//------------------------------// // Charge // Story: Attack on Titan 2: Clash of the Titans // by Gojizilla54 //------------------------------// Ymir's Titan swung from tree to tree like a chimpanzee. As Ymir's Titan got close to Reiner and Bertholdt's position, both of them spotted her swinging towards their direction. "Here she comes, Reiner," spotted Bertholdt. "Right," said Reiner. Reiner turned around and leaped off the branch. As Reiner fell, he held his hand upon the base of a blade sticking out of one of his sheaths. Halfway down, he sliced his hand open upon the blade, causing his body to glow yellow and burst with steam. With a bright beam of light shinning down, Reiner had transformed into the Armored Titan once again. With no time to lose, the Armored Titan started to take off into the open field. Bertholdt leaped off the branch and launched a hook, which grappled on to one of the Armored Titan's armored plate. Bertholdt landed on the left shoulder of the Armored Titan, while Ymir's Titan held on to the Armored Titan's right. The Armored Titan tried to maintain a safe speed for Bertholdt and Ymir's Titan to hold on. The others watched in disbelief as Eren is once again carried away by the warriors. "Oh no..." muttered Armin. "Eren's being taken away!" "Oh come, all this time and Eren is still getting carried away!" groaned Sour Sweet. On the other side of the forest, Erwin heard footsteps behind him and looked back. The first thing he saw was the Armored Titan's departure from the forest. Erwin then quickly though of a new plan. "All squads!" called Erwin, raising up his sword. "Let the Titans chase after you! Follow my lead!" "Erwin..." muttered an MP. "You demon! Are you trying to use us as bait again?!" "That's not my intention!" answered Erwin. "The Military Police have fought well! Now serve your duty as soldiers! The Armored Titan plans to escape with Eren! We have to stop him no matter what!" The allied soldiers started to chase down the Armored Titan, while being tailed by a horde of Titans. As the Armored Titan continued to run off, the allied soldiers were giving chase to him. "He's not fast enough to escape!" stated Jean. "We'll catch up!" "This time, I won't hesitate," declared Mikasa. "I'll kill them both, I swear! And if Ymir gets in my way, she's asking for it, too. No matter what it takes. I will!" "If everything goes wrong, we'll face it together!" declared Rainbow Dash. Back at the Armored Titan, Ymir's Titan opened her mouth up. She put her hand over her mouth. Bertholdt looked as Ymir finally opened its mouth and retched, spitting out Historia, who was still covered in the titan’s saliva and bile. Historia coughed some saliva and gasped for air as Bertholdt looked to her with surprise. "Christa!" called Bertholdt. Historia began to open her eyes, her vision greeted by Ymir’s Titan’s giant eye as it looked down on her. Historia looked at the Armored Titan, now was the best chance to talk to him, if she gets the chance. Then, Ymir's Titan's nape split open, releasing a plume of steam from the slit that appeared. "Ymir?" Historia exclaimed. Then, Ymir emerged from the nape and coughed and gasped for air. "Ymir!" called Historia. "Christ--" coughed Ymir. "No... Historia. Sorry... for eating you... like that. I bet... you're mad at me." Historia looked beside her to see Bertholdt on the other side of the Armored Titan’s back, Eren strapped to his back. "What is this?" she asked. "What are you doing? We came to rescue you and Er--" "I don't need rescuing!" Ymir interrupted. "Just stay right here. I'm following Reiner and Bertholdt now. You, too. Come with me. There's not future within the walls!" “What?” Tears began to form in Ymir’s eyes as she tried to convince her best friend to do something she didn’t even feel comfortable doing. "Listen to me, Historia," begged Ymir. "Outside the walls isn't as bad as you think. Especially... because there won't be anyone saying that you're better off not being born." "I'm pretty sure Titans won't be saying that to me, because they'll be be too busy trying to eat me!" screamed Historia. "Everyone has at least one or two faults!" shouted Ymir. "If you can just overlook that, they're not so bad after all!" "Ymir! Everything you're saying and doing doesn't make any sense!" shouted