Notes:

Hey guys! This is my first attempt at posting an old story I've been recently working on. I've had this idea in my head for awhile and have been dying to try it out. This takes place when Eren is first fighting the armored titan and it just diverges from there. This is also posted on Achieveofourown.net So here we go. (I don't have a beta so tell me if their are any mistakes.)

Sweat poured down the young titan shifter's temple as he pushed himself far past his own capabilities. His knees buckled from the exertion of the amount of force it took to lift up the armoured titan and drive him into the ground. Eren wrestled the armored titan harder into the ground, creating an even larger indentation onto the once smooth concrete. Reiner, sensing that he was going to lose began to struggled against Eren's hold more vehemently. Eren suspecting this grabbed hold of the Armoured's wrist and twisted them with enough force to break them. Reiner withered in pain and tried to buck the shifter off of him but Eren held tight. Reiner's strength began to diminish and eventually he stopped struggling entirely. Eren only released his grip when he saw the raising steam and felt the sudden heat from the evaporating body. He stood tall and proud as he witnessed the evil titan shifter's demise first hand. Not wanting Reiner to escape, Eren acted quickly and ripped the remaining body parts to pieces. He had two goals in mind. 1) to find Reiner before he could escape and 2) kill the titan shifter that betrayed his trust and was the reason as to why millions of innocent lives were slaughtered. Eren's mind was hazy as he found the tall teen's slightly scorched body lying under the remaining tissue and bone matter, unconscious but still alive.

"Eren stop" Armin screamed in a frenzied panic, before swinging his way onto Eren's shoulders and gripping the black locks brushing against him tightly. "Don't lose yourself Eren, we need Reiner alive."

The shifter acknowledged Armin's presence by swatting out a hand intending to knock out the little blond from his shoulder. Armin sensing the change in mood catapulted to the nearest decimated building, as well as grabbing the small gun from his holster and shooting the flare in the air. The red glare that filled the otherwise beautiful sky with a foretold warning.

Eren was too far gone.

Eren felt nothing but the insistent urge to feast upon the human lying in the palm of his hand. He brought his hand up closer to his mouth, his warm breath protruding and creating a small pocket of warm air. Before he knew it the human was already inside his mouth, ready to slide down into his stomach when he heard a voice. At first the shifter felt disoriented, the glaze in his eyes clearing and his mind refocusing as he placed a face with that voice. Corporal Levi. He realized with a start that he had Reiner inside his mouth. The young teen practically drowning in the saliva he was desecrating.

"You can't even follow simple orders you idiot." Levi tsked in annoyance and brought out his blades. "I'm only gonna ask you once Eren. Are you gonna let Reiner go or will I have to cut him out of your mouth?" The unspoken threat lingered in the air, sending cold shivers down the teen's back. Eren could feel the anger radiating off Levi and thought better of disobeying him and spit Reiner out onto the building Armin was resting at. He could feel the disgust coiling around in the pit of his gut at the thought of almost eating another human. How was he no better than the monsters he was trying to kill? He couldn't even control himself enough to not eat Reiner. Before Eren's thoughts turned to an even darker route Levi interjected.

"Hey brat! Are you gonna come out or will I have to cut you out myself." Levi watched for any sort of acknowledgement to his question. When he received none he took it as an OK to take him out. Eren was too far gone if the vacant expression the titan was currently showing was any indication.

All at once Eren felt the searing pain of being ripped open, flesh once fused with the titan body ripping off. His body felt hot, to hot and Eren cried out in pain before pacing out entirely. Corporal Levi took notice that this was the worse one yet. He stood, cradling Eren in his arms and tried to stifle the sudden urge to look away from the young boy. Eren was lying unconscious with half of his face seared off, blood dripping down from the open wounds and fragments of bones peeking threw the marred flesh. The steam that usually followed after Eren's departure from his titan body was not happening. The sight was ungodly but Levi kept a straight face and fired the flare that would indicate that the mission had ended.
