Disclaimer: I don't own Attack on Titan

THIS FANFIC HAS MANGA SPOILERS. PROCEED WITH CAUTIONS, YOU ANIME WATCHERS!

So, some details about how this was made!

I've always admired Power to Strive and its sequel by ii-Pheonix-ii for the utter in-of-character, sheer dedication and correct update time. So one day after rereading said fic for the nth time, I started wondering what would happen if they started reacting to Attack on Titan Junior High, and since the author has made it clear that they are not going to do parodies, so I thought 'why the hell not?'

So this madness was born. On that note, I think this might be the first AoT: Junior High fic in the fandom lol.


"Forward!" The thirteenth Commander of the Survey Corp, Erwin Smith, commanded. "We will now begin the 57th expedition beyond the walls! Onward!"

Before everyone has a chance to buckle up for the ride, a shot of lightning struck. People's startled cries resounded throughout the clearing, which was filled with smoke and dust from the ground, as the Garrison soldiers hastily closed the gate out of fear since the Colossal Titan also broke down the gate of Trost District in this manner.

"What is happening?!" Gelgar exclaimed.

"Ugh, Charlotte! Calm down—Woah!" Ness struggled to calm his horse down.

"Get a hold, everyone!" Mike hopped down from his horse and immediately turned to face Erwin, "What should we do Erwin—"

Correction: where Erwin was, because the sniffing man came face-to-face with a white horse.

Mike exclaimed, "Did that bolt of lightning turned you into a horse?!"

"Squad Leader Mike!" Moblit dropped down from his horse as he arrived and saluted. "Sir, Squad Leader Hange and the Special Operation Squad including the Titan Shifter has disappeared!"

Another frantic soldier piped up, "Most of the new recruits also disappeared, sir!"

"How can this happen?!" Mike demanded. "People don't just disappear like that! It's impossible!"

He wisely ignored the small mutter of 'well, there's also the Colossal Titan' from Nanaba.

"Um...Squad Leader Mike?" Nifa hesitantly spoke up. "There is a piece of paper stuck to your back."

Nanaba quickly snatched the folded paper sat snugly between Mike's belt and read it aloud, "It said, 'Hey there, I know you are confused and all but basically it's like this; I've kidnapped your Commander, the Titan Shifter and his loyal underlings, and a short guy with a bow (or was it an ascot?) to do this and that to them. Cancel the expedition or something and have fun dealing with the government! Yours truly, Kuro.'"

The following silence was deafening. It was only broken by Gelgar's confused murmur, "What kinda name is Kuro anyway?"

Then, all hell broke loose.


"UGH!"

Oluo bit his daily bite of tongue as Eren charged forward.

"GAH! I-I'm sorry, Oluo!"

Oluo angrily turned around, "What was that for, you stupid brat?!"

"Well, er, I heard the Commander's command to move forward so I charge—"

"The horse should be charging, not you, dumbass—UGK!"

Ignoring Oluo biting his tongue yet again, Eld looked around to see a spacious living room with a small kitchen and bathroom in the corner. "Where are we?"

"Eren!"

Mikasa unintentionally pushes Oluo out of the way, causing him to fell to the floor ungracefully with a thud as she started inspecting her adoptive brother from head to toe. "Eren, are you alright?!"

"Yes I am! Stop mothering me!" He snapped. "Where are we? Where are the rest of the Survey Corp?"

"That's a question I would like the answer to, brat," Levi growled. "What the fuck is going on here?!"

"You guys are from the 104th trainee class, am I right?" Petra asked the remaining members of the group and they hesitantly nodded.

Erwin coughed, "May I have your attention please?" Out of everyone in the room, he appears to be the calmest.

Almost everyone immediately snapped into a perfect salute, except for Levi, because seriously, have you ever seen him saluting anyone on common occasions?

"I know that we are not where we are supposed to be, and the strange setting is rather intimidating to be around, but please get a grip of yourselves. Now, report."

The new recruits looked confused at his order before Levi stepped up, "The Special Operation Squad are present, including Eren Yeager."

"I'm Hange Zoe, pleased to make your acquaintance!" Hange winked at the new recruits.

Levi muttered, "We are not doing an introduction, Four-eyed Freak."

The Commander stared at the new recruits before Jean got the clue and stepped up, salute still in place, "We are trainee—er, I mean new Survey Corp soldiers from the 104th Training Corp, sir. I am Jean Kirstein."

"Mikasa Ackerman."

"I am Armin Arlert, sir."

"My name is Christa Lenz, sir!"

"Ymir." No one noticed the subtle twitches from Hange, Erwin, and Levi.

"Connie Springer, sir!"

"My name is Sasha Blouse, sir!"

"I see. I am Erwin Smith—"

Levi scoffed, "As if they didn't know already."

"—the 13th Commander of the Survey Corp." Erwin continued smoothly; it was likely that he was too used to the shorter man's behavior by now. "I fear that for some unknown reason, we have been transported here by unknown means. Let's start with inspecting this room—"

He was interrupted again, but this time by the black screen that suddenly lit up with texts. 'Hello. Just in case this didn't go as expected, do we have an Erwin, Levi and his squad, Hange, and seven newbies not including Eren Yeager?'

"What the hell?" Levi deadpanned.

The noise began to pick up again as they talk about the origin of the strange object before Erwin's sharp voice cut them out. "Quiet! Now, who are you? And yes, all of the listed people are present."

'Good. It'd be annoying if I have to go overtime for this mess. I go by a lot of names, but for now, you may call me Kuro.'

"What kind of shit name is Kuro anyway?" Levi snarked.

'The kind that isn't short.'

