ON WALL ROSE - (3rd POV:)
Not long after word got out, and some weak soldiers were waking up, Erwin and the Mp's finally arrived on horseback across the top of the wall. With the lifts with them, they were able to lower the horses on the other side. Given the circumstances, Eren's life depended on everything for humanity. Erwin was leading everyone in, bringing hope to everyone else who remained awake.
Their two main goals was to retrieve both Eren and Ymir.
"They're here!" Mikasa claims firmly, as the rest of the recruits already had placed ODM gear on, prepared for battle.
Moblit seems to regained consciousness, being able to see help was on the way here. "Is that....? Oh wow!"
Moblit breathes out in relief, "Ah! Commander Erwin!!!!"
"With Mp's too!"
Armin was always relieved but also astonished, not seeing horses riding on top of the walls like this. It was rather unusual, but efficient enough. He peers up as they were approaching them, "Never thought they'd ride on top of the wall," he comments.
Historia softly hums, "Probably the quickest route here," She assumes, keeping her eyes on the backup.
Yet Armin was hesitant about Historia going along with them, knowing she could be a target as well.
"For the record, I know you won't," He spoke up, earning her attention. "But....I'd much prefer if you stayed behind."
Her eyes harden, "No, not happening," She refuses to back down. "Nice try, though. As long as Ymir's in danger, nothing will keep me here......Sorry, that's just how it is."
Connie nods, "We're all in this together, Armin," while keeping his back to the two blondes. "You're not special, every one of us has a reason for going. Still trying to process mine, to be honest.......Why did Bertholdt and Reiner do what they did?....."
Connie was really pissed, and felt betrayed all at once.
".......I wanna ask while I look them dead in the eye," his eyes harden, tired and exhausted from lack of rest.
Erwin soon approaches everyone as Moblit rushes up to greet him, "Good to see you Commander Erwin," he says with relief, with burns dusting his skin. "Glad you're here!"
"Is the situation still the same?" Erwin questions, when Lena approaches him and salutes.
"Sir! Corporal Akira went missing!" She informs him, only noticing his eyes to widen slightly, but subtly. He kept his serious profile, even though he held many questions.
"What do you mean, by that?" He questions, rather sternly. "If this changes our plans--"
She shook her head, "No, no it won't! But--"
"Commander Erwin...Commander Erwin!"
A weakened soldier that has just woken up, weakly stood up with the help of Tobias walks over to the Commander. The desperation writhing in his voice, concerned the Commander. The soldier indeed was in pain, but his loyalty was to his superiors. Clutching his torso, while Tobias aids him over, he chokes on his words.
"S-She was......she been taken!"
Erwin's eyes harden, "Who? The Corporal?" earning a quick nod. "Why would they need her? It's pointless to abduct her, so.......?"
However Lena's heart sank at the sudden change of news, wondering if the soldier just saw Akira's abduction. She desperately wanted to get her corporal back, but she also knew Levi would have her head if she didn't. Figuratively, speaking.
