(During season 3, you basically take the place of Jean)

No one POV
It's a tough time for the scouts, they are now considered criminals.
Kennys squads has appeared, nifa has had her head blow off. Eren and Historia have been knocked unconscious and the wagon has been taken.

(Y/n) POV
"Look there they are" Connie calls out as he see the cart with eren and histora on it. Suddenly captain Levi comes swinging around the corner after the wagon, "captain Levi" armin says. A man appears behind him aiming something at him "the hell is that?!" Jeans says just as confused, the man shoots at the captain but he doges and fires and anchor into him pulling him towards his and kills him. We're all stunned at what just happened, "follow the wagon" the captain commands, mikasa reply's with a simple "right".

"Listen up" Levi starts "these soldiers were trained to fight other people, they've already taken out 3 of ours" we all listen a bit shocked "if you hesitate for a second you'll be dead, the moment you see an opening, go for the kill" Levi finishes "yes sir" mikasa says coldly shocking us all. We make are attack Levi drags the man standing in the cart. "Armin secure the wagon with (y/n) we'll keep you two covered" Levi orders "ugh sir" armin reply's hastily "he killed him" I say shocked to see a man I look up to kill someone "come on" I hear armin say and he moves in to the cart, I snap out of it and follow. We both land on the cart the women driving turns to shoot us but mikasa swoops in and knocks her down. She lands on her back and I put my sword to her head "don't move" I yell terrified, the lady doesn't care and flips over and smacks my sword away, making me fall. She points her gun to my head and I can't help but think 'I'm gonna die'  "(Y/N)!!" I hear mikasa call, then...


























BANG...
































Armin stands by the river mikasa behind him, coughing, vomiting and breathing heavily. Mikasa touches armin back to comfort him when he suddenly speaks "was it like this for you?" Mikasa retracts her hand at the question. Armin suddenly lifts his head tears streaming down his face he wipes the with his armin "I'm sorry" "it's okay" "I'm sorry" he whimpers.


BANG


I sit there shocked as a bullets flys through the woman about to end my life, her now dead body falls revealing who killed her I'm shocked to see...Armin...he holds a grief and anger filled face as smoke comes out the end of his gun. Levi notices more soldiers appear "shit, ARMIN (Y/N)!!" The 3 soldiers aim to fire when Levi grabs me and Sasha grabs armin and pulls us off the cart and into the air with their odm gear the soldiers land in the cart and race it through the gate the rest of them following behind. Mikasa try's to follow but the captain stops her telling her we're running on fumes she of course try's to fight back but Levi hold on. "ERENNNNNNNN" she cry's.

We regroup and head back to the ware house sitting on boxes around a lamp. "What's wrong?" Levi asks armin "did all this filth kill your appetite" "no" armin reply's simply but keeps going "(y/n), there's something I don't understand" armin says to me "what's that?" "When i turners around to try to save you that women already had her gun to your head, funny how could I have shot before she did" armin finishes. This makes me think back to that moment remembering the look in her face "I don't know" I reply looking down at the floor "you shot first because she hesitated, it's simple" Levi says blankly "I'm sorry armin, you would of had to save me if I had just done my job" I say feeling guilt that armin killed someone because I didn't follow orders "I know what it is" armin speaks up "the women I shot back there, I bet she was a really kind person, she must of had a lot more human empathy then I ever did, I pulled that trigger so easily, without a thought, I'm..." "a killer" Levi interrupts "and now that your hands have been soaked in blood, the person you once were is gone for good" Levi continue "why would you say that" mikasa jumps in defending armin. "And you shouldn't regret it for one second" Levi says raising his voice a bit "because if you had chosen to keep your hands clean, (y/n) would be a corpse on a cart right now" we all sit in silence for a moment letting that fact sink in. "I'll tell you why you pulled the trigger, because the one you love was about to die, armin everyone on are squad survived today because you got blood on your hands, thank you..."

Timeskip
We're now standing on the property of historians orphanage, helping move supplies. We had finally finished for the day and me and armin were sitting on the grass watching the kids play as historia chases them.

"(Y/n) do you see me any differently now that I have blood on my hands" my head whips around to see armin looking at the ground a sad expression on his face "what?! Of course not" I say "you should I'm a killer a horrible perSON" I surprise him by suddenly pushing him to the ground and climbing on top of him pinning him to the ground and lean down so are foreheads and noses are touching. "Armin Arlert you are NOT A killer person or a horrible person when you shot that women you did it to save my life, if you didn't I wouldn't be here right now. Okay" I say sternly, Armin whispers a soft 'okay' I capture his soft lips in a sweet kiss then snuggle into his chest breathing in his scent of vanilla "I love you armin" "I love you to (y/n)."
