Chapter 4
Zuschauer didn't go away quickly at all.
Every time Levi turned around or looked up she was there, hovering in the background and staring at him and Eren with those unnerving, wide eyes. He wondered what the hell it would take for her to finally fuck off and leave them alone.
He and Eren were practically attached to the hip nowadays, spending so much time with each other that the only moments they weren't near each other was when they were taking a piss or shitting. What more could she possibly fucking want?
"Well, I'd say it's because you're not exactly being affectionate with each other," Hange mused, tapping a pen against her chin. "Or you know, touchy feely in general."
"Nobody asked your opinion, Hange," Levi said irritated, glaring at the stack of documents in front of him. He was seriously considering the possibility that the higher ups were dumping more paperwork on him as revenge for not getting their hands on Eren.
Or was that paranoid? Whatever, being paranoid had never hurt him before.
"What are you even doing in my office?" he continued, switching his glare to the mad scientist straddling the chair in front of his desk. "Don't you have some fucked up experiment to perform or something like that?"
"None of my experiments are 'fucked up', Levi," she chided him, waggling her finger. "The eyes of that titan we disposed of a few days ago are being cooked right now, so I have some free time. Figured I'd visit my favourite grumpy boy!" She grinned; her glasses glinting in the grey daylight.
He stared at her. "Why the hell are you even cooking those?" he asked disgusted; his grip around his pen tightening.
She tilted her head to the right, looking at him surprised. "To see what kind of temperature it'd take to destroy them, of course," she stated, pulling on her ponytail. "I know fire has been tried before with not a lot of success, but that might just be because the previous attempts were working with fire that wasn't hot enough. If we can figure out the point at which a fire is strong enough to destroy the tissues of a titan, we could potentially come closer to a new weapon. I thought about using boiling oil, but really, that would only work decently on the top of the walls and we don't have nearly enough cauldrons for that. Not to mention for that to work, the titans would all have to be smaller and come close enough to the wall in order to get hit and I suppose given past events, that might not be so - "
"Eren, get here and help me with this paperwork!" Levi called out, cutting off Hange's rambling. If she kept yapping like that, his headache would only grow and that was the last thing he needed.
The door opened further and Eren's head popped through the gap. "You called me, sir?"
"Yes, come in and take half of this paperwork," Levi ordered, shoving half of the documents away from him. "I swear, this pile just gets bigger every week."
"Do I just need to sign them or so?" Eren asked uncertainly, drawing closer to the desk, but staying clear from Hange.
Levi couldn't blame him for that. He'd have locked his door if he knew today would be the day Hange decided to emerge from her makeshift cave.
"Yeah, just put your signature on the last page; that's all you have to do."
"Won't they notice it if the papers are signed by two different people?" Eren furrowed his eyebrows, but dragged another chair closer to the desk.
"They don't care who signs them, as long as they are signed," Levi grunted, grabbing his pen and throwing another one on top of Eren's half. "Here's a pen you can use."
"All right." Eren blinked, looking a bit surprised, but he sat down and flipped the page of the first document to sign the bottom of the second one.
Hange clapped her hands and stood up; her eyes glinting madly as she grinned, "Well, I'll leave you two alone then. Behave you two!"
The heavy book Levi threw at her viciously – one he had found in the castle, but hadn't opened yet – missed her by just half an inch and she ran out of the room cackling, probably returning to her lab to check on her disgusting experiment.
Grateful for the peace and quiet that descended upon the room once the crazy scientist had finally left, Levi bent over his own pile of documents, glancing quickly through the first one before placing his signature at the end.
That was how he handled most documents that he was forced to fill in: read just enough to get some kind of idea about the content of the document before signing it. Not the smartest method, perhaps, but he had figured out a long time ago that Erwin went over the documents himself after Levi was done with them. If Levi ended up signing something he shouldn't have, Erwin would just make it disappear. It was a system that worked and Levi wasn't about to change his manner of working any time soon.
"By the way, sir," Eren spoke up after a while. "Do you have any idea what's smelling so badly in Hange's lab?"
"You don't want to know, Eren, trust me," Levi said darkly.
He could swear he heard Hange cackling somewhere downstairs in response.
A few days later he was once again accosted by Zuschauer.
He had just finished cleaning the last room on the second floor and was making his way to the third one to check up on Eren's progress. For all that the kid had been a complete disaster at the start, he was swiftly improving and unlike the others, Levi trusted him to handle the rooms on his own.
