I still remember that day very clearly. The day when the enemy attacked our final line of defense. The day we almost didn't escape alive, along with Annie's crystal. But then, she sacrificed herself for us all.
I still remember that moment she hesitantly stood up and gave me one final smile. It was another tender smile she always gifted me. But then, there was nervousness and fear in that smile.
She could have simply acted rashly or stupid in manys eyes from that moment, but always, she appeared to me as brave. Doing the one thing she fears most.
More than anyone else who knew her, I knew her best. I was the one she went to for everything. So of course, I would know.
What fears her most, is facing up against the Titans. And at that moment, that's was she did. She stood up against her fear, and to save us, she dived in and slayed the Titans to buy us enough time to escape back inside the Walls.
But by doing so, she had to sacrifice her life. Many among her graduates, believes that she may still be alive and out there. Deep in my heart, that's what I truly want to believe as well. But my brain knows it can't be possible.
Often I will always sit myself uptop the wall, looking down at the vast land spread out before me. The land that the Titans to this very day, have still, stolen away from us.
Sometimes I look out there, hoping to find her. To spot her returning to us. To return with that same wonderful smile she blessed us with, the five long years we knew her.
But never have I see her return. No matter how badly I wished for her to. No matter how hard I looked. It just wasn't possible. The number of Titans that ambushed her that day, the number of Titans she willingly flied towards to put an end to, it would be impossible for one person alone to defeat so many Titans and to actually manage getting out alive.
There have been nights I have dreamt nightmares of that day. She would be ready to take off, to sacrifice her life in order to save ours, and I would try to reach out to her, to stop her. To try to talk things out with her, to figure out some other way. But there was never enough time. There was never any other way. And I would have to watch her die in front of my eyes again and again. I never actually saw her die, however. But only in my hellish dreams.
I will sit on top the wall every morning and evening, in hopes to spot her in the far off distance. But in the end, she never appears. And there are often times, Eren and Mikasa will find me sitting there and they would be the ones to drag me away. But in the end, every day, I always end up returning to the exact same spot.
No matter where you are, even if I must travel to the ends of this world, I will find you.
