She was being held up as she and her father stumbled along the forest, her lungs burning from being made to run for so long when she was barely conscious. Two of her siblings were with them, Dirk and Florian, they had made it out of the chapel just fine, and now Dirk was pulling Florian by the arm just so she could keep up with them.

Abel though, she was grabbed, probably dead if her mother and Urklyn were the examples to go by. Father had only mentioned their deaths briefly, she hadn't seen it happen, but he made it sound so gruesome, 'crushed in an instant' he had described it to her while they were running.

"Father, we can stop here." Frieda swallowed whatever air she could get into her lungs as they stopped, she sat down against a tree, deep breaths greedily gulping down fresh air.

Rod had hunched over by the tree, throwing up just out of sight, but they could hear the sound, it was very distinct, like chunky water splashing on the ground.

Dirk was leaning on the tree, gasping for breath as well, he had tears flowing down his face, he had just seen his brother and mother die as well, it was horrifying. Watching two people you loved have their lives taken from them in an instant, especially when the only thing you could see was the spray of blood and nothing else.

Florian on the other hand was confused, she was also crying, having run to Frieda for comfort, burying her face into her older sister's shoulder. She was crying her eyes out at the fact she'd seen Abel, who she was closest to get grabbed by the giant hand of a Titan, being pulled down the hole while she cried and screamed for her life.

Rod had now finished throwing up, wiping the corner of his mouth with his sleeve as he threw up. "Frieda, why didn't you kill that man and take his power?" Rod asked his daughter. "He hesitated so much, you could've taken his power right then and there, then used it to defeat that other Titan."

"What other Titan?" Frieda hadn't seen it because she had been so out of it. "There was more than one? What did it look like?"

"It was a pure white." Rod told her. "He stopped us from escaping at first, he spoke through the Titan. He said that if we handed you over, he wouldn't kill the rest of us." He explained further.

"Did-" Frieda now realised what Titan they now had after them, and it was not good for them, not with her in the current state she was in. "Did he... make anything out of nothing?" She wanted to be absolutely sure about this.

"He made a spear appear out of nowhere." Dirk nodded. "I saw it when we were running up the stairs, and he threw shards of crystal at the hairy Titan when it tried to grab you."

This was bad, very bad for her. She had neglected to take part in any form of training or practice with combat or her Titan, she was far too weak to take on a War Hammer that knew what he was doing.

"Father, even with my powers, I'm too weak to stop him in my current state." She was being brutally honest with herself. "I need to become stronger fast, I'll need your help, I'll need all of your help."

"I agree wholeheartedly Frieda." Rod nodded. "We'll send the Interior Police tomorrow to make sure the chapel is safe to return to. Only then can we think about a funeral for Urklyn, Abel and your mother." His voice almost cracked when he spoke, but he needed to be strong, for Frieda, for Dirk and for Florian.

"For now, we need to go into hiding." Rod announced. "None of us knows what he looks like, I'm presuming it was him that killed Javier, however he made him talk, it's not good for any of us."

Just then, rustling could be heard in the distance, the sounds of branches being stepped on and broken, along with someone breathing heavily.

"Dirk, take Florian and run!" Rod whispered as loud as he dare, helping Frieda to her feet while the young teen began pulling his sister along. "Come Frieda, hurry!" She had somewhat recovered, but having her father help was a lot faster than if she were to run by herself.
