"Mikasa! Sakura!"

"Armin!" Mikasa exclaimed as he landed on the roof they were on.

"Eren's in control!" Armin informed. "He's trying to fulfill his duty. Now, if we can just escort him to the gate, victory will be ours!"

"Defend him!" Jan shouted. "Even if we have to die in the process, protect Eren until he reaches the gate! Keep the Titans away at all costs! You two, head over to Eren. That's an order! Understand?"

"Yes, sir!" Armin and Mikasa responded in unison before running off.

"Sakura, you can go off on your own." Jan turned to look at the younger girl.

"Are you -"

"I trust you." Jan nodded his head before running down the roof, stopping short. "Mitabi's squad?"

"Turn this way, damn it!" A soldier from Mitabi's squad shouted.

"If you don't, we'll kill you by sticking blades up your asses!" Mitabi yelled.

"Does that really work?" Sakura questioned no one in particular.

"No way." Armin commented. "It's suicidal to stay on the ground. They can't fight without horses or buildings."

"No, we have...no other choice." Jan whispered.

"Already beating you to the punch, Squad Leader." Sakura grinned as she hurled herself to the closest Titan, slashing away at its neck.

By the time Eren had succeeded in his goal of closing the hole with the boulder, Sakura had chalked up a kill count of 33 Titans with a handful of assists.

Sakura sighed in relief when she saw Riko fire a yellow flare into the sky.

"The remaining Titans are coming!" Riko informed.

"I'll take care of any stray Titans!" Sakura announced. "You guys get over the wall!"

Before anyone could say anything, Sakura took off, launching herself onto the roof as she took care of a third Titan that no one had scene.

Once finished with that one, she jumped backward, hurling herself to the smaller of the two Titans. 

Another streak of light came hurling for the nape of the other Titan, killing it.

Both Sakura and the other figure landed. Recognizing who it was, Sakura immediately jumped into his arms. 

"Dad!" Sakura squealed. 

Levi smiled to himself for a few moments before it disappeared as he turned around to look at Armin, Mikasa, Eren, and Riko. 

"Hey, you brats. What's going on here?"

Eren's Titan form slammed his fist into the rooftop Sakura and Mikasa were on.

Mikasa was quick to jump out of the way, pulling Sakura with her.

Sakura let out a quiet gasp as a small piece of the roof scratched her right cheek, causing blood to form as she crashed into a wall.

"Ackermann!" Jan yelled as Eren threw his fist back.

Sakura and Mikasa jumped into the air, Sakura landing on her stomach, next to Riko, and Mikasa landing on Eren's Titan face.

"Hey, that's enough." Jan ordered. "Get away from him!"

"Eren, don't you recognize me?" Mikasa ignored the order. "It's Mikasa! Your family! You have to seal the hole with that boulder!"

Next to Sakura, Riko fired the red signal flare, signaling that the plan had gone wrong.
