The otherside of the sea
Staring up at the bright blue sky with the shining blinding sunlight peering down at the land, a hawk could be seen flying high above.
"Hey..." A boy's voice croaked
He had ash-blond hair and hazel eyes as they followed the bird's movements. The boy was laying on the rocky ground, blood dripping down his forehead as he stared half-lidded at the sky and reached his hand out for it
"This is not place to be right now ..." His voice was hushed, his hand twitching slightly as around him were dead, what presumed to be, soldiers.
Each of them had gray armbands, but for the boy, his was different, as it was yellow. Bullets were flying at every corner and explosions shake the ground and were sounding off.
"So Fly away... you've got wings... use them." He stares at the bird, hand still reaching out until a figure suddenly looks down at him and shrieks.
"Falco!" It was a young man with short blond hair and hazel eyes as he was currently wearing a helmet
Falco, looks at the young man and mumbles. " brother? Why are you here?" Relieved was plastered on his brother's face as bullets were flying around like crazy. "Good! I'm glad your still able to talk!" He quickly removes his helmet and places it on Falco's head.
"Colt move!" A soldier screamed, running past him with a gun until he was suddenly shot and fell dead on the ground.
The young man, Colt, quickly hoisted his little brother on his back and holds his legs tightly. "I'll carry you back! Try to Hold on!" He states and like so, Falco wraps his arms around Colt's neck as his brother and a few soldiers were running away from bullets just mere inches away from them.
Two of the soldiers running with Colt were shot dead to the ground while the man continued running with his might, letting out a determined yell while Falco just stared mindlessly at the ground.
The bullets were gaining upon Colt as he quickly dives himself by the trenches and drops Falco, holding him close as two kids quickly rush their way over to them and shriek
"Falco!" A boy's voice shrieked as he and another kid pull Falco down first then Colt. Setting Colt down, three kids made their way to Falco's aid as a man pushes past a curtain and looks down to see Colt panting heavily with his hands on his knees. " report, what happened colt?" The man asked, waiting on Colt to catch his breath.
"The Eldian advance squad has been wiped out." He answers as they can hear rubble breaking from the distance
Colt slightly straightens himself, eyeing above the trenches. " they took a direct hit form an artillery shell And got blown to bits"
The Eldian unit at the front got blown away." He continues to pant heavily while the man stares down at him, still asking. "What of the trench?"
"It's hopeless! We can't dig any farther!"
"Oh? And who decided that? Are you trying to give me orders eldian?" The man hissed while a soldier behind him glared at Colt and exclaimed
"Insubordinate mutt! You watch your tongue with Commander Magath!" Colt glances at the man behind the Commander, breathing out
. "But sir...if things keep going like this..." He was still trying to take in air, desperation in his voice while the same three kids were surrounding Falco.
There was one boy and two girls, The boy had black hair and wore glasses, a girl with platinum hair and blue eyes, and another girl with brown hair and brown eyes. "Falco, you look like your drunk" the platinum hair girl Stated
" guess he hit his head pretty good." The brown-haired girl said, staring at Falco with furrowed brows. "How much of the last four years do you remember Falco? You know we're at war right?" The boy puzzled.
Falco looked between the three with confusion, creasing his brows as he looked around. "... who are you people ? Where am I?...?" He looked to his left.
" I don't get it...Wasn't I just... flying around with a couple of swords in my hand? whoosh!" He looks to his right
"Like that... and there were Titans too--" He suddenly then got water poured on himself, making him tense up at the cold liquid
"Okay, it sounds like we're gonna have to re explain the entire operation." The brown-haired girl stated as she was the one who poured the drink on him.
She went to close the tap whilst smirking. " just do your best to keep up Falco, here goes, this wars has dragged on For four years now but with this battle we can end it" She looks away from him and stares up at the trenches. " all we have to do is capture Fort Slava... Well, to be exact we have to destroy the mid east allied forces fleet in the harbour beneath it, once those ships are sunk, we'll have won this war for Marley, But unless Fort Slava Defends the high ground over looking the harbour, which means there's no attacking that fleet from land without control of the fort."
