~ Don't judge a book by its cover'till you've read the entire book ~ Jamie Lee Curtis

(A/n : In the previous chapter of Humanity's Strongest Ally)

The one who was standing in front of them was Raphael Yeager himself, but the difference was that his transformation gave him what seemed like a growth spurt of let's say..... an eighteen meters (approximately fifty nine feet) tall to be exact!!!

Oh boi they sure weren't ready for that.

(A/n : And now the continuation)

(A/n : Author's POV)

(A/n : Play this music)

None of them was sure how it happened or what was the logical explanation of it. It seemed that there was more to Raphael's Titan form than meets the eye.

Mikasa : '*In her mind* How did this happen? Was there anything wrong with his transformation into a Titan?', she thought to herself.

Hanji : "That's both strange and fascinating at the same time!!", she exclaimed, fixing her glasses, although her mind was trying to comprehend and explain what was happening in front of her. It was so bizarre to see a human, much less a shifter being Titan sized without any extra... Titan characteristics it seemed like something out of the pages of a fictional novel.

Raphael : "* sighs softly * Can we continue with the sparring test? I know that both you and I try to find out what happened to me, but I'm still itching for the test to happen.", he said to Hanji calmly, getting her of guard for a bit.

At the same time as he said it, Eren's Titan form had given a low growl. Was Hanji really that forgetful of the sparring test she had planned for him and Raphael?

Was he able to read her mind or was her expression betraying her intentions that easily? Judging by the looks she was getting from the others though, yeah... it was definitely the latter one.

Hanji :" * looks at Raphael and Eren * Ready...", she said to the both of them as both Raphael and Eren had taken a battle stance.

Eren's battle stance was something that you could see from a kick boxer. His Titan form's upper body was turned towards Raphael. His head was slightly tilted forwards his left hand was bent and close to his head, near chin level, whilst the right was slightly less bent, pointing towards his opponent.

The fingers of both hands were clenched into fists.

(A/n : Eren's Battle stance)

Raphael's stance on the other hand was looking more different, more foreign. His body was sideways, left side towards Eren, back towards the HQ, front side towards Hanji and the others, albeit at a further distance from them.

His head was slightly tilted forwards, his right hand's forearm was slightly bend at a ninety degrees angle at the level of his waist. His left arm was extended, although the forearm of it was bent at a ninety degree angle, the back sides of his hand and his forearm were turned towards Eren.

The fingers of both of his hands appeared to be clenched into fists as a crystal substance appeared. He crystallized his fists to the point that they appeared like gloves.

(A/n : Just like that, but replace :

Jin Kazama (my main in Tekken) with Raphael)

(A/n : Stop the previous music and begin with this one)

Hanji : "Fight!!", she said to them, although the both of them appeared to be standing still for a few minutes, seeming to measure one another.

Well, that's what someone could think if Eren's Titan didn't roar loudly, charging head first towards Raphael, throwing a volley of punches towards the Titan sized teen, having the latter to dodge them with minimal effort.

Armin : " Raphael's reaction speed is higher than before!!", he said shocked.

At the last hit, he tilted his head to the left, avoiding the punch and countered with a hard hit at the former's gut, having Eren's Titan to stagger.

(A/n : Just like that, but replace :

UI Omen Goku with Raphael

Jiren with Eren's Titan.)

Raphael : "Did you think that you could hit me by trying to hit me? You'll need more than that.", he said to him and ducked under another one of Eren' attacks, dodging it as he crystallized his foot, proceeding to deliver a nasty roundhouse kick with his back foot targeting the latter's Titan form's gut.

(A/n : Just like that, but once again replace :

Jiren with Eren's Titan

Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta with Raphael)

Mikasa : ' *In her mind* Even in this form, he's deceptively fast. Wait a minute, that's it!! This form of his gets rid of most of the defensive capabilities that his Titan had in exchange for being more agile and faster', she thought to herself, finally figuring out the secret behind Raphael's new form.

Meanwhile Raphael's kick had the result of knocking Eren away from him and flat on the ground, lifting debris and dust in the air as a result of the massive ground shake.

(A/n : Meanwhile in the HQ)

Everything was going well for Levi and the rest of the cadets. He was about to make a tea and chill out for a bit, but everything went south for him once a massive ground shake had happened, shaking the HQ. That was the last straw for him.

Levi : " What the hell happened?!!", he asked towards the cadet that entered in the HQ kitchen.

Random Cadet #1 : "*salutes* Sir Levi!! You won't imagine what is happening outside!!", he said to him as Levi had followed her with a sour look at his face and a vein popping up on his forehead.

He looked like he was about to beat somebody to death, but all that anger was replaced with shock seeing the commotion that was happening outside. A Titan sized cadet was sparring with a Titan.

Yup, he definitely needed to get a new supply of tea leaves since the current one seemed to be so far past its expiration date that it was making him to start hallucinating.

He had went towards Hanji furiously, emitting what could be heard as menacing Levi noises and oh boy, his face was that angry that multiple vains on his forehead seemed to be about to burst with how angry he was.

