Wish




"Alright Historia, It seems we are finally alone" Rod said, carrying a brief case in his hand while Historia turns to him. "Father..." He stopped his walking as soon as he was close to his daughter. "I'm Sorry for make you wait. Listen, Historia..." He places a hand on her shoulder, "I imagine that this will sound strange to you, but Frieda isnt  entirely dead."Historia looked at her father in shock "your sisters memories are still alive. Would you like the chance to meet her again?"

Historia forms a small smile, little tears formed in her eyes as she answered. "Yes." Rod squint his eyes at her before letting her shoulder go. He places the case down, opens it, and digs through to pull out a black box.He opens it to reveal a syringe and a small bottle in place. Seeing this, Eren's eyes widen.

The memory of his father holding it flashes. At that moment, Eren began to struggle and tried to scream while Rod just watches.

Meanwhile

Levi kicks open the entrance to the crystal cave, making everyone in Kenny's group become full alert. 'Here they come 'The woman thought, as she looked at mirror attached to her gun. She saw three 'barrels' roll down the stairs, making her slightly confused. 'Wait... What are those?'

Then, Levi and everyone else ran in while Sasha had her arrows lit and Armin holding a flare gun in his hand. The girl's mouth dropped at the flaming arrow. 'Shit' Sasha releases the arrow and it zooms over to one of the 'barrels', causing it to explode and smoke to erupt. "Damn it." One of the guys said ". Gunpowder. Judging from those fires, the Bears must have bags of oil on them. " The girl said. "This could get ugly!"

Levi, Mikasa, and drake zoom through the smoke. "Here they come!" One of the men shouted, guns aimed. "Shoot 'em down!" But then, green flares were shot out to the three as the girl turns her head over to the source. "signal flares?!" She sees Connie, Hanji, Moblit, Jean, Armin, and Sasha shooting them out, She clicked her tongue

. "We can't shoot if we can't see our targets."Levi maneuvers himself around a pillar and looks over at Kenny's troops, counting. "Twenty-four. Thirty-two. Thirty-five total!" He announced. "In the other parts of the pillars!" He descends down to the smoke while the others try to find at least a glimpse of them. "Continue the plan! We'll take 'them all out right here!"

Levi, Mikasa, and drake reveal themselves, making the girl tense up and shout. "Everyone scatter! Let them spread out, then surround them!" She then flights out, making drake, mike, Connie, Reiner, bertholt, Ymir, Jean, and Hanji move in, Sasha releases another fire arrow, hitting a barrel and it explodes again, meanwhile Graysons and lizzy snuck around in the smoke bellow. " I can't see shit!" One of the men said. "Damn it! Where'd they go?!"

Just then Jean came flying above, glaring down at the man as a thought of Armin explaining comes in his head.

of the Anti-Personnel ODM gear Has a big weakness. The anchor points in the same direction as the gun, so once it's deployed, the gun can't be aimed again. Which means that while the user is moving, the vulnerable to an attack from behind.

The man looks up and sees Jean swing his blade at his neck. Two of the troops fly in front of them before they look over and see Connie. "Look over there! Fire!" But Connie was soon quickly covered in the green smoke as a man used both his guns to shoot, but when the smoke cleared a bit, they noticed that Connie wans't there anymore. "I missed?! Lost him!"Connie comes flying in and slices the mans back as the women glares up at him. "die!" " connie! Look out!" Reiner yelled, She aims her gun at connie, to which, he gasped, but an arrow pierced through the girls heart, making her fall to the ground into the smoke.

"Sasha!"

"Connie! Get back into the smoke before they shoot you!" Armin shouting, reloading another flare, same as Marco lizzy  and Zane. "Take this!" A man screamed, aiming his guns at Hanji right before a smoke covered her. He shoots, but misses. "Damn it!"

But their greatest weakness... is that once they've fired twice...

