The next morning a few hours after eating Simon, Eren woke up with no memory and extremely confused by what had happened. More on instinct he headed back towards the city and once he reached the area where the fight between the ARMORED and ATTACK titan had taken place the night before. Once in that place Eren's memories started to reappear and he remembered everything that happened that night and it made him go crazy realizing what he had done, starting to feel dizzy and even throw up.

- Soldier! REPORT ! – shouted a sergeant at Eren as he saw him lying on all fours vomiting.

- Yes, sir. I apologize sir.

- Soldier's name and rank. NOW !

- Eren Kruger, MARLEY PUBLIC SECURITY platoon 2013 ID 29081986 Eldian Internment Area Guard Division, sir.

- Where are your recognition badges soldier? – said the officer looking suspiciously at Eren

- I lost them during last night's attack, sir.

- Did you witness last night's attack?

- Yes, sir. I raised the alarm when I saw what was happening.

- Curious. My men said that none of the soldiers who were here survived. They were all killed by that strange titan that attacked last night.

- It's true sir. It was a real massacre. All my colleagues were killed but I managed to hide and escape.

- So I understand that you preferred to be a coward than to help your colleagues!

- Well sir... – Eren was starting to feel more and more uncomfortable and even shaking with emotions while all the other soldiers looked with increasing suspicion at this man who appeared out of nowhere and didn't immediately go to report what it happened as was the procedure.

- Marleyan garbage! – shouted a child as he hit the sergeant who was interrogating Eren with a rock, causing him to bleed profusely from the head

- What the hell! – shouted the sergeant while looking around him.

And it was no small surprise to see that a very large crowd of people gathered around them and began to shout at the Marleian soldiers and accuse them of being responsible for the attack that evening and for the hundreds of dead Eldians.

Although the soldiers tried to calm them down peacefully within seconds thousands of angry Eldians began to attack the approximately 60 soldiers sent to investigate, the soldiers being taken by surprise could not even draw their pistols to defenses and so most of them were massacred by people too blinded by rage.

Realizing the danger he was in Eren grabbed the gun of the officer next to him and then grabbed a kid in the crowd threatening to shoot him if they didn't let him and the other 5 remaining soldiers go. In all the craziness that had formed everyone froze when they saw this man holding a gun to the head of a 10 year old kid ready to kill him and even though a man in the crowd tried to jump behind Eren and save the kid, Eren also accidentally shot the boy in the leg and then killed the man without blinking, though in his heart Eren felt that he would rather be the one eaten by Simon than participate in such madness.

- Sergeant, are you alright sir? – shouted Eren at the bloody sergeant.

- Yes, I'm fine, young man.

- Everyone back! Get back or I'll kill the boy. I said back! - Eren continued to scream as he fought to hold back his tears, the mere thought of threatening his fellow Eldians causing his heart to break in pain.

As much as the people wanted to kill Eren they had no choice but to let him and the 5 surviving soldiers go. Thus all 6 were walking away from the group that was slowly following them while Eren still held the gun to the head of the struggling boy and tried to hit Eren.
