Unbreakable Bond {MoxieDov X RaraHaruko SNK}

[MoxieDov]

He let out a soft sigh as he heard a couple soldiers applaud him for his actions, simply nodding at the soldiers when they said his name. Levi blinked as he was raised up from the ground, several soldiers glancing up at the titan who was responsible for the small action. He turned his head to face Eren, somewhat confused by his actions. He watched the male's movements, oblivious to the thoughts that were running through the hazel haired male's mind.


Reiner remained still, most of the soldiers staring at his form in shock, awe, or purely fear. He turned his head down, taking a scan of all the males and females who gaped up at him. His eyes moved back to Eren's hand, watching it intently, just in case.


"Eren?" Levi questioned, reaching up and holding onto the large fingers as he shifted into a different position. "No, Eren, no." He repeated, a frown gracing his features as the male raised Annie to his mouth. Levi reached up, slicing off the tips of the fingers that were holding him in place, before attaching himself to the male's forearm. Another large hand reached over, taking hold of Eren's and angling it slightly away from his maw. The soldier glanced up at Reiner, who's eyes met his own. Levi swung over to Annie, slicing off the male's fingers to release the girl. The Armoured Titan released the other titan-shifter's wrist, catching Annie with his fingers to prevent her from running off. He moved and placed the blonde back into the grasps of the veterans, who had been watching the actions as well.


He landed on the male's shoulder, moving swiftly before the other decided to grab him. Levi moved onto the other's neck, beginning to cut out the soldier, steam hitting his face the moment he dragged the blades down. He managed to grasp onto Eren's arms, using the strength he had to pull him free of the fibres and tissues.

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

Once Annie had slipped from his grasp Eren screamed out in anger, not caring much that Levi had sliced his fingers off. He was a little preoccupied with the thought of vengeance that was clouding his judgment. He was about to take a swing at Levi as he bounded from his shoulder, but was suddenly stopped as his Titan was ripped away from his own skin. He stared deep into Levi's face as the male cut the sinews binding him to the mound of flesh, anger rising to his scorched cheeks. He flailed his arms, the man hoisting him from the steaming mush by the waiste. He yelled, kicking at the air as he was lifted from the desintigrating corpse. "Levi! What are you doing!?"


Tears of bitter rage had begun to forum along the male's eyelids, spilling over his marked face. "She killed Mikasa!" He yelled, ripping his body away from Levi and scuttling towards the cadets who held the female tightly by the arms.


Annie's silver gaze fell on Eren, a small mocking chuckle escaping her lips. "Oh don't be a baby Yeage--" her sentence was cut short by a fist colliding with her mouth. Green eyes wide he lunged for her again, but was intercepted by Jean, who took the blow to the side of the jaw, a tooth falling loose in his mouth. He spit the molar into Eren's face, a string of bloody spit dropping from Jean's chin.

 

[MoxieDov]

He let out a grunt as his palms pressed against the hot skin, stepping back once to successfully pull out the male's body. "Oi, oi!" He frowned slightly, moving his head back to avoid being hit in the face by the younger male's arms. "What the f*** do you think you're doing?!" Levi snapped back, leaping off the back of the steaming corpse and onto the leg of the female titan's body. He took notice of the liquid running down the other's face, letting out a soft sigh. He parted his lips to respond to the other's words, before the male rushed out of his arms. Levi speed-walked after the male, as Reiner took a couple of steps back from the giant bodies, lowering himself onto his knees.


The titan shut his eyes, letting out a final breathe of steam before the human inside began to fight his way out of the red tissues. He breathed in heavily, forcing his head through the only patch of non-plated skin. Reiner proceeded to tear out his human body from the red hot muscles of the titan, moving his hands and placing them by his sides to pull his lower half out. He eventually managed to free himself, almost falling backwards, before he grabbed onto a slab of hard shell-like flesh. He leaped down, back onto the group as the body that sat in-front of his rapidly began to disintegrate.


Levi chucked a handkerchief at Jean, clearly unamused by the red liquid that showed upon his face. He stood to the side of Eren, arms crossed over his chest as he stared hard at the blonde female. "She killed my squad as well. Petra, Oluo, Eld, Gunther...." He muttered, taking notice of Reiner as he climbed up onto the limp body as well. "But you can't just eat a valuable source of information." Levi added, his voice returning to it's usual tone.

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

Eren froze, remembering the human lives that had been taken because he'd chosen to run instead of fight. He put his hand on Levi's shoulder, a shadow crossing over his eyes. "I remember." He felt a tear fall from his cheek, a tear for his fallen comrades. "That's why she deserves to die."


Jean took the hankercheif, wiping the spittle from his face, and shoving it against the inside of his cheek to soak up the blood that had been quickly filling his mouth. "Plus who knows what you'd do after devouring a human." He said, voice muffled by the cotton pressed against his jaw. He folded his arms over his chest, a sigh escaping his lips. He blinked back tears that threatened to well up, but refused to cry over the loss of a comrade, even if he had a burning need for her.


"Mikasa was a great soldier, the least we can do is preserve her last wishes." He paused, stabbing a finger at Eren's chest "Which was to pry the secrets of the Titans from Annie because of you"


This made Eren's anger flare. "Are you trying to imply something Kirschtein?" He said hitting his hand away from his chest.


Jean's nostrils flared. "I'm implying, that none of this would have happened if you would have kept your pants on Yeager!" He screamed, eyes flicking towards Levi when he put the emphasis on 'pants'.


Eren's patience snapped, his hands flew up to Jean's neck as he tackled the man. He slammed the soldier's head against the ground, one hand flying up getting ready to slam his fist against the side of the man's face.


Annie watched in awe as the drama unfolded before her. Her body shaking with laughter at their stupidity. They thought they could pry information from her, they were dead wrong.

