Chapter Forty-One: The Trial (Part Two)

(Emi/Kami's POV)

Pain instantly shot through my body as I gasped. Electricity shot through my body as I felt like I was suffocating. I struggled against the restraints as I groaned, kami quickly taking control as her blood red eyes peered at Erwin.

"Y-You s-son of a b-bitch, what d-did you do?!" She growled as judge Darius smacked his gavel against the table. "ORDER IN MY COURT NOW!" He yelled as everyone slowly grew quiet. I looked at Levi, who was five seconds away from jumping out of his seat. I could faintly see tears falling down his cheeks. Erwin bent down so he was eye level with me as he spoke.

"From now on, you belong to me." He whispered evilly as Kami tried to lunge at him, the restraints keeping her from reaching Erwin. "Commander Erwin, you can guarantee the safety of those around the defendant?" Darius asked as Erwin nodded. "Yes sir, this device reacts to a chemical we injected into Emi. When the electricity courses through her body it not only weakens both Emi and Kami, it weakens their soul connection for a bit as well, making it easier for us to subdue her." Erwin explained as I panted, trying to catch my breath.

"E-Emi?" Kami whispered, not getting a response. Kami looked up at Erwin and yelled. "WHAT DID YOU DO TO EMI! SHE WONT ANSWER ME!" Kami screamed as Levi's eyes widened. Erwin turned to face Kami again as he smirked. "The electricity can be a little too much for her body to handle. She should recover..maybe." He shrugged as Kami slowly looked over at Levi, who looked like his whole world was ripped apart. Judge Darius smacked the gavel again as he spoke.

"I'll give you a trial period. You have three months to show me that the Hanoikami can be useful in our efforts against the Titans. And if I do not have adequate results then she will be put to death for her crimes." Judge Darius declared as he smacked the gavel again, causing Kami's eyes to widen.

Some of the members of the scout regime came over and unhooked the chains around Kami's ankles and wrists. Kami slowly stood up as she tried to catch her breath. "Emi, say something please." Kami whispered as Levi jumped over the bars of the seated area, shoving his way through the other soldiers and to Kami. He picked Kami up and looked at Erwin as everyone began filing out of the courthouse.

"I don't give a fuck what you say to me, I'm bringing Kami back with me." Levi declared as Erwin smirked. "Don't worry, that syrum I injected Emi with had a tracking chip in it. It's now activated since I shocked her. So, I will know where she is at all times." Erwin explained as Kami glared at him. "Asshole.." Kami mumbled as Levi turned left, carrying Kami out of the courthouse and to the barracks.
