Part Two: The Day we Remember...

Page Two: Year 845

I've made friends, actually friends! Well, we've only known each other for about twenty minutes now. But it's the longest time I've ever been close too people my own age. Eren's personality is strong, he's probably the most determined person I've ever come across. He's talking a lot about wanting too join the Survey Corps when he comes of age. Armin Arlet, he's smart, a lot smarter than me, that's for sure. He'll certainly make a great academic someday. Mikasa, she's different... not in a bad way of course, but I've never met anyone who looks quite like her. And she seems extremely protective of Eren. Maybe they're siblings? Would it be rude to ask their relationship towards each other?

You made sketches of your three new companions on the page next too where you had written about them. Surprised with another new talent, you decided that you would take up drawing as well. Could be a useful skill too have.

"Oi, (Y/N) you agree with me, right? It's worth it, at any cost?" Eren's voiced startled you, closing the leather bound journal and placed it in you jacket pocket.

"Sorry, I wasn't listening. What were you guys talking about?" You replied, Jumping down from seated position on the ledge, too stand by the river's edge.

Eren,  who walked down the stone steps too stand next too you, began too look at the shiny, rippling water that the afternoon sun had effect on. His gaze lingered for a few moments before looking at wall Maria, his face contorting into a frown.

"We're stuck in these pens, like cattle... why does it have to be this way? Why can't people just let us dream?!" Eren yells out, at no one in particular.

You probably understood more than anyone where he's coming from, being isolated your near entire life got you craving for even a sliver of freedom.

"Someone's going to hear you, so keep it down." Mikasa directly stated. Until now you hadn't heard her speak, but you got the feeling that when she did, you should heed her words.

The three new friends, that seem too have adopt you amongst their numbers, bicker towards each other more for some time. It gave you time too think what you truly wanted. Freedom. Freedom is worth it, no matter the cost, no matter what monstrous acts that had too be formed. It's definitely a worthy goal.

"If only we could fly..." You muttered, staring at the top of wall Maria.

The world, went eerily silent.

BOOM!

Caught of guard, you luckily stumble backwards, instead of plummeting into the river below. The ground seemed too shake underneath your feet and caused you too topple into the dirt with the others. but as soon as it started, it vanished. Letting you all get up from the ground, confused on what just happened.

"What was that? An earthquake...?" Eren questioned, but before he could get an answer, you all notice the townspeople running towards something.

Armin was first too follow them, getting called out by Eren, that rushed after him. Looking towards you, Mikasa, with a gesture with her head, tells you too follow. You trail after them, eventually leading too the streets. Finally catching up with Armin, you was going too question why'd he rush away like that, only too be caught of by your own sharp inhale of air. Like countless other pairs of eyes, you look up at the wall seeing a giant, crimson hand, gripping at the wall with such intensity that the wall was began too crumble beneath its harsh treatment. Steam poured into the air, like smoke from chimney's of those big factory's in the industrial area's.

"That's-That's impossible! That wall is fifty meters high...!" Armin squeaked out, terrified and shocked like everyone else.

The great beast finally reveals itself. It's head, skinless, showing only sinew and stretched muscle; peeks itself over the wall. It's eyes, were small compared too the rest of it's head. They were beady and held no traces of empathy or any other emotion. A tightly closed mouth, that still somehow let out barrages of skin melting steam.