They tried. They really, really tried, but the tomato face and fluffed cheek from trying too hard to stop their laughter gave them away. Hange and Mikasa were the only one who dared to laugh out loud since the former was used to Levi's wrath and the latter just wanted to irritate Levi.

Erwin chuckled lightly before feeling his subordinate's glare fixed on him and cover it with a cough. "Ah, will you tell us why we are here? And what have you done to us?"

'Well, I transported you guys here for a reason—do tell Sniffy that I'm sorry for dumping the whole mess of you guys being absent on him when you get back. Anyway, I'm here to give you puny humans a chance to fight back against the Titans, because clearly you can't handle it even though you have two Ackermans, the Attack, the Jaws and the freaking Founder on your side.'

Ymir tensed as she sucked in a breath.

"What's wrong?" Christa asked, but she got no reply.

"Two Ackermans?" Mikasa whispered, feeling slightly winded. She was obviously one, so who was the other?

'The Attack? The Jaws? The Founder?' Armin's mind was whirling with questions. 'This 'Kuro' implies that both Ackermans are on our side, and seeing as Mikasa is a member of the Survey Corp...does that mean the other Ackerman is also a member? And why Ackermans specifically?'

"A chance to fight back against the Titans?" Erwin interrupted the hushed whispers in the background, gaze hopeful. Levi narrowed his eyes; he'd never seen Erwin like this before. The man was usually the epitome of calm and collected.

'First of, let me give you some background info. Basically, I am the governor of a world—not yours, my friend is—and I've been bored lately, so I dropped by to your world to visit my friend. But watching you struggling for like a century become boring as shit. So I decided that I might as well speed things up.'

"Is this thing insane? There is no such thing as 'another world'!" Gunther whispered, and for once, Hange was subdued.

'However, there is a law in the universe stating that we can't show the future to mortals like you guys, just like how us governors can't abuse our power to go to the past or future, so I was planning on showing your future to you guys, but that plan was scrapped because of this stupid rule.'

"You were going to show us our future?!" Petra exclaimed in awe. Just who is this 'Kuro'?

'I was, but now I have to make a compromise. I'm gonna show you guys the world that I govern, since there are no rules that I'm aware of against that.'

"How will that help us defeat the Titans?" Eren spoke up. "Another world would be different from this one, right?"

'Look. If we are going into specifics, we will have to sit here for hours. Just know that the two worlds are similar, but my world is more modern than yours, and the most important of all? Humans and Titans... coexist'

This time, no one bothers to hide their outrageous gasps.

"Are you crazy?! There is no way humanity and those...things can live peacefully together!" Eren snarled.

"Humans and Titans coexist?" Connie whispered to Sasha. "I'm not that smart but even I know that's impossible!"

'Did Eldia won against Marley in the Great Titan War?' Ymir thought. 'The only way I can think of for us to exist with the Titans is that the Eldian Empire wiping out all the opposing races and rule the world before Helos made a pact with the Tyburs.'

'You'll know what I'm talking about when you start watching. But here's the most important thing to know:' The text disappeared and was replaced with bold letters, 'Most of the things that you will see either HAS HAPPENED, IS HAPPENING, or WILL HAPPEN in the future.'

"None of this is making any sense," Jean whispered, slightly winded.

'So basically you will see a mix of events from your world happening in my world, but you wouldn't know which is the actual 'future information' and which is exclusive to my world only.'

Erwin looked grim, which was scaring Squad Levi a little.

'I'm giving you a chance to be able to pick it out and wield the future knowledge to win this war. I'm not going to feed you the answers directly; you have to work for it yourself. Hell, I'm probably too generous to give you humans a chance like this. So, any questions before you start watching?'

"What are you?!" Oluo immediately spoke up, miraculously without biting his tongue. "No humans can do something of this scale. You...Are you a god?"

The screen was silent, and then texts started to appear again. 'I'm not a god, I'm a governor, and my name is Kuro. That's all you need to know for now.'

"When can we get out of here? For all we know, we could be stuck watching this until we die." Levi asked.

'It'll probably take you four hours to watch the whole thing, and if I'm feeling generous, I'll allow you guys to watch some extra. Who knows? I'm planning to let you guys some times to get comfortable, so five hours should be enough.'

The TV waited but no one else asked another question, so it continued, 'The videos are pre-recorded, so don't even bother asking me if I happen to pop up during one. There is food in the fridge—open the handle of the grey box in the corner—and the bathroom is in that stall over there. There should be enough to feed an army for a week, so don't worry about running out.'

"Thank you for allowing us this chance, Kuro." Erwin nodded. "This is indeed a great leap towards our goal."

'No need for that. Just pay me back by showing me some really entertaining time later on. Now, let's watch Episode 1 of Attack on Titan: Junior High!'

After everyone settled down on the sofa, with Connie, Sasha, and Eld checking out the food in the fridge, Jean pinched his cheek, "Ow! So it's real….we really are going to watch the future."

Eren grumbled, but he wasn't even annoyed at having to sit next to Jean, "I agree with you there, Horse-face. I can't believe it...This is a chance for us to see the possible future so we can change it for the better."

"I know! The possibilities are endless, but I wish we could have seen the actual future instead of possible futures." Armin nodded along.

"Honestly?" Mikasa shrugged, "We are lucky to even take a glimpse the future, much less the possible futures. So I'm not complaining."

"What's with the title though...Attack on Titan: Junior High? What is a 'Junior High' anyway?"

Erwin pressed play on a foreign black object. He shrugged, "There were instructions on the table."

The screen lit up. A pair of birds flew on the golden sky. Eren's single eye widened as he stared at something. The birds flew across the Wall where a massive red hand clutched at it.

Everyone flinched.

'No way...could it be that day?' Eren thought, horrified. 'Mom...did mom die?'