 

[MoxieDov]

He breathed in deeply, mind flashing back to moment he discovered his fallen squad. His eyes shifted to the male's hand, then to his face, somewhat knowing his next words. Levi simply nodded at the other, turning his head away as a tear rolled down the male's cheek. He shifted his weight onto his uninjured foot, standing at a slight slant. "I know she does, but still. She knows far more than we do about the titans." Levi responded, half agreeing with the statement. His eyes darted to the male as he spoke, a simply sigh of frustration leaving his lips moments later. His gaze returned to Annie, scanning her face with a cold glare. You better tell us all the information you know, before I lose my patience with your s***** self. His attention was drawn back to the two bickering males next to him.


His expression darkened noticeably as Jean's eyes set upon him, and remained still as Eren brought him to the ground. Go ahead. He stated mentally, glare burning into the light brown haired male. Though, to Levi's disappointment, Reiner stepped in and pulled Eren off the male. "Eren, this is no time to fight." He simply stated, arms remained hooked around the young soldier's torso. To satisfy himself, Levi lightly kicked Jean's side, before turning his head to face Annie.


He leaned his weight onto his injured foot for a moment, swiftly lifting his left leg and swinging it up, preforming one of his infamous kicks to the blonde's face. Levi brought his foot down, soldiers staring at him with mouths slightly agape. "This is just my opinion, but when it comes to teaching somebody discipline, I believe pain is the most effective way."

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

Jean wrapped his hands around the ferocious boy's arms trying to pry his fingers from his neck. His vision blurred, windpipe closing. Struggling for air he started ramming his knee into Eren's stomach as a fist flew at his face, slamming against his ear. He felt like his brain had hit the side of his skull, a ringing jumbling his thoughts.


Two large arms wrapped around Eren's waist, hoisting him off the poor soldier who had now passed out due to lack of oxygen and many blows to the head. The sudden jolt made Yeager's blood boil, his cheeks burning blood-red. "Get off!" He yelled, thrashing his arms and legs, trying to break away from the armored Titan's thick grip. He couldn't contain himself, hopped up on adrenalin and white hot rage. He tried to swing his head back to smash the man's face with his skull, but Reiner was obviously too smart to leave his face within the 'impact zone'.


After struggling for a few minutes, the titan-shifter finally gave up, slumping limply in Reiner's arms. With his head fallen back against the other's shoulder, he sighed. "Alright, I'm done. Just put me down now!" He growled staring at Levi.


The brawl that had broken out in front of her, made her go into a hystarical fit of laughter. Annie had leaned her have forward, blonde hair loose over her eyes. As it had just started to get amusing Yeager had been ripped from the soldier's body, thus ending the conflict. "Oh come on Reiner, have you gone soft?" She asked, her voice dripping with poisonous seduction.


Levi stepped towards her, she stared up at him with a mimicking bored expression. "I didn't see you and Yeager coming, at least not after Petra." She said, gaze shifting from levi to Eren. She opened her mouth once more, getting ready to say something even worse, but was cut short. Something hard collided with the side of her face, her cheek slamming between her teeth as she bit down. A chunk of soft flesh ripped off, blood spilling into her mouth. The force of the blow had even left a gash along her cheek, that had now begun to seep scarlet liquid. She filled the cavity at the bottom of her tongue with saliva mingled blood and spat a mouthful of disgusting copper smelling spittle directly into the Corpral's face. Her split lip quivering as she pulled the corners of her cheeks up in a disturbing smile. "That tickled."


Eren's glare deepened.


"Let me hurt her. I need to see her suffer." His pupils were pinpricks, the whites of his eyes showing intensely. He had a savage air about him, twisting at the corners of his lips. He began to struggle against Reiner's crushing grasp again.


Conny and another soldier grabbed Jean from under the arms, Sasha standing in front of him lightly slapping his face trying to wake him.


Dust danced between the strands of sunlight that sifted through the cracked window. The streams of golden rays danced across Armin s face, his eyelids slowly opening. His vision blurred, and refocused. He stared at Hange who had been changing Tegan's bandages. "Hange? What happened?"

 

[MoxieDov]

He leaned his head back, at a distance where the hazel haired male wouldn't be able to reach him. His face had taken enough blows already, and wouldn't want any more. "Eren, calm down. " Reiner instructed, taking a step away from the unconscious male, just in-case Eren managed to kick his form. He eventually let out a sigh as the male's struggles ceased, placing him back onto his feet, though remained to grasp tightly to him. The soldier turned his head to face the female as she spoke, a frown settling upon his features.


Anger boiled inside him as he heard the titan-shifter's words, eyes widening with rage. I'll f*** up your life so bad, you'll be begging to enter hell. He watched in satisfaction at the damage her caused to the blonde's face, shifting his weight back onto his good foot. Levi watched the female closely, arms crossed over his chest once more. Eyes darkened as he felt the filth come in contact with his face, gritting his teeth with hatred clear in his expression. Disgusting b****. He swiftly pulled out another handkerchief from his pocket, wiping off the spit from his face with a jagged action. Levi shoved it into his trouser pocket, making a note to take a full bath later on. "Shall I slice off your limbs as well? And see how much that tickles?" He asked, running the palm of his hands over the handles of his blades.


Reiner remained silent as he increased the grip he had around the male, preventing him from moving from the spot he had bidden him to.


She lay the young cadet upon the bed to the left of Armin, gently untying and removing the stained bandages. She had witnessed the short fight between the three titans, truly amazed by the actions that took place. Hange would have loved to have gotten a closer view, though under the orders of the commander, she remained in the medical bay. She had also watched Eren scoop up Levi into his palm, with total control, for a small while. Nevertheless, it was impressive as they just started training yesterday. At least he hasn't gotten himself killed. Hange pondered, a faint smile upon her face as she began wrap the clean bandages around Tegan's wounds and injuries. She turned her head towards Armin as he spoke, face lightening up that he had regained conciousness. "Oh, hello Armin. Well, a lot of things has happened in the last day." Hange started, tying off the end of the bandage, without the aid of her sight. She placed the roll of bandages down onto the bedside drawer, turning her body to face the blonde. "It'll take a small while to explain it all."

