Everything was perfect now. The war was over, the fighting was over, and the three nation's Paradise, Marley, and Eldia we're now allies. Neither sides will have to kill each other any longer.
The citizens behind the walls on the island of Paradise were celebrating their time of peace filled with freedom alongside the Marleyans and Eldians who came to visit for the celebration.
The people celebrated out in the streets, they celebrated inside their homes, bars, and Mess Halls.
Eren was currently sitting on the edge of his bed inside his room within the Private Quarters. Eren held a pistol in his hand, but a calm and happy expression was smeared across his face.
As he was lost in his thoughts, he remembered his family, friends, and fallen comrades. Finally...the war was over. Peace was everyone's. Finally...they're free.
The fighting, the death, the sacrifices...none of it was in vain. "Perhaps now....I can rest in peace. Knowing that freedom is theirs. Knowing the world's a better place. Knowing that I can finally atone for my sins."
Eren's smile curled up on his lips never faded away. It remained. Even as he fluttered shut his eyes. Even when he pulled the trigger...the smile remained.
And it remained as he spread out his blood stained wings and soared into the skies above.
Like a fallen angel
Toki no kaze ni
Nagasarete ochite yuku
Into the starry night
Megami no youni

The door had a couple knocks at first. Soft voices followed along with it. But as more time passed, following along with nothing more but silence, the voices rose, and what was originally calm knocks turned into loud and powerful banging becoming more franquet by the seconds that passed.
Eventually in time, the door was forced open. But by time they got in, it was too late. For he was gone.

In the waving grass stood a gravestone with the words, "Eren Yeager R.I.P" was encarved. On the backside of the stone words telling how he was Paradise' final hope who eventually lead all three nation's (Paradise, Marley, and Eldia) to peace, understanding, and freedom.
Eren has rested at this very spot for a long time now. It's been at the very least, a month or more.
Eren thought that when he'd finally taken his life away, not only would he be atoning for his sins, but he'd be taking away all his pain.
And that's exactly what happened. However, he never considered once that the happy ones he treasured most...would end up receiving worst pain than he could ever feel.
The two sat before his gravestone, their heads hunkered down, tears silently sliding down their face.
"Why...why does Eren...always do this? Why must he...always go somewhere far away from us?"
"I know...it isn't fair. It isn't fair what he did. Eren has always run off on his own, leaving us behind. But...I guess...that's how things are meant to happen. For Eren, at least."
