Chapter 7; Not Now
I yawned lazily as I walked around the market with Sasha and Mina. Mikasa ran off to find Eren literally as soon as the sun appeared, she kept me up all night with her constant worrying. Poor thing...
"Scarlett?" Mina bumped into me slightly.
"Huh what?" I looked over to her. She giggled innocently.
"Come on!! We have to go watch the wall." She smiled. Oh crap... I forgot about that. I nodded my head and launched my anchor into the nearest building, pulling me up with it like a doll. Mina and Sasha caught up to me as we were gliding through the air, making our way towards the wall.
"Why do we have do this again?" I yelled loudly so they could hear me.
"Beats me!!!" Sasha yelled as she did a flip. "Woohoo!! I love these things so much!!" I rolled my eyes and smiled.
"Show off." I mumbled as we landed on the wall. Eren, Thomas, Connie and this guy named Samuel also got stuck on wall duty. "Hey guys!" I chirped happily as I walked up to them. I looked around to see that Sasha had disappeared. "Where did she..."
"I heard your big speech last night made Connie want to join the Survey Corps." Thomas smiled.
"What??! N-no! It was because of Jean, I don't want to be near that asshole." He stuttered as he loaded the cannons. I laughed softly.
"He's not the only one." Mina smiled. "I am too!!" She grinned.
"No way!!!" Eren said happily.
"He..he pardon me." Sasha came up to us. She opened her jacket to reveal a big portion of meat. We all gasped.
"Sasha where'd you get that???" Thomas yelled quietly.
"The senior's office he he. I'm sure no one will notice it's missing." She stared dreamingly at it as drool slightly dripped out of her gaping mouth.
"Sasha do you know how rare meat is now? If you get caught-" I started.
"But it won't be a problem when we take back all the land we need to take care of livestock..." Mina mumbled.
"Uh no way you guys!!" I stuttered.
"I WOULD LIKE A PIECE OF THAT!" Samuel yelled.
"M-ME TOO!! SAVE SOME FOR ME!" Mina yelled too.
"Ah fuck it, if they're having some, so am I." I gave in. Everyone else agreed as Sasha hid the meat in a box.
"We'll wait until lunch...so in the meantime get your asses working so no one suspects anything." Thomas said quietly. We all nodded our heads and went back to loading the cannons. Eren was looking off into the distance, smiling.
"What's up Eren?" I smiled up at him. Before he could answer, steam erupted our thoughts. My eyes widened as I looked in horror at what was right in front of me. No...not this again. The Colossus Titan. The force of the explosion knocked us all back.
"AHHH it burns!!!" Sasha yelled as we were falling back off the wall.
"Quick!!" I yelled.
"Switch to vertical maneuvering!!" Eren shouted.
"R-right!!" Connie yelled. We all launched our anchors into the wall. We landed on the side of the wall and sighed.
"That was close." I mumbled.
"Hey!! Samuel!!" Eren yelled. Samuel still hadn't used his 3DMG, something had to be wrong. Sasha released her anchor and started running down the wall.
