Complications Throughout Generations

Chapter 82

Levi's POV:

"Dad!" I shook him violently. "Wake up!"

"Furlan." Isabel painfully whispered.

I turned around and saw Furlan lying lifeless with his eyes open. Isabel's head was bleeding. She's losing a lot of blood. Looking back at my father, I examined the glass in his face with blood dripping down his neck. I shakily moved my hand up to take the glass out of his face until I heard the sirens. Maybe he wasn't dead, they may be able to save him.

"Dad, wake up, please!" I started to cry uncontrollably. I was petrified. But I felt like I needed to do something. I started to take the glass out of his face. Unsurprisingly, I threw up once I took the long shard out of his eye. I was covered in blood. "Please." I cried. My hands were stained red.

The doors swung open. It was a police officer. He grabbed me and took me out of the car.

"No!" I started to scream. "Daddy! I want my dad!" I had my arms stretched towards the destroyed car. I was put on a bed into an ambulance and they had to strap me down. "Wake up." I was sobbing and shaking. They had taken my shirt off. But then I noticed all the blood on my stomach. I was bleeding. That was my blood. I hadn't even noticed I was cut with the broken glass of the windshield.

"Wake up!" I jolted awake by my screams and covered my mouth in fear I woke someone up. I turn on my phone screen and saw it was 3am. I went through my recent texts to find Eren's name. I immediately chose to call him and waited for it to pick up. On the second ring, he accepted the call.

"Hey, Levi." I groggily spoke. "You okay?"

I shook my head but remembered he couldn't see me. "Nightmare." I was quiet.

"Same one?"

"Yeah."

Although I plan on keeping some distance between us, I still need him.

"Just talk to me about anything, okay? I'm here."

Somehow I always felt like Eren understood the meaning of loss more than anyone. But how? He had both his parents, he had all his friends, he was an only child. My new assumption is that everything will be answered in that book. I gave it back to Hange. After seeing that I had once before lost Isabel and Furlan, I couldn't continue.

"Eren, what was my sister to you in your past life?" It probably wasn't the best thing to ask but there are certain things that can't be answered in a book.

"She was my best friend. One of the greatest people I've ever met."

"Did you ever love her?"

"Of course." I felt like if I had asked what kind of love, I would've given myself away. So I chose not to ask further questions on the subject.

"What were we like?" I was afraid of the answer. Within the memories I've gotten, I'm not sure what any of it means.

"Us?" His voice went from comforting to anxious. "We...uh...we were close. You were a lot older than me by 15 years or so. I mean you were Captain Levi and I was the Attack slash Founding Titan...and then later on the Warhammer, but whatever. There wasn't much room for a relationship." Maybe those words weren't written by Eren. Maybe we were just friends. He did say he loved Mikasa so maybe he was with her. "But I will say this." I was hoping for something a little better than what he's said so far. "We did care very deeply for each other. I know personally I would've done anything for you back then." Back then he says. "I'm shocked you didn't hate me after everything I did." What did he do? Why would I hate him?

"What did you do?"

He sighed. "Hange told me you're reading the book." God, her and that big mouth. "It's...it's in there. But can you do me a favor? Just keep in mind that none of that is possible now and that's Eren from the 800's, not Eren from the 2020's here, okay?"

"Thanks for the disclaimer."

"Please, Levi. Promise me."

"Fine." I groan. "I promise."

Now I'm really curious.
