…
"Eren… you…" I stumble back
I watch as blood dribbled out his mouth
After a few minutes the millions of colossal Titans that were at his command stop their march through-out the continent and their coordinate was passed onto me
…
After relieving every Eldian on the Continent from their Titans I sit back for about an hour when a blimp lands a couple meters behind me
"Eren!" Mikasa races past me
Mikasa…
Zeke was planning to re-write every Eldians DNA
Making it look like he killed everyone is child's play compared to that…
"N-no, no, no, don't do this!" She cries
"Dad…" Falco carefully pulls my arm over his shoulder
"C'mon" Colt does so as well
They help me over to the blimp
All the skin from the back of my arms to my back itself was blown off as if I were just skinned alive
Who even knows how many ribs were fractured or even broken
Mikasa was crying over Erens corpse as they carried me over to a room
It was full of the same doctors that saved my life after the Battle of Marley
"You have to be ready to speak to the world" Falco helps sit me on the bed
"Can't catch a break around here, huh" I chuckle as the two of them head back out
"Here" the doctor hands me a gallon of…
"Blood?" I ask as he puts on his face mask
"It was Falco's idea"
"Falco?"
How does he know?
"He's the sole reason you are here today. After the Battle of Marley your body was too weak to heal itself, much less survive an operation"
"Then how did you…"
"It was his idea to extract seven gallons of blood from survivors, and another five from the corpses left behind from the blast. I said it was a foolish idea, especially since any information about your blood type is nonexistent but…"
That stupid kid..
Guess he always figured I was some kind of devil…
…
They began the procedure the moment the blimp was stable in the sky
It took hours but they finished by the time we arrived
I was informed that they removed every serious fracture and all my broken ribs including one of my lungs which had deflated after one of my broken ribs punctured it
They basically relied on my ability to re-grow any bone or organ removed from my body instantaneously, so long that I had enough blood, in order to 'heal me'
The first thing we did when we arrived was announce our victory to the entire continent
We had a private Funeral for Eren at a cabin in the mountains of the Tybur Palace
I also had Sasha's real coffin transported here by plane since we seized this palace for ourselves
Mikasa was devastated
Everyone was
Nobody could fully grasp what he had done
Even so, at the end of the day he will always be family
…
After a month it was determined that the population had been reduced by 56% that was 5.3 billion people
Two days later I had to formally announce my first statement as Overlord
Falco told the doctors they don't have to worry about infections for some reason
Now that I thought about it, I've not once gotten an infection or ever gotten sick really
Even so, I pulled up topless covered in stitches, fresh wounds on display and a big fat cuban cigar gifted by my old buddy Cyrus
I exit the vehicle before helping Hsitoria out
I pull her in as they escort us through the back and into the Supreme Court where I will be holding the official mandate that will lead us into the future
…
"Our condolences are with every family affected by the rumbling. We will do everything within our power to rebuild the devastated Nations"
"But first, come this New Era I will be enforcing a New Order. Detestable behavior of any sort will NOT be tolerated" I begin;
"(1) There will be no ruler besides Myself. Any Nation or militia who wishes to disobey will be terminated
(2) You will Not steal, anyone who is caught taking someone's belongings Will Recieve the Death Penalty. If you trespass onto government or caught breaking and entering someone's home you Will Recieve the Death Penalty
(3) Religious practices or beliefs of a superior race, no matter who it may be. Will Recieve the Death Penalty
(4) Rape, beastiality, pedophelic and homosexual ACTS. Will Recieve the Death Penalty
(5) Anyone found guilty of murder. Will Recieve the Death Penalty
(6) You will not bear false witness. Investigations will be held, if the defendant or guardian is guilty of false testimony they Will Recieve the Death Penalty
(7) The dealing of illegal substances or weapons Will Recieve the Death Penalty
(8) Any and ALL forms of Escort organizations that is not abolished will be Terminated
(9) Any form of protest and or revolution will be Terminated immediately
Any under the age of 18 on the Eldian (360 day) Calendar will be disciplined thoroughly if they are caught doing the detestable. Parents and Teachers in schools have the authority to do WHATEVER necessary to discipline the youth. Those who abuse this authority including the Military Police Will Recieve the Death Penalty
As for the homeless. Your past mistakes will be erased and you will serve the Government. With the reduction of scum plaguing our society there'll be plenty of food, homes, and jobs to go around.
Do not be mistaken. Refuse to be a working member of society and you will be cleansed off the streets"
…
"The sixth Commandment will apply to any and All practices of abortion. Our main priority is to repopulate the continent" Armin explains the technicalities of everything as I puffed on my stogie and waited for him to finish
"Why?" Historia whispers
"What?" I ask after covering the mic
"The fourth commandment.. it… seems kind of extreme… don't you think?"