"Oi, I thought this was a world where Titans and humans coexist?!" Oluo whispered.

Hange leaped out of her seat in excitement before Levi, who unfortunately was next to her, pulled on her ponytail, "Sit down, you Abnormal."

"That's the Colossal Titan, isn't' it?! He's huge! Ohhhh wait until I get my hands on you darling…." Hange trailed off as she smiled madly.

Sasha exclaimed, "Holy….he's huge!"

Mikasa, Eren, and Armin stood staring at the Wall with a horrified expression.

"I don't recognize those style of clothes." Petra noticed. "It's definitely another world."

'The scarf.' Mikasa fiddled with her own scarf. 'So that happened, too.'

"Humanity was reminded on that day—wait, who are you?!" The alarmed voice was cut off as sounds of a fight and cries were heard.

Everyone was startled. Mikasa looked at her blonde friend. "Armin...was that you?"

"That's definitely my voice but…" Armin trailed off.

A girl's voice sighed, "Wow...who knew people took that long to hold their breath...Okay, sorry for the interruption, people! I'm Kuro and I'll be narrating this instead of our KO-ed narrator! So where were we…"

"That was Kuro?" Gunther blinked. "She sounded...younger than I thought."

"Ah, here we are." Solemnly, Kuro started narrating. "Humanity was suddenly reminded that day...of the terror at being at their mercy..."

The Colossal Titan's head raised over the wall, its shadow towering over the three children.

"Of the humiliation of being trapped inside a cage…"

The screen went black.

"The Wall still exist," Erwin noted, as Hange scribbled that down to a notebook she pulled out from somewhere.

The scenery changed to Eren's house.

"Is that….a house?" Levi asked warily. "Kinda looks like the place where those fancy nobles would live but smaller."

"And what are those poles with wires hanging from them?"

Sasha mumbled, "Birds are perching on it, so they should be pretty high up...I think?"

Mikasa whispered, "Eren.."

"Eren."

"Eren! Wake up."

Jean looked annoyed, 'That thick-headed suicidal bastard...having a girl towering over him to wake him up like that.'

"Mikasa?"

"You need to get up."

"It...It feels like I had this really long dream or something…" Eren groggily sat up.

"What was it about?"

"I can't remember…"

"Eren...are you drooling?" The face of Eren drooling was shown.

Most of the 104th trainee chuckled. "You have one hell of a bedhead, dude."

"Also, we're late."

"Late for what?" Armin wondered as Eren screamed.

"I'm off," Mikasa said as she ran pass Grisha with Eren following behind.

Carla smiled, "Okay, have a good day."

"Mom." Eren choked. He never thought that he could hear her voice again.

"Hurry up, Eren." Mikasa chided.

Placing the glass of water he'd downed on the table, Eren ran out of the kitchen with Grisha still reading the newspaper. "See you later, Mom!"

Carla turned around and smiled, "Have a good first day of school!"

"So Eren and Mikasa are going to school. I suppose it would be one of those civilian school that teaches you how to get a job in the interior." Eld noted.

Erwin hummed, "It is a different world, so we wouldn't know. Judging by the Yeagers' reactions, it is normal behavior for their children to go to school every day like that."

The screen flashed and they saw Eren running while trying to put on a blazer at the same time. "Crap! I don't wanna be late on my very first day of Junior High!"

"Is Junior High the name of the school? How odd." Petra noted.

"Hey, Mikasa! Don't you dare tell anyone I was drooling while I was asleep!"

"I won't tell anyone...that you put your pants on backward, either."

Jean laughed especially loud to Eren's face. "Ugh, shut it, Horse-face!"

"I can laugh whenever I want, you suicidal bastard!"

"Shut it, children!" Levi leveled a frigid glare to the two teens as they hastily quiet down, but they saw that their superior was looking at Mikasa, who was trying to make him cower with her own dark aura.

Erwin coughed, "If we can continue, please."

"Argh! Stop it!" Eren blocked his ear and ran ahead. "Eren! Watch where you are going!" Mikasa warned just as Christa was crossing. They bumped into each other as Christa tried to cover her skirt after she fell down.

Connie mumbled, "Lucky guy…"

"I'm sorry. I was in a hurry." Eren held out a hand as Christa took it.

"That's okay. I was in a hurry, too, so…Ah….my breakfast!" She looked at the piece of toast on the floor. A new voice popped up.

"Hey, hey, hey! What the hell kinda plot are you tryin' to pull by bumping into my precious Christa while she had toast in her mouth?!" Ymir came up and forcefully separated the two apart.

Christa lit up. "Ymir! There you are!"

"I agree with my TV-self there, Eren," Ymir growled at the Titan Shifter.

"Plot…" Mikasa murmured.

Ymir pats an oblivious Christa on the head as she hugged her. "Are you okay, Christa? Marry me once the entrance ceremony is over."

"Does this happen often?" Gunther quietly whispered to Connie, who was the closest to him.

"Ah—It does, sir!" Connie squeaked.

Eren picked up Christa's hand and placed something into her palm. "Sorry. Buy something else to eat with this—"

"I told ya to keep your damn hands off her!"

"—Well then, I'm in a hurry, so…"

Eren ran off with Mikasa in tow as Ymir yelled, "Don't ever show your face again!"

Christa looked down at her palm and blinked, "What am I supposed to buy with this?"

"Seriously? Ten yen? I could do so much better than that—"

Petra elbowed him on the side. "Doesn't matter!"

"We'd better hurry up!"

Eren bumped into Sasha, who was carrying a watermelon.

"I sure hope that you aren't this unaware of your surrounding, Eren. Otherwise, we will really have a problem." Levi drawled.

"Ah! My watermelon!"

