The alarms began to blaze. You jumped up from your bunker, and immediately rush to Petra, who's sleeping soundly with soft snores escaping her mouth.

"Petra! Wake up! The sirens are going off! Emergency!" You shake her hard until she jolts awake, quickly throwing on her gear.
You usually slept with your gear on, so you just helped her with the straps, and rushed out towards the training grounds where the important meetings were held.

You saw Levi and the rest of your squad members along with Section Commander Hanji Zoë and her new squad members all lined up.

It did not take long for everyone to come towards the meeting spot, and the sirens went off.

Commander Erwin saluted and told us of the situation. Unfortunately, a 60 meter class titan had broken through Wall Maria..titans were pouring through the hole it had kicked in.

You hadn't seen a titan since your last expedition, and you've never seen a titan of this...height!

60 meter class!? You thought.

Erwin gave us his usual speech he always gave before a battle, and shooed us away towards the battle grounds.

It was an awful sight. You saw men, women and children running for their lives in utter terror, screaming bloody murder. You winced at the sights of Titans grabbing them and throwing them down their rotten throats.

You were ordered to follow Section Commander Hanji's orders while my other squad mates followed Levi's.

"(Y/N), I know you're not the best fighter, which is why I'm ordering you to just...save as many people as you can if they're in trouble. Guide them to safety. There should be a riverboat just up North. If you're ever in trouble," she hands me a flare. "-shoot this. Special Operations Squad will immediately respond to this distress signal and come to assist. Now go!" She shoots out her Vertical Maneuvering Equipment into a building, and flies off with her squad mates following.

I get a slight shiver down my spine at her order..wondering if I had the courage to pull it off. I shake the feeling off, and stuff the flare into a strap, and tighten it to secure the object.

I fly into the air and search for anyone in need of assistance. I spot a family of six running, and plop down next to them, running along side them.

"Listen to me. I know you're afraid and tired, but I need you to run as quickly as you can up North. There will be a riverboat waiting to set sail into Wall Seena." I look down to see two tiny children crying. "Please don't cry. Everything will be okay, for the Survey Corps are here!" I shoot myself back into the air, searching for more people.

After a minute of flying, I heard loud thuds coming up from behind me. I turn my head to find a 15m class titan running after me.

An abnormal....

Like Hanji said, I'm not the best fighter, but I can't just shoot my flare everytime I come in cross with a titan. I've gotta fight it!

I brung my blades out and looked for an attack spot. The titan ran quickly and clumsily, and I thought maybe if I could cut it's knees, it would stop it from running for a good 10 seconds, giving me a chance to cut its nape.

I went through with this plan and shot out a line towards the ground, swooping under and between the titans legs, only to be boomeranged back. I took the opportunity to slice at its knees. And just as expected, it fell to the ground, already beginning its regenerating process.

I hurriedly took to its back, and gave the nape a deep, nice cut, and flew off.

My first titan kill...!

I couldn't help but softly smile and giggle at the thought of my first titan kill. That happy moment immediately faded when I heard the screams of a boy. I turned my head towards the noise, to see a boy tugging at arms.

I went closer and realized that he seemed to be trying to pull a woman out from under...a house!?

The house must've collapsed due to the force of the wall being kicked through...or maybe a titan stomped on it?

I rush down to their aid. I notice another girl with black hair, and dead gray eyes. In a way, she sort of resembled Levi...?

"What's wrong!?" I ask.

The boy didn't respond, but only continued to tug at the arms while she shouted at him to run.

There was a titan slowly walking up towards the collapsed house and I panicked.

I didn't want to leave the woman behind, but if I tried to save her, we all risk getting killed by that titan...

I thought of maybe trying to kill it. I mean, I did manage killing that other one on my own.

I begin to run over towards it, leaving the trio behind, but immediately stop as a man rushes from behind me.

I recognized the man as Hannes. He gave me a smirk and winked at he zipped up towards the titan to kill it.

I rushed back to the trio, and tried to pull the woman out from under the house, but she struggled against my grip and screamed at me to take her children away.

I didn't want to, but I followed her command.

"Guys, we've got to leave her. Please come with me. Her legs are crushed, and there's no way we can get her out from under the house. Look around you, we're going to become titan chow if we don't leave right now!" I begin to tug on the boys arm. The girl came behind me and encouraged the boy she called "Eren" to comply.

He yelled and cursed and refused to come. The mom screamed at him to listen to me.

I took notice of two more titans. Hannes was still fighting against the 15m titan that was going to attack.

"We've got to go, now!" I screamed and tugged harder on his arm.

"Mom!" The boy pushed me back and continued to try and save his mother. The girl that resembled Levi grabbed him, and put him in between her arm. She nodded at me and we began to run as fast as we could towards the North.

I heard the soft crying of Eren's mother in the background as another titan caught attention to her. It walked up towards her and easily grabbed her from under the ruins of her home. She put up a fight to get out of its grasp, but to no avail.

I turned my head backwards to not look, but poor Eren was forced to look as he was being carried.

And then he screamed. Loud. And then he began to cry. Loud.

I assumed his mother had been lost. I felt so bad not being able to save her...

Just like Farlan...and Isabel...I began to whimper at this thought. I was unable to save all of them...

I escorted them all the way towards the sailboat, where it was almost completely full with little to no room. I urged them to get on anyway and noticed Eren and the girl plop down next to this blonde haired, blue eyed boy they called Armin.

I turned away from them, not being able to withstand the guilt of not being able to save the poor mother, and quietly sobbed as I zipped back through the air.

I was not done with my assigned task.

Not yet.
