Outside the Walls of Orvurd District
They walk up to the gateway and saw that there was a net blocking it. Meaning the enemies are now defending.
Moblit and Armin helped Hanji walk while Connie helped y/n but she was doing way better than Hanji.
The yellow light through the gateway was still shining.
"A Titan transformed?" Levi asked.
Then the pillars started breaking, "Th-This place is gonna' collapse!" Sasha said.
"Captain. Give me a few more minutes... then I can transform." y/n weakly said.
"It's no use. Who knows if we'll even make it out alive, even if you transform and hold up debris from crashing on us." Levi replied.
More debris fell, "Captain! The hole!" Armin pointed and saw there was an opening.
"Armin! Moblit! Take Hanji! Connie! Take y/n. Get out of here!" Levi ordered.
"Captain!" Y/n called out.
"Leave!" he ordered and left to go towards the light and so did the others.
"Eren..." y/n mumbles under her breath as Connie takes her away on his 3DM gear.
~*~
Y/n flutters her eyes open. She looks around and sees she's in a wagon. She slowly gets up looks around but the wandering of her eye stops as she met with farmilar turquoise eyes. The eyes she fell for.
"Eren...?" she mumbles.
"Y/n..."
She then gets up and hugs him but quickly pulls out of it to look at his face, "What happened?" she asks as her eyes wandered her surroundings, "And why does it feel so- Historia... You're safe as well."
"Hello, y/n." Historia smiles slightly.
"Are you guys alright. What happened?" y/n asks.
"Look behind you." Eren told her and she turned her head around to see the most humongous Titan someone could possibly see. You'd expect her to gasp or have her eyes widen but she stares at it with an annoyed face before sitting back down and groaning.
"I was knocked out for twenty minutes and this happens..." y/n sighs in annoyance with her face back to her usual stoic expression.
A horse then came over to them, "Erwin." Levi says.
"Is everyone alright?" Erwin asks as he peaks into the wagon.
"Hanji's our only casualty." Levi says and Hanji waved her hand, gesturing she's fine.
"Seems like nothing too serious. Well done, everyone." Erwin complimented.
"I've got a whole slew of things to report, but first..." Levi says.
"What's that Titan?" Erwin asks.
"Rod Reiss." Levi answers and Erwin and Y/n gives a slightly shocked look which is rare. "I think we need your call on this, Commander."
"Regardless, we don't have time to stand here and chat. Return to Wall Sheena." Erwin ordered.
"You're gonna let it crawl up the wall?" Levi asks.
"To Orvud District, actually." Erwin responded and continued ahead.
~*~
Eren and Historia explained everything that happened and all the information they knew to Hanji.
"Let's put this all together... Basically, Rod Reiss was after the Founding Titan that dwells within Eren. But the Founding Titans true potential won't work unless if it's in the hands of Reiss blood. Even if a Reiss obtains the power, they're controlled by the First King's will and refuse to liberate humanity from the Titans. Well that's interesting... Any of this sound farmiliar to you, y/n?" Hanji asks.
"Yeah, a little." y/n responds.
"In other words... we still have an option. If that Titan eats me, Rod Reiss will become human. Which means it possible to still have the true Founding Titan." Eren says but y/n shook her head as she numbly looks at the ground.
"Seems that way. We could capture Rod Reiss once he becomes human. Undo the First King's brainwashing. If we did that it could save humanity. Plus, Eren... Are you saying you're fully prepared for that to happen?"
...
"I am."
Y/n only looks at him with shock and confusion.
"Eren, you can't..." y/n says.
"If the Founder gets into the royal blood again, Natalie... the people of Paradis's memories will be wiped again. I am assigning you to steal the Thunder Titan in order to steal the Founder."
"Yes, Owl. I am honored with this mission as an Eldian restorationist to help the Eldian Empire."
Y/n groans as she caresses her head and asking herself 'Whos memories are these? Eldian restorationist? What is that?' She rubs her head more as the memories give her a head ache and Historia's annoyingly high pitched voice talks about the Founder and killing Rod Reiss, making y/n headache worst.
"Samuel. I will always love you... Even if I do marry King Fritz..."
