Elizabeth Reed
Side of house in Miyama
7 AM

Elizabeth slowly blinked her eyes open from the soft melody of a few birds in the area, the shifting and rustling of trees and grass from near by was very relaxing, almost enough to make her fall asleep again, but she had business to do now. And also a stiff pain ran through her entire body as sh slowly started to get up from the wall she had slept against. Her eye winced from pain for a quick second as a few of her light green strands of hair were yanked out and stuck to the brick wall as she stood up. Slowly turning around to look at them and sighed. Her moments were slow and Dazed.

She brushed her hair to one side, feeling the slick grease clinging to her hair as she let out another sigh. Looking down to check the time, and then slowly gazing up at the sky, as if needing to confirm this time. "7 AM....I should have extra time, but might as well be early just in case. I got nothing better to do. I should probably freshen up too...Being homeless is not an excuse to not keep myself maintained I guess." She said as she started to feel the light from the sun as it slowly started to make its way through the darkness.

She yawned with a large stretch, cracking her neck and back. She then slowly stared to make her way to the fuyuki park. However, before then, she made her way to a near by store so that she would be able to freshen herself up, make herself a bit more presentable. Before heading out and made it to the Fuyuki Park. Once she had made it there, she didn't really know where to go exactly. Her hair was still very damp, and her face was damp as well. Since that was all she could wash before one of the ladies had kicked her out. She sighed and sat down on a park bench to wait. With a large yawn as she sat there watching other. Her stomach let out a loud roar as she looked down at her stomach and made a weird voice as she held it. Making a small frown. "Maybe I should have gotten a job.." She mumbled exhaling softly

At the sudden action of Kirei, the Overseer of the Seventh Holy Grail War was left utterly speechless, finding it hard to come up with a response to this. Without a doubt, there must've been an ulterior motive to all this, but even so, the very fact that he had sacrificed his own Servant... No more importantly, what he'd said afterwards.

"In... Indeed. I saved Miss Elizabeth and Berserker once, but should another event occur, it will be pointless for me to waste more energy in intervening." Caren spoke. "While its powers may certainly be convenient, using the Holy Scripture Raviel has a very definite cost. Thus, rest assured that I will not interfere in your mindless scuffles again."

She took a glance at holy artifact in question, like a crystalline chandelier hanging low from the ceiling, to note the battle that had occurred between Lancer and Archer & Saber whilst this was all going on. The others wouldn't be able to hear or watch the events, since they did not possess a contract with it, which was convenient for her since, even in situations like these, she could do her job and collect relevant information.

Then afterwards, once things seemed to be done on the other side, Caren turned back to the others just as the morning daylight began to penetrate in through the glass panel near the ceiling, showering her with light as well as signifying that dawn had come.

"Now then... It was nice to have the opportunity to question your reasons for fighting without going out of my way to meet you, but apart from that, don't you think that this is merely wasting time for all of us, when we could spend it on more precious things? We've wasted a whole night here, after all.

So! If you're all done here, then could you lot please get out of my damned church?"

Master of Archer: Emiya Shirou
Fuyuki Park
7.30 a.m.


Shirou sat on a bench in the park, staring at nothing in particular. He had sat there for at least half an hour, mulling over how badly Archer was hurt, what to do with Elizabeth and what Archer meant by that smirk before the Counter Guardian managed to catch himself and play innocent.

Oh yes, he had seen that smirk. He remembered it all the way back in the Fifth, when that annoying guy had slashed him with Kanshou and Bakuya after telling him to "drown in your ideals and die". That smirk meant trouble, and he wasn't sure what it would be.

It would be nothing harmful, I'm sure, but...gah! It's so annoying to not know what he's thinking! And he knows exactly how to rile me up!

Shirou grimaced, annoyed that his Servant was being such a - for the lack of a better word - dick. He checked his watch again and it read 7.30am.

Again.

Honestly, did time travel so slow when he thought of depressing stuff? Shirou slumped further on the bench, his breaths letting out tiny puffs of water vapour. Above him, the multi-coloured leaves on the giant tree in the playground glided downwards, revealing that autumn was about to give way to winter.

There's no way I'll be as annoying as that guy when I grow up...Tch, could he have drawn me here just for fun? But Berserker's Master might really come. Damn that guy!

Just as he was imagining stabbing his Servant with Gae Bolg up his nether regions, he noticed someone else behind him, sitting on a bench just behind the tree.

Could it be...?

With that thought, he approached the woman on the bench, silently cocking his hammer in his head to turn on his circuits just in case.

"Hello, are you Elizabeth-san?" Shirou asked.

EDIT: Edited post to go with Barbarian1's edited parts. We'll pretend Shirou is Shirou and did not notice a hot girl close to him :D

What is this? Why did he do this? Everything happened so fast, Caster could barely take it all in.