Hanji flies in and stabs the man right through his chest, causing blood to splatter all over her face and goggles

.... they need a few seconds re unload their weapons

Sasha fires her arrow at the last barrel as it, again, explodes and causes smoke to form. 'We're getting slaughtered' The girl thought, eyes darting everywhere. Three troops had their guns aimed as one of them shouted. "Damn, she's fast!" They fire their guns at Mikasa, but she simply dodges them and simply killed all three of them off with ease

.'Once they've closed the range gap, swords have the advantage!' The girl mentally noted. A man had aimed their at Mikasa, charging in to get closer, but she moved out of the way and drake comes in and kicks him against a pillar. 'We have to stop them!' Two other guys get grabbed by vines, and thrown against a wall, by kanna, who was hiding down bellow in the smoke, grayson was speeding around, up the walls then slicing bad guys he came a cross

Two men were killed in an instant by Levi, as the blonde-haired girl tries to escape from the chaos. She looks back and sees Levi gaining up on her 'At this rate, they'll wiped us out!'

Levi goes for the attack, but catches something in the corner of his eye. He sees Kenny " woohoo!" who shoots at him, but he simply hides behind the crystal pillar. Kenny lands against another crystal pillar, gun aimed at the one Levi is hiding. "Hey, Levi." He calls out, "I don't exactly have time to waste on ya..." He unloads his used bullet and replaces it with a new one, "...But I can't just have ya gettin any further'."

Levi doesn't respond. "So be it." Kenny replies, " I'll just have to play." He jumps off the pillar and zooms around it and makes his way over to Levi's. "Catch me if ya can, boy!" Kenny's eyes avert down to see Levi flip down and zoom above before descending down and tried to swing his blade at him, but Kenny blocks it with his gun. "You're a lively one, damn." Levi sends a hard glare down at Kenny before flying off. Kenny shoots his gun at him but Levi was able to hide behind the crystal pillar on time. "Tch." Levi averts his eyes away from his right before looking down at the smoke. He slightly false when seeing broken wheels and barrels.

Meanwhile

Mikasa and drake were gaining up on the blonde haired woman, she gasps when she notices mikasa swinging her blades at her. The girl moves her head on time, only have a few strains of her hair get cut off. Mikasa and drake split off to the left while the girl continued on going straight forward.

Back with Levi, he notices Kenny had gained up to him. The man smiles down at the raven-haired boy. "Aren't you tired of this game yet? all right." Then, Kenny disappears when passing a pillar

Levi keeps alert until he heard Kenny's voice behind him. "I taught ya this one!" Levi shoots his head over his shoulder."When your chasing your enemy, you shouldn't just stare straight ahead!" Kenny shoots a platform, to which, black smoke appears and the platform breaks.

Levi quickly looks back and dodged the incoming wood. He lands against the pillar and sees Kenny coming at him. "here, dimwit!"

Kenny thrusts his gun at the raven-haired, but Levi quickly jumps off and flies away, but unfortunately, Kenny was able to slice Levi's cheek due to the man holding a small dagger. Kenny turns around, gun aimed with his usual smile on his face. He shoots, to which, Levi throws a bag filled with gasoline.

The bullet and the bag meet, and it explodes. Kenny covers his face from the heat while Levi flies through the fire and swings his blade at him, but Kenny blocks it with his dagger.

They fight to see who has the upper hand, but luckily for Levi, he won, and was able to slice Kenny across the stomach. "You... bastard." Kenny utters, before flying off. "That really hurt!" But Levi wasn't going to let him go, as we began to follow behind him.

As that happened, the blonde girl was still trying to get a safe area while she continued to think in her head. 'They know our weaknesses. Maybe I can use that...' Her thoughts were interrupted when she noticed Hanji making her way towards her.

The blonde girl glares at Hanji and aims both guns at her. She does a small flip before firing, but she misses Hanji by a long shot. "Huh? Those shots weren't even close to hitting me!" Exclaimed Hanji. She smirks and raises her blades. "heh. It Looks like I found another reckless spirit!"The girl lands against the crystal pillar, gun raised towards Hanji, who gasps and a worried expression grazes over her face. The girl uses her left grappling and shoots it towards Hanji. The glass-eyed girl tried to dodge, but it pierced through her shoulder. "Agh!"The girl swings Hanji around for a small bit before releasing her and throwing her against another pillar

Hanji's back hits the pillar, to which, she falls and rolls on the floor.Levi lands against the crystal pillar as everyone's eyes widen when they see their fellow comrade, and friend, fallen. "Hanji!" Grayson screamed. A small pool of blood starts to form around Hanji. The blonde girl stares down at Hanji before yelling at her people, "Now! Will reform our defences at the fallback point! Time to regroup."