"Meet me here at the forest whenever you can. I will be waiting for you."
"Gugh!" y/n groaned catching everyone's attention.
"Y/n? Are you alright?" Eren asks as he tries to put a hand on y/n's shoulder. Her eyes were wide and her teeth were gritted. Both of her hands with on her head.
"If the Founder gets into the royal blood again, Natalie... the people of Paradis's memories will be wiped again. I am assigning you to steal the Thunder Titan in order to steal the Founder."
The voice rings in y/n's head over and over again.
"Just shut UP!" y/n yells as she clenches her eyes.
"I haven't even said anything-"
"QUIET! SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP!" y/n yells.
"Hey, idiot. Stop acting like a brat and tell us what's going on." Levi harshly ordered.
"If the Founder gets into the royal blood again, Natalie... the people of Paradis's memories will be wiped again. I am assigning you to steal the Thunder Titan in order to steal the Founder."
"If... Founder... royal blood... Natalie..." y/n mumbles. By this time everyone is looking at her with confusion.
"What are you trying to say?" Eren asks.
"... people... memories... wiped again... assignment... steal... Thunder... Founder..." y/n mumbles to herself but then shoots up with wide eyes and going silent.
She then grabs Eren by both his shoulders and brought his face so close to hers their noses were practically touching, "Eren! Don't feed yourself to Rod Reiss or and royal-blooded person." she ordered.
"W-Why?" Eren stuttered and gave her a confused look.
"Yes, if someone that doesn't have royal blood inherits the Founding Titan they don't get the Titan's full power and potential. But if someone with the royal blood inherits it, they are cursed by the First King's ideology of peace and are forced to wipe the memories of people who know about the outside world and Titans." y/n explains and she lets go of Eren's shoulder and sinks in her seat while letting out a big exhale like she was holding her breath.
"How... do you know that?" Eren asks.
"I am getting memories that aren't mine. They give me little snippets of someone's life and I see them. Maybe it was my past life... who knows." y/n says and her face went back to her usual stoic expression.
~*~
Y/n was tying up her horse until Levi asked everyone to gather around.
"Historia. I forgot to tell you... We need you to do something." Levi says.
"Yes?"
"Erwin's orders. When this battle is over. Become Queen." Levi says and everyone gasps.
"Queen?! Historia?!" Sasha says.
Levi then went on and on about how people won't listen to the regiment but will listen to whoever is from the true royal bloodline.
Everyone expected Historia to be stoked about it but she looked down in sadness, "I..." Historia says.
"Um, Captain?" Connie raised his hand which y/n slapped down, "What was that for?- I mean..." Connie clears his throat, "I-I'm sure you heard what Historia said earlier, but... Well, uh... By leaving her father, she finally broke free from the burden, I guess you could say... And yet, again..."
"What? If you have something to say, say it." Levi ordered.
"Uh, um..."
"I-In other words... Connie's trying to say... Historia broke free from the Reiss family and has finally found herself. And now you're forcing her into another role? Isn't that...? Isn't that... not fair to her?" Jean finishes.
"All right." Historia says.
"Eh?" y/n looks at her in confusion.
"My next duty is Queen, right? Understood." Historia says.
"Historia..." Armin says.
"Thanks for your concern. However... Captain I have one condition." Historia glared.
"Hmm?" Levi asks.
"I want to fight too."
~*~
Historia heroically walks into the war room with her 3DM gear like the rest of Levi Squad and stands next to y/n.
"When you're Queen, say I was your biggest inspiration." y/n joked.
"Eh?" Historia says.
"And punch that miget in the face." y/n finishes.
"We've determined the location of Rod Reiss' Titan. It's approaching Orvud. At this rate, it should reach Orvud District by dawn." a Garrison soldier reported.
"Understood." Erwin says.
"Commander Erwin, we'd all like to hear your plan." a Garrison soldier says. "How do you intend to evacuate the citizens in time?"
"We won't evacuate." Erwin bluntly says.
"Wh-What?"
"We'll have the citizens remain in Orvud." Erwin says and all the Garrison soldiers gasp and murmur.
"Are you insane?" the Garrison soldier asks.
'Heh... Maybe he is. That's why he's the Commander.'