She looks back down to see the other girl and boy treating Falco's wounds as the brown-haired girl watch with her right knuckle on her hip. " so Why can't the Marley fleet just attack it from the sea?" Muttered the platinum girl as she used a cotton swap to clean around Falco's mouth.
The other boy, who was wrapping bandages around Falco's head, looks at the girl flabbergasted and shrieks. "Come on Zofia! Do you really think we can count on that navy to do a thing?! It took them four while years to establish any visage of control of the seas!" In a fit of rage, the boy pulls on Falco's bandages tightly, making Falco wince and tense up and yowl. "Ow! Ow, Ow! Ugh! Ow!"
The boy continued his rant, leaving poor Falco struggling for him to stop. " and this shouldn't really be a surprise , but they lost half their damn battle ships in the process, So of course they to chicken shit to do a single frickin thing until we've taken this massive death trap of a fortress for them! Screw ever single one of those stupid incompetent cowards!" He screams, shaking his head viciously until he felt a hard tap on his helmet "Udo." The brown-haired girl sighed, holding a bomb. " calm it down before you squeeze falco's head off."
Udo, blinks his eyes rapidly before looking down at Falco and let out an awkward laugh, letting Falco go as he somewhat relaxes. "Oh eh...! Sorry!" Falco let out a groan as he held his head, eyeing the brown-haired girl, and questioned her. "So what gives? Why'd they sent us to the front lines?" He wondered " it's not like four warrior candidates can make a difference"
The girl places her hands on her hips and continues her smirk. " first of all you can speak for yourself, second They want to judge us, their choosing their next warrior." Her smirk falls and her expression turns serious as she looks up at the sky.
"The time is almost here. Commander Magath chose the front lines for the location of our final test. He knows what's on the horizon. The person he chooses will be at the centre of the plan to concur paradis and retake our rightful queen, the successor of the Armored Titan!"
In the sky, an airship was flying its way over to the battlefield. Inside the ship, Reiner was sitting on a bench, fingers intertwined as he stared at the ground.
After so long he now had grown a small beard
Back in the trenches
bullets were slowly dying down as most of the Eldian soldiers were resting by the trenches.
Falco looks away from the girl and down at his dirty palms. "The Armored Titan..."
"I wonder which one of us it'll be..." The girl said, making Falco look to his right to see her sitting next to him and smirking at him.
He returns the amused smirk and leans close. "Shut up, no you don't, you've made it perfectly clear that you don't think any of us come close to you gabi" She gives him a light scoff and raised a brow " well yeah that's cause you don't" Falco's face falls and he slightly frowns while Zofia and Udo were looking through their bags.
" true. Gabi has us three sadly beat," Zofia stated, smiling to herself
"Not in terms of grades she doesn't" Udo added as he placed small cans in his bag.
"No they dont care about our grades udo!" The two look over at Gabi, who looked rather serious. " it's like I keep telling you, the difference between me and the three of you is that I'm prepared." Falco quirks a brow and gives an unamused look at her. "To shoulder the fate of us Eldians..." She went on, "and save our queen while purging that island of devils that Only made us suffer!" She narrowed her brows.
"I'll slaughter ever one of them, I'll win that war, and prove to the world they don't have to fear us anymore, that the only eldians left are good eldians " She looks away from the three and looks back down at the bombs she gathered and started tying them together "I won't be defeated, not until every one in the entire internment zone is set free!"
The three remain quiet, looking at the ground with sweat rolling down their faces until Falco looks back at Gabi hen at the bombs.
"Hey, just what are you doing with those?" He puzzled just as Gabi had finished tying them together
She looks over at him with a smile. "Looks cool, right?" She grins, letting out a small chuckle.