Master... She needs a new contract and she needs it fast. One of these... no, they're out of the question. She has to get away, find someone suitable...

Caster flies out into town as fast as she could. Not long after, she spots a familiar figure.

"That girl... She was there with Berserker. But I can't sense anyone with her. And if I can remember correctly, she did use an interesting form of magecraft back then. I could use her..."

She lands down a safe distance from Elizabeth, where no one could see her, and walks toward her.

"Why, hello there, miss. I know you might hold a grudge against me, but would you be willing to hear me out?"

((Naturally, she doesn't notice Shirou as a mage and considers him a regular pleb.))

What.

What.

What.


Perhaps it was the mana deprivation Caster had, or maybe he was just too plain-looking, but the Servant of the Spell had completely ignored him like he was just another tree in the park.

Indignation bubbled within him. Really now, even Gilgamesh, who hated his guts and called him a mongrel, had acknowledged his existence (by spamming swords at his face, but hey, that was better than outright ignoring him).

Ignoring the wiser part of his mind - that sounded way too much like Archer for his liking - he decided to poke his head into the situation.

He prepared the blueprints of Kanshou and Bakuya in his head, and strode over to Caster.

"Eh. Caster. Hello?"

7:30 AM

Elizabeth turned to look at Shirou as she saw him approach her. She turned to look up at him at first, with a questioning look, but sense he had already known her name. She instantly had jumped to the conclusion that this was the man Archer had told her about the night before. And her face quickly began to light up as she gave him a warm, welcoming grin. Shooting up from her bench to and extending her arm to shake hands. "Well, hello there mister! I am certainly am Elizabeth! And just who might I be blessed with the presence of on this marvelous morning in Fuyuki?" She chirped as she suddenly seemed to have a colossal boost in energy.

She then turned as Caster landed down beside the two of them, and she turned to from Shirou to acknowledge her presence. She narrowed her eyes a bit trying to recognize her, but within moments it became clear who this girl was...She stepped back for a moment started at the girl blankly, her eyes widened, as shock images went through her head of that ambush...The one Kotomine and Caster, as his servant formed...The ones who killed Ashikaga...She snapped back into reality within the next second and then leaned forward giving Caster a hard stare. Trying to get what angle she was trying to get at. At first, she could have swore it was a joke. Realizing it wasn't she quickly turned to Shirou and paused. Dipping her head out of respect. "Please don't mind me. It will only be a few minutes I promise."

She apologized and turned back to look at Caster. And took a few steps forward as she clenched her fists to control her anger. "Alright...Just tell me what could you possibly gain from talking to me right now? What do you want from me Caster?"

Caster was quite surprised. The boy somehow knew her. But that's beside the point, she doesn't have the time to deal with him now. She needs to hurry. With that in mind she turned to Elizabeth.

"As pathetic as it may sound, I'm afraid that even I was a victim of my master. Just so it happens that I ended up being played with against my will and discarded. So, as you may guess, I am now without a master. And it would seem you don't have a servant. We could help each other, we both seek the same thing, no? Also, your magecraft could help us become the most powerful pair, making it easy to enact vengeance on whoever you'd want. Especially that priest.

"What say you?"

She was unsure about what she was doing, but brand new opportunities seemed to jump out in front of her left and right all the sudden. At this point, it was overwhelming. She bit on her lip, could she really trust the words and claims of Caster. Even after everything that had happened...But even if everything else was false...Their was one thing that was defiantly in common between the both of them. They had both been wronged by that damned Kotomine....She supposed that was enough. Also, she had no doubt that with caster on her side, she would very well have a great chance at wining, or at least achieving her goal. Sense this other boy beside her had also decided to fight for the same reason she did, according to Archer. She was certain they would be able to pull it off now.

Elizabeth sighed and face palmed herself. "I suppose there are a lot of grudges that I have to set aside for the greater good....Very well Caster. If you have came all this way to speak this much. I can only assume it is because you are serious...Very well. I will make a contract with you and become your master..." Then she thought to herself. "I really hope I don't regret this." She then nodded "However, I hope you will give my..." She paused still not knowing his name before continuing "Acquaintance a bit more respect in the future." She said putting a hand on Shirou's shoulder

And lo and behold, Shirou was ignored.

...
Tch. Never mind. More concerningly...


Medea, the Princess of Colchis and Witch of Betrayal stood in front of his potential ally, offering her a very suspicious contract.

"As pathetic as it may sound, I'm afraid that even I was a victim of my master-"

Shirou raised an eyebrow at that.

Really? You getting outgambled by a dead fake priest? You?

He wasn't as young and green as before; he knew something was fishy.

