The Hell of Titans.... What Did I Do To Deserve this? [SnK/AoT Fanfic]

Chapter 62

*First person pov*

     I limp over to the hole that Annie recently stomped on. Mikasa was keeping Annie busy, so I didn't need to worry abouther. Armin already beated me to the hole, so he should be already there trying to help Eren. I finally limped to the hole, seeing Armin is trying to shove some rubble off of Eren. "Open... Your eyes!" Armin shouts at Eren as he grunts to shove the wall off. "Armin!" I called to him, and he turned his head. "Basil! W-We thought you were dead!" Armin shouts, and I slid into the hole, but I lost my footing and I face planted into the ground. "Ow!" I said as held my leg, since I accidentally tried to stop my fall with my bad leg. "Basil!" Armin cried as he put the wall back into place and ran to my side. "Ghh... I'm fine... get Eren out of there." I said as I clutched my leg. Armin ran to get Eren out of there, going back to the same wall that was on Eren. "Basil... What happened... there! I thought... you caught Annie... with your commands!" Armin said, grunting in between every few words. "I read about this in a book... It's called superconscious. It's where you cut off one or more of your senses completely for a period of time... I don't know how long it lasts since it was so long ago since I read this..." I said as I leaned up against the hole. "How... is that... Possible!" Armin yelled as he finally shoved the rubble off of Eren, pausing in between to grunt. "Eren!" Armin yelled as he tried to wake him up. He was impaled by a piece of wood, and I winced at it. It looks painful. "Hey!" I heard 3DMG zipping by us and landing by us. It was Jean, yelling about stuff. "What're you doing!?" Jean yelled, then he finally noticed me. "Basil! Oh my god! What happened to you!? Was it that bitch!? I swear, I'll kill her for killing Marco and harming you!" Jean yelled as I held my hand. "I'm fine, but look at Eren! He's fucking impaled for crying out loud! Get that bastard out of there!" I screeched in Jean's face, and he covers his ears because I may or may not have made his ears bleed. He had a look of confusion on his face and he stood up. "Jean! Eren's buried under here!" Armin informed Jean. "What!? Wasn't the plan for him to turn into a titan!? And Basil, why aren't you controlling Annie!?" Jean yelled, confused out of his mind. "Eren couldn't do it. The fact that the Female Titan was Annie probably held him back. As for Basil, Annie cut off her sense of hearing off completely so she can't control Annie. "What!?" Jean yelled again. "Anyway, we have to dig him out!" Armin said, grunting as he pulled another piece of rubble off of Eren. "Jean! Give me a hand!" Armin yelled, but Jean was still taking in the information. "He couldn't do it?" Jean's facial expression turned from confusion to anger. He kneeled down to Eren's level. "Eren! You've got to be kidding! I told you once that we'd have to rely on you, remember!? We were going to put the world, humankind, and my own life in your hands! Is this what we get in return!? Marco... Marco's... Dammit!" Jean yelled, breaking down at the end. All of a sudden, a huge boulder hits a building, chunks of debris falling on us. "Basil!" Jean yelled, grabbing me, diving out of the way of the debris hovering over me protectively. Grunts of pain resonated from the three of us. "Ow!" I cried, since I landed on my ribs which did not feel good, but it was better than being crushed to death by a boulder... which would be a lame way to die. Jean stood up, pulling me up and grabbing my stick I leaned on. "There's no time... We have to do something about her first!" Jean announced, pulling out his blades. He turned to me, putting a hand on my shoulder. "Listen to me, Basil. I need you to get somewhere safe, you can't fight like this." Jean said, holding my shoulder. "But I-" "I have a plan." Armin announced, making us turn our heads toward him. "We use Basil as bait to lure Annie to the cannons to capture her, remember? I'll be carrying Basil for this job, since Annie is after me too because my intelligence is a threat to her." Armin explained, and Jean's expression turns to anger. "Don't joke with me! Basil is injured, she can't even walk on her own without some form of support! She needs to sit this one out." Jean argued, and Annie keeps raging on. "Jean! I'm fine, I can do this. Please... trust me Jean." I said reaching out to him. He just stays silent, then scowls. "Whatever, just don't die on me idiot." Jean said, then flew off to fight Annie. Armin turned back to Eren. "Eren... I once told Jean... a person who can't give up anything, can change nothing. To endure becoming a monster, you have to be willing to discard your own humanity. Annie definitely is able to do that. I don't know what her reasons are... but the one who is able to do that wins!" Armin said to Eren, and I could see Eren's eye crack open. Armin crouched down, his arms out behind him. "Basil! Get