Protection

Ghost's POV

"Don't tell the others that I'm injured." I said, "Erwin, you need to get reinforcements to all three sides, figure out which ones are the weakest."

I groaned in pain as I sat down on the ground. Aid began to wrap around a cast on my ribs.

"Let's get you into the Queen's chamber." said Levi

"No I need to stay out here." I fought back

"You're injured right now, you'll be no use if you can't fight. You'll lead us from the inside." replied Levi, "Get him to the Queen's chamber."

I didn't want to fight back so I just let Marlowe and Marco help me up and we made our way to the castle. We went through a bunch of secured doors until we were led to an elevator and took it down. We entered the bunker with a thick steel wall and entered it.

"Lieutenant Colonel Ghost are you okay?" asked Queen Historia

"I'm fine, give me a satellite map of the battlefield." I said

There were multiple big screens and they pulled out a map with enemy positions and our positions.

"We have seven titans right now one outside supporting the navy." I said to myself, "I need all titans to take a district-"

I saw something at the corner of my eye and when I turned around some of the guards began to draw their guns so I quickly pulled out my knife and threw it at a guy's head killing him. I looked around and Marco, Marlowe and Hitch were fighting off 8 guards.

"Marlowe, Hitch, Marco fall back protect your queen!" I yelled

Ignoring the pain in my side I kicked one guy, pulled him back in and shot his stomach twice. One guy tried to roundhouse kick me to the face but I blocked it and kicked his other leg. He fell down but I was still holding onto his leg and I stomped on his face so hard his neck snapped. But then one guy punched my face so I spun around and elbowed his jaw. But I think they saw me clutching my injury so one guy tried punching but I ducked under, back kicked one guy while shooting the guy who tried to punch me. One guy charged into me but I stopped and elbowed his back but then he squeezed my ribs and I grit my teeth in pain.

'Fuck. This. Shit.'

I shot his back and uppercut him with my gun while shooting his chin. I then shot one guy's leg and kneed his face. One guy swung his arm but I blocked it and shot his heart twice and pushed his body towards another guy and shot my gun through the guy's head and it went through and hit the other guy who was behind him in the head.

'6 down, 2 more to go.'

I was about to attack them when Marlowe and Marco popped them off with their guns.

"We can't trust anyone now." I said to them

"What are we going to do now sir? We don't know who's traitors and who's not." asked Marco

"I don't know." I replied

"Sir Queen Historia's hit!" yelled Hitch

I approached her and Historia was clutching her shoulder, blood gushing out. But then I began to feel dizzy and I collapsed.

"We need immediate medical attention! Queen Historia and Lieutenant Colonel Ghost need help now!" yelled Marco into his earpiece

But then I heard blood crying screams from the other side of the door.

"They bypassed through our security?!" asked Marlowe

"Marco, get me a pain killer." I said

He passed me a pain killer and I injected it into my arm.

"Protect your queen." I said

"Colonel..." whispered Hitch

"Give me some covering fire." I said as I pulled out my knife from the guy's head.

I reloaded my pistol and stood in front of the others as they started to pull out their rifles and cock them.

"I'll hold them for as long as I can." I said

Jean's POV

"We have to get to the queen!" yelled Hange

"Titans in front of us!" yelled Connie

"How the hell did they get behind us?!" asked Mikasa

I swung into a roof to watch the battle from up here. It was chaos, a bunch of titans were walking around either eating or getting obliterated.

"Jean move it!" yelled Captain Levi

"Eren, Annie, Zeke, Pieck! I need you five to go help the others in the districts of Wall Sina. Reiner go back to the castle and save the queen." said Armin

Reiner nodded in agreement and ran off.

"This is Commander Recon. Don't worry about the queen we'll handle this." said Recon through the earpiece

"Let's trust them! Reinforce the districts or else we lose everything!" yelled Captain Levi, "Don't die on me!"

"Yes sir!" we all replied

Eren, Annie, Pieck and Zeke parted ways to different districts. I followed Eren towards Stohess district.

"Eren you're crystallizing skills improved a lot." said Hange

He nodded his head as he was running.

"Captain Levi! Get on!" yelled a Sentinel from below

I looked down to see a bunch of military ATV cars and tanks behind them. I hopped on one with Mikasa and drove towards Stohess.

"Anything on the naval battle?" I asked

"Nothing all we know is that Marksman took out a couple of commanding officers but it doesn't seem like it's enough so they're hunting them down." replied the Sentinel soldier

"How many casualties?" I asked

"We don't know the numbers." he replied

"Incoming enemy tanks!" yelled the driver

There were a bunch of tanks in front of us.

"Drive past them, we need to reinforce the soldiers in Stohess District. All tank units engage!" yelled the driver

The driver swerved and drove faster, past the enemy tanks as they engaged our tanks. Eren smashed on some tanks to bits. Connie shoots a rocket launcher at a tank taking it out.

"There's C4s in the back!" yelled the driver

The passenger was busy shooting the mounted machine guns. I grabbed a C4 and threw it on a tank and blew it up. Mikasa jumped off the ATV and blew up a tank with her thunder spears.

"Keep driving, we don't have time to destroy all these tanks!" yelled the passenger

"If we let them pass the others back there would be in danger!" yelled the driver

"Don't worry we have enough men and firepower back there so focus on driving." I said

The driver nodded and drove faster with the other ATV's close by. Our tank unit was able to punch through and they caught up with us.