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

At the sound of Levi's threat, Eren slipped his arms up trying to fall through the man's arms by sucking in his stomach, this was found to be difficult. "Let go, Reiner!" He growled, his cheeks burning red at the close contact, and from anger. He wanted to rip her limbs off, to split you in half and chew her up slowly. He tried to force the thought of eating a human down in the depths of his mind, knowing if he started he wouldn't be able to stop, he could go mad. "Please, can I help Levi?" He asked, his voice low, teeth bearing.


Annie's eyes widened, knowing well enough that because she could regenerate, this would be a very long and exauhsting interrogation. "You can't get anything out of me, why don't you pry it out of big man?" She asked pointing to Reiner with her chin. She blinked at Eren, knowing if he was set loose right now, he'd try and change in order to eat her. She turned her head, looking away from everyone.


Conny and the other soldiers began walking towards the base, the sound of titans not far off. Sasha looked back at Levi, her eyes pleading. "Sir, we should get back before Titans see us. The commotion of the battle probably attracted them here."


Armin sighed, looking down at his feet. "What did I miss? How many lives were lost?" His heart began to beat quickly.

 

[MoxieDov]

Reiner refused to remove his grip from the male, despite his protests and shouts. Despite his irritation at the female, he couldn't let the male devour her, as who knows what could happen in that mind of his his after tasting the blood and flesh of a human.


His eyes drifted away from Annie for a moment, mind flashing back to the dream he had earlier today. Hands scrunching up into fists at the mere thought his fallen squad, knowing that he could kill the female in-front of him if he wasn't ordered to keep her alive. It didn't seem like Levi could get over the deaths of the four certain soldiers easily, especially Petra, even though they had been gone for a while already. Her determination to please him would often surprise him, as he thought that not many people actually liked him. Levi's eyes shifted to the male as his name was spoken, mind reeling back to the present time. "You can. Though, don't even think of transforming." He warned, a dark glint in his eyes hinting to his true purpose of why he was in-charge of Eren. To kill the titan-shifter if he lost control.


Reiner let out a light sigh, as the black haired male turned his head to face him. "Tell us all you know, unless you want to suffer the same fate as your friend here." Levi stated, receiving a small nod from the taller soldier. His arms slowly loosened their grip on Eren, having heard the captain's warning moments ago. He wouldn't defy the corporal's words.


He glanced up at the clouded sky, taking note of the steady footsteps of giants nearby. Levi glanced over at Sasha as she spoke, simply nodding at her statement. "We will, Braus." He responded, watching as the couple of soldiers who held Annie in place, lifted her off the ground and began to head towards the base. Levi breathed in, retaining a small distance from the blonde as he limped after the soldiers. Reiner strolled to the side of Levi, keeping an eye on his ankle, just in case he would trip.


Hange took a seat upon the stool in-between Tegan and Armin's beds, leaning forward onto her knees with her elbows. "Yesterday night, Eren was binded up in the basement, as his form threatened to shift. He was thrashing for the night, filled the dungeons with steam and the smell of blood and bile." She started, her glad expression vanishing moments after her words. "This morning...Mikasa was trying to break Annie out her cocoon...She...She succeeded." Hange paused, turning her gaze onto Armin's face before speaking once more. "Then, Annie...Annie k-killed Mikasa."

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

Once he felt Reiner's grip on his body loosen, the titan-shifter wriggled from his arms. He shot a glare in the man's direction, brushing his hand over the wrinkles in his shirt before turning to Levi who'd started off towards the base. He let his gaze follow the outline of the man's body before quickening his pace and shoving his head up under the Corpral's arm, letting him lean against him. He stared straight, mind full of to many things. His thoughts buzzed around in his head like flies over a carcass, mindless bodies slamming against the sides of his skull. The events of the past two days raced to his mind, body still trembling. He let himself look at Levi from the corner of his eyes, through eyelashes he soaked up the man's features. He thought of this man being troubled over fallen comrades, but his mind couldn't comprehend it. "It's been a long couple of days." He mumbled, sighing.


As they reached the base, he heard the shrill scream of Armin shaking the windows violently.


It took Armin a few moments, once Hange had finished, to process the words that had fallen from her lips. The thought of Mikasa dying made fear slash at his throat. Here he was, laying unconscious while his friends suffered under him. He let out a cry, reality sneaking in and stealing what little composure he had left. "I was useless! If I was awake I could have talked her out of it!" He said quietly trying to recoil from his outburst, large blue eyes staining with pain. He looked down at his torso, that was covered in dry gauze. "Where's Eren? He didn't eat Annie did he? She's the only valuable source of information we have left."

 

[MoxieDov]

He snapped his head towards the person who had moved his arm to hook round their shoulders, thinking it was a foolishly brave cadet for a moment. Levi remained silent as he realised who it was, resting a small portion of his weight against Eren's body as they walked. His mind failed to keep itself from thinking about his fantasy, curious on why his mind had brought that up now. His eyes darted up to the male's face for a moment, before swiftly turning his gaze away. I want to see the ocean one day. And a forest that looks like the one I dreamed of. He paused his line of thought for a moment, heart sinking at the thought of witnessing the sights on his own. Levi unintentionally rested his head against the side of Eren's shoulder, grey eyes set on the ground as they continued to advance towards the castle-like building. He looked up at the male as he spoke, his hot breathe barely falling upon the side of the male's neck as he sighed.


