"That's how she... Why would he do such a terrible thing?" Historia asked Eren.

He wouldn't know... Out of everyone, he'd definitely keep the truth from Eren.

Suddenly, Kenny walked in.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! What the hell are you guys blabbering about in here?" Kenny asked. I shot a glare at him.

I know I've changed, but that doesn't mean I've forgotten how the bastard shot me.

"I hope you know a bunch of shit is going on outside."

"Kenny? What happened?" Rod asked.

"The Scouts started a coup d'état and all the regiments changed sides. Everyone knows the King's a big fake, and all the big shots ended up being captured. Oh yeah, it's a royal shit show. Only a matter of time before they show up here. You oughta wrap it up lickety split." Kenny warned.

"Yes, all right. Take your anti-personnel control squad and defend the entrance. I believe I already told you that I need you and your crew to leave for the ceremony." Rod explained.

"Whoa, now, King. Did I make you mad? Why is (y/n) allowed here?" Kenny asked.

"Because she's making sure that if Eren did manage to transform, she'd take him down with her shifter abilities." Rod explained.

"Sorry bout that. I'm just so worried about you." Kenny replied, placing a hand on her hip.

"Kenny... I trust you. Go." Rod ordered.

"So do I, King." Kenny replied, shortly leaving.

Rod then turned his gaze towards me.

"(y/n), I have a feeling that things will be okay here. You go ahead with Kenny and stop any intruders." Rod ordered.

"Sure, but can I say one thing to my little brother before I leave?" I requested, stepping forward.

"As you wish." Rod and Historia stepped to the side. Eren turned his head to the side and narrowed his eye towards me. He had a look of fear in his eye.

I crouched down behind him and placed my hand on his head.

"Hey Eren. I know things may be bad, and I did feel a little sorry for you before. But now that I know that dad replaced me and my mother for you... pisses me off. I don't really like being replaced. So, I hope you make a good snack for Historia, alright?" I explained, standing up.

Eren let out a groan, as he was trying to say something, but couldn't due to the gag. I jumped straight down and used my 3DM Gear to slow my fall. I then ran out of the room towards the others.

Levi's P.O.V

We eventually made it to the location. Seemed to be underneath an abandoned chapel. I had Connie and Sasha go inside in advance to find the entrance to the hideout.

"Found it. Eren's gotta be in there with the enemy. Hopefully the layout in there is like I predicted." Hange mentioned, as she was squatting over a trap door.

"These presents better pay off, considering we went out of our way to prepare them." I mentioned, squatting down.

"All right. We're good to go." Armin said, as he finished preparing the weapons we'd use.

"Are we? Is everyone ready to get their hands dirty, too?" I asked everyone. They didn't reply but their faces said yes. "Guess so."

We went inside, and I kicked the door open to grab their attention. Armin kicked down the barrels and they rolled down the stairs.

We then ran out and Sasha readied her flaming arrows. She shot one barrel and it exploded creating a lot of dark smoke.

Third Person P.O.V

Levi shot up to distract the squad. Hange and the others shot smoke signals to create more of a smoky diversion.

"Shoot em!" One of the enemies shouted.

Levi counted the number of enemies he'd have to deal with.

"Thirty-five enemies! They're gathered behind the pillars! Continue the plan!" Levi called out.

The enemies readied their attack against the Scouts. Sasha set off another barrel creating more smoke.

Jean jumped out of the smoke and hit down two of the enemies. Connie was being shot out, but he used the smoke to his advantage and managed to strike down the attacker. Suddenly a woman aimed her gun towards him when he let his guard down. He didn't have time to act. She suddenly had an arrow shoot into her chest and Connie realised who did it.

"Sasha!" Connie blurted out.

"Connie! Hide in the smoke and fight!" Armin warned.

A man went to shoot at Hange when suddenly a boot met his face, knocking him down. Hange looked and saw it was (y/n).

"(y/n)!" She called out with relief. (y/n) narrowed her eyes towards her.

"What the hell are you doing, Yeager?!" Asked one of her comrades.

"If anyone's taking them down, it'll be me!!" (y/n) replied, as she pointed her guns toward Hange.

"If that's the case, shouldn't you transform?" Asked another.

"Nah, even if I wanted to, I can't in a place like this! The pillars would collapse, and you guys would be in serious trouble." She warned, as she began to chase Hange.

Hange suddenly shot up and stabbed the one next to Hange. Blood splattered on her face. (y/n) shot a bullet towards her but Hange deflected it with her sword, causing it to shatter. She quickly zipped away in the smoke.

Your P.O.V

I zipped past along the smoke and I heard some of my comrades panicking. From the corner of my eye I noticed Mikasa.

"Shit, of all the people to show up, she must be the craziest ones here... Obsessed with Eren, she'd kill to protect him..." I muttered, as I moved to keep my distance. But unfortunately, she saw me, and she began moving in my direction. Great...

Mikasa suddenly threw one of her swords in my direction and it struck me through the shoulder.

"Gugh!!" Mikasa then leaped forward and kicked me in the stomach, making me smack into one of the pillars. I quickly shot an anchor into the pillar to slow down my fall. Mikasa then kicked the blade deeper in my shoulder, causing my anchor to fall out and making me hit the ground with harder force.

Mikasa looked down at me and glared at me with murderous intent.

"Where is Eren?!" Mikasa asked, raising her voice. I smirked.

"Heh, how should I know that? Probably in Historia's belly." I teased. Suddenly, Mikasa slammed her boot in my face, bashing my head against the crystal pillar. She moved her leg back, seeing blood run down my nose and lips.

"Start talking, before I slice your throat!" Mikasa warned. I let out a laugh and wiped the blood off my nose with my arm.

"Tch, as if I'm scared of death. Go ahead and kill me if you want. It won't change Eren's fate." I answered, as a grin remained on my face.

"How could you say that about your own brother?! You're supposed to be family, right?!" Mikasa asked, as her eyes widened. Her worry for Eren was growing stronger by the second.

"Our family was doomed from the start. The Fritz, Yeager's, Ackerman's and even the Reiss family... Sooner or later, we'll die due to someone else's cruel intent." I retorted.

Mikasa continued to glare at me. I needed to find a way out of this. I looked past her shoulder and pretended to be shocked my something. Mikasa quickly looked back which gave me the opportunity to kick her in the shin. She winced in pain and I pulled the blade out of my shoulder. I rolled to the side and jumped to my feet. I jumped forward and elbowed Mikasa in the back of the head, causing her to fall for a moment. I shot my 3DM Gear and made my escape from her.
