~I know what you're thinking: We get it! You're continuing from the last chapter! <3~

-Your POV (still <3)-

"I hope you know that you're out-numbered you freak" Cathryn spits at me and I stand up. I place my hand on my hip as I turn around to look at her.

'Cathryn is right, there are three on your left, two behind you, three on your right, and Cathryn's favorite hiding behind her inside the mess hall' The voice tells me and I spin my head around, now that the voice has mentioned it, I actually spot every single person hiding, as though my eyes were moving on their own accord... Scary.

I look back towards Cathryn and I notice that she has a smug look on her face.

"Do you understand now? You can't win. You may as well lie down and make it easier for us" Cathryn smirks while saying this and I involuntarily take a step backwards. I can feel my heart rate rising... what do I do? The sun will set in about seven minutes and then I wont be able to see my enemies.

'Stay calm, I will be your eyes and I will help you stand' I hear the voice say soothingly in my ear and I notice that my heart and mind have calmed down. I nod my head, confusing the Cadets that are surrounding me.

"Are you actually going to lie down?" I hear Cathryn say with a scoff and I snap my eyes to her, the metaphorical hole in my chest filling with rage. As if I would get on my knees for her. I may be weak but I'm not a lost puppy.

"N-no" My voice comes out as a whisper and I see Cathryn's grey eyes look back at mine sharply.

"What did you say, you weak bitch!?" Cathryn snaps and I can feel myself becoming enraged.

"I'm not weak!" and for once in my life my voice doesn't crack as I yell. Cathryn takes a step back in surprise and opens her mouth to say something.

"I'm a fighter!" My voice has become even more clear as I stare Cathryn down with my (e/c) eyes.

Cathryn hisses at me, her face scrunched up and menacing. She takes a step forward.

"Just give up! You're surrounded!" She snaps, expecting me to cower in fear. but I stand tall, I will not back down to a snake.

"I will not give up!" My voice echoes though the courtyard but I don't stop there. "Even if I s-stumble! Even if I fall!" I can feel my throat start to burn and my eyes sting as I shout.

"Even if nobody c-comes to help me! I will fight" By now other Cadets had heard my voice and were coming outside to see what had happened. I notice Keith in the corner of my eye but ignore him.

"I'm sick of hearing her talk!" Cathryn screeches and I smile slightly because Cathryn hasn't noticed Keith watching the interaction.

"Get her!" Cathryn screams, pointing her finger in my direction, which to be honest was not needed, everyone already knew she was talking about me.

'Will you allow me to protect you?' The voice in my head says and I nod my head, as soon as complete the nod I feel like I've been pulled away from my carriage and someone else has taken the reins.

I gasp in my head as I watch the scene unfold in front of my eyes in slow-motion. 'How is he going to do this? I've always been the worst at hand-to-hand combat...'  I find myself thinking as I watch my body start to run forward and twist.

'You don't need to worry, I have control' I hear the voice say in my head.

'Don't kill anyone! we already have titans for that' I hear my voice plead to the voice.

'As you wish' The voice whispers gently into my ear before time starts to speed up again.

I watch as my body gets in fighting stance and immediately knocks the three from the left unconscious. 'But... how?' Before I can think anything else my body swerves backwards and I stare as two knives come flying past my face. My body turns to look at the ones who threw the knives and it was the two that had been behind me.

I watch, dumbfounded as my body moves without my command. In less then two seconds, the voice had controlled my body to be standing next to the two terrified henchmen, and again in less then two seconds both of them are sprawled out on the ground holding their guts.

My body stands over them and I snap out of my trance as I realize that moving this fast must be taking a toll on my non-athletic body.

I grab the controls back. 'What are you doing?!' I hear the voice snap at me and I open my mouth.

"Wait!" My voice screams as I stare down at the two Cadets squirming on the ground.

'You don't have time for that!!Step to your left quickly!!' The voice yells at me and I side-step, but just a fraction too late as I something strong and painful collides with the side of my skull. I'm launched forwards and I collapse on the ground, my ears ringing.

 I groan and pull myself onto my elbows and take a look around at the Cadets watching, not helping me, just watching, as dumbfounded as I had been.

I hear commotion behind me and manage to turn my head to see what was going on.

"Oi, What the shit is going here brats?"

I inhale a sharp breath as my eyes lock with sharp, unwavering steel ones.

The cold man...
