章 7: CHAPTER SIX
What?
Unable to process what just happened, Jake and his subordinates Stared At the dead titan as it slowly Slumped backward, Free-falling towards the ground "head" first. If there's a head. . .
Thud!
The loud sound of flesh hitting the ground Wokejae and his subordinates from their shock as they've all started to dart around the trees, Looking for some safe spots as they've surveyed the area to look for the culprit behind the cannon fire.
"What the hell just happened?!", Exclaimed Samantha, One of the female members of this time's Expedition Corps, Confusion and fear Creeping up to her face as her hand gripped her Hand grips, Ready to draw out her blades at the face of any unexpected danger.
"I don't know either! But there's one thing that I do Know, And that is we should shut the f*ck up before the thing that Blew That bastards body Into smithereens Turns it's attention to us!", Half Shouted Half whispered a Man around The age of fourty towards her.
Everyone nearby the two Soldiers nodded their heads like a chicken at the man's Words, Obviously Agreeing to his Logic and Reasoning. Samantha, After hearing the man's Words, Immediately clamped her mouth shut. Her eyes Darting around as she and everyone around her Looked for the Culprit behind the Titan's Death.
Jake, perched on a branch not that far from the two, Was Utterly oblivious To their bickerings as the near death experience from earlier is still lingering Throughout his Raging heart. Fear Now slowly subsiding As his pale face is now returning to normal.
What the hell just happened? One moment the titan was about to Chomp down on me then the next second It suddenly exploded into pieces. What. . .
. . .
2 kilometers away from the area where the scene took place, The cybertronian "Pet" Of megano was Located On top of a Tree. His wings Now absent as it now turned Into A Pair of thick, Metallic ant legs. It's clawed ends Stabbing themselves to the thick branch, Acting as The cybertronian's Stabilizer and Support. Support for what? On his belly, A Large section was Hatched open as a Stubby, Dangerous looking Cannon of some sort was poking outwards, It's Muzzle Still smoking Heatedly After firing an Anti-Material Round. His glowing blue optics constricting with delight before Retracting everything back to his body. Retracting everything back to normal. To his gorgeous, Majestic body.
"Alright, I think that should've been enough already. Lord megano might pummel me For interfering too much. Count yourselves lucky, Puny humans. For if it hasn't been for my curiosity, Your heads might already be rolling throughout the Ground. Especially you, Monkey", Disdainfully Muttering words under his "breath", His eyes trained on the panting and now recovering jake before Taking off With a Forceful Flap of his metallic wings.
. . .
"Sir, It's been around half an hour already, I think it already safe to move out", A survey Corps member not far from Jake said to him, Hands now Returning the blades back to their sheaths As his vigilance started to dwindle down. The Painful waiting from earlier Made his nerves almost Burst up as his Raging heart continuously flushed down Blood throughout his whole body, So after seeing that nothing was showing themselves up, Not even a Hare, Finally brought some relief to his body.
"Huh? O-Oh, Yes. Pass the message around. Tell the men to man up as we're about to resume the mission", Stuttered Jake as he was awoken from his face by his soldier.
"But sir, What if the thing that killed that titan is still out there?", Questioned a Man in his late twenty, Fear and confusion Utterly obvious in his voice.
Hearing his subordinate, Jake Recalled the thing outthere among the towering trees and hesitated on whether To continue the mission or not. One side of him screamed to tell him to Flee. Abandon the mission to save his life. His subordinates. Risking their lives over some Unfrequented Outpost that Had a barely amount of importance Compared to their lives while also one side of him screams to continue the mission, Successfully Retake the outpost, Investigate the cause of the titan's Death and return back to the walls to report their findings And Investigation results. All for the sake of Their, Humanity's, Tactical Advantage over the Monstrous things that threatened their peace and safety.
Earlier, Right before the titan swallow him, Jake clearly remembered hearing incredibly loud, Which was something extremely Similar to that of a Cannon Fire. It was so loud that it's very impossible to Not hear it. unless There's something wrong with his Hearing Or it was his Mind who was failing him, Creating Something like that under the Influence of death and fear.
After weighing the pros and cons, Jake finally decided on what to do and sheathed his blades, Eyes Burning with determination as he didn't let his guard down.
"We will continue the mission, Whether At the Presence of that thing or not. What was the main reason Why We've all joined the Survey corps? It was to investigate the unknown, To Eliminate the threats. To give humanity hope. We we're asked and we complied, So we mustn't Betray their Trust, And go back to our promises. Men, On Me! Give your heart out, For humanity!", Yelled Jake before Swinging Downwards before launching Himself towards their Objective.
Everyone Around them Stood straight, Right fist's Slamming into their left chest before Giving all sort of warcry Of encouragements before Flying After their leader.
On that day, An Expedition group of 10 Survey corps Was tasked To retake an outpost. A supply Rendezvous. A temporary safe haven for the scouts. On that day, Humanity itself Made contact with something That will change the Fated destiny of the Eldians. Something that will change their lives, For the better or worst.
