Everyone got on their horses and wagons. Hange was laid down and her injury was seen to. I didn't have the courage to face her after what I did. I nearly killed her... I'll never forgive myself for doing that.
In the distance, we saw Erwin and the Scouts on horseback riding over.
"Erwin!" Levi called out.
"Everyone alright?" Erwin asked, riding his horse over to the wagon.
"Hange's our only casualty." Levi replied. Hange lifted her arm up and gave a small wave.
"Seems like nothing too serious. Well done, everyone." Erwin's gaze moved towards me and his eyes widened.
"(y/n)! You're back!" He pointed out. I quickly panicked and turned my body away. "Last I heard, you were dead. But I'm glad to see you're alright." Erwin added. I gave him a slight not without saying a word. Levi spoke up
"I've got a whole lot of stuff to report, but first..."
"What's that titan?" Erwin asked.
"Rod Reiss." Levi replied. Erwin let out a gasp. "I think we'll need your call on this, Commander." Levi mentioned.
Erwin looked over at Eren and Historia.
"Regardless, we don't have time to stand here and chat. Return to wall Sina." Erwin ordered, turning his horse around.
"You're going to let that big ass titan crawl right up to the wall? Levi questioned.
"To Orvud District, actually. That's most likely where it's headed." Erwin replied.
Erwin rode away, and we made our way to Orvud District. However, we wanted to do a little experiment with Eren's powers.
"Eren, do you think you can control that titan like you did the others?" I asked.
"I don't know, I can give it a shot." Eren replied, standing up. He faced Rod's titan and raised his fists.
"This should be good...." I mumbled.
"Stop, titan! Hey, stop! I'm talking to you! Can't you hear me, idiot?! Rod Reiss, that means you! You tiny old man!" Eren yelled, as he was throwing punches. Suddenly he stopped as soon as he realised what he just said. His face went into horror and I noticed Levi glancing at him.
"Nice knowing you, Eren..." I mumbled, trying to contain my laughter.
"It's not working." Mikasa pointed out. Eren sat back down in frustration, then instantly turning to me.
"(y/n)! You do it!!" Eren yelled.
"Huh?!" I let out a gasp from Eren's sudden statement.
"Yeah! Back when you tried to rescue me against Reiner, you let out a scream that kept a few titans away. You can control them somehow. Maybe you can try to stop Rod!" Eren explained.
"Eh?! I just made a few titans go away, that doesn't mean anything!" I blurted out.
"Come on! I clearly can't use any of the Founding titan's powers, but since the Reiss family is royal they can control it." Eren explained.
"Last time I checked, I wasn't a Reiss member." I pointed out.
"You still have royal blood!"
I let out a loud sigh and pinched the bridge of my nose.
"Fine, I'll give it a shot." I murmured. I quickly jumped onto the wagon and faced Rod's titan.
I took a deep breath. This isn't going to work.
"Stop right now!!!!" I screamed.
Suddenly, Rod's titan stopped moving. Everyone let out a gasp.
"I-It worked...!" I muttered, collapsing back down.
"See?! I told you!" Eren cheered, facing me.
"Yeah... But how can we take it down...? His body is emitting so much heat that the trees ten meters from him are setting fire. Neither you or me could defeat him..." I explained, as I was still gobsmacked with what I had just done.
"True, we need to think of an alternate plan." Eren replied.
"I'm sure Erwin will think of something." Levi interrupted. We both nodded our heads.
Rod's titan suddenly began to move again, which surprised us all.
"Stop moving!!" I yelled. This time I was ignored.
"Why isn't it working?" Historia wondered.
"Because I don't possess the Founding titan. You do. I assume royal blood does play a small part, but in order to control them completely, they need the Founding Titan's power." I explained.
"Basically, Rod Reiss was after the Founding titan. The titan power inside Eren. However, unless it's in someone with Royal blood, you won't get its true potential. Though, even if a Royal obtains the Founding titan's power, they're controlled by the first King's will, and will refuse to liberate humanity from the titans. Well, isn't that interesting... According to the first King, this is true peace? Now that's a weird way to look at it." Hange explained.
"In other words, we still have an option. If that titan eats me, Rod Reiss will return to human. Which means it's still possible to have a true Founding titan." Eren explained.
"You can't..." Mikasa seemed very against the idea.
"Seems that way. We could capture Rod Reiss once he becomes a human. Undo the First King's brainwashing. If we could do that, it'll open a pathway to save humanity. Plus, Eren... Are you saying you're fully prepared to let that happen?" Levi questioned. Eren turned to look at him.
"I am." Eren replied.
I lifted my leg up and smacked it down onto his head. He let out a grunt, as I folded my leg over again.
"Even if he does eat you, the plan has no chance of working. With just a scream, he'll brainwash nearly everyone's memories." I pointed out.
"Nearly everyone?" Hange wondered.
"Levi and Mikasa are immune to it, so they'll be the only ones to know." I replied. Everyone remained silent.
"(y/n)... You still want Historia to eat you?" Eren asked. I let out a gasp.
"What?" Levi spoke up.
