Never Forget

Third Person POV

The boy is desperately trying to get back to the large castle and make sure his mother is still alive. His wound healed however it left a nasty scar. Just like all of the other times, he feels perfectly fine after the pain for a few seconds. But he is sure his mother isn't the same. He is positive of it...

And to make matters worse, he feels as if this whole thing was his fault. He completely forgot about what Erwin said about the pain and how his mother can feel the same. Now... He practically killed his mother! He let Erwin strike him because the pain didn't mean a thing. And now he has to pay the price for his reckless decisions...

The closer the castle in the distance gets, the faster the boys heart pounds. He is afraid. Afraid of the outcome. Afraid that his mother is actually dead. And if she was, he wouldn't be able to live with himself.

It is pouring rain outside and it strikes his face like small needles. This time, he can feel pain. Pain in his heart and he can't take it away.

Once he gets the horse back into its stable, immediately Jordan dashes inside of the castle, only to find that no one is awake. Everyone seems to be asleep but, once he walks upstairs to his parents room, he can't believe what he seen...

Levi's POV

(5 minutes before sudden attack)

Sora and I lay in our beds. We were up a while longer than we normally are. We talked and talked about small things. Old memories, and favorite things about each other.

(4 minutes before sudden attack)

"I never really asked you about your cleaning habits. Even though we have been married for so long, I never minded it but it makes me curious. Why do you like cleaning?" Sora asks me while she plays with a stray tuft of hair of mine.

"Uh... I'm not so sure. I just hate filthy things. Living in slums when your young, and having everything so dirty, it kind of made me angry once I actually got a decent place to live."

(3 Minutes before sudden attack)

Sora chuckles and starts to stroke my hair. "You have always had soft hair. And you always use the same shampoo. If I use it on my hair it doesn't work..."

(2 minutes before sudden attack)

"Tch. I don't know what you're talking about. You have naturally soft hair. Therefore, you're fine. Hm. You actually have soft skin too."

Sora blushes, and I smile. And I slowly pull forward.
(Final Minute)

Our lips connect. It has been such a long time since we have kissed. It was so passionate... I slowly bring her closer and, while minding her injuries once we stop, hug her. "I love you Sora."

"I love you too L-"

(Time is up)

Sora freezes and her eyes are widened. Her breathing becomes faster and she begins to cry in pain.

"W... What is this..." Sora stutters.

"Oi! Sora! What's wrong!" Then I notice her shoulder is twitching uncontrollably. Then, I see her shoulder, somehow, pop. The bone looks misconfigured... Then she begins to cough as if she is being jabbed in the stomach multiple times. I can't do anything but call someone.

"Jordan!!!" I scream. His room is next door so he should hear me. But after a few seconds, I hear a sound coming from the other side. Eren's room.

When he runs into our room, I immediately growl at him, go get Jordan! And Hanji! Something is happening to Sora!

Hanji is already in the room and looking at Sora. When Eren comes back without someone next to him, I immediately know where he is.

"He went to kill Erwin! I even told him not to!" I scream. Sora is panting and she stopped screaming. She seems to be slowly recovering from the pain, but, seconds that felt like forever, make her cry out in pain, and hold her side desperately as if something hit it. Then a painful looking gash forms, and blood seeps out of the wound.

"Le...vi.... Help... me..." Sora cries quietly and weakly. Hanji immediately gets her into the floor and she attempts to wrap up the wound. However....

Sora's POV

The blood won't stop flowing out of my body. I can feel the stabbing pain in my side and it won't subside... It feels so terrible that I want to just keel over and die. But... I think that is what's happening to me now.

Levi is by my side, screaming something but I don't understand what it was. Hanji, Eren, Mikasa and others fill our room, and stand over me like I am dying. Maybe... Maybe I really am dying. My vision gets hazy and then I can see flashes of my memories.

The night I met Levi.

The day he comforted me because of Lukas.

The day I joined his squad.

The day I earned his full trust.

The day he confessed.

The day a few months later we got married.

The moment when we wanted a child.

The day I found out I was pregnant.

The small things Levi had done for me when I was pregnant.

The moment Jordan was born.

The day Jordan began crawling.

The day Jordan began walking and talking.

The day's the three of us spent together.

The small things I want to keep having...

I can hear silence in the room I am in. Maybe, I really am going to die. Everyone backs away and I see... Jordan... Levi... The two people I cherish in this world. Jordan is holding my bloody hand. He brings his head down so his forehead touches my knuckles.

"Mother... Please don't die... I just got my life back... I may not have had memories of you, but I wanted to get to know you again... And live with you and father again... Please... Please... don't die..."

Levi kneels over me and he is crying, holding me in his arms. "Sora... I... I can't lose you. You have been through too much to die now... You have been on the brink of death so much times. You can't ever catch a break... But even if you are in pain, you always seem to smile right through it. Now that it is confirmed that you will die... I don't know what to think. I don't know how I will live without you... I wanted to grow old with you... I wanted to live the rest of my life with you... Please Sora. Don't..." He stops and sobs uncontrollably.

I weakly smile and bring my free hand up to touch his cheek. His eyes widen and he looks down at me with worry.

"Please Levi... Jordan... Don't be sad. I hate that... You two deserve everything. You deserve the world. I would have loved to spent the rest of my days here. But everyone's time comes eventually... No ones life can be perfect or go unscarred. Something happens and they learn eventually to overcome their sadness and move on. You two have to learn that. It may be hard... But all you have to remember is that I will be smiling from above and I won't ever forget you. Don't forget the good things, forget the bad. Forget the things that make you feel regret and tormented. Don't let the fears of the past hurt your future. Just be happy. And never...forget... that I love you guys...l

Oh... I think my time has come... My vision gets hazier and lighter. I can still see Levi. He is screaming something but all I can do... Is keep smiling.

Then, the light overtakes my vision... And I can't see anything...

April 17th 12:33pm

(day of Wedding Anniversary)

Sora Ackerman passes away from blood loss.

Lyrics to Song added:

Song Name: Namida No Kiseki
(Traces of Tears)
Album: Dearest II
Artist: Clear

Unending memories, overflowing tears
Flowing through the surface of time
The colored traces gradually fade

Even if fate is frozen in an invisible rain
The heat deep within this chest
Continues to proclaim an eternal love

The warmth enclosed in an embrace
Can only slowly drown in a deep sleep
No matter how much resistance there is
This meeting is destined for separation

If by chance, awakening comes
The ripples of memories far away will become
Like a shining light that will never be extinguished
Surely, it will happen someday

A prayer that extends the time where vows were exchanged
For eternity, yet it is left behind by the seasons
But even if it takes a hundred years, it will continue to wait

In the unending night, sighs continue to be heard
Yet following the beautiful memories
The heart remains unchanged

The pale traces of tears
The scattered tear drops
They are no more than dreams melded together
No matter how much we hold on

If by chance, awakening comes
Let the two of us silently meet in a vast future
These thoughts continue to pile up like waves crashing on the shore.
