Dream ꕥ Eren J.

┏°⌜ 076: After dark

You sat in your dark room on the windowsill, looking out of the window. It was raining and storming outside, and you watched as lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating Shiganshina and the Wall around the City below. The sound of thunder filled your ears, rumbling through your body.

You felt like you were the only person in the world, alone and forgotten. The rain continued to pour down, creating a near-constant hum that filled the room.

As you sat there lost in thoughts, you couldn't help but think about Ymir. The storm outside seemed to mirror the turmoil in your own mind. The world was a frightening place, and you were just a small, insignificant part of it.

But then, as you watched, a bolt of lightning struck near the Wall - the one that protected humanity from the Titans. The Wall didn't move at all from the impact, it didn't fall. It held strong, just as it always had.

In that moment, you realized that the Wall was a symbol of hope. It represented all of the things that humanity was fighting for - safety, security, and a future free from the Titans. And even though the storm outside was fierce, you knew that the Wall would stand strong, just as humanity would stand strong.

Despite the clouds, you could suddenly see the moon a little and illuminated your room. Something was reflected on your table and you got up to look at it.

It was Gabi's knife. She gave it to you in the woods before Zeke approached you.

"Shit..."
You mumbled to yourself.
You just remembered that you wanted to give it back to her.

With the knife in your hand you sat back on the windowsill, leaning against the window. The rain pounded against it, drops of water flowed down the glass.

You could see your own reflection in the knife, and it made you think about the journey that had brought you here. You had come a long way since that day Eren saved you from Zeke in the Park in your world, and you had faced many challenges and difficult decisions along the way.

As you looked at yourself in the reflection, you saw a person who had changed in so many ways. You had grown stronger and more independent, but you had also lost a bit of your innocence and naivety along the way. The world was a different place than you had thought it was, and you knew that you could never go back to the way things had been before.

Ymir...
Her name echoed through your mind, and you couldn't help but feel a sense of loss and sadness.

'I sense that you are on the verge of something great. Something that could change everything.'

Looking at yourself you wondered how Ymir thinks about you. Would she be proud of you, or are you more of a disappointment?

Tears formed in your eyes again and you threw the knife on the floor. You couldn't stand this miserable sight anymore.

The thought of Ymir being your sister shook you. Why should she have killed you? Why are you... you?

*knock knock*

Someone was knocking on the door, but you remained quiet.
You didn't care about anything right now, just looking out the window.

The door opened and a person walked in without saying anything. You didn't check who it was at the moment because you didn't care.
They stood there for a moment, probably waiting to see if you would look or say anything, but you showed no reaction.
After a while they came closer, sitting down carefully next to you on the windowsill.

Suddenly a bright flash could be seen in the sky.

"One... two... three..."
The person started to count
