Chapter 4

Before getting on your horse, you double-check your gear to make sure if it’s working good.

Finally, the day of the expedition arrived. You’re now in the last row of your team, with Levi leading the squad from the first row.

The bell rang, signaling the start of the expedition; you see the large gate open, displaying the peaceful area beyond the walls.

You tighten your grasp on the rein before moving forward together will all the scouts.

Riding in your horse, you scan the area for the chance of the titans appearing out of nowhere.

Even if you’ve been outside the walls before, you’re still terrified, thinking about being eaten alive by a titan.

It terrifies you to consider any of it. You got snapped back to your senses when you heard Levi commanded. "Titan on the right is approaching. Split into two, we’ll proceed as planned."

"When we go outside the walls, I’m going to split our team. I am going to decide who's on my team and who’s going to lead the other."

After Levi made his decision, you were teamed up with Jean, Armin, and Sasha. You really want to be on his side, but you can’t since it’s his decision.

"Why not Y/N be on your team, she's your wife," Mikasa said unexpectedly. You were taken aback, your eyes widened, and you couldn’t believe what you were hearing.

Levi turns to face you, "I know she can handle herself." He then said looking at you, with nothing to say you just nodded in response.

You and Jean, Armin and Sasha head to the left, while the rest go to the right. As you continued to move forward, heading to your meeting location with Levi, you heard a loud howl from behind you.

As you all turn to see what’s behind you, Sasha exclaimed horribly, “W-what’s that?!” You hear another howl. "What the..." you all gasp in horror to see large numbers of titans speeding up in your location.

You whipped the reins and accelerated your pace. "Quick, we're going to outrun it; there's no way we can win against them." You shouted back at them.

Your eye widened as you saw your teammates’ horrified expression. They couldn’t hear you because they were all terrified and shrouded in terror.

You look back to find the titans closing in on you. You then saw scouts fighting the titans from behind, but they were too many to handle. "Fuck!" you exclaimed as you drew your blades and prepared to battle.

"Armin, keep moving forward, I'll fight with them." You said as you beckoned Armin, who is now staring back at you with horror face in his eyes.

"Wait, what? What are you..." You drew a deep breath before you use your gear to hook up on the tree, you then shouted to Armin, "Faster, I'll buy you some time. Go!"

You hear Armin yell your name, but you ignore it. You shift your attention to the scouts who were screaming, struggling for their lives and other scouts who were being devoured alive.

You watch at the titan who smiling walks towards you, you flew over, heading to the titan’s nape.

As you perfectly landed on it, you fiercely smash its nape, quickly killing it and releasing scorching steam from its body.

You landed on the ground as the titan fall next to you. "I can do it, all I have to do now is slit their nape.”

You eliminate all titans who approach you. You simply kill them with all your might in order to survive.

You landed on one of the trees, breathing heavily, after killing four titans in a row. When you were going to run out of gas you exclaimed nervously, “Shit!”

I moved so much and lost so much gas. I might die before I could annihilate them all.

You were already drained and exhausted. You and only few of the scouts left, and there's still lot more titans remaining.

"Damn it, where did they come from all of sudden?" You were frightened as you pulls out another blade, only to discover it was you last two blades. I'm doomed.

You wonder if Armin and the others were successfully got away from here, and you hope they did.

"There's no hope, there are a lot of them, and we should retreat right now because we can’t win."

You heard some of the scouts, who were injured with heavy breathing and you saw that he was out of blades left. There’s no hope. No gas and no blades.

You diverted your sight to the screaming scout in the titan’s mouth, then turned aside as the titan devoured him alive.

You're breathing getting heavy, seeing yourself to be in his position, it makes your body tremble in fear. This is it, this is my end.

"Fuck this shit, I am really going to die!" You heard a suicide scream near and saw a scout fly towards the titan.

"Wait!" You screamed but it was too late, you gasped when he was caught, captured by the titan’s enormous hand in mid-air, you swooped above that titan and cut its nape with you last might.

Your gear suddenly runs out of gas while you’re still in the air after slaying that titan. You let out a loud cry. "Wait, not yet!"

You cover your head with your hand as your body hits the ground. You stumbled, wincing from the pain, gasping for air as you looked up at the sky.

You close your eyes exhausted, admitting defeat and believing that this is your final end, an awful ending.

You can hear screaming, begs, and the scout’s desperation cry. After few moments, the surrounding becomes silence. You thought, you're the only one remaining here.

You remained still. Then you heard loud steps approaching you. With your eyes closed you suddenly remembered your family, your Aunt and Uncle.

You’re thinking they’d be really sad if they found out that you died here. It’s really true when you’re on the verge of dying, memories flood your mind.

"Y/N, live."

Suddenly a familiar voice echoed in your head. Right in time the titan was about to get you, you instinctively sway the shuttered blade in your hand and move yourself away from the titan. You get the creeps just looking at that titan.

You look around and see that this is the last titan, and you are the last scout left. You notice the gear after seeing the body of a scout in the distance. "It might still be working."

You quickly run towards it, grabbing it off from the dead scout as soon as you reach him. "Come one Y/N, faster." You nervously unbuckle it, while your attention fixed on the titan approaching you.

When you’ve successfully remove it, with trembling body you quickly put it on. And there are still blades available on this gear. Talk about lucky. You flew towards the titan after shooting the hook into its neck.

With the last resort in your grasp, you spin in mid-air and slice its nape just in time to lose you gas. Finally, it's dead.

You collapsed shortly after killing it, but before your body struck the ground, the only thing you knew was that the surrounding had finally been calm.

"Father, what are you going to do?" You wailed as you stare at him with gun in his hand. He holds your face and kissed your forehead.

He smiled before saying, "Y/N, live," and that was the last thing you heard from him before Aunt Shiela and Uncle Martin dragged you out of your home. "Father..."

Slowly opening your eyes with blurred vision, you see and unfamiliar white ceiling, it’s warm, and you wonder where you are. The last thing you remembered was fighting titans outside the walls.

So I survived, even though I thought I'm going to die.

You take a peek around the room when your vision gets clearer. You automatically sit up from your laying position after seeing Levi standing, and gazing out the window.

He notices you, and walks over to you. You gulp dryly, expecting him to chastise you for your actions.

"Captain, I..." You halted when you hear him say, "Finally you woke up." You were about to say something but the door harshly open.

And there you saw your Aunt and Uncle approaching, with worried face, but then you utterly gasp in horror when your Uncle approached Levi, gripping his collar and harshly push him against the wall.

"Uncle!" You fearfully gasp at what he did to Levi. It's Levi; he is no match to him. "We chose you to be his husband because you're strong, strong enough to protect her but what are you doing? You put her in danger." He said angrily to Levi still pinning him on the wall.

You move towards them with a heavy body and still dizzy, stopping Uncle Martin with your weak hands.

"Please, stop it. It's not his fault. It's mine, I chose to fight, please don't blame him." You said to him, he just looks at you and sigh in defeat.

"Let him go Martin." Aunt Shiela uttered as she pulled Uncle away from Levi. You were worried about what Levi might do to him when after attacking him out of nowhere. You’ve already been hated by him, and you don’t want to be hated any further.

Lying back on the bed, you whispered, "I'm sorry," to Levi apologizing instead. He only sighed as he stared at your pale complexion.

He was at a loss for words. You turn to look at your Uncle who is still mad as he says, "I don't want this to happen again."
