Marco- a titan shifter

Chapter one

Im running my legs aching, burning. I have managed to lead the titan away from jean, I hope this gives him enough time to save himself, I wouldn't be able to live with myself if jean dies. He's my best friend and I love him, I know the feelings aren't reciprocated and that he loves Mikasa but I still like to be with him to share his company. I always said I would risk my life for his and now I have no doubts I would, I've pulled a titan from him that is now in pursuit of me, and I don't regret it. my 3DM gear has jammed as well and I can't get off the ground. I sprint across the cobble stone turning when ever Possible as this slows the titan down. As I turn a sharp corner my body lurches and hits the ground with a crack.

I turn to see what I had tripped over, its another man, well boy really, he looks as if he couldn't be older then 16 or 17. To think of it he looks quite a bit like me he has dark brown hair and just about as many freckles as me, but now the whole left side of his body is gone, taken by a titan then the rest left to rot like so many others. I can't think about that right now, in this moment I need to save myself. All my attempts to stand again are seemingly futile it looks as if my fall resulted in a broken bone or two. Just as I come to this terrifying realisation I feel a crushing grip around my waist.

As the 8 meter class titan slowly pulls me to its mouth the memories most important to me flash before my eyes. I see my mother, were baking and shes laughing, the light pale scene changes to a darker bloodier memory of her death. I see my little sister, she sits on her bed as I tell her of a far of place where no one has to worry about titans but again the scene changes and I once again see her fragile body torn in two and thrown on the ground of my childhood home. I see all my friends Eran, Mikasa, armin, Sasha, Connie, and Jean... Jean my memory lingers on him. I see him laughing calling me freckle face and playfully slugging me in the arm. I remember that conversation, it was the first one we ever had. I had walked up to him as he sat out side the dormitory alone, I sat next to him and asked him if anything was wrong and he told me how he was 'just angry' at how cocky Eran was and how he had called him horse face, I then said it was a cute name "horse face" I teased that's when he tried to bite back and call me freckle face then realising how stupid of a come back that was resorted to punching me in the arm. Soon after that we became great friends, *sighs* I really love jean, I just wish I could tell him.

I snap out of my daze as I enter the titans mouth my feet just missing it's teeth. It's so hot in here. The pain from the titans crushing hands and my prior fall has started to come around, I feel a sharp pain in my right thigh as well as my ribs. The mixture of the boiling heat and splitting pain causes me to slip out of consciousness everything around me turns fades away to black
