The air in Shiganshina is heavy with dust and desperation, crackling with the weight of a single, fatal decision. The serum glints coldly in my clenched fist. On one side, Armin, his brilliant mind fading beneath terrible burns. On the other, Erwin, our leader, his time running out. There is no luxury of hesitation. As the scouts stand frozen, my hand moves—an instinct, a duty—toward Erwin. The tension snaps. Behind me, the struggle is raw and immediate: Hange and Floch grappling to restrain a screaming Mikasa and a wild-eyed Eren, holding them back from this heart-stopping pivot of fate.
