Chapter 4 - chapter 3: New Worlds Darkness

It's been a about a week since dad's promise and he's just about ready to take me out and show me his work. We just finished our breakfast and I was getting exited for or little trip, but before we could leave mom stopped us to make sure I was wearing my jacket and put a red scarf around my neck to keep me warm. She looked over to my father and asked "Are you sure it's not a little to soon for him to be going out of town honey?" Grisha looked over at his wife and and tried to reassure her by saying "we've been over this, there is still a lot I need to teach him, plus the Ackerman couple have a daughter around eren's age so its a good place to start." She looked at me still worried because this will be my first time leaving shiganshuna before she reluctantly agreed and sent us off. We walked across town going towards the inner gates, after a bit of a process, because my father was the only doctor in town everyone greeted him and treated him with respect. We finally made it to the massive wall and went in threw the gates and started heading towards a forest I could see in the distance and after about half a days walk we found ourselves in at the foot of the massive and dense forest. After awhile, dad finally guided me to a small hidden trail that led to a little cabin. He kept reminding me to be on my best behavior as I could only respond by nodding and said "as long as they're nice we won't have any problems." Dad started knocking on the door but didn't get a response. He said "it's strange they're usually quick to answer and they expected us to come today." so he slowly opened the door only to see a horrific and bloody scene. Dad ran inside telling me to stay where I was but I didnt listen, walking in after him. He as checking for vitals on the mother as she was on the floor covered in blood, the side of her neck having a bloody gash across it. I looked over and saw what was problably the father, it was clear that they problably had him bleed out from a stomach wound as he was leaning against a table. Dad saw me walk in and his eyes widened as he quickly brought me back outside even in my dazed state. He raised his voice and said "EREN LOOK AT ME, I need you to return to the foot of the mountain and wait for me there. I need to go to get the guards and get some help, I didn't see their daughter anywhere so she might still be alright, NOW REPEAT WHAT I SAID BACK TO ME EREN." I did as he said as he looked me in the eyes, repeating what he said word for word. After making sure I heard him dad rushed off back the way we came and to the nearest guard post. Not long after he left I lost my dazed expression and replaced it with a determined one I already decided that waiting for dad would take too long and by the looks of things everthing is still fresh as the blood hasn't even had time to dry yet. I went back in the cabin looking everything over and noticed that the knife was still impaled in the mans gut, seeing this I walked over to him and took the knife out before wiping it clean and closing his eyes. I then went off to follow them, it wasn't hard as they left a trail behind from when they clumsily walked though all the spilled blood. I thought to myself that I had to save that girl, and I'll do it with the blade that killed her father.

Soon enough I came across an old dilapidated capin and thought "this must be the place." It had to have been so I snuck inside through the bad door and started hearing the muffled sound of some people arguing. As I got closer I was sick to my stomack with what I overheard and the rage in my eyes only grew as I crept ever closer to the room they where arguing in.....
