"Ma'am!"

Charging towards Miche's squad I pick up the speed, finally reaching up to him in time, "I'll take them down, I'm fit enough to stall them," I sternly say, but he grunts with a look of disapproval.

"Holy shit!" Connie exclaims, eyes widened in horror as the titans were catching up towards us at full speed.

Without a word or warning Miche roars and changes course, steering away from our line of escape, "Akira!!!!! I'm leaving you in charge!!!!!!" He orders, without a moment of hesitation while his voice grow faint with the further he leaves us.

My eyes widen, "M-Miche........." my breath shook for a moment, before finally realising we can't risk anymore soldiers being taken. A shadow casts over my eyes briefly "......understood."

"Please tell me he's not using himself as bait!" Lynne pleads, knowing their respect for Section Commander was great. 

"Let me go with him!" A solder suggests, willingly. "I can help!"

Shaking my head, "Stay where you are, we don't have enough soldiers to defend the recruits!" I reject his offer. "Trust me, I would if I could but we need enough man power to protect the recruits. I would even replace myself if he even gave me a damn chance!"

Gelgar hums with agreement.

"Seriously, give him some credit!" He scoffs, a little offended by their lack of trust and assurance on their Commanders capabilities. "That man's skills are third only to Captain Levi and Corporal Akira! He'll make it back alive! Count on it!"

To put it simply, I was angry that Miche had to go alone to fight them alone. We fought together since the beginning, he became like an older brother to me. However my trust was beyond, so all I could do was pray for him to return safely.

Stay safe, Miche.........