"Is it?"
She's probably talking about the one about the gays
"It isn't our place to judge, Kara"
I look around
"Last time I checked it is." I smile
"As of yet we have little to no knowledge of the beings outside our continent. Even so, there will be many forms of birth control that will be supplied by the government so it'll be extremely easy to get ahold of.." Armin continues
"Yeah, free of charge" I cut him off "We like that right? That means if you get pregnant you're an idiot plain and simple. Any questions?"
"No?" I look around ignoring the few hands that were raised
"Right. Mercy is for the weak. Any objections will be silenced… accordingly" I step off
"So, any objections?" Hange asks
No one dared utter a word
…
Together we helped everyone throughout the continent. With the help of 5-15 meter and even some colossal titans. We managed to get everyone a safe habitable place to stay
Within a year everything was said and done
Just under 900,000 criminals were executed in their cells
The crime rate dropped by 48% within the first year
Any petty criminal that was serving under ten years were enlisted into the military
They were sent all over the continent to help with construction, hunting, growing crops, and even expedition outside the continent
With Cyrus's help we concurred 20 miles of sea and 5 miles of land outside the borders of our continent
As far as we know everything around us is undocumented land so we've been gathering all the resources we could to rebuild our fallen nations
…
It was mid-day
I took my first weekend off after a whole year and I decided to spend it at the cabin
I was hoping I'd be here alone, but I found a carton of milk on the kitchen counter
I open the bedroom door
…
It was Mikasa. She was wearing a large baggy shirt and was cuddling a body pillow
After a few seconds she wakes up
"Oh…" she sits up "sorry I…" she blushes
"No, you don't have to. I'll just go."
"No, it's fine. Honestly." she pulls her jeans back on "I wasn't planning to stay here long"
She gets changed and soon she was out the door
I was holding the door open after letting her out just as a 36' Phantom Rolls-Royce stopped up front
After a couple of seconds Historia walks out in a yellow sundress, a giant floppy straw hat, and some sandals
She had the driver take Mikasa back since it was about a 2 mile walk back to the Palace
"Hey" Historia smiles
"Hey…"
She skips over to the living room
I get myself a cigar and the bottle of Whiskey from the freezer as she reaches into her bag and pulls out a cassette
After she inserts the movie I sit down on the couch. She grabs the controller and joins me, resting her head on my arm
"What movie?"
"The aristocats"
"The cat one?"
"Mhmm" she hums
…
Halfway into the movie I got up for another cigar
After burning through half of it, the movie had just about 25 minutes left when Historia suddenly rolls onto my lap
"What are-"
"You don't have to be alone, you know that.. right?" she whispers
…
"That's… that's the last thing you need, Kara."
…
I grab her waist
This was exactly why I was hoping to be alone
She sets her hands on my chest
"Isn't this enough?"
…
She outlines the scars on my chest
"When are you going to forgive yourself?"
…
"Sasha… your sister… they never blamed you for a thing. So it isn't your fault!"
…
What…
How does she…
…
How does she know? After all these years, I have not once mentioned my sister to anyone.
God, why won't she shut up?
"How long.. will you torture yourself?"
…
"Get off-"
"Stop trying to push us away" she wraps her arms around my neck "Nobody is afraid and nobody hates you, Kara"
"I don't know what you had to go through, but that doesn't mean you can't smile or you can't laugh with the rest of us."
…
"You deserve to be happy… more than anyone"
…
Happy?
"How do… how do I do that?"
…
She pulls her head back
Her lips trembled after hearing probably the stupidest question anyone could ever ask
But I felt like there was nothing I could do
Tears were rolling down her face, dribbling off her chin and onto my chest
"I… I love you, okay? L-Let's start there" she sniffs
I try pushing her back but it was as if I had very little to no strength in my arms
My body was saying yes
But my mind was saying no
She drops her sundress to her sides, exposing her beautiful body
"W-wait, Historia-" I sit up right
"No… stop it."
She leans in and locks her lips onto mine as she reaches into my pants
"I know you want this" she moans in my ear
"Stop it" I wrap my arms around her waist
I bury my head into her shoulder as her nails dug into my back
"S-Stop… I don't.."
I don't deserve this
…
Pov.
-Sasha-
-4 years later
I sit up
Where's momma and papa?
