74: “Knowing us, this is bound to go wrong.” for MSBC!Eren
“Knowing us, this is bound to go wrong.”
Coming from the mouth of a boy who can wield bad luck as his magic, it doesn’t make Marco feel any better about what lays before them. In the distance a burst of fire erupts and the faint sound of screaming can be heard. Eren and Marco make no move to leave their spot at the front gate.
The both of them really don’t want to move. The building in front of them is a giant mass of ramps, flaming hoops, and deathtraps. There’s evil laughter coming from somewhere inside and Connie’s voice can be distinctly heard going “My leg!”.
“Can you sabotage it? That’s your specialty, right?” Marco asks. He winces as more screams come from inside, praying the inside of it all doesn’t look as bad as what he can see on the surface.
“Too many variables. We’d end up causing a domino effect and I’d rather not kill someone because I was careless.” Eren purses his lips, squinting into the depths of the school with a frown. “Jean inside?”
“He was in the home ec room when the building changed,” Marco sighs. “What do we know about the victim?”
“Upperclassman. Failed her attempt to get onto some extreme sports show. Don’t know what her trinket is.” Eren lists off the information without much enthusiasm. He only knows the details thanks to Hitch’s grip on the school gossip, it wasn’t hard to piece together what happened after the building changed.
“Alrighty then.” Marco takes a moment to breathe, nodding to Eren as they raise their arms and prepare to change. “Guess we’ll just wing it and hope we don’t die.”
Eren snorts, muttering under his breath before he signals his ring to begin the transformation.
“And your sister says I’m the bad influence.”
