarse tone. "Well I can't tell you all of it, what's the fun in that?" ignoring the glare sent his way. "For today I will tell you this"
Levi listened with rapid attention.
" Eren Yeager has two types of memories in his head. His and someone else and because of that, Eren is going to be used to revive 'God'" The figure said.
"You mean some whack job is going to try and summon 'God' using Eren and what's this about Eren having someone else's memories?. What a load of bullshit" Levi said.
"Believe what you will but you will find out in all good time. Now as for the Ape, the key to finding its identity lies in getting the pictures of all the doctors and physicians that are in history and try to match them to the great ape. I guarantee you will find a match, oh, and make sure you listen with your ears. You will find some pretty interesting knowledge." The figure said before seeming looking at something on its wrist. "Well, that's all for today. Bye"
Levi was forced awake before he could ask any more questions.
God, I hate that guy.
# Scene Change#
"Can you stop with that look already!"
Ghost blinked innocently and said. "What look?"
Jean irritation flared as he yelled. "The look that says 'I've just had mind blowing sex and you haven't' you've had recently!" those who were drinking water spat it out.
"Jean!" Armin yelled, a red hue on his cheeks.
"What? I'm just bothered by the fact that someone this feminine" pointing rudely at Ghost. "Has become a man before I have! I mean, come on! I thought that I would be the first of the guys to do it but now I'm outclassed by someone who is barely male!" ranting on and one about the unfairness of the world not noticing the darkened expression on Ghost face with having his manhood challenged.
" Really? The way I see It, it's you who is barely male with a stumble hanging between your legs" Ghost said casually and a tick mark formed on Jean head while Armin drew away from Jean while the rest watched in amusement.
" I DO NOT! I bet yours is like an extra piece of skin!" Jean shot back and Ghost smirked.
"Really? Let's see who's bigger" He said and Jean shot back. "You're on"
They both started to take off their trousers.
They both got whacked on the head by an irritated Misaka.
"Do that somewhere else!" Misaka yelled, with a dark look in her eyes and they both cowered.
" Fine," They said in unison and went to find a room.
"They're both idiots," Hange said.
They next thing they all heard was Jean shout "HOLY SHIT! WHAT IS THAT!?" before Ghost strolled as if nothing had happened while Jean came in seemly traumatized and mumbling something about a tank attached to a small body.
Despite their curiousness about what happened, they didn't ask.
Levi came in and despite his usual blank face, they know he was irritated about something after all Levi has been sleeping a lot lately.
Ghost hid a smirk behind a cup of water, everything was on schedule.
Armin suddenly got up and walked out of the barn they were resting in with a look that said, he was clearly taking his first human kill hard and Levi went after him.
10 minutes later only Levi came back.
Levi said, "Fideo, Misaka, come with me. The rest stay on guard. Where going to capture some MPs" and Ghost immediately got his gear on and followed after the captain along with Misaka.
#With Armin#
Armin felt a lot better after the talk with Levi and was thirsty so he went to collect some water however when he turned around he did not expect to see two people behind him.
"NOW!" Levi yelled and all three of the jumped off a tree branch and tackled the two people to the ground and put knives at the back of both the MPs necks while Levi pushed one against the tree. "Fideo make sure there are no Titians coming this way"
Fideo, nodded and made sure the Titian avoided this place.
Levi then turned to their two hostages and said. "Remove all your clothes and weapons or I'll slit your throat" Misaka and Fideo took the uniforms and the weapons of their hostages. Then Levi came up with a quick plan to infiltrate the military police.
"We need to move now before the Military police come" Levi instructed and both of the hostages were moved to a much more secure and less open location.
" Capitan, what do we do with them?" Potato girl asked but before Levi could open his mouth.
" Who do you think you are! The Survey Corps are responsible for thousands of deaths, don't act so high and might." Hitch yelled, summing up her courage while Ghost was busy wondering how a human could be so loud.
"Tell me, do you know about Annie Leonhart and what happened to her?" Levi asked, staying calm and collected.
" How should we know? There hasn't been anything from her for a long time! She probably got eaten by a Titian!" Hitch said.
Fideo hid the snort, it really never crossed their minds that there were traitors inside the walls.
