#i really wonder if there’s gonna be more titan shards for the rest of the group!?? this is so exciting :o

[luminousstardust]

fearne and ashton both carrying shards of the titans… matt saying that in the moment they retrieved the shard from the pit of lava that they were both destined to be there…… these two are connected by fate forever now and you CANNOT convince me otherwise

Expunged Part II

Drifter hefted his coat up over his shoulders as he fired up his ship from The Derelict where he transmatted Guardians in for his Gambit. It was tattered and scratched from the last time he wore it. On that cold, desolate hellhole planet with the shadows that snuffed out his crew's light. As for the rest of them well... only one came back to tell the tale. He activated the communications. "How you doin down there Moondust?"

"I've told you numerous times to refrain from using that nickname of yours Germaine." She said back through the crackled radio. The icy moon had a blisteringly cold atmosphere and an almost perpetual cycle of snowstorms.

"Any idea where this friend of ours might be hidin?" He asked and the ship jettisoned from its hangar toward Europa.

"We don't even know who sent the signal let alone what it is. They simply said that they mean to show us something." Eris says stumbling over a pile of snow laden with orange streaks encased in the ice.

"Okay well meet me in this clearing. Storm's too heavy where you are for me to land." He clicked on autopilot and sat back in his chair maneuvering his jade coin around in his hand then setting it ablaze. The ship sat down eventually and Eris walked up to it having crossed the field of ice and snow. She removed her shawl from around her mouth and watched as Drifter got out and stepped onto the moon. He was not two steps on that they heard a low hum coming from the north. They looked and saw a sparrow rounding a glaicer in the distance and speeding towards them. The sparrow disintegrated and the stranger jumped off. Drifter put a hand on his revolver. He turned to her.

"So. You must be this stranger we've been hearin about, the one who sent that signal." The stranger nodded and they saw what she was. Metallic.

"You're an Exo." Eris notes out loud. The stranger nods but does not speak. She walks past them and looks off at the distance.

"Good spot to land." Her voice sounds English with the reverb that always comes with Exos. Drifter and Eris look out at the horizon. A pyramid ship wedged into the surface like a chisel. This is what I brought you here to see."

~

Kenneth and Drake flew to Europa immediately after hearing of what they found. Ken got the signal from the Drifter and Drake from Eris, they knew full well the danger of the situation, Europa was not Vanguard approved, still they piled into Ken's ship

"This ship is a dump. What happened to your old one?" Drake asked looking around at the interior. It wasn't as cozy as Ken's usual one. No Golden Age relics.

"You think I'm gonna fly my good one in this far out? And risk never getting it back? Hell no I took the junker." Drake sighed and sat down in the cockpit next to him after swiping off the dust.

"Are you certain that this flying scrap is going to survive Europa?" He asked and looked out the window as they ascended off Earth and jolted into lightspeed. Ken was hesitant.

"Do you want the nice lie or the cold hard truth that you probably shouldn't even pick it's really not worth-"

"Kenneth."

"....maybe." Drake got up from the chair and grumbled to himself.

"I'm going to walk around." He said halfheartedly and exited the cockpit to find another hopefully not-too-disgusting place to sit and think. He found a broom and began to brush off a place for himself to sit and meditate on the last time he had gone out this far. Eve buzzed around him, she could tell something was troubling her Guardian but ever since his encounter with his father she had been quiet. He thought about calling Torra but he didn't want her to worry anymore.

Drake still felt ashamed for the events of that day. It was idiotic to think he could take on his father alone. He didn't want to involve anyone else because he didn't want anyone else to fix what he thought was his mess. It wasn't his mess. It was his father's, but none of that mattered now and not just others, but his own lover got hurt. When he woke up he saw Torra over him, he remembered the tears down her face. She had taken her hood off to try to get through to him, a fruitless attempt. As he contemplated what had happened he heard the door open and Eve quickly returned to her bag.

"We're here." Ken announced. His gear had changed drastically from his Last City garb. His hood was white as snow with a glow from his Solar Light running through it, he had a thermal mask over his face along with a wolf insignia on his chest piece. His arms had armoring around them and his boots were gray with pipes running through them. Probably some sort of heating system, it looked appropriate for the surroundings but jerry rigged together in classic Ken fashion.

