Live On!(Attack on titan fanfic)

CH7: Survivors part 2

"You're not serious are you?" Armin asked us. "I've never been serious enough!" Eren said standing up and facing Armin.

"I'm not one of those people that only act tough when they are protected by the walls," Eren said.

"I don't need this crap," he said and threw the bread roll at Armin.

"Doesn't it piss you off?" He continued. "That we can't do anything against the titans because we live off of such pity!!"

"It's impossible! Nothing can defeat them!" Armin said. " The only thing we can do is live inside these walls! For now!"

"If you do anything rash you will end up like my parents!"

"So that's why you suck up to those people! Do you have no shame?"

"That's all we can do right now!"

"That's just an excuse! Just continue to live as live stock, you weak piece of shit!"

Mikasa immediately punched Eren, he fell to the ground.

"If Armin is weak, then so are you and I," Mikasa said. "We couldn't even escape the titans by our selves, the food we eat is made by someone else as well, there's absolutely no chance we can take down one Titan." Mikasa continued. "What's important is staying alive, just like your mother said,"

Mikasa took the bread from Armin and shoved it in Erens mouth. "Eat and stay alive," she said.

A few days later, the refugees were all sent to cultivate land and secure food. But that couldn't prevent the food shortage.

In the following year of 846, the central government launched a campaign to retake wall Maria using the refugees. There were 250,000 of them. Almost a fifth of the population. But only a hundred survived. With their sacrifice, the food shortage improved, albeit little, for those who survived.

"Armin, I'm applying for the military training next year." I said as Armin sat there gripping and sobbing at his grandfathers hat.

"I'll be strong enough to fight them...... "I said.

Armin looked at the ground then raised his head in determination. "Me too, I'll join the military training well," he said.

"I'll join too," Mikasa said. I looked at her in shock. "Mikasa you don't have to, you said that survival was the most important thing," I said.

"Yes, and I will be there to ensure your safety," she said.

I grew weary of the government after what happened with the refugees.
That plan was an utter disgrace and so many people sacrificed them selves. I leant back onto a wall and sat down.

Deep thinking time occurred in my mind and I slowly drowned out the sound from outside, my ears buzzed and I could hear my slow breaths.

I sighed and closed my eyes. The world world has gone to pieces, it's hard to believe we are still surviving, only time will tell of our fates.
With that happy note I got up and decided to go derp.