He still checked up on him just in case, but Eren had clearly finally learnt the definition of 'clean'. Levi wished he could say the same for the others. That Springer boy might actually manage to drown himself in a bucket of water one of these days.
"What do you want?" he asked irritated. He still needed to check the basement after this and he didn't trust Braun and Hoover to do a decent job with that one. Last time they had still missed several cobwebs. How the hell one could miss so many cobwebs – especially large guys like them – was a mystery that he'd really like to solve one day.
Clutching her ever present notebook to her stomach, she licked her lips and said nervously, "I was just – I couldn't help but notice that you and your Companion aren't very … erm, affectionate so to speak."
He raised an eyebrow and stared at her unimpressed. "I don't know what kind of people you observed before, Zuschauer, but I'm not exactly the type to fuck someone in front of an audience," he sneered and she flinched, taking a step back.
Still she didn't completely back down. "It's just that your Companion seems to be mostly cleaning and acting as some kind of secretary for you when he's not training and that's not exactly what a Companion should - " She cut herself off with a frightful squeak when Levi took a step closer.
"Eren's my Companion," he said lowly, narrowing his eyes. "I'm his Enquirer and I'm the one who decides what he does. If I decide he needs to clean the whole fucking castle, he'll clean this entire place from top to bottom. If I want him to sign some paperwork, he'll sign the bloody paperwork. If I tell him to suck my cock at night, he'll do that too. What Eren does during the day and what he does during the night is something I decide and not you. That's the whole point of the Companion contract, isn't it? That he does what I tell him to do?"
She stood there frozen and he sneered harder. No wonder she'd got some cushy job in the inner city – if she was already nearly wetting her knickers when he wasn't even yelling at her, she would never survive outside the walls. Fucking pathetic.
"Isn't it?" he demanded with more force.
"Yes, it is!" she answered shrilly; her eyes shining with unshed tears.
He took a step back and snorted. "I thought so. Now get the hell out of my sight; I've got better things to do than to talk to you," he said contemptuously.
He watched her run away like a bat out of hell and shook his head. "You make a habit of eavesdropping on conversations, Erwin?" he asked idly and the door to his right opened completely, revealing the taller man.
"You were talking right in front of this room," Erwin pointed out mildly and crossed his arms. "You're playing with fire, Levi."
"Eren's my Companion; I don't need to listen to anyone telling me how I should use him," Levi spat, glowering at the other man.
"I'm on your side, Levi," Erwin reminded him and frowned. "But she's becoming suspicious and I don't know how long you can keep fooling her with your act now. They might send someone else in her place if she doesn't return soon."
"As if I don't know that," Levi growled, balling his hands to fists. "I'm not going to force him into anything, Erwin. I'm not going to be like them."
He wasn't going to be like all those others who took pleasure in abusing and raping other people. He had become Eren's Enquirer to prevent that fate from happening to the kid – like hell was he going to hurt the boy now.
"I know you're not," Erwin said infuriatingly calm. "And I'm not saying you have to act like one of them. You need to change something, however, before they decide to send someone who's not as easily intimidated by you as Miss Zuschauer is."
The dark haired man scowled at him, hating that he was right. "I'll figure something out," he muttered. Something that wouldn't push them both beyond their boundaries too much. "I need to check up on the cleaning."
Erwin smiled faintly, inclining his head. "But of course. I'll leave you to it." He disappeared back into the room which he had claimed as his temporary office.
Snorting softly Levi continued his way up to the third floor, which hopefully by now would be spotless. As he set foot on the last step, he caught the tail end of Kirstein's sentence.
"… don't care what the fuck you and the Captain do, but I really, really don't want to be bugged again by that woman, Yeager." Kirstein sounded beyond annoyed; his voice drifting through the hallway from the door on the left.
"You think I like being stalked by her?" Eren growled and there was the sound of something wet smacking against a hard surface. "Trust me, I'd love nothing more than for her to fuck off! Don't even know why you're complaining, horse face. She's probably going to be the only woman who'll ever give you the time of her day."
Surprisingly Kirstein ignored that sneering jab and retorted irritated, "Just fucking do something, Yeager! We're all fed up with her questions about you and the Captain – pretty sure even Ymir is contemplating throwing her to the titans at this point."
