Thread: Fight for Humanity ;; shyone and flux

Mikasa was quick to catchup to the rest of the pursuers as the blast caught her off guard and she swung along a wall, pressing her feet flat and firmly against it and watching from a distance at first before approaching. So, what Eren had assumed was right all along and this situation had just gotten a lot more dangerous. Other officers in the Scouting Legion had paused in their tasks to look on in awe and fright as the ghost titan made his debut, lashing out to Levi and capturing him scarily easily. Mikasa went to the nearest rooftop to the pair and looked on in a steadied, unwavering gaze. Her body tensed, not knowing in the moment what to do. If they were to try and latch onto the titans skin and propel towards him, then he might squash Levi effortlessly. But he had let him down. What was he doing? What was the purpose of all this? It looked to the young girl as if it were a ploy at trying to defend himself, playing the only cards he could. And then she realized that if it had been her in this position, she would have probably done the same thing. Charles was a titan shifter traveling inside the walls and about to go into a snake pit that he did not know how things would turn out once the MPs got there. Her darkened eyes softened slightly. She walked over to the edge of the rooftop nearest to the titan and looked up to the form, trying to focus on Charles and nothing else. At that time, Shena had arrived delayed. She wasnt faring well, slumping over in her standing position as her entire body felt like a very large weight. Shena is not doing so well, Charles. We want this to go over as smoothly as possible for your sake too. But to do that, you need to come in and tell us what happened to you, what you can remember about the outside. Mikasa tried to explain calmly. She did not know if she was trying his patience for a straight answer or not but Charles needed to calm down before he leveled their headquarters. Worsehe could hurt Eren in titan form or not. We are all working towards the same thing if thats what you mean Eren is with us and he is fine. You could be too. --- Shena had stayed on the ground for quite some time and then gathered herself back up. She knew that she would not serve any sort of useful purpose just staying in place regardless of her own health. It had been a few days since she had gotten a decent nights sleep and had ate very little in order to give the others in her group more rations. Going on such low energy, she knew that her body was starting to protest her keeping it up now and she would need to lie down soon unless she wished to pass out. However, right now was not the time to concern herself with her own well-being as the smoke and dust cleared and a pair of titans towered over all the trees and buildings. Ah she mumbled under her breath before she set forth into the air once more and ran along the few buildings rooftops to head toward the scene. When she arrived, she landed rather clumsily on the flat surface of the roof that Mikasa stood upon. The short distance had taken a lot out of her though and she swore under her breath as she lurched forward, her legs shaking slightly as she stood there without her blades in hand. She knew that she wouldnt be able to fight in her position. I she took in a deep breath and tried to straighten herself, forcing herself to project her voice out so that the titan shifter could hear her. Ill try my best to make sure you dont end up in a cage. It was a lot to take in at first. Im sorry Mikasa saw the girl wavering a bit and so she stepped over to her, placing her hands on her shoulders to keep her up still while they attempted to bring Charles into a more peaceful state of mind. It was then that Commander Erwin, who had arrived right after Mikasa nearby, spoke up. We will do what we can toensure your safety if youre willing to work with us. Is being inside the walls something that you want? Or is it something else? Compromises must be made in order to get anywhere. If there was something Charles wanted which certainly they thought so or else he would not have been willing to come this far inside the walls then they had to make sure he got something out of it if he wished for them to work together. Mikasa narrowed her gaze at that. She briefly recalled what Charles had said to her when she had been talking one-on-one with him. Human affection, something close to people who had been like him but not like him seeing as what he truly was. Pursing her lips together, she clenched a fist at her side. What a lonely life. Even as she had been in her tragedies, she had had Eren and his family to take her in and raise her. She had a home but with Charles, she was not sure if he had the luxury. And ten years without any human contact, she was beginning to understand why he would be skiddish, unable to understand how things worked here in civilization. She didnt say a word about this, though. She didnt want to make him feel vulnerable when already he was feeling so. Shena was watching closely although it was difficult to keep her attention focused. Mm- ah, thank you, she whispered to Mikasa as she assisted in keeping her steady. She would probably need some help in getting down to the ground and inside at this rate which made her feel all the more helpless. She hated to be a burden on the others like this and sometimes she could not help it as the changing seasons took their toll on her. But this was an unexpected turn of events that she found herself despising. She could not fight or even gather her voice to negotiate and ensure Charles that he would be okay. She had pushed herself too much and could only feel a tight grip in her chest, hoping that the excitement would not escalate any further.
