Heading straight towards Utgard Castle, Nero looks up ahead to see alot of Titans heading inside towards the castle. He begins to draw his blades as he then talks to his horse. 

Nero: Aether, get away from here as far as you can. Save yourself. 

He then shoots his anchor up towards the tower as the other Section Commanders noticed his arrival. 

Gelgar: Hey! It's Spartacus! 

Nero dashes towards a Titan that was trying to climb the tower and slices it's nape off, making it fall on the ground and onto smaller Titans. He then stations himself on the wall as the Scouts rappelled next to him. 

Nanaba: Are we glad to see you?

Nero: How are this many Titans here? They're not active during the night. 

Nanaba: Not too sure. But there's alot of them. 

Lynne: Spartacus, one of the Titans got in the tower, and it's head for the others. 

Nero: I'm on it!

He then leaps off the side of the tower as he slices off two more Titan napes before heading inside and running up the stairs. Running up the stairs, he hears some doors being busted down, making him run as fast as he can. When he arrives, he sees a small Titan covered in rubble as it was knocked down by a cannon and blinded by a pitchfork. 

He then spots another small titan making it's way back towards the others inside, but Nero jumps on the top of his head in front of the others, slicing it's nape off and looks at his friends. 

Nero: ... Hey guys. 

Connie: Nero! Are we glad to see you?!

Ymir: Good timing too. 

Just as Nero sheathes his blade, he was surprised by a hug from Christa. 

Christa: I'm glad your okay.

Nero: I should be saying that though. 

He then notices Reiner on the ground, holding his arm in pain. The titan he killed must have crushed Reiner's arm with it's teeth, and Nero was too late for it. 

Nero: Reiner, you okay?

Reiner: Ggh... I'll be fine, kid. Agh!

Nero: Hey! Don't force yourself.... Oh, god. The bones are most likely fractured. 

Reiner: Of course, it's just how my luck runs. 

Nero: ... We need alcohol to soothe the pain, then we need a splint and bandage. 

Christa: ... Easy enough. 

Nero: What?

Christa then begins to tear off part of her dress as she then kneels down, grabbing an alcohol bottle and pouring it onto Reiner's arm. Then wrapping the cloth around his arm and neck. 

Christa: The cloth's filthy. I haven't been able to wash it since forever... I'm sorry. 

Reiner: ... No sweat. It does the job. 'Marry me.'

Nero: *sigh* ... I'm sorry I wasn't here on time. A lot has happened on my way... Miche's dead. 

Bertholdt: But the important thing is your here now, Nero. That's all that matters. 

Nero: ... *nods* 

Connie: So, you gonna be all right or what?

Reiner: Think so. Probably...

Connie: ...

Ymir: Y'know, Christa, I, uh... I got a little scratched up myself. 

Nero: You now decide to pick the time to play patient, Ymir?
