| Master of Saber: Rintarou Okabe Location: Ryuudou Temple The reaction was far from what team Saber had hoped for, but it was what they expected, more or less. The two stood there listening to each team voice their concerns in turn. Shirou gave the most heartfelt plea for them to not go out on their own. Looking at his servant, Okabe saw a look of concern and longing overcome her while Shirou spoke. She completely empathized with what her former master was going through, and it tore her apart. Elizabeth also vehemently disproved, as did Lancer. Surprisingly, Caster seemed to accept their proposal very quickly, which was not encouraging about how she saw them. While Archer and Lancer went over a minor dispute, Okabe moved closer to where his servant had remained motionless. The remnants of Shirou's pleas were still visible on her features, which only strengthened his need to ask her. "If you do not wish to continue, we can stop here." His voice was in an undertone, in order to not attract attention. "We can join them if you want to. I'm not so foolish that I won't consider us doing something else." Saber shook her head. "No master, I wish to see this plan to the end. It was my decision as well as yours to go along with it, and I pledge myself to ensuring our victory in carrying it out." Her confirmation was enough to have Okabe speak up and interrupt the ongoing discussion between the other servants. "I appreciate all your concerns, but there is no changing courses. We are locked into our tracks, and we intend to ride the rails to our ultimate triumph. I recommend you all accept my terms as they have been laid out, or suffer the wrath of the great-- Silence bore down on the temple. Every one looked at the lab coated man. Some were trying not to laugh, others wore a face showing their utmost contempt. Saber looked on innocently - being the only one to remotely buy into the mad scientist's display, yet she was also a little disappointed that it wasn't having the intended effect on the rest of the group. Sensing the still and oppressive atmosphere, Okabe took out his cellphone and turn away from everyone as he spoke into it. "It's me. Operation Assimilate has failed. Begin Operation Dunkirk at once. Yes that's right, we require immediate air support and extraction for two. ETA is 5 minutes. El Psy Congroo." He was about to break into a laugh after putting his phone away, but by this point even Saber's patience had grown thin. "Master, please stop this. We came here for a specific reason, remember?" The mad scientist halted, and realized he was making a fool out of his servant by continuing. Collecting his composure once more, he began the statement he had been thinking over since they formed their plans. "She's right, we are here for a very specific reason: we're here to tell you not to help us. We have our own approach in mind, and it does not involve your assistance. All we ask is for you to fall back until we confront and fight Gilgamesh. If you cannot agree to our terms and insist on stopping us, this break in our alliance will turn into hostility. Instead of the worst case scenario being us dying from attacking Gilgamesh, it will be all of you having to deal with the consequences of an attack here at the temple. The latter option is guaranteed death for us and risks one of you getting killed as well, while the former may result in us living and an enemy being defeated. The choice is yours, but we are going out to face Gilgamesh right after we leave. If you do not agree to fall back, then we will have no choice but to respond. I ask all of you to please trust us, and go along with our plan for now." |

| Master of Archer: Emiya Shirou Ryuudo Temple, 3pm "I ask all of you to please trust us, and go along with our plan for now." Shirou frowned as the mad scientist finished his long speech. He despised the man for forcing him into this position, for letting Saber face Gilgamesh by herself. But Saber had pleaded that he let them go, that he was to trust her. And when she put it that way, how could he say no? How could he refuse a heartfelt plea from her? Saber...of course I trust you. I just...I just... He sighed and took a step back, his weary eyes looking deep into Saber's. "Alright, if you have to," he relented, and amidst a few gasps he continued. "Just come back safely, alright?" He then turned his eyes on Okabe, the self-proclaimed mad scientist, whom Shirou thought definitely had a few loose screws in his head. Shirou glared heatedly at him, his hands itching to do something, but he knew that Saber cared for this insane person. Just you wait, Okabe Rintarou. We'll have a long conversation about this when you get back... He turned away, moved to the side of the room and leaned against the wall, his mind in a flurry as he decided his next step. He felt Saber and Okabe leave, followed by Archer, who seemed to have something to say to Saber. He looked over the remaining members of the alliance, and spoke in a crisp voice. "We're following them." |
 |
| Servant : Lancer Ryuudou Temple " Alright I agree with him, if the Clown and Saber really insists to go out and face Gilgamesh on their own then let them be " Again Lancer mocks Okabe "But on one condition " "Let me go with you and observe and watch Gilgamesh" "Of course I'll just watch, no interference will be coming from me." "Even if things not turn out the way you two expected, I'll just simply watch the battle. Don't go crying for help if you guys are on the losing end though" "No matter what the situation, I'll just simply watch " |
 |
| Master of Saber: Rintarou Okabe Location: Ryuudou Temple Okabe wasn't sure how to answer. Fortunately, it was Saber who replied. "That will not do, Lancer. You make it sound like you can observe without altering the situation, that is not the case. The forest is encapsulated with a boundary field that will alert Gilgamesh and everyone at the castle that we're making our way to them. Your intentions mean little to what an enemy thinks and how they act. There are no observers in this, Lancer. There are those who go to fight, and there are those who will not go and not fight. I am sure there are servants here who have alternate ways of gathering information without needing to physically be on the battlefield." Saber turned to her side, and looked to assume an aggressive pose. "One more thing, Lancer. I will not allow you to insult my master in my presence. You are indeed powerful, but I reckon I can deal you enough damage to the point that the rest of the servants here will not pass up an opportunity to finish the job." |