Levi blinked at the sudden sound as he pushed open the main doors, unable to tell who the source of the voice belonged to. The veterans carried Annie down into the dungeons, chaining her arms and legs to the wall. If the female would transform down there, she would simply crush herself to death, due to the cramped room. The somewhat shorter male headed towards the set of stairs that leaded down to the basement, as he watched Reiner descend down the stone steps moments before.


Her eyes filled with sympathy for the young cadet, non-pleased at the fact that she was the one to break it to him. Hange remained silent as he spoke, wondering if she should leave the male alone for the time being. "Eren was out in the plains, with Levi, Reiner and the rest of the cadets, intercepting Annie before she breached the Wall. No, I saw them bring Annie back in." Hange answered, blinking softly at the male's last words. "Actually...Reiner knows information as well. I saw him. He transformed into the Armoured Titan and helped Eren bring down Annie. The same titan who breached Wall Maria all those years ago."

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

Feeling Levi's head rest on his shoulder made his cheeks burn red, his close proximity making his heart jump. He placed his lips on top of the male's head missing his hair as he took in his sweet scent. He wondered what the soldier was thinking, a distance look in his eyes.


Armin's brow furrowed at the mentioning of the Armored Titan. His fingers gripped the sheets across his legs hard, knuckles turning white. He gritted his teeth staring at Hange. "Are you going to contain the Armored Titan as well?" He asked, crystal blue eyes searchingnfor an answer on the doctor's face. He'd been useless against the titans, always in the way, always injured. A feeling of worthlessness gripped him by the throat. He let his gaze fall to the window to his side, oblivious to the fact that Eren had tried to eat him the night before. He cocked his head to the side, but didn't say anything about it. He felt his heart fall in his stomach when the soldiers stumbled into the medical bay, Jean clutched tightly between Conny and someone else's arms. "What happened to Jean?" His voice raised, cracking because of his high pitched tone.


Conny looked up, perspiration falling from his chin, panting under the weight of the tall man.


"Eren beat the shit out of him. You've missed a lot."


Eren walked with Levi slowly towards the mess-hall, his heart in his throat threatening to sting his eyes with tears again. They continued to the basement stairs, adverting his eyes from Mikasa's covered body lying on one of the tables. He covered one hand over his mouth choaking back a fit of rage that was forcing itself through his veins. He began to get antsy, worry that he was going to be locked up sinking into his green eyes. "Reiner can't be trusted until he tells us everything he knows, we can't risk anything right now." He glanced ahead of them, eyes falling on the back of the Armored Titan's blonde hair a glare crossing his face. "Especially after all the lives that were lost, we barely have half the soldiers on their feet." He let his breath fall over the man's figure. "We can't afford anymore lost lives." Guilt settled in as he thought about Jean. The man, obviously, had an admiration for Mikasa. Her death must have brought about a need for a scape goat, that goat was Eren. More guilt slapped him hard in the chest, realizing she lost her life for him. She didn't deserve to die, and he didn't deserve the life she was suppose to keep.


Annie didn't struggle, her face was blank, a tight grip on her composure. She shifted silver eyes from one soldier to the other, searching for a way to strategize an escape. She glanced behind her shoulder staring at Reiner, eyes narrowed. She whipped her head forward, darkness settling around her. The closed space making her heart race. She knew she'd be down here for a long while. Her mind reeled over all the ways they could slice her open and watch her sew the pieces back together, anxiety rising. She let her eyes lock on Levi as the cadets pushed her against the wall, chaining her into place. With her arms bound above her head and her feet strapped to the floor she smiled, a shell of malevolence covering the pure fear she felt inside. "Wow Corporal, I didn't think you were into this kinky stuff."

 

[MoxieDov]

She moved her hands so her palms would face upwards, allowing her to place her chin upon them. Her eyes set on the window, which housed a view of the plains where the battle had taken place. Steam was still erupting from the corpses, though Reiner's had disintegrated much faster than the two others. Causing Hange to wonder what allowed the male to preform such action or if it was simply natural. Hange turned her gaze back to Armin, sitting up slightly before she answered. "Probably. I'm guessing they'll most likely interrogate Reiner and Annie before doing anything else." She responded, reaching up and stretching her arms thoroughly before moving off the stool at the sound of advancing footsteps. Her gaze fell upon the male as he entered the room, strolling towards them to take Jean from their grasp. "I'll take care of him. Thanks Conny." Hange stated, after listening to her response. She carefully took the male into her arms, carrying him over to a spare bed, opposite from Armin's own.


He straightened out his posture as they walked through the corridor. His eyes made their way onto the body on-top of the table, a white cloth covering the motionless form of Mikasa. She may have been a brat, but she didn't deserve to die. Levi glanced up at Eren's face, a hint of melancholy hitting his chest as he imagined the pain that the male must be going through. He turned his gaze back to the male in-front of them, who was steadily strolling. He simply nodded at the other's words, mind flashing to the options of punishment he could deploy on the two other titan-shifters if they were not to cooperate.


Reiner could almost feel the anger in Eren's look, unable to blame him for the feelings he had. After all, his sister was killed this morning.


"I would agree with that. And that's why if those two don't willingly tell us the information they know, hell will seem sublime after I'm finished with them." Levi stated, pure venom dripping from his tone, which was enough to almost send a shiver down Reiner's spine. Once they reached the room that they would be holding the blonde woman in, he watched simply as the fellow soldiers locked the chains, before making their way towards Reiner. The cadet allowed himself to escorted to Annie's left, the soldiers attaching shackles to his wrists, chaining him to the stone wall. He sat upon the ground, arms above his head as he glanced around the room. Levi took a step towards the female, eyes narrowing at her statement. "You're f****** disgusting, you know that, you piece of crap?" He responded, hands moving to hold onto the handles of his blades as the rest of the elites stood behind the corporal.