Historia. "Could it be... that Reiner and Bertholdt threatened you?" "It's... the reverse," Bertholdt butted in. "Am I right, Ymir?!" Historia screamed at Ymir, ignoring Bertholdt. "I'll fight them with you, so let me out your hand!" Ymir gasped, unsure if she heard Historia correctly or not. “i don't care if there's something you can tell me,” Historia proclaimed. "No matter what happens... I will always be your ally!" Historia and Ymir continued to look at each other with tears in their eyes, each one of them overly gladdened by their feelings for each other. Bertholdt looked behind him, seeing as the soldiers and ponies were close enough for him to recognize some of their faces. "Ymir," called Bertholdt, turning around. "The Scouts have already gotten this close. If only we had run away, we probably would've been able to escape. But because you forced us to bring Christa... at this rate, they'll catch us! Hey, Ymir... are you telling us we did all of that for nothing? Did you change your mind? Is that really what you want? Letting Christa rot within the walls? Don't be stupid! Ymir!' "Ymir!" called Historia. "Hurry up and let me go!" "I can't!" cried Ymir. "Historia... To be honest... the reason I snatched you away... was only... to save myself." Historia’s eyes widened, unsure of Ymir’s intentions. "A long time ago, I stole the Power of the Titans from one of their comrades," stated Ymir. 'There's nothing I can do against them. Sooner or later, they'll kill me. But... if I hand you over and cooperate with them... they said they would see what they could do... and try to make it so my crime goes away. Because you know the secrets of the wall, you're someone important to the Church." Historia then remembers when they were galloping in the open field toward Wall Rose. "Does it... have to do with my family?" asked Historia. "Yeah, it does," answered Ymir. "Once this world started going to hell... I thought being with you would give me insurance in the future," stated Ymir. "I almost died during the battle at that castle... and that feeling scarred me for life. I'm afraid to die... I'll do whatever it takes to live... I'm pathetic... i told myself I was doing it for your sake. But really, I did it for myself. Please, Historia... Please save me!" Ymir's eyes were closed as tears streamed down her face, scared by how her only friend would react. "Didn't I tell you Ymir," cooed Historia. "No matter what happens... I will always be your ally!" Ymir started to smile and got back in her Titan's nape. As Ymir dug in the nape, Historia looked at the Armored Titan, knowing her real feelings. Just then, Eren’s eyes began to open. As his vision adjusted, he looked down at the ground passing him from below, the allied soldiers were galloping just feet behind the Armored Titan. Hannes leapt off his horse and swung right at the back of the Armored Titan’s legs. While Hannes’s swing was strong and accurate, his blades broke as it collided with the armored plates. Hannes slid on the ground and took a tumble. Eren tried to squirm around to get free, then a Scout latched on to the Armored Titan. As he reeled towards the Armored Titan, Ymir's Titan grabbed his wired and threw him to the ground, killing him. Then, Ymir's Titan's left eye was then sliced off. Mikasa then landed on the shoulder of the Armored Titan and charged towards Bertholdt. Bertholdt saw Mikasa coming and panicked. "Reiner!" called Bertholdt. "Protect us!" Before Mikasa could strike Bertholdt, the Armored Titan’s hands raised up, crossed over, and cupped themselves over both sides of its neck. As Mikasa drove her blade forwards, the Armored Titan’s fingers closed themselves, making Mikasa’s blade bounce off the hand and break off. Mikasa looked into Bertholdt’s eyes through the gap in between the Armored Titan’s index and middle finger, her death glare scared him beyond all measure. Then, Ymir's Titan swiped at Mikasa, causing her to jump off. As she jumped off, she took out a fresh pair of blades. "I knew it!" thought Mikasa. "I'll have to kill Ymir first!" Mikasa reeled towards Ymir's Titan, ready to strike. Before she could strike, Historia climbed of the head of Ymir's Titan, causing her to land on the back of the Armored Titan's white hair. "Wait, Mikasa!" she cried. "Don't kill Ymir!" "That all