| Servant : Lancer Ryuudou Temple "Oh??!!Wanna go at it Saber ??" Lancer say as Saber changes into an agggressive pose * Lancer reacts to this by bringing out his spear once again * |
|
| Master of Saber: Rintarou Okabe Location: Ryuudou Temple "Saber, stop!" Okabe jumped in front of his servant with a look of panic. "We can't afford a fight here. Even if you do manage to survive, Gilgamesh will kill you when we meet. We must stay at full strength." He looked appealingly into her eyes, but the King of Knights kept her gaze fixated on Lancer. It wasn't until a few moments later that she relaxed her stand and turned to her master. "As you wish. I shall not endanger our lives over something so trivial. You better hope we don't succeed, Lancer, because we'll be ready to deal with you after." Okabe sighed with relief, unable to believe that for once he was the reasonable one talking Saber down. Still, the concern she showed over protecting his dignity made him smile, and was enough on its own to render any insult from Lancer ineffective. |

| Servant : Lancer Ryuudou Temple " That's the way I Like it Saber !" " My apologies, I was just testing you to see your fighting spirit" "It seems like you're very well ready . And it doesn't look like you're going there blind " "Go ahead then you two.. Do as you like. I won't stop you now " Lancer takes away his bluff and wishes them the best of luck |
|
| Master of Caster: Elizabeth Reed Location: Ryuudou Temple "Well I'm sure Saber wouldn't try to do it if she wasn't sure she could win. If she and her master are so adamant, maybe we should trust them here." Elizabeth turned to look at Caster after that comment and raised an eyebrow. "Wai-Wha? Caster? You can't be serious?!" She started seeming to be flabbergasted at Casters response. To be honest, it wasn't as much of the fact of whether they thought they were going to die or not. It was a matter of her un quenchable blood lust for Kotomine's head. But she wasn't going to say that. "Look, I don't care who attacks Gilgamesh as long as my Master survives benefits from it in the end, but there's one thing you're overlooking: that little overseer girl. Apparently, she has Berserker for a Servant and, combined with her power she displayed last night, she could be even bigger threat than King of Heroes." Elizabeth nodded at what Archer had to say...Which made her think for a moment. If they had really entrusted this situation to Saber and her master. And they by some miracle ended up succeeding. Perhaps they could kill two birds with one stone. Having everyone else go for the overseer. Elizabeth had no doubt that Caren was going to try to kill her and Caster. Especially now that her contract is broken. It was honestly quite horrifying to think about. And if she could rally everyone else to help kill Caren. This would be more then great for her. In fact, the situation might have even just improved.. Even...Even if it meant not being able to avenge Ashikaga's death....But to win this game and make his sacrifice not in vain...It was probably a compromise she was going to have to come to terms with. Which made her exhale deeply. Closing her eyes a minute before opening them again and answering Lancers comment. "Yes, in fact. Berserker only has been reduced to 6 lifes. If Caren's interest is to see to it that Gilgamesh is out of her way. Perhaps we can use that opportunity to crush her while Sabers master and Saber confront Gilgamesh head on. We could kill two birds with one stone and we would probably be eliminating two of our greatest opponents as of late. But of course, no one should be taking on Caren alone. That would be something that the rest of do....Perhaps it is better for us to let Sabers master and saber go through with this after all. Archer is right, we can worry about another big target who could be breathing down are necks. very soon." |
| Servant: Archer Ryuudoe Temple, around 2 PM "True, Archer, that overseer girl might even defend Giligamesh with her Berserker after sensing that it wouldn't be fair for Gilgamesh", Lancer says to him "Hrmph. Not gonna happen", Archer responds with smuggish voice. "That girl wants to see Team Gilgamesh out even more than we want. And being an overseer, she'll definitely be wary of us." On Team Saber's comments, Archer sighs in exasperation. "Look, Saber... with that thing now in your possession, you probably have the chance of defeating Gilgamesh on your own. But...", he looks straight in Saber's eyes, "...what about your Master? You can't both deal with Gilgamesh and protect him." |