"-making it easy to enact vengeance on whoever you'd want. Especially that priest-"

Now that was nice and all but he really didn't trust her after all the things she pulled in his War.

"What say you?"

If she was asking him, it would be a big "no", but alas, he was still a tree in her eyes.

Time to change that.

"Caster," Shirou began, taking another step forward to the duo in front of him. "I'm not sure what you're doing, but if you're trying to trick Elizabeth-san into accepting some geas or phony contract...If you really are in need, go ahead and wait for Elizabeth-san's decision. But if I see any deception coming from you..."

Shirou flared up his circuit, letting prana flow through him and making sure he had everyone's attention.

"...I will personally ensure you deliver a kind message back to that filthy priest."

He stared at Caster, 17 swords ready to spring into existence around him.

Now, show me Caster. Show me if you're still the same scheming witch from my past or a truthful, desperate Servant in need.

Yes, she did take Shirou's words under consideration, but considering the fact that she didn't know how to summon another servant (Assassin) And she recognizes Caster as a powerful servant. It would be a pretty good thing for her, at least for now xD I will respond to that in a moment though.

*Lancer reports to his master as usual*

As Lancer rests up to recover from those red arrows of Archer,

He then wonders who Archer meant by "I know a Golden Servant who might have a weapon to counter you"

Golden servant huh... he must have been one of high royalty... Since my days when I was still alive, the royalty has always been my enemy... Has fate prearranged the inevitable meeting that will happen soon?

"Ah, but of course. But you must understand that I was hard pressed with time, pleasantries had to wait. Then, with this, our contract is complete... Master."

Three new command seals appear on Elizabeth and she feels the connection with her new servant. As the deed is done, Caster turns to Shirou.

"With that out of the way... I don't know how you know of me, but you don't have to worry here, boya, this is a regular contract. It does seem like you have an interesting trick up your sleeve, though. I would assume you were a master, but I don't sense any servant around. What is your role in this war and what is your relationship with my master? Now that we are contracted, her safety is in my best interest, you understand."

He looked like an ordinary boy at first, but Caster quickly changed her mind after his display. She'll have to keep an eye on this one...

Master of Caster: Elizabeth Reed
Fuyuki Park

Elizabeth turned to look at Shirou as he stood there and began to talk. She might have just been jumping to conclusions, but it seemed in a way he had almost been saying it to protect her? Elizabeth, a girl he had just met only seconds earlier. She blinked a few times turning to listen to him very quickly. The way he reated it was as if he had distrusted her from another experience, perhaps something that Elizabeth didn't know about form this war...And that wouldn't be very surprising. But she was still grateful, whatever it might have been. Then she let out a small chuckle. Patting Shirou on the back. "Relax, its fine my good friend. As long as me and Caster become partners, we are allies. And the way I see it, turning your back or deceiving a helping hand is pointless. I will have your back. And once I make the contract, Caster will too. I can handle the situation, no need to be beating the shit out of each other. I came here to talk to you after all. Archer told me that we have the same goal...And for that reason alone. I will fight with you as long as I can if you allow it." She gave him a warm grin and a thumbs up with her other hand.

And then turned to Caster to give her a warm grin as well...Turning to face her quickly and extended a hand to Caster with the same wide grin. "Same goes with you Caster. I think we will make a great partnership. And we will fight in this grail war, to end all grail wars!" Extending her hand to to shake with Caster.

Shirou smiled grimly in his mind as Elizabeth completed the contract, binding her to Caster and vice versa. He hoped for her sake that this was a good move, and that Caster wouldn't betray her.

Then she patted him on the back, declared that she was his ally, and Shirou quickly dismissed his 17 blueprints, afraid that he would accidentally fire them on reflex.

Considering how stressed I am right now, I honestly won't count that out. Oh well, at least things turned out for the better for now.

Shirou smiled warmly at the newly-contracted Master and said, "Elizabeth-san, thank you for declaring yourself as my ally. I, erm, I would love to be your ally as well." And stupidly enough, a small blush formed on his face.

Why can't I be as stoic as that guy? He wouldn't blush in this situation. Arrgh, did I just say I wanted to be like him? I don't even...

Pushing all the conundrums and deeply conflicted emotions he had regarding the situation and his wayward Servant, he took Elizabeth's hand and shook it.

He then turned to the Servant who had finally noticed him. This Caster...she seemed sincere enough in defending her Master for the time being, but Shirou still couldn't put down his guard just yet.

"Regarding what you asked me, Princess of Colchis," and he let himself channel a bit of that goon just to prove he wasn't full of hot air, putting on a smirk that Archer would be proud of, "I am one of the Masters in this War, Emiya Shirou. I wish to form an alliance with your Master prevent the Grail from falling into the wrong hands."