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

Armin nodded at her respondent, eyes pinned on the bloody mass of Jean that lay in a bed opposition his. He let his eyes wander, taking in the bruises that had begun to formnonnhis face. A tooth had been missing, and there was a large gash along the back of the male's head. He winced, fear gripping him. What could Jean have done that would cause the titan-shifter to bludgen him within inches of consciousness. Jean jolted awake, his hands snapping to Hange's neck for a british moment, startled. He released his grip as quickly as he'd gained it, fear swimming along his brow. "Sorry Hange, I thought you were Yeager for a moment." He let out a deep sigh m gaze locking with Armin s. "So you're awake" he said crossing his arms over his chest, letting the doctor clean up his wounds.


Seen watched carefully as the soldiers bound the other male titan to the wall, gaze crossing over Reiner's face. He snapped his attention to Annie as she spoke, a soft chuckle falling from his lips. "We're not playing games Annie." His stare was deadly, madness swimming under his eyelids.


The silver eyed woman mockingly gasped as Levi spoke, her knees brought together. She leaned forward, her chin pointed towards the ceiling. "Oh that hurt." Her voice dripping with sarcasm. "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but they'll heal and I'll devour you all." She sang, her voice drifting off the walls. Eren growled, but kept his distance, knowing well that he'd probably beat her to death if Levi wasn't here to cool him down.


"I can't wait to see your insides." He said, voice darkening.


He turned to Reiner, holding his arm out for the soldier at his side to use as leverage. "Reiner, why'd you break through Maria? What could you have possibly gained for this?" Confusion gripped his mind, how could a comrade be part of such a villainous operation. Why would they carry out orders that would harm humanity's chance at survival, and where were these orders coming from?

 

[MoxieDov]

She gently placed the male onto the piece of furniture, returning to her usual height to examine the other''s injuries. Unluckily, he's lost a tooth forever. Unlike Eren, who regrew it right after Levi kicked his out. Hange mentally stated, reaching for a damp yet clean cloth to clean up the gashes along the Jean's face. Her eyes widened at the sudden action, caught completely off guard by the movement. She would have pried Jean's hands off her if they remained for another second, though thankfully he released her. "No, it's fine. At least you're awake now." Hange responded, letting out a soft sigh of relief. She wrung out the wet cloth, before bringing it to the male's face and gently wiping off the crimson liquid that was shimmering in the light.


He didn't like it. He didn't like it at all. He didn't like how he was chained up to a particular spot, unable to do anything productive with his arms. This must have been how Eren felt when they captured him. Reiner pondered, shifting his legs to stretch them out, as they would begin to ache if he remained in the same position for a period of time.


The male let out a long sigh, irritation clear in the simple action. Can't wait to wipe that stupid grin of that pathetic face. "Oh, I know that. That's the reason why I'll enjoy it so much." Levi added, pulling out his left blade from it's holder. He raised the sword up, casually poking the sharp point against the female's right eye. "Remember the time when I blinded you in the forest? Because I'll be more than happy to do it many times more." He stated, dragging the tip against the blonde's cheek before moving his arm back to his side. Levi's gaze shifted to the male next to him, eyebrow raising at his statement. He placed his right hand upon the other's arm, in order to help himself stable his balance as they stood on the spot.


The tall soldier glanced up at the brown haired male as he spoke his name, an almost calm expression upon his face. "It was a stupid plan to show humanity the true power of the titans. How the walls were a stupid way of defence. They simply held humanity in a cage." Reiner answered, almost cringing at the actions he had preformed all those years ago.

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

Eren blinked slowly, his featuresnseasingnto give away any train of thought that crossed his mind. He dipped down, his face inches away from Reiner's, green eyes scanning the soldier's face for any sign of reluctance. His breath falling over the other's face he waited like that for a few moments. "It worked." He finally muttered, cocking his head to the side, peering through the man's pupils. "Who gave you the order to breech the Wall?" He placed a hand against the stone behind Reiner's head, knowing well that if either of the shifters tried to pry themselves out of their shackles, Eren easily could turn, crushing everyone in the room under his disfigured titan structure.


Annie's expression continued to darken. The feeling of the blade glide across her skin made shivers rake up the back of her neck. She smiled, opening her eyes wide so Levi could get a better shot. "So you get your sick kicks from torturing women. I should have guessed you were a sadist, what with the way you smacked Eren around at his trial." She giggled, her eyes shifting over to the male who was crouching closely over the armored Titan.


Jean leaned back, his eyes falling along the ceiling. He closed his eyes, folding his hands over his chest while Hange sutured him up. "They're probably interrogating the titans now. I wouldn't be surprised if they had to lock Eren up, he'll probably kill Annie before they can get anything out of her." His voice was dull, nonchelaunt.


Armin couldn't let himself lay here while the killer of his old friend lay under their feet, probably getting a punishment that was far less then she deserved. The small man ripped the sheets off of him, cringing at the pain that welled in his side. He lifted himself to his feet, almost stumbling over his foot in. He gritted his teeth, using a chair as leverage. His white pants were stained with brown poached of dried blood, the gauze over his stomach being the only form of clothing along his torso. The blind haired male ignored every attempt Jean had to get him to lay backbone bed. "I need to see Eren, I want to watch him slice her open." His voice was thick, and dark. Conny had run to his aid, sliding Armin s arm around his shoulder. He looked back at Hange, before helping the weak soldier out of the medical bay and down to the dungeon. He believed Armin deserved closure, and he deserved an expiation from the horse's mouth.

He remained still, keeping himself from flinching as the other grew closer. He kept himself calm and quiet, unlike the female next to him, who seemed to enjoy taunting the impatient corporal. Reiner decided to only speak when asked to, wanting to convince them that he wasn't a threat now. He simply nodded in response to Eren's words, taking a moment to glance over at Levi and what he was currently doing. The said male had one of his fellow elites behind him, muttering words to the male order to help Levi keep his professional air and prevent him from slicing apart the blonde. Reiner moved his gaze back to the male in-front of him, blinking at his question. "No one did." He responded, as quick as he could and with a steady tone.


