-Marley. Confinement Zone.-
All out war. That was all that could be described given the current situation. The continent of Marley, several thousand nautical miles from the Walls on Paradis Island, was under siege by members of the Survey Corps, and the Marleyans were losing.
The leader of the assault, Asura Fritz, observed from afar. The flames hadn't died down yet, and could be seen for miles, coloring the night sky a blazing orange.
It'd be beautiful if it weren't for all the dead bodies in the Confinement Zone.
Asura sniffed the air, the scent of burning flesh and blood filled his nose. He sighed.
"How did it all come to this?" He asked. "Eren... I wonder, could things have been different?"
"Commander!" A Scout yelled. He saluted his superior officer. "Eren has engaged three enemy Titan Shifters. What are your orders?"
Asura started walking to the Confinement Zone. "Get your squad together, Jean, and follow me. I'll clear a path." He ordered.
Jean nodded and gathered his squad.
Asura grabbed his dagger and sliced his hand open, which caused a bolt of lightning to strike him.
In his place stood a lithe quadruped Titan that resembled more of a beast than a normal Titan.
The Titan's red eyes pierced the black of night like daggers, and razor sharp fangs could be seen in its maw.
It let out a blood curdling roar before it charged the Marleyan defense line.
The Marleyan soldiers saw The Feral Titan and prepared to fire at it.
Behind the Titan, Jean and his squad followed it on horseback.
"Howitzers! Fire on the Feral Titan!" The Marleyan Commander ordered. The Howitzers fired at their target, but every shot missed.
The Feral Titan dodged the projectiles with ease, and continued its sprint to the Confinement Zone.
It didn't care about the lives of these soldiers, they were its enemy and thus, they died.
To live is to fight after all.
The Feral Titan soon made it to the wall of the Confinement Zone, but the Marleyans were still an obstacle.
It jumped up the wall and swatted the cannons, destroying every single one. It then targeted the humans operating the devices.
It crushed two with its hand, and impaled another with its claws. It then bit another, shaking the soldier around like a ragdoll, breaking her bones while doing so.
"DAMN YOUUUUUUUU!" One soldier screamed. He brought two swords down on the Feral Titan's neck, but the blades shattered when they hit its fur.
"W-what?" The man whimpered. Suddenly a quill shot up, cutting the soldier in half length-wise.
The sole surviving Marleyan was frozen in fear, as she looked into the Feral Titan's blood red eyes, the corpse of her comrade still in its jaws.
"I-it's a monster.... A DEMON!!!" She screamed.
The Feral Titan threw the corpse in its mouth away, and turned its gaze to the soldier. A low growl escaped its throat, before it bit her. And swallowed her whole.
(Eren... Mikasa... Armin...) The Feral Titan thought. (How... did it all come to this?)