"It won't work, Commander Magath!" She looked over to see Commander Magath leaving the commanders hideout with the a gun Over his shoulder " if we try to take out the railroad tracks with nothing but inventory, We'll get mowed down by machine gun fire before we can do a thing" colt says following him "That trench is fully maned, it's an air tight defence, on top of that they have artillery supporting them from inside the fort, if we stay put, it's only a matter of time before shells start raining down on our heads"
Magath crouches turned half his body over at the blond, furrowing his brows as he questioned him. " it sound like you have an idea, go on"
Sweat rolls down Colt's forehead. "Let's use them, we need to unleash Jaw and Cart now." He answered
"Galliard and Pieck should be able to-do it, they can wipe out the enemies in trench
And the pile box in the blink of an eye"
"Wont work." Colt stared in shock at the Commander's words, who continue to speak
"They beat us if we play our cards wrong." The same soldier from before, name Koslow, was looking through a binocular before glancing over at Magath and informing him. "Commander Magath, It's coming through now." Magath looks over at him and stands up as Koslow hands him the binoculars and backs off.
Magath stands at Koslow's previous spot and looks through them while Colt looks between the two with confusion. "What's is sir?" Looking through the binoculars, Magath can see what looked like two tanks leaving the entrance of Fort Slava. "A train. An armored train." He explained. "equipped with two big guns in the front And two More in the back, their the allied forces new weapons-anti-Titan cannons. They fire 150mm armour piercing shells, capable of being down a Titan with a single shot" Colt stands up and looks over the trench "Even one of the nine." Magath finished, leaving Colt surprised and fearful.
"Maybe, but both of our Titans are incredibly fast sir. The odds of hitting in the neck are--"
"And if that happens?" The Commander interrupted, ripping his gaze away from the binoculars, and looked at Colt, who freezes at the question before answering.
"We'd lose a Warrior...and the power of yet another Titan, plus There no guarantee that we'd be able to reclaim that powers." Magath slightly nods.
"That's right. We'd be retreating our mistake we made when we tried to take the founding Titan nine years ago, we're two titans down, we need to protect the ones we have left
The lose of the colllasal and female Titan caused a perceived laps in Marley's strength, it's sparked this war to lay the Paradis Operation." He pauses, looking back over the trench to see the armored train moving along the tracks then back at Colt
. "What is it that makes our motherland the great empire it is today?" Colt purses his lips. "The Power of the Titans."
"Correct. And Our nation won't last if we keep losing 'em away." The Commander replied, furrowing his brows. "The Power of Marley's Titans are absolute, that is a fact that must never change." He looks over his shoulder and at Koslow, stating. "Line up the eldians, have them prepare for a charge!"
"Yes, sir!" Koslow turns around and runs off while Colt looks at the Commander again and tries to object. "Please reconsider, If we charge--"
"What's the matter, Eldian?" Magath spat, staring straight into Colt's eyes. "Are you not loyal warriors who've swore to fight and die for Marley?" The blond gasped a bit at his words.
"This is a chance for the 800 Eldians here..." The Commander continued, looking at the tired and fearful soldiers. "...to atone for the past and Serv our motherland with honor." The soldiers were all shaking in fear, holding their guns close and silently praying to let them live through this war.
Koslow walks down the aisle of soldiers, his arms behind his back before bringing his right hand out to the group and ordered. "Oi! Soldiers at the ready! Prepare to attack!" Despite not wanting to, the soldiers were quick on their feet and brought their guns nearly pressed against their chest, still scared out of their minds.
One of them didn't seem they wanted to get up as a soldier was ushering him to. Koslow paid no mind, putting his right arm back behind him as he continued to walk down the line.
"Eldians! Your target is the enemy railroad track! It's well defended but we must succeed at all cost! Guard the suicide squad! They charge the enemy bunker and disable their machine gun!" He glanced at the suicide squad, who were covered by bombs, were shaking hard before returning on staring ahead
"You may be spawn of the devil, but through your actions here you can cleanse yourself of that disgrace! This is your Chance to honour and be honoured in return by our motherland!" He turns to them and raises his right arm in the air. "Prepare to prove worth!"
"Yes, sir!" The soldiers replied, standing tall. Back with Magath, he looks at Colt then over at the four kids, stating firmly.
"You Warrior candidates will stand by here. If I have to trade 800-Eldian soldier to take out those tracks so be it, but the tracks must be destroyed, As long as that armored train is patrolling the forts perimeter ," He points to the sky, "neither beast, nor Armored
Can be called upon to finish the job."
Colt narrows his gaze and frowns, looking to the side. " yeah...I know But..." He then felt a fist lightly touch his chest, making him look back to see it was the Commanders.