| Master of Saber: Rintarou Okabe Location: Ryuudou Temple WARNING: LONG POST. READER DISCRETION IS ADVISED Having satisfied everyone there as best he could not to follow them, Okabe and Saber soon began to leave. He had wondered if she still wanted to talk to Archer, but the King of Knight's solemn expression as they headed out showed him that she wasn't interested any more. "Saber." Shirou called out to them just as they were about to leave his sight. Still bitter over agreeing to their plan, Shirou had watched them slowly walk away before finally calling out in spite of himself. "Go if you really have to, but stop by my shed on the way. You'll find something there you might like." Slightly confused, the two finished making their way to the exit and left the temple. Sometime later, they arrived at the Emiya house, and made their way to the shed. The place was dusty and dark, which made Okabe even more on edge than usual. Feeling the onset of a possible attack, he moved closer to Saber knowing full well that she was his best protection. She noticed him leaning closer, and was puzzled briefly over the way he was acting. "Master, please do not stand so close. Your body touching mine makes me uncomfortable." Okabe recoiled at the words, then composed himself and fired back. "Well pardon me, Your Highness. Do you think I'm trying to make a pass at you here? We're on our way to fight for our lives, and we make a brief stop at an old shack fitted for a serial killer. Yes yes, clearly now is the best moment for me to confess my undying love for you." His sarcasm was palpable, yet Saber gave a small smirk while listening, and actually started chuckling by the time he finished. Okabe tilted his head when he noticed her reaction, before he finally understood she was joking. He put his hands in his lab coat pocket and looked away - a little embarrassed that he had so easily done what she'd expected. Saber still wore a slight smile as they began examining their surroundings. Her eyes finally rested on a sheet covering a large object to the side of the room. She did not remember seeing something of that size in the shack during any previous war, so she concluded that must be what Shirou was talking about. Okabe seemed to guess as much by seeing her fixed gaze, so the mad scientist walked over and pulled the sheet off. Underneath was revealed to be a Yamaha motorcycle - in surprisingly good condition, considering it's age. Saber's eyes sparkled, and she was struck with a pang of nostalgia. Okabe naturally inquired, and she explained that she had used this bike in a previous Holy Grail War. "I just don't understand where Shirou found it. I thought it was lost a long time ago." Saber put her closed hand to her chest, overcome with gratitude. They both helped manoeuvre the bike out of the shed and rolled it to the front of the house. "Using this, we should be able to reach the forest much quicker." Okabe mentioned while checking its condition. "Do you think we'll be able to go straight to the castle with this?" Saber shook her head. "That would not work, master. The terrain would prevent us, as well as any traps that might be set. It is inadvisable." Saber walked to the front of the bike which her master was holding up. With a small smile at him, she closed her eyes and held her arms at her side. The next moment, she was engulfed by light, but was released a second later. Saber was now in a full black suit, with matching tie and gloves. Her hair had also changed into a ponytail tied at the back. Okabe was stunned at her new look; much shaper than before. Saber looked up at her master, who was taken aback by her new appearance. "Is something wrong with this?" "No, n-no of course not. It's functional if nothing else, I suppose." In truth, Okabe was thinking that her appearance was one lab coat away from perfection, but he didn't say anything. 7:50 PM The servant assumed the role of the driver, while her master was the passenger. They drove across town, an within a short time they had reached the entrance to the forest. Okabe, who was not familiar with motorcycles, was pushed to the edge of sanity by Saber's 'efficient' driving style. Needless to say, he was very glad when they finally arrived. Catching his breath, he began walking side by side with his servant as they both entered the forest. Scarcely a few moments later, Saber stopped and her movements gave all signs of preparing for danger. "Master, don't walk any further. There is a servant in the area." Okabe stopped breathing for a minute, and for a short time only the wild sounds of the forest filled the air. Eventually, a mass of energy began materializing at the entrance the the forest which they had just passed. The figure soon solidified to form the servant Berserker. Rather than causing a torrent of fear, an uneasy relief set in on the former king and mad scientist. "Good, Caren got our message." Okabe was still unnerved by the sight, but he was finally able to let out a long sigh when Berserker nodded and turn his back to them - overlooking the entire entrance before de-materializing. "Well Saber, are you ready to head into the forest?" He asked, with some uncertainty. "Of course. I shall be at your side and bring you victory, no matter how dire the situation." He could have left it there, but he needed to ask one more time. "What if we can't win?" "I will not consider such talk from my master." She snapped back. "I have but a single focus: to ensure we prevail. Any other worries would only takes away from my effort towards that one goal." Okabe accepted the answer, even if he couldn't understand why it didn't satisfy his curiosity. She had answered as his servant, as a King, and as warrior - but that's not who he wanted to hear from. He didn't know it at the time, but Okabe wanted to hear her answer as a person. At the present moment though, her resolute reply was at least enough to strengthen his will. The determination that caused him to chase world line after world line trying to rescue his loved ones had returned We will not lose. I won't let you lose, Saber. No matter what, I'll make sure you don't die. Those were his last thoughts as they both stepped across the boundary field. |

