Attack on Vader

Chapter 42

Eren: So fight. Just fight.

Hange: What are you doing?

Hange ask as she stands outside of Eren's jail cell. Eren looks over at her with his yellow eyes.

Hange: I mean you're clearly muttering to yourself while staring at your reflection. But how come? Ya just the bored? Or? Hey. You said, " So fight. Just fight." Right? But when you say "so fight, just fight," who is it you're wanting to fight? I noticed that you said "fight" twice. Dose that mean you'll fight two fights? Or one fight with two rounds?

Eren stays nothing as he keeps on looking at himself through the mirror.

Hange: Your silence isn't helping your case. I mean why would you talk to yourself but then ignore another person? This doesn't seem normal at all to me. I've never chatted up my mirror before. But on a brighter note, I'm loving your new hairstyle! Yeah. The disheveled look makes a statement. It's like you can't be bothered to deal with it, 'cause you're busy working so hard-

Eren: WHAT DID YOU COME HERE TO DO?

Hange: What do you mean? I came here to talk. The first time we met, we spent all night talking about Titans. Remember? Though looking back, I guess you just listened as I rambled about my research. I had faith in you. I trusted that you would never turn on his.

2 Years Ago

The Scouts were all at the dock as they stood in front of Yelena and her group.

Yelena: Anakin. It's been a year now. I haven't seen you since you picked up our whole ship. I look forward to working beside you.

Levi: Too bad.

Erwin: You won't be working with Anakin directly. This meeting is as far as we're willing to go.

Yelena: More than enough for me. This is an auspicious day. The port's complete at last. And we're about to welcome our first foreign visitors. From the sole nation that's friendly to Paradis. Hizuru.

A Hizuru warship makes it way towards the port.

Yelena: Their Special Envoy is Kiyomi Azumabito.

Time Skip

Everyone is now on land as they all talk to each other in a building.

Kiyomi: Do you happen to recognize this family crest?

She holds up a piece of cloth with a family crest on it. Both Anakin and Mikasa gasp as Mikasa grabs her wrist.

Mikasa: That shape.

Anakin: Yeah. You should show it to them.

Mikasa: You think? But Mom told me that I should keep it a secret.

Anakin: You showed it to me and Eren back when we were just kids. This could be the whole reason she gave it to you. Go on.

Mikasa undos some wrapping around her wrist as all the Hizuru's gasp.

Mikasa: Before she died, my mom gave me this mark to match one she had herself. And she asked me to pass it down to my own children.

Kiyomi gasp as she takes a step forward putting her hands on Mikasa's shoulder.

Kiyomi: A noble deed, befitting your lineage. Over a century ago, Hizuru's shogun was an ally of the Eldian Empire. We Azumabitos trace our lineage back to his son, who was on good terms with King Fritz, and often visited here. After the Great Titan War, our once-proud nation was left defeated and in disarray. And amidst the chaos and confusion, a child gathered by the Shogun's heir was somehow left behind on this island. You are the only direct descendant of the family that once led our nation. Put simply, you are Hizuru's hope.
