8 Dropped

I don't know, I don't feel like this is going anywhere. It was good while it lasted.

"So which one of you is the one with the high mana?" Jack said loud enough for Madara and Reiner to hear.

"May I ask you names and why you have traveled so far to come here?" Reiner said with his eyes closed.

"I take it it's you because that weakling over there couldn't possess it," Jack said not knowing that he pressed the button.

Madara and Reiner masked their mana to get the jump on them, but hearing his words angered him. Madara wanted nothing but to see him beg for his life.

As Madara was getting angry, his mana started rising, but Reiner put his hand on his shoulder and that calmed him down.

"Why are you here?" Madara asked making his voice as serious as possible.

"Look at the baby trying to sound intimidating," Anna said provoking Madara.

Madara didn't care who it was, his hands were rated E for everyone. The tension around them was tense as nobody was answering anyone's questions and Madara was getting angrier by the second.

"I know it's not the small fry over there, so old man come with us," Anna said like she was telling a dog to come to her.

"I have to ask, why are you looking for someone with high mana?" Reiner said not moving a muscle in a calm tone.

"We were kidnapped and experimenting on because some sick man wanted to experiment on someone with high mana," Anna said with noticeable hatred behind her voice.

"So you're saying it's one of our problems that you were kidnapped and getting experimented on?" Reiner asked with a raised eyebrow.

"That's exactly what I'm saying," Anna said as she glared at the old man.

"And, what will you if one of us is your target and we go with you, where will you go from there?" Reiner asked intrigued about what her response would be.

"I'll kill them for making my life and my brothers hell. It's your fault that we got kidnapped and you're going to pay for it," Anna said as Jack looked at her as if she were crazy.

"Are you crazy?! We came to scout not kill, what are you say!" Jack said in a loud whisper.

"You don't get it, it's because of hem this happened to us. If the weren't being a show-off this would have never happened to us," Anna said never taking her eyes off the two.

"Bu-." What Jack was about to say before he got interrupted.

"But what Jack? We go home, see our parents again, and live a normal life? That normal life ended when we were turned into these creatures and it's because of one of them. Don't you want to get revenge for what they did to you? What did they do to our parents and friends?" Anna said as she was getting her point across to jack who was finally understanding her reasoning.

Madara and Reiner could sense the malicious intent and they started stretching. Madara started jumping up and down to get his blood flowing.

Reiner did was breathing and took off the shirt he was wearing. Anna and Jack saw this as they concluded that they heard the conversation or sensed their intent.

"Jack you take care of the kid, I got the old man," Anna said as Jack dashed toward Madara as soon as she finished, but that's exactly what Reiner wanted.

[Wind Creation Magic: Wind Blade Barrier]

A spinning dome of air surrounded Anna, when she tried to walk through she got cut badly. This magic could be used for defensive and to trap someone.

Jack tried to help her, but it was to no avail now he had two people to deal with. Jack thought that it would be easier to take out the kid, but was he wrong.

Madara vanishes from his spot as he lands a powerful blow to Jack's stomach, which made his body freeze and spit-up a black liquid.

"That's for calling me and weakling, and this" Madara said as his figure moved faster than any except Reiner could follow. Madara kicks Jack in the head with so much force a loud snap could be heard as he went flying into a dozen trees.

"That was for calling me a small fry," Madara said as he took a deep breath still using the breathing technique because Reiner would still hit him in any situation.

'Damn it, that brat is stronger than I thought," Jack and Anna both thought after seeing what Madara just did.

Madara shoots a glare at Anna who doesn't react, but she could feel the bloodlust from him which made a cold sweat drip down her face.

"Now now, you must not kill him before I have a turn," Reiner said as he disappeared from where he was and appeared in front of Jack who was using the time to heal his broken neck.

'Wait, what did he just say-" Jack thought before he was grabbed by the hair and brought to his feet.

"Now, I will give you three options, option number one, you continue to fight my student," Reiner said still with his eyes closed.

'That's his student? Then what kind of monster is he then," Jack thought as he looked at the man with his eyes closed.

"Option two, you fight me," Reiner said then his voice filled with excitement as he said option three.

"Finally, option three, you fight both of us," Reiner said completely baffling Jack and Anna.

"I like option three," Madara called out which Reiner agreed.

"I didn't even get to chose an option," Jack said before a knee hit his stomach with tremendous force.

The force was so powerful that Jacks' knees felt weak, but before he could fall, he was kicked in the back and landed a few feet away from Madara.

An evil and sadistic grin appeared on Madaras' face as he found his prey. Madara kicks Jack in the chin which makes him fly up a few meters, but before he could hit the ground, Reiner comes up above him and does a summersault kick.

Jack flies straight into the ground, creating a crater from the force. Madara and Reiner watch as Jack regenerates and stands back up.

Madara punches Jack in the nose, he stumbles back a bit, but Reiner kicks him in the back so he wouldn't lose balance. Madara then punches him in the face followed by a kick by Reiner. Madara then punches Jack in the gut, then kicks him in the chest.

Jack was trying to block but the hits were coming in too fast, and the smiles they had on their face angered Jack. His mana started to raise due to frustration.

Madara and Reiner could sense a magic fight coming, so they increased their power and got off a few more hits before back off.

Jack was regenerating slowly because he used a lot of mana to heal his broken neck and cracked ribs.

Jack looks at Madara and Reiner with pure hatred then looks to his sister who could watch as he was beaten.

Jack lets out a yell as balls of fire came from his body. Madara and Reiner dodge them easily as a bright orange tint was around Jack who looked like he was ready to fight.

Madara and Reiner both create mana skin of their own. Madara was cover tinted by a white light while Reiner didn't time himself. He felt as if he didn't need it for this fight.

Madara ignored him as now the three of them were staring intently at each other, waiting for the other to make a move.
