Levi

With the current situation we're in I couldn't believe that we were not only surrounded by titans, but we've also got to worry about fighting against the Armored Titan too. We have to trust Erwin to give us orders on what we have to do. Until then, right after I stabbed Reiner that wasn't doing anything useful which his body wasn't phased after I did it. That's why he's in his titan form. I looked over to see Y/N was here...WHY IN GOD'S NAME IS SHE HERE!?

"Y/N!" I raised my voice as she faced me with her golden eyes in terror.

I was angry. I was so fucking angry that she disobeyed me and came anyway. Didn't she listen? Is this brat hardhead or deaf?

Erwin tries to stop me but I ignore him to crouch down at Y/N's level gripping her shoulders with a stoic and displeased look on my face.

"Why are you here? How did you get here?" I shouted at her at the top of my lungs. "You have no reason to be here! This is a dangerous mission we're on and here you are just...Why did you come?"

"Levi!" Erwin snapped at me as I glared at him back at her only to see her pale expression.

"Y/N..." I loosened my grip off her shoulders as she began trembling.

'I scared her with my tone?' I held my head in frustration not knowing what to do now since she's here with us.

"...I'm sorry Rod. I-I won't disobey you again." She whispered as I could hear the crack in her voice.

'No. I'd yelled at her which made her think of Rod. Dammit!' I thought as I 'tch' lowering my head a shame.

"Y/N, honey, I-I didn't mean to yell at you like that. I'm sorry." I muttered the last part pulling her into an embrace to calm her down which was stupid of me to do that to her.

"You need to be more reasonable with her, Levi." Erwin lectured. "She's just a child that went through so much. I'm sure you can understand."

'Yeah...I know.' I thought as I broke out of the hug as she stares at me with those big golden eyes of hers.

'Those damn eyes are something I can tell you that much. I can see pain, fear, and sadness in them.' I thought.

"Y/N I-" I was cut off when we heard something on the wall as I looked down to see that bastard Reiner climbing up using hardening too. He can do that!?

"Commander. He's about to climb." I informed Erwin as he eyed me as I glanced back at Y/N who stared on the outside field.

"Why doesn't he have us attack? What's he thinking?" Jean inquired.

"The enemy prepared quite the welcome," Hange said. "He's watching their movements for now. Erwin doesn't want to act until he understands their strategy."

These rugrats don't know what they are in for because this is going to be a bloody massacre that they'd better be ready for. As I stared at the soldiers that were plotting something to take down my army of titans, my attention then noticed a child on the wall.

Not just any child...

'Those eyes...I can't be. Could it be...the Golden Titan?' I thought.

The legends were true because this child is young and must have unique power as it says in the book. Her eyes are the only golden pair you'll ever see and she has to be a strong kind in her titan form as well. If we're able to take down every last one of them we should be able to capture Eren and the girl that I knew her name is...Y/N. I know what her power can do and I have to get her to come to me; she is the rarest of all the titan shifters.

I raised my fist in the air to pound the ground letting out a roar, and I commanded my titans to go forward and attack.

Let's see how long they can last.

Y/N

The beast titan raised his fist in the air and onto the ground letting out a roar to signal his titans forward straight towards us.

"Get ready!" Hange alarmed.

Levi came over to me crouching down, "Y/N, whatever you do, stay on the wall."

I nodded to obey him watching Levi focused back on the mission. The small titans were heading straight for the ones that are down below with the houses targeting the horses. As I could tell that one of their objectives was targeting someone here and I'm not sure who it could be. The taller titans are remaining information which means it'll take forever to beat them and then no one will take much more of it including Eren. Reiner who was in his titan form was still climbing the wall as he seemed to have his eyes on me which I don't know what to do.

"Sir? What now? The Armor titan is almost up! Bertholdt hasn't shown yet, but he must be nearby!" Armin asked commander Erwin with the hesitation of his tone and fear in his orbs.

"Yes, I'm well aware," Erwin replied stoically.

"You finally ready to say something, Erwin? Been waiting so long, I could've made breakfast." Levi said making up a slight joke aside.

Commander Erwin starts, "Dirk squad and Marlene squad, too! Join Klause squad and protect the horses at the gate!" He commanded as he pointed over to where I was next to Levi ordering, "Levi squad and Hange squad! I need you to take down the Armored Titan. Employ the Thunder Spears at your own discretion. Do whatever it takes to achieve your objective!"

Erwin faced forward declaring his final speech, "This is our moment. Our chance to strike. The fate of humankind depends on this battle! Lay down your hearts and lives...one final time, for humanity!"

"Yes, sir!" The scouts said as they went over the wall to do their mission.

Just before Levi and Armin could leave Erwin calls them back. I stood there as Erwin tells them that Hange can lead both of their squads, but Levi was going to remain here for now. I knew Levi's objective was supposed to protect Eren and me, but he had to protect the horses.

