"(Y/n)!! Mikasa!!", Armin's screams. I feel his arms wrap around my torso as he pulls me to the top of a nearby building. Shortly after, Connie lands next to us, holding Mikasa. However, it isn't long before the two of us shake free and peer over the rooftop at the Titan that had just saved our lives. A 15 metre tall beast with medium length brown hair and... green eyes. 

"(Y/n), are you crazy? You just get back and you lead us all into a battle we can't win. You're really something, you know that?". Connie can't help but yell at me, but I get where he's coming from.

"Either way, I suppose your little speech worked, or I wouldn't be here.". He grudgingly confesses. "By the way, what's up with that Titan?"

"I'm sorry Connie. I guess it was a little far-fetched, wasn't it?". I chuckle while wiping the blood from my cheek. "And if I'm being honest, I don't know, I just know that it saved me and Mika."

Connie looks at me blankly for a minute. "Now you've really lost it, you must have hit your head way too hard."

"Enough about that, let's change Mikasa's gear so you can continue." Armin seems a little out of it to me. I can't tell what it is but his voice... it sounds empty.

After we change Mika's gas with Armin's, he hands her his swords.

"You need them more than I do". He looks down at the small blade left in his hand. "You can just leave me with this one, it's better than getting eaten alive anywa-".

I kick the blade out of his hands with anger and fear, before grabbing his shoulders firmly. 

"Look here Armin, I'm not losing you too, and there is no way I'm leaving you behind."

"(Y/n)..."

We are all cut off by the roar of the Titan. We watch as it initiates in combat with another 15 metre Titan. A swift punch to the skull sends the Titan's head flying over ours and into the bell of the church, ringing it as it hits it.

"Yep, we need to go", Connie concludes. "Armin I'll carry you".

"No yo-", I cut Armin off once again with a stern look. Connie grabs Armin's wrist and the four of us begin to run to the edge of the building.

"Wait!". Armin's scream alarms you and you all stop to face him. "I have a plan".

"A pan?", Connie tilts his head in confusion. 

"Well, you guys will have to do it... So it's your decision... And I know it's crazy but... Could we use that Titan?". 

We stare at him in shock. Did he just suggest using a Titan on our side? 

"It attacks other Titans and isn't interested in us. Could we lead it to the supply area somehow?". 

"Lead that thing!?", Connie exclaims. His question is completely rational, and maybe I did hit my head too hard but, I think Armin is on to something.

"I think it's fighting instinctively if we remove the Titans around it, it might head to the supply area. Then it can start killing the Titans there. It can save everyone'slives".

Silence.

"Its worth a try", I turn to face Mika, who hasn't spoken much until now. I can tell Connie disagrees from the unsatisfied scream he sends at her. "Better to try something than wait around for death."

I decide to wear my usual smirk, "let's go with Armin's plan".

We turn to Connie and wait for his answer. "Fight Titans with other Titans? Yeah... They'll laugh at us if we fail you know". 

"But if we succeed, everyone survives, so let's get ready.", I speak like a Captain for the first time since taking the job. Connie just stands there as me, Mika, and Armin run off and leave him behind.


"Fine... Fine!"
