Reiners eyes spoke every word he couldn't bring himself to say. Followed by the look of betrayal laid upon his face. A rumble came thundering towards Reiner and with a swift jump, the four legged titan took Reiner in its mouth and dashed off. You steadied your feet as the titan took off disappearing within the houses and overgrown green.
"Damn it!" You growled placing your hand onto your sword in case. You heard footsteps ponder behind you and you whipped around to be greeted with Sasha and Connie
Stood behind them was Mikasa, Armin and Eren. You sent Sasha and Connie an equal glance to study their faces. Their looks were in an upsetting manner like something had happened. They were to distraught to relay the message.
"Sash? Connie?...." You asked turning your whole body around. You felt your chest fall heavy and your breathing becoming a difficult task for you to accomplish. They both lowered their heads to stare at the ground. Your eyes quickly shifted to Armin who's face said it all. "Where is he?" You spat quickly.
"Now listen to me-" Armin spoke as he took a step towards you.
"Fuck off! Please! Tell me where!" You pleaded as you became frantic.
"We don't know." Jean spoke as he flew in knowing no one else could bring themselves.
"What happened?!" You screeched as you felt the hot tears race down your cheeks.
"He led the scouts to their deaths.... Including himself." Jean mumbled lowly trying to word it in a simple manner.
"I need to find him!" You huffed in between sobs. You quickly shot your gear hoisting yourself into the air. Your eyes scanning every room, every alley, street. Until you saw Levi who stood on a roof top covered in blood. Your heart dropped as you planted yourself quickly onto the same roof. "Captain?" You choked out. He hesitated to turn to face you.
"Answer me!" You ordered loudly. Levi whipped around with anger coursing his face.
"You do not get to talk to me like that do you hear me?" He yelled angrily only seconds later his face falling as he noticed his outburst. His breathes became shaky. " I am your captain...." You said lowly.
"No no no No NO NO NO NO!!" You started to yelled as you flew into Levi throwing your fists. Levi took your punch's as he attempted to straddle you to refrain you from lashing out. Only seconds later, you were having an sudden meltdown in the arms of your captain. Your tears staining his cloak but he did not once attempt to remove you or make a disgusted attempt. Your knees gave out beneath you and they collided with the roof, your gear clanking at impact.
"Why...." You mumbled as your blurry vision scouted your lap.
"It was the one last duty he wished to serve as commander." Levi spoke his tone back to the cold monotoned manner.
"How could you let him?" You choked on your words as a sob escaped quickly after. Levi refused to make eye contact with you but answered quickly.
"Because he has made his mark. Done his damage. Made the difference-" Levi started but stopped when a screaming voice approached you from below causing Levi to stop his sentence. A clip from an ODM gear shot up to the roof and moments later an orange haired scout appeared with someone on his back. After further insepection your eyes fell onto what was Erwin.
"The commander...he's still breathing.... The only survivor I could find." The scout spoke to Levi. You gasped and quickly rose to your feet and scrambled towards the scout ripping Erwin's dying body from him taking Erwin into your arms. Your body fell back to the ground gently as your hand caressed his dimly warm cheek. Your eyes averted to his chest where you watched a slow inhale and exhale every 10 seconds. He was dying.
"Captain sir!" Armin and the rest of the group flew in their eyes quickly falling onto you holding Erwin I. Your lap. "Sir Eren, he got Bertholdt." Just as he spoke Eren flew onto the roof tossing limbless Bertholdt across the roof landing at the foot of Levi. Levi's eyes widened for a few seconds as he started to fumble under his cloak for something. He quickly pulled out a small box.
"Captain?...." You asked as you watched him closely.
"I'm going to give Erwin this injection and he will turn and eat Bertholdt." Levi instructed as he approached you and knelt down and grabbed Erwin's limp arm. Erwin must've used all his might to smack his arm out of Levi's grip. Tears fell down your cheeks harder.
"No damnit it Erwin, you don't get to do this to me. You don't get to be selfish and leave me behind. Mother fucker please! Please don't allow yourself to leave me, I need you..." you exhaled as you blinked another set of tears to fall. You closed your eyes as you couldn't bring yourself to accept this all. "I can't live with myself if I let you die when there's a chance you could've lived..." You slowly opened them back up to Levi injecting Erwin who showed no resistance this time. Levi quickly hopped up.
"Everyone get out of here, I don't want Erwin to eat the wrong target. Now!" He ordered as he sent them a glance as they hopped off the roof and through the buildings as far as they could get. Levi looked down at you and you shook your head. "We need to wait til he eats Bertholdt to get him out, we'll only be a few rooftops away." Levi explained and he grabbed your arm slowly removed you from under Erwin and you complied. Just as you both landed on a roof, a spark of lighting escaped from where Erwin stood and a titan roared at the top of its lungs.
You gasped at the sudden sight of Erwin's titan grabbing a distraught screaming Bertholdt. Your hand flew to your mouth as you turned to look away. Thought Bertholdt had betrayed you all, he was still someone you knew and you couldn't go through another death of someone you knew. Levi noticed you turning your gaze away and quickly stepped in front of you helping you block the view.
"Now!" Levi yelled minutes later as Erwin's titan has swallowed Bertholdt. He shot his gear towards the titan and you followed quickly behind. "Let me get him out, I don't want you to accidentally slice him." Levi called out to your and you nodded to yourself. Levi swung around the titan and landed on the back of his napes raising his sword to emerge Erwin. Within moments, steam started to escape the nape and through the steam you saw a body inside the arms of Levi's silhouette. You exhaled a sob of relief. It worked.
The serum worked and Erwin's here. A small smile appeared on your face as you helped yourself to join Levi on the limp titan pulling Erwin out. The first touch of your hand on Erwin's cheek cause his eyes to flutter slowly open. His blue orbs scanning his surroundings as he came to. His eyes quickly landing on you and a smile crept on the corner of his lips.
"Erwin" Levi huffed in relief as well. Erwin's eyes scanned Levi and then fell quickly back onto you. He reached his hand out slowly and cupped your cheek.
"I'm here Erwin, I'm here" you smiled softly as another year fell down your tear stained cheeks. You leaned forward planting a cheek on Erwin's cheek just before leaning your forehead against his. You almost let him slip away from you. You were gonna be damned if you are gonna let it happen again.
AN: Yee so I spared Armin because I couldn't bare having another outcome if I play this by the manga and show. So Armin was spared! 👏🏽