Almost at the same time as TV Sasha screamed, Sasha also stood up and yelled the exact same phrase. "Eren! How could you! That's a watermelon!"

"I wasn't the one who broke it!" Eren said defensively.

Jean wondered, "What is a watermelon anyway? It looks red and...why are there black spots in it?!"

"Watermelon is a type of fruit that the people in Wall Sina usually have after dinner," Hange said. "It's sweet and the black seeds are used to plant more of them—or so I've heard."

"Eating watermelon in the morning?" Mikasa mumbled.

"Sorry! I'm in a hurry, so…!" He placed a small card in Sasha's palm and ran off with Mikasa.

Sasha yelled after them. "Pay for my watermelon!"

Eren growled, "Dammit! I'm not gonna run into anyone—"

Right as he knocked Jean into the ground. Eren stared at the person and said, "We'd better hurry up." And jumped on Jean's face to move ahead.

"Hey!" Jean's loud cry was ignored in favor of the laughter from nearly everyone in the room.

Mikasa stepped on his face and Jean got a nosebleed.

Jean was mortified as Mikasa glowered at him.

"Dammit...Just how far away is this school?!"

Mikasa looked at Eren, 'I want to devise a plot to bump into Eren, too.'

"The hell, Mikasa?!"

Said girl was trying to hide her face into her red scarf.

She imagined lending a hand to Eren as imaginary wind blew her hair back. "Are you okay, Eren?"

Eren nodded in confirmation and took her hand.

No one from the 104th trainee class dared to laugh, fearing their number one soldier's wrath while Eren stared in bemusement. Mikasa refused to look at him.

"Brats," Levi grumbled.

Mikasa's eyes shone wildly as she sped off in a different route at high speed. Rounding the corner was Connie, "Coo, coo, coo. The pigeon says coo."

"Oh hey, there's me!"

Jean grumbled, "What kinda of dumb song is that?"

Eren and Connie were about to bump into each other before Mikasa slammed into him and knocked Eren into the air. "AHHHHHHH!"

Laughter erupted from Connie, Sasha, Jean, and Oluo, who was just trying to irritate the new recruit.

Eren sent a deadpanned look at Mikasa who was still blushing.

"Eren, wait!" Mikasa chased after Eren as Connie tilted his head questioningly.

Eren landed with a crash. Mikasa, Ymir, Christa, Sasha, Jean, and Connie ran up to him, all have their own motives.

Eren looked up, "So, this is…."

A shot of Wall Maria appeared.

"Hold it!" Gunther exclaimed. "Wasn't Wall Maria destroyed by the Colossal Titan at the beginning?!"

"The gate's also not locked. How do we keep the Titan out?" Petra wondered.

"Well, we coexist in this world, right? But then again the Titans would eat the students though…" Eld said.

Erwin interrupted, "I'm sure we'll get our answers soon."

"...Attack Junior High School!"

"It's huge!"

The new students stared in awe as the school bell rang. "Oh, shoot! We're late!"

Mikasa followed along and the others took it as a cue to snap out of it and follow the brunette if they don't want to be late.

"My watermelon!"

"You are still going on about that?!" Eren deadpanned.

"It must be a good watermelon."

"That way!"

Eren leads everyone into the Titan Building.

"Yeager, are you blind or something?" Levi asked incredulously. "How could you miss that huge print on the floor?"

Before Eren could answer, Mikasa snapped, "It is a huge print on the floor, sir. Something like that isn't easy to read."

Levi scoffed, but Petra was worried. "So this place has a separate building for Titans, but Eren and everyone wandered into it…."

The weight of the woman's word set into the new recruits and all at once they cried,

"NO! I'm too young to be eaten!"

"Eren you dumbass! Look what you've gotten us into!"

"It wasn't even me!"

"I'm dead meat….Why did I even come along..."

"Don't worry, Christa, I'll keep you safe."

They ran under a big wooden bench. As they come to a large number of buildings stacked on top of each other. "So huge!"

"It looks kinda creepy."

The bell rang again. "Oh, shoot!"

Running in the oversized hallway, Jean spoke up, "Hey...don't you think...something's odd?"

"Way to go, Captain Obvious." Ymir snorted.

Eren shot back, "Just what do you think is odd?!"

Jean smirked at Ymir, "Apparently not enough."

"I'm not that dumb!" Eren cried at his TV self.

"Huh?! Does this look perfectly normal to you?!"

"Ah, there it is! Year 1, class 4! It's over there!"

They stood in a line before the massive door in silence. Connie spoke up, "Hey...I have no idea how to open this door...but it's not just because I'm stupid, right?"

"Just be quiet, idiot," Ymir said absently.

Ymir murmured, "Hey...isn't this…"

"Is there something wrong?" Erwin paused the episode and looked at Ymir. Levi and Hange also stared at the freckled girl in interest.

"When Commander Pixis was talking about how Eren is the result of humanity's experiments to turn someone into Titans, Connie also said something like that about what the Commander was talking about and I reply the same thing."

'So this is what Kuro mean about seeing events mixed up between the two worlds.' Armin and Erwin came to the same conclusion as the latter spoke up. "I see...I believe the 'future information will be in some of the scenes like this. Hange, please write everything down no matter how trivial it might be."

"I'll help, too!" Petra pulled out a similar notebook and began writing.

"Has anyone of you see something that looks familiar yet?" Erwin turned to the new recruits and asked.

"Nothing stood out yet, sir," Armin replied.

"I see. Make sure to tell us if you see something familiar."

"Look." Mikasa pointed to a human-sized door.

Cracking the door open, Eren walked in. "No one's here."

They tensed. The tables are huge, so this must be where the Titans are. And why were these kids walking into what was clearly the Titans' place without care? Aren't they scared of being eaten?

