Arrow Through The Heart: (Attack on Titan Eren X Armin)

Arrow Through The Heart

~Armin's POV~

Why... didn't I do anything? why couldn't I move? They all died in front of me and I didn't do anything about it.

Eren died in front of me.

Eren wanted to see the world with me.
With Me.

Outside the walls there was a beautiful world filled with water and lava alike. We couldn't see any of it being trapped inside the walls like how birds are trapped in cages, no freedom.

We trained so hard and waited for the day when we slaughtered all the Titans and get our freedom back to see the world but no... we failed, I failed I stood there and watched the blood shed of my friends.

Eren... why couldn't you just let me die instead!? I'm useless... how can I help Mankind? I lost my best friend because I can't do anything.

All I am is a burden.

warm tears slipped down my face as I sniffled.

"Eren... I want to see it with you... we promised one day we would." I whispered to myself. A burning pain was in my chest everytime a thought about Eren hit me, I can't get him out of my mind... He was always there to my rescue when I needed him including Mikasa. I wish I could be stronger for my friends but I just don't know... I gazed at the sword I held within my hands.

What's it like to die? whats beyond this? where is Eren now?

This is insane... I can't take it anymore! I'm going to be fighting this battle alone... nobody at my side.

I pulled the sword up to my chest as my hands began to shake, maybe it isn't so bad to die.

Eren I'll find you... I'll be with you soon enough, all my suffering will finally end.

I kept seeing images of Eren dying, he's gone... I couldn't save him.

~Flash Back~

Before I knew it I found myself sliding down the massive Titan's mouth, I screamed as I thrashed in desperation to save myself.

Its all over.

My eyes went shut in fear.

Soon enough I felt something grab my hand quickly opening my eyes I see Eren holding onto me, I was shocked.

Eren grunted as he started to pull me up, Everything was going by so fast.

With one last pull Eren flung me out of the Titan's mouth and back onto the roof, I was coated in saliva as I watched Eren holding the Titan's mouth open with all his strength.

"Armin... listen" He managed to spit out. I was still paralyzed.

"The outside world... we have to s- see it... I refuse to die like this... being trapped not seeing whats outside the walls... we just have to see it." Eren weakly said as he reached out for me.

As quickly as I could I tried to grab him but it was to late. Right in front of me the Titan's mouth shut snapping Eren's arm off sending it flying while swallowing him.

"EREN NOOO!!" I shouted as tears escaped me, My blood ran cold he's gone... No it can't be.  

Feeling traumatized I began to scream at the top of my lungs.

It can't be! no!

I stood completely frozen in despair as my screams grew louder making my throat strain.

Eren... no...

~Flash Back Ends~

"EREN!! YOU CAN'T JUST DIE!!" I shouted between sniffles, the sword was near my heart, it ached.
