Chapter 44 (Rewritten)
It was suppertime and you were all surprised to be served meat for the first time in forever. It was all exciting at first until Sasha went berserk when eating the meat.
Which ended up grabbing ahold of the whole meat on the table and just needed to be stopped.
Connie tried his best to calm her down, but she ended up biting into Jean's wrist and punching Marlowe at the nose as well as Mikasa at the chest.
It was amusing to you at first, but later grew more concerning. You helped up by pinching a certain part in her neck that ended up knocking her out.
"Whoa! How'd you do that!?" Connie asked.
You looked at Connie equally surprised and shrugged, you had no idea that would actually work.
Sasha was later tied up by Connie and Eren while you stared at her slight disappointment.
"Oh, Sasha...(_ _|||)" You thought while shaking your head and smiling slightly.
You continued on with supper, and you just stared at the meat in front of you. Something about the meat in front of you made you uncomfortable.
Although you wanted nothing more than to sink your teeth into it, you refused to even reach for it and take a bite. And with everything in your memories slowly coming together, you had a feeling you might know the reason.
"Y/n."
You looked up to find everyone staring at you.
"You barely touched your plate. Are you okay?"
You quickly nodded and just ate the meat. You had a sickening feeling as you did, but you just tried your best to ignore it.
You really need to stop spacing out. They're growing more and more suspicious of you.
"Well, geez, they don't feed you here. You're acting like you never eaten in years." Marlowe said.
"Shut up." You thought while glaring at his direction.
And to add more onto your nerves, Jean and Eren broke into another unnecessary fight. Before you knew it, the two of them were screaming at each other.
It went from a screaming fight to Eren throwing the first punch. A crowd gathered around them as the two punched each other back and forth. Mikasa, Armin, and you could only watch in disappointment as the two threw punches.
"No matter what...these two are always going for each other's throats (;一ω一||)" You thought as you sweat dropped a bit.
"Should we stop them?" Armin asked.
"No, let them settle it out a bit" Mikasa replied.
"Mm-hm." You hummed in agreement.
Eventually, the two grew tired and Captain Levi ended up kicking them both onto the ground.
"That's enough celebrating...go to bed..."
Jean gagged for a moment before throwing up. You cringed in disgust.
"And clean that up..." Levi continued.
"Yes sir!" everyone said as they all dispersed. You began to get up to help Eren but then heard muffled wailing sounds. Sasha has awoken and began fighting through the ropes.
Feeling pitiful, you quickly came to her aid and ungagged her. You also untied the ropes; she immediately hugged you.
"Thank you, Y/n! Thank you, thank you! You truly are a goddess in disguise."
"Aah...your welcome Sasha (;^ω^)."
You later helped Armin guide Eren outside by grabbing Eren's other hand and throwing it over my shoulder. Mikasa trailing closely behind you three.
You all arrived outside and sat yourselves down on the steps. Eren grunted in pain.
"I can't believe I'm saying this but...shouldn't you guys watch out for me more?" he asked as you set him down gently.
"Considering how quickly you heal, I wasn't that worried about it." Armin replied.
"Some friends you are..." he mumbled.
You gave Eren a hard smack on the head.
"OW!" He glared at you; you glared back.
"Oh, come on. Don't give me that look." Eren retorted.
"Look, you started it, so don't complain," Mikasa said.
"Plus, it's good to see you feisty again." Armin chimed in.
You proceeded to swing your legs back and forth, humming a soft tune to yourself. Eren gave out an emotional speech, he brought his hand up to your head and ruffled it a bit.
"Knock it off."
"That's what you get for punching me!" He teased.
You let out a quiet laugh and thought about what he said. 'Finding our own strength?' You stopped swinging your legs and lifted your hand up.
Suddenly, they all stopped talking and looked to see a man that looked similar to Hannes talking with a fellow scout. Your eyes glistened a bit. You remember Hannes.
You didn't quite know him as well as Mikasa, Eren, and Armin. All you remember is seeing Eren throw punches at him while he would laugh on his drunk self was blocking the punches Eren threw.
"Once we retake back Wall Maria and defeat all of our enemies. Can we go back to how things used to be?"
'I don't think that's possible.' You wrote in your journal.
"There's more out there, you know," Armin spoke.
"The sea..."
You smiled at Armin. Of course, he still holds onto that dream. That has always been Armin's dream to see the sea.
"Remember? A body of water so big that merchants would waste their whole lives and still wouldn't get the salt out. There's so much beyond the walls. Not just titans."
Armin then proceeded to talk about the sea through different places, it made you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. You would want to see all of those things.
Wait...the sea?
You felt a shiver go up your spine.
You looked forward. If you were to go beyond the walls...would you finally remember who you were and where you came from?
Armin then stood up.
"Alright then! Let's start by finding the sea! I can tell you still don't think it's real, Eren. But you'll see! It does exist!"
Eren chuckled.
"Okay, whatever you say. I guess we'll have to check it out then"
"That's not good enough. You have to promise!"
"Oh great...here we go again," Mikasa mumbled as you giggled.
Then you felt familiar smell. You looked around as you tried to pinpoint the direction.
You found a hidden corner and lifted an eyebrow.
That smell...is that Captain Levi?
"What do you say, Y/n!? Do you want to explore the outside world along with us!?" Armin asked as he stared at you excitedly.
You smiled and stood up.
"MMM-HMM!" You let out the loudest noise you could make.
"That's the spirit!" Armin smiled before ruffling your hair.
*Time Skip*
It soon became the down that we'll travel back to Wall Maria and retake it. To be honest, you were scared to go back there. It was the same exact day the titans came and ruined everything. And also, the day you lost your grandparents.
You felt tears well up in your eyes, but you quickly wiped them away. You have to be strong! It was what grandpa asked for you to do!
You mentally motivated yourself in your head.
"Plan to retake Wall Maria is a go! (*≧∀≦*)"