depends on Ymir!" stated Mikasa. "What will it be? I'll kill everyone that gets in my way, so choose!" "No wait!" shouted Historia. "Ymir will be killed unless she does what Reiner and Bertholdt say! She doesn't have a choice!" "There's only so many lives that i actually care about," stated Mikasa, coldly. "My enemies made deciding that easy six years ago. So... you're mistaken to seek any compassion for me. Because right now, I'm all out of time and room in my heart to care. Christa... do you pick Eren or Ymir? Which is it? Will you get in my way, too?!" Ymir's Titan roared and was about to attack Mikasa, but Historia stopped her. "Stop Ymir!" shouted Historia. "Don't fight back! You'll die!" Ymir's Titan lowered her hand and didn't attack. Mikasa then swung around to the front of the Armored Titan. Inside the hands of the Armored Titan, Eren pushed off the Armored Titan's neck, squishing Bertholdt's body into the Armored Titan's palms. "Quit it, Eren!" demanded Bertholdt. "Stop struggling!" "Good luck with that, Bertholdt," said Jean, outside. "It's impossible to get him to calm down." Outside, Armin, Jean, Sasha, Conny, Rainbow Dash, Indigo Zap, Applejack, and the other recruits had caught up with the two warriors. "He's the most irritating guy there is," stated Jean. "I know better than anyone! i hate him as much as you do. So let's beat him up together." "I favor on killing the son of a bitch," stated Rainbow Dash. "Yeah, me too, I don't like traitors," stated Indigo Zap. "Why don't you come out of there?" "Bertholdt! give him back!" demanded Mikasa. "Hey... You're kidding, right?" asked Conny. "Bertholdt? Reiner? This whole time... you kept quiet and deceived us? That's so cruel!" "You guys! Tell us it's all a lie!" shouted Sasha. "What about the time you saved Conny?" asked Lemon Zest. "What was running through you?!" "Why are you doing this?" asked Pinkie Pie. "I though we were friends." "Hey, hey, hey... You think you can just keep running away?" asked Jean. "That's not going to happen! For three years, didn't we sleep under the same roof as comrades through think and thin? Bertholdt... Your odd sleeping positions were truly an art form. After a while, we all looked forward each morning to seeing your pose... and tried using it to predict the weather. But you... To think you, the invader... could sleep like a log... right next your victims!" "Was everything just a lie?" asked Conny. "Remember we talked about surviving this together? And that we'd grow old, and someday we'd all go out for drinks together?" "Was our friendship a lie?" asked Pinkie Pie. "Was it?! You guys... What were you guys thinking this whole time?" "What's it even matter anymore? asked Mikasa. "Just focus on cutting open his neck. If you hesitate for a moment, we won't be able to get Eren back. They are the enemies of humanity. that's all there is to know." Bertholdt couldn’t stand it any longer. With a massive inhale, he gathered all of his words and planned to speak them the best he could. "No, you're wrong!" screamed Bertholdt, stopping Eren. "Who chooses to be this?! Who the hell would want to kill people by their own choice?! Who the hell would like doing this sort of thing?! Do you think I wanted to do this?! People hate and despise us... We've done such terrible things, we deserve to die. Things we'll never be able to take back... But... we just... couldn't come to terms with our sins. The only time we had some respite was when we pretended to be soldiers. That's not a lie! Conny! Jean! Pinkie Pie! It's true we may have deceived everyone, but it's not all a lie! We considered you all as comrades! Neither of us have any right to even apologize. But... someone... Please.... Someone, please... Someone find us!" Everyone heard Bertholdt pouring out his heart, even Ymir was listening. Bertholt’s pouring his soul out only made Ymir feel worse for the acts she was committing. While the soldiers and ponies on or near the Armored Titan, Mikasa looked at the hand where Bertholdt and Eren were held. "Bertholdt..." spoke Mikasa. "Give Eren back." "It's no use..." Bertholdt bawled. "I can't. Someone has to be the one to do it. Someone has to be the one to stain their hands with blood." "You guys!" shouted Hannes from below. "I can't believe him... What the hell is that Erwin