"I was wondering when you would change." Drake said standing up from his spot on the floor. "You were gonna freeze to death in...whatever you had on before."

"For your information I got that from The Nine. But yeah no that ain't gonna stand up to the temperature of this place." He said fiddling with his Hunter knife.

"Right. Well then we should get going now." Drake looked around the ship then turned to Ken. "Where exactly is the exit?"

"Right there." Ken pointed with his knife to a small round hatch that looked about the size of a trash can.

"...on second thought, transmat me out Eve."

Eve did so and Drake was dropped into the white powder below as the ship flew off to find a suitable landing zone. He looked around through his hood and got hir bearings before summoning his sparrow and sidearm. The wind howled around him and he had to use thermals and the location point to guide him through the terrain, but eventually he came to where an glaicer collided with another creating a flat field of ice where he saw both the ship and where the signal came from.

Drake took his sparrow up over the cliff and onto the ice meeting up with Ken and speeding off toward the camp that was set up against the glaicer. The storm was not as bad here as the cliff blocked the bad weather so he could make out three figures. Eris was sitting by the fire, Drifter was standing and fiddling with a radio and another hooded Exo that Drake had never seen before was leaned up against the tent. She had a pulse rifle slung across her back.

"'Sup Drift? How's it goin." Ken asked and got off his sparrow. Drifter waved to him not moving from his place by the fire. Drake understood why, whoever this hooded stranger was was an Exo, with no feeling for the blistering cold, Eris was Awoken and Drifter was human.

"Aside from the storms that come up over the ridge every now and then, not too bad." Drifter answered and took a swig of something in his canteen, Eris said otherwise.

"We have much to talk about." She said gravely and the stranger walked forward to greet the Hunter and Warlock.

"Greetings." She said in a metallic voice. Ken recognized it was modeled after a posh British accent and along with her frame she would be eye candy for any interested Guardian. "My name is Elsie Bray and like Eris said, we have a lot to explain."

~

The pyramid ship, Elsie's origin and why they were here already were heavy subjects, but then she told them why they needed them here so urgently. Drake was astonished at all of it. He had studied the records left on Mars' Braytech facility before The Eclipse, Elsie was Ana's sister but not from their timeline. Instead she somehow was able to move through the Vex Network using her weapon as an anchor point. Fascinating. He would have numerous questions for Elsie, but those would have to wait.

"You have an Exo friend yes? He's a Titan." The two thirds of a strike team nodded. "He is here. But... he is lost to something. He's gone on a rampage destroying everything in his path in blind rage." This concerned Ken greatly. Drake couldn't believe it.

"No. No those days are over, Chao reset himself he is a different person now there's no way-" Ken put his hand on his shoulder and pointed to the ebony pyramid looming behind them. Drake lowered his head and stood up. "Where is he now?"

"He is almost here, but I know how we can help him. He's an Exo, we can use my bastard father's laboratory to reset him again and hopefully that will calm him down. Ken shook his head.

"No. Nu uh no way absolutely not, we are not resetting our friend he will lose everything he knows about us. We'll break his corruption just like we did Drake." Elsie nodded but did not look as sure of herself.

"Come with me, he's just up the glaicer. The storm will have moved on by now."

~

The three of them took their sparrows up to where an old communications satellite dish laid in ruin from both the weather and their corrupt Titan friend. Ken pulled up his hood that had blown off from the ride up and took out his handcannon from its holster. Drake readied his sidearm and Elsie followed suit with her weapon while they braced themselves. They could hear the crushing of metal coming from the radio tower and soon it would no longer hold, fallong over onto the outpost with a crash. On top of the building was a Titan in armor that was black as soot and looked like a knight. His armor had changed. He was breathing heavily.

The Titan turned his head and saw the three of them, then he did something that Drake nor Ken had ever seen. His chest exploded and his fist became encased in ice, he ran off the building jumping up and slamming it into the ground. Drake was so baffled at this that he had to be woken up by a shout from Ken.

