Chapter 2

Father?

Eren held his head. "What was that?"

"Good Morning Eren!" Connie patted the back of Eren. "Uh, hey..." Eren still tried to remember something.

"What's wrong? You trying to remember what happened last night?" the shorter boy smiled.

"How do you know I'm trying to remember something? Oh and by the way, I'm trying to forget what happened last night." Eren groaned. Connie was confused. "Wha? Why?"

"Captain let me do all the dishes last night..." Eren showed his hands at Connie. It was steaming.

"What happened to that?" he scratched his head. "I don't know how to handle a plate..." Eren blushed in embarrassment. "Wait, you broke some plates?!"

While eating at the table, Levi explained what will happen when they will go to Wall Sina. "Oh, before going there, let us head first to the reclaimed land where Reiss grew up."

Eren and Historia are trying not to make any contact. Historia knows Sasha will tease her and Eren. Eren is busy trying to remember what he dreamed of last night.

"Um, Historia, can you please pass the bread?" Sasha batted her eyes. She was too far away from her. The person on the middle is Eren. "Y-yeah..." she sighed and took the basket and gave it to Eren. He passed it to Sasha. "Thanks you two!" she gobbled up two pieces of bread.

"Good thing there are only few dishes." Armin enlightened. It was his turn to wash.

Mikasa went wood chopping with Eren. While chopping a big tree, Eren was still trying to remember what he dreamed about. "Eren, move out!" Mikasa yelled. Eren was not snapping out. The tree fell to him too quickly that Mikasa did not save him on time.

Eren! Wake up!

The boy was lying unconscious on the grassy forest. Mikasa tried to lift the fallen tree but it was still too heavy. "Eren, you just wait! I'll just call heichou." Mikasa dashed back to the cabin.

The tree was crushing his legs. It hit his head first, then when he fell, the tree's trunk was on his legs.

Am I dead?

I want to be with my parents again.

I miss them so much.

But, my friends...

And humanity...

I must not let go of this fight.

"Ugh..." Eren groaned. His head ache worsen. He is only barely conscious, with his eyes opened halfway.

He tried to move his arms, and he tried to crawl. "So, I am not yet dead." He felt his legs broken. The knee caps were popping. "GAH!"

Then he heard footsteps. "Help!" Eren cried out. "Eren!" the two Ackermans replied. "Alright, Mikasa, you lift the branches while I lift the trunk part." Levi ordered.

The two lifted the tree, and moved it at another side. When they were done, Mikasa rushed back to Eren's side. "Oh no..."

His joints were dislocated and bones were cracked. The trunk also had some branches so it pierced through his skin. It was a bloody mess.

"Wha-what does it look like?" Eren tried to look back. The pain was going through his bones. "Shit!" he cussed in pain. "Eren, try not to move. Mikasa and I will just carry you." Levi said. Mikasa lifted him on the right side while Levi on the left. "Alright, now let us move carefully."

Steams and blood were going out of his legs. Eren felt very dizzy. "Let us hurry up, captain. Eren can die in this condition." Mikasa said in a worried tone.