" Let me tell you, Anne did not die because she was eaten by a Titian" Levi said, bending down, getting confused looks from Hitch and her companion.
"Annie Leonhart is the female Titian" Getting shocked looks from the pair." We will release you as soon as we leave" Levi promised.
"Um, excuse me" Marlo interrupts Levi. "What happened to Dimo Reeves?" he asked, depending on the answer he would choose which side he was on.
Levi looked him straight in the eye and said. "He was murdered by the First Interior squad" and that sealed Marlo loyalty to the Survey Corps.
"Let me infuriate the Military Corps for you" Marlo offered.
"No" Levi answered. "We don't know if you'll betray us later on. Sasha tie them up"
Sasha did as she was told.
"Capitan, let me get rid of them, they can't be trusted." Jean offered and the hostages eyes widened as they started struggling to get out of their ropes.
"Alright" Levi said and they all left Jean to get 'rid' of them.
# First Squad compound#
They arrived outside the Compound thanks to Marlo and Hitch selling the first squad out.
"This time, we will strike, first. Is everyone ready?" Levi asked and they all put on their black cloaks.
They took down the two guards at the front and captured the commander in charge of guard duty.
"Where are Eren and 'Krista'!" Levi demanded to the chief as he got out his blade.
"Okay! I will tell you! But first, I want to ask what happened to my men" The man asked which was a refreshing change from the self absorbed people he deals with everyday.
"They are not dead but a bit banged up" Levi said.
"Hump, that surprising. There are many how don't know about the First division squad and yet they are cut up as well" The man sneered.
" We are truly sorry for that" Levi said, while kicked the man in the mouth and said. "Where are Eren and 'Krista'?"
"Go to hell! all the Survey Corps can ever do is run circles not accomplishing anything while betraying their own comrades and finally they get what's coming to them, first with your leader, Edwin Smith" Using the name in the act of intimidation. " If you're smart you'll give up and surrender to execution so that the rest of your squad can live, I will offer to help negotiate with my superiors."
"Where are Eren and 'Krista'" Levi asks again.
"So you're willing to sacrifice everyone for the this useless struggle?" The man spat.
Levi slammed the man into a tree and keeps him there "The Monarchy would never pass up the chance to eliminate the Survey Corps so surrendering is useless" he broke the man arm with a sickening snap and an ear piercing scream comes out of the man. "Where are Eren and 'Krista'?" he asks for the fourth time.
" I DON'T KNOW!" The man finally breaks, seeing Levi was quite willing to snap every bone in his body and Ghost took notes, Levi was a interrogation gold mine. "Kenny Ackerman doesn't tell us anything!"
Ackerman? Levi, Misaka and Ghost wondered meaning Kenny the Reaper was related to Levi by blood.
" Ackerman?" Levi said, the figure words about him listening in, was playing over and over again in his mind. He was defiantly learning some interesting things lately. "Come on, you must have a good idea" he said.
"Go to hell" The man spat, forgetting Levi had just broken his arm.
Levi reminded him by saying. "Tell me or I'll break the rest of your body, you'll never be able to do anything again and would need people to help you with the simplest task"
"Your insane!" The man shouts, expecting Levi to make a comeback to that remark.
"Targets have been sighted!" Sarah announced and they all hid themselves as their hostage continued to shout how the Survey Corps were evil and were going to get what they dissevered.
It turned out to be Marlo, Hitch and Henge and the man stopped talking seeing it wasn't his comrades and that reinforcement for his captivity had just come.
Henge came with good news, in her hand was a letter that said, the Survey Corps were framed and that they were free of all charges, the newspaper were forced to print false information and it revealed the true culprit, King Fritz was nothing more than a puppet.
You could see most of them were celebrating.
" and what did you do?" Levi asked, extremely curious, Henge explained that it was the power of certain individuals and Levi apologised for Keiji, Nifa and the goggled member death which Henge smiled grimly at.
" Guys, I think I know were Eren and Historia are" Henge said and they all listened with rapid attention and Henge explained the event that happened Five years ago, the day when Maria wall was breached and what happened with the Reiss family.
