Porco: I'm bored
Sitting in a tent within the trenches all you and Porco can do is listen to screams and explosion outside
Porco: hey (y/n) go talk to Magath or something
(Y/n): wouldn't matter the new armored train would put the two of us out commission I might have armor but it ain't as naturally strong as Reiner's
Porco: don't bring that failure up
(Y/n): then what do you want to talk about?
Porco: I've been seeing more memories of my predecessor Ymir
(Y/n): and?
Porco: its just that you seemed weirdly interested in her any memory with you in it had you asking for her opinion
(Y/n): to me Ymir was the kind of person I wanted to be, she knew who she was and didn't let others change that even though it caused more trouble but she lived the life she wanted
Porco: she was a enemy of Marley it's sick you felt anything positive towards her
(Y/n): do you think the men across no man's land are monsters the ones shooting our allies right now?
Porco: this is war I don't hate them personally... I just have to fight them
(Y/n): then as someone living multiple life's through memories and experiencing war you should understand that I never hated anyone on the island personally
Porco stared at you silent his face showing something near to regret, what that was about you had no idea
As the silence became so heavy that neither of you wanted to break it a soldier rushed in out of breath
Soldier: the train has been destroy you are to rendezvous with the Cart and take the fort
Porco: what happened to the train?!
Soldier: warrior candidate Gabi destroyed it by herself!
(Y/n): she's in no man's land by herself!
Porco looking worried ran out the tent, blood splattering on the floor as lightning came through the entrance
(Y/n): what idiot would let her out there herself?
Soldier: it was her idea and Magath agreed
(Y/n): dammit
Walking out the tent you bite the tip of your thumb causing blood to bubble out
Being carful not to hit anyone you activate your transformation, the floor shrunk away as muscles bigger then a elephant cover you
As you begin to walk after Porco something didn't feel right causing you to stop for a second to look over your body
The chains covering your ankles and wrists were cracked and crumbling away
(Y/n)thoughts: that's never happened before
Reaching no man's land you watch a Gabi inher undergarments running back to the trenches with a injured Falco
(Y/n)thoughts: the hell did I miss why has Gabi stripped?
Ignoring your confusion you rush forward no longer needing to be careful as your weight and bouncing chains destroy everything they touch
creating disks on the end of your chains men scream as you whip them around like one does with a yoyo
Across the rocky landscape Pieck and Porco destroyed anything man made form the rails to the bunkers
Pieck hadn't been with you and Porco earlier was because she war amor that allowed four Soldiers to shoot machine guns from safety
You didn't dislike Pieck squad they had interesting ideas and opinions but when ever something happens between you and Pieck they are the first to scold you, especially right now as Pieck still hasn't spoken to you and the men's patience for a apology was getting fin
From the wall five cannons line up aiming for you even with your hardened skin being this close they would do some damage
Flicking your wrist to change the direction of the disks, your heart stops as every chain link explodes sending the disks off into the sky leaving you defenseless
Trying to have any sort of defence you throw your arms out where just two cannon balls blow them off while the others take a portion of your head and chest
Slumping to your knees you can't do anything but watch as the cannons prepare another round
(Y/n)thoughts: am I going to die?
A fog fills your head as everything slows down
??: (y/n) put me down!
??: (y/n) don't look!
??: (y/n) Is our friend we can't use him
A voice fills your ears including your titan ears making the voice so much louder it seemed so familiar
??: (y/n) I want you in my life
??: (y/n) that is so silly haha
The laughter was like music to your ears making the pain ease away
??: I'm sorry I'm such a awful person you saw me as a friend and I didn't
??: (y/n) live for yourself!!!!
(Y/n): Historia...
Historia: (y/n) I love you and that's all I need
(Y/n): I can't leave her yet I have to many mistakes to fix
Like a bullet shot from a machine gun you return to reality letting out a scream without your normal human voice instead you free one as wild and full of anger as a normal titan launching yourself forward ready to bite the men into pieces
Ripping one cannon off the wall with your teeth you go to spit the chunks out as projectiles except your sent flying backwards from a titan falling from the sky landing right on the men
(Y/n)thoughts: the hell?
Being free from cannon fire at the moment you focus on regenerating till you had enough strength to stand up
Inside the fort titans charged around eating any and all they could grab, Reiner had also arrived destroying any weaponry the titans hadn't landed on
Looking up you see a air ship hovering above just out of range from any attack other then from Zeke himself
Moving into the fort you begin crushing any resistance gathering on the ground while Reiner handles the wall
Something screams past your back as Reiner let's out a yell of pain, turning you see a second armored tank and Reiner missing a arm below his elbow
Screaming rushes the train before it can fire again tearing it off the tracks as he turns into a spin increasing his reach so much you had dodge
With everyone dead or to injured to fight back Reiner begins waving into the sky where a single soldier parachuted down
Exploding in golden light the beast titan Zeke lands within the center of the fort
Zeke: isnt war a terrible thing?
instantly he makes his way towards the ocean where he grabs cannon shells of the floor, moving into a pitching position he throws the shells at gathering navy ships
Zeke: huh?