Levi : "Oi four eyes!! What the hell is going on!? Did both of the Yeager cadets decided to go batshit or something?!!", he asked her in a not so polite way.

Hanji : "They're not going out of control, *mutters under her breath* for now at least. I just had them to be in a sparring test. I swear!!", she said to him.

(A/n : Back at the sparring match)

Eren had stood up from the ground and oh boy, the look on his face wasn't the happiest. He had charged towards Raphael roaring like a wild animal whilst his eyes were glowing green with immense anger.

Raphael on the other hand had tried to stop him by kicking him in the face or so he assumed as Eren's Titan had proceeded to grab him by the leg and deliver a punch on Raphael's face, knocking him down, shaking the ground heavily once again upon impact.

Reiner : "What strength", he commented, eyes wide at the fight.

Eren had then tried to get closer to Raphael, only for the latter to fake a low kick, having Eren's Titan to jump, only for him to crystallize his feet and double kick him on the face as he stood up.

(A/n : Just like that but replace :

G1 Optimus Prime with Eren's Titan

G1 Megatron with Raphael

(You don't want to know how long it took me to find this gif 💀))

Morblit : "Cadet Raphael's regeneration abilities are higher too! He's completely unscathed even though he was punched on his face by cadet Eren's Titan!!", he exclaimed.

Raphael on the other hand had brought his hand to his nose, seeing the drops of blood that fell on the palm of his hand, something that made him chuckle.

Raphael :" Well look at that. All of this for a few drops of my blood. Playtime is over ", he said to him with a small smirk, mockingly licking his blood off of his currently crystallized hand.

(A/n : Just like this, but replace :

Upper Moon Three, Akaza with Raphael)

Levi :" That's disgusting ", he admitted with a tick mark on his forehead. His clean freak side showing.

Hanji : " OH MY GOD HE'S SO GOD DAMN COOL!!", she shouted, shaking Levi like a ragdoll.

(A/n : Just replace :

Red haired girl with Hanji Zoe

Blonde haired girl with Levi)

Levi : " Chill out four eyes, I'm not a fucking doll!!", he said to her, pushing her away from him.

(A/n : Meanwhile at the sparring match)

As this was happening Eren's Titan had thrown a punch towards Raphael, a punch so fast Raphael didn't have the time to dodge or so he thought.

Raphael had dodged it at the nick of time, ducking under Eren's hand as he proceeded to wrap his hands around the latter's Titan form's waist and swoop his feet from beneath him, knocking him on the ground.

Berthold : '*In his mind* That's Annie's move!!!', he thought to himself.

Raphael on the other hand without losing time he had managed to turn Eren's Titan form so that it's back was facing him, pinning him on the ground by his head.

Raphael : " It's over", he said to him in a monotonous tone, hitting the nape of Eren's Titan at a pressure spot, shutting it down like a turn off switch and knocking the latter's true body out of the nape as if it was spring loaded.

(A/n : Stop the previous music here and begin this one)

Morblit : "R-Raphael Yeager won!!!", he said with a slight stutter.

Connie : "I-Impressive!!", he said in awe.

Petra : "Seems that we've lost most of the fun", she whined with a small pout.

Oluo : "*clicks his tongue* Quit your whining Petra, we had to follow strict orders from none other than Captain Levi himself. There's no point in fun whilst following orders, it'll only distract you from them.", the Levi impersonator scolded her.

Eld : "Shut up Oluo, we don't want you biting your tongue again", the second in command of the Levi squad said to him, rubbing the bridge of his nose.

He was about to continue scolding Oluo about it, but they had stopped once they had seen the view up ahead.

A white haired cadet, the size of 18 meters (approximately 59,1 feet) tall being next to the steaming corpse of what they assumed to be a Titan.

The reaction of each member of the Levi squad to what they were seeing was different, from member to member.

Oluo was left staring as his mouth was partly open as he was about to leave a disturbing noise that it could only be described correctly as unholy screeching.

Eld was still thinking about it, trying to comprehend how and why did this happen and what's the possibility of it happening.

Gunther was at the same trance as the other two, the difference being that he was blinking, trying to wake up from what he assumed to be a particularly bizarre dream.

Once this method didn't manage to wake himself up, he had tried to pinch on his hand as hard as humanly possible. He had managed to elicit a yelp from himself, but instead of the results he had hoped for - basically to quote-on-quote "wake up" on his bed - he was seeing in both surprise and shock that the massive teen was still in front of him.

Yup, definitely not a dream.

Finally, Petra being the most childish of all of them, she had a much different reaction. She had approached him curiously, her curiosity easily seen in her dark brown colored eyes.

Petra : "Hello!!", she chimed towards him, looking up at him with a small smile due to the size difference between the two of them, having her to be about as tall as four or five inches (about 12,7 centimeters respectively) compared to him, give or take some.

Raphael : "Hello, to whom I have the pleasure of speaking to?", he asked her politely about it with a small smile.