| Kotomine Kirei Location: Castle Time: 8:02pm "It appears that two mongrels have entered the forest. Rejoice, Kirei and the Emperor of Shrimps, for the next act of this play is at hand." Upon hearing these words, Kirei set down his glass of wine and stood up. "You are correct, one master and one servant have just entered the forest." Kirei held his hands behind his back. "I will go check it out. Whatever happens, both you and the Emperor of Shrimps must stay here until it is finished. No matter what happens, not matter how things turn out, please do not disturb my plans until they have been carried out." After securing both of their agreements to his terms, Kirei left the castle. Looking into the night's sky, he smiled, knowing he was about to do something he'd wanted to do for some time: Kirei began jogging into the forest. |

| Servant: Archer Ryuudou Temple, around 2:30 PM Archer sighs as Saber and Okabe leave. Archer sighs out and, after few minutes gets up, following after them. "Well, I'll leave you here; my stupid Master can take care of any further arrangements", Archer says as he leaves out. "Where are you going, Archer?", Shirou asks him telepathically. "Back to Tohsaka residence... I still didn't recovered my mana completely. And I might require every bit of it... if I'm going to comfront Gilgamesh. I doubt Saber will be able to do it alone", Archer responds him then, as he dematerializes, leaves the Ryuudou Temple. Einzbern forest, a bit before 8 PM Archer has been watching the road leading to the forest for a while now, having a general idea that Saber might attack when the night falls. He almost got bored of it... until he finally spotted black Yamaha motorbike and two peculiar people on it: unmistakable lab coat and... Saber in a black suit. Archer couldn't help but have his heart jump at the sight of her. As motorbike comes closer, Archer retreats a little so that his presence isn't easily found. He watches as the two of them converse a bit after getting off the motorcycle... and then disappear into the forest. "So, the games begin...", Archer mutters to himself as he follows them in from the safe distance. |