The ships had fired towards Zeke, Marley never estimated they would advance fast enough to hit him
Rushing forward Reiner takes the blunt of the fire his armor ripping off his skin
(Y/n)thoughts: Marleys shield has finally been broken
As Reiner fell to the floor to injured to stay awake Zeke showers the ships in shells again sinking them and ending a four year long war making Marley the greatest power in the world once again
A few hours later Marley occupied the ocean city below the fort they just took
While other's celebrated and checked on the injured you sat on the docks looking at your bare wrist the scars as clear as always
(Y/n): why did my chains break?
In all your years as the Warhammer those chains had never chipped once, not even when Annie struck them with a hardened kick during training
You still had maybe less then two years to live your power shouldn't be fading yet most shifters only get a problem in their last week
(Y/n): if my power continues fading Willy might try taking me out
??: I won't let that happen
A calm voice filled with murderous intent spoke into your left ear, turning you find Linda wearing a Eldian military uniform
(Y/n): I'm glad you survived
Linda: I'd never go up and die you would be hopeless without me
(Y/n): the scary thing is you might be right
Linda: I'm always right when it comes to you
(Y/n): I've never understood your fixation on me you literally met me while I killed a bunch of monk's
Linda: and I still haven't perfected your heart ripping technique
(Y/n): medical knowledge and titan skin scalpels
Taking your shoes off you dip your feet in the ocean feeling the current between your toes, freeing your muscles from the strain you lay down on your back letting the sound of the sea calm you
(Y/n): have you researched the past titan holder?
Linda: how did you?
(Y/n): I'm a shifter knowing you you'd learn all you can to better understand me
Linda began laughing taking a seat next to you
Linda: which one do you want to know about?
(Y/n): the former beast titan he researched titans so he might have documented why my power acted up
Linda: hmm all I know about him is his titan was useless when fighting so he never left Marley
Closing your eyes you begin thinking of a strategy as loosing all your power would probably end with Eren eating you
Opening one eye at Linda you tell her what you concluded
(Y/n): I believe it is time for Dr Gravewing to return
Linda shot up like a happy puppy her mouth wide open in a smile and her body shacking, realising what she did Linda instantly calmed down
(Y/n): now I just need to find a barber who won't gossip
Sitting up you begin walking away letting Linda sit in her embarrassment
Heading inside the building the Warriors were using you find Pieck and Porco visiting Reiner though you didn't go inside the room instead you hide round the door
Porco: the two of you are such idiots and (y/n) won't accept medical treatment making him even dumber
Reiner: what happened to (y/n)?
Pieck: he got his arms and half his head blown off
Reiner: is he alright!
Porco: why do you care, you said he's just a guy who likes killing
Pieck: Reiner didn't mean it like that and you know it
Porco: it's all unspoken but (y/n) isn't truly one of us he has no loyalty to anyone but himself we could die and he won't shed a tear if he even can cry
The room went silent other than a few floor boards creaking
Reiner: I'm going to go check on candidates
The door swung open enough for Reiner to step through
Reiner: (y/!-
(Y/n): don't speak I only came to make sure you weren't dead
Walking down the hall towards the stairs you feel Reiner watching you go as Pieck and Porco rush out
Porco: shit he heard us
Pieck: this is why you don't talk crap about people
Porco: you didn't disagree with me
Reaching the stairs you head for your assigned room where you grab a pair of scissors
(Time skip)
The car shuddered in the night as it headed up hill
Sitting next to you two maids held blades in the air checking their craftsmanship
Driver: we've almost arrived Dr Gravewing
Maid1: master where are we going?
(Y/n): the Tyburs are holding a ball to announce something I was invited
Maid2: wouldn't Lady Linda be better to accompany you?
(Y/n): I have other plans for her
Reaching the mansion the car came to a stop where the driver opened the left hand door
Driver: we have arrived I shall have someone escort you
Your maids made their way outside waiting for you to follow
(Y/n): report
Maid1: I've seen multiple higher ups from other countries
Maid2: the ball hasn't started yet guests are still being let in
Nodding to the maids you make your way out the car allowing the summoned man to escort you to the door
Butler: entering known around the world Dr Gravewing
People turned to the stairs to catch a eye of you as your Maids guide you down the stairs their blades hidden even from you
Man: ah Doctor it's so good to see you again
(Y/n): Mr herald how is that leg I treated?
Mrherald: it's as good as new I haven't been able to move so well since being a young boy
He moved his glass of wine to the side where after barley resting for a second a familiar looking boy took it away
Girl: sir would you like a glass?
(Y/n): I don't drink
That wasn't actually true after years of practicing to handle poisons and drugs your regenerative abilities stripped you of the ability to get drunk not even a buzz, so you didn't waste alcohol trying something that won't happen
Girl: are you sure sir?
