Hyuga in Attack on Titan

Perfect memory (49)

Armin feeling like he had no other choice, hoped that his horse would run faster, he did not want to die like this.

"Come on...faster, faster," He said as he hoped to outrun the female titan, he could practically feel the titan's footsteps right behind him.

He could tell that the female titan was gaining on him with every passing second, he could hear the heavy thumping that was caused by each and every single one of her footsteps.

Oh...he was so going to die, no matter how he looked at this, he did not see how he could possibly survive this.

As the female titan reached him she stopped, her gaze seemed to be where the middle of the crew should be located, as if she was making an estimation.

The female titan then rushed past him and ignored him as if he did not exist.

Armin was left stunned....why did she not want to follow him?

Sure he was thankful about it but... what could possibly force her...

*DING*

Armin eyes widened, it all clicked, it all came to him at once, the reason that the female titan wanted nothing to do with coming closer to him.

It wasn't that she was scared or not interested in killing him...no, he was within range.

Armin was within Akira's range....the words that Akira had told him that day looped in his mind over and over again.

The words about the collosol titan being aware of his eyes, the words of a traitor being among the cadet.

It all made sense now.

Making some quick mental math, Armin was trying to narrow down who the female titan might be.

He knew it was a member of their cadet squad and since the titan inherited the shifter gender, the female titan was a girl.

Eren Titan had his hair color.

So....The cadet must be a blond.

It could not be Krista......so that left.......

Before Armin could make up his mind.

Reiner's voice came from behind him and said "Armin...are you okay"

Armin still shaken a bit, just nodded his head, the both of them did not slow down at all cause you know...50 fucking Titans were behind them

"I came as soon as I saw your smoke signal" Reiner added to which Armin added.

"She is like Eren....she is a titan shifter"

Reiner looking at the boy had a look on his face that could not really be described.

"What made you think so?" Reiner asked his fellow cadet.

"She shows signs of obvious intelligence....she came toward us with a horde of titans, as if she was trying to hide from something...to be more specific, someone sight"

Reiner had a cold sweat running behind his head.

"Are you certain?" He said looking at the boy.

"I am sure....she is aware of Akira's sight and considering the fact that Akira had only revealed his secrets to some member of the 104 cadet squad..."

"Who do you have in mind" Reiner asked seriously.

"Annie"
..

...

..

There was a horde of titans behind them....if Armin's horse got into an accident and fell, his fate was practically sealed...Reiner could argue that he ran for his own life.
