Luna's POV

We all managed to get on top of the wall away from any titans that would show themselves again. As I got up, Eren reached his hand out to help Reiner get up.

"Thanks.." he said, taking a seat down on the ground. I looked at him, placing my hand on his head before joining him. "Is your arm feeling okay? Probably still hurts huh?" I ask. "I'm alright knowing you're still here with me." He said, smiling.

"A titan almost gnawed my arm off.. pathetic. All I could think was 'this is how I go.." he said and I placed a hand on his shoulder.

"What else were you supposed to think in a time like that? You're only human." Eren said.

"Don't you get it? This was my second time! Uh Armin remember?" He said, looking at Armin. "Go on, tell em how Annie nearly crushed me like an insect." He said.

"That's the second time, what are the chances that I'll survive a third time..this is what it really means what it is to be a soldier. Your spirit breaks and the body follows. No good whining about it now, least not until we can plug up the wall." he said, putting his fist to his forehead in frustration before removing it and looking at me. "I won't let you die.." I mumbled.

"That's true. Two of you have been driven far away from your hometown as it is. This is it, this is where we draw the line." Eren said.

"Truer words were never spoken! Home, let's go!" Bertholdt bursted out, catching our attention. "We've been here long enough, compared to everything else we had to go through, the rest is easy." He said, kneeling to Reiner.

Are these two okay..?

"You're right, we don't have much further to go before it's done." Reiner responded.

I stood up as Aaron walked over to us. A couple troops had arrived to the wall and spoke with Hange about there not being a breach anywhere within the wall.

"What do you want?" I said, glaring at Aaron. "The things I've come to learn so far.. I know why mother hated me. It was because I'm not blood related, I'm just a child she felt sorry for!" He shouted.

Bertholdt stood in his way from reaching for me. I was greatful that he did because Reiner was in no shape to protect me properly.

"Y-you're adopted?" I asked slightly saddened at the news he shared. "No wonder mother didn't love me.." he said. "You're still my brother Aaron, no matter what!" I said and he looked at me.

"I'm sorry that I tried to kill you earlier.. I guess I was jealous that you get everything you wanted and your blood is royal.." he mumbled and I looked at him confused. "Royal..?"

"Eren, Luna.. we should talk, you got a moment?" Reiner said. I looked over at him and nodded as the others began walking away.

"We'll continue this conversation later, Aaron." I placed my hand on his shoulder and smiled. He looked relaxed and calm for the first time in a while before walking away too.

I walked over to Eren and Reiner to hear what he has to say.

"Five years ago, we compromised Wall Maria and launched on attack on humanity." Reiner said and I looked at him confused as to what he meant. "What..?"