"Drake get your head in the game man! We gotta take him down!" Ken shot rounds of his Sacramento at Chao but he slammed the ground and more ice shot up and the shots hit it instead. Then the Titan slid into them and they shattered into shards that exploded out and at Ken and Drake. This was not normal ice, it was sharp and tough as a rock crystal and it embedded itself into Ken's leg. He yelped out in pain.

"Agh- Son of a bitch that hurt! Drake! Don't let them hit you!" Drake ran over to Ken and put his healing rift down but it would only do so much and the Titan was not stopping to let the Hunter go through rehab. Chao slid into Drake and landed a punch knocking him off his feet and over Ken as he clutched his chest in pain. Elsie helps Drake up.

"I've called for Drifter and Eris, they'll be here shortly. Kenneth! Can you keep him busy?" Ken dodged out of the way of one of Chao's attacks and pulled out the shard with another scream.

"Yeah I can keep him busy but where the hell are you going?!" Elsie summoned her sparrow once she heard Drifter and Eris coming up the ridge.

"The Drifter and Eris are coming to help! I'm taking Drake somewhere where we can even the odds! We'll be back soon!" With that she and Drake sped off.

------------------------------------------

And here it is everyone! Part 2 of Chao's story here on Europa. I know this is like 2 seasons late and we're almost to Splicers (which looks really cool btw definitely look out for stuff around this new season) Hunt was the worst season for me and the burnout hit quick, I played enough of Chosen to hear all the voice lines of my favorite blonde mechanic during Battlegrounds and took down Caital's champ in the tank. Long rambling short: It's almost summer and I'm ready to write more stuff as the longest and hardest school year finally starts to wind on down. And as always I hope you enjoy! (Art was done by the Magnificent @scout-fang check out her stuff if you haven't but you probably have already lol)

I want to clarify a few things in Attack on titan chapter 138! The title: A long dream.

> Mikasa Ackerman.

What's important to notice is that Mikasa had a wrong impressionable of Eren from the very beginning of the story arc which is crucial for this chapter 138 and the ending of it (which was kinda awkward)!

1. The dream sequence meant to showcase Mikasa's ideal life. She always wanted to have a normal life and family yet again and live peacfully. Mikasa got to experience the cruelty of the world at the very young age. She was tought to have a strong conviction and fight the ruthlessness of species that holds the power over the others.

As we know Mikasa keeps relying on her strength and fighting her empathy that resolves in consequential outcomes. That comes from her (Ackerman) ability of seeing the beauty in everything. That made her see Eren's assassination (in the past and present) as something compassionating whereas for him it was a form of letting the anger out at oppression coming from certain inviduals. 👇

I'm not saying Eren doesn't care about Mikasa at all but it's definitely denying his idealistic beliefs and coviction towards achieving freedom (and to keep moving forward).

> Eren Jaeger.

2. As we know of Eren character that wants to move forward no matter what and he's willing to take the life of their friends if they try to stop them. Even if the world after turns out to be a hell for him there is a very little arguments that could prevent him from completing the rumbling.

As chapter 131 was the moment we saw Eren having the most doubts towards his actions (and future) about the turning point that ultimately makes him persuade the genocide. 👇

Mikasa seeing his uncertainty still believed later on that there is a chance for Eren to eventually turn back and live a normal life yet again. She didn't know Eren is already at a point of a path of no return at all That's something that goes back to the beginning of the story where she joined the survey corpse only for the sake of Eren and Armin, hoping she can keep them alive and live with them eventually.

The line:''Eren please come home'' keeps showing up multiple times in the story. Mikasa obviously had to give up on Eren but this unattainable world showcase that she still has the wrong idea about him and Eren won't do something as simple as put himself to death. 👇

The point is that Mikasa still see the kindness in Eren and doesn't realize he could kill her for the sake of freedom. Chapter 138 for me feels like an obvious conclusion that's gonna end up of Mikasa dying at the end of Attack on titan manga. 👇

If Eren was the one who sent Mikasa those dreams why didn't he think about them too while having a conversation with Zeke about her and the Ackermans in chapter 130 instead of remember Historia? 👇

See you later... Eren has to different shards between Chapter 1 (kid Eren) and chapter 138 (Mikasa).

Ch 1 Eren's pov. Ch 138 Mikasa's pov.