Shirou took Caster's speechlessness as a cue for him to continue, and he looked over at Elizabeth. "Elizabeth-san appears to be a kind and talented person, so having her by my side when I face Kotomine" - the false's priest's name was spat out like vermin here - "would be great."

Shirou sighed, his shoulders drooping as he said, "Ugh, I can't act like him at all. Regardless, I won't harm your Master, since she's my ally now. And I won't harm you if you don't do anything bad, alright?" His tone had switched back to his usual, having thrown away the rather useless facade of Archer he had tried using. He couldn't be all snarky like him and could not keep that smirk on his face.

For good measure though, he turned to Elizabeth and told her, "Elizabeth-san, I think it's best you ask her what her Noble Phantasm is. This is probably something you want to know before you start trusting each other completely."

Caster shakes hands with Elizabeth, then turns toward Shirou with a serious face. He knows who she is?! Why? This could prove to be a problem...
She considers asking him about it, but decides against it. Even knowing who she is, he's still willing to trust her somewhat? He may prove to be gullible. She really shouldn't worry yet, it's still under control. Her stern face quickly changes into a smile.

"Now, however short, this time without a master has caused me to lose more mana than I would like. I shall return to my spirit form to rest, but before that I would like to ask you to have a word with you in private later when you have time. There is a matter I wish to discuss concerning your magecraft. Please keep it in mind, Master. I'll also answer any question you might have."

With that said, Caster fades away, but stays close in case Elizabeth needs her.

She chuckled from the way he responded and gave him a nod. "Right, I am glad I could gain your trust Shirou." She said and then raised an eyebrow when he said Noble Phantasam, but only a second later it clicked and she nodded. "Oh, yes right!" She said turning to Caster as she was about to repeat what Shirou said before Caster declared that she would take her leave now. So she nodded and waved Caster off. "Alright, I will look forward to it." She exhaled and then turned to Shirou again. "Sorry about that whole mess there..I will admit I was not expecting anything like that to happen." She said as she watch him slump his shoulders. As her own stomach started to make a loud ugly roaring sound. And then she rubbed her stomach again and wrapped and gave him a slap on the back.

"How about we continue a conversation over a bit eat huh? That always cheers me up." She blushed as she turned away being embarrassed to admit it as she exhaled. "I it's on me...But I am kind of dirt poor, and I lost my apartment to rent so...I haven't eaten sense yesterday morning...I could really use an energy boost myself..."

Fuyuki Central Park

Saber and Okabe walked towards the Central Park.

---Fifteen Minutes Ago---

In order to not be mistaken as an insane medieval cosplayer, Saber had requested Okabe to arrange a casual wearing attire for her so she might be able to blend in. Okabe, profoundly delighted by this new ordeal, disappeared into the depths of his house. Saber prepared herself for a black suit, but what was shoved into her hands was...

"Master... this is a lab coat," she said, puzzled.

"Of course it's a lab coat, 5th Century Woman!" Okabe retorts with an air of superiority. "What did you expect, a suit??"

"I actually d--"

"Go, go and put it on!" the scientist shoved her into a room. "If you want you can wear something underneath, though I might not have fresh shirts and pants available so you may scrounge the dirty laundry for those!"

After Saber emerged from the room changed into new clothes, Okabe actually shed a tear of happiness, grabbing Saber firmly by the shoulders and shaking her.

"Now," he spoke, voice wavering due to non-containable happiness. "Now, we are truly one and the same. LET US PUT OUR HANDS IN OUR POCKETS!"

---Presently---

Saber enters the garden with Okabe in tow. The explanation given to Okabe regarding why they were here today was limited and not fleshed out ("Master, we'll be attending a meeting with the Master of Archer in order to gain intelligence as well as discuss prospective alliance"). The Master, however, didn't pay heed and appeared satisfied with almost any explanation that Saber gave; probably, he didn't even listen to them.

She senses the mana of her company before they appear in front of her vision.
Elizabeth is there and, very near Elizabeth is a hidden... Caster...
Caster.
How is Caster here?
And besides the unexpected duo stood a man. A red-haired man with faint white streaks.

Saber's heart stopped along with her walk.

Archer has been sitting on the couch. His armor has already repaired itself, and wounds have started to heal.
'Well, at this rate, I should be ready when the night falls', Archer mutters. 'In the meanwhile, what should I do...', he wonders, being bored, and starts cleaning around the house out of a whim.

Fuyuki park, around the same time

"How about we continue a conversation over a bit eat, huh?", Elizabeth says to him. Remembering what happened mere 11 hours earlier, Shirou looks troubled for a moment.

"Why not come to my house", Shirou says with low voice, blushing a little as he fumbles around. He then looks at where Caster was when she dematerialized: "You're invited as well, Caster. I have tons of questions for you as well."

