Eren transformed.
He kneeled, palms flat on the ground as hardening material left his body and coated the room, the solid rock turning into a shiny-like sort of metal that nothing in this world could crash.
A foundation. He was creating a foundation, to save them from getting squashed to death by the falling debris. "Everyone! Get underneath Eren!" Violet roared.
They followed her, tracing behind her as they ran towards the safety of Eren's titan body. Whatever fell beside them, or even at their sides, shook the floor so violently that it was a struggle to keep their bodies up and, on top of that, to make their limbs run. And when Eren roared, it was a catalyst that made the whole room fall at an even faster rate than before. "Fuck, fuck, fuck." This was some sort of messed up game of cats and mice, and Violet did not like it one bit. Especially since she was the mouse and not the cat--yeah, she did not like this at all. 

They barely got to Eren when the room fell completely apart.


"That's what I call hardening." Levi whistled, "Even after cutting you away, the titan hasn't disappeared."
Although Eren had saved them all, and for that everyone was grateful, getting him out of the titan's nape was much more difficult due to the hardened skin he had created all over his titan body. Violet even had to harden her knuckles with hardening of her own to break through, and even that was not enough. But they had him now and no one that mattered got harmed, so it was a victory through and through.
"Pretty impressive, right?" Violet rubbed her sore knuckles as she admired what the green-eyed boy created in a short matter of time.
"You couldn't do it at all before now, but you used the hardening power." Levi said to Eren, "And saved all of us. In the blink of an eye, you devised and built all of this." He kneeled down so that he was at eye level with Eren, "It's possible for us to plug that hole in Wall Maria now."
Violet did not mean to let out that groan that left her lips. But--gods, she had completely forgotten about that, if she dared to be honest. When she truly thought that her long needed vacation was an arm's length away, shit appeared out of nowhere. Once she was dead, she would have a lengthy conversation with everyone single damn god--and devil, too, because damn them all.

"Captain's!" Armin shouted. Violet's eyes jump from Eren who looked up to Armin descending from the roof, 3DMG keeping him from crashing down. "We secured an exit!"
Violet couldn't help but noticed the change that appeared in Eren's green eyes, as he looked up to his long time friend. What exactly had changed, she did not know. But he looked---duller, if that was a thing. Like something that happened in this very damn room changed something inside him. Like he saw something that he would've rather never, ever known.
His gaze was devastating. Like it had stolen out of him twenty years of his youth, of that innocence that the world tended to see in the eyes of the kids his age. He no longer looked...bright. He looked terrified as if awaiting an impending doom that couldn't come no sooner.
But before she could reach out, or stare a little longer to decipher what had happened, Levi was by her side, hand on her lower back.

Oh, how she liked Levi's little displays of affection. So, so damn much that it felt like she was a melted puddle on the floor. With him, she felt giddy; like a kid in a candy shop.
She didn't know what to do with herself, and with a single action he did, he had her wrapped around his little finger. That much power did Levi Ackerman hold over her. And she would not complain about it-- not even once. 

"Well done." Levi said, looking at her with a small smirk on his lips, "Let's go. We're going after that big ass titan."
She held back her laugh but met Levi's smirk with one of her own. She made their eyes meet, too, and she made sure that they shined with the laughter that she so badly wanted to let out. Levi only rolled his eyes and squeezed her back, before removing his hand, but not before his thumb slightly rubbed the small of her back. 

And Violet smiled, all the way out of this hell-hole of a chapel.
