Eren finds a cabin and makes a plan in order to save Mikasa by acting like an innocent lost boy in the mountains, with this plan he was able to stab one of the robbers, as well another one before freeing Mikasa from the ropes. The final robber arrives and immediately kicks Eren and later choking him, Eren weakly encourages Mikasa to fight the man which then later awakens her power. Mikasa successfully kills the last robber and saves Eren. Grisha gathers the two while the police investigate the murder, with Mikasa now being an orphan, Grisha takes Mikasa in.