Turning away from the two, he looks as he's going to head away... and stops in his tracks as he sees a familiar figure.
The one from long ago.
Of one girl he didn't manage to say proper goodbye.

"Saber?" Okabe prodded.

Shirou stood a few feet ahead of her, gripped by the same electrocuted state in which she was. It really was Shirou. She needed more time to believe it. She needed more time to think and adjust to the situation around her and ingest the fact that Shirou Emiya, heir of Kiritsugu Emiya, the boy she had cherished in her past life in this world, was standing before her.

Elizabeth gave a wide grin when he made the offer for her to come to his place...Her head seemed to be in her stomach at the moment, as food was the only thing she was equating things to at the moment. "Really?! That is awesome!" She said and then turned to look at Caster, chuckling for a moment at her response to Shirou."Don't worry Caster, I wouldn't want you to feel un comfortable." And then thought about it for a moment. And then turned to look at Shirou again as she raised and eye brow, then her eyes widened as she noticed his blush which made her cheeks blush bright red as well.

Then turned back to Caster. "Don't be jumping to such strange conclusions! We only just met today you know? As in, no more than 20 minutes ago!" She yelled before she quieted down quickly and coughed. Her stomach growled again as she looked down at it and squeezed it. "If only you could conjure cash.." She grumbled "We should get going, I don't wanna end up dying of starvation in this war.." When she noticed Shirou started to move, so did she, sure that Caster would follow. Before she then she noticed he stopped and saw Saber...But at the same time. She was very confused...Saber wouldn't normally decide to wear a lab coat would she? But then she looked over to her master walking with her, she nodded as she understood what was going on. At least, what she thought of. They were symbolizing that they were a team by wearing close to the same outfit...However, if that was the case she didn't know how to respond to it.

'She can't possibly remember me, can she?', Shirou thinks, now knowing what to say.

However, as in on cue, Archer speaks to him over their link as he senses Shirou's hesitation: "She remembers you. Don't be a wimp."

After he takes a deep breath and calms himself, Shirou smiles at her and speaks up: "Welcome back, Saber."

His eyes, questioning Saber's getup, then fall on Okabe: "So, that's your Master now, eh? I hope he's better than I was."
After small pause, as he suddenly remembers, he adds: "Oh, I invited Elizabeth-san to lunch, would you want to come? For the old times' sake, if nothing else."

He smiled that warm smile of his and spoke. He was talking to her, speaking, but Saber was a bit too overwhelmed to respond to him properly.

"..would you want to come? For the old times' sake, if nothing else."

She took a breath to collect herself.

She isn't Shirou's servant anymore. She at least owed her master that stoic face.
"Hm!" she nodded with zeal, feeling true happiness.

Elizabeth turned to look at Saber, and narrowed her eyes for a moment looking down as she bit her lip. Before bring her head up again. And then waved to Saber. "Hey, I just wanted to apologize to you, until last night. I thought you were just some sort of psycho like kitomine who acted out of malice...But, I can see now that this clearly wasn't the case...And I really do owe you big for saving me and Archer last night the way you did...That was quite the move on your part. I am truly grateful."

Saber accepted.
He felt happiness... and that happiness reflected on his face.
However, as he glanced at Okabe, he forced himself to remain composed.

"Alright, let's go then, or Elizabeth-san might starve." He then turns back to Elizabeth: "There's a bit of walking, but otherwise it's not far."

Shirou then heads towards Emiya residence, turning only once to check that everyone is following.

*Shirou walks to the Emiya residence. Duration: 20 minutes.

"Is something displeasing you, Master?" Her master's distress was really hard for her not to notice.

Bazett looked down after noticing her servant's worried look, "Rider." She mumbled. "This won't do. This won't do at all."

“What appears to be the problem, Master?” The purple haired servant fully understood the meaning behind her master's sentence, but asked regardless.

"I feel like i should apologize to you Rider..."

“For what?”

"For being selfish and toying with our chances at obtaining the Grail" The magenta haired magus looked up to face her servant. "With your chances."

“We still have a chance and that's what matters. I’ll keep fighting. Even if i got defeated, as long as we have a chance that's really all that matters”Rider said with a face as stoic as ever.

Her master didn't respond for almost a minute.

Then she stood up, glanced at Rider, and left with a completely different look in her eyes.

She's been patiently waiting...

Since the beginning of the war, she's been patiently trying to make as much allies as possible...
Waiting for an opportunity. For her chance...

She was denied an alliance with two powerful Servants...
She was denied her chance for a turn around at The Einzbern Castle...
She was forced to sit around as servants fought, and alliances formed...

That's why she had to rethink her strategy...

No more stalling...
No more waiting around...