"Look Colt." Magath began, " your the chosen successor of the Beast Titan, you need to take a page from Zeke's book and learn what it takes to lead.." The blond just looks away from him as Falco stares at his brother with creased brows.
Magath removes his fist from Colt's chest and climbs back up on the step stool and looks through the binoculars. It seems that the armored train was getting closer and closer to the trenches. "Perfect. We can destroy the tracks and the train."
" why don't you let me handle this sir!" Looking down, he saw Gabi approach and stare up at him. "Huh?" Gabi then grins and holds up the tied bombs to him. "Ta-da! If you'll let me, Im sure that I can take out that armored train myself!" Colt and the others stare at her with wide eyes and mouths dropped, especially Falco's, as he went to protest. "Hey, wait!"
"Your too valuable an asset, this country has spent a lot of money to train you" Magath uttered. "Denied."
Gabi's smile falters and she slightly pouts. She stares down at her creation and speaks softly. "It's true... Im super valuable, especially compared to these three " She hugs the bombs close.
"Honestly you Might never find a Warrior
Candidate who's as talented as me." She then smirks. "Even then, they won't be this cute." Udo, Zofia, and Falco sweatdrop while fighting the urge to roll their eyes.
Gabi looks back up at Magath and pleads. "But if I pull this off, you can take out that train without needing to sacrifice that
800 man unit!" The Commander steps down from the stool and rose a brow. "And if you fail?" Gabi's smirk reappears.
"Then You'll lose your most promising candidate as well as a bundle seven hand grenades." Magath just stares down at her for a moment, making the girl's smile drop and frown. " that said sir if you really think I'm more valuable than 800 Eldian inventory men." Her voice wavered as she held the grenades close to her chest again. "I get it, to think that you'd sacrifice that many soldiers just for me, I knew that you loved me deep down but I didn't know how deep--"
"Fine," Magath grumbled, looking away from her and closed his eyes. "Go ahead." Gabi's eyes brighten up as she nods while Falco's eyes had shrunk and were struck with fear. "No, gabi--"
"Mark my words! Ill destroy that train and prove no warrior candidate deserves to inherit the Armored more than me and save our queen!" She exclaimed, her cocky expression turned into a serious one.
She gently places the grenades down and went to quickly remove her uniform, making Falco flinch at the sudden movement, blush, and looked away shamelessly as Gabi was left with her plain top.
"What are you doing?" The Commander asked, genuinely confused as he watched Gabi soon remove her uniform pants. "My plan won't work if I'm in uniform sir..." She holds her clothes in a ball and looks back up at the man. "...with your premission, I'd like to remove my armband as well." He stares at her for a moment and replies.
"Granted." Falco, Udo, and Zofia all stare at her with worry, thinking she was insane while hoping this plan would work.
In the fort
,the enemy soldiers were on standby, waiting for movement from the Eldian soldiers as the armored train continued its way on moving on the tracks.
Two soldiers, who were on watch, were looking through their gun scopes, catching anything that caught their eye.
One of the soldiers sees something from the distance and becomes alarmed. "Hey, there someone's coming look there." He tells the soldier beside him.
The other soldier glances at him then look down at his scope to see that it was Gabi, and it appeared she was surrendering
The soldier's eyebrows were raised. "It's a woman. Girl, really. I think she's trying to surrender."
"Yeah right. Don't trust that she could be Eldian." The first soldier retorts, sweat rolling down his forehead
"She's limping, as if she's been Injured or something"The second soldier informed, her foot was fine, what was really going was that gabi had tied up grenades that were wrapped around her right ankle " maybe her foots been shackled"
"Who cares, she probably is eldian" The first soldier repeated. "Shoot her before she transforms."
" I don't shoot kids, you've got the gun if you want to shot her do it"
The first soldier sighs, rolling his eyes at him before focusing on Gabi "Shit."
He brings his gun close, finger on the trigger until he lowers it, and watches Gabi lose her footing and fall on the ground, dust flying everywhere from the small impact.
