I'm on one of the few last chapters of this arc right now, so all of it'll be out within a week or two.

There will be foreshadowing in this chapter for what will happen in the future.

Also, for Season 4, I'll be making another book that will be more neat. The title will be 'Dead Flower' in relation to how this book will end.

Your POV

The Scouts walked through the darkness in silence, other than footsteps. I, myself, has been shaking ever since we deployed. I felt like something was about to happen, something bad. I just had a gut and I don't like it one bit.

"Hey, you alright? You've been nervous since this morning." I hear Armin ask me with worry in his tone.

I look up from the ground and felt myself untense. "Huh? Oh, it's nothing... I'm just a bit shaky is all." I replied as I itched my head. "I just have a feeling somethings gonna go wrong. It may just be me being paranoid, but... I don't know."

I heard him let out a chuckle. "Well, actually... I'm shaking myself as well." He paused for a few seconds. "Befo-" He was about to say something, right before someone spoke up, making me jump a bit.

"Titan on the left! Everyone light up the area!" A soldier warned as they pointed their light towards the titan sitting against a rock. We all pointed our lights at the titan, seeing if it would move.

"It's all right. Pretty sure he's asleep. Doesn't look like this is one of the new types that can move at night." Hange said calmly with a chuckle. "Well, isn't that a shame. Leave him be." We all lowered our lights and put them back on the trail as I took a deep breath.

Armin's POV

"Well, actually... I'm shaking myself as well." I say with a small chuckle. I stay silent, thinking if I should just say something before things possibly go to hell. "Befo-" A soldier spoke up, startling me a bit.

"Titan on the left! Everyone light up the area!" I moved my light towards the titan that was sitting by a rock. After everything was addressed and figured out, we all calmed down. Even though I was about to come out and 'confess' right there to Y/n, I don't think it would be a good idea to right before we may die.

Your POV

A few minutes passed of silent walking. I calmed down, knowing I wasn't the only one who was nervous.

Eren grabbed his wrist suddenly to stop his shaking. "What's wrong? You're shaking." Armin asked him as he glanced over at him. "Are you scared?" He asked, making Eren turn his head to Armin immediately.

"Huh? No!" He said in a obvious lie. "Of course I'm not scared!" He said with a little stutter.

"But, look at your hand. Seems like nerves to me." Armin looked down at Eren's wrist.

"This is just 'cause it's cold out here! I feel like my hand's gonna freeze off!" Eren lied again.

I let out a sigh and turned my head towards Eren. "Eren, it's okay to be nervous. Hell, mind my language, but I'm nervous as shit." I told him, looking at the people in front of me.

"Yeah. I've been shaking too, and I'm terrified." Armin held up the lantern he held up in his hand. "Just look at me." He huffed. "I can't really tell if you've ever been afraid of Titans. That fear is all-consuming for most people. It was for me. The first time I saw a Titan in the flesh, I was so frightened I couldn't move."

I had a flashback of when Trost got broken through. That time where Armin was traumatized from seeing Eren get eaten whole in front of his eyes. I remember just seeing him sit there in tears and fear broke my heart.
