Third person POV

As the Survey Corps soldiers thundered toward the Titan-infested forest, a collective gasp rippled through their ranks as a brilliant flash erupted within the dense foliage.

" A flash ?!". Mikasa's voice cut through the tension.

" I just caught a glimpse of light from inside the forest !". Armin reported urgently.

" What does that mean ?!". Draco questioned, his eyes scanning the ominous surroundings.

Oluo's brow furrowed," Is someone transforming into a Titan ?".

" It's highly likely. We must assume it's the light from a Titan transformation !". Commander Erwin's decisive tone cut through the mounting tension.

" So, we made it in time ?". Oluo sought confirmation.

Draco's nerves tightened as Titans started converging on them, hungry for a gruesome feast.

" All troops, deploy ! Find Eren and Estella and recover them ! We believe the enemy has already transformed ! Our primary goal is to retrieve Eren and Estella; do not engage the enemy unless necessary !". Commander Erwin's orders echoed through the chaotic scene.

" Damn it...". Draco muttered, repulsed, as he witnessed a Garrison soldier being ruthlessly devoured.

" Another Garrison soldier...". Jean's voice wavered with nervousness.

" Phil ! Keep the horses together !". Hannes barked out orders.

" Yes, sir !". Phil responded promptly.

Hannes swiftly employed his Vertical Maneuvering gear, glancing over his shoulder," The enemy should be emerging from the forest ! Scatter ! Locate the enemy first, then notify all other units !".

Mikasa and Armin dismounted their horses, prompting Oluo to direct a stern gaze at Draco.

" Malfoy, stick close to me. It would be a shame to lose one of our assets so soon". Oluo advised, securing his equipment.

Draco followed Oluo, a hint of irritation in his expression," If I die, I'm blaming you".

The forest echoed with a distant yell, capturing everyone's attention as they soared toward the source.

" Was that a Titan's roar ?!". Jean exclaimed.

" It came from inside the forest !". Oluo affirmed.

Draco couldn't help but roll his eyes," Obviously".

Two soldiers, blades drawn, approached from behind," A Titan here ?!".

" That grotesque...". Draco's recognition cut his words short.

Connie hastily intervened, landing on a nearby tree beside Ymir," Hold on ! This is Ymir ! She's one of the captives ! This is her Titan form ! Ymir ! Why are you alone ?!".

Silence lingered from Ymir, unsettling Connie as he stared at the colossal Titan.

" Where's Estella ?!". Draco demanded, urgency in his tone.

" And Eren ?! What about Reiner and Bertholdt ?!". Connie added, desperation in his voice.

Armin's eyes widened," That's Ymir ?!".

" Did she transform and face those two ?". Mikasa pondered aloud.

Oluo's brow furrowed," Something's not right".

Approaching Ymir's Titan, Jean inquired," Ymir ! Did you escape from Reiner and Bertholdt ?! Where did they go ?!".

" Come on, say something, you ugly ! We're in a hurry !". Connie shouted, kicking Ymir's Titan head.