If a master is going to stop her, then the idiot doesn't know who he's dealing with...
If a servant is going to stop her, then they really don't know the might of hers...

Bazett left the room that night with one thought, and one thought only filling her mind...

This Grail War won't be the same from now on...

Lesser men may arrogantly claim they can accomplish such a feat. But only someone like her can actually back those claims. And that someone will make sure of it...

Okabe tilted his head as he looked at the short red haired man walking away. Placing one hand on his chin, he pondered as he shifted his line of sight from Saber to Archer's master.

In a sudden moment of realization, Okabe's eyes widened. "Oh, I see now. Former lovers, are we? This young man hath taketh your heart? Oh how the sunset lit beaches must've radiated as you skipped through with your hands entwined!"

Okabe had not realized that his voice had acquired a noticeable edge as he went on, which drew Saber's curiosity.
"Master, are you okay?"

The mad scientist's thoughts suddenly froze, before he turned away from her with his arms folded. "Of course. I have nothing more to add. Let's just move on."

She grinned and then turn to nod at Shirou. "Well, there we go! I can't wait, I haven't eaten in ages, it is really taking a toll on my mood." She said and turned around to ask Caster a question. "Hey Caster, do servant's normally need to eat food or get hungry? Or does it not really work like that?" She asked as they continued to walk with them. Her stomach grumbled once again, loudly roaring at the group as she chuckled. "Sorry about that...I can't help it.." She said, turning quickly to watch Saber's master as she laughed a little bit at his comments. Everyone seemed to have connection's in this war from another time...It was actually pretty weird for her. Especially sense servants seemed to recognize masters from before as well. But the concept was to confusing to wrap her head around, so she simply shrugged it of and continued to move on.

As Saber's affirmative ended with a smile on Shirou's face, she heard Elizabeth turn to face her.

"...And I really do owe you big for saving me and Archer last night the way you did...That was quite the move on your part. I am truly grateful."

At first, the King of Knights was left a tad bit confused, but then it dawned on her: the battle with Berserker, Ashikaga and the aftermath. Emiya Shirou's presence had dulled all her senses for a few moments, so much so that she had, subconsciously, failed to assess the situation at hand properly and the threats present.
Ever since Ashikaga's death, Elizabeth's face only held malice for her, even though they had never properly interacted on a personal level before. Saber felt somewhat ashamed to be facing a victim of betrayal in which she held a role.

Bowing her head, Saber responded.
"I had no choice in the matter. I only did what I did in order to ensure my Master's safety. There was no personal enmity involved, I assure you, Elizabeth."

Raising her head again, she added, "I am sorry for your loss."

Elizabeth seemed satisfied with Saber's mild 'apology'. She suggested they all go eat and Shirou invited them to his residence. Saber and Okabe followed (Okabe, for a change, seemed to be observing these events unfurl with a much more intense silence than was thought possible for him).

Elizabeth nodded and accepted her apology. She had felt more bad for judging Saber...Her mind was cleared at this point and she was willing to forgive most...most...She chuckled softly. "Yeah, don't worry about it...I understand why it needed to be done. It was a good call on your part...Really." She started, as that sentence was kind of hard to put together...Considering she that on a personal level. She would always be ignorant to recognize the planning that lead to Ashikaga's death as great tactics. But it didn't matter at this point, what was in the past was in the past. She then turned her attention to Caster and nodded. "Huh, interesting.." She said as she thought about it for a moment.

Elizabeth continued to walk backwards for some reason. Duration: 19 minutes

As they all headed towards the Emiya residence, Saber felt a prickly sensation on her neck again--the very same she felt the night before the battle with Berserker had unfolded. When she had confronted Caster.

A moment later Caster's voice was heard, though it was directed at Elizabeth.

Saber groped for her invisible sword. She was still unaware about the adjustments made to fit Caster with them. She was unable to decipher what the change of situation could be. She decided to remain quiet and hold her questions till after some settlements had been made. Caster's presence was not welcomed by her, but she could do nothing about this currently.

"Okabe" she murmured. "Stay close to me."

"I sense a union of servants, Master!" Rider said in a sudden tone. "Saber and Caster are rapidly approaching Archer"

"Let's go!" Bazett said with no hesitation.

...

'This combination of servants doesn't make sense.'
'Why is Saber accompanying Caster؟'
'Why are they headed towards Archer's base and his master's save house?"
As the rushing air collides with Bazett's face those thought rushed through her mind.

She doesn't understand.
She lacks information.

Shirou has been leading the group silently, thinking about the sudden situation he's been stuck into. "Damn you, Archer... you could've at least tell me she was coming", Shirou mutters, that sighs: "I think that bastard is grinning like an idiot he is right now..."