"And why the hell are there Titans at school?" Oluo grumbled.

"Don't you think something's strange?"

Eren snapped, "Just what do you think is strange—"

Eren was hit on the head with an eraser.

Both Mikasa cried out his name, but one of them clutched the Titan shifter's arm.

"A-An eraser?"

Eren stood up and angrily carved his name into it, "I'm gonna make a stamp out of it!"

Christa commented, "That stamp will be backward, right?"

"Calm down, Eren. Something really is strange."

"Like I said, just what is strange—"

A triangular ruler fell on top of his head as blood squirted out.

"Ahh! Ahh! Ow! Ow! Owwwwwww!" Eren flailed around.

"Anyone else curious as to why he hasn't bled out yet?" Petra asked her couch mates.

Levi shrugged. "Probably Titan regeneration bullshit."

Sasha, Connie, and Jean have terrified expression on their face as a titan picked Eren up.

"Huh?"

"Eren!"

"You suicidal bastard, you really are done for!"

"A-A Titan?!" He exclaimed before falling on his butt. The titan reached down to grab something.

"Run away while you still have a chance!" Armin whispered. None of them were wearing the maneuver gear, and there weren't any horses around.

Christa feels lightheaded. "How is this coexistence?!"

The titan picked the eraser up.

"A titan took something precious away from me!"

Jean interrupted, "Why didn't it eat him?"

"Is that an Abnormal?!" Hange gushed. "You guys are so lucky!"

"That's not really a word we'd use but sure, whatever."

Eren spluttered, "B-But Mom's not dead!"

"Maybe you were referring to the peace of your home? I mean, you did say 'something', not 'someone'." Armin offered.

The titan froze when it looked at the carved-up eraser.

Eren screamed in rage, "I'm going to drive you all out! Every last—"

The titan threw the eraser at Eren's face before a rain of school supplies landed near the rest as they tried to run away.

"Wh-What's going on?!"

"We wandered into one of the Titans' classroom!"

"'Titans' Classroom'!" Everyone deadpanned incredulously.

"I wanna be a teacher there!" Hange drooled.

Jean pulled down Connie's trouser as Ymir pulled Christa out of the way and everyone crashed into each other and out the door.

"Pervert." Ymir held Christa in one hand and glared at Jean while the poor boy stuttered.

"You brats! What are you guys doing?!" Hannes cried as he pointed the broom at them.

"Hannes?!" The Shiganshina trio exclaimed.

Levi raised a brow, "You three know him? Also, he's drunk."

"Yeah...he was like that in the past…." Eren chuckled nervously. "He used to be a Garrison member stationed in Shiganshina, but ever since the fall of Wall Maria from five years ago, he'd become a unit captain."

"He was the one who saved us on that day." Mikasa further explained.

Hannes laughed, "That sure was a disaster, huh?"

"It's not funny."

"Sorry. That's the Titans' school building. Your school building is this one."

Everyone stared, "Whoa…!"

"Welcome to Attack Junior High School!"

"I-It's normal."

Erwin paused. "So this is what a 'normal' school building in another world looks like."

"Is that a pool?!" Eren exclaimed. "That's so much water wasted!"

"And that brownish field with the white lining. What's that for?" Armin wondered.

Jean offered, "Exercising maybe? And I see a part of the river next to it. There's also a town on the other side of the Wall—Wait what?! Isn't that Wall Maria though?"

"Who knows."

"Year 1, Class 4, huh. Probably for the 104th trainee class." Kuro commented.

"Attention!"

Said trainees jerked awake at the familiar voice thundering at them.

"Homeroom for Attack Junior High's 104th Year 1, Class 4 begins now!"

"That's Instructor Keith!" Connie winced. He absently rubbed the spot where the man held his head up years ago. "Which means…."

"So the school is basically our life as a trainee?" Christa wondered.

Sasha laughed, "'Welcome to Attack Junior High! By Keith'? That's so not him!"

"Huh, that's strange," Jean noted. "Not everyone is there." And there's Marco, alive and well.

Eren exclaimed much to Mikasa's annoyance, "Ah! There's Reiner, Bertolt, and Annie!"

Petra whispered, "He's as loud as I remember."

"I know, right?" Eld winced.

"You have the misfortune of having me, Keith Shadis, as your homeroom teacher! I do not welcome you warmly!"

"The board speaks otherwise!" Sasha whisper-shouted.

"It's almost identical to the speech we received," Armin said. 'With this, we have reasonable assumptions that the future parts will be accurate.'

"In your current state, you'd be nothing but food for the Titans! You are mere livestock! You are less than livestock! You are worthless nothings!"

Marco turned to Jean, "Nice to meet you."

"Marco…" Eren whispered, 'That's right...we didn't even know what happened to him. Maybe this will show us.'

Jean was having similar thoughts, 'I want to know which sick Titan it was that only ate half of him and leaving Marco there to bleed out….I swear I'll cut it into pieces!'

"Now, I will have you start by introducing yourselves!"

Christa stood up and salute. "I'm Christa Lenz! Nice to meet you!"

"I'm Ymir." Ymir leaned over and grabbed Christa and pointed at the class, "If any of you lay a hand on my Christa, you are dead meat, got that?!"

"Damn straight!" The hidden shifter huffed.

"Be nice, Ymir!" Christa chided.

"I'm Annie Leonhart from Wall Maria South Elementary."

"Hmmm...'elementary'...gotta write that down into the 'Unknowns' list…" Petra noted.

"I'm Reiner Braun. Nice to meet you."

"Reiner looked so buffed." Connie laughed. "Like a gorilla."

"Next! Who the hell are you?!"

Connie stood up, "Sir! I'm Connie Springer from Wall Rose South District's Ragako Elementary!"

