You go right. Your heart is thrashing in its cage and you can hear your breathing gain speed. You dodge between ruined houses and flaming walls. Just beyond the clashing sounds you can hear talking and yelling; the boat. You push forward even faster, throwing your body ahead of you to reach the port. You're almost there, you can hear it.

You can see the people ahead but you trip on debris that were thrown into the middle of the street and fall onto your knees, piercing your skin further. Your right leg, from toe to knee was skinned and cut.

"Fuck." You cry.

A Titan emerges a couple hundred feet in front of you, delighted and grinning. He's not the tallest, but you have nothing to fight back with. You cry and bawl, desperately grasping out for any scrap metal on the street to end it all quickly. You can see the port, see the boat and the clash of colors that are the mix of people. You were almost there.

The Titan stops, slowly falling forward, dead in just a split second. The man with black hair maneuvers over to you, pulling you up from your armpits and wrapping your arms around his shoulders. He's much smaller than how you saw him earlier but his shoulders are still broad beneath your arms. He flies back to the boat, your eyes gently closing to a soft sleep.
