After I died

"You said you had a plan for the armoured one?", Erwin asked, looked at me over his shoulder. "Yes, it's not guaranteed sucess but since we are physically in a disadvantage, looking at all these titans, I was gonna attack him mentally, fining trauma points and triggering them." Erwin nodded, loooking back at the beats titan, still waiting for their next move. "This will be our last emergency option, as long as we have enough people to fight Reiner, we will do that, but in case of all physical attacks failing, you go through with your idea." "Understood."

The beats titan suddenly lifted his hand and smashed it into the ground, all the smaller titans started running towards the wall, all of them not above 4 meters. While they approached, Reiner had almost reached the top. Erwin had still not given any furter orders. The nervousness within the ranks grew. And finally, we gota rough plan. Erwin sent three troops to protect the horses while Hanji's team und our squad would attack Reiner.

I was back on my way to Hanji and the others, along with Armin and Levi when Erwin stopped us. "Not you. I said team Levi, but you yourself will stay here.", he ordered. "You want me to protectthe horses instead of Eren?", Levi asked confused. "Yes. and if we get the chance. Kill this beast titan over there." After Erwin finished, Levi looked over at mefor a second. I could see in his face that he didn'tlike that plan at all. "Sounds like a smart move.", I said. "Don't die.", he just replied. "You neither." I turned, walking back to the others, but not without occasionally looking back.

Levi had his title of humanity's strognest for a reason. If anyone could kill this monkey, it was him, tho I couldn't help but worry. By the time I reached the others, Hanji and Armin had already sent out Eren to get Reiner's attention by transforming. They were here for him after all. I hadn't really heard the plan but Hanji's quick explanation was enough. We would fight Reiner inside of Shiganshina, far enough so that, if Berthold was still here somewhere, he couldn't get too close to the fight without us noticing.

Hanji had also gotten all of us each two thunder speers to use in battle. She had really put a lot of thought into this construct and her whole heart, I was sure. Eren's hardening technique, to concetrate it just on his fists to reach maximum damage worked like they'd planned in those dozens of experiments, was working fine. He was holding up quite good until something crucial got in his way, Eren got a little cocky, underestimating Reiner's speed. Hanji ordered everyone to stay back, we still had to wait for Eren to break Reiner's face armour, so that we could explode these speers into his mouth.

"Now!", Hanji yelled, ordering all of us to atack with the thunder speers. Her and Mikasa were the first ones to attack, getting two speers into Reiner's eyes and letting them explode. It was a huge blow to his defenses but not the whole deal. The rest of us got the speers into Reiner's neck and pulled the leashes. The armour in his neck actually cracked. But we had to attack several times, one attack wasn't enough to kill him. The second one hit just as well. 

We actually managed to crack his neck open, so that Reiner was now hanging out of it. Was he dead? Probably not. After all this fighting, it couldn't have been that easy. He suddenly started screaming, the only time we'd heard this before, was when the female titan called for those opther titans. It must've been a signal. Armin prooved my thought right when pointing towards something wooden flying through the sky towards us. "The colossal one is in there, this place willblow up in a few seconds."

Hanji yelled for everyone to get away from Reiner as fast as possible. We couldn't make it away, could we? The wooden thing was coming down too fast. But it didn't explode, the guy came out and flew towards Reiner, who was still where we had left him. "If the colossal titan transforms, team Levi will protect Eren, Ana, you go through with the plan for the armoured one and everyone else takes care of the colossal.", Hanji ordered. Armin wanted to negotiate with Berthold, this bought me the time I needed to get away from the rest of the team and make a huge way around Berthold to get back to Reiner.

When reaching him, Reiner had tunred oto his back, probably to protect hismelf. No way I could get him like this. And Berthold still seemed to be close enough that his transformation would hit me. From where I was, I could see him flying upwards. would he really transform this close to Reiner, probably not knowing that he had tunred on his back to protect himself? I still had one thunderspeer and no timeto think, the only idea in my head seemed risky and pretty disgusting but I'd die here if I didn'tgo thorugh with it.

Without thinking another second, I crashed the thunderspeer intohis side that wasn't facing Berthold and ran away to pull the leash. The whole of the explosion was barely deep enough for me to hide inside and if he regenerated too fast, I would be stuck in there and probably suffocate but I could already see the light of Berthold transforming so I went through with my plan.

Damn thats disgusting in here. The explosion of Bertholds transformation sweeped over the area, I could see whole houses flying past me, but excpet for an excruciating heat, I didn't get hit by anything from the explosion. Tho, as I thought, Reiner was regenarting fast, but the colossal titan kept throwing houses so I couldn't getout just yet. I started asking myself if Reiner was regenerating this fast on purpose to suffocate me in here. I had to distract him, go through with my plan. "Reiner. Come on wake up." The heat and lessening air were making me lose conciousness slowly. "Hey, give me some air here, yeah? we haven't  even talked yet." But it was only getting worse, my last chance. "The monkey brought the coffee and this greek mythology book.....didn't... he?" Everything went black.