"That's right, you'll be protecting the horses and leading the scouts outside the walls." Erwin then points his blade over at the beast titan. "And when the chance arises, you'll strike him down. You're the only soldier I can trust to dispatch the beast titan."

"Understood, sir," Levi said as his eyes had fallen onto me which I looked down. "I wasn't fast enough to finish off the Armored one earlier, but I'll atone for that by taking the beast's titan's head."

"I will look after Y/N while you handle that job," Erwin assured.

Levi nods as he went over to me crouching down to pull me in an embrace and broke away.

"Remember what I said, okay? You'll be okay." He said in a stern tone yet his eyes were filled with worry.

I nodded my head forcing a small smile as he returned a small one after I watched him zip away. I stood next to Erwin watching afar of the titans still in their place and the beast titan grimacing at every moment of it.

Erwin speaks up, "You really have changed Levi, and I must admit. He hasn't been soft around anyone...not since he had a couple of friends in the past that he lost. He's actually glad to have you even after he saved you."

Erwin speaks to Armin, "I have a plan for the armored titan, too. We have to win on two fronts to secure victory. I can handle one. The other, I'll leave to you and Hange."

Just then, Reiner reaches the top of the wall a little too late as he spotted Erwin and then at me. I then noticed that he started reaching towards me which Erwin pulls me behind him quickly, just in time when Eren transformed into his titan form. I was relieved as Reiner changed direction to head back down off the wall that he manages to shake the whole surface causing me to lose my balance as I fell off.

"Y/N!" Erwin called down in a panic of his tone as I was falling in the air as I saw Reiner looking over at me. It was like in slow motion when he was reaching over to me as I concentrated to make myself float in the air which I was able to.

'That was a close one.' I thought.

I was floating up in the air making sure Reiner couldn't get me, but the problem is that I can't make it back up because it's WAY too high. It'll take me forever to get back up there and I know Levi told me not to get off the wall. What was I supposed to do?

As I manage to land on one of the houses hiding away from Reiner which I suspected that he's not only after Eren-they are after me too. But why?

Minutes before, Armin relayed Erwin's instructions to use Eren as bait to Hange. Mikasa was skeptical, but Hange said that if Reiner ignored Eren, Eren could circle behind the enemy Titans and attack the Beast Titan, forming a pincer with Levi and the rest of the Scouts. As Eren waits for Reiner to meet up with him in the middle of Shiganshina, he reminds himself that even if it was a fluke, he beat Reiner before. He is certain he can defeat him one-on-one. Eren hardens the backs of the fingers on his Titan's hands and Reiner charges towards him. The two tussles and Eren draws strength from the fact they are fighting in the town he once called home. He manages to strike his hardened fist into the side of Reiner's head, cracking his armor and knocking him to the ground.

"He can do it," I muttered just as I saw the fight continuing ahead I saw Jean heading over to where I was.

"Y/N! What are you doing down here?" Jean asked.

I whip my head around at him, "I can't get back on the wall. Reiner made me fall and I manage to float to hide behind the rooftops because he's after me."

"Reiner is after you?" Jean furrowed his eyebrows as I nodded.

"He was reaching over to me when I was with Erwin. And now..."

"I get it." Jean clicks his tongue before picking me up in his arms.

"Your sticking with us for now. We'll make sure he won't lay a hand on you." He assured me after he carried me to zip off to where the others were.

Eren and Reiner grapple with each other and Eren manage to throw Reiner off of him. As Reiner realizes that he cannot take Eren on by himself, Hange leads their squad and Levi's to attack the Armored Titan. Reiner is surprised, but as soon as we made eye contact, he reached towards me as my eyes glowed that I unexpectedly didn't think of what else to do but use my ability. Not expecting that they can actually damage him when Hange and Mikasa fly towards him armed with their new Thunder Spears. The rod-like projectiles impale Reiner in the eyes and then explode, blinding him. I took the advantage to touch him which made his titan armor crumble into shocking bits.

"H-How did you do that?" Jean asked.

"I-I don't know." I stuttered.

"He's like wearing nothing but skin, which will take him a while to regenerate," Jean said as flew on a rooftop to set me down as I looked at my hands in astonishment that is part of my titan form.

'I don't know what I just did. I did it before...I just don't know how to control it.' I thought.

From behind, the rest of Hange and Levi Squads attack, firing their Thunder Spears into the Armored Titan's back and disengaging before they can get caught up in the explosion. Jean Kirschtein shouts that it worked, the armor around Reiner's nape is peeling off. Hange calls for them to attack again to finish him off, but Conny Springer and Sasha Braus hesitate at the idea of killing Reiner. Jean rallies them and the three move in to attack with the rest of the Scouts.

Multiple Thunder Spears pierce the Armored Titan and Reiner panics just before they explode.
