An entire week had passed since Ymir Fritz returned to her own timeline.
"I appreciate you taking the time to inviting me, here, Eren Kruger." A Twenty-year-old Zeke Yeager had told a Nineteen-year-old Eren Yeager as Zeke walked behind Eren. Their current presence was inside the halls of castle Mitras. Zeke had short shaggy blonde hair and had worn casual clothing similar Eren's. But he wore a brown hoodie over his dark grayish-green shirt. A pair of black pants and brown shoes. Eren wore his original casual clothing.
"Likewise, Zeke." Eren replied as he roamed with Zeke.
Flashback
On the previous dark night, a Nineteen-year-old Eren Yeager rode a cart with two horses attached to it to the edge of Paradis Island, far south from Shiganshina District in order to meet a younger Zeke Yeager. Eren stood on the sandy beach as he watched Zeke arrive on shore by motorboat.
"I've been expecting you to arrive for quite a while, Zeke." Eren said as he approached Zeke who was preparing.
Zeke glanced at Eren and looked at his emerald-green eyes. "Are you the one who possesses the Founding Titan? Are you Eren Kruger?" Zeke asked.
Eren slowly nodded to Zeke. "Let's put an end to all Eldian's suffering, Zeke."
"Heh." Zeke chuckled. 'Looks like I finally met him, Mister Ksaver. We're one step closer into completing out Euthanization Plan.'
End Flashback
"So, Eren? Where are planning on taking me?" Zeke asked as he continued to follow Eren.
"I'm taking you to meet an ally of ours." Eren replied as he kept walking in front of Zeke.
"An ally?" Zeke replied.
"Yes. Just like us, he understands all the pain and suffering that Eldians had caused over the years and would want to put an end to it." Eren stopped at a door within the halls. "In fact, he's on the other side of this door." Eren paused as he grabbed the doorknob.
"Really? If that's the case, then this "ally" of ours might get along very well." Zeke stroked his chin.
Eren quickly opened the door, and let Zeke walk inside first.
Zeke walked in the room after Eren let him walk first. "Tell me, Eren Kruger. What's his na-" Zeke suddenly stopped in his tracks when he saw a man with glasses sitting at a table. It turns out, the "ally" that Eren had mentioned was Grisha Yeager.
Grisha quickly stood from the table where he sat at. "Z-Zeke?" Grisha stuttered as he staired at Zeke. It had been thirteen years since he'd last seen Zeke. He and his first wife, Dina Yeager had been arrested by Zeke in Marley.
'Dad?' Zeke's eyes widened in absolute horror as he stared at his biological father. 'Why is he here?' The last memory that Zeke had with Grisha was when he turned his parents to the authorities and sent them to Paradis as a Pure Titan over a decade ago. 'What hell is going on? I could've sworn he turned into a Pure Titan many years ago...' Zeke then looked back at Eren who stood by the door in the room. "What is this, Kruger?" He then pointed at Grisha. "And why is this man not a Titan already?" Zeke begun to panic.
Eren looked at Zeke who looked back to him in horror. "Zeke, there's something that you must hear-"
"Why the hell is this man not dead, yet?" Zeke shouted.
"Listen, Ze-"
Zeke interrupted Eren. "You told me that you were taking me to meet an ally of ours who agreed with our Euthanization Plan! But instead, you brought me to the man who selfishly used and tortured me when I was a child!" Zeke Yeager yelled.