This chapter of Mikasa "dreaming", about what could've been if she chose a different answer in Marley. In a way, I still kinda think that Mikasa is looking at the kind side of Eren (not evil). Because there's no way in hell that Mikasa's confession... would've made him turn away like that during his Trost dream, we can see his mother, (Carla) father, (Grisha) Mikasa etc. 👇

But the way the scene played out, showed us that Eren desired freedom more. It's even clearer in the anime (for season 1), he reduces them to ashes, because his unique conviction desires something beyond what's in his mind but anyway, the point is that clearly Mikasa's answer wouldn't have changed anything for Eren. Now this is where I think that the "real", Eren intervenes in the dream and it allows it to link up to what happened in chapter 1. 👇

The titan shifter marks indicate that he's using the paths to Communicate with her (just like Armin in chapter 137). He's using this as his last effort to get her to ditch the scarf, which she ultimately refuses. And as we saw that bird in the sky could be a way of showing us (reader's) that (real) Eren is aware of what is currently happening and this is where they both experienced this dream and it brings everything full circles,.

But let's just reiterate that the "real" Eren, only intercepted the dream when he starts talking about the scarf and I think the comment by Louis (in chapter 126) supports the theory that was mentioned 2 year's ago even more.

Armin Alert: Goodbye... Eren in chapter 137. Eren's not dead!

Mikasa Ackerman: see you later... Eren in chapter 138. Eren's not dead!

Eren Jaeger: you are... free in the final chapter. Eren's alive.

What kinda worries and confuses me is how there's only one more chapter left for Isayama to finish. I wonder how it will turn out?

I'm predicting that we will get the rest of EH conversation and the theory to confirm who the father is! And many final deaths about to come soon.

I do hope you get my question. And i hope you stay safe. 😷

Thank you, I do try to stay safe, although my country is not on a lockdown 😅 hope you stay safe too!

I think this theory really makes sense, and I’m looking forward to the last chapter that will solve everything.

I’m a bit surprised you are posting such a kino stuff in the asks, when you could actually just post it yourself haha.

[shewolfofficial]

I have a very tiny request. Imagine Levi's gf (I don't care if she is part of the scouts or not) having a very hard time when she thought that her beloved was dead. I mean, she were at the hospital or something like that when they came back with him and when she saw that he weren't saying or doing anything, she feared that she will never hear his voice again... (please, I beg for a happy ending) (I'm begging that he is alive in the manga too)

I’ve put the reader ( you ) as apart of a small nurse group that helps the scouts and other soldiers, but since the whole Jaeger shit going down you’ll only be in a small team of medical staff in a little cottage/building

Warning: Mentions of Blood

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Humming you continue to scribble away at a spare piece of paper, rain pelting against the thin window that sat next to you as you slumped over behind your desk in boredom. It has been a few days since your team of medical staff had been needed, the last people that came in were two farmers that had an accident on their farm which you patched them up easily and quickly with the help of your co-workers. You were the head of the medical ward, or well, most people would say you’re the captain but you brushed off their formalities with a shy smile.

You would leave the titles of Captain and Miss for the real soldiers who constantly fought the titans nearly every month. Countless of times you have had to correct people and suggest to them that you would rather be called F/N or just ‘doc’.

Ah.. but one man always seemed to get under your skin when it came to that.

Your oh so wonderful boyfriend

Levi Ackerman.

Speak of the devil, you haven’t seen him in a few weeks since he’s most likely busy or else it’s the other way around. Being head of the medics was tough work but it all paid off in the end.

Slam!

Eyes snapping upwards you quirked a brow seeing one of your more timid and shy nurses hold open the door to your office with a horrified expression, completely breathless. ‘’Sarah? What is it? If it’s Wanda trying to inject you with a needle again just-’’ you started doing a subtle hand motion as you straightened yourself up behind your desk. ‘’No ma’am! It’s more serious! We have a critical patient that has just arrived! We can’t stop the bleeding!’’ Sarah screeched as you shot up instantly rushing past her, striding down the corridor after her you both arrived at the medical wing.