"Ha! It's even right to the salute!" Connie exclaimed.

Gunther commented, "That's the wrong side."

"'Ragako is a village south of Wall Rose, isn't it?" Levi remarked. "So is this 'elementary' like a village?"

"Who knows?" Hange shrugged.

"You have it backward, Connie Springer! Is your heart on your right side?! Next!"

They laughed at the way Shadis drilled his hands into the side of Connie's head.

"If I remembered correctly, then it's your turn next….'Potato Girl'." Eren smirked cheekily.

Sasha immediately dropped her smile.

"Eren? What are you talking about?" Petra asked.

"Wait 'til you see it," Jean replied for him as the trainee chuckled at what's coming.

"Y-Yes! I-I'm Bertolt Hoover. Nice to meet you."

"Next!"

"I'm Thomas Wagner!"

"I'm Mina Carolina. Nice to meet you."

Eren mumbled, "I'm gonna say it. I'm gonna say that I won't yield to the Titans—"

"I'm Franz Kefka and—" "—I'm Hannah Diamant!"

Mikasa sighed, exasperated. Eren continued mumbling, "—I'm gonna drive them out with all my might!"

"Next!"

"Yes, sir!" Eren immediately stood up and saluted, "I'm Eren Yeager from Shiganshina Elementary!"

"Why did you enter this junior high?!"

"In order to drive all the Titans out from this school...no, from the entire world!" He landed on the table with a foot stomping on it and exclaimed.

The entire class stared at him with a varied amount of incredulous expressions.

Jean snorted, "That was so lame, Yeager."

Thomas said, "Hey, he said he'd bring down the Titans."

"There's no way that humans can defeat the Titans." Mina whispered.

'Well, we sure have a chance now.' Erwin glanced at the Titan shifter as he grumbled about pessimistic idiots.

"What's with them? They are such downers."

Mikasa deadpanned. "That's not the issue here, Eren."

Jean chuckled, "Geez...Looks like we've got a weirdo in our class. I don't wanna have anything to do with bad news, including the Titans." He flipped his hair.

"Why did you join the Survey Corp, then? Some people say that we are a magnet for troubles." Eld curiously asked.

"I don't even know myself." Jean grumbled. "Probably have something to do with the way that Eren's insanity is contagious."

"Why you—"

"Shut it."

An order from Levi has the two sat down to glare at each other.

Eren asked, "Who are you again?"

Everyone from the 104th trainee class burst out laughing.

"Seriously?!" Ymir deadpanned through her laughter.

"Jean Kirstein! I've been with you since this morning!"

TV Jean's offended tone only serves to make them laugh harder.

"Eren, was it? Considering how you are, I bet you didn't fit in with your class in elementary school because you creeped people out."

"Yeah! So what?!"

"So 'elementary' is a school. Good to know." Hange nodded to Petra.

"For your information, I was a star player in our soccer club. On top of that, I did well in school, so I was very popular. I got twelve New Year's greeting cards last year—" Jean looked to the side, "well, that's adding in seasons greeting cards."

"Anyone knows what 'soccer' is?" Connie asked.

"Nope."

"What did you say?! I-I can't think of any specific examples off-hand, but I had lots of fun every day! Yeah, I did have fun!"

"Loser." Oluo scoffed.

"What's your problem?!" The two teens asked as they squashed their noses together.

"Stop it." Mikasa intervened. Her hair was blowing as Jean stared dumbly with a blush.

Jean, realizing what this is about, sunk lower into his sofa, 'Please don't tell me…'

"We are in junior high school. You should try getting along with your classmates."

Jean stared dumbly. Mikasa noticed his gaze and turned to him, "What is it?"

"Ah! Sorry! You have very pretty black hair."

"Ha! So is this the reason why you fought with Eren so much, right, Jean?" Sasha asked suggestively between squeals of laughter.

"You like like Mikasa, don't cha!" Connie added. Everyone was too busy giggling. Even from all the noises, Jean could hear Mikasa's bland voice, "I'll just pretend I didn't hear anything and move on."

Jean sunk even lower into his chair, too embarrassed to even look up.

Eren tugged on Armin's sleeve, "Is that why he was really angry after I told Mikasa to cut her hair?"

"Probably." Armin sent an amused smile his way.

"Eren, your collar is unbuttoned." Mikasa ignored Jean and ran up to Eren.

Eren smacked her hands away as Jean stared dumbly, "Stop it! I'm not your little brother or your kid!"

Jean grabbed Eren's uniform, "You bastard! I feel so jealous!"

Now even most of the veterans were laughing.

"Poor guy." Petra giggled.

Oluo nodded. "Hpmh. I can totally relate—I mean a popular guy such as I can't even begin to understand how you feel—UGK!"

"That's what you get for talking smack about other people."

"Huh?! Let go of me! If you pull that hard, you're gonna tear my uniform!"

Keith whacked the two on the head, leaving huge red bumps on as he noticed Sasha munching on an onigiri behind the textbook.

"Oh my." Eld smiled in amusement.

Sasha groaned as Connie pointed out. "Hey, where did the potato goes? Are we supposed to call you onigiri-girl now?"

Sasha pouted, "How about you call me by my name?"

"Hey...What do you think you are doing?"

Sasha stared at Keith defiantly before taking another bite out of the onigiri. Keith got into her face and screamed, "I'm talking to you! Who the hell are you?!"

Sasha swallowed, "I'm Sasha Blouse from Wall Rose South Elementary!"

The music began to swirl in the background as Keith looked at the shorter girl, "Sasha Blouse...What is that you are holding in your right hand?"

"Onigiri, sir! It's got moist wild salmon belly in it, sir!"

