Levi raised his swords as he catapulted himself into the air, aiming for the Titan's eyes to blind it. Suddenly the Titan lifted its arm and swatted him aside, as if he were a fly.
Darkness clouded his vision.
The sounds of war around him slowly began to diminish, until they were merely a hum.
And then, silence.
Levi slowly opened his eyes. It took a few seconds for his vision to adjust. He was staring at the sky. However, his vision was still slightly blurry. That was because... was he... moving?
Slowly, Levi raised his head painfully. He was on horseback.
His memory was blank. The last thing he could remember was... Sakura!
She saved him!
But... does that mean... that she's still out there?!
He had to go back. Now.
Levi tried to move, but as soon as he did, a searing headache hit him. Suddenly, his vision clouded, and everything went black.
"S-Sak-kura...", he mumbled.

"Erwin! Look! One of our horses is coming back!", yelled Hanji, who was looking down from her position on the wall. Levi and Sakura were still missing, and their deaths have not been confirmed by any of the soldiers. So Erwin decided to wait. "If they're alive, they'll find their way back.", he had said.
"Wait is that... Erwin! That's Levi! He's passed out on the horse's back! Open the gate!", shrieked Hanji.
Hanji rushed to the gate where Erwin was waiting. The gate opened and in came Levi, passed out on the back of a horse.
"That's... That's Corporal Sakura's horse.", declared Erwin, devastated.
"Erwin, listen!", exclaimed Hanji. "He's saying something!"
"S-Sa..", muttered Levi.
"What?!", said Erwin, "What did he just say?"
"Sa-k... Sak-ura...", uttered Levi.
"Sakura! He's saying Sakura!"