Ghost listened with rapid attention, he just know that he would finally find out how they were stealing his own people DNA and infusing it into themselves.
If he was luckily he could find the very source and destroy it, along with the humans behind it.
He listened in when Levi explained why the name 'Ackerman' was so important and why the people bearing that name were persecuted, saying they had some great power in them.
The more he listened, the more he just wanted to rush the whole process along and kidnap Levi and 'covert' him over to his side but it would do no good if he had a brainwashed Levi as his fourth power, he would never tap into his true potential so Levi had to come to him on his own and he could tell that Levi was just so close.
Levi needed that finally push to get him to defect and join him.
Just one more push and it had to be something big, for Levi to open his eyes to the truth around him.
They were sent to Reiss Chapel and looked around for anything unusual.
Ghost started knocking on the walls, just like in movies, ignoring the looks he was getting from the rest.
Clunk!
Found it! There was a hallow wall, behind the alter and immediately he pushed the Alter aside to reveal as entrance.
"Nice work" Levi said, before turning to the rest of the group with all the seriousness in the world. "Whatever we find down there, will most likely not end well be prepared to get so blood on your hands" seeing if anyone was backing down.
"Good let's go" Levi and Misaka charged forward first while the rest of them were behind them, potato girl shot a flame arrow at a barrel creating a smoke screen to prevent first squad from seeing where they were and shooting them down.
Levi goes ahead to check how many enemies they were up against and shouts they had 35 people to watch out for while Potato girl shot more arrows.
Suddenly Levi felt like something just grabbed him and when he looked around, there was nobody there!
His eyes widened but he was still been pulled, lead to somewhere.
"Levi I want you to hear this" A voice said and Levi eyes widened, it was the figure voice from his dreams!
"You'll see the true face of the one's you protect today" The voice said and Levi suddenly found himself in a secluded area, a place where nobody could spot him however he had the perfect view of what was happening and within hearing distance.
So he watched the whole scene unfold before his very eyes, he saw how Eren was chained and wasn't even fighting when Historia was full prepared to eat him just to please her father who didn't even love her.
Rod just wanted 'God' to be in his daughter, brainwashing her so that she wouldn't even get rid of the Titian the moment she eats Eren.
He watched how Historia so called father was forcing becoming a Titan onto his own daughter while keeping the fact he didn't want to become a Titan and obtain 'God' since they had the same blood so it would work.
He watched as his mentor was revealed to indeed have the Ackerman name and shout the cold hard truth to Historia who judging by her face refused to listen.
He watched as Kenny went up to Eren and cut his forehead so that he could turn into a Titan and battle against the Titian version of Historia.
Watching all this drama, he didn't know what to feel. Eren was really too kind for his own good and that's what will get him killed one day, Historia on the other hand was so desperate for acceptance from the father who rejected her before she was even out of the womb.
Shouldn't he have stopped being her father, a long time ago?
For goodness sake, she had only met him twice and both times were to make life changing decisions.
Nothing good came from the man and he only cared when he finds use for her.
It was like watching a puppy latch onto steak.
But what was Kenny story in all of this?
Was this what how humanity had become being trapped inside the walls for so long?
Where was the independence and pride in themselves?
Where was the need to be firm when needed?
Wasn't they supposed to help one another and not force people to do things for their own selfish gain?
Was this all humanity amounted to?
It was like watching a sob story.
Meanwhile Ghost found himself seething seeing the origins of how humans became 'Titans'. He turned around and saw the way Levi was looking at the scene before him and smiled, he know exactly what the man was realising now.
Humanity had grown pathetic inside the walls.
Eren was like another version of Endou Mamoru except Eren was driven by revenge but it seems he was on his way to becoming the second coming of Endou Mamoru in this instant.
How he hated it.
He would enjoying ripping Eren heart out when the time came to get bloody.
"See Lavi, this is the true face of the ones you protect. They are all caught up in their own selfish desires while still living in the past" The voice said. "Historia Reiss wants her father acceptance. Rod Reiss wants to summon god, Eren Yeager wants to die because his father sins had been consumed by him. He's not writing the wrongs from his father sin. He's running away from it."