Levi's eyes darkened at her taunt, pulling out his other weapon and releasing the grip on Eren's arm. "It's like you're asking to be sliced open. For Hange to pull out your organs and inspect them, one by one." He added, moving his right arm up and poking the female's eye with the point of his blade. Levi harshly dug the weapon into the blonde's eye, watching as red liquid splattered onto his weapon. He moved his arm once more, inserting it into Annie's other eye. A glint almost appeared in his eyes as he finally got what he had wanted, though his satisfaction swiftly ended as a male voice spoke up. "Levi, don't go round killing her yet." The soldier that stood behind him stated, his hand upon the male's shoulder. "Hm."


She switched to another cloth to dry off the dampness of the male's face, grabbing a ice pack that had been sitting in a bowl of ice. Hange applied the cool object onto Jean's face, targeting his bruises. She remained silent as the male spoke, solely concentrating on the task at hand. Her head rose, gaze shooting over to the blonde male across the room. Hange pushed down the ice pack with her fingers, though left a couple of seconds later, moving towards the injured cadet. "Armin, you really should rest. You've only just woken up." Hange stated, attempting to nudge the male towards his bed, only to receive the dark words in response. She let out a light sigh as she watched Armin's friend assist him, returning to Jean's side. "Make sure he doesn't do anything to drastic or hurt himself. Bring him back up when you two are done." Hange instructed, removing the cold item from the cadet's face for a moment, reaching for the bandages.

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

Conny nodded at Hange's orders, knowing that if Armin hurt himself it would be his responcability. The male quickened his pace, keeping quiet as they descended. Passing through the mess hall he watched as a group of cadets shifted Mikasa's body, moving her to the pile of other discarded bodies, lives lost the day before. Conny lifted his hand over Armin s eyes, trying to advert his gaze. With tears stinging the side of his face Armin pushed the cadet off him, a growl rising in his throat. "I can make it myself." He protested and continued down the rough stone steps, one hand propping himself up while he reached the clouded screams of agony erupting from Annie. He let his gaze fall across both titans chained to the wall. No one had heard him enter until he spoke. "Make her beg for mercy, Levi." He panted, learning against the wall. Conny faltering behind him.


Eren glanced behind him, surprise sunk in as Arlert sauntered in, his voice thick with hate. He shifted his gaze from Reiner to Annie, satisfaction settling in as her pain rung in their ears. He stood to his feet, it was obvious he had been the bronze of the operation, and not the brains. "Tell us everything you know." He said to both of the helpless titans.


Annie shook her head, blood seeping down her cheekbones, dripping into her mouth. Her eyes had begun to steam as her wounds regenerated. She laughed again, spitting her mouthful of blood at Levi's feet. "The titans will reign over humankind." She sneered, wincing as pain engulfed her eye sockets.


Armin walked over, his blue eyes clouded over with anger. He stared down at Reiner, his fingers wrapped into tight fists. "You're the reasons so many lives have been lost. Why would you infiltrated the military, knowing you'd be caught soon enough?" He leaned over, wincing as his wound reopened, blood soaking into the white fabric wrapped around his bare torso.

 

[MoxieDov]

He failed to turn round to face the owner of the voice, taking a guess on that it was the injured blonde. Wonder why Hange even allowed him down here. Levi scoffed, wiping off the liquid from his blade on the blonde female's arm. "She won't be able to even beg when I'm finished." He responded, forgetting the main reason why they had Annie chained up. "Levi, if she can't beg, she won't be able to answer our questions." The male close by him stated, only earning a sigh from the said male.


Reiner looked over to the two other males, somewhat confused and surprised at their presence. Though remained silent, still determined to prove he wasn't like the blonde female. Come on, Annie. You can't think to be like this forever. He let out a light sigh, staring at the boots of the titan shifter that stood in-front of him. "Just ask. I'll tell you if I know the answer." Reiner stated, moving his gaze towards Levi before back to the face of Eren.


He took a glance at the liquid that Annie spat out, raising his left arm once more as it on top of the toe of his boots. "We'll see about that." Levi responded, moving the tip of his blade down to the female's stomach. He dug the weapon straight through the girl's body, before shifting it side to side, generally creating a hole in her body. He moved the weapon out of Annie's figure, only to create several cuts across her already injured face.


The male turned his attention to the blonde cadet, bringing his right leg up to his chest as he spoke. His gaze fell onto the floor at the mention of the amount of lives he had taken, guilt hitting him in his chest. "I wasn't prepared to spend the rest of my life doing nothing. Military training would be useful." Reiner answered, meeting Armin's gaze as he moved closer.

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

Armin whipped his hand back, slamming his palm into the side of Reiner's face. A loud smack echoing off the walls. Blond hair fell across his cheeks, bringing out the angry blush forming along his forehead. "You don't get to call yourself a soldier." He spat, his small body quivering with rage. He felt like he'd been beaten, betrayed by the people he thought were his comrades. Annie, at first, was a good human to him, she was patient and didn't like to get caught in needless fighting. He now realized why that was, because slipping under the radar was more important then winning a fight.


Eren gripped Armin s shoulder, pulling him away from the armored titan. "Enough Armin, he know just about as much as we do. It's obvious he wasn't the brains of the operation." He glared at him "still it doesn't excuse him of what he's done."


A splash of hot blood splattered across their faces, Annie's cries biting deep into their eardrums. Pain gripped her insides, the cold knife slicing away at her skin. When the corporal twisted the blade in her stomach her head fell forward, blood spilling from her mouth as a scream billowed from her jaws. "I'm not squawking, Heichou" she yelled between clenched teeth. Her vision had come back, blood crusted around her eyes. Eren stepped forward into her line of vision, his jaw set. Her eyes grew wide as he stepped closer, green eyes locked on hers. She remembered how he hesitated to eat her during their battle inside of wall Rose, when their titans had begun to form together. "Annie, speak before I get hungry." He said, his sweet breath falling over her face. He licked his lips, testing her patience.