The two soldier's guards were lowered and both were filled with shock. "What the--?" As they stared at her laying figure, Gabi was secretly slipped her finger round the rope around her ankle slid it off, and stared at the armored train approaching, careful to make sure they weren't catching on to what she was doing
"Not yet..." She muttered, watching the train grow closer. "Wait for it...." Her grip on the rope tightens, anticipation filling within her as it grew close. "Not yet...." From their base, the two soldiers just continue to stare at her, not sure what to do.
"She's just lying there." The first soldier muttered, brows furrowed. "Who cares? Shoot her!" The second exclaimed, looking over at him.
The guards' hesitation was their biggest fault, as the armored train was now closer than before, making Gabi initiate in action.
She glares at the train and quickly stands, grabbing onto the tied grenades with both hands, and screamed. "Here goes nothing!" She Pulling the pins off, she threw the grenades with all her might while the two soldiers' mouths drop and their heart skips a beat.
The grenades land right in front of the armored train, rolling on the track for a bit until it got caught under the wheel, causing it to explode.
The armored train gets thrown off the track, as it landed on the base where the two soldiers were, and ending them instantly. The Eldian soldiers' eyes widen at the success Gabi pulled. "She pulled it off!" Koslow shrieks as Udo, Zofia, Falco, Colt, and Magath stare in awe.
The Commander quickly rips his gaze away from the scene and screams over his shoulder. "Galliard! Your up!" Gabi, on the other hand, was celebrating her success.
She let out a cheerful scream and jumped in the air before turning around and started running back to the trenches while laughing.
Unaware for her though, one of the soldiers had survived the armored train's pummeling on the base and staggered himself over to the prompted gun. "Dammit! You cowardly bastards!" He groaned, grabbing the gun's handles.
"This is exactly why ..." Gabi stops her laughter and looks over her shoulder, eyes widening when she can faintly see the soldier ready to fire. "...we should kill every one of you sight!" He then pulls the trigger, heavy bullets were sent zooming over to Gabi as she tried to push herself to run faster.
Scared out of his mind, Falco nearly climbs himself over the trenches and screams her name.
"Gabi!" He pushes himself up and starts running toward her as Colt shoots his head over to his brother and tries to stop him. "Hold on, falco!" He ignored his brother and continued to make his way over to her
Seeing a ditch close to her, Gabi speeds her pace up and dives her way over, covering her head from the incoming bullets as Falco finally catches up to her and dives toward her, hand reaching out to her.
Suddenly, a big hand protects the two as Falco brings Gabi close and fall into the ditch.
Looking up, they gasp when they see one of the Ten Titans, the Jaw Titan, protecting them with its body.
The Titan's appearance sorta resembled a lion. The hair was covering its head and chin as it had sharp claws and an armored like skull. The Jaw Titan looks down at the two, whose mouths were dropped. Gabi grinned, pulling herself up from the ground.
"Galliand thank you!" She then looks at Falco, her smile dropping as she blinked at him. "Huh?" The two just stare at each other for a moment until the Jaw Titan suddenly lunged away from the two and over at the Fort as dirt got all over the two.
The Jaw Titan easily dodged the fast bullets as the soldier screamed in frustration.
Once the Jaw Titan gets close, it jumps in the air and slashes down at the base, destroying the gun and ending the soldier inside before moving on.
On the airship, was listening through the rotary phone, nodding for a bit before lowering the phone and turning his head over at Zeke and Reiner
. "Our forces have disabled the armored train. We'll can now commence the airborne assault." In the air ship there were loads of people wearing straitjackets, all hanging on a hook and rope on the back of their parachutes as they stared at the ground.
They looked to be in a drug-like state. "
The plan at this point is straight forward." The soldier continued as Zeke, who was also in the ship, staring out one of the windows.
"Zeke will be our spear..." He turns his head over to stare at Reiner, who was now standing and looking determined. "and Reiner will be our shield."
Back at the ground, the Eldian soldiers were now back on the battlefield, letting out screams as they ran with their guns in hand.
the Mid-East soldiers continued to fire their big guns from their base and launching missiles in the air.
As the Eldian soldiers continue to run, they slowly start to fall to the ground dead and form piles of corpses.
