Searching for happiness (Attack on titan X Fairy Tail Crossover)

Chapter X - It's enough, you monster!

Like statues, we three stood there without even lifting a muscle. All our attention was focused on the back door of this warehouse, where we had been sitting for so long. Even Wendy's cat had jumped up immediately and threw her poisonous glances, which usually I got away, to the door. The sounds from outside grew louder and finally it was clear that someone was working on the door from the outside.

"Blade incantation.", I whispered softly and immediately two narrow daggers formed in my hands. The coolness of the metal on my skin immediately gave me a reassuring feeling because with weapons in my hand, I always felt much safer. I glanced over at Wendy and Charle, who looked in astonishment and a little reverentially at my just-vowed weapons.

Suddenly, with a loud click, the door opened a few inches wide and from outside I heard a triumphant murmur. At least two people, I realized by the different voices and pressed me tight against the wall next to me. We did not know how many were there, so it was safer to have the element of surprise on our side.

In the meantime the dusk had begun, so that the view here in the back of the hall was already limited. Orange rays of the setting sun now slipped in through the crack of the door and lit up the room a little, but fortunately we were in the shade, so we did not could be discovered immediately.

Carefully, the door was pressed further and a dark massive silhouette entered the room with a slow step. At first glance, I realized that this had to be the kidnappers, because this first person was completely covered in the face and wore only dark clothes. Who else should get access to the back door of a warehouse in such a careful and secretive way?

I let the person enter the room a few more steps, fortunately he did not notice us. As just a second person entered, I rushed from behind on the first intruder and kicked him with full force from behind in the knees. Sure, that was not a fair way to bring someone down, but when you grew up in the street, like me, you learn that every means is right to win. Painfully, the person cried out and went to his knees, as I had to kick as hard as possible. Alarmed, the second person spun around.

"Danger! An ambush!", the person shouted, judging by the voice, this was a woman. Like the first intruder, she was completely dressed in black and covered her face, but under the mask a few bright, blond strands peeked out. At the same moment, she already clenched her fists and looked at me with piercing bright eyes.

"Stone Make!", she shouted and instinctively I acted lightning fast. Without even thinking about it for a second, I threw myself on her and rammed one of my daggers into her shoulder at the same time. Frightened, she screamed as I tore her to the ground and with that, I had achieved exactly what I had intended: I had interrupted her to cast a spell. So she was a magician, I thought as I pulled my dagger out of her skin. Probably the others were also magicians. In a flash, I straightened up over her and gave her another violent kick in the face, so she lay unconscious on the floor.

The first person had recovered from my attack meanwhile again and straightened up now puffing. This was obviously a man, because he was very stocky and towered over for lengths, but I was used to this circumstance now. Almost every one of my opponents had been taller than me. Now my opponent growled briefly before he straightened up completely and took a step in my direction. Just then, Wendy jumped next to me and I stared in horror. What did the brat want here?

"Sky Dragons ...", she started and only then did I realize that she also wanted to fight. But with her Sky Dragon Slayer magic she would not be able to do much in here, on the contrary!

"Are you crazy?", I shouted at her and pushed her aside so that she fell roughly to the ground and was interrupted in her spell. She squeaked in shock when she was knocked over by me, and at that very moment the man took advantage of me. As I had stopped paying attention to him for a few seconds, he now lunged at me, and as he rushed toward me, he produced two short short sabers under his clothing.