Levi wanted to deny it but the more came out of the voice mouth the more his eyes seemed to be open to the world around him. He was so in thought that he almost missed the moment when Historia cast away here eagerness for her father's love and smashed the needle on the floor"
Levi swore he heard the voice 'tsk' at the action while stating there was still a shinning hope for Humanity with clear dislike in its voice before it said.
"She only changed when she was in a desperate situation, if it wasn't for this or something similar she would have happily been 'Daddy little helper'. People change when they're in a desperate situation. It should not have to be so" The voice said and Levi wanted so badly to draw out his blade and try to kill the voice knowing the voice was right but his morals were being challenged.
"Levi I will leave you for now but I want you to weigh what Humanity has done right and the mistakes it's made. Has there ever been an achievement that hasn't come from individuals such as this man who have a warp sense of self righteousness?" With that Levi got the feeling like voice was gone and Levi was left in his thoughts.
Suddenly heat erupted when Rod turning desperate and licking the contents of the needle that was on the floor.
Levi used his gear to get away fast.
"Dammit!" he said, as a blinding white light appeared and Historia was blown back from the force that erupted but was caught by Misaka while Ghost shouted they needed to get out of here now, while he, Levi, Connie and Jean went to free Eren from the chains.
It was really too bad that Connie couldn't find the right key to unlock the chain.
"Hurry the hell up" Levi said while Jean had the guts to joke and call Eren 'Mr Shirtless' while Levi glared informing them all this was no time for joking because they were in a do or die situation and points to the ceiling that looked nowhere never as solid and steady as it did a minute ago because of how large Rod was becoming.
Connie easily found the key after that and they freed Eren and pulled him away just in a nick of time before a boulder came loose and came down on where Eren used to be.
"Great this is just plain, shitty. The bastard is even bigger than the Colossal Titan" Levi said, noting how huge Rod had become and then to add oil to the fire Rod tries to stand up with his humongous weight, creating more creaks in the ceiling.
"Rod was messed up from the beginning! He was just as ignorant about Titian as the rest of us" Kenny said coming into view, he didn't want to die yet.
Ghost wondered how he would do if he turned into his real form and tangled with the Human titan and thought against it because what he had seen already, this one didn't have an underbelly so all the organ were on display for the whole world to see and he didn't want mysterious juice on his hands.
"There is no escape route!" Jean said and they all looked at Eren for a way out and Ghost watched as the so called 'Humanity only hope' basically had a mental break down and Levi mouth thinned with a certain look in his eyes as he looked at Eren.
In fact nobody had ever seen that look on his face and it was gone as soon as it appeared making them think they just imagined it.
Eren picks up a bottle called 'Armor' and Ghost fought down the urge to punch him and rip the bottle out of his arms.
It was full of his people DNA but held back and just watched what was happening from afar.
In the end, Eren got sick of them all complaining and ran towards Rod with the bottle and drank it before transforming into his Titan form, nobody saw the hand that grabbed the bottle when it was close to the ground before Eren Titan solidified and spread out like glue creating several pillar and Ghost hid the horrified look he had, seeing his own people bones and body structure came out this way.
He was ready to kill ever single last one of the humans on this planet while of course keeping Levi alive.
Misaka and Jean ended up releasing Eren from his harden Titan form, a couple of hours later.
Sasha came down to inform them all, they had found a way out with Connie already on the surface, they all followed the route and they too found themselves blessed with seeing the sun again.
They found that the cave they were just in was nothing more than a crater now.
"So where is Rod Reiss?" Ghost asked.
Eren pointed at something and he turned around.
He saw a giant Titian that was crawling in certain direction face down, twice the size of the Colossal Titian and emitting heat fumes.
It was at that moment that he realised because he was cold blooded if he even got close to that thing he would be cooked alive.
He refused to die.
He had to find the Box.
And that's a wrap!
I hope you like this chapter! It seems what Ghost is saying is really getting to Levi know and it looks like it won't be long before Levi agrees to be Ghost fourth power. I wonder who remembers Ghost 'Box' and what it does? Next chapter will Survey Corps and Ghost with the Box up against the Titan Rod Reiss. Will this battle be what make Levi doubt the Humanity he knows? Review/ Favourite and Follow!
