Everyone who was on the wall were taking care of those who had been knocked out by the head and wind pressure.

The twin's ears perked up at the sound of the wagons.

"They're here." The dark haired boy announced.

"Commander Erwin!" Moblit rejoiced, sitting up. "And the Military Brigade!"

As the lifts were set up, everyone gathered around Hanji who had awoken.

"It's small, but there's a forest of giant trees here." Hanji informed. "That's where you should be going. I doubt the Armored Titan can hide its footprints very easily, but this is where they'd want to go."

"Why?" Erwin asked.

"This is just a guess, but even if they transform, they still have to deal with normal Titans outside the walls." Hanji theorized. "And after a battle like that, while they won't be as trashed as Eren, they're still gonna be pretty exhausted. Apparently Annie had a lie-in after she transformed, too. So let's assume their goal is to get outside Wall Maria. We can also assume that they don't have the stamina to go that far. Wouldn't that mean they need to rest somewhere the other Titans can't reach them? And then at night, they'll set out again!"

After the plan was set and the soldiers prepared for the battle, Erwin, Hanji, and the two twins talked.

"Who are you?" Erwin questioned.

"I'm Niko." The dark haired twin introduced. "This is my younger twin, Riku. We believe we're related to one of your soldiers."

"Oh?" Hanji perked up. "Which one?"

"A soldier by the name of Sakura Ackerman."

Erwin and Hanji exchanged a look.

"What is it?" Riku growled.

"She was taken during the battle." Hanji quietly answered.

Riku glared at nothing as Niko placed his hand on his brother's shoulder.

"We want to help fight. You see, we're shapeshifters. We can turn into wolves."

"You're just tired, man!" Eren placed his hand on Reiner's shoulder. "Right, Bertolt? I'm not surprised you're delirious after all you've been through." 

"Y-Yeah." Bertolot stammered. "Reiner's just tired!" 

"Besides, if you really were the big, bad, Armored Titan, why would you be telling me about this?" Eren asked. "Why would I ever nod my head and go along with you after hearing that?" 

"Oh." Reiner paused. "Yeah, that's right. What's gotten into me? Have I really gone crazy?"

"Look, let's just get going." Eren ignored Reiner's self-doubt.

Sakura jumped slightly as the flag was ripped out of the ground, clattering along the wall as it fell to the floor.

Everyone paused as the flag clanged at the bottom, wondering what Reiner and Bertolt would do.

Sakura let out a tiny breath as the sun shone through the sky, hoping that Reiner and Bertolt wouldn't do anything that would cause them to fight back.

"Oh, I know." Reiner spoke up. "I've been here too long, that's all. It's all because I lived here for three years, surrounded by idiots. We were just kids. We didn't know anything. If only I hadn't known that you idiots existed, I never would've become such a half-assed piece of shit!"

"But you've treated us as if we were your brothers and sisters." Sakura gently reminded him.

"Yeah, we have." Bertolt nodded.

"I don't know what's right and what's wrong anymore." Reiner continued, removing his makeshift sling. "All I know is my duty right now. I have to consider all my actions and choices up until now and fulfill my obligations as a warrior!"

"Are we doing this, Reiner?" Bertolt questioned. "Right here, right now?"

"Yeah." Reiner confirmed. "We'll settle everything here!"

"No..." Sakura whispered, eyes wide.

Mikasa jumped from around Eren, slashing her blade into Reiner's arm before swirling over to Bertolt and slashed his throat.

"Eren, run!" Mikasa shouted.

Reiner slammed into Mikasa, who dug her hook in the wall.

"Bertolt!" Reiner yelled, standing protectively in front of him as the two started glowing. 

"Eren! Sakura! Run"

To both teens, the yell was lost.

"Sakura!" Haru shouted, moments before the wind picked up and a yellow light enveloped Reiner and Bertolt.

Sakura was thrown out of her trance as she was thrown backwards, the back of her head hitting the ground.

She let out a silent groan, her eyes widening as Bertolt picked her up in one hand.

"Sakura!"

~~~

Hannes flew over the wall with one of his comrades and two boys. Twins.

Hannes let out a gasp, seeing the Colossal Titan sitting on the wall, steaming pouring out in all directions. 

"What the heck?" Hannes exclaimed. 

He landed on the wall, the two twins following suit. 

"It really is the Colossus..." Hannes breathed out. "What's that son of a bitch doing here? Where's Eren? What's the situation?" 

 "They're over on that side!" Historia pointed in the direction of where he had gone.

"Thank you." The dark haired twin nodded to Historia as he and his younger twin followed Hannes to the edge of the wall.

"Eren?" Hannes exclaimed. "That's his Titan form?"

Together, the trio on the wall watched as the Armored Titan ran at Eren, headbanging him against the wall, throwing a punch at him.

Eren flipped the Armored Titan to the ground, standing up.

The Armored Titan got up again, tackling Eren to the ground. Eren was able to wrap his legs around his waist, the neck of the other Titan held tightly between his arms.

"Yeah! Get him, Eren!"

A dark haired girl was able to fly down, cutting the back of the Armored Titan's legs with her blades.

"Go, Eren!"

"Finish him, Eren!"

"Rip his head off!"

"Drag that traitor outta there!"

The Armored Titan started crawling, Eren still holding him, before suddenly stopping. When he had got to his spot, the Armored Titan started roaring.

"Watch the surroundings! He's calling for Titans!"

"Why'd the Armored Titan scream like that?"

Everybody on the wall looked to the Colossus Titan the moment it started screaming.

The white haired twin, the younger twin, growled, narrowing his eyes at the Titan that was starting to tilt over the side of the wall.

"Look up!" A bald teen screamed. "Get out of there!"