One soldier climbed himself over a pile of his dead comrades and stared at the battle in fear.
His teeth were clenched as he looked over to his left to see the Jaw Titan's red eyes staring down at a few of some Mid-East soldiers as it chased after them.
The enemy soldiers scream as the Jaw Titan had finally reached the Mid-East soldier's trenches.
He swiped at the soldier, killing them, then looked over to see me staring at it with fear.
It lunges at them, swiping its hand at it and ending them before making its way over to the train tracks.
It leans down and bites the railroad before ripping it off the ground, The Mid-East soldiers continue to shoot their ammunition from their trenches, but a big shadow makes them freeze and look over to see it was the Cart Titan with gear on itself.
They gasp as bullets came flying down at the Cart Titan's gear.
The Cart Titan was the same Titan that went to defeat the Scouts and recover the Founding Titan and the Defender Titan, but their plan failed and they had to flee back to Marley.
The Cart Titan looks down at a base, noticing two fearful enemy soldiers before pushing its head in the entrance and flipping it over with ease, giving access for the Eldian soldiers to come in and shot the Mid-East soldiers dead.
The battle continued to rage on with many screams and gunshots being heard, along with two Titan Shifters causing havoc. At the Eldian trenches, Gabi was currently putting her uniform on while Udo and Zofia were aiding Koslow. " that really hurts damn it! I'm a Marleyan so why am I getting shot at!" He groaned as Udo was bandaging his arm.
Gabi then looks to her right, seeing Falco suddenly jump down from the trench then seeing him grab onto a Mid-East soldier and dragged him down. " What are you doing, Falco?" She questioned
"Come on, you know" Falco Groaned as he placed the soldier's body against the wooden wall and began unbuttoning his uniform top. "This guys fine, he's in no shape to fight anymore." He turns to his left. "Udo, can you spear a tourniquet."
"Here." Udo hands him the item as Falco went back to searching the soldier. "Dumb brat," Koslow grumbled, looking at his bandaged arm. "Should have just finished." After buttoning her top on, Gabi looks at Falco and frowns. "Is that supposed to be your big selling point Falco?" She gives him a unamused, judgeful look.
"You wanna outshine the girl who just won this battle for Marley, By being a stickler for the laws of war, this won't help you win the armoured."
"I don't care" He muttered, not glancing at her as Gabi continued to frown. She slowly looked away and down at the ground, sighing. "Your such a Weirdo." As Falco continued tending the soldier, the soldier suddenly started mumbling something.
He stops and perks up. "He's saying something." He said, eyebrows raised as Udo looked over at the soldier.
He then purses his lips and looks away. Falco turns to the boy, a smile on his face. " can you Interpet, tell him that I managed to stop his bleeding so he doesn't need to be afraid--"
"Don't touch me. I'll be tainted. You filthy devil he says,". The boy muttered, leaving Falco silent while Koslow, on the other hand, couldn't help but let out loud laughs.
A bright flare was then shot into the air, making the Cart Titan and the Jaw Titan look at it while the Eldian soldiers were hurrying their way back to the trenches.
"Retreat!"
"Hurry up!"
"Get away from the fort!"
"Don't get caught in it!"
Various soldiers screamed as they jumped down to hide, the four candidates all stare up at the sky in awe, seeing the airship over Fort Slava as Gabi mumbled. "It's begining."
The group watches the people strapped up fall off the ship, their parachutes immediately opening as they started to descending
The soldiers, who were on the walls of Fort Slava, look up with wonder and confusion, stopping whatever they were doing and watched.
The strapped up people continued to fall off the ship and glide down until the very last one was out.
Reiner and Zeke stare at their flying forms as Reiner looks down at his right hand and gazes at the sharp knife he held.
He and Zeke had prepared themselves, both wearing parachutes with goggles on their foreheads.
Zeke, with his goggles on, makes his way over to the drop off where the drugged up people were falling.
He cleared his throat, took in a deep breath, and let out a scream, causing the strapped people to suddenly have yellow electricity surround them.
Udo looked away from the scene, Zofia just stared, Colt watched with angry tears edging his eyes, and Falco and Gabi watch with sadness.