thinking?" "What?!" shouted Sour Sweet. Everyone that was standing on the Armored Titan's hands looked ahead "Oh... my... fucking... god," muttered Starlight Glimmer. "What is that, Starlight?!" asked Sunset Shimmer. "What do you think?!" shouted Sunny Flare. Ahead of them, a mass horde of Titans were chasing Erwin and the other soldiers that were with Erwin. "He's leading a horde of Titans this way!" shouted Hannes. The Armored Titan saw the horde of Titans coming in his direction, he growled as he was prepared for the horde. "You guys!" called Hannes. "Jump and get outta there!" Everyone that were on top of the Armored Titan's hands quickly jumped off to avoid the incoming Titans. "All soldiers, disperse!" ordered Erwin. "Get far away from the Titans!" Everyone on the Armored Titan leapt off of it, keeping theirs hooks attached to its armored plates as they used their gas to carefully lower themselves back onto their horses below. While Mikasa and others landed perfectly, Armin missed and headed towards the ground. "Armin!" called Twilight. Twilight caught Armin before he could impact the ground, she used her strength to lift Armin back on his horse. "Thanks, Twilight," Armin breathed. “Don’t thank me yet,” Twilight responded. “We have other things to worry about now.” As the Armored Titan got closer to the horde of Titans, he leaned in slightly, bracing for impact. He increased his speed, just like he did we he destroyed the gate of Wall Maria. Historia was shocked at the amount of Titans, that she didn't hang on to Ymir's Titan properly, before realizing. The Armored Titan then rammed into a couple of Titans, sending them hurling in the air. The impact of the Armored Titan colliding into the horde cause Historia to be launch from Ymir's Titan. "Historia!" called Ymir. The Armored Titan saw Historia getting launched, who quickly started to run to catch Historia. Using his right arm, he was far enough to reach Historia, while using his left arm to protect Bertholdt and Eren. As the Armored Titan was about to reach towards Historia, a smaller Titan grabbed on to his leg, causing him to fall down. The Armored Titan then reached out towards Historia. Once Historia landed on the Armored Titan's hand, he quickly closed it, enough for her not to get squished. When Historia was safe, she opened her eyes to see she was safe in a hand. She then crawled out of the hand to see who caught her. When she looked, the first thing she saw that she was held by Reiner, but in his Titan form. She blushed and smiled, knowing that the Reiner that she knew was still alive. She stared at the Armored Titan, unaware of a Titan appearing behind her. "Historia!" called Ymir. Ymir's Titan leaped off the Armored Titan and scratched the Titan's face. The Armored Titan placed Historia on his shoulder, just out of reach of the other Titans surrounding him. The Armored Titan lets out a loud roar as he was struggling to stand up. Everyone looked in shock at the Armored Titan roaring while being surrounded by Titans. "What's going on?" wondered Jean. "Is this hell?" "No... but it will be!" shouted Erwin, galloping ahead. Erwin pointed his sword forwards and cantered around the soldiers. "All soldiers, charge!" ordered Erwin "The fate of humanity will be determined in this very moment! There is no future where humanity can inhabit these lands without Eren! We recover Eren and immediately retreat! Give your hearts!" Mikasa then galloped towards the Titans. As Mikasa galloped everyone started to follow Erwin. Rarity stayed behind no doing anything. "They can handle this," said Rarity. "I don't really need to go with them." "That's why you never made it to the top fifteen!" shouted Sweetie Belle, galloping. "Wow, look at her, your younger sister isn't acting a bitch, unlike you," teased Sour Sweet. Rarity groaned and started to follow the others. All of them started to charge towards the horde surrounding the Armored Titan. As the Scouts charged, a couple of MPs were looking at the Scouts charging from a hill. "Those crazy Scouts," said the MP. "Something's wrong with their heads." "Hey!" shouted another MP. The MP looked up and saw a Titan towering over him. The Titan bit down on his head and yanked him off his horse. As the MP was getting devoured the horse stood still, not knowing