"Yeah, yeah, fuck off, will you? I'm not done yet here and I know that you screwed up your room again, so tend to that before the Captain sees it."
"There's nothing wrong with the way I clean, bastard!" Kirstein hissed and stormed out of the room, not even noticing Levi leaning against the door of the opposite room. He was still spitting some very explicative words, cursing Eren to hell and back when he descended the staircase.
A remark about his inability to deal with women didn't faze the guy, but a remark about his lack of cleaning abilities set him off like a firecracker? Levi thought he'd never understand any of the new recruits. A screw loose, every single one of them if you asked him.
Eren was cleaning the windowsill when Levi entered the room; a grey bucket next to his feet and a clean white cloth tied around his head, hiding his brown hair for the most part. His sleeves were pushed up, revealing bare forearms which flexed as he started scrubbing harder at a particular spot on the windowsill.
Looking around, Levi noted that the rest of the room was spotless; only the windowsill was the last filthy part left but Eren was attacking it viciously, obviously determined to get it gleaming like the rest of the room.
If only the rest of his team could be as diligent about cleaning as Eren was.
"You finished the other rooms?" he asked, stepping closer to the boy.
Eren started lightly and turned his head to glance at the captain. "Ah yeah, just this room and sweeping the corridor and then I'm done here, sir," he replied, dipping the cloth in the bucket before attacking the windowsill again.
"Good to hear." Levi nodded. "What did Kirstein want?"
He knew they had been talking about Zuschauer – and maybe he should seek her out and demand her to back off from the rest of his team, because she was getting very close to overstepping some important boundaries – but he wanted to know what exactly Kirstein had meant with Eren having to do something to deal with Zuschauer.
Pausing his cleaning, Eren turned around to face him completely and grimaced, shrugging half-heartedly. "Seems like Zuschauer has been going around, asking my friends whether they've ever caught us being, er, 'close'." He wrinkled his nose, glancing away, but continued, "I think she's trying to find evidence that I'm not being an actual Companion, but my friends won't tell her anything."
Hm, it seemed like they weren't that oblivious or stupid after all.
"But she keeps bugging them and horse face's on my back to do something so that she'll stop annoying them," he huffed and rolled his eyes. "Don't know why he complains, really, considering he's not being watched by her constantly."
"She accosted me on the second floor just now," Levi murmured, crossing his arms. "Trying to fish how intimate we are exactly."
"What's it going to take for her to finally leave?" Eren asked frustrated, his hand tightening around the cloth, squeezing excess water from it.
More than what we've been doing now. Pursing his lips together, Levi gave Erwin's words some serious thought. As much as he didn't like to admit it, Erwin was right in that Levi and Eren would have to do something to convince Zuschauer they weren't cheating the organisation out of a Companion. If they continued like they did now, Zuschauer would never become convinced and someone else might take her place to get some actual results – and that person might end up being even worse.
Fuck this all to hell, he hadn't signed up for this shit when he agreed to join the Survey Corps.
"How much experience do you actually have, Eren?" he asked bluntly. There was no way he was going to touch the kid in any kind of inappropriate manner, but they had to become a bit more intimate unfortunately.
Ackerman was going to have an aneurism for sure.
"Experience?" Eren repeated bewildered before his eyes widened in comprehension and he flushed, rubbing the back of his neck as he looked away. "Er, I've kissed if that counts."
Now it was Levi's turn to be surprised. With a sister like Eren's, he hadn't really expected the brunet to actually have some experience. That was interesting. "With whom?"
Eren waved his hand haphazardly and his flush deepened. "Er, it wasn't – it wasn't anything special. It was for a stupid dare some years ago."
"You kissed someone for the first time for a dare?" Levi wasn't a romantic by any means, but he knew that most people, even in the world they lived in, still considered the first kiss to be something special. Somehow he had assumed Eren would be one of those people.
The boy shrugged, wrinkling his nose. "It's just a kiss; was over quickly anyway," he said, plopping the cloth into the bucket for the time being. "Nothing special about it."
"Who were you dared to kiss?"
"Doesn't matter," Eren was quick to answer, but the way he steadily reddened piqued Levi's interest.
Was it someone of their squad? Was that why Eren was being so evasive about it when he'd just acted rather blasé about the actual kiss?
"Was it Kirstein?" Levi questioned curiously, wondering whether that was the reason behind this weird rivalry the two had going on.
