Auberon had woken up to the sound of roars echoing from the city. Titans? Have they actually breached the walls? If they have, shouldn't I be there fighting? Auberon had grimaced, rubbing the back of his head for a second, looking behind him at the quarters that held the recovering Amber. With only a moment of hesitation, he had started up his gear, heading towards the city with a grim look on his face. That's right. I have two reasons to fight now. As humanity's soldier and as Amber's knight. I will hold them back. I will no longer let fear control me.
Now, Auberon found himself in a dangerous position. His gas had run out a while back, leaving him to run over the rooftops. Sooner or later, Auberon knew he would run out of room to run. He'd only killed a few Titans so far, and he had no doubt in his mind that there was at least one after him. He was right. As he attempted to jump across a gap between buildings, a Titan rose up from below, biting off a good portion of his left leg. With a skid, he came to a stop on the next building, pressing his hands around what was left of his leg, blades discarded. He probably wouldn't need them much longer as it was. Heh, if I'd known it would end like this I probably would have made sure to see her one more time. Amber, I think this is it. My path, my story, has come to an end. Captain Levi, I'm sorry for not being a better soldier, a better member of the family. Hanji, you were wacky and unusual, but you were a lot like a big sister in a way. Amber, there's so much I would like to say to you, but I'll settle for just one. I love you. Auberon closed his eyes, preparing for what he believed was the end.
{Yeah, that was way too cliche.}