"Salmon!" Sasha drooled, "Sounds delicious!"

"Why…? Why did you decide to eat it now?"

"I couldn't eat my watermelon this morning, so I elected to eat it now."

"No, I don't understand. Why did you eat the onigiri?"

"Are you asking me why it's not the spicy mayo barbeque beef kind, sir?"

"I think I wanna try that."

The complete and utter seriousness of TV Sasha and her own words only made them laughed harder.

"Damn, even I won't have the guts to say that to his face." Gunther chuckled.

"I want one." Connie drooled.

"Yeah, what I said."

"If everything's the same...then here's the best part." Jean laughed.

"Ah!" Sasha broke her onigiri in half, made a face and give the salmon-less 'half' to Keith. "Here's half of it for you."

Even Erwin and Levi couldn't suppress a chuckle. That was barely a half, and without the fillings to boot.

"This seriously happened?!" Eld asked incredulously. "I can't believe it."

"Ha...lf?"

Sasha gave a strained smile at the Instructor.

The scene cut off and showed part of the school along with the Walls. "The entrance ceremony will begin soon."

"Woah! Who's talking?!" Oluo startled.

"Probably their announcer or something."

"Students are expected to come to the schoolyard with your lunch."

Sasha was shown holding two buckets with a large lump on her head.

The trainee chuckled as Sasha grumbled, "Yeah, yeah. Laugh it up, jerks."

"—I repeat. Please come to the schoolyard with your lunch."

"With our lunch?" Sasha repeated.

The students fall into salute at Keith's voice. "Attack Junior High's 104th entrance ceremony begins now! First, we'll have some words from our headmaster!"

A bolt of lightning hit the ground.

They tensed.

"Hey now...don't tell me….are we currently at the invasion of Trost?" Jear fearfully asked as the Colossal Titan appeared over the wall.

"Why would the headmaster be that?!" Petra exclaimed. "Or rather, why are the human teachers submitting the students to the Titans?!"

'Could it be…' Erwin's mind flashed. "Could the screen is implying that the Colossal Titan is the leader of the Titans?"

"That...would make sense." Armin slowly started. "At Shiganshina...and at Trost, too. Immediately after the Wall was kicked down, Titans started going in. It would make sense if it commands them to do so."

"Hange and Petra, get ready. I'm resuming it now." Erwin ordered. The two of them nodded, hands gripping their pen and turning into a new page of note.

The hand gripped the Wall tightly, leaving cracks behind as the students stared fearfully at the skinless red monster.

"I-It can't be…"

"Th-That Wall….is fifty meters high!" Connie exclaimed.

"It's one of them…a Titan!"

Eren trembled in anger. "He's…"

He flashed back to the moment when Hannes was carrying him over his shoulder as he cried, "Stop!", reaching his hand towards the Colossal Titan's direction where it was clutching something. Mikasa looked away, wide-eyed.

'It can't be…'

A flash of something was dropped but it was gone too fast for them to see.

"B-But Mom is still alive! And the Colossal Titan wasn't the one w-who…" Eren choked, "...ate her!"

"Eren. Calm down." Mikasa soothed him.

"Well, let's find out, shall we?" Jean's tone and his grim face say that he doesn't look forward to this one bit.

Eren glared, "He took something precious away from me!"

"Eren! You mustn't say it!" Mikasa warned.

The Colossal Titan kicked a hole through the Wall.

The new Survey Corp soldiers' face was stricken. They are going to die for sure now. Eren doesn't even know he's a shifter, and even then he's not going to be able to protect them and defeat that thing while fighting off all the other Titans that will eat them, and none of the soldiers have the maneuver gear on them to escape.

"We are done for…" Connie gritted his teeth.

Petra assured him, "You'll be fine. I'm sure that nothing bad will happen." But even she looks like she doesn't believe her own words.

Titans started walking in as the students desperately ran away. Mikasa tried to pull Eren away to no avail.

"Ahhhhhhhh!" Thomas screamed. He was in the mouth of a titan, staring at them wide-eyed.

Armin flinched at hearing the familiar voice. Eren gripped his hands tightly as his knuckles started to turn white. "Thomas…."

"D-Did he dies like this, too?" Sasha whispered fearfully.

Not trusting himself to answer properly, Armin gave a short nod.

The Titan tilted his head back and swallowed Thomas whole….before spitting him out again.

"WAIT, WHAT?!" The whole room screamed as one, all stood up from their sofa. Even Levi and Erwin couldn't keep the shocked look from their face.

"It spits Thomas out. It spits Thomas out! What the fuck is going on?!" Eren asked, bewildered.

"I-Is it an Abnormal?!" Hange questioned, "No, even Abnormals doesn't spit humans out after swallowing them."

"Hey...is this what Kuro means by coexistence?" Oluo asked, fearful for the answer, "Because if that's the case….I-I don't even know anymore."

"Let's find out." Erwin glared coldly at the screen and no one dared to question him. None even bothered to sit down.

"Thomas!" Mina cried.

"AH! My gyoza lunch!" The titan swallowed the lunch box whole.

"I-Is everyone else seeing this? Or am I just delusional?" Ymir asked shakily.

"My tuna sandwich!"

"Because it seems to me…"

"My salmon lunch!"

"—that the Titans of this world….eats human food instead of humans."

"So this is how they are!"

"My omelet!"

Eren stared at the Kawaii Titan picking up the omelet and fell down to his knee. Mikasa immediately kneeled beside him, "Eren—!"

Then he started laughing.

Everyone stared at him in horror, but he ignored them and continued laughing, albeit hoarsely, before his voice got smaller and he let out a furious roar that startled them all. Even the veterans couldn't suppress a flinch.

