After I died

63

Levi

"Is she alive? Talk to me foureyes, where is she?!" Hanji had just come back from the medics who rushed Ana away from me. "They wrapped her in bandages. She'll need rest, but they gave her a blood transfusion annd something called an IV. They said she will pull through.", foureyes replied, rubbing a hand over her face.

I wanted to go to her, look for myself if she as fine. But I could barely stumble a few feet forewards and Connie still had to hold me up. "What the hell is that?", I asked. "and what are they doing to her blood?" "Their medicine is way better than ours, they are giving Ana someone elses blood to replace what she's lost since she can't reproduce the blood cells herself in time. I don't exactly know what the IV is but they said something about water mixed with a bunch of stuff that her body needs to heal. She will make it." Thank god.

I almost felt a bit bad for being yelling at her. Hanji had done what she could to save my Ana and now I just have to hope she pulls through. Oh god, please. I can't do this. She can't die, not her. Ana always found some weird ways to survive. She will probably pull something like last time again and make a miraculous reappearance. She had to.

We got distracted by some gas suddenly coming from the worm thing. "What is this? Is the worm dying?" "No, this doesn't smell like titan but.... this is the same thing they did in Ragako." I stared over at Connie as he said it then at Hanji. She understood immeditaly and ran towards Ana.

"Mikasa, get Falco and Pieck, we need to get away from here!", I yelled, Mikasa turned but didn't really react. "What?" "Ackermann's and titan shifters aren't affected by the gas." She undestood and as Falco transformed, Mikasa pulled Pieck onto his back.

Hanji returned short later. Her and Jean carrying the stretcher which Ana was on to Falco as well and carefully putting her on it as well as two bags that were connected to Ana's arm by tubes, one had blood inside, the other a transparent liquid. I helped secure her on the back of Falco's titan so she wouldn't fall off even if no one was holding her.

"But she's not a titan shifter, nor an Ackermann by blood.", Mikasa asked, looking at my wife laying there unmoving. "But she's not eldian either, therefore also unaffected." "Right." Hanji and Jean stepped away from the titan whe they were sure that neither Ana nor the bags would fall off.

"Take care.", four eyes said before they just turned and walked away. We had no time to think as Falco took off. Only seconds after we were in the air, all the others transformed into titans... this can't really be haappeing. "Eren is in the back of his throat. Please help me do this.", Mikasa said.

"I'll be right behind you. Falco, as soon as we're off, you bring Ana somewhere far away. Maybe try to find some place that hasn't been run over yet and get her to a hospital."

Falco

The captain and the other woman jumped off my back and went to attack Eren while I flew away. There was nothing near us. I had no idea how much longer she'd be alive, but then I looked back over at the fortress. All the titans had come down to fight against Annie, Pieck and Reiner, the fortress was safe again and there were still some marleyan soldiers left.

They would help Commander Ana, I had to bring her back there. The way back to the fortress felt way longer than it would've needed to be. She would probably need a new blood bag soon and another IV bag. My titan form suddenly vanished as I was just above the fortress. Luckily the soldiers there came in time and caught us, bringing commander Ana back to the medical station as I started running down to the fortress. All the titans were gone. I had to go find Gabi.

Anastasia

By the time I came back to my senses, I was in a hospital bed. I wasn't sure exactly where and what had happened but the pain on my stomach was mostly gone. I could hear voices outside. Some I recognised, some I didn't. Was that... Hanji? But there were more familiar ones... Armin, Jean... Maggie!

The door opened. "I will just bring the new flowers by-..." My gaze flicked to the nightstand next to me.  There was a vase with flowers in them. Orange-pink tulips. They looked slightly old. Hanji stood in the doorway holding a bouquet of sunflowers and daisies and a bunch of more different bright ones. "A-... Ana..."

"What?", I heard someone behind her say. It wasn defintiely Jean. "She's.... awake." I heard something shift as she said it, someone behind her moved. Then-... "Mom!" Maggie pushed past Hanji. Damn she was getting so big. Maggie didn't look 10 anymore like the last time I'd seen her. She seemed more like a teenager.

She rushed over and hugged me tight. "Maggie...?", I asked. "Is that you?" "Yes. It's me, mom.", the others still stood in the doorway to my hospital room, frozen. "What-... How are you-... You've grown so much." She leaned back to look at me, tears running down her face as I lifted a hand to the side of her face. "It was a coma. You were asleep."

"How long...?", I asked slowly, glancing past her at the others. "3 and a half years.", Hanji replied. "Oh my-..." I was interrupted by a voice on the corridor. "Sorry we're late. Falco lost his hat on the corn field. It took forever to find it." Was that Gabi? "Why are y'all sta,ding around there like idiots in that doorway?" Levi, no question.

He appeared in the doorway short later, tho my few was blocked by Maggie who turned around to him. "Papa, she's awake. Mom, woke up.", she called out. "Ana...?" Maggie stepped aside and I finally saw him. Levi... sitting in a wheelchair, face scarred, one eye seemignly blinded— but alive.