Once the electricity was gone from them, out pop the vicious Titans. They started falling fast to the ground, not giving enough time for the Mid-East soldiers to run off as some of the Titan's heavyweights had crashed onto them. Soon enough, Fort Slava was being crushed by nearly all the Titans, destroying the buildings and small portions of the walls as a big dust cloud surrounded the area.
The enemy soldiers stare with wide eyes, fear-stricken and frozen in their spot. Then suddenly, a Titan's hand grabs onto the wall and pulls itself up, looking down at three soldiers as they shriek with fear and remained frozen.
Soon enough, they finally realized the situation they were in and ran off, but the Titan quickly snatches onto a soldier and brought it close to its mouth. "No! Stop!" The soldier screamed right before the Titan chomped down on half his body.
Soon enough, the soldiers were being terrorized by the Titans, slowly being eaten one by one.
The Eldian soldiers watch from their trenches, all with fear and sadness. "It's true...you people really are devils..." Koslow snarled, standing up and watching the Titans try to climb over Fort Slava.
" the Marleyans in defended from, were prayed upon in the same way. By eldians like you." The four kid candidates just remain quiet, all staring at the Titan's.
The Titans continued to devour every enemy soldier they see as he scream in fright.
"Fire!" A cannon suddenly hits a Titan's nape, causing the Titan that was holding a soldier to let go and fall to the ground, lifeless. Soon enough, more and more cannons continue to fire off on the walls, either hitting or missing the Titans.
Reiner had eventually jumped off the airship and was now gliding down with his parachute open. He stared at the atrocity from below, muttering to himself.
"The kinetic bombardment was effective, but due to the height they were dropped from, probably half the Titans deployed were killed on impact." He then glances at the cannons and the soldiers.
" the enemy still had anti-Titan cannons." He then began to count. "Twenty-eight... Twenty-nine...And now I know how many and where they are... But still..." He removes his goggles and stares at the walls longingly, remembering Paradis' walls and the soldiers, and the for with red hair standing next to him....
"Another wall...." He narrows his gaze at them and brings the blade to his palm. "I'm sick and tired... of all these walls." Slicing his hand, he immediately starts transforming into the Armored Titan, and once transformed, his Titan self starts to fall even faster, and soon enough, Reiner quickly grabs onto the wall from preventing harm on himself and lands safely while still destroying it.
The Mid-East soldiers quickly hurry over to their cannons and push them in the direction of the Armored Titan, shrieking. "It's the Armored! Kill it!" Getting in a stance, the Armored Titan then runs beside the wall in much speed, raising his hand, and dragging it against the wall, and eliminating soldiers and the remaining cannons.
"Fire!" On the other side, a group of soldiers fires four cannons at Reiner, completely catching him off guard as he quickly stopped running and shielded his face with his arms.
The cannons then pummeled into the Armored Titan's.
One of the cannons had pummeled straight into the Armored Titan's bone collar, making Reiner's eyes widen. 'New Anti-Titan shells, they can even Pierce my armour...' He thought when suddenly...
BANG!
Another cannon shoots out and aims for the Armored Titan's head, but instead, it decapitated his left off.
The impact caused him to fall and hit his back against the wall as his eyes widen at his flying decapitated arm. 'What the--?! What hit me?!' He then shoots his head over to his right, eyes landing to see another armored train moving up on the tracks. 'An armored train? There's another?'
BANG!!
Another cannon gets shot out, but the Armored Titan quickly dives away, rolls on the ground, and goes to charge his way over at the armored train.
As he gets close, another cannon from the train gets shot out at him. Reiner quickly uses his damaged arm to protect himself, which causes his entire arm to fly off and only leave him with his shoulder.
He continues to press on and soon enough, he charges at the armored train with his might and destroys the railroad, and causes the armored train to fly off the tracks.
The Armored Titan skids away from the damaged train and slowly stands up as his left arm was currently in the process of healing
Unbeknownst to him though, he somehow manages to miss a cannon on the wall as it was pointed right on his nape.
Reiner's heart skipped a beat when he finally noticed and cursed to himself. 'Shit!' He quickly covers his face with his free arm, expecting the get hit. "Fire--" But instead, the cannon and the soldiers were destroyed.
