Maniac (Ereri/Riren fanfiction) [Hiatus Indefinitely]

Chapter 3

He had piercing steel grey eyes, with a bluish gray tint. They were mean, and sharp, but held so much deep emotion, that he most likely masked behind this douchey facade.

He was very fit, and clean. He also smelt really nice. But don't get me wrong. I hate him. He's just really...hot.

He was also really short. Like really short. This'll be fun.

The man smirked at my retort and my eyes widened. Maybe he isn't so bad after all.

"So, Jaeger, Eren. Why don't you talk?"

I said nothing.

"Ah, so the cold shoulder now?" Again, nothing.

He glared at me and shifted in his spot against the wall. I pulled up my knees to my chest and faced the corner, ignoring him.

He didn't say anything, nor did he move. I couldn't hear footsteps, but I could feel his gaze burn into my back. Suddenly a weight on my shoulder cussed me to jump, but when I turned around it wasn't the man. Instead it was my kidnapper. I gasped. No not now...please.

"Eren?"

"Hello little boy. You live here?" I nodded.

"Yeah! My momma, my papa, and I. We all live here. My papa is a doctor." He grinned.

"Oh, that's nice. Can you take me to him? I need a doctor." Of course as a young boy, I agreed. A man who needed a doctor made me believe my dad could be famous. So I bragged him off every chance I got.

I lead the man to my house and walked in.

"Momma, Papa! I have a sick guy who needs papa." There was a sickening crack and suddenly I went down, a crimson fluid staining the floor.

I heard a laugh, and footsteps come from the kitchen.

"Eren? E-Eren!" It was my mother. She must of been the only one home. There's was no one.

"M-mom..." She emit a low sob and pointed a dagger at the man.

"You stay away from him! What do you want?!" She cried, her frail body shaking.

"You and your son, of course. You're quite the looker there, ya know? How about I take you to my place, and we can have some fun." He laughed and put on a sickening grin.

"Never! Leave us alone." She seethed, taking a step forward.

"I'm...s-sorry momma..." I croaked, reaching out for her. She looked at me, sadness plastered on her face, subsiding with worry and guilt.

"It's not your fault baby, okay?" She snapped her attention back to the perp, and ran toward him.

"Eren get up and run! Die you bastard!" Suddenly a loud bang resonated through my ear, and I struggled to get up. From within my peripheral vision I saw my mother's body fall to the floor. My eyes widened and tears spilt from the corners of my eyes.

"Mom!" I screamed after her, adrenaline pumping, head throbbing, and the feeling of crusty blood rested on my head. I felt dizzy, but I tried to run away nonetheless.

There on the floor, my blood now mixing with her own, was my mother's limp body. The man looked up, with an evil smirk, and stepped over her body, advancing towards me.

"Oops." My face contorted into one with anger, and I screamed. I backed away, yelling things at him, and my long gone mother.

"S-stay away!! G-get away!! M-mom!! Moooom!" I sobbed, and looked around wildly, searching for a way out. In vain.
