Jean's horse galloped as fast as it could from the titan chasing after him. Thankfully, it got distracted by something else. However, suddenly a flying titan that was thrown by the armored titan blocked his way, making the ground shake beneath him.

Jean fell off of his horse and fell to the ground, his head hitting a rock, knocking his consciousness out.

“JEAN!” Armin yelled as he immediately approached Jean and dragged his unconscious body under a tree.

The moment you hear Jean's name being mentioned, you turn your head wherever it came from, only to see Armin having one arm around Jean and the other gripping on his blade as he pointed it to the titans that were approaching them.

You didn't think—you act. You pivot mid-air, slicing through the nape of a nearby Titan just before another swipe at you. You swerve—too slow. It grabs your arm, its claws sink into your flesh, pain sharp and blinding. Your ODM cable dangles, broken. You’re trapped, bleeding. You scream.

But through the haze of agony, you hear Armin shouting Jean’s name. Desperate. Frantic. You looked over to where Armin and Jean were spotted.

And something inside you snapped.

A scream catches in your throat—but it isn’t yours. It’s guttural. Raw. The pain is gone. The world blurs white-hot. Flames erupt. Thunder cracks.

The Titan holding you is vaporized in an instant. And now—you stand tall. Towering. Breathing steam. Your hands are no longer yours. Your eyes glow electric blue beneath hardened skin. The battlefield stops. All eyes on you.

You’ve unknowingly transformed into a titan.
