The Counterattack
Zakai watched Mikasa walk over to Armin. Armin had informed her of Eren's ill fate. Then returned to the front of the pack.
"I'm strong. Stronger than everyone here. I will go defeat them alone. You cowards just sit here and wait for death." Mikasa yelled out before zipping away.
Zakai smiled, "Well? What are we waiting for! Let's fucking go!" running towards the edge of the building and leaping off. Zipping away, soon the trio and Liliana. She sharply turned a corner, the large building that was nearby was her objective. Zakai saw the oriental go down and then Armin and Connie zooming towards her location.
Zakai's smile vanished as she spotted four titans ahead, slowing her pace as the titans quickly found some of her former classmates to devour. Reiner narrowed his eyes, scooping the brunette girl and zipping past.
"Oi, Zai, need me to hold your damn hand?" Reiner spat out, "We're too close to drop like flies!"
Zakai let the blonde continue, feeling too numb to do much else. Reiner crashed through a window, Zakai fell onto her back. Holding back a cry of pain. Jean stood, glaring at a girl under the table. Zakai stood as well, unreasonable anger surging through her. Why do I care...? They'll all die anyway... Zakai tried to reason.
Zakai turned away as Connie, Armin and Mikasa crashed into the room. Everything blurred in her mind, her gaze shifting to the window as a titan showed itself. A fist punched the titans away. Tears filled Zakai's eyes, however she rubbed them away. Lilana smiled kindly, putting her hand on Zakai's shoulder.
"W-we're almost done here..." Liliana muttered.
Zakai nodded, looking over to Bertholdt. The brunette glanced over. The two quickly averting their own gazes, a light pink tint on Zakai's cheeks. Jean, Connie and Marco pulled out Military Police issue guns. Armin told us his plan,
"Zakai, Liliana. You two are with us on the lift." Armin stated.
Zakai seemed ticked off but nodded. Soon they all got onto the lift. Liliana and her holding a gun each, along with everyone else. As the lift lowered, the seven titans neared it. When each titan stepped forward once more, Marco yelled out for them to shoot. Zakai pulled the trigger, the bullets speeding into the titans' eyes. Zakai watched five titans go down. Connie and Sasha failed however, Anne and Mikasa quickly helping. Zakai watched Sasha thank Mikasa shamelessly, turning away as the lift lowered completely.
Reiner and Bertholdt walked over, to refill their tanks. Liliana and Zakai followed them, the two refilling their tanks and sitting down. Bertholdt sat next to Zakai.
"Uh... I-i never g-got to... To t-tell you..." he started.
Marco sat next to her on the other side, "Zai!" he exclaimed.
"What do you want Freckles?" she mumbled, irritated that he was cutting into what Bertholdt wanted to tell her.
"Well uh... You... I-it's nothing!" he stood, smiling at Bertholdt and her before bounding off to talk to Jean.
"You were saying Bertholdt?" she asked with a faint smile.
"N-nevermind..." he sighed, standing, "L-looks we're l-leaving anyway..."
The short brunette nodded, standing as Reiner walked over to the lift. Everyone loaded up on it, leaving the building. Her gaze shifted to the tall brunette titan, being devoured.
"Holy shit..." she murmured, looking over to Reiner, Annie, and Bertholdt who all seemed focused on the titan.
A tall blonde titan walked towards it, the titan roaring to life. Running towards the blonde, grapping it by the nape with it's jaw and biting into it. Killing the titan, falling to it's stomach after. Jean dismissed it starting to leave, until Mikasa zipped down there. Grabbing the brunette teen that emerged from the titan's nape and wailing.
Zakai turned away, Eren is the Attack Titan for sure... she thought bitterly. Armin flew down there as well.
~~~Time skip brought to you by actual spoilers to the manga so uh, ye been warned~~~
Zakai stood by Bertholdt and Reiner, gaze casted downwards. Commander Pixis, Mikasa, Armin and Eren stood on the wall. She glanced at them, before the bald commander dismissed them. The short brunette bounded towards the walls, only for Marco to stop her.
"Uh... Zakai... I uh... Before we go out there, I wanted to confess something. I... Um... I really like you... Romantically..." the friendly ravenette choked out.
Zakai's gaze settled on the suddenly shy boy.
"No." she harshly answered, walking away before zipping up the wall. Leaving Marco there, heartbroken.
~~~Time skip brought to you by H E A R T B R O K E N Marco(ahem, don't mind the Yandere Simulator reference)~~
Zakai glared down at the titans, they were clawing at the walls pathetically. Reiner and Bertholdt hung just below the top of the wall, each watching just as she was. The short girl scoffed as titans began to get disinterested by them, finding the Attack Titan's holder to be a more suitable target. Soon she saw cadets zip down, including Jean.
"Well shit..." she murmured, zipping away from the wall.
She quickly caught the attention of two different titans. The brunette ran down a street, seeing a titan eat half of the ravenette boy that confessed to her moments prior. Zakai shook her head, continuing to run, I can't get distracted! she thought in a panic, zipping onto a house and watching the three meter and two seven meter titans. Zakai sighed, I can't deal with three titans all on my own... Not in this situation... she thought despairingly. Suddenly someone zipped forward, striking one of the seven meter's nape and then zipping atop a different house.
The tall brunette glared at the titans, "Hey! Idiots!" he called, gaining the attention of the other seven meter. Zakai simply glanced at Bertholdt before zipping forward, her blades slicing open the seven meter's nape. Two steaming titans on the ground. Zakai released her blades into the three meter's eyes, grabbing new blades and zipping onto the titan, slicing the nape and zipping to a house. Standing next to the tall brunette.
"You did good." he commented, blushing slightly.
"Oh... Uh... Thanks Bertholdt..." Zakai muttered quietly, her face flushing bright red.
She took in a deep breath, "Bertholdt Hoover." she muttered sternly. He turned his attention to the shorter brunette.
She stepped forward, "Since training started I've been telling myself I don't deserve love. That no one could dare love someone like me. But Bertholdt... despite that... I... I fell in love with you and I don't know why! I just..." she looked down, tears brimming her eyes.
Bertholdt lifted her head by her chin, leaning down and pressing his lips against her's. Zakai's eyes widened, lighting up as she smiled when he pulled away. "I love you Zai..." he admitted meekly.
Zakai looked up to the sound of Eren's furious roar.
"Looks like he actually succeeded..." Zakai mumbled, hugging Bertholdt tightly as a stressed look came upon his face.
"He did... It's going to be harder for us Zai..."

AHHH! This took too frigging long! Gosh I'm sorry guys! Thanks for all the support though and I promise I'll TRY to get chapters out more often. Good news though, I'm on Summer Break and so it SHOULD be easier to get time to sit down and spend a few hours writing! Also more good news: I'm writing a new story. For all ya Markiplier Lovers out there, it's a MarkXReaderXDark. Guaranteed to be pretty morbid indeed if Darkiplier the Social Manipulator is involved.