what to do. Inside the hands of the Armored Titan, Eren could hear all the commotion coming from the outside. "What's happening out there?" he wondered. Outside, the Armored Titan was unable to move anywhere, due to the horde of Titans surrounding him tightly. Inside the Armored Titan, Reiner had to quickly devise a plan. "Can't move..." he thought. "Unless I tear these Titans off me, it'll only get worse." As Reiner devised a plan, he heard a faint voice, a sweet voice he recognized easily calling his name. "Christa?" he thought. "Not the time yet. Brace yourself, Bertholdt" The Armored Titan began to put his hands off of its neck and pushed them out to the sides, shoving a couple of the titans near its head and punching others in front of it. Historia tightly grabbed on to the white hair on the Armored Titan. "A little more..." he hoped. "Just a little more!" "It worked!" called Jean. "His hand's gone!" "Now's our chance!" declared Mikasa. "Whoa there, Nelly," said Applejack. "Can't you see all those Titans?!" "How do you plan on getting through that mess?" asked Jean. "You'd have to slip through a horde of 'em." As Erwin galloped towards the horde of Titans, Erwin threw his sword out to his right. "Advance!" he shouted. Just as Erwin was about to pass a small collection of trees to his right, a seven-meter titan hopped out from them on all fours, and opened its mouth. Erwin didn't have enough time to pull his arm away, the Titan lunged forwards and bit down on Erwin’s arm, knocking him off his horse. The soldiers, shocked by the Titan’s sudden appearance. The Scouts watched in horror as Commander Erwin was carried away by the Titan like a rag doll. "COMMANDER ERWIN!!!" shouted a Scout. "ADVANCE!!!" he bellowed. "Eren is just ahead! Advance!" Everyone followed Erwin's orders while some Scout deviated from the group to rescue Erwin from the Titan. Everyone charged towards the horde of Titans and the massacre began. Scouts were crushed, torn apart, grabbed and devoured, bitten in half, and heads were flying off. A Scout's horse crashed into another Scout's horse, causing the Scout to be launched from the horse and was bitten in half. As the massacre continued, Mikasa galloped through the Titans, avoiding all the hands attempting to grab her. Once Mikasa was at the Armored Titan, she launch a hook at the Armored Titan’s shoulder, flying up and towards it. She wrapped around the hand of the Armored Titan and saw Bertholdt and Eren. She launched a hook aimed towards Bertholdt and swung towards him. Bertholdt saw the incoming Mikasa, who quickly dodged her. As Mikasa fell, Eren's eyes ere filled with fear and shock. Mikasa looked below to see a Titan reaching out towards her. The Titan below Mikasa grabbed her and squeezed her body, crushing her ribs, forcing her to scream out. "Mikasa!" Applejack shrieked, hopping off her horse. "You piece of shit!" shouted Jean, hopping off his horse and taking out a pair of blades. "Let her go!" As Applejack swung towards the Titan and prepared to slice, but Jean zipped in and sliced the Titan's eyes. Applejack was blind sided that she didn't have time to land properly that when she landed on the Titan, she rolled her right ankle, wincing in pain. The Titan lets go of Mikasa, and trying to ignore the huge pain, zipped towards Applejack, catching her. As Mikasa caught, Applejack, Mikasa began to fall from the pain. In front of the Armored Titan, two Scouts zipped towards him, but the Armored Titan retaliated by chopping the two Scouts' wires, causing them to fall. With the two Scouts out of the way, the Armored Titan covered up Bertholdt and Eren, while Reiner then wondered about Historia calling his name. "We've come this far already," said Bertholdt. "We're taking Eren home with us. We're going back to our hometown." "Shit... This is all because I got caught," Eren thought. "Everyone's gonna die because of me." "Bertholdt!" called Armin, landing on the side of the Armored Titan's mouth plate. Armin looked at Bertholdt and Eren, while Bertholdt stared at Armin, giving each other a cold stare. "What do I have to abandon?" Armin wondered. "Is it my life? Or something else?" Armin then remembers that during their regiment picking, when Annie left to join the Military Police, Bertholdt looked at Annie with a sadden