Looking up, he saw it was the other Jaw Titan that had eliminated the enemy, The Jaw Titan and he make eye contact. 'Galliard!' But the fight wasn't over yet, there was still more soldiers and cannons along the wall pointed right at them.
"sons of the devils whore!" A soldier screamed, firing at them as both Titan Shifters quickly move out the way.
The Jaw Titan leaps onto the air before landing on the cannon and soldiers before it makes its way over to the ruined rubble. The enemy forces continue to fire at the Jaw Titan, but the Titan Shifter easily dodged with ease, jumping from rubble to rubble while the Armored Titan had made his way over to the armored train and used it as a shield.
The Armored Titan the stands, letting out a roar as he grabbed onto the train, twirled around, and caused a few cannons to fly elsewhere before swinging the train along the wall.
The soldiers and cannons fly in the air from the impact before falling dead on the ground.
The Armored Titan drops the train and looks at the ruined city. There were a few Titans, who had died from falling, that were laying on top of roofs and rubble.
He then looks over at the Jaw Titan, who had eliminated the final remaining cannons and soldiers, and looked over its shoulder to give Reiner the signal.
'It's done!' He then looks up at the sky to see Zeke now finally gliding down with his parachute. He then waves at him, signaling him that the enemy had been executed and was ready for him to come down.
Zeke, who stared at him, narrowed his eyebrows. "So the forts been cleared" He muttered, letting go of the parachute handles, and brought the knife, which he was holding in his right hand, to his left palm. " it's our failure that allowed this war to happen, Reiner." He then slices his hand, blood splattering over his face and goggles as he begins to transform.
Once the transformation was done, he had turned into the Beast Titan and landed on the ground, the ground shaking from the impact.
The Armored Titan looked over his shoulder to see the Beast Titan not far from him. "Every war is awful don't you agree?" The Beast Titan says before looking down at his right to see the prepared bombs
He then grabs a handful before standing up and making his way over at the huge, destroyed wall and faced the far away battleships that were on the ocean heading towards them
The Beast Titan prepares to pitch as Falco, Gabi, Udo, and Zofia continue to watch. "After four long years...." Udo muttered
"We're about to win this war." They then watch the Beast Titan reel his arm, stomp on the ground, then chucked the bombs right onto the battleships, but something catches the Beast Titan off guard and has his eyes widen. "Huh?" Upon realizing what's happening, he shrieks. "What?!" As soon as he chucked those bombs over to the ships, the battleship had sent their bombs pummeling right over to the Beast Titan. He quickly covers his face, but suddenly, the Armored Titan gets in front of him and takes the blow.
The cannons hit all over his body and the surrounding area as the bombs the Beast Titan chucked had finally hit the battleships and caused them to explode. The Armored Titan staggers from the hit before he falls to the ground.
Emerging from the dust cloud, the Beast Titan had once again grabbed a handful of bombs and threw them over at the remaining battleships as it once again, explodes upon impact
The war was officially over. The Marleyans had won.
Following the lost of their fleet, the Mid-East Allied Forces had not choice by to sign a peace treaty on Marley's terms. It was a long difficult war for Marley. But it did end in victory. However the war also did get clear to the whole world. That the power of Titans would soon be eclipsed.
Knowing this the leaders of Marley would resolved to obtain the Founding Titan as quickly as possible.
The Beast Titan stands straight and looks over his shoulder, staring down at the Armored Titan's destroyed body in silence. Gabi and Falco frown and stare with fear at the sight. "Oh, no..." Soon enough, the word got out on the newspaper as the Marleyans were all reading them with smirks.
"Thanks to the incredible bravery of the Marley army, Fort Slava fell and the Mid East fleet was sunk!" A man announced, making the Marleyans let out cheers.
"That's incredible!"
"I knew out soldiers would pull it off!" As the Marleyans cheered, a two man in a suit wearing a hat was at the newspaper booth, paying a copy himself and his friend
He handed the clerk 3 coins before turning around and walked away from the crowd with his friend
The two then reads the newspaper, eyes scanning the paragraphs before closing it, and walked off
