Freez: To all of those who are about to read this, it is a love story, doesn’t really look like it from the first chapter, but it will in the end be a love story. I’m not sure how I’m going to do it or anything like that but I will admit that I’m going to have a plot line that follows very closely to what I believe Attack on Titan is getting at with the hints to what is in the basement at Eren’s house in Shiganshina. I don’t think ahead when I write, I just feel the story as I write.
Hope you enjoy!
Expect quick updates because I’m liking where I’m going with this.
~*~*~
There where titans in the wall.
Nothing made sense anymore.
Eren kneeled before the person who was once again going to command his fate, Darius Zackly. When he had been in this position before, there was no doubt about how he was at the will of this man and the only person that saved him from the fate of being dissected was Levi’s performance.
His eyes shifted to the side, scanning over his friends and comrades. All of their faces where solemn. Mikasa was shaking, obviously ready to jump foreword and try and save him when the time was right. His eyes softened and he shook his head no at her. Armin had his hand strung in with Mikasa’s and tears fell silently down his face.
When Eren’s eyes came to rest on the face of his Corporal, his eyes widened.
His Corporal, the man who almost always looked bored or even put-out by the world had his eyes downcast, shadowed by his bangs. Eren’s heart raced, wondering what his Corporal could be thinking. Was he also going to cry for Eren’s sake? Or was he silently laughing in his head, preparing to finish him off himself?
Eren didn’t notice the tears falling until they made a soft sound on the tiles below him in the courtroom.
Levi’s head began to move upwards to face Eren but Eren quickly turned away, not able to wipe away the tears that where trailing down his cheeks.
“You know why you are here today,” Darius said, placing a paper down after reading it onto a large stack in front of him. “After the most recent attack with the Female Titan and all of the events that lead up to that instance, your usefulness to Human Kind’s existence has come up again.”
Eren stared up at the man in front of him, his hands cuffed and bound behind him shook with the rage that Eren was feeling.
He did everything he could, he trained the hardest he could, he listened to every order given to him and even followed along with attacking Annie and then defeating her.
“Because of your fight with the Female Titan, many innocent people lost their lives. This is not only your fault but also the fault of the Scouts. Making a plan like the one Commander Erwin, but not informing the chain of command because of the notion of who can be trusted and who can’t, has cost many people their lives.” Darius looked towards the commander who stood perfectly still. “Do you still believe you are of use to the human race, Eren?”
“Yes, sir! I have been working on controlling the titan form and I’ve followed every order given-!”
“That’s not the issue boy!” The military commanding officer yelled, making Eren turn his tear stained face towards him in shock.
“The issue is weather or not more fights like the one that you pulled will happen and how many more lives will be lost in the process!” The man was yelling so angrily that Eren could see the spit flying through the air.
“I can still do it!” Eren yelled, pulling at the chains binding his wrists, making a clanking sound as he talked, “I can still fight the titans! On the other side of the wall! I don’t need to be part of missions like the one to capture Annie! I’ll just clear the path to wall Maria so that it can be re-taken!”
Darius’s eyes stared into Eren. Then shifted to Corporal Levi.
“I know that Corporal Levi has succeeded in his part of the bargain to keep you in line.” Eren’s eyes shot to Levi, who’s head was still bowed. “I will now take him up on the final offer that he made that day.”
Eren’s eyes grew wide as he turned his head back to the man in front of him.
The room was silent except for the small gasps of realization blooming within the troops that where present.
“Eren Jaeger, I, Darius Zackly, sentence you to death. You will not be permitted to leave this room alive, for it will endanger too many people. Corporal Levi, I sentence you to take Eren Jaeger’s life, like promised.
Mikasa strained against Armin, her eyes furious and unfocused. “NO! Eren’s done nothing but help human kind! Because of him we where able to stop Annie from being part of the military corps! Haven’t any of you wondered why she was there?! To kill the king?! To destroy human kind from INSIDE our walls?! Without Eren, that could have happened!!” Tears fell down Mikasa’s face, staring directly at Darius.
Levi had moved faster than anyone could see, kicking Eren across the face like he had done so many months ago.
“Mikasa….” Came the Corporal’s chilly voice. “It doesn’t matter…”
Eren coughed at the blood that trailed from his nose and from his mouth. His eyes stung with the emotions that where overwhelming him. This was it… He was going to die, and it was going to be the person that Eren…
A sharp pain sliced through Eren’s chest, he closed his eyes. What was this feeling? The same one that he felt every time that he looked at the Corporal and saw those eyes and the way they would stare impassively at him, at everything. The feelings that would chew away at him at night as he lay in his bed, thinking about all the amazing things that he saw his Corporal do, whether it was on the battle field or commanding the people around him.
He thought back to when Levi helped defend him when he turned partially into a titan just from picking up a fork. He remembered watching how Corporal could slice through the air and kill two titans within seconds. How much Eren wanted to be like him. How much Eren wanted…
To be an actual savior instead of a monster.
That’s what Corporal Levi was to Eren. His savior… His angel…
Metal on metal rang in the courtroom as Corporal Levi unsheathed his sword.
Eren tried to swallow as he looked up at Corporal but his mouth was too dry. He still couldn’t see his Corporal’s eyes. Eren wondered why he wouldn’t look at him directly. Eren so badly wanted to see those eyes, the ones that never showed any emotion.
The sword was decisive and true, straight through Eren’s body it ran. He could faintly hear Mikasa’s screams but they sounded so distant.
Eren looked away from Corporal Levi’s face down to the sword that was sticking out from his chest. He grunted as the sword exited his body and then re-entered farther down and sideways.
When Eren looked back up he finally saw Levi’s eyes. His pupils looked red, and the way his lips pulled back into that feral sneer made Eren’s heart beat wildly in his chest.
All Eren could do was stare up into those eyes and the emotion that was so plainly viewed at this moment. Eren had never seen anything like this from his commander. There was true agony in his Corporal’s eyes. It made Eren speechless in awe at how truly amazing his Corporal could be.
A spatter of blood on the ground made Eren turn to look. For some reason, he couldn’t feel it anymore; the pain seemed just to be a distant throb as he felt his chest empty. He didn’t bother to look down at himself, just met his Corporal’s eyes. He could tell by the noise in the courtroom what he must look like at the moment.
Mikasa was screaming, the right side of the room was smiling while the left side looked like they just saw the most horrible thing ever, even worse then their friends being eaten by titans.
Time seemed frozen for Eren as he stared at those eyes that seemed to be telling him everything yet nothing at the same time. Corporal Levi was looking down at Eren, eyes still swimming with emotions that Eren couldn’t understand but made his heart swell with pain like before.
Then there was the last slice of his Corporal’s sword, pierced his heart directly. Eren coughed, blood swelling up his throat. Corporal was close to Eren now, holding him up, one hand on the hilt of the sword and the other wrapped around Eren’s back.
Eren let his head rest on his Corporal’s shoulder. There was a breath against his ear and he could almost make out what the Corporal was whispering but it sounded so far away.
“I… always… should… told…” Eren’s brow wrinkled in confusion. The Corporal was making no sense at all. It made Eren want to laugh but his body wasn’t cooperating with him. He felt like water was trying to wash him away. Like the currents where pulling at his very being, wanting him to leave his body and sail away.
He felt his arms released from behind him and the sensation of floating came over him. He couldn’t hold his head up anymore and he couldn’t see, everything was just too fuzzy. That was when darkness swallowed him.
