People of all ages run through the streets, trying to flee to safety inside Wall rose from Trost, where the wall had been kicked in. There were screams heard of many and babies crying and children looking for others. It was a horrifying sight to see.

"Please only take necessary belongings and stay calm!" I hear soldiers trying to calm pedestrians. Many people lined up outside the gates to Wall Rose. The hole was blocked by nets blocking any titans trying to get in. They would then be killed by then canons on top of the wall.

"You cadets have successfully graduated! You are now proper soldiers!" a voice came from the centre of the room. "I have high hopes for you in this operation!"

I had just finished refilling my gas tanks and renewing my blades. I turn around and see many others running around in a panic. I look through the corner of my eye to see the same ginger girl and tall boy I had seen earlier that day. It looked like they were telling each other love-vows or something.

I see Mikasa run in looking frantically around for something or someone. I look just in-front of her to see Eren and Armin, but something seemed off so I approached them. I started to get a clearer view of what was happening. He was scared. Shaking like crazy not being able to attach his gas tank to the refilling station.

"Are you okay Armin?!" I hear Eren ask him.

"I-I'm fine!" Armin responds in a shrieked tone. "I'll calm down soon enough! It's just we dont have the technology to quickly seal an 8 meter-high hole and we never never managed to unearth that big boulder near the front gate! The city will be as good as lost unless we seal that hole.

I walk up to Armin and hit him on the head to shut him up. "This isn't like the last time this happened. We wont give up until those titans have given in" everyone stares at me. "So pull yourself together. It wont be any better if you take to long."

"I'm sorry.." I hear him mutter. "I'm alright."

Just then as I help him refill his gas and blades, someone rushes in. "Come on we have got to go! The titans have gotten in!"

------------------------------------

"As practiced, you will now split into your squads and preform resupply, message relay and titan-clearing duties under command of the Garrison Regiment!" a man with a light brown beard said. "The Garrison Regiment's intercept squad will take over the vanguard led by the cadets! The Support Squad will take the middle guard and the Garrison Regiment's elite squads will take the rear guard. I have received word that the advance team was wiped out!" I watch as everyone's eyes opened. "The outer gate has been breached, and the titans have been allowed inside! In other words, the Armoured titan could possibly appear again and demolish the inner gate!"

"You've got to be kidding" some voices said.

"The vanguard is currently engaged with the enemy! This defence operation has but one objective: to defend Wall Rose until the citizens have evacuated! Be prepared to lay down your lives! Dismissed!"

"Sir!" we all saluted with a hand on our hands. Everyone started to rush everywhere. I walk towards the edge of the place just behind Eren and sit down nearby.

"Move!" I hear someone shout near me.

I look up to see Jean and Eren at each others necks again.

"What's wrong, Jean?"

""What's wrong?!" That's easy for you to say you suicidal maniac!" I start to get up and walk towards them. "You want to join the scouts! You're ready to be Titan food anytime! But I was headed for the interior tomorrow!"

"Hey. Calm down horse face." I say.

He turns around and holds me by my collar. "You expect me to calm down and accept death?!"

"No I don't. But think back." I reply to him. "Do you remember all the sweat and blood we went through to reach here?"

"So many times we came close to dying during those three years" Eren adds. "Some people did die but we survived!"

"We can also survive today if you put your mind to it. Lose focus and you might join those people who lost their lives." I say bluntly. "You can survive today, tomorrow and the rest of your life if you put your mind to it. You can even leave for the interior tomorrow." He looks down taking my words to heart. "Can you put me down now?" I ask as he still holds my collar.

He let's go and walks away, "come on Daz. Quit crying and let's go."

"R-right!" I hear a faint voice say.

I walk away leaving Eren with Mikasa.

I was in a squad with Reiner, Bertholdt, Annie and Marco. We were a good squad physically and possibly mentally.

We were near the middle but not the closest. We stood on the rooftops before any further instructions.

"I wonder how everyone else is doing" I ask to myself.

"They will be fine (y/n). Don't worry" Marco says putting a hand on my shoulder.

I turn around to Marco and put my hands on his shoulders, "please don't die if we go out there." I beg him. "Not any of you dare die." I turn around to the rest of them.

"You know we wouldn't give up that easy (y/n)." Reiner laughs.

"You guys head out. The squad in-front of you has been wiped out by the Titans. So go kill as many as you can before they get any closer!"

"Sir!" We salute the man.

We head out too where the other squad was supposed to be. There were Titans everywhere. I have seen Titans before but not in this crisis. It was a bit scary.

I manage to reach the first one which looked like a 6 meter. I latch the wires onto it and swerve around it, slashing its nape right open and then I slip away to the next one.

I have killed about 8 Titans at this point and haven't seen the others in a while. I decide to take a break and sit on one of the rooftops - taking caution of any nearby Titans.

I soon stand up to meet up with my squad again but something doesn't feel right. I get a feeling that something has happened and it's not good.

I walk to the edge of the roof and see people still trying to evacuate. "Jeez what is taking so long?" I sigh. I move to get a better look and see the cause.