Petra : "I'm Petra, Petra Ral, nice to meet you...", she said to him calmly extending her hand to him.

Raphael : " Raphael Yeager. Raphael for short.", he said to her kinda awkwardly, extending his index finger towards her hand for a finger-to-hand handshake, as awkward as it may seemed.

The rest of Levi's squad had nodded their heads slightly, realizing that the cadet before them was one of the two Yeagers. The siblings that were brought to the military court for possessing the ability to shift into Titans.

Although they knew his identity, there's something that wasn't making a lot of sense considering that whilst they were coming there, they had seen Hanji Zoe and her right hand man, Morblit getting Eren at the infirmary.

Eren whilst this was happening looked a lot more... human sized than Raphael's current, for lack of a better term predicament.

Levi : "Why are the four of you here right now?", Levi asked them, coming to their view, having the squad to salute towards him, whilst Raphael appeared to be looking around as if he was looking for someone.

Raphael : "Did you heard anything?", he asked them whilst looking around, having the squad to try and hold in their laughs for their best seeing that Levi was growling lowly.

He had then looked down, feeling Mikasa tug his sleeve.

Raphael : "Do you need something Mikasa?", he asked her politely with a small smile that instantly dropped and his face had paled seeing that Levi was close to him.

Raphael : "Sir Levi!", he yelped, saluting.

Levi : "I'll remember this", he grumbled towards the giant cadet and sighed heavily seeing that Raphael was looking towards him curiously.

Levi : "Do I have anything on me and you're looking at me like that?", he hissed towards the part Titan, kinda irritated by the fact that Raphael was literally looking at him, almost like how a Titan would look at its next meal.

Raphael : "Could you please repeat what you've said, Captain Levi?", he asked him politely.

Levi : "Did you not hear my question?", he asked him, his right eye seemed to get irked. He was losing his patience with him.

Raphael : "Not that, what you've said before it", he said to him calmly.

Levi : "What? You didn't hear it? How the hell did it happen?", he asked him in a mocking tone.

Raphael : "I didn't hear you from up here", he said to him and judging by the laughs of the rest of the cadets, the squad and Erwin - even though the latter was poorly trying to hide the laugh - Levi had enough of this.

(A/n : Stop the music here)

Levi : "YOU SON OF A...", he didn't manage to finish what he was saying since Raphael had loosely wrapped the fingers of his free hand around him and used his thumb to close Levi's mouth shut.

Raphael : "Careful now, we wouldn't wanna ruin this AoT X OC fanfic by something coming fowl that's coming out of your mouth now, would we?", he asked him politely with a small smirk.

Author-Sama : "Stop breaking the fourth wall!!!", the author's voice shouted towards them.

Raphael : "Sorry Author-Sama!!!", he apologized quickly.

(A/n : Take Two)

(A/n : Play this song)

Raphael : "Dare to continue what you're about to say and no one is going to be able to stop me from paying you back for what you've done to Eren in the Military Court.", he said to him sternly, looking menacingly down at him as if he was staring down in Levi's soul.

His seemingly purple irises in this form were bleeding into a bright red color like two bright, all devouring pools of fire as his pupils dilated into slits similar to those that someone could see at the eyes of a serpent or a demon.

(A/n : Just like that, but replace :

The Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji with Raphael.

(This is also a friendly reminder of who's Raphael's voice claim in case you didn't remember 😉))

The presence that was emitting from Raphael was that cold and evil that it was causing chills to run through everyone's - shifter or not - spinal cords like fresh, freezing water down the waterfall of a mountain.

The feeling of fear that was caused to them by Raphael's gaze was similar to the primordial fear of a prey at the claws of its predator. A predator that was looming above its prey ready to devour it. A feeling that people who were weak willed had fainted just by being at its presence.

Raphael : "Am I understood, Captain Levi? If I am then nod.", he said to him in an ominous tone whilst he removed his thumb from Levi's mouth and for an added measure, he started tightening his grip on Levi.

That's until Levi nodded. Well... he didn't seem to be acting all high and mighty without his ODM Gear after all.

Raphael :" It appears that I'm understood then. Good for you.", he said to him with a small close eyed smile, releasing him from his grip.

(A/n : Just like that, but once again replace :

The Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji with Raphael)

To the other cadets that didn't knew anything about Raphael, they were taken aback by his smile, not used to it, but seemingly letting it slide.

Did he really meant what he said to Levi or was he just toying with him? That's the thought that was passing through the heads of most of the cadets and some of the Captains there.

On the other hand, Mikasa, Jean, Levi, Petra, Oluo, Eld, Erwin and Gunther weren't fooled by Raphael's smile. Instead, they were tensing at the sight of it. Only people who knew or were forced to learn how to differ fake emotions from real ones could feel the sheer malice that was being masked behind this supposedly friendly and warm smile.

It was as if a bloodthirsty wolf was trying to mask his presence by wearing a sheep's wool.

If Levi was seeing the Titan shifters as monsters that he had to tame, Raphael to Levi was seeming like a demon that he could only see in his worst nightmares.