He then quickly checks the group that's been following him, counting all people present. Of course, Caster was invisible, but what interested him more is Saber's current master... who seemed to be pouting right now because of something.

Emiya residence, around 8 AM



Once the group comes to the Emiya residence, Shirou takes out the keys he's been holding to and unlocks the doors to the residence. He then heads to the doors of the house itself and unlocks them, then stands near to let his guests pass.
"Go on, make yourself at home. I'll prepare something to eat soon", Shirou says to the guests and goes to make it little more comfortable, as he shut down everything when him and Archer have left the residence.

After basic stuff is done, inside and outside, Shirou heads back to kitchen, but remembers that he didn't lock the front door as a safety precaution and goes to lock it. It won't help against Servants... but at least any outsiders won't interfere.

As she walked, she had noticed that Saber had suddenly stiffened up and pulled Okabe closer to her. She sighed as she knew the reason could only be Caster. She kept looking behind her as she walked. She couldn't really see Caster herself, but she knew that Caster was pretty close behind her. Elizabeth frowned a little bit...She understands that Caster has a rather bad rep, hell. It should be normal for her to hate and resent Caster as well...But for some reason. She felt like it was better to put faith and trust in Caster. While she didn't think the rest could do that yet, the least she could do was put them at ease while around her. Casters rep to the others was defiantly something that needed improving.

As partners, it was only natural for her to want to help Caster improve whether she wanted it herself or not, Elizabeth couldn't really say for sure. For now, all she could really do was find some sort of way to loosen the tension. "Feel free to do what you want Saber, but I swear as long as I am here. Caster won't do anything to harm you and your master. After all, I am her master now. It is in my best interest that she doesn't attempt anything harmful unless the need arises, which I doubt." She added as they made there way to the Emyia residence which made her turn around to admire it in awe, as she went in.

"Wooooah. I can't believe it! This is awesome!" She chuckled as she looked around the place as she entered. Being a nomad, and then living in a rinky dinky apartment for her whole life. She felt like she had just stepped into the house of a billionaire. And it was easy to tell with the excitement in Elizabeth's face that this place impressed her. "Me and Ashikaga could never afford this! his is amazing Shirou." She complimented as she continued to look around and wander. Observing every little detail. Her eyes shone with admiration.

The whole place seemed so open. Everything was neat and organized for the most part, no leaks, no mold, no smells, n broken and destroyed furniture, no spills or stains, scratches or dents, no noises of the loud college neighbors who would always party next door, they even had decorations in these rooms, with normal lighting This place was the greatest home she had ever seen.

Few minutes earlier

Shirou becomes little embarrased at Elizabeth's comment. "Oh, come on, this is nothing, really. Every house can be like that; it takes just a little effort." He recalls the Tohsaka manor which he often visited after 5th War ended.

Present time

As Shirou is ready to turn the key...

DING DING

A doorbell signals visitor. Surprised, and alerted, Shirou opens the door and sees Bazett.
"You're...", Shirou says as he recognizes Rider. Gazing at her as he remembers something from the past, he remains in place for few seconds.

Then he turns to the woman near her. Observing her, her figure makes him entranced for the brief moment.
"Ah, you must be Rider's Master? Archer told me about you... and your proposal. Do you want to get in?", Shirou asks politely.

Bazett couldn't help but stare at the young man.

Something about him felt extremely off to her.

The young man have the build of a fighter, the demeanor of a heroic spirit, and the seem of someone who has seen death.

But... his eyes.

They look too clear and innocent.

They... they just don't fit.

She shrugged her thoughts quickly, and replied "If the master of the house allows it."

And she got in as Rider follows in her wake.

Walking towards the living quarters, Okabe found himself constantly darting his eyes back and forth. He paid special care to make sure all the carpets were stable with no false bottoms.
Saber had noticed how tense he was acting. "There is no need to be suspicious of any enemies here, master. I have examined these rooms before, so I can guarantee it."

Yeah, I bet you have.
"Very well, let us place our lives in the hands of this unknown stranger - who might be nothing more than a brainwashed pawn for the organization, for all we know."

Stepping out into the open, Okabe finds himself almost walking into Shirou who had just been about to show them into the room. Okabe jumped, half certain the man was ready to make his move to strike him down. However, the theatrical leap from death's door and subsequent fighting pose he assumed did nothing but draw awkward stares from everyone in the room.

Coughing to regain his composure, Okabe strolled in past his new rival. "Well man, don't just stand there wasting our time!"

Elizabeth, upon sensing Saber's tension, promised her a temporary security from Safeguard. Although, Saber nodded in acknowledgement to her words, she knew Caster's reputation and ability to break rules. Not an ounce of trust can be spared to anyone associated with the witch. Moreover, Elizabeth's vow meant little: Saber will never let Caster overpower her in anyway. She did not want to offend the conjuration mage, but her protection held little value. Nevertheless, she nodded in slight gratitude--Saber was in no position do act otherwise after the battle with Berserker.