Sending both flap doors to open you slipped in and saw a figure laying on the bed completely surrounded by the staff, a familiar face at the sidelines watching the medics work. The person turned to you and their jaw dropped slightly upon seeing you by the door. 

‘‘Hanji?’‘

‘‘Oh my lord! Captain! We need you over here!’‘

Switching your orbs to the group huddled around the person laying on the bed you made your way through the crowd and arrived at the bedside, eyes widening you felt your heart drop at the sight. Levi lay motionless and unresponsive, blade shards dug in his face along with a large gash down his face through his right eye. Grumbling under your breath you ignored your quickened heart rate and barked for everyone to leave except Hanji and Sarah.

After managing to carefully stop the bleeding from all over his body you rested two fingers to his pulse noticing a slow heartbeat that was, unfortunately, wasn’t getting any better.  Nipping your lower lip you clasped your hands together and began to press down on his chest, hoping to get his heart to co-operate and pump more to a comforting stable level. Levi’s blood-caked your gloves and was slowly drying up. 

You continued to attempt to get his heart beating on a stable rate for a little while, tears slipping down your cheeks as you ignored them, Sarah stood next to Hanji patiently waiting for your next order.

‘‘Wake up..’‘

‘‘You’re not going anywhere Levi’‘

‘‘Come on.. Fight’‘

Dropping your head back down to his chest you carefully listened for his heartbeat again, the room went terribly silent as you worked and patched him up.

His breathing seemed to be fine, so was his heart rate, he would live most likely. Sighing in relief you turned back to the pair who stood back with glossy eyes. Sniffing you took a glimpse back to the ebony locked man who lay there as if he were in a sleeping wonderland.

‘‘He’ll live..He’ll be alright..’‘

Hanji’s expression softened as she took you in a hug, subtly thanking you before telling you to go get some rest and change.

// Time Skip \\

Laying back in your chair behind your desk you rested your hands on your chest looking up towards the pristine white ceiling above you. Silently sitting there you heard quiet muffled chatter from outside your office, one person seemed to be really scared of the other since the amount of stuttering you’d often hear from behind the oak door.

Next moment your door opened, in came in Sarah with a ruby red face and a frightened expression helping Levi on crutches inside. You swore you almost felt your eyes bulge out of their sockets at the sight of Sarah holding the door open for the stubborn man who limped in. Twisting her gaze to you Sarah smiled awkwardly ‘’ah-h-heh ma’am! Captain Levi wanted to see you, I tried to s-stop him but he wouldn’t have it any other way’’ the petite girl explained squeaking a little from the side look Levi shot her. Sighing you pinched your nose as Levi casually plot himself down in front of you. ‘’It’s fine, thanks for at least trying Sarah, you’re dismissed’’ you told the girl who nodded and left shutting the door behind her.

Drifting your eyes to the male who wore a patch over his right eye you cocked an eyebrow before sighing and sitting back in your seat. ‘’You’re gonna frighten the poor girl to death Levi, what made you want to come and see me, you could’ve just asked one of the team to fetch me’’ you say as Levi grumbles a bit dropping the crutches to the wooden floor underneath him. ‘’I hope you’re not expecting me to stay in bed, every day until I get better L/N’’ the male shot back as you tiredly rolled your eyes.

‘‘Men these days..’’

‘‘Tsk women..’‘

You giggled lightly at him resulting in Levi smiling a little after earning a quiet laugh from you. Scooting your chair in towards the desk you propped your elbows up on the solid wood, intertwining your fingers you rested your chin on them looking at Levi who glanced around the room.

‘‘I know that face... You’re thinking about something aren’t you’‘

‘‘Maybe I am, maybe I’m not... You’ll never know’‘

‘‘You’re either criticizing my cleaning skills or thinking about god-knows-what’‘ you chuckle as Levi snaps his head towards you with a blank expression before nodding subtly. A smile crept onto your lips whilst Levi watched you before you suddenly leapt across the desk and pressing a cheeky kiss to his lips catching him completely off guard. 

Sitting back down in your chair with a proud smirk you saw the flustered blush n Levi’s cheeks as he scowled. Crossing his legs he rested his arms on the armrests either side of him not taking his orbs off your figure in front of him. 

‘‘Cheeky little brat.’‘