"Oh god, ew, no!" Eren replied aghast, making retching sounds while bending over and clutching his throat. "Me kissing that stupid horse face? That's disgusting!"
Levi shrugged; the corner of his mouth tugging up in amusement. "Hey, it might explain why you're at each other's throat constantly."
"That's just because Jean's a bastard," Eren grimaced, straightening out. His hand left a damp print behind on his collar.
"Then who - "
"Doesn't matter," Eren quickly cut him off. "Why did you ask me anyway, sir?"
Every trace of amusement instantly evaporated and Levi pressed his lips into a thin line, mulling over his decision one last time. Well, it wasn't like he had much of a choice.
"Zuschauer's not going to fuck off unless she has some proof that we're behaving like a good Enquirer and Companion. In light of that, I think it's best if we show a bit more intimacy when she's around," he explained stiffly.
Eren swallowed audibly and his already large eyes widened even more. "Erm, what kind of intimacy are we talking about, Captain?" he inquired, voice higher than normal and that did nothing to make Levi feel better about what he was about to propose.
"Nothing too much, just a kiss here and there," Levi replied, shoulders tensing up unwillingly when Eren gaped at him. "I know this isn't exactly ideal," he added through gritted teeth, "but it's only until - "
"That's fine! I don't mind!" Eren said hurriedly, but the red colour had yet to leave his face and was actually steadily creeping down his neck.
"You don't mind?" Levi repeated sceptically, watching how the boy fidgeted.
"N-no, it's just like you said, sir – she won't go away unless we give her something and some kisses should be enough for her," Eren said, nodding even as his voice was slightly shaky.
Eyeing the titan shifter warily, Levi beckoned him closer. "Come here."
"Sir?"
"We have to make it look believable, so we're going to practice a bit now." The last thing they needed was for Eren to freak out or god forbid actually faint if Levi suddenly kissed him with Zuschauer near them.
She might be rather clueless, but she wasn't that bad and she would notice it if either of them acted uncomfortable during something as simple as a kiss.
"You want us to kiss now?" Eren's voice reached another octave higher, sounding like his balls were being squeezed harshly.
Quirking an eyebrow, the dark haired man asked impatiently, "You think you'll be able to react normally if I kiss you out of the blue?"
Eren pulled a face, but didn't offer any form of protest, proving to the older man that he would have most likely freaked out.
"Thought so. Now come here, before someone starts wondering where we are," Levi said impatiently, holding out his arms.
For a couple of seconds it looked like Eren was ready to bolt, but then he drew closer to Levi, fidgeting with his fingers and his eyes shining brightly with something Levi couldn't name immediately.
He halted in front of Levi and the man clucked his tongue at the space still left between them. Eren was already taller than him, if they kept this distance between them, kissing would become rather uncomfortable. More than it already would be in fact.
He tugged the boy closer to him, ignoring the squeak that elicited from him, and slipped his hand around Eren's neck, holding back a grimace when he felt the slightly damp skin underneath his hand. The downside of cleaning was that one often got quite filthy and sweaty.
Shaking off the revulsion at the sensation of his dry hand against sweaty skin, he put pressure on Eren's neck, forcing him to lower his head more.
"Don't freak out," he warned the brunet before locking their mouths together.
He didn't remember much of his own first kiss. He'd never been one for a relationship, especially not in the environment he'd grown up in, but he did have some experience. Enough to acknowledge that Eren wasn't that particularly bad at kissing.
Sure, his lips were somewhat rough, chapped because of his habit to chew on his lips, and he obviously hadn't brushed his mouth, but it wasn't bad.
It was a bit pleasant actually, even with the way Eren's lips moved uncertainly against his, breathing hot and quick through his nose, and hands which clamped down rather firmly around Levi's waist; fingers digging into his sides.
When he pulled back, ending the kiss, Eren was staring at him wide-eyed, cheeks coloured red and lips parted, showing a hint of teeth.
"See, that wasn't so bad," Levi said, stepping back and forcing the other one to release his grip. "If we do that a couple of times, that should be enough to convince her."
He nodded to the bucket. "Once you're finished here, it's time to prepare dinner. It's your team's turn tonight."
"Yes, sir!"
The acknowledgement came out rather breathy as if the brat had been running for hours instead of just kissing someone else.
Shaking his head Levi made his way back downstairs, hoping he hadn't completely broken the boy. That would be difficult to explain to the others, after all.