She then flies off. "Time to regroup!" Her and Kenny's group begin to fly away. Levi stares down at Hanji's body, eyes widened still before he notices Kenny and dodges the oncoming bullet. "Stay out of our damn way, you little runt." He says, still clutching his wounded stomach.

Kenny's group makes it through the next area of the crystal basement. The blonde girl looks over her shoulder and shouts. "Let it down!" One of the soldiers cuts a rope, releasing a huge net blocking off the entrance. "You Guard the ritual site!" The girl shouts to Kenny. "Will do. You Try not to die."

Meanwhile back in the chamber

"It sounds like the enemys drawing nearby." Rod announces to his daughter. "This is it, we end to hurry." He says, clutching the syringe in his hand and Historia's arm. "Right." The girl replied, but, the sound of Eren's voice protesting makes her stop and glare up at him

."Whats the matter? Why are you glaring like that?." The girl questions, but Rod replies with a quick answer. "because... he realised what it is that we have to do. the power His father store for him. Must be returned to its rightful place. Historia... That place is with you." Historia stares at her father with brows furrowed. "Eh?" Eren continues his muffled yelling as Rod turns to his daughter and explains.

"The cavern where in now was built around a century ago. Using the titan power of our ancestor. The very same power was employed to build the three walls. And it's thanks to those enormous walls that humanity has survived. The voice of this founding tighten reached out to touch the peoples hearts... And altered the memories forever. understand that although a few blood lines were exempt, even their knowledge was lost over time. Today, humanity knows nothing of the world before the walls. The only exception is your sister, Frida Rice. Frida possessed far more than the power to become a titan. She knew what this world was once like.  And she knew what brought it to its current state. She was only 15 years old when she took the burden of that knowledge upon herself. It was eight years ago that she perform the ritual. In this very chamber, she ate her uncle-my younger brother.In doing so, Frida inherited the founding titan And the memories of this world. As her uncle had before her. As our ancestors have for 100 years." he finished

"Does that mean...?" Historia eyes dilate as she looks over at the chained up Eren. "It's true. Had she survived, Frida could have used her  this power is to eliminate humanities worse with ease. In time, she could've wiped the titan scourge from the face of the world. But then his father came and stole that power. Now, the power resides within eren." He gasped hearing this. " but it's wasted with him. The founding Titans might can only be wheeled by a member of our bloodline. As long as he remains the vessel for that power, this hell will never end." Historia gasped when she understood

"then..."

' historia...no...please!...' Latina weak voice in her head begged

"Hey, hey, hey! Just a damn minute!"Historia and Rod look over to see Kenny landing down to them. "Kenny." Rod greets. " sounds like you said that if someone who isn't a Reiss eats eren, They won't get the power of the king.?" Kenny questions."

"yes. That's right."Kenny looks up, a rather nervous and upset expression is shown. "So Then... what?  if I do turn into a Titan and eat Eren, it ain't going to do me any good?!"

Rod looks at him confusedly. "What are you saying—?" His sentence was interrupted when Kenny grabs the collar of his shirt and lifts him up in the air with Kenny's gun pointed directly at Rod's right eye. "Let him go!"

"What the hell is gotten into you? Do you think I'm lying?" Rod spoke. "No, I don't." Growled Kenny. "I waited long for this day Because I knew if there was one thing you weren't lying about, it was the succession ritual. Dam. You prick. You knew what I was after this whole time. And you know I didn't have a chance in hell of getting it. But'cha went a ahead and used me,huh?!"

All Rod said was, "I'm very grateful. When my brother first brought you into his service, I thought it was just one of his foolish whims, but you—"

"You Keep on talkin shit about Uri, and you can kiss this half of your head goodbye!." Kenny threaten, digging deeper with his gun, until Historia came in and grabbed the gun.

"Stop it!" She glared up at the man. "Get away from my father!" Kenny raises a brow and sighs. "Come on. This is pitiful., Don't you get it yet, Historia? Your daddy doesn't give a damn!"