"A world where Titan eats our lunches instead of us?!" He snarled. "That is impossible! Unfair! Why did we get these monstrosities when the people in that world got off with just a lunch stolen?! Why?! So many people would've been saved if the Titans didn't eat them! What did Mom died for?! What did Marco, Thomas, Mina, Mylius, Nac died for?!"

His voice became broken, "What are we dying for?"

"We are dying for the people of the Walls."

Eren's head snapped up and he saw Levi glared at him. The captain grabbed his shirt and pulled him to eye level. "Don't complain about how life is unfair, because it always is, brat. Don't you dare say how good the people of that world as it because yes, while their situation might be heads and shoulders above us, they still have their own problems. If you are just going to sit there and whine like a piece of shit, then use that damn head of yours to figure out a way to control our own damn power to eradicate the Titans just like how you've been bitching for months now!"

Levi dropped him on the floor and walked back to his seat before plopping down, fingers moving furiously through his hair. Mikasa helped Eren up.

"It's true that all of us felt unfair because of our situation." Erwin started softly. "But we can't afford to stay in one spot and complain about how bad our lives are. We have to move on and actually do something about it. Eren, the world we are watching...it was never ours. We can't long for something that isn't ours to begin with. That is not right. We can only suck it up and move on."

"That's all we can do."

There was a stunted silence as the soldiers processed the Commander's words.

Eren looked down and berated himself for acting brashly. "I-I'm sorry, sir, I have been way out of line."

"Hn." Levi ignored his charge and took a sip of the tea on the table.

"Don't worry, we all have our moments." Erwin chuckled. "Let's see what happens next."

"Mom made me that fried chicken lunch!"

"Damn….even I'm mad at my TV self for yelling something like that when our people are being eaten." Connie whispered to Sasha.

Armin looked at the screen, 'Good thing that Franz is still alive and whole.'

"Eren!"

"It's happening again, just like that time."

"Does the Colossal Titan want Eren's lunch, too?"

"They take the things we hold precious from us!" Eren snarled. "I won't be threatened into submission!"

Eren dashed off before the Colossal Titan could grab him. "The target is right in front of me! The Colossal Titan!"

"Eren!"

"Ever the suicidal bastard, I see." Jean chuckled., feeling the need to blow away the still tense atmosphere.

He snatched the large drawing compass from Hannes and a broom on the stair, "This is my opportunity! For us junior high kids, this single step will be a great leap forward!"

He ran up onto the roof of a building and came to a stop, staring into the Colossal Titan's blue-grayish eyes as he rounded the corner and continue charging ahead.

"He's so huge." Christa murmured, watching the Colossal Titan leaning on the Walls, arms folded.

"Go, Eren!" Jean cheered.

'This is absurd…' Jean thought.

Eren leaped off the rooftop and straight onto the Colossal Titan's direction.

"I got him! Huh?"

Eren fell in midair.

Laughters and facepalms were equal in intensity.

"Dumbass…" Levi groaned.

The Colossal reached down and grabbed Eren's lunch box. "Ah!"

"Stop it! My precious…cheese Hamburg steak lunch!"

The deadpanned atmospheres was shared by the people in the room.

"Seriously?" Ymir groaned, "You really do live up to the name 'Suicidal Bastard', aren't you."

"Eren, you like cheese hamburg steak?" Armin asked his best friend.

"Well, not that much like the me on the screen," Eren darted a half-hearted glare to the groveling teen on the TV. "But yeah. Mom used to make it for me when we actually have enough money to afford meat and cheese."

Meanwhile, Mikasa's mind was filing through the names of people she can ask for cooking lessons.

The Colossal Titan swallowed and move down from view.

Sasha whispered, "Cheese Hamburg steak...?"

"He laid his life on the line over…a chee-burg."

"Hey, cheese Hamburg's delicious!"

"Chee-burg bastard."

Mikasa sighed, "This is why I told him not to say it."

"My chee-burg…"

The screen focused on the three silhouettes inside the school building.

"Ohhhhh is that who I think it is?!" Hange squealed excitedly as Levi tried to cover his ears.

"Ugh, shut it Four-eyes!"

Levi stared down at the scene and tsked, "Damn chee-burg bastard."

"What did I do?!"


"Okay, so let's do a recap, because I think we all need it." Jean messaged his forehead. "Not even half an hour ago, we were about to go on our first expedition ever before suddenly coming to this place. There we learn that we are going to watch an alternate universe which holds future events for us to separate and use from. Also, we learned that the Titan of the other world eats...human food instead of us, and Eren's an idiot."

"Hey!"

"And that I have another family." Mikasa added firmly.

"That too." Jean nodded, completely ignoring Eren.

Levi asked, "Did we learn anything useful?"

"Not really. The glimpses of the Colossal Titan were somewhat helpful, but the designs are different from our world so I can't tell much." Hange explained, "But we learned a lot about their world. Basically, they are far, far more advanced than we are.

"Then let's watch the next episode." Erwin said. "Does anyone needs a break?"

Everyone shook their heads.

"Then let us get to episode 2."


I hope that everyone wasn't too OOC, but then again, this is a Humor/Parody fic so I have a little leeway there. Like I said earlier, I reread Power to Strive more times than the actual manga itself, so there might be some similar details that I wasn't able to catch. If so, then sorry, but I'm human, I'm allowed to make mistakes.

What Kuro said about the future was somewhat true. AoT: Junior High has a lot of moments where it kinda showed the 'future' (this was just before the 57th expedition) just like that moment when Reiner and Bertolt got saved by a cannon. If the Scouts can pick this up, then they'll know what to expect (so something like 'I see, so sometime in the future, Reiner and Bertolt will almost get hit by a cannon. We just don't know when or where').

So how was it? Please leave a review; they really make my day!
