We lined up against the top of Wall Rose, flowers and feathers rained from the sky, all the citizens cheered and screamed for joy, some cried, some hugged, some kissed, for once. This day belongs to Humanity. Eren had the three books tucked under his arm, Mikasa and I had three pieces of stone tucked in our arms.
Mikasa and Eren were locked up for their punishment, Levi, Hanji, Armin and I went to the cellar to bring them back out, "It's called the Attack Titan." Eren was leant up against the wall and he held his hand, Hanji and I stared at him and burst out laughing, "It's called the Attack Titan." The two of us leant up against the wall and held our hand like how Eren did and made our voices deeper, we burst out laughing again, "Shut it you two. He's fifteen, they all go through a phase like this." Levi unlocks Eren, "A phase where we mutter weird crap while posing?!" Hanji says, "Hanji, I'll just explain it to you later, maybe now just isn't the right time." Armin tries to calm her down, "I remember a certain specific Ackerman used to think he was a superhero and went through that phase as well. His name starts with an L and ends with an I." I jumped onto Levi's back, "Tch brat." He puts his arms under my legs so I don't slip off, "Get out." Levi looks at Eren, "What? But I still have ten whole days left." Eren was confused, "I'm satisfied. Hanji just gave you ten days worth of pain." Levi turns his head around, "We talked it over with Premier Zachary so don't worry. If we keep the brave heroes that caught the Armoured and Colossal titan in jail it kinda sends the wrong message does it not?" I winked, "Let's go. Get dressed." Levi starts walking out, Hanji and Armin following behind us, "Wait where are we going Captain?" Eren asks, "A state meeting, her majesty has come to Trost." Levi informs them.
"Your Grace." We all walk into Historia's office, she walks over, "Oh stop it please, I'm not actually ruling yet. But wow. You've been through so much, meanwhile I've done nothing but watch the South sky and wait." She sighs, "It's an important duty of yours just to sit tight and stay safe." I smile, "Yeah, she's right." Levi nods, "It's good to see you guys still acting like yourselves," She says quietly, "Well that might just be because it hasn't quite sunken in yet." Eren looks down, I sighed, "Well then let's get the ball rolling." I open the door.
"The early life of Grisha Yeager, knowledge of titans and previous history and information from beyond the walls, the only people who know these books exist are those in this room now. These books were retrieved from the ten Scouts in front of us and the hundred and ninety-nine lost, on this day and in the Queen's presence I'd like all of us to assess our situation and come to an agreement with our next course of action. Scout Regiment Commander Natalie Ackerman." Darius says, "Sir. The Scouts have suffered a staggering blow, in exchange for the lives of many heroes... including Erwin Smith... we have retaken Wall Maria and seized control of the colossal titan. That said, people living within the walls have finally realised how precarious life is now, I'd be relieved if titans were our only enemies, unfortunately, the true nature of the foe we face is human, it's a whole civilisation. Some could say it's us against the world. According to these books, we're of a special race that's able to turn into titans called 'The Subjects of Ymir'. There are however drawbacks to certain people. People like me and Mikasa with Asian origins can't turn into titans. When injected, nothing would happen. Similarly to Ackermans, as stated in the book, however, they can manifest the power of titans still in human form and when awakened, they gain battle experience from every Ackerman before them via paths. We ruled the world once and some fear we will again, so despite our past century of pacifism most of the world would like to wipe us out. Doctor Yeager did manage to complete his mission and then he passed the Founding Titan onto his son Eren. The Founding Titan's full strength can only be brought to bear when it's passed onto someone with royal blood. However, when a royal possesses the Founding Titan, they're overpowered by their ancestor's will and they continue down the path they sat for them. Such as his power of renouncing war. However, Eren's powered true titans once in the past to escape from a dire situation so, despite his lack of royal blood, it's conditional that Eren might be able to harness that power." I finish, "There's no way!" Eren stands up suddenly, I flinched, "Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" I quietly hiss, "What is it? What's wrong?" I whisper, "I uh... I just..." Eren was frozen, "If you have something to say, we'd be glad to hear it." Darius says, he looks at Mikasa, "Actually it's nothing. Sorry for interrupting Commander" He sits back down, my eyes soften and I look at him, he looks up at me and nods.
