Hairy Gift

Bertholdt stares at the scene before him in shock and horror, Annie and Rainer had been defeated, leaving him as the only one remaining.

He hurries over in the slow walk his titan was capable of, occasionally flinching and blasting steam from his body when a soldier approaches his nape... But it didn't matter, he knew it was over, his titan wasn't designed for fighting, it wasn't fast, flexible, durable... It was only truly good at destroying structures, and even then Rainer's Armoured Titan was more effective most of the time.

Cuts begin rapidly forming across his body as the soldiers all stream in, he wasn't fast enough to catch any of them, and his stride to was too slow to outrun them... He turns to the side as a black speck races towards him at rapid speeds... Eren was coming for his second attempt.

"DIE!" Eren roars as he flies underneath the Colossal Titan's armpit, slinging around to try and attack its nape... Steam blasts out for the Nth time today, but Bertholdt was already exhausted from using this defence too much.

The steam pushes Eren and the other soldiers back, but they simply use their 3D manoeuvre gear to come straight back. Bertholdt blocks his nape with his massive hand, but many large cuts are carved into it, the soldiers eagerly wishing to end the creature that'd breached Wall Maria in the first place.

Unfortunately for them, none would be able to claim that honour as a sonic boom echoes across the city. The sound barrier broke as Saeko throws Samehada, using Suekue to quickly whip her arm like a miniature trebuchet.

*WHOOOM!*

*PUUCHIII!*

Samehada zooms straight through the Colossal Titan's mouth, dislodging teeth and exiting out of the back of its skull as it travels. Then, it falls, forcing everyone underneath it to retreat in order to not get flattened.

"W-what was that!?" Eren exclaims, utterly confused by what'd happened... He didn't know if a cannon or some other experimental weapon had been used, but whatever it was, it worked!

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

With Saeko, she turns from the falling Titan and focuses on the exhausted Mikasa. She had no weapons left and was running on fumes at this point... A defenceless target.

Mikasa, realising her intentions steps back and prepares to leave... Only to find that all of the gas of her 3D manoeuvre gear had been used up... "Wait, what are you doing?" she hurriedly questions, "I thought you were trying to help?"

Saeko nods, "I am. I promised you a gift, didn't I?" she states with a 'kind' smile. She rapidly dashes over and catches Mikasa by her ankle as she tries to jump away, slamming into the floor and dazing her.

The Werewolf then rests her foot on Mikasa's chest and slits her own wrist before holding up against the struggling soldier's mouth... "Drink, and I'll let you go."

"N-No!"

Saeko shakes her head, "Must you act like a baby?" she wonders as she holds Mikasa's nose, forcing her to drink her blood.

The metallic-tasting fluid flows down Mikasa's throat and immediately starts burning, entering her stomach and spreading to every fibre of her being from there. Saeko stops holding her down and allows Mikasa to go through her pain-induced seizure, her body shaking erratically with no sign of slowing.

Saeko nods and claps her hands of the dust covering them, she needed to go collect Samehada from wherever it'd fallen, plus, she needed to watch the newly born Werewolf to make sure she didn't kill anyone close to her or get killed in turn... Not that the latter option was in any way realistic. The Ackerman blood was impressive enough on its own, let alone when enhanced by Lycanthropy.

She darts away just as hair begins sprouting all over Mikasa's body, quickly turning her into a Werewolf wearing the rags of her soldier uniform...

"RRAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGHHHHHH!!!!"

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

Eren, Armin, Sasha, Jean, and Connie stand atop the quickly evaporating body of the Colossal Titan talking to each other enthusiastically. To them, this was the first of humanity's victories against the Titans, and many more were bound to follow.

"Did you see? That thing would have been shitting itself if it could! The way it looked at me, it knew I was coming for it!" Eren broadly grins as he jabs the titan's shoulder with his sword.

"Hmm... Do you think it's edible?... It looks edible...?" Sasha wonders aloud while examining the flesh of the skinless giant.

"Sasha, that's sick!" Connie exclaims with a small gag.

"What? They eat us? It's only right we return the favour!... Besides, they're not human, so it'd be like eating a wolf or something." she shrugs.

"Er, guys... I'm not so sure about it not being human..." Jean mutters with disbelief in his tone.

"What do you mean? You trying to humanize the enemy, horse-face?" Eren retorts, only to pause when he spot what Jean was looking at... "...Bertholdt...?"

Over at the nape of the giant, the steaming body of Bertholdt pulls himself from the flesh connecting them, his eyes wide and face scared shitless. He looks over and spots the group, an quickly realises just how fucked he is...

"U-uh... Hi, guys. S-strange to see you-" he glances at the decaying body, "Here...?"

. . .

"Bertholdt, what the fuck is this..." Connie asks, doing his best to not immediately throw out accusations. Eren and Jean looked ready to stab Bertholdt to death as it is, and Armin? His half-shocked, half-neutral expression gave nothing away.

"W-what does it look like...? I tried to-, to kill it, but got caught in its nape somehow... I'm just as confused as you are-"

"LIAR! REMEMBER WHAT YOU SAID? WHERE DID YOU COME FROM AGAIN? THE MOUNTAINS!? BULLSHIT!" Eren roars, looking as if he would spit fire if he could.

"I'm telling the truth! I have no idea what's going on!" Bertholdt shouts despite the strange burn marks on his face.