Now he needed to find a sink to wash his hand. Hopefully next time he had to kiss the kid, he wouldn't be this sweaty.
It was supposed to be just a routine check around the perimeter, finding out how much distance they could cross before encountering a titan. The plan was to stop once they caught sight of one, not to engage it at all and just turn around and return to the base.
They hadn't expected to walk straight into an entire horde of titans.
"Get to the trees!" Levi snapped, urging his horse to go faster.
They had their 3D gear with them, of course, but the less gas they had to waste, the better. Especially now that they had gone much further than they'd initially planned.
The ground shook and trembled underneath the combined stampede of their horses and the heavy footfalls of the titans running behind them. There were several five meter classes, but also ones of ten meters and even higher. They had appeared seemingly out of nowhere, leaving the group with no way to escape undetected.
"Captain, should I shift?" Eren asked, coming up next to him.
"No, best to wait until - "
But then a scream cut through the air and Levi whipped his head around, seeing Blouse fly away from her horse in a panic when a five meter titan reached out for her.
They were approaching the small forest, but the distance was still too large to provide immediate safety. Levi didn't like it, but considering how close the titans were approaching, they had no choice but to engage in battle.
"Spread out, get to the trees as fast as you can, but if necessary attack!" he barked out and a chorus of "YES, CAPTAIN!" echoed through the air.
"Eren, you can shift when you're ready, but concentrate on the biggest ones and take them out as fast as you can," Levi ordered and Eren nodded determined. "We'll take care of the rest."
"Yes, sir!"
"I'll take your horse, Eren," Arlert said somewhere behind Levi.
As the rest of them spread out, a loud explosion rocked the earth, filling the sky with a blinding light, before a ferocious roar rebounded in the air, making Levi clench this teeth. The next moment a giant arm smacked down a couple of feet away from Levi and his horse shivered underneath him.
Hopefully Eren retained enough of his consciousness to not throw any wayward limbs on his comrades.
One by one the titans fell, either cut down by one of them or torn to pieces by Eren, whose rage had him whirling around the titans as if they were nothing but stuffed toys, forcefully detaching limbs and ripping open stomachs, innards spilling out like feathers out of a pillow, before he stomped their heads flat.
He was both a gruesome and an amazing sight, sprayed with titan's blood and his eyes glinting maniacally as he ripped through one titan after another.
They were in the forest now, taking advantage of the large trees to scale down them, swinging from one tree to the next one, cutting down every titan which wandered into the forest. They were incredibly lucky to have been ambushed near a forest, because if they had to fight without any trees or high constructions around …
After cutting down yet another titan, he flew up one of the trees, breathing harshly as he surveyed his surroundings. Ackerman was flying from one titan to the next one, cutting their necks efficiently and quickly; her face filled with nothing but ruthless determination. Blouse and Springer had just finished cutting down two seven meter classes and were replacing their blades on top of some branches. Ymir just finished cutting the neck of a smaller one while Lenz landed next to her, telling her something that made the taller woman laugh. Good to know that girl's moral wasn't brought down by the carnage happening around them.
Kirstein and Arlert were bringing the horses deeper into the woods so that everyone would have a means of escape after this was over while –
Terrified screaming had Levi whipping his head to the right and he cursed when he saw Zuschauer on the ground, apparently having tripped over a root, and instead of getting up and flying away, the stupid bitch was just scrambling backwards, trying to avoid the pudgy fingers of the small titan.
"God damn it!" He knew the bint should have stayed back at the base!
Shooting one hook into a tree closest to them, he hurried to her and snatched her off the ground right before the titan with its bulging eyes snapped his teeth down, catching nothing but some branches.
"Would you calm down before I drop you!" Levi barked, but Zuschauer kept shrieking and wriggling around, full blown panic completely taking over. "Zuschauer! Calm the fuck down before we - "
Too late. His wires got tangled and the next moment they smacked against a tree, falling down. Something in his foot cracked as they tumbled down on the ground – the one he'd already hurt before during his fight with the Female Titan, shit, shit – and pain flared up hotly, shooting through his body and he barely held back a scream.
"Captain!" Arlert landed next to him, staring at him worriedly. "Are you okay?"
"Just fucking peachy," Levi grunted, shoving the hysterical bitch off of him. "Take her somewhere where she won't turn into titan food."
