Chapter Two:
"The Trial."
~•~•~•~
You walked into the courtroom and stayed next to Levi. You had stayed up last night trying to compose yourself because you knew beforehand that you would be staying next to Levi.
No matter how many times I deny it in front of Hanji I do like the Corporal...I like him a lot...I may even love him...but he's never going to return these feelings I have, huh? It's one of those hopeless cases...
You straightened your posture and watched as Eren kneeled as he was chained to a pole, he begun looking around nervously...you couldn't blame him though. The door opened and in came the man in charge of the Garrison, the Recon Corps, and the Military Police: Supreme Commander Darius Zackly.
"Now, let us begin. You are Eren Jeager, right?" he asked, "you're a soldier who vowed to devote his life to the King. Is thst correct?"
"Yes, sir."
"This is an exceptional case," he commented, "it is outside the bounds of common law, therefore we must convene a special court-martial. The final decision will be handed down by me. We will deliberate upon whether you live or die as well, do you have any objections?"
"None, sir."
"I'm glad you're so cooperative," complimented Darius, "let me say this straightforwardly. Concealing your existence has proven impossible, unless we publicize your existence in some way, we will have to face another threat besides the titans. This court is tasked with deciding which force will take custody of you, the Military Police or the Recon Corps."
"First, let us hear the proposition from the Police," he said.
"I am Nile Dawk, Chief of the Military Police," he began, "our proposition is as follows: We will examine Eren's body thoroughly, then dispose of him as soon as possible. It's a fact that his Titan power repelled the last attack, however, his character induces disturbances that may even lead to a rebellion. Therefore, he shall provide us with as much intelligence as possible, then he'll become a martyr for mankind."
Suddenly the man next to Nile spoke up, "That isn't necessary! He's a vermin that breached and infiltrated the sacred Walls of God. He should be killed here and now!"
"Priest Nick, quiet, please," Nile said.
"Next, let us hear the proposition from the Recon Corps."
"Yes, sir," Erwin said, "I am Colonel Erwin Smith, head of the Thirteenth Battalion of the Recon Corps. Our proposition is as follows: We will accept Eren as a formal member of the Recon Corps, and recapture Wall Maria using his Titan power. That is all."
"Is that it?" Darius questioned.
"Yes," Erwin answered, "using his abilities, we can retake Wall Maria. I believe the priorities are clearly apparent."
"I see. By the way, from where do you intend to launch that operation?" Darius asked, "Pixis, I believe the gate at Trost was sealed for good."
"Yeah. It'll probably never be opened again," Pixis answered.
Erwin immediately spoke up, "We would like to start from Calanes in the east. We will approach Shiganshina on a new route-"
"Wait! Shouldn't we seal all the gates now? The Colossal Titan can only destory the gates! If we fortify those areas, they won't be able to attack us again!"
"Shut up, you puppet of the traders' guild! Using that Titan's strength, we can return to Wall Maria once again!"
"We're fed up with up with you playing hero all the time!"
