Eren <serious>: Don't even try it.
Eren took out his sizeable bloody hand in caution to Y/N, who was about to reach his left hand.
Y/N lowered his palm, gritting his teeth as he eyed the Jeagerists nearby, guarding Eren as he were royalty.
Eren: I want to talk, that is all.
Y/N: 'That is all?', Eren, you seriously have no idea what you are doing; he-
Mikasa had cut off Y/N's sentence by lowering her head.
Eren <demanding>: Sit.
Eren pointed at the chair next to Armin, who was shuddering.
Y/N complied; he carefully kept an eye on Eren, who was very calm.
Eren: You three know what I am about to do.
Mikasa: Eren! I-
Eren: Shut it.
Mikasa was taken back by Eren's remark, and she slumped back in her seat.
Eren: Y/N, I take it you know Zeke's location?
Y/N gritted his teeth harder.
Y/N abruptly stood from his seat, pointing his right finger at Eren.
The Jaegerists nearby aimed their rifles at Y/N, but Eren waved them down.
Y/N: You think this is right, Eren? This-
Eren: Is freedom. What I am about to do is revolution.
Y/N: Freedom? So you're telling me freedom is a world bent on fear?
Eren: I will lead Eldia to its future; I will tear down anybody who gets in my way.
Y/N: You-
Eren: Are insane? Tell me, how's Lieutenant sounding for you?
Y/N: I-
Eren: They picked you out of spite. That Lieutenant rank doesn't belong to you.
Mikasa trembled as Eren turned towards her with a look of pure hatred.
Eren began to chuckle, which shocked the people in the room.
Eren: So that's why-I've hated you.
Eren began to look down at the floor; Mikasa was on the verge of breaking down.
Eren: I don't like people. Who are so easily controlled. Like you.
Mikasa let out a small gasp; Armin had lunged out at Eren, tackling him to the ground.
Armin: How could you?! Mikasa's always been there for you!
Eren: You know why we never fought Armin?
Eren grabbed Armin's rib, throwing him to the wine shelf nearby.
Eren proceeded to beat up Armin while Y/N and Mikasa watched in horror.
Y/N: Stop it! Eren!
Eren: It was never a fair fight, Armin.
Armin, on the ground, coughed up blood, gasping for air.
Eren: Now, all of you, all of the Scouts, all of Eldia!
will watch the world fall.