 

[MoxieDov]

He watched the male's actions, letting out a light sigh at what he had coming. Reiner closed his eyes a brief moment before the blonde'a hand collided with his face, his head moving to the side due to the impact. His cheek stung with pain, though he failed to say anything back to the male. He kept his head angled at the ground, breathing steadily to remain calm under the fury of the other males. Reiner parted his golden eyes, noticing that Armin's shadow was moved away from him. He listened to what the brown haired male said, outstretching his legs once more to achieve a comfier position.


Levi let out a cough for a mere moment, clearing his throat as he felt the warm blood fall upon his stoic yet somewhat satisfied face. The sound of the female's screams were pleasant to his ears, almost enough to bring a dark smirk to his face. He stepped back as the substance shot out her mouth, forcing the man behind him to back up as well. "You were, you brat." Levi corrected, slipping his blades back into their holders, crossing his arms over his chest for the time being.


Reiner couldn't help but glance over at Annie as she endured the pain, an unreadable expression in his eyes. You brought this upon yourself, Annie.


Levi watched closely as Eren approached the female, hands ready to grab onto his weapons if the blonde would try anything. His eyes shifted over to Armin for a brief moment, checking his injury before turning his attention back to the two in-front.

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

A growl escaped from between her pale lips, the eyes of the titan falling across her. She just simply turned her face away, blond hair now drenched in her own blood.


"Annie." Eren mused, lifting her chin so she was staring into his eyes. "Tell us what you know, and I won't let Levi gut you." His voice was soft now, alluring. She leaned into him, her face brurning red as his breath fell across her steaming cheeks. She opened her mouth to speak, but instead of speaking she rammed her teeth along her tongue, blood spilling from her mouth. Eren's eyes widened as the female began to shift, her body steadily growing in size. He grabbed Levi, gripping him hard to his chest as an explosion of firey hot steam shook the walls. Chains broke around Annie's arms, the female titan's head slamming through the first few floors, her legs extending in two different directions. Eren staggered, rubble from the ceiling crashing around them. He pulled the male with him quickly, his legs working so fast he felt they were going to start on fire. Just as he passed Armin he stretched out his arm to grasp the boy, but was intercepted by a large hand that slammed itself against Armin's body, blood squirting everywhere. "Armin!" He screamed, but kept going, knowing well that if he stopped Levi could be the next victim. With the shorter soldier tightly pressed against his body he ascended the stairs, Annie's figure shooting through the many floors, scattering soldiers about. The base began to rumble, large chunks of stone slicing deep into people's bodies, their bones being crushed under Annie's wrath. The girl grabbed Reiner from the wall, pulling the chains off his body. Even if he had spat out some information, he didn't know enough to be of any use to the Survey corps. She gripped him hard in her hands, shifting her body into a standing position, the large heavily built structure collapsing around her. Annie glanced at the destruction that had unfolded, a small pang of hurt welled in her chest. She swallowed the pain and shot off.


Eren had made it out of the base, just barely, tears and dirt swimming in his green eyes. How could she have managed... why did she? Annie was able to discard all forms of humanity with the blink of an eye, and it was obvious she didn't need a clear objective to shift. The boy released his grip on the corporal, his body looming over Levi as they lay on the grass. Eren's tears fell across the soldier's face, rage and anger shaking his whole body. "You should have let me kill her." He said, his green eyes staring deep into Levi's. Both hands lay on either side of the man's head, palms pressed into the wet grass.


The female titan had destroyed their base, and made off with the other valuble witness.

 

[MoxieDov]

He watched the two carefully, somewhat confused at what the male was doing. Levi remained silent for a couple more moments, before his expression darkened at the tone of the titan-shifter's voice. He reached for his blades, about to ram it through the both of them in irritation and fury. Or was it jealously? Nevertheless, he didn't have the chance to before his fellow elite gripped his wrists, pinning them to his hips to prevent him from doing anything. "Oi, you have three seconds to release me, before I skin you alive." Levi's stern voice warned, just as the soldier loosened his grip on the corporal, Annie made her move.


Reiner's eyes widened at the female's actions, complete shock upon his features. "Annie! What do you think you're doing?!" He exclaimed, beginning to pull on his chains, as the elites began to rush out the room and towards the stairs, pushing each other into the walls in their hurry.


Levi stepped back, about to sprint off and possibly get himself killed before the male grabbed him. He began to cough at the amount of steam, the sudden outburst of heat burning his pale skin. He managed to catch a glimpse of the blonde boy, about to force himself out Eren's arms to save Armin, once again. Levi's eyes widened as the hand crashed down onto the poor boy, realising that today must have been one of Eren's worst.


The burly soldier struggled against his shackles, attempting to rip them out the stone wall. His eyes widened at the sight of Armin's desmise, sadness hitting his mind. He may not have trusted me in the end. But he was still a friend to me. Reiner gritted his teeth in anger, pulling at the chains desperately.


As the building collapsed around him, his mind set on the amount of soldiers that would be lost in this "ambush". What would the Military Police do about this...If they see we can't contain Annie, will they take Eren? Where are we going to reside now? What about the cost of the equipment we lost? What if Annie breaches Wall Maria? Questions ran through Levi's mind, eyes still wide from the shock and Armin's death.


Reiner looked up at Annie as she grasped him in her fist, thinking that he would probably be eaten. He glanced at the rubble beneath him, anger boiling in his veins as he realised that many of his fellow cadets could have been crushed to death. He attempted to wriggle out of Annie's grip, before she ran off.