| Master of Archer: Emiya Shirou Near Einzbern Forest, 7.40pm Shirou really wanted to believe in Saber. He owed the trust they built in each other that much. In the end, however, Shirou couldn't help but follow his heart. So here he stood, on the road next to the Einzbern Forest, his heart beating erratically as he thought of his ex-Servant. You can't match him, Saber. We both know that. I don't know why you chose to fight him alone...but I won't let you. I won't let you be denied happiness again. He nodded to himself, and stepped off the tarmac. He strode towards the tall line of trees that marked the edge of Einzbern territory, remembering how he had once walked into the forest there with Rin, and how it had ended in tragedy. It won't end like that this time. This time Gilgamesh, I'll pluck that heart of yours right out of your chest. You'll pay... Shirou tightened his fists as he remembered what Gilgamesh had done. As he took another step towards the forest, he was knocked out of his thoughts by a very ominous aura. It was a familiar feeling that made him tense, but it lacked...bloodthirst. It feels like Heracles...but more controlled...? And then the black giant materialised. There was no killing intent, no madness, no bloodthirst. But even so, Shirou stood frozen, five metres away from death incarnate as it looked back at him with dispassionate eyes. Why is he here? What's going on? Saber, what have you done? |
|
| Kotomine Kirei Location: Castle Forest Time: 9:40pm After his extended jog, Kirei felt 10 years younger. The moonless night proved ideal conditions for Kirei to move without being seen. Before long he was able to spot master and servant from an invisible vantage point. The small woman he recognized as Saber, and he remembered the man in the lab coat. Kirei made a quick observation of the wind speed, and took out 3 small red hilts from his frock. In a single swift motion, he aimed his black keys and threw them. The blades whizzed through the air towards the target. Kirei had not aimed for Saber however, but instead at her master; right for his head. |

| Servant: Saber Location: Castle Forest Time: 9.40 pm "What if we can't win?" She'd assured him that there was no such possibility. She knew, however, that there was every such possibility. She was prepared. Saber was walking into a cave that had death waiting at the other end. She was taking Okabe with herself and she knew the man was as uneducated on the adversaries that they were about to face next, as he was on the identity of the Holy Grail War. Saber knew Gilgamesh and his pride enough to secure the chance that he will not make the first move without announcing his glorious presence or dispelling a zealously crafted speech regarding his fine self and treasury. She decided that Okabe was best instructed on what he can expect from the upcoming event. He needed to know what these people were capable of; he'd already witnessed the unfolding of the attack on Berserker, but he had little knowledge of the clamoring past between herself and the King of Heroes. She had always conveniently omitted that detail out. She told him. Okabe sat cross-legged, somewhat stunned, for a while; one hand supporting his chin and the other propped on his knee. And then suddenly, he shot up from the ground. "You... you mean you almost became the wife of that walking-and-talking blonde cat? "Er.. no, Master. Well, yes, that too. But, more importantly, he almost killed me." "How dare he try to put a ring on my--" Saber heard them before she noticed the shine of the blades, whirring through the bushes, invisible, right at her Master.  She deflected them, sword out mere fractions of seconds before Okabe Rintarou was shredded from within. Saber knew that attack well. Very well, indeed. "Kotomine Kirei!" she called out in vehemence. "Show yourself!" |

 |
| Master of Saber: Rintarou Okabe Location: Castle forest Okabe knew that Saber had a long history in past wars, but he never thought the very servant they were attacking had proposed marriage to her. The news shocked him, and the brutal way which Gilgamesh had tried to force his will on her made him angry. We must defeat him This was what he thought when suddenly Saber had disappeared in front of him. She had made what looked to be a quick jerk movement, and then she was gone from his vision. He just managed to whirl his head around to see her sword drawn out, and had just executed a slash of her blade - redirecting what looked like huge knives away from them. Okabe was speechless, and could only watch the spectacular and awe inspiring display from his servant. "s-s-so the organization really does have eyes everywhere." He could hardly believe his enemies had made a sneak attack in such a secluded spot. It made perfect sense - No witnesses, and no one to call for help. Before he could look for a target to throw his phone at and run away, Saber called out an unknown name - and Okabe was clueless once more. |

