I Love You... In Every Universe (AOT Alternative Universe)

28. Wall (Season 1 last Chapter)

'Annie, always so cynical...' The attacking Titan glared. 'Like every little thing around you was pointless. Nothing worth a second look.'

The Female Titan pulled up her arms, getting into a fighting stance.

"Every now and then, though, I could see through the act... Especially when you were showing off your fighting skills." Eren thought.

The attacking Titan stood in a fighting stance as well. 'Tell me, Annie... What are you even fighting for? What could possibly be worth all the lives of those people?'

The attacking Titan surged toward her, throwing the first punch. The Female Titan blocked using a crystallized elbow, the resulting force causing damage to the buildings around them.

His fist slipped downward and he stumbled forward slightly. She attempted a kick but he crossed his arms, blocking, before latching onto her leg. Picking her up, he threw her above a building behind him.

The Female Titan crashing back into a tall building, sliding down, leaning against it. The attacking Titan charged through the building between them, arms out, and she hastily moved out of the way.

Scouts watched the destruction from rooftops.

"What on Earth?"

"Squad Leader." Moblit said, "I hate to say it, but the city'll be debris and corpses even if we manage to catch her."

"We're doing this regardless," Hange replied. "Erwin's decision is final. Be ready to capture her."

Armin listened to them silently.

"Right."
.

Mikasa pushed off the ground, sitting up.

"Eren..."
.

"We didn't sign up for this." Hitch said, standing next to Marlo.

"Why are there Titans fighting in the streets?" Boris said.

"What's going on here?" Marlo said, confused.

'So, there is another one like Eren too.' Jean gritted his teeth. 'They are going to destroy this city.'
.

Nile and his subordinates stood surrounding Erwin, rifles aimed.

"Titans fighting each other?" Nile asked.

"Yes, sir." An MP replied.

"The city's collapsing like a house of cards. It's just it's horrifying. Casualties are mounting, both civilians and military."

Gritting his teeth, glaring furiously, Nile held up his rifle.

"Erwin! Was this your plan all along?"

"That's right." Erwin replied calmly. "I acted entirely on my own authority and I offer no excuses."

Nile lowered his weapon and grabbed Erwin by the collar.

"You knew what would happen if you executed such an operation within the city! You son of a bitch! Why? Why would you still do it?"

"For humanity... To lead us to victory " Erwin's replied.
.

A blonde-haired little girl walked down the street, tears pouring down her cheeks, eyes wide and dazed.
.

"Bullshit!" Nile said and aimed the rifle at Erwin once again. "You're nothing but a traitor! I should kill you right here and now! None of the higher-ups would even give a shit!"

Levi said nothing, only watching the exchange, arms crossed.

"Fine by me. However," Erwin said seriously, "you'll need to assume command."