look. With that memory, Armin smiled and came up with an idea. "Are you two okay with this?" asked Armin. "Leaving behind a comrade and returning home?" Reiner and Bertholdt were in a state of shock, but Bertholdt was the most who was shocked, while Reiner was busy hearing Historia calling his name, but carefully listening to Armin. "You're abandoning Annie?" Armin continued. "You know where she's at? Far north, deep underground in the Utopia District... and being tortured. It was her screams that taught us something. That even with her body's healing you can never get rid of the pain. They're taking special care to ensure she doesn't die. And as we speak, they're not giving her body any rest. They're torturing her every way they know how." Bertholdt, brought past his breaking point, turned out towards the soldiers and reached his operational device towards his sheaths, ready to draw a blade. "You spawn of the devil!" he cried. "I'll fucking pulverize you!" In Bertholdt's blind rage, he wasn't to hear or see Erwin’s hook pierce into the Armored Titan’s chest as Erwin reeled himself towards Bertholdt. With his left hand, Erwin struck at Bertholdt's chest, cutting the bound holding Eren to him as well as slicing his chest. With Eren free, he began to fall down towards the ground. "ALL SOLDIERS, RETREAT!!!" shouted Erwin. Mikasa caught Eren as he was falling and Applejack was below them, still cringing from the pain in her ankle. All of them mounted their horses and galloped away from the horde and the Armored Titan. The Armored Titan roared as Eren got away and tried to move, but the horde surrounded him tightly. As Reiner tried to move, he continued to hear Historia calling his name. "Reiner, please! This isn't a trap!" assured Historia. "I'll leave after this!" At this point, Reiner was almost out of ideas and sighed. The armored plates on the nape started to shed. Then, the Armored Titan's nape split open, releasing steam. Reiner’s head popped out of the nape and looked at Historia. She smiled to see Reiner, now was her chance. Then, everything felt slow towards the two of them. "So you really are the Armored Titan, the one who destroyed Wall Maria?" asked Historia. The guilt started to build up in Reiner, knowing that all the times where he made friends, found a person he'd love, were all lies. Reiner nodded in response, he betrayed his friends and comrades with lies. He flinched away in shame of his actions. Historia then leaned in and kissed his forehead, surprising himself from her action. Reiner looked up and saw Historia's cheek flushed pink. "Why?" he asked. "Why would you fallen for me? I only picture you with Ymir, why? That Reiner you remembered is dead. He was weak and foolish. So I'd killed him. I'm just a monster that can't be loved, I've killed thousands of innocent lives, children, wives, and torn families apart." "Reiner, many people see you as a monster after this," whispered Historia. "But in my eyes, I see the Reiner that saved me twice, saved Conny from that Titan, a person that is passionate, honest, and kind-hearted to others." "That's the other Reiner," he hissed. "Reiner for the past five years, after you saved from that mountain, I couldn't stop thinking about you," she smiled. "The times where you gave advice to other comrades and risking your life to save me and others, that taught me one thing." "What is it?" he asked. "How to love a person," she smiled. “You love one another?” asked Reiner. “Just you and Ymir,” she replied with a smile. “You love me?!” asked Reiner. Historia in response then leaned in and pressed her lips against Reiner’s. Reiner’s heart skipped beats as she deepened the kiss. Historia pulled away and leaned her for head against Reiner’s. Then their moment was broke when they Ymir’s Titan getting overpowered by another Titan. "Ymir!" cried Historia. "Go help Ymir," said Reiner. Historia nodded, but before she could leap of the Armored Titan's shoulder, Reiner called her. "Christa promise me this, no matter what happens stay alive for me and Ymir, don't let anyone convince you how to live your life," said Reiner. "I promise with my heart," she smiled. "No matter where you are... No matter where I am... If I'm a thousand miles away from, I will alway be thinking about you." "Promise?” asked Reiner. “It’s