"Hmm…" I look around
"Unforgivable!" I lay back down
They always sneak away at night time so they can wrestle in their room without me
I sit back up
I look at my clock
It shows 10:34
Whatever the heck that means
I crawl out of bed
After putting on my little dress I sneak outside
I look both ways, making sure there weren't any big peoples before I sneak down the hallway
I almost manage to get to the living room on this floor undetected when I heard a strange sound coming from the same direction
"Boop" I peek around the corner
"Hmmm…" I raise an eyebrow
It was papa
He was talking to Mr. Jean again…
"I'm telling you, man. I've tried everything, she doesn't want this." He sighs
"She's… she's complicated. You… just give it some time…"
"I don't know… it's been three years. I want to get married. I really do, but… I want to have children of my own and she won't…" he sighs "I don't know, I don't want her to get too old a-and-"
"What?!" Dad growls
"Look, I'm just saying if she waits any longer it'll be impossible"
Papa sighs
"Well yeah, but… you know… she revolved her whole life around… Eren." Papa says
"Yeah… I know… maybe it's best if we-"
"Whoa… let's take a step back." Papa pats his shoulder "alright? I don't want you doing anything you'll regret"
…
"Yeah…" Uncle Jean sighs
I see my chance and I take it
I sneak down the hallway and into the living room
"Grarrr!" I jump in front of Papa
"Hey, kid" he pats my head
"It's Sasha-sha-sha!" I jump on Papis lap "Sasha-sha-sha, Sasha-sha-sha" I kick my feet's
He pats my head
"Did I scare you papa, did I?"
"Yeah you did" he smiles
"Yay, mission accwomplished!"
Papa grabs my feets and I curl up in his arms like a big baby
After a few more minutes they stood up
Papa sits me on his arm as he shakes Mr. Jeans hand
"Yeah-yeah" Jean sighs. "Bye Sasha" he rubs my head
"Bye Mr. Jean" I giggle
"We'll see you later, alright?" he pinches my cheek as auntie Mikasa came around the corner with momma
"Yessir," I giggle
After saying bye-bye to auntie Mikasa Mommy taked me upstairs for a bath with her and Papa
"Like this?!" I puff my cheeks, kick, and punch my arms as Papa held me by my belly
"Yeah, just like that" he passes me to momma
After swimming around our bath, we finish bathing and got ready for the party
Papa drove us to the cabin after
"Yay! Party time!" I hurry out and into the cabin
"Sasha!" Hange scoops me up "how are you, you little rascal? You grow a tail yet? Or maybe some fur?" She raises my arm to sniff my stinky armpits
"Hello" I giggle as she hugs me so tight I think I might pop
"Hi Sasha!" I hear Isabel
"Hi!" Hange sets me down and I join Isabel, Karina, Jean, and Grisha
Mr. Levi is Isabel's papa. She can be very cold sometimes. Reiner is Karina's papa. She's always arguing with Isabel.
Jean is uncle Connie's son. He says he named him after Jean so that when uncle Jean has a baby boy he can't name it after himself
Grisha is Armin and Mrs. Annie's son. He's the baby of our little gang
Also, big brother Colt had a son with Pieck too. He named him Falco. He's too small to join our gang though
"Peeeeas!" I beg Colt to let me hold the baby
"You're going to drop him again"
"That was an accident!" I stomp my feet's
"Have you said hi to Gabi yet?"
"What?! Hey you're right!"
I jump off the couch and I look around for Gabi and Big bro Falco
I open the bedroom door
Falco was helping Gabi zip up her dress
"Gabi!" I close the door behind myself and I jump onto the bed
"Hey Sasha" she pats my head as I hug her big belly
"Remember what you promised. If it's a girl you're going to name her Sasha, okay?" I hug her tightly
"Of Course baby" she squeezes my face
"Did dad come with you, Sasha?"
"Yup, he drove us here"
"Can you bring him here, please?"
"Mmh" I frown "fine, but you have to tell Colt he has to let me hold the baby"
"Alright, go along then" he sets me down and pats my back
I wave goodbye to Gabi and I go along to find papa
After a couple minute I finally found him
He was outside by the graves, sitting criss-cross applesauce on the grass in between Sasha and Erens grave with his arms crossed and a cigar
Mikasa was also with him
She was sitting down in front of Eren, resting her head on papa's shoulder.
I waddle over to the pair
Every time we visit the cabin they always come out here for a lot of minutes before deciding to go back inside
Mama said Sasha was her bestest friend.
She's also Falcos mama, but she died after the Battle of Marley, just before The Second Great Titan War
"Hello, Papa" I crawl into his lap
"Hey Sasha"
"Big bro says he wants to talk to you, papa" I lay back
"Falco?"
"Mhmm" I hum
"Oh.. okay" he throws his other arm around Mikasa and wakes her up
"C'mon" he whispers
She carefully gets up beside him as he curled me into his arms like a baby
He put me down before entering the room
Just then the front door opened
It's…
"Uncle Cyrus, Yay!"
…
Pov.
-Kara-
"I-I mean do you think I should? I'm not too sure"
"Well.. yeah. That's only if you know that you're ready"
He told me he was planning to propose to Gabi this evening
"Y-yeah.. well, I think I am."