| Kotomine Kirei Location: Castle Forest Time: 9:40pm "Kotomine Kirei!" she called out in vehemence. "Show yourself!" The words he heard was enough to tell him that the attack had not landed. Kirei walked out from his hiding place, and looked at them with a smirk. "I'm afraid the results are very grave, indeed. I should've known you would be able to deflect my keys, Saber. This is a disastrous miscalculation on my part. My only real chance to defeat you was by a surprise attack, but now that has failed and I am without refuge." The distance between them was about 20 meters. Kirei's grin grew bigger. "The result is now unavoidable. There is nothing for me to do." He then Held his arms out, in an almost welcoming fashion. Anyone who didn't know what was going on would think he was asking for a hug, or for God's salvation. "Go ahead Saber, strike me down. If you do not, I will attack again." |

| Emperor Shrimpy Location: Castle Forest 'Well Well, what's happening here?' I look and see stuff happening, and i keep observing. some time later 9:40pm 'Well, time to join the fun, can't let Sensei die, after all' 'Time Alter: Double Accel' I go and hold the crazy guy in white cloak hostage. ''Well Well, if isn't Okarin and My King's Lovely Maiden. How are you doing? Saber, if you know what's good for you and your Master, leave, or you ALL WILL DIE HERE'' |
| Servant: Saber Location: Castle Forest Time: 9.40 pm Saber held her sword pointed at the priest, shielding Okabe behind her. "Go ahead Saber, strike me down. If you do not, I will attack again." What? For a very minute moment, Saber plunged into confusion. He was asking for death? She couldn't fathom a single reason for him to do that. It seemed he intended to force her to attack him. Why? Why would Kotomine Kirei, the bane of Kiritsugu, ask her for his end? He wouldn't. It had to be nothing but a feint. As soon as this thought crossed her mind, she felt another intrusion in their direct vicinity, and the next second saw the apparition of the Master of Gilgamesh, Emperor Shrimp. He stood next to Okabe, holding a weapon against him. "Saber, if you know what's good for you and your Master, leave, or you ALL WILL DIE HERE" Saber tightened her grip on Excalibur as a fresh wave of worry hit her insides. She was right. They had her Master hostage. This could be the end of everything. The end of everything she had ever worked for, but more than that, it could be the end of Okabe, who was mercilessly shunned into this world of blood by a Fate of cruel humor. Saber glanced from the Priest to the Emperor, immobile. She then turned towards the Master of Gilgamesh. "We only came here to speak with your Servant," she spoke, her voice dry. "Allow me to do that. I will send my Master back, since he has nothing to do with it, and I will let you both go." Saber could see the retort to this sentiment bubbling in the Mad Scientist's throat, but he didn't answer for fear of losing his life in the moment that came following his words. Saber had to handle this situation quickly, and wisely. |
|
| Servant: Archer Einzbern Forest, 9:40 pm Archer has been tailing Saber and Okabe from the safe distance, keeping in sight the both of them while being careful that he's not detected as well... which is hard, considering that, apart form him, at least 2 other Servants are in the same forest. Suddenly... Archer sensed Shirou's discomfort. After Shirou told him that he met Berserker, Archer telepathically immediately responds: "Do not engage him, Master; if you're in danger, use Command Spell to get me to you immediately. Stay away from him as much as possible." He ended up the conversation right to hear the 3 short sounds of metal clashing with metal. Looking at the direction of the sounds, he notices Kotomine emerging from the woods... and after short conversation, another person he remembers from Berserker ambush: Gilgamesh' Master, who grabs Okabe and keeps him hostage... with a gun. 'It seems I need to intervene sooner as I expected', Archer thinks and projects his trusted bow and a simple sword he transforms into the arrow, not caring if Saber detects him. Nocking it on his left arm, he takes a careful aim - not at Gil's Master directly, but at his gun and hand holding it, ready to fire it if it truly becomes necessary to save Okabe's life. |