a promise I’ll never break,” said Historia. “Thank you, Christa,” said Reiner. Historia gave Reiner a peck on his forehead. Historia leaped off the Armored Titan and zipped towards Ymir. Reiner then buried himself back in the Armored Titan, quickly regenerating. As Historia swung towards, Reiner looked at her as she swung. "I'm gonna marry her," he declared mentally. "Reiner!" called Bertholdt. "They got Eren!" "I know, I'll think of something," said Reiner. In the distance, a Titan pinned Ymir's Titan to the ground. as she struggled to stand up, Historia swung over the Titan's nape and slashed at the Titan's nape with a shrill battle cry. Historia landed onto the ground and swung to the side of a tree where she watched Ymir’s Titan push the dead Titan off of her. "I did it." she breathed. "My first kill. But how is Ymir--" "Christa!" called Conny. Lemon Zest then scooped Historia off the ground and started to gallop away from Ymir's Titan. Ymir's Titan saw Historia getting taken away and roared viciously and sprinted off towards her. "What the hell are you doing?!" asked Conny. "We're leaving!" "Let's hurry home and chow down!" shouted Sasha. "Ymir is chasing us!" shouted Lemon Zest. "She's playing tag!" shouted Pinkie Pie. "This is not the time for playing games, Pinkie!" scolded Lemon Zest. "Conny! Sasha! Pinkie! Lemon Zest! Leave me be!" shouted Historia. "What why?!" asked Lemon Zest. "Ymir said if I don't go with her Reiner and Bertholdt are going to kill her!" shouted Historia. "If she hands me in, they'll let her go free! We were gonna go with them!" "Ymir said that?" asked Conny. "Yes, so let me down!" shouted Historia. "It's a lie!" objected Sasha. "Of course that's a lie! She's lying to you!" "Sasha! right," said Conny. "You think the one who fought like a maniac to save you would do something like that. The only time Ymir ever shows some effort is when you're in trouble. I don't know about her getting killed, but... For now, just calm down." "That's right," said Sasha. "If you two stay here longer, there's a huge chance that you'll die and it'll get worse!" "You know, even an idiot could figure out," said Conny. "We got Eren and you back and it's not like things could get any worse," said Pinkie Pie. Then, all of them saw a Titan soaring through the air above them. Their eyes were widened at the sight. "Holy shit!" shouted Lemon Zest. "Never mind, things can get worse," chuckled Pinkie Pie. Historia looked back at where the Titan was launched. "Reiner..." she muttered. The Titan that was soaring crashed in front of the Scouts, causing some Scouts to be dismounted from their horse and dust started to billow into the air. "Damn that Reiner!" hissed Jean. "He's tossing Titans like a madman!" The Armored Titan then desperately flung another Titan towards the Scouts. The Titan then struck the ground, causing dust to envelop them. Hannes, Armin, Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, Rarity, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Sour Sweet, Sunny Flare, Sugarcoat, and Indigo Zap made it out the dust. Armin turned around and saw Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Mikasa, and Eren lying on the ground. "Eren! Mikasa!" called Armin. "Sis!" called Apple Bloom. "Rainbow!" called Scootaloo. Mikasa tried to stand up, but the injury from her ribs caused her fall back down. Applejack tried to stand up, but when the Titan collided to the ground, she was dismounted from her horse and had rolled her ankle further. Rainbow tried to get up, but was too weak after hitting her head, her face now had a scar crossing her eyebrow and cutting just across the inner part of her cheek. Her head had blood running down the side of her head. "Eren," muttered Mikasa. Then, the four of them heard footsteps in their direction. The four saw a 15-meter Titan heading towards their direction. It wasn't just a regular 15-meter Titan, it had medium length light-blonde hair, and its smile was stretched out so wide that its gums were exposed. Applejack and Rainbow Dash were creeped out at the sight. On the hand hand, Eren and Mikasa couldn't believe their eyes on what they were seeing. Eren gasped in horror as he remembered his mother getting devoured in front of him. The Titan that ate his mother had now returned after five years.
