A Land Of Monsters And Men

Wallflower

Making it back to the wall you were astonished by its height. It seemed as if it could touch the skies. There was a wall similar to this one back home.

But this seemed to keep things from entering since you didn't see a door.

{How the hell will they get in?

How could they even go up the wall?

Why would they need a wall that big in the first place? Could it be to keep the Titans out?} You thought.

"Since she can't walk we will have to pull her up. Some will need to be in via a lift."

Reiner kept you on the horse while he held it by the rein slowly making his way to the team talking about taking you over the wall.

Your lips parted. They shivered from hesitation.

And just as soft a pedal the word came out.

"Re-Reiner?"

The way you said his name made him freeze in place.

The wind blew softly against your hair making it dance. He gazed over his shoulder to see your worried expression. You didn't say much on the way but the both of you did share some whispers.

"Yes?"

He asked, attempting to keep his composure.

"Will they hurt me?"

You ask softly so no one could hear you.

Reiner looked back at the people he knew as Hange, Eren, Armin, Mikasa, and the others. Eren seemed to be watching by the corner of his eyes. Reiner turned his back towards him as he looked down to the ground.

He wouldn't know how to answer that question. After the things he has witnessed and the people he has met. It's most likely they will use you as they use Eren.

His hands gripped the reins slightly making the leather creak. Which made your eyes lower knowing that this man might be confirming it through his physical emotions.

"I don't want to suffer anymore, I'm not from here."

Reiner raised his gaze to look you in the eyes as the wind blew gently he attempted to organize the maze inside his head. The shocking messages that ran through his mind. You could see he has changed to a more leader-like state.

"I know." He said sternly.

You lifted your head slightly to look at his firm gaze.

{He knows? He knows I'm not from here.}

"Reiner." A slim but tall young man walked up to him.

"That titan that Ymir changed into."

Reiner looked over to him turning his full focus toward his comrade. "I know but we still have a mission. We have to follow our orders, we have to regain back the homes that were taken from us."

The tall young man looked back at you. He didn't get a good view of you when they discovered you. Much more out of curiosity but he also seemed to withhold some type of pain. Maybe he too was friends with the girl you supposedly ate?

"Christa isn't taking this too well." He said to Reiner.

They looked back to the short blond girl whose head was down with Eren, Armin, and the red scarf girl talking to her.

The moment your eyes saw her you felt a sudden shock or some type of impulse. It was as if you were sharing your memories with someone else. Shutting your eyes you focused on her face that resembled someone else you were close to.
