Fallen Crimson

Chapter Four

 Eren looked over in shock. Crimson was just laying there, motionless.

“Crimson!” Eren screamed while shaking her. She started screaming again as if she was dying and had lost consciousness from the pain. “Eren! You have to leave NOW!” Crimson yelled.

“Why?”

“Because the tracker just attacked me. It’s going to finish me off. I can try fighting it so you can get to safety, but it still could go after the both of us.”

“Please don’t make me leave! You could die!”

        “Eren. It doesn’t matter if I die! I’ll just be replaced by someone else. You’re a human, it doesn’t work like that for you. You’ll be gone forever.”

        “I don’t care if I die! It won’t be you even if you get replaced. It would be someone else!” Eren started crying. But at that moment, giant black wings protruded from Crimsons’ back. She grabbed Eren and flew from the ditch. “You’re an idiot, you know that!” Crimson screamed. “The tracker’s still on our tail. I’m taking you somewhere safe so I can be killed without you seeing.”

        “You’re the idiot if you think I’m letting you do this on your own!”

        

They were still close to the ground when Crimson suddenly stopped moving. Her wings had retracted back into her back. Now they were falling from about a 30 foot height. When they were close to the ground, Crimson grabbed ahold of Eren for two reasons, to protect him from the fall, and to say goodbye. She knew she was going to die, the tracker had already paralyzed her wings so she couldn’t escape. From her pocket she grabbed a handkerchief he had gotten her when they had first met and put it over his eyes. “Eren! This is it! Goodbye!” Eren was about to reply, but they hit the ground before he could. The impact created a crater in the ground about 2 ½ feet down.

Crimson climbed out unharmed to face the tracker. It was still there in plain sight. The red dot transformed into a warrior of sorts. It has short brown hair and red eyes. It wore a long robe that had several stitch marks in it. Though it didn’t speak, she felt like he was saying, “you’re about die”. She wasn’t scared. She would protect the ones she cared about at all costs, even if she had to give up her life. Eren was very important to her, she was his guardian angel. She had to protect him, no matter what, and that’s exactly what she would do. She stepped up to it. The tracker then said in a low, ominous voice, “you are going to die. I was sent by the O.O.A. to exterminate you. Get a weapon.”

“I don’t have one. We should fight one on one. No weap-” She was cut off by the tracker.

“I guess you plan to fail!” And with that being said, he grabbed a blade that was laced with angel poison.  and took the first hit. She jumped back but he had still hit her left arm. Blood sprayed and Crimson screamed. She had a very small chance of winning. She analyzed her opponent and realized that he had

several weapons from swords to guns. They all must be angel killing weapons since one of them

had injured her. “Ha. You think I’ll lose to you? Funny. I’m ten times stronger than you!” Crimson laughed. She shouldn’t have said that because he was very angry. “You shouldn't've said that, angel! I’m gonna kill you!”

“Crap!” She screamed. He started cutting her from all sides. With Crimson occupied, Eren had poked his head out of the crater. He was confused. Where had Crimson gone? How long was he out? Where was he? All of those questions filled his brain. He looked over to Crimson fighting, no, losing. It looks like she has given up.
