Fable stands next to Levi and the others watching the titan get closer to the wall. The canons aren't doing a thing. She listens to Erwin give orders.
             "Here Fable you're hair is coming undone," she hears Hange say, "let me help."
              Hange pulls her hair out and then quickly puts it back into a ponytail.
                "Thanks," she says softly at her and then watches the titan get closer, "sorry I can't be more help."
                   "It's alright you can't help being hurt it comes with the job," Hange says as a sudden shift in wind occurs.
                   Fable feels the heat from the titan blowing on her. Then she watches as the titan manages to raise onto its feet. She looks at the titan's insides were all exposed.
                 "That is..." Fable starts looking at it
                 "Amazing," Hange interrupts
                "Disgusting," Fable says looking at Hange, "we really need to get you checked out."
                 She watches as the insides fall onto the wall splattering. Hange helps Fable douse herself in water and then douses themselves. Fable watches as the titan starts losing balance due to the impact of the barrels Hange made. The titan finally explodes from Eren throwing explosive down its throat. Fable hears Erwin tell them to use their ODM gear to finish it off and that's what she did. She fires her gear and starts souring through the sky. She starts slicing the pieces of the titan. Fable watches as Historia cuts the piece with Rod Reiss in it. She then watches as Levi lands on the other side of the wall. She sighs a joins him watching him walk away towards what looks to be Kenny.
                   "Levi," she says taking his hand.
                   Levi turns to the face her and says, "come on."
                    She smiles softly walking with him over to the man. He definitely didn't look the greatest.
                   Fable stops walking and says, "I'll leave you alone okay. Looks like you need a minute alone."
                   Levi looks back at her.
                   "I'll be here if you need me," she says smiling softly.
                   Fable places a kiss onto his hand before he walks away from her and towards Kenny.
               "Kenny," Levi says standing in front of him.
               "Ah shit not you aga—," Kenny manages to say before coughing up blood.
               "Found what's left of your squad," Levi says looking down at him, "It looks like they were crushed in the cave-in. I guess you were the only survivor?"
             "Mm. Sure looks that way," Kenny responds
               "Between the burns and the blood you've lost, there's nothing that can save you now," Levi says
                "Oh, yeah?" Kenny says, "I wonder. Swiped this sucker out of Rod's bag back in the cave. Seems if I just stick myself, I'll turn into a big, strong Titan. One of the dumb ones unfortunately. But of a while it oughtta keep me..alive."
              "You had the time and strength to inject yourself before I got here if you wanted. Why didn't you?" Levi asks looking at him.
              "Fair point. I guess I'm just scared. If I don't inject it right, then I might turn out the same as Rod. All messed up like."
                 "I know you're not just sitting here wait to bleed to death. Surely you have a better excuse than that."
                "Well, runt, the thing is, I don't feel like shin' without my dream com in' true. But I see now. After all this time, I think I see why he did it."
                Levi looks at the man confused as he laughs.
                "We humans, we're all the same. Every last one of us. For some it's drinkin. For some it's women. For some even religion. Family. The king. Dreams. Children. Power. All of us had to spend our lives drunk on somethin. Else we'd have no to keep pushin on. Everyone was a slave to somethin. Even him."
                 Levi watches as Kenny coughs up more blood.
                 "So what's your poison runt? Heroics? That little lady over there?"
                 Levi slams Kenny against the tree and says, "Kenny. Tell me everything you know about the king. The first king. Why didn't he want mankind to survive?"
                "Don't know, beats me," Kenny responds, "that's said, I know that's part of the reason that we Ackermans decided to turn coat."
            He manages to get out before spitting blood all over Levi.
               "So apparently, that's my name as well. Tell me. Who are you? What were you to my mom?"
               "Heh. You dumbass. I'm just her brother."
                 "That day. Why? Why did you leave me?"
                 "Because I just wasn't cut out to be somebody's dad."
                 Kenny shoves the case with syringe and vile into Levi's chest and then dies. Fable slowly walks over to Levi. She kneels down next to him.
                   "Levi?" she says looking at him wiping the blood of his cheeks with her cloak.
                    "He was my uncle," he manages to tell her.
                     Fable looks at the body in front of them and then at Levi asking, "are you okay?"
                      "I don't know."
                       She sighs softly wrapping her arms around his neck. She hold him for a minute before letting go.
                     "Ackerman huh," she says softly looking at him.
                    Levi nods and says, "Ackerman. Now come on we have a coronation to attend to."
                   Fable smiles softly at him before pressing lips to his cheek. They both stand up. Levi takes her into his arms and uses his odm gear fly back.
                 After the ceremony, she follows the group of kids so she can watch Historia hit Levi. She listens to the kids place bets and say other things until they finally reach their Captain. Fable watches as Historia gains up the courage to punch Levi. Levi moves so she would hit his arm.
                     "Did that hurt?" Historia asks looking at him, "Well I'm queen now, so too bad!"
                    Fable smiles listening to Levi chuckle a little and smile causing the kids to gasp.
                      "Thanks you guys I need that," he says looking up at them.
                        Fable watches as the kids leave the hallway leaving just her and Levi. She smiles looking at him.
                      "What?" he asks looking at her.
                      "You really care about them done you?" she asks walking over to him.
                      "What makes you think that?" he questions wrapping arms around her waist.
                      "I don't know I just know," she says smiling at him.
                     Levi puts his forehead against hers smiling. "I love you," he says softly against her ear.
                    "I love you," she says looking at him.
                     He presses his lips against hers. He continues kissing her until the both of them hear Hange squeals from behind them. Fable's face turns a bright shade of red causing her to immediately hide her face into Levi's chest.