"This is Seagull 94, assisting you with air support." came a voice through my earpiece

I heard choppers above me and saw Sentinel Opheis attack choppers above us. They're choppers were advanced so they look different from ours.

"Make sure you kill all of them." growled Levi through the earpiece

Ghost's POV

I threw a guy behind me but a mutant kicked me in the rib and then back kicked me. I fall to the floor and kneel on one knee while clutching my ribs.

At least 20 mutants came in through the door and there were 7 left. Marlowe, Hitch, Marco and Historia were under arrest.

'Why aren't they killing her?'

"Commander we have a target." said the mutant in the front who seemed to be the leader

"You didn't get shit." I whispered

I lunged towards him and kicked his face while kicking another guys face with the other leg. I landed and did a spinning hook kick at another mutant. I shot the mutants who were holding down Marco and the others giving them the opportunity to get back up.

One mutant charged me but I ducked to the side, quickly stabbed his neck and as he passed me I sliced his nape off.

'Why aren't they protecting their napes?'

One mutant tried to kick me but I grabbed and moved back forcing him to do a split. Then I drop kicked his leg, breaking it. Marco and Marlowe grabbed their rifles and started blasting at the rest of the mutants in the room but they kept regenerating.

I used that opportunity to grab a sword off the ground and I beheaded one of the mutants. I then dodged a swing and swung my sword twice in a X form and then stabbed his neck killing him.

'One mutant left.'

The commander got up and looked at me furiously.

"Fuck you..." he growled

He charged at me and jumped to stab him but I grabbed his wrist mid air and smashed him onto the ground. I grabbed his ankle and swung him upwards and smashed him onto the ground again. I then pulled him in and then stabbed his nape as he was pulled towards me.

I was breathing hard, my ribs were on fire but then I heard the elevator ring, signaling that the elevator was coming down.

"Oh no." whispered Marco

I tried getting up but I immediately fell back down in pain.

'No I can't lose any more good people.'

The elevator door opened and I was just about to shoot my pistol but I realized I was empty.

"Woah friendly!" yelled a voice I knew

I looked up to see Recon there with Aid.

"What took you so long?" I asked

But before they responded I collapsed onto the ground unconscious.

Jean's POV

"Approaching Stohess District!" yelled the driver

"Titans 12 o'clock, light em up!" yelled the passenger

The attack choppers and tanks began to fire at the Titans while the Sentinels were shooting them with their guns.

"All Scouts engage!" yelled Levi

I jumped off the ATV and shot my hook on a titan and began to swing toward it. I swung behind it and shot it's nape with my modified UZI with explosive rounds in them. The titan died and Mikasa swung next to me and killed and sliced off a titan's nape.

I landed on the roof and was just about to engage when Eren punched a titan so hard the titan's body flew and was about to crash into me. I quickly hooked myself and swung away just in time before getting crushed.

'Damn Jaeger nearly got me killed.'

"Sir multiple enemy choppers coming!" yelled a Sentinel

"I need those tomahawk missiles now!" yelled another Sentinel

"First wave inbound." replied another voice in my earpiece

"Charlie Charlie target is marked." said another Sentinel who was holding big binoculars

"Target acquired." replied the voice in my earpiece

I looked up and saw multiple missiles flying right above us and destroying enemy choppers.

Captain Levi was so fast that he took out the remaining Titans in the district which weren't that much.

"Secure this district!" yelled Hange, "Who's the commode of the unit listed here?"

"Ma'am." said an Eldian Garrison who's wearing regular combat gear

"Mr Hannes?!" gasped Mikasa

"Mikasa is that you? It's been so long." gasped Hannes, "Is that Eren?"

Mikasa nodded and Eren waved.

"What's the situation" asked Hannes

"Most Titans ignored us for some reason and they tried going towards Mitras." said Hannes

"Shit's bad, Queen Historia's chamber was infiltrated and she's wounded." said Hange

Then I heard a voice through my earpiece.

"Colonel Ghost is down, we need immediate medic!" yelled a voice

I nearly fainted.

"The Colonel is down?" whispered Mikasa

"This is Section Commander Hange, is the Queen okay?" asked Hange

"Yes ma'am, she's fine but Colonel passed out when we entered her bunker with at least 30 bodies in the entire room." said the voice, "Colonel's condition is stable but he's unconscious. We have to continue with the mission.

Marksman's POV

"Target down." I said

"You were able to hit each and every one of them in a moving helicopter. Amazing." said Bomber

"Captain Marksman can you read me?!" yelled a voice

"Captain Marksman here, identify." I replied

"This is Sergeant Ken but we have bad news sir." replied Ken

"What is it?" I asked

"Colonel Ghost is down." he replied

I dropped my sniper, Bomber stopped reloading his gun and the others looked at me with shock.

"What do you mean he's down?" I asked

"He's alive but he's taken too much damage. He protected the queen and took down 30 TMOs." replied Ken

I sighed in relief with the others knowing that he was still alive.

"Okay understood." I replied

"Sir looks like the fleet is retreating." said Javelin

I looked down to see ships turn around while getting shot at by our fleet.

"Let's get Bertholdt and fall back." I said

We retrieved Bertholdt and we flew back to Mitras.

"Captain what about the other districts?" asked Juggernaut

"They were able to hold them off." I replied

We flew over Karanase district, a bunch of smoke and flames were around the district.

"Bertholdt, water." said Bomber

Bertholdt nods and gulps down the whole bottle of water.

"You did good." I said

He nodded in response and gave me a thumbs up.

"Let's go fix our home." I said