(Y/n): yes I'm sure
Looking down you find Gabi wearing some kind of workers outfit
(Y/n): oh I remember you, Gabi isn't it
It seems your Disguise of Dr Gravewing was working as Gabi had only sent you a few days ago before you left and cut your own hair
Gabi: yes sir I am Warrior candidate Gabi
Unnoticeable to anyone that didn't know her Gabi let out a creepy smile full of hidden intent
(Y/n)thoughts: she must be trying to use this to increase her chance of getting the armor
(Y/n): is that young boy Falco here I got a letter from him by hand of (y/n) Tybur
Gabi's face dropped even though she did her best to hide it
Gabi: he's in the back working the wine storage
Her tone was filled with annoyance causing you to feel bad as Gabi liked to get physical when upset meaning Falco won't be going home as he left
Maid1: sir we are blocking the other guests shall we move?
(Y/n): hmm yes your correct
Smilling at Gabi you begin heading for a window to the side of the room
(Y/n): Gabi if you want to impress the people here throw your net wide don't stick to certain ones
Nodding Gabi ran off the bottle of wine she held shaking
??: I'm amazed you risked such a visit
Moving to your side her hair tied up the ambassador of Hizuru stared into your eyes
(Y/n): hello Kiyomi Azumabito
Kiyomi: we need to talk in private
(Y/n): keep down here I'm Dr Gravewing and we've never met
Kiyomi: then let us go
(Y/n): give us some privacy
Maid1/2: yes sir
Kiyomi moved to one side of a piller forcing you to take up the other side making it nearly impossible to tell you were talking to eachother
Kiyomi: your disappearance caused a huge riot
(Y/n): which one this is the first time Dr Gravewing has been seen in public for months
Kiyomi: you know exactly what I'm talking about you think people didn't know you were on that farm
Her voice filled with anger as she tried to keep at barley a whisper
(Y/n): I don't belong to Paradise like some people I know they can't expect me to stay
Kiyomi: you know just as well as me that while you had no walls that farm was meant to be a prison
(Y/n): hey how's Mikasa I miss her attempts to kill me
Kiyomi began to sputter chocking on her drink
Kiyomi: how would I know that she's just a scout
(Y/n): I'm not a idiot I searched for the reason why you people would help the island also by knowing who I meant really gives you away
Kiyomi spun trying to get round the piller
(Y/n): people are looking calm down
She froze as you grinned watching her eyes dart around the room
Kiyomi: the rumors about you are true you really enjoy angering people
(Y/n): only the people I don't need to use
Kiyomi: so you are planning something do you have something to do with Erens disappearance?
(Y/n): Erens missing, I'm shocked he left the island he loves that place so much thought he'd die there
You had no idea who knew Eren's reasons so acting stupid was the best course of action
Kiyomi: who said he left the island?
A smugness entered her voice like she finally won against you
(Y/n): Mikasa would find Eren no matter where he hides on the island you forget I've known them for years by living eating and bathing with these people
Kiyomi: so you really don't know where Eren is
(Y/n): I don't now I need to go images and all that I'm sure you understand miss ambassador
Adjusting your tie you head off into the crowd mingling with the people from all over the world from famous military personnel to royalty, while they all praised you on your achievements and adventures that empty hunger returned sitting on your heart
It had been gone for so long you had never even noticed that it left but now it seemed worse then before
(Y/n)thoughts: when did it leave and why is it back now?
Silence rippled across the hall as Willy Tybur tapped his glass asking for attention that you gladly gave him
Willy: greetings everyone I do hope you're enjoying your time here tonight
Nods and raised glasses spread through the hall
Willy: I've brought you all here tonight for the upcoming festival which will be held in the Eldian internment zone, as you all know Eldians are hated all across the world and that very blood runs through my veins as well
(Y/n)thoughts: I always thought he hated being a Eldian but the emotion in his voice tells a different story
A feeling of regret bubbled its way up from your core making you feel queasy
(Y/n): I'm leaving now this was a waste of time
Maid1/2: understood sir
(Y/n)thoughts: why did I even come here all I need is to help Eren then things will be fine
Willy: Dr Gravewing is the festival upsetting to you?
Pausing at the top of the stairs you stare at Willy who's caused the entire room to look your way
(Y/n): I believe the festival is great idea
Willy: then can I ask that you stay to help discuss it with everyone here
(Y/n): Mr Tybur with all due respect ny time is to important for this
Murmurs jumped from one person to another like a swarm of crickets
(Y/n): I give my full support to this I have no hate towards Eldians infact they were my reason to study which has lead me here today
Willy: then why are you leaving if you support what's going on here?
Maid1: sir shall I force him to let you leave?
(Y/n): no I've got this
If you were gonna be forced into the center of attention you might as well help things go to plan, a grin of pure malice lifted your face as a speech bent towards your desires got written
Hey hope you enjoyed this I worked hard to think of what (y/n) can do that line's up with what he wants in the end I'm sure waiting all this time might have annoyed some of you readers so I apologise I don't really have a excuse for being so late I sorta kept getting distracted with random things and my College is starting up again next month which just feels weird
as always have a nice day see you next chapter
