Attack on Titan: Reclamation

Revelation

Wow, beyond lazy, no music still

Annie slowly opened her eyes. It took her vision a while to focus.

She was in a hospital bed, but no one was around. Sunshine was coming from a slightly opened window nearby, giving the place a heartwarming aura. White, thin petals danced around in the gentle breeze.

What happened? Annie thought, Where is everyone?

Suddenly, a Titan arm burst through the floor, and it was an unsettlingly familiar Titan arm. It was her Titan's arm. It jerked back down, bringing the floor with it. Annie fell downwards into a precipice of arms and hands grabbing and lashing at her. Their gnarly, grey nails scratched at her as she hit their sickly, mottled skin. She raised her arms to protect her face. She shut her eyes in fear.

She suddenly hit the ground with a sickening thud. Pain shot up her back. She opened her eyes. She saw humans running around in panicked frenzies. Soldiers were dashing everywhere, trying to stay calm. Everyone began to scream and point up. Annie slowly turned as a gigantic shadow was cast over her.

A massive Titan hand, just the hand alone being larger than the Colossal Titan, emerged from the steam and cloud screen. Red hot lava dripped from it; some of it landing near Annie. The hand itself landed a good distance away, and it began to drag it's fingers across the open field, picking up any humans unfortunate enough to be in it's path.

A blonde girl screamed near Annie. The Russian bolted over to the child and shielded the girl from flying debris as the hand rapidly passed over, the two lucky enough to slip through the gaps of it's fingers.

The concealed, massive Titan raised it's hand and dropped what poor souls to their doom. The smokescreen cleared slightly to the point Annie could tell the gender. It was female, but it wasn't her own Titan. It was someone else's, but the Russian couldn't see the face.

Lightning boomed behind the woman and little girl, whom Annie was still shielding. She jerked her head to see.

There was another massive Titan, male this time. It had glowing, golden eyes and it's muscles were scarlet red. It let out a bloodcurdling roar before attacking the massive female Titan. The punches were loud like explosions, and the blood drops scorching to the touch and falling in gigantic globs.

Then, everything just went dark. Annie looked down at the girl she was protecting.

She was dead, but her hair was covering her face. Annie very slowly swept the bangs to the side.

The girl was Annie, and the blood was everywhere.

Annie jumped back in fear.

"No, nonononono," she said, holding her head, "Wake up, Annie, wake up."

"Wake up, Annie!" Armin shouted.

Her eyes snapped open to see the Englishman leaning over her. She was in a medical bed. Eren, Mikasa, and Hanji were around her as well. Annie's eyes drooped slightly, still drowsy from her slumber.

"Keep her awake," Hanji said, grabbing a flashlight and shining it in one of the Russian's eyes and then the next, "Pupils appear to be dilating normally. Can you speak, Annie?"

"Eren's a psychopath," she replied, weakly.

"That he is," Hanji responded, backing off with a smile on her face.

"How am I friends with you assholes?" Eren muttered quietly.

"Annie, are you okay?" Armin asked her, helping her sit up.

"Yeah, but..." she answered, stopping for a second, "I had this really weird dream."

"How so?" Klaus questioned, appearing out of nowhere, which caused everyone to jump.

"Well," she started, "there was this massive Titan that was killing everyone, but there isn't one that could be that tall."

"How tall are we talking about?" Klaus pressed.

"I don't know," Annie replied, "maybe two-hundred to two-hundred fifty meters. I don't know, I didn't have anything to reference for scale."

"That can't be," Klaus whispered to himself.

"That's what I thought," Annie said, "A Titan that big can't exist."

"No, they do exist," the eldest continued, "They're called Grand Titans, said to be impossibly tall and unbelievably powerful. However, this one's shorter than the others. Normally, they range around three-hundred meters tall."

"Okay, that's it," Eren blurted out, "how the hell do you know all this crap? How is it you know more about Titans than Hanji and everyone else in your Assault Regiment?"

"You really want to know?" Klaus responded, "Fine."

"Long before any of us were even a thought, humanity thrived and significantly suffered on the land," Klaus started, "And they prayed to a god of creation to protect them. The god did so, producing the first ever Titans. Originally made to help the humans, they also fought in wars to save lives. Some time later, this god of creation granted a shrine where it was said to grant humans the ability to naturally assume the form of a Titan, and thus forth, Titan Shifters were born, formally called Superior Titans. The shrine only chose the worthy, until one day a vile man broke the shrine and consumed it's power, in which he himself could grant the Titan power at will. He gave this power to cannibals, knowing the flesh of the Superior Titans was still human skin and blood. The Superior Titans were devoured within days, and then decades later, the man-eating Titans you know today moved onto the humans."

Klaus paused for a second before continuing, "Until recently, a shard of the shrine was found and only had enough power to grant the Titan ability to one person."

"I am the last living Superior Titan, and it is my sworn duty to cleanse the Titan name," he finished, "There. You happy?"

"You're living history," Armin deducted.

"And a great test subject," Hanji added, getting closer to him with an insane look in her eyes.

Eren grabbed her face and threw her to the ground without moving. She landed with thud.

"Keep it in your pants, Hanji," he said.

"It's just for science!" she exclaimed, still smiling at the thought.

"This is like sex to you, isn't it?" Klaus mused.