| Master of Caster: Elizabeth Reed Location Ryuudou Temple Elizabeth gritted her teeth as she stood there clenching her fists tightly as she watched everyone leave. Could she really trust them to carry out such a task? This mad scientist and Saber? No. That wasn't it. It was a feeling of deep regret, of sorrow. The regret of not having to kill Kirei Kotomine with her own hands...She had to kill him. Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill. Those were the only thoughts that came to her mind when she thought of Kirei. She didn't want to talk to him, reason with him or anything. She needed blood. The blood of that man. It had to be her, she had to get her revenge. It was the second most important reason for her coming into her war. Why she had hung her head in shame to submit to that wicked priestess. Why she had done everything she had done up until this point. She wanted to make sure that it was her and Caster who crushed that mans skull...Such a thought would have never have gotten in her head before this war. She cursed under her breath as she came to such a conclusion and face palmed herself. What am I even doing? She asked herself before she blinked once and began to breathe normally again. Did she trust her allies in this situation? Or was she to charge in with full bloody vengeance. She sighed and turned to look up at Caster and exhaled deeply. "Once we summon the dragon does it have any sort of time limit? Or constraints?" She asked as she waited there for a response. She was still wondering whether it was a good idea or not. But she came to a conclusion while waiting for her servants answer and un balled her fists. "We have to go there. At this point, it is the best chance we have to eliminate Kotomine while he is already being attacked. To be overwhelmed. If we slip up and miss our chance we could never get another chance to kill him..And I can simply not let that be. For Ashikaga's sake. I must be the one. I know it is selfish. But I cannot think rationally unless the deed is done by my hands." |
| Kotomine Kirei Location: Castle Forest Time: 9:45pm Kotomine found himself endeared to his former student for displaying such determination. This did not change the fact that he had gone against his orders. "I told you to stay at the castle, Emperor of Shrimps. I wish you had listened to me." "I won't let you die, Sensei. We're going to get out of this together, you're not throwing your life away." "My life is over here whether I get out of this or not. Why do you think I have come here while leaving all of you behind? I have made my decision, and I have chosen who I want to carry out that decision." Kirei gave a quick glance in Saber's direction before continuing, "I am sorry to do this, but I cannot allow you to harm her master. Doing so will forfeit your life as well as mine, and I need someone to stay in this war to continue spreading true yuetsu." Kirei turned back to Saber. "If you get your master back, will you spare my student? You may do what you wish to his servant if that's why you're here, but allow him to live." Kirei already knew Saber's nature, so it was no surprise when she gave a slight nod of agreement. He knew he could trust King Arthur's word. "I apologize again, Emperor of Shrimps, and I thank you for always being there. Goodbye....friend." Kirei reckoned that if this was the end for him, he'd want to do at least one act of genuine kindness. He took a deep breathe, and then went for it. He reach into his frock and pulled out 5 black keys: 3 in his right hand, 2 his left. By the times the blades had formed from his prana, he was already bounding forward with all the strength and speed he could muster. At this point, he swung the two keys in his left hand and threw them. At first it looked like the projectiles were heading for Okabe once more, but in reality they were aimed at his student. More specifically, at the arm which held the weapon. The Emperor gave a cry of pain as blades pierced his skin. Thankfully, the pain caused him to loose grip on his weapon before it was used accidentally, and it fell to the ground. All this took place in fractions of seconds. During these same moments Kirei continued charging, but now at Saber. He raised his right arm defiantly above his head. Now only a few feet from her, he swung all 3 black keys down at Saber with all his might. The whole sequence was scarcely a few seconds in real time. Even with Kirei going at full speed, he knew this attack would not defeat Saber. She was a master swordswoman, and he had entered into her stronghold: close quarters combat. Bringing his right hand down for the final strike, something very close to a warm smile broke out on his face. He done what he wanted, and he saved his student. In the brief moments before death, Kirei had finally discovered the greatest yuetsu that he had been denied his whole life. He closed his eyes, and waited for the killing blow to arrive. |

| Servant : Lancer Mira Nyanko Residence After some time Lancer left Ryuudou Temple and arrived at his master's base " Hey Master, as I've told you earlier. Saber's gonna fight somebody called Gilgamesh. She say's she'll only be going there alone with her master. " "But I believe the others can't just stand by still and would probably join in too. " "I'm curious at what's happening, aren't you too? Master? " "What about I go there and watch while your little familiar bird follows me and will report to you at the same time?" *Lancer's master then agrees and summons a white bird* Alright I shall go now Master, I'll come back here soon * Lancer then takes his master's motorcycle and speeds towards the forest * With my riding skills, this would only take a mere few minutes *As Lancer arrives at the scene , he jumps on top of a tall branch and watches as the events unfold below *  |