on, we don't have that much time!" Armin said, and I got on his back. I take one last look at Eren, into his open eye. "I hope you make the right choice... Eren." I said, then Armin starts running with me on his back towards Annie. "ANNIE!!" Armin yelled, getting Annie's attention. "Unless you kill me this time, saying your gamble starts here will be full of crap!!" Armin shouts, taking Annie's attention. I see Jean come up behind Annie when she wasn't paying attention and tried to slice her neck open with a cry. She covers her neck with her hand, and crystallizes her hand to keep Jean from cutting through. Jean's blades break, then flew away from Annie. "ARMIN!! THIS WAY!!" Jean yelled, then Armin takes off, but not as fast a regular 3DMG should go. "ROGER!!" Armin shouts in response as he ran past Annie's legs, scaring me because I thought she was going to just easily step on us because she could. Annie starts running after us as we fly. Armin's 3DMG movements were slow... very slow. Shoot... I'm weighing him down and it's hard to balance the weight out with me on his back. I could see Annie catch up slowly. "Armin! Annie's catching up! Leave me, or we both die!!" I yelled as I watched Annie get closer. We fly past two buildings, and I look to my left and right to see my fellow Scouts with canons. Good... we're just in time. Annie runs in between the buildings, noticing all the Scouts but it was too late to reel back. They all fire the wires, and she tries one final time to grab us before she gets constricted by the wires. I swear, she nearly touched a hair on me. Annie pulls on the wires, trying to get free but it just ends up making her lose balance and falling over. The Scouts on the roof through a net over her, and it had spikes all over it. Armin lands on the ground, and I marvel at the work done. The wires all looked like spider webs constricting a prey... it was cool. "Hey! Basil's injured, someone help her!" Armin yelled, going over to the Survey Corps members. "We'll patch her up properly, hand her over to me." A woman said, and Armin sets me down on the ground and I limp over to her almost. I almost fell, but she caught me. "Alright, let's go over here, quickly." The woman said, leading me over to some crates with medical supplies on top of it, so I assume it was some kind of make shift medical tent or something. "Alright, tell me what hurts." She told me, as she got some supplies. "Uh... Let's see... My ribs hurt really, really bad so I assumed they were broken... I had a dislocated wrist but I snapped that into place.... A piece of debris wood pierced my leg but I patched it up with some cloth... my head was cut open but I patched that up with cloth as well... I have some other cuts and bruises but those don't really matter.... I also feel a little dizzy but it's something I could live with for the time being." I said, listing off everything that comes to mind. "Alright, pull up your shirt so I can touch your ribs." She said, and I did so. She touched here and there, and I hissed in pain when she hits those special spots. "Hm... It seems like it is broken. You'll have to get a surgery later after this mission... if there is a later. But, you surprisingly look good and nothing else looks broken. You also may have a concussion... I don't know. Let's just get you properly bandaged up." She said, pulling out some bottles and bandages. She opened the bottle then took off the bandage that was covering my leg. "Sorry, but this is going to hurt like a bitch." She said, then pouring the liquid on my leg without a warning. I screeched in pain as it went into my open wound, sizzling sounds coming from the wound. Tears spring to my eyes as I held the wound, but she pinned my arms back to the crates. "Don't touch it, I told you it'll hurt like a bitch." She said as I sniffled. She wrapped my wound in proper bandages. "It'll need stitches, but we don't have the time for that. Now, your head." She said, and I unwrapped the bandage. She poured the same liquid onto some cloth and started dabbing my head, causing me to hiss every time her hand came into contact. "There. Your head needs stitches too, but like I said, there isn't time." She said as she wrapped my head in new bandages as she tossed the cloth. "It's too bad... those wounds are going to leave some scars... but at least they aren't going to be that bad. Besides, if you're concerned by that scar on your head at least your bangs cover up the scar." She said as she helped me off of the crate. "Thank you." I thanked as I leaned against her. "Don't mention it... I do this all the time. Now, I have some crutches over here that might fit your size." She said as she grabbed a crutch. "...Or not. It's a little too tall, but it'll do." She said handing it to me. I slipped it under my armpit as I leaned on it, relieving all the weight from my bad foot. "I-" A loud explosion came from the direction of where Annie was trapped, and I see Annie running away from here.