He pushes her to the floor. "Brought you here so he can turn you into a monster.And after that he is going to make you eat your buddy eren. And use your friend like a puppet." He gestured his gun up towards the boy and the girl chained up

Historia stares at Eren for a moment before glaring at Kenny and standing up. "If that's my duty then that's what I'll do" Latina's eyes widen with tears ' no!....please!....I'm begging you!...' as Kenny narrows his eyes down at historia" yeah?" while she continues. " i've decided. I'll eat eren and bring my sister back! Of inherit the world history... And exterminate every last titan! If that's my duty, then... I'll do it!"She didn't even realise Latina's eyes darkening ' then...I will die...than become a slave of humanity...'

Kenny, displeased, lowers Rod to the floor, but still holding onto his collar, and barks back at the girl. " damn it, Historia, Think about this. What the hell has this old bastard ever done for you?!" He brings out his dagger and holds onto Rod's face, bringing the knife to his teeth. "only Reason he picked you up is cause of that royal blood of yours." Rod's mouth opens and Kenny plays with his knife, touching both upper and bottom teeth. "This piece of trash is too scared to turn into a titan himself. That's why he forced his brother and daughter to do it for him! And even killed a man for protecting his family and its power! That's the kind of man your daddy is!"

Historia looks away from Kenny and her father, shaking a bit. Rod grabs Kenny's dagger by the blade and tries to speak. "He's wrong, Historia... that isn't the truth. It's essential that I do not become a tight in myself. You mustn't believe him..I'm the only man alive you can trust..."There was a pause before Kenny let's go of Rod. " is that so?" Historia rushes her way over to Rod. "Father!" She kneels down to him while Rod coughs.

He looks over his shoulder, holding his mouth due to the blood. "Kenny. You've served me well to this very moment. You're free now. Go find another purpose for your life... and live out your years."

Kenny stares down at them and replies. "That'd bore me to death...so." He walks away from them and makes his way to latina first, taking off her gag and noticed her dark eyes with the tears " oh damn....poor thing...you've reached your limit...must feel betrayed huh? " he pay her head, then walks up the stair case up to Eren. "Kenny.  Just What are you planning to doing?" Rod questions. "If she wants to turn into a titan," The goatee man states. " well, then that's her choice to make."

He finally makes his way to Eren, grabbing him by his hair and removing the mouth piece. "But I say the boy and girl should get a fair shot." Once the mouth piece was off, Eren pants a little while Kenny brings out his dagger again. "They can both turn tighten and fight it out. If historia wins, well, then you'll have your peace. And the girl. But if eren takes her down, the situation stays the same." He drags the blade across Eren's forehead as blood starts to spew. He lets go of his hair, making him fall forward and historia gasp

" go on the livin' For the sake of drawing breath? That doesn't sound like any kinds life to me." Kenny hisses, staring down at the, rather odd, quiet Eren. Then, Rod gets up and stomps his way over to Historia, holding the syringe.

"Historia! Take this injection and you'll become a powerful Titan! If you can remember, it's not enough just to bite him anywhere. To take his power, you have to consume his spinal fluid!" He places the syringe on Historia's hands, who's mouth is widened and looks puzzled at it. Kenny readjust his hat. "reckon I'd better step back." He then flies off to a safe area, far from the three. " Go on. You have to hurry!"

She quickly turned towards Eren, looking to see any reaction from him. "Eren...why...why aren't you transforming? You're going to fight back, aren't you? You can't just let me-. Defend yourself!" He lifted his head showing his face, she gasped when she was the tears

"Historia! This is your chance!" Rod yelled

"It didn't have to be like this...All that death...could've been avoided...five years ago, If that hadn't done what he did...Your sister...she would've been able to do something to stop all of this...but Because my dad chose to steal your family's power from its rightful owner...Countless people ended up getting killed...armins grandpa...Thomas, nack, Mina, milieus...the people of stohess...Soldiers who came to see me... And hannes... I can never atone for all their pain... That never should've happened... those days I spent in training... That stupid dream that I could see the world.... And me, too... I shouldn't have happened..." Historia stares at Eren with sadness, as it was reflecting on when her mother abandoned her "If nothing else, then at least... Let it end at your hand...take your power back...and use that to save humanity with Latina...It's all...up to you..."

