Levi was slicing down members of Kenny's squad, like swatting flies out of the air.

I noticed the second in command of the squad and I quickly zipped over to her.

"(y/n)! Oh shit, what happened to you?" She asked, seeing all blood.

"Nothing serious. It'll heal. How many have we lost?" I asked, as we hid behind one of the pillars.

"Not too sure. A few. That damn Levi guy is behind it." Traute explained, as she peeked around the corner.

For some reason my heart felt strange from the mention of his name. I gripped my head and looked down. Dammit. Why am I feeling like this?

"We should focus on taking him down." Traute mentioned.

"It won't work. We wouldn't have a chance against him. He's strong in more ways than one. Killing him is almost impossible. We should leave it to Kenny." I explained.

"What makes you so sure?" Traute wondered, looking at me.

"Because the old me knew him on a personal level. I don't remember it all, but just looking at him tells me I know him too well." I replied.

"I see."

Suddenly we hear Kenny coming over, shooting towards Levi.

"Speak of the devil." I murmured.

"He can handle this, let's focus on taking out the others." Traute advised. I nodded, and we zipped away.

Suddenly, Mikasa appeared and tried to slice at Traute. She dodged, and I moved and kicked her in the side.

"Watch out for her!" I warned.

We kept moving, when suddenly Hange came out of nowhere.

"Great, another nuisance...!" Traute cursed.

"Take her out!" I shouted. Traute shot at her but missed.

"Huh? Both your shots were way off!" Hange mocked.

I looked over at Traute and she nodded. We grabbed hands and spun around. I threw her over towards Hange. Traute shot her anchor at Hange, shooting into her shoulder. I grabbed Traute's hand we both swung Hange towards the pillar, making her smack straight into it.

The others saw this and called out her name.

"Now! Fall back to the final defensive post! Time to regroup" Traute ordered. We nodded and made our way back towards Rod.

We made it through the last entrance.

"Drop it!" Traute ordered. A net was dropped so the others couldn't pass through.

"You sure it'll stop them?" I asked.

"It's temporary. Just until we can replenish. Hopefully the ceremony will be done before then." Traute replied.

Kenny zipped past.

"We have to guard the ritual!" Traute shouted out.

"Yeah, that's where I'll be! (y/n)! Come with me!" Kenny ordered.

"Yes sir!" I replied. I still hate his guts, but now isn't the time to be crying over spilt milk.

We zipped over to the ritual and we saw Rod and Historia in the same place as before. Eren was still alive and he was squirming and screaming.

"What are you doing here?" Rod asked.

Kenny and I landed on the ground.

"So, unless it's a Reiss that eats Eren, they can't become a true King?" Kenny question.

"That is correct." Rod replied.

Kenny had a twisted expression on his face that had me wondering what the hell was wrong with him.

"T-Then even if I turn into a titan and eat Eren, it'll mean nothin'?" Kenny asked.

"What are you-" Before Rod could say another word, Kenny grabbed him by the collar and raised him up, pointing a pistol at his face.

"Father!" Historia cried out.

I stepped in front of her to block her. She gave me a glare.

"Why are you doing this, (y/n)?!" Historia asked, with anger in her voice. I didn't bother to answer; meaningless question.

"Do you think I'm lying to you or something?" Rod asked, in a panicked state.

"Nope. I waited long for this day cuz I knew you weren't lying about the succession ritual. For crying out loud! You used me this whole time knowing full well what I was after, you sleezy playboy!" Kenny was pissed, and he made it clear that he was. Normally he enjoyed toying with people, but this is different.

"I'm grateful for you. You may have been a stray dog that my whimsical younger brother took in, but-"

"Keep on insulting Uri, and you can say goodbye to half of your head!" Kenny warned.

Who the hell is Uri? A previous founding titan I assume. But, why is Kenny mad that he was insulted just now?

Suddenly, Historia shoved past me and shoved the gun away from Rod's face.

"Stop it!" She shouted. She wrapped her arms around the gun to resist Kenny from shooting. "Let my father go!" Historia demanded.

"Huh? You're plain pitiful, Historia. Don't you get it?!" Kenny shoved her off, and I quickly caught her before she hit the ground.

"Jeez, go easy on her, will ya?" I pointed out, helping her stand.

"That father of yours wants to turn you into a monster and make you eat Eren." Kenny pointed out, as he pointed towards Eren, who was still in a state of shock.

Historia stepped forward with a glare.

"Because, that's my duty!" She yelled out. Kenny and I were both surprised by her statement. "Yes... I'm going to eat Eren and bring my sister back! I'll inherit the world's history and exterminate every last titan!"
