A Second Chance (Marco x Fem Reader)

Chapter 53

A/N:

In this chapter I'll be referring to a song which I have set as the cover of this chapter above. Hopefully it works and you can listen to it by easily pressing play:)

It is an english translation/interpretation of Isabella's Lullaby from 'The Promised Neverland' that i found on youtube around the time i started this fic and i thought it went perfectly with my story and Y/N's backstory. You'll of course know more as you read the chapter, but please check out this cover by Aviance. It's beautiful<3

Also, here's some additional links/videos to a music box version as well as the cover in case you have any trouble playing the video above!:)

- https://youtu.be/nD5EmIwfzQA (music box) *

‼️Hopefully the videos will play properly, I've experienced in other fics that they sometimes just won't work. If it doesn't play you can try just searching "Isabella's lullaby music box" and "Isabella's lullaby (cover by aviance)" on YouTube:)

Of course you don't have to listen to any of them while reading the chapter, but it will inhance the experience!:) You'll know when to play what, but I can insert (*), when you're supposed to play the music box version and (**), when you're supposed to play the cover.

Enjoy the chapter!

"You guys get Armin and Sasha to the top of the wall. Hange and I have to go check up on something", you told the others, who gave you a puzzled look, but asked no further questions. Levi had taken Erwin's body with him into a house somewhere, to give him a proper resting place until you were able to properly move him and give him a burial fit for a commander.

Now that the overly distressing moment was over, your heart were heavy for your fallen Commander. He was one of the first who believed in your abilities and in many ways helped you get where you were today. But most importantly, all his decisions and orders leading people to theirs deaths aside, he was a kind man.

You and Hange jogged through town in silence; you knew she needed time to process the turn of events. The only thing you wanted to focus on at this point in time was if he was alive still.

The two of you finally reached the place of Bertholdt's initial transformation, and headed straight for the well.

"Moblit", you called out, peering down the deep, dimly lit hole, awaiting a response. After a couple of seconds you heard a little grunt; that was all you needed to hear before fastening your hook to the top, reeling yourself down to get to him.

*Flashback to Bertholdt's transformation*

"Y/N, I'm sor-"

Burning hot air overtook your senses as the glowing light intensified.

"Hange! Y/N!", Moblit screamed, and you felt someone push at your back, sending you falling down towards a well underneath you. You saw Hange below you, staring past you with a horrified expression aimed at what you could only imagine being Moblit.