" I don't wanna live..."historia gasped when she heard her friend bellow finally talk " Latina?" She looked over at her and saw her head looking to the ground" please....kill me...." her eyes widened " I...I can't...what are you...."

" Ive Had enough... I can't live like...as a slave to humanity...all they do is spit on my face...they took my family....my dreams...my memories...my freedom...how can I live like this!?" She sobbed "...if people are just gonna use me like a tool...for all I'm worth till their done with me...then I choose to die now!..." historia's eyes stayed wide in shock and sadness

"Eren...Latina...I remember...when you said that I was a normal girl...I was so happy."Historia now felt unsure about her decision, then a Flashback of ymir, popped in her head ' I see. This is your idea of trying to be nice?'

The syringe was close to Historia's arm, but she couldn't muster up the courage to continue though. Rod was now next to her and  questioned her "What's wrong, Historia? Are you scared? All you have to do is inject the fluid into your body."

"Wait...father...for a hundred years...we had the power...but we didn't use it. Why didn't our family do something? If we could control the titans...then why didn't we liberate humanity?" She asked

"...That's because...the same king who built this world within walls for humanity. wanted us to live in fear of the titans for all of time."As he starts explaining, Eren listens with his eyes widened except Latina, she felt lost and alone, but still listened

"The first king believed this was to be the only path to lasting peace. But I can't tell you why...because only those who's seen the world's memories could know!" he continued, Grabbing his daughter by the Wrists

"Many years ago, my I and my brother pleaded with our father to free humanity from the titans. We asked him time and time again. However, he would not fulfil our wish. Eventually, the time came for one of us to succeed him. After my brother completed the ritual, when I looked into his eyes, I understood. My brother wasn't there. He had become something greater. And omniscient being exempt from death. Who built and rules over the world we live in. Such a being like that...a being like your friend violet such as for example. Do you know what such a being is called?...A god. There is no other word, aside from god. So now it's my sacred duty, to bring god back to this world and then to offer up my prayers. I'm praying right now Historia...for god to return and lead mankind once again!." he explained slowly bring the injection towards Historia's wrist.

'Christa... Latina... have no business telling you how to live your lives. It's not my place' as the needle got closer ' so I guess when you break it down, this is really just more of a hope.' The end point was just an inch away from her skin ' Christa...Latina...Live a life you can be proud of.' Historia's eyes widened, that's when she snapped

She slapped the injection away from her wrist, causing it to fall on the ground and shatter. Took Rod a few seconds to process before he let out an angered scream before grabbing Historia by the collar. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?" he yelled

But Historia was quick to act as she grabbed her father by the shoulder and flip him over on his back, breaking his arm in the process. "God my ass! If it was such an honor to become him, why didn't you do it yourself!? I'm tired of your shit. And I'm not going to let you murder me! Or take Latina life's and freedom away!" Historia grabbed a bag and quickly ran up to where Latina was chained, used the keys to undo her locks and supported her up the steps " come on!" While the girl gasps in shock, This caught Eren off guard, as historia rushed up the stairs with violet as Kenny laughed " that's the spirit! This is getting good!"

She took the keys out from the bag, placing Latina down and use it to free Eren of the chains." The hell are you doing, historia?" She continued unlocking the locks "Setting you two free!" but he shakes his head and began protesting

"No! Stop! You can't! If you don't kill me then everyone will just keep suffering! Just eat me already damnit! I can't live like this so end it!" Historia just punched him at the side of his head "Shut up dumbass! Stop your crying! I don't care!"He looks over at his shoulder and sees Historia ripping the chains off the ground, continuing to send a look towards him " I don't care about killing all the Titans! And I don't care about freeing mankind either! I'm starting to get sick of humanity! I say let 'em get wiped up by Titans! And if that makes me an enemy of humanity... So be it. I don't care if I'm the worst girl who ever lived!" she continued, She tosses the chains away and continues unlocking more of them " You get Latina the hell out of here. I'll deal with the rest." As Historia was busy with Eren, Rod had crawled his way over to the broken syringe and muttered to himself

" father...uri...and Frieda... i'm coming. Just wait." He then licks the Serum, which makes his eyes and mouth flow a bright yellow. Rod begins his transformation of becoming a Titan, as it's skeleton body bends over to look at Eren, Latina and Historia.
