Tybur Warrior

Chapter 7 Ally or Foe

Y/N was sitting underneath a shed with his fellow soldiers that just escaped from Trost and left Mikasa and Armin with Eren because they were surrounded by soldiers.

"And that's how we refilled our gas and got out of Trost district." Connie finished twlling Ymir and Krista about what happened

"I see. I'm really sorry. We requested support supply for you guys multiple times, but..." Krista apologized

"We finally got our hands on some too." Ymir said

"S-So... the people that aren't here are all..." Krista said

"Yeah. They all died as sacrifices." Y/N said and both Ymir and Historia looked shocked

"Even Mikasa?!" Ymir asked

"No, she and Armin came back together with us, but they went somewhere." Y/N said

Y/N was looking at Marco stopping Daz from committing suicide with his blades while Sasha was shouting.

"Shut up, you loud fucks." Y/N said

Y/N saw a piece of bread and he picked it up and walked over to a crying Sasha.

"Shut... up!" Y/N puts the bread inside of Sasha's mouth shutting her up

"This is... bread!" Sasha said

Y/N walks away from Sasha while she eats the bread. An explosion was heard from a near distance making Y/N flinch.
Y/N caught a glimpse of the sky color yellow before it returned to it's normal color.

"Don't tell me..." Y/N muttered

Y/N walked away faster and looked for Reiner and the two others. When Y/N found them, he was relieved that it wasn't them.

"Look! There's smoke! It's from within the walls!" A soldier pointed

Y/N looked at where the soldier was pointing and he used his ODM Gear to swing to a roof.

"Hey!" Jean called Y/N

Reiner suddenly followed after Y/N before Annie and Bertholdt followed them and eventually Jean.

They made a run to the place where the smoke came from and when they arrived, they saw a huge cloud of steam surrounded by terrified soldiers.

"What the hell's going on here?" Reiner asked

"It's Eren isn't it?" Y/N asked

They all watched the Garrison soldiers load their cannons and get ready to fire. Until suddenly, they heard sounds of metal falling and Armin came out of the steam.

"Halt!" Kitz shouted frightened from Armin

Armin stops running and he raises his hands.

"So, you've finally showed your true colors, monster! I'll signal... I'll signal the cannons!" Kitz shouted

"He is not an enemy of mankind! We're willing to share any information we have!" Armin said

"I have no intentions of hearing your pleas! We've seen everything we needed to know! There's no room for discussion! If you claim he's not an enemy, then prove it! If you can't, then we'll simply eliminate the threat!" Kitz shouted

"This bastard is obviously too scared to think." Y/N said

"There's no need for proof! Besides, how we are him is not an issue!" Armin shouted

"What?!" Kitz shouted back

"I've heard many of them have seen him in action! If that's true, then they must've also seen him fighting the Titans! And that includes the sight of the surrounding Titans swarming him! In other words, the Titans saw him as a target of predation, just like the rest of mankind! No matter how we go about it, that fact cannot be denied!" Armin said

"He's right." A soldier said and they started lowering their weapons

"A titan as an ally."

"That's ridiculous."

Kitz looked around and he was starting to get nervous.

"Prepare to attack!" Kitz shouted

"See. He's too scared to think. I don't know how or why he became a soldier if he's like this, right?" Y/N asksd

"Don't be fooled by his clever tricks! Their actions have always been beyond our comprehension. It must be possible for them to imitate our firm and speech to delude us! We cannot allow them to do as they please any longer!" Kitz shouted and the soldiers ready their weapons once again

"It's no good. He's abandoned all reason. He's too scared to think. Eren. Mikasa!" Armin looked behind him

Mikasa and Eren looked at Armin and Armin saw how much they trust him in their eyes.

"I know you still have something on your mind, Armin." Y/N thought

Armin suddenly salutes and closes his eyes.

"I am a soldier that has long since offered his life for the revival of mankind! To perish while obeying conviction would be my life's greatest glory! If we were to utilize his Titan powers in addition to our remaining forces, recapturing this town would no longer be impossible! Praying for the glory of mankind. I shall elaborate on his strategic worth with all the time I have left!" Armin said

"Captain Weilmann, perhaps we should consider his-" The Garrison Soldier was cut off by Kitz shouting

"Silence!" Kitz shouted

Kitz raises his hand and Armin's eyes widen in fear. Kitz was about to signal the cannons to fire, but someone grabbed his hand.

"That's enough, Kitz. As always, large having a huge body, your still as feeble as a fawn." Some old voice said

"Commander Pixis!" Kitz said in surprise

"Are you too blind to see the brilliance of that salute?" The old man called 'Commander Pixis' said while walking past Kitz

"I just arrived, but a messenger filled me in earlier. Go take command of the reinforcements. I think it'd be best to hear what they have to say." Pixis said

Armin fell to the ground while panting and tears accumulating in his eyes.

"Yare yare. They're going to live after all." Y/N said