"Don't think, Falco. You have to know it. Being a father as well as a husband not only means you have to provide, but to protect as well"
"Protect? W-well yeah, of course-"
"That means you must command authority over your wife and children, Falco. Don't be afraid to tell them what is and isn't allowed in your house. Especially Gabi, you hear?"
"Right" He nods
"You lose her respect and the children will follow. Your whole world will come crashing down."
…
"But also…" I sigh "don't be afraid to let your children know you care. Teach them how to overcome their obstacles rather than letting them figure it out themselves."
That is the one thing I failed to do
I kept them in line by having them strive to be the greatest soldier and son they could be
"Gabi as well. Don't think you'll lose any respect from her if you show a little affection every now and then"
"Y-Yeah" he smiles
…
"One more thing. If you're really going through with this then I want you out of the house by the end of the month"
"S-sure thing"
…
I smile
I open the door to join Historia
"Thanks… Dad. F-for… for everything"
…
"Yeah.." I nod before leaving him to it
I join Historia in the kitchen. She was laughing and smearing food on Mikasa's face.
Fooling around with Historia is the only time you'll ever catch a smile on Mikasa's face
Historia snatches the cigar from my mouth and sets it on a tray
"It's time to eat" she flip flops her way to the dining table
The following day Falco proposed
Gabi of course said yes and everyone decided that the good news called for another day of celebration
After the third day everyone went back home
"Yeah, he just fell out of the sky. Just like that" Cyrus explains how they ended up with a kid as young as Sasha on their crew
"Screw you! You're just a mere puppet, old man. One day I'm going to rule the world, you just wait!" The boy growls
"Rule the world, huh?" I chuckle
"Yeah! Kaido, King of the Beasts. Remember that name!" He Puffs his chest
"Alright King of the Fish," Cyrus pats his back, "let's get out of here."
"Hey!" Kaido growls
After saying goodbye we put Sasha to bed
Historia and I head into our room for a bath
"Gosh, I'm so tired." Historia sniffs after I threw on some joggers
She was wearing a little pink sleeping gown
"Then let's gets some sleep"
Instead of doing so she insisted that we slow dance in the moonlight shining through the open balcony
She shakes her head
"I like this" she sniffs
"You okay? Need a tissue?"
She shakes her head
"I'm so happy we met on that ship" she rubs her nose on my belly "Thanks for always protecting me, for always being by my side, Kara."
"What are you talking about?" I abandoned her and my nation for 18 years
"Thanks for freeing our nation. For freeing our people." She smiles up at me
"Historia… what…"
She sets a hand on my cheek
I lean in for a kiss, but she pulls her head back after a couple seconds
I open my eyes
…
She was…
Slumped… in my arms
Like she had just fallen asleep or…
I sit down against the bed and I hold Historia in my arms
"Hey.." I shake her head
She slowly opens her eyes
"C'mon you goofball. L-Let's get you in bed"
"No." She says before I could sit her up
"What do you mean, no? You're exhausted you need some-"
"No, Kara. Just hold me… please?"
…
"What's going on, Historia?"
"Kara.. I'm… I'm sick…"
…
"What?"
Her eyes began tearing up
"I'm sick, Kara. I have been for a while now"
"H-how long? How come I never noticed?"
"N-no. Don't do this to yourself." She grabs my finger and pulls my hand up to her chest, where I could feel her heartbeat "I tried everything. Believe me, I really did." She whimpers. "But nothing worked a-and that's fine, okay? It's… it's part of life. Everyone runs out of time eventually."
"You can't leave me yet. I-I mean Sasha, she's too young, you can't leave her. You can't leave us." I pull her head in "Just get up. You're fine. You're going to get through this so stop-"
Her heart quit beating for about five seconds before I felt another beat
Her eyes slowly open again
"You were always so busy. Even so, you always made time for us"
…
"I didn't want you to feel like… like I abandoned you again"
"Y-you didn't.. I already told you. So stop saying that" she sniffs
"B-but I-"
She coughs into her hand
…
Blood
She looks up at me
I hold her hand
"I love you, from the bottom of my heart." She sniffs "Always remember th-that.. that you don't have to be alone, okay?"
"N-not this again…" I rub our noses together as she began nodding off "I'll be joining you soon so I won't be for long" I pull my head back
"No… no you won't, Kara…"
…

Volume 8 Ch. 100
¡Guao Amigos!
This marks The End of The Attack on Titan Arc.
Feel free to let me know what you think or what your favorite scene is thus far.
This story is far from over. I will be posting the next chapter tomorrow since I've already lagged hard enough here on Web Novel
Also a heads up to watch out for the TW because the next story arc will be insanely graphic. Seriously there is NO holding back by my end, even as hard as it was to write some of the scenes. I've been working on it for a while now so I'm not about to half ass it