Okabe seemed to be prodding around the Emiya residence. Saber was still keeping a good enough eye on him, but she could not help shrug the feeling that her Master was somewhat... disheartened and confused. She could try and imagine his befuddlement. After all, he was new to all of this and, much more new to Saber's past. She won't be able to hold back the entire truth from him any longer. He deserved to know--

Once Bazett and Rider enter, Shirou locks the door.
"Ah, there are other guests inside, so don't be alerted", he says as he leads them into the house... and in the dining room, where everyone else should've been gathered.



"Please wait a little, I'll prepare something to eat. I hope no one will make a ruckus here", he adds, eyeing present Servants, especially looking for Caster. He then goes into the kitchen, seemingly too busy to even introduce properly to the people who don't know him, and after few minutes, the smell of the food starts spreading through the dining room.

"Try not to mess up now", Archer says to Shirou with sarcastic voice over their telepathic link they share as Master and Servant.
"Shut up, you idiot. I know how to cook", Shirou mutters in annoyance.
As he cooks, he listens to the possible conversations his guests might have.

The familiar walls, the nostalgic scents... the figure of Shirou omnipresent in the kitchen. It all shunned her back to the past, to the last war. It was all as if the 6th HGW never started.

And then Caster cut across her thoughts.

Saber was not enjoying this. There was too large a crowd here to not attract other unwanted guests. She had kept a diligent observance on the red-haired, prim woman and Rider. She hadn't forgotten their first encounter.

Elizabeth continued looking around the place. She didn't really take any offense from Sabers actions minutes ago, she understood Caster's rep. Hopefully one day or moment, she would find away to have Caster prove that she isn't as bad as everyone thinks...At least to one person. She wasn't sure what could have caused such a rep for Caster besides her ambush...But if she could forgive her for her indirect involvement...Couldn't the others? No...There was something more. Something that she didn't know about. She wouldn't let herself be deceived, nor would she doubt that actions of her servant, to Elizabeth Caster had become more of a partner, and a needed one at that. When she got the chance to be alone with Caster. She would try to get some in site on the situation. So she could understand.

As she went deep into thought she heard Shriou's voice.

"Any house can be like this; with a little bit of effort."

Despite the fact that she knew he didn't mean it in a offensive manor. She defiantly took it that way as she thought to herself. "Ashikaga worked very hard to maintain the apartment..He had to work 3 par time jobs due to his lack of an education..." She didn't want to dampen the mood and increase the tensions more then they were already. So she simply ignored it and when she heard the bell ring. She got up and turned to see who answered with an eyebrow raise. Watching the two walk in and cocked her head to the side not recognizing either one of them. She ran through the options in her head with all the servants she had, and had not seen or known about...And it was quickly narrowed down to Rider.

Noe her own defenses were raised a little bit. She had no idea what these two were like or what they were capable of? What were these two planning? Obviously there was more she didn't know. But her stomach simply growled a little bit more, which some how instantly seemed to relax her. If anything else, distracting herself on something else....Food. "Please hurry Shirou!" She whined softly as she held her stomach again. Before another thought came into her mind as she watched Saber's master...

She over heard him talk about this so called "organization" Obviosuly, she knew that Okabe had quite the energetic persona already...But she didn't know that this organization was some sort of made up fantasy in his mind...Taking the possibility of another threat pretty seriously. She decided to just go ahead and ask him out of curiosity. She called out to him quickly as she stood up.

"Erm, excuse me? Master of Saber..." She started as she got a bit closer to Okabe as she called out to him. Not wanting to ask out loud, in case rider and her master could have also been apart of a said scheme. The overseer also came into her mind when she thought of "organization." So then she asked him. 'What is this organization you are talking about?" They could be very dangerous. Especially if they could brain wash people and use them as pawns.

The fire under grew brighter and stronger as Shirou stir-fried a giant pan of noodles, the smell wafting through the kitchen doorway and into the living room where his guests sat waiting for his masterpiece.

No one cooks like I do~ Shirou sang in his mind as he tossed and stirred the voluminous noodles around. Archer was leaning by the kitchen doorway, observing his guests and occasionally sending a snide remark about his cooking skills.

Excuse me? I cook like a drunk Rin? Hmmph, just you wait...

It took him the better half of an hour to put the finishing touches to his dishes, but he and Archer soon served heaps of steaming Chinese-style stir-fried prawn noodles to the guests.

"As thanks for joining me in this meeting, please try out my cooking," Shirou said as he noticed Saber had started drooling and he shot a victorious look at Archer.
