SAGA I - ANTICIPATION

"All the clouds in me are raining"

~rhsin

As mentioned it has already been 3 years since the test you conducted for the new trainee. You always wondered about that boy named Eren when you got tired of your word. You no doubtedly improved using your power and at the same time, you developed new strength. For instance, you developed the tendency to harm your opponent using fire, but it was at a weak stage.

You were walking to the hall where Erwin requested your presence. You saw new appointments of Survey corp roaming here and there. Erwin had to make his announcement henceforth he wanted you to be on the stage. It was embarrassing for you since you always avoided public places.

You walked among them, who were celebrating carefree, with the usual dead expression on your face. You have never enjoyed yourself in the victory or success nor have you ever cried for the failure. The only person who could ever change your stoned face was your mother.

"Eren" You turned to look. It was the green-eyes guy whom you often thought of, being called by his friends. He turned to smile at them and was happy to be selected as the top-notch.

You stared at him and had no doubts about the fact that he would have forgotten about you, henceforth you turned away and walked to Erwin's office. You were delighted to see him here and were sure that he was improving at a Quick pace.

I wish he attains what he desires. You walked away with a smile wishing him the best.

Eren could sense his beats going faster as if you were around him. He turned to look and saw your back. He remembered your long strands which were fluttering when you walked. He wasted no time and started to call your name. But due to the crowd neither his words nor he could reach you.

"Erwin, you needed my presence?"

"Yes. Come and sit" He pointed to the empty seat beside his table.

"It's about the sovereignty in Wall Sina"
You looked at him asking him to proceed.
"Internally the system of Emperorr, your father, is too chaotic. I sent a man to keep eyes on him" Erwin sighed as he proceeded "Your mother is alive locked in a chamber with little to no food. And the alarming information is your father gained the reign of purity"

Reign of purity was a rare power. It is said that he could foresee one's future dangers who has gained control over him.

He must have consumed his child again. You resolved the source in your mind.

"How many years could he have control over the reign of purity?"

"Approximately equal to human's lifespan"
You sat there in dismay. You will already die before his power vanishes. It was frustrating for you. The distance between your mother and you was growing every year. No matter how fast you ran, you couldn't reach her.

"Will I even be able to save her?" Your grip over your uniform tightened as you got demoralized about your failure.

Erwin kept his hand over your shoulder showing his support.
"Only if you try"

He was right you could only save your mother if you try not to cry or get discouraged.

"Yeah," You kept thinking about your mother and the time you spent with her.

If only I was powerful enough. You regretted.

"I need some time alone"

"Take your time" Erwin was worried about you but he trusted that you would get over this yourself.
