(The views of this chapter will change a lot. We start with Zuri. Also, the above image is a bit what Zuri looks like in Titan form, but the red should be purple. Also, the hair is brown and much longer. Then of course, the Wings. )
I open my eyes, having a bit of trouble at first. The sight I see is steam clearing to reveal a muscular, 15 meter Rogue Titan and an enraged, confused 14 meter Female Titan. The thing is, I'm looking down at them. The Female Titan looks up at me, then back to Eren. *This'll be interesting..* I think ruefully. *And I can't wait.. for my turn to throw you down to Hell where you belong.*
( Now with Armin's POV. )
I wave some steam from in front of me, and wipe the perspiration from my face. Eren and Zuri's horses had gone berserk, galloping away. I had a feeling Mikasa and I had horses who wished they could do the same thing. I wait stiff on my horse for the steam to clear, unknowingly staring into something that could end up being my death.
The steam clears, and my jaw drops open. Zuri had shifted into a Titan of at least 20 meters. She towered over Eren and Annie, and Annie was both confused and enraged. Annie lets out another scream, though this one is much longer. Eren steps forward, punching into her face. her lower jaw comes of, falling to the ground with a flesh-sounding clunk. Annie stops screaming as she begins to smoke and regenerate. Her eyes go bored and she looks at Eren. She punches into the side of his head and knees him in the chest. Eren falls back, landing hard on the ground. A hole had opened in his chest, though his head was barely damaged. He stays there, regenerating. Annie walks up to him, having to completely forgotten Zuri.
(Back to Zuri's POV. )Annie raises her leg to kick Eren's head off completely, and I kick her legs out from under her. She falls harshly as Eren stands himself and launches himself onto her, attempting to punch her face one time. She dodges, and Eren shifts his gaze down and punches through her collar bone area. A hole appears, and Annie squints her eyes. She throws Eren off, standing up. Her collarbone smokes as she turns to me. She goes to kick me, her leg turning blue.
Ow.
The hit combs easily right through my left leg, and I fall down with a rumble. Annie's elbow turns blue and she drives it through my remaining knee, and I scream out in pain. I spread my wings and fly up, swinging my nerveless leg right into her. She flies back, tumbling on the ground. She looks back up to see Eren Is upon her, sending countless blows at her. Eren keeps her occupied as I land, pain shooting up my leg. It regenerates completely right as Annie succeeds in throwing Eren off, and she gets up. She turns easily on one foot and instantly starts running at me.
She body slams into me, and since she's only about 6 meters shorter than me, her head collides with my chest. I stumble back, gathering myself and getting into a fighting stance. She runs again, her face creased with rage. At the last possible moment, I spread my wings and fly upwards, slamming the bottom of my foot into her face. Her head takes serious damage, and she falls, still sliding under me. I stop my wings from flapping completely, and land full force on her torso. The flesh bursts under my feet, and steaming blood splatters up my legs. *Gross..* I think as I scream in triumph. My foot that I had hit Annie with was smoking as it finished regenerating, and I step off the Titan in which I had pretty much cut in half.
Suddenly, an unknown, male-like Titan scream shatters my own.
I turn around as The Armored Titan slams into me, his plated skin slashing through my skin. I scream as I land on the ground on my back. The Armored Titan stops, his yellow eyes glowing. *Wh-WHAT?!* I think. *A regular Titan.. Is helping Annie?! And it knows how to FIGHT?!*
(WARNING, THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR THE ARMORED TITAN! If you wish not to read this, it will be explained in the next chapter WITHOUT THE SPOILERS! Otherwise, continue. )
( This will be from Eren's POV. )
*No No, This doesn't make sense...* I think, standing up. Annie lays on the ground, her torso smoking. I understand this to be her healing, so I run over and attempt to harm her again. I hear a thump, and I turn to see Zuri on the ground, staring up at the Armored Titan. *W-What?!* I think, staring. *No, That can't be right! The Armored Titan just attacked Zuri inside the walls! He must've breached the wall!*
*... Right?*
My hesitation gives Annie the opportunity to punch upwards right into my leg. I screech. I continue to fight with her, my mind on a totally different subject. *If The Armored Titan is here.. He either breached the wall or has been inside the Walls the entire time. But if that was true, we would all be dead, eaten. But if he had breached the walls, the sirens would have sounded. So..*
*The Armored Titan is like me. He MUST be a Shifter.. There is no other way he would be able to come so easily.. So he must be with Annie against humanity!*
(Now, to Armin's POV. )
I escort the final group of Scouts to the field where we tested Zuri while our two Titan shifters stay behind to fight with Annie. I wipe the sweat from my forehead, and turn my horse around. "Armin!" I hear from behind me. I turn my head to see Mikasa coming up behind me on her own horse. "Where are you going?" She asks. "That's where they are fighting."
"I just.. I wanted to be there in case Eren lost control or something." I say shakily. I wipe the sweat from my hands on my pants, giving them a break from the reins of the horse. "Liar." She says. "You just want to protect Zuri, don't you?"
I nervously gulp. Mikasa looks in the distance, where you could just make out the sounds of thumps and Titan screams. "Why?" She asks. "Hm?" I say, turning to her. "Why? Why do you both love her?" She says. "What does Zuri have that I don't? Eren.. the way he looks at her. You do it too." She says, looking at me.
"Zuri, you both seem to love her." She continues. " But what I saw in her eyes when she stayed behind to help me with Annie. And the was she kissed you.. I just, Zuri is so hard to understand, even for me." She shakes her head, shaking some of her short black hair from her silver eyes. "Armin, I want to be there too. I want to try and understand Zuri Murbin." I say nothing, kicking my horse in the sides. He lightly rears up, and gallops forward. Soon, Mikasa is right next to me. We gallop on towards the Titan fight.
We arrive right as a new scream breaks the triumph sound of The Winged Titan.