Levi fell back onto the ground, his breathe unsteady as he replayed the events that had just happened in his mind. His hands gripped tightly onto the strands of grass, disbelief clear in his mind before the male spoke. He met the other's gaze, his eyes as emotionless as ever. Levi remained silent, as well as still for a minute or so, before a thought hit his scattered mind. "Hange." He muttered, realising he didn't see the female run out. He pushed the male off of him, scrambling up onto his feet and making an agonizing run towards the pile of rubble. She would have been in the east wing, near the back. Levi noted, moving around the former building and heading towards the back of the pile. "Hange!" He exclaimed, glancing around the area for the said female. Levi began to grasp onto slabs of concrete, pushing them off in attempt to find the doctor. He heaved in heavy breathes, making it his mission to find Hange. Even though she would often get onto his nerves, the two superiors were extremely close. Levi grunted, shoving a log of wood off the pile and to his side. "...Levi...?" A weak voice whispered, somewhere near the spot the said male was. "Hange! Where the f*** are you?" He questioned, searching for the source of the voice. "I'm...over here..." The female's voice croaked out, to the front of where he had been focusing on. Levi climbed up onto the broken stone and wood, only to see the hand of Hange poking out from in-between a piece of wood of and concrete. She'll be under these pieces of concrete. He grabbed onto the heavy slab, beginning to push it off.

 

[-.-.Lucifer.-.-]

Eren felt the man shove against his body, he fell back, his hands gripping the ground hard as Levi raced towards the rubble. His eyes stinging with uncontrollable tears. "Levi!" He called out after the man before stumbling to his feet. He knew where the man was going, he was searching for the doctor. With a heavy heart, and broken will, Eren ran after the soldier. His bare feet scraping against jagged rocks and broken glass, his blood mingling with the blood of many fallen comrades. Green eyes locked onto the hand that struggled under a large slab of rock, crushing Hange under its wake. He joined Levi, using all his strength to shift the boulder. "Hold on Hange, we're going to get you out of there!" He cried, his fingers splitting as he struggled under the weight of the concrete slab. After moments of trying to free her, he gently nudged Levi out of the way and took a deep breath. He held his hand up, motioning for the corporal to stand back. Eren shoved his hand in his mouth, teeth tearing at his dirty flesh. Steam rose from his body as the Titan appeared, his steaming flesh creating a cloud over the base. Eren began picking away at the pile of broken wood and glass, his hand shifting discarded bodies. His eyes fell on Hange, and fear sunk deep into his throat. The titan's cheeks were stained with tears as he picked up the doctor, staring at her crushed legs.


The titan sat on the ground, his palm stretched out so Levi could seafront the doctor. Large pools of tears splashed onto the ground, little droplets of saltwater spraying over Hange's face. Hange, please don't die.





Annie continued on foot as the titan, Reiner clutched tightly in her fist. She couldn't devour him, amd she couldn't let him go. He was all she had left, the only other titan she knew, the only one who belonged with her. After a long while her pace slowed, eyes staring down at Reiner as he struggled in his grip.

 

[MoxieDov]

He cursed at himself for snapping his ankle and inflicting the wounds onto his hand, as this had lessened the amount of strength he had. He held back any tears, taking note of the fact that Eren had began to assist him in his task. You better not be dying. He gritted his teeth as he managed to push the heavy object to the right by a couple of centimetres. Levi glanced up as he was gently nudged, a glassy look in his eyes due to the tears that were building up. He slowly moved away from the rubble at the other's signal, stumbling a little due to his form. He shut his eyes, clasping his hands over his ears so they wouldn't hurt due to the loud explosion that would happen in the next couple of moments. Levi waited a couple of seconds, before parting his eyes to meet clouds of steam. He began to let out a series of coughs, his lungs failing to adjust to the sudden heat in the air.


Levi moved over to Eren as he pulled the female out of the pile of materials, eyes widening with horror. Shards of glass had pricked the doctor's flesh, blood seeping out of the many wounds in her body. Her clothes were filthy, the lenses in her goggles had shattered and pierced her once joyful eyes. No... Levi staggered over as the titan-shifter sat down, his hands gripping onto the side of the male's huge hand.


Reiner watched in helplessness as they advanced farther away from the once base of operations, worry setting into his mind as he failed to figure out what would happen next. The rest of the military will after us. They'll kill me. They'll think I'm exactly like Annie. He stared down at the ground, hands scrunching up into fists.


He reached over and placed his palm against the female's chest, over where her heart should be. He desperately searched for a heartbeat, only receiving a soft wince. "Ow...Levi...That hurts..." The doctor weakly stated, causing the corporal to jerk his hand away, as if it had touched fire. "Hange, what...What do I do?" The male asked, using all of his will power to prevent his composure from cracking. "Oh, you w-were always so...eager to kill me before..." Hange muttered, letting out a forced chuckle at her statement. Tears glistened in his dull eyes, refusing to believe the events that were happening. "Today's your...lucky day, L-Levi." She added, voice beginning to fade with every word she spoke. "No, Hange! You asshole! You can't die!" The male protested, a single tear rolling down his cheek as he pounded his fists against Eren's hand. "E-Eren...Take care of Levi...and yourself, would y-you?" She asked, her hands unable to move due to the her bones having been smashed. A faint smile rose to her face, the colour in her flesh beginning to drain away.


"H-Hange...No..." Levi murmured, his mind unable to compose his form. He fell to his knees, tears freely rolling down his face as he placed his hands down on the ground. The deaths of Petra, Oluo, Eld, Gunther, and Hange had finally managed to break his usual stoic façade, as salty liquid dripped onto the already damp ground. Levi began to sob, breathes coming out in ragged gasps as he sat up, his arms shakily snapping into a salute for his fallen comrade. He then brought his left hand round, grasping his right as he pressed both hands against his heart. For the first time in his life, Levi couldn't keep his emotionless act up any-more.
