More Than I Should

Chapter 3- "That Day Part 3"

I watched one of the rocks fly over my head, heading straight towards my house.

I looked at everyone and ran. I hear them call my name because I'm running straight where the Titans are. I could care less anymore. I run as fast as I can to my house. I took a deep breath as I saw my house still intact. My brother and Mother though, just stood there, watching a Titan walk closer and closer to them.

As I am farther away, the titan couldn't see me. I stood there comprehending what was happening. They're just standing there. They're going to die!

"Mom! Takeo! Run!" I yell while I was running over to them. I stop running and stare at them.

They both look at me and try to run, but they were too late. The titan grabbed them and slowly pulled them closer to its mouth. I stared at it, tears filling my eyes. This is how it's going to be. I'm literally watching my family die in front of my eyes. The only family I have left. 

Once my Mom and Takeo were in the mouth enough, the titan smashed its teeth down. Their bodies splitting in half. Their blood flying everywhere. I wept and cried, not caring if I died anymore. The last thing I said to my Mom was "fine" and it was towards an argument. The last thing I told Takeo was "I hate you." I didn't even say goodbye to them. I said harmful, hurtful words. Now they're gone.

I continue to cry enormously and the titan comes closer, meter by meter. Foot by foot. Inch by inch. I don't care. I should just die. I felt someone grab onto my waist and they fly into the air using their 3D maneuver gear. I look up and I see a woman with short orange-ish hair. Isn't that Petra from the Scouts?

She moves me to where the boats are and says, "help her get on the boat." 

The man who was standing there had a confused look. "She just can't cut-"

"Just do it. Captain's orders." She says, leaving.

"Go on, bitch. You're lucky you even get to be on this boat." He says with a stern voice.

I look down and walk onto the boat before everyone. Were they talking about Captain Levi? Why would he order that I needed to get on the boat before everyone else?

I continue to walk onto the crowded boat, watching people mourn and weep about their lost families. I can't use all my energy crying, can I? What use will that be? I spot Eren, Armin, and Mikasa and I walk over to them. My face is still stained from my tears of grief and sorrow. I notice that Eren's face is stained too.

Eren reminds me of my brother, Takeo. They both have that interesting determination. They both are strong, mentally and physically. Eren's eyes are like Takeo's. Without even thinking, I run up to Eren and hug him.

I sob onto his shoulder as he awkwardly hugs me. Although, he's crying himself.

"I'm sorry Takeo," I mumble.

"What?" Eren says.

I stay silent. I catch a glimpse of Takeo's face instead of Eren's. Why didn't they run when they could? They had a chance? Didn't they?

"S-sorry Eren. I didn't-"

"It's okay, Y/n." He says while hugging me.

The next time I see a titan, they're not going to be alive for too long. I will destroy every Titan that comes in my way. Even if its the giant titan. I don't care anymore. I will fight for my home. I will fight for my life. I will fight for the future. I will fight...for Takeo and Mom.

*Time skip to the Ship Moving into Wall Rose*

The boat is in Wall Rose and everyone is in their homes a little anxious as to what happened on Wall Maria. 

I see a little girl playing and enjoying life. She has no idea what's on the other side of those walls and she should never find out.

 I attempt to smile at the little girl and that makes everyone else smile slightly, as I haven't smiled for about an hour. I feel an arm around my shoulders and I look to see who it was. I see the blonde haired boy smiling at me.

"This isn't the best advice I could give at the moment but everything will be okay." He says, looking about.

"Thanks, Armin. But, the question is, how do we know that this won't happen again but to Wall Rose?" I ask, looking at the scenery.

I can't get my mind off that giant titan. The way it broke the wall tore my heart apart. How could it do that with such ease?