Her screaming had finally stopped, but now she was just staring ahead of her with blank eyes, breathing rapidly and rocking back and forth slightly.
"Is – is she okay?" Arlert asked, eyeing her warily.
"Hell if I know and I don't care either," Levi sneered, beyond pissed off at the woman cowering on the ground. Thanks to that stupid bitch, his foot was fucked up again. He could only pray it wasn't broken, but the way his foot protested fiercely when he carefully put it down on the ground – yeah, that wasn't very promising. Shit.
"Just get her out of my sight!"
"EREN!"
That name, yelled in such a frightful tone, had Levi's heart stop beating for a moment. Because the one screaming it was Ackerman and she was not one to get scared so easily. In fact the only other time she had sounded like this was when …
"Take care of Zuschauer!" he barked at Arlert and was already flying away before the boy could say something.
As he came closer to the edge of the forest, he saw just why exactly Ackerman was panicking so much.
Three fifteen meter tall titans were attacking Eren, ripping off skin and muscle. As Eren roared, his right arm was torn off, followed quickly by his left one. Eren bit down viciously in one of the titan's neck, but it was clear he was losing the fight, steam rising from every gaping wound on his body. His titan's body wouldn't be able to take the onslaught for much longer.
"I'll get him!" he yelled and Ackerman landed down on a branch heavily, her eyes wide as she nodded. "You and the others retreat now!" They couldn't keep burning gas and energy and there were more titans coming at them from the west.
Ackerman might be pissed off at him because of the whole Companionship thing, but she knew she could trust him to get Eren back, just like he had done before. He could only hope she and the others would follow his order to retreat before it was too late.
Ignoring how his foot throbbed and burned, he burnt more gas in an effort to get quicker to Eren, taking out one of the three titans before landing in Eren's neck. He made quick work of cutting the boy out of the steaming body, hacking off some fingers of a bald headed titan before it could grab them and draping Eren over his shoulder.
As Eren's titan body slumped down and started disintegrating, Levi flew away, back to the safety of the trees.
The sputtering of the cannisters had him cursing violently, realising grimly that he didn't have much gas left. He managed to land on one of the lower branches of a tree, thumping down heavier than intended and biting back a groan, he propped Eren against the trunk.
"You okay?" he asked, checking the boy quickly. He still had all his limbs and even his 3D gear had survived the transformation unscathed, which was good news because it wasn't like they were going to get much further with Levi's.
Green grey eyes opened slowly and for a few seconds they looked dazed, as if Eren had awoken from a deep sleep, before they sharpened and the brunet sat up straight. "Captain?"
"Good to have you back, brat," Levi grunted, wincing when he lowered himself down on the branch. "You nearly turned into titan food."
"The others?"
"Told them to retreat and they did."
Looking around, Eren stood up, brushing his hands over his trousers. "Shouldn't we go too?"
"We should, but my cannisters are practically empty and I don't know where my horse is," Levi admitted grimly, throwing the empty cannisters on the ground.
"We can use mine!" Eren instantly offered, checking his cannisters. "I haven't used these yet, so it should be enough to find our horses."
Grey eyes regarded him critically. "You think you can hold my weight?" Levi couldn't help but be sceptical.
Sure, it wasn't like he was fat, but he had more muscle than Eren and Eren hadn't flown with extra weight before. Now wasn't exactly the time to find out whether he could.
"It'll be fine," Eren said confidently, squinting down at the ground. "Or I could shift again and carry you like that?"
"No, you're not!" Levi snapped. "You haven't practiced shifting multiple times enough yet! If you fail now and turn into some kind of skeleton again, I won't be able to get down quickly enough to cut you out."
"Fine, fine, then I'll just carry you to our horses," Eren huffed, tapping the cannisters once before straightening out. "How do you want to do this, sir?"
Getting up again with only one foot to support his weight was not an easy task, but he forced himself to bite through the pain, knowing they couldn't stay here for much longer. "I think it's best if I - "
Something slammed into the tree, causing it to shake viciously. Caught off guard, Levi lost his balance and fell down –
Straight into the large, gaping mouth of a titan.
AN2: Apologies if the action scene sucks, guys. I've never been particularly good at writing those. (I'm not sorry about the cliffhanger, though)
Please leave your thoughts behind in a review; should you spot any mistakes, please point them out to me.
I hope to see you all back in the next chapter!
