Here is a sneak preview of my new story Calling Your Heroes;

" Sir! Three Titans approaching from the East. " A young voice rang out. 'Sir', otherwise known as Section Commander Marcel Abendroth, turned his head; spotting three Titans running- or rather flailing - towards them. He turned to the two cadets behind him and barked out an order,

" Edena, Bubby you take the two three meters. I'll take the big one. " The cadets nodded in affirmative.

" Yes, Sir! " They shouted out in unison. Marcel then steered his horse, Jan, so that he was facing the titans head on; like little dogs, the cadets followed. Edena was the first one to attack, slinking her way in between the giant hands skillfully as she flew up to the Titan's nape. The blades sliced through the skin like a knife through butter. Then the great Titan fell onto the grassy floor beneath its feet.

" Nice one Ed! " Bubby shouted from her horse. Edena smiled before coming to land on the now steaming back of the Titan. Bubby then grappled onto the other Titan's nape and allowed herself to fly off the horse. Meanwhile, Marcel was currently trying to deflect the flailing arms of the fifteen-meter Titan.

" Work with me here. " Marcel mumbled to himself rather than the Titan. He then grappled onto one of the hands, slicing a few strips of flesh off before the hand fell.

" That's better. " He then grappled onto the nape; slicing the body part in mere seconds. With a sigh of relief, he came to stand next Edena and a now blood covered Bubby.

" What did you do? Skin it? " Marcel quipped. Bubby just laughed sarcastically before hopping onto her horse.

" Funny. Well I'm hungry and I think the expedition is a success due to that flare, " She pointed to a yellow line of smoke. " So let's go back. "

A few hours later the entire scout regiment, minus a few people, was crowded around tables that littered the hall. Despite the commotion of the hall one voice could be heard clearly.

" FOOD! Oh, my sweet love, I thought I'd never see you again! " The voice of a cadet by the name of Fredrik Baer rang out. Said cadet was holding a piece of bread by his cheek, whispering to it softly. His friends were unfazed by his queer actions as they were used to it after the three years of training they'd spent together.

" So Lukey, how did you do with the 'spooky monsters'? " Fredrik giggled at his friend, Lukaz Bros, and wiggled his fingers in the air. Lukaz flung a bit of rice at his face before replying.

" One, don't call me that- " He was interrupted by Fredrick.

" What Lukey? " Lukas sighed and rubbed his tired eyes.

" Yes, that. Two, you said you would never mention that and three, I did fine thanks. " A loud snigger could be heard.

" What's this 'spooky monsters' thing? " Edena piped up, stifling a laugh. Lukaz groaned before placing his head in his hands.

" Well, Ed in our first year of training, Lukey- "

" STOP CALLING ME THAT! "

" Alright fine, Lukaz woke me up in the middle of the night then sat on the bed and whispered; 'Please, protect me from the spooky monsters.' "
