The boat jolts, causing all us to fall forward. "Damn it! We're almost dry." Onyankapon yells from the cockpit. I lean down to look out the window. "Shit. I can see him." Just as I finish talking, we're flung into the dark clouds of steam radiating off of the colossal titans below us. Onyankapon is flying blind.

"Target sighted! Get ready to jump!" Onyankapon yells. "Don't jump until you're sure you'll be landing on the target." "What about you?" Jean yells. "Don't worry about me, I'll get this thing on the ground somehow." He replies.

The doors swing open and we're looking down at the rumbling from above. "Shit." I hear a Conny yell. "We're really doing this?!" At that moment, the plane is pelted with some sort of hard material. "The beast is in the field!" Levi yells.

Armin quickly reiterates the plan once more, as Onyankapon lowers the boat closer to the founders giant body of bones. It's time to jump. I turn to Reiner, whose gaze is focused on the beast titan, hanging from one of the spikes below. I grab the collar of his shirt and pull his face down close to mine.

"I love you!" I have to yell over the sound of the flying boat and the wind rushing past. "You mean everything to me Reiner. You are worthy!" I lift myself up on my toes and kiss him hard on his mouth, he grabs the back of my head and presses me into him.

He releases me from the kiss just as Armin jumps out the flying boat, down to the founding titan. "Don't die, kid." Reiner orders. I nod and I'm right behind him as he jumps out.

I soar through the air towards the giant spine below. I am dodging the onslaught of bone matter that the beast titan is throwing towards up.

"Shit! I can't touch down!" Conny yells from just ahead of me. I speed up and grab him around the waist to get him out of the line of fire. He finally reorients himself and swings up towards Reiner and the Beast.

I notice Reiner shift out of the corner of my eye and lunge towards the Beast. He rips him down and I hook on to a bone spike to watch as he tumbles down the spine with the beast titan in tow. "Reiner!" I hear Jean yell from beside me.

Reiner quickly defeats the beast and. I swing down to him, landing on his shoulder. "Why didnt the rumbling stop?" I ask. "Looks like it was an empty husk. Killing it accomplished nothing." Levi adds.

"I'm sorry Armin, but it's time to face the-." Jean starts but is cut off.

"I know!" Armin yells. "Exactly 1 minute from now, I'll blow his bones to pieces. Use the cart to get free. If I do enough damage to the founding titan, we might be able to find Zeke and Erens bodies." I look over to Mikasa, who is wearing an expression of devastation and horror. I feel for her, I really do.

Conny and Mikasa swing towards Pieck, while Jean and I stay with Reiner on his shoulders, running towards the nape. All of a sudden, we hear Mikasa scream for Armin and look behind us to see dozens of titans lined up against the bone spikes, all made from  war hammers titan. We stop running. "What the hell is that?!" I hear Jean yell.

I look at the titans before us, all unique in their own way  but some similar to each other. "It's the nine." I say. "It's all the people who bore the power before us." 

"That's just great! Now we have to fight a bunch of zombie titans!" Jean yells sarcastically.

The titans start charging towards us. "Shit!" Jean yells and I hear him zip away. I hear Reiner huff out at me, urging me to go. I take one last look at him and swing away just as one of the titans leaps onto Reiners body. Reiner tries to fight it off but another one grabs his head from behind.

My feet move before I have time to second guess my actions. I hit the gas in my right and push myself above Reiner. As soon as I can get a good shot, I release two thunder spears, both going into the napes of the titans attacking him. Just as a third titan is about to join the fray, Mikasa provides back up, giving Reiner a few moments of solace. Jean and I land back onto Reiners shoulder, staying vigilant of our surroundings.