| Overseeer: Caren Hortensia Location: Shinto, 9:45 PM "Hmm, things are going really conveniently for me, aren't they?" Caren remarks, having left the Church a while back, at the same time looking at an invisible glass pane floating right next to her. Having observed the alliance that had been formed in the Ryuudou Temple back in the afternoon, an assault on the Einzbern Castle was currently being enacted by Saber and that unknown mad scientist...speaking of whom, there was something about him that made him completely suspicious. She'd dismissed the peculiar event earlier as nothing but a mere malfunction of her Holy Scripture, but how would such a holy artifact malfunction in such a specific manner anyway? Location: Future Gadget Lab Shirou's face straightened, and his eyes began to focus. "What's that?" "Her food costs." Okabe said. "Get a job." Archer immediately, and mercilessly, shots at Okabe, having seen the state of FGL when he entered earlier. Okabe is visibly taken aback by Archer's words. While Shirou says something in the background, the mad scientist ponders for a while, then jumps over to a table holding kitchen appliances. He begins tampering with a pair of headphones and a microwave. "What are you doing, master?" Saber asks in blank amazement. "Nothing at all, I'll be right with you." Having put a pair of headphones on, he enters a value into the microwave and presses start. Electricity begins spraying from the door-less microwave, and the last thing Okabe sees is the group in the living room jumping to their feet, reacting in response to the statics--- Location: Future Gadget Lab Shirou's face straightened, and his eyes began to focus. "What's that?" Okabe sat down and glanced at the far side of the room before answering. "Her food costs." "Get a--" "Job?" Archer began speaking, but Okabe suddenly cut him. "No, I already have a job as a mad scientist and protecting the world from an invisible tyranny that's bearing down on us." "Instead of thinking of my employment," Okabe grins. "Why don't you learn to love yourself more?" What had transpired back then? Why did time within Fuyuki roll back? As it was an event that took place within the reality marble Raviel, it was tracked and recorded, but even now she couldn't figure it out...no. It wasn't that she couldn't figure it out, but that she didn't want to accept the apparent truth - that this was an act of Fifth Magic. Or rather, an act of science that had the capacity to reduce Fifth Magic to actual, logical reality. However, whilst she is pondering this, continuing to walk down the streets, an even more unexpected event happens, causing her to gasp on instinct. "Father---" For the first time, she voices that word. It lasts only an instant. Even if she planned on interfering herself, she couldn't have done anything. No, to begin with, hadn't she been supporting Team Saber in their quest to do just that, alongside dealing with that ridiculous King of Heroes? Master? Berserker asks. Berserker... Her thoughts drift off for a bit, and just the tiniest tingle of emotion appears at the back of her mind - but she waves it off immediately after. The wild card has been eliminated. Now, proceed just as I ordered. Do not let anyone apart from Team Saber approach the Einzbern Castle. I'm sure they wish to be helpful, but they will only interfere in the climactic battle to come. Understood, Master. And with that, Caren focuses on the present, having finally arrived at the place she'd been heading to. Casually, she knocks on the door, with a dull look on her face. "Hello, Mira Nyanko? My name is Caren Hortensia, the Overseer of this war and I wish to speak with you...as the Master of Lancer, of course." --- Servant: Berserker Location: Castle Forest, 9:45 PM Berserker stands in front of the Master called Shirou Emiya - he is rather small in terms of size, but the strength and will that he is radiating from deep inside his heart is truly undeniable. However, it would still take time for him to reach his full potential. Should they fight now, at this distance, Berserker would win ten times out of ten. But instead, the hulking mad warrior merely stands by, letting time pass between them for a total of two hours before suddenly making a movement, as though responding to an event that had just happened far off into the distance. "Call ARCHER back... He will CEASE his observation, for SABER must face the KING OF HEROES alone." Berserker said in a deep voice, abruptly assuming a menacing position with his axe-sword pointed towards Shirou. "If you do not, then YOU will DIE here." Then, as though having just sensed a fly, the mad warrior suddenly shot towards a tree, ripped it off like it was paper, and thrust it into the distance - like an arrow, it shot directly towards Lancer, who had attempted to cross past his watch. |

| Master of Archer: Emiya Shirou Near Einzbern Forest, 9.45pm For two hours, Shirou stood in front of the black Servant, his muscles tense and his eyes unblinking as he awaited any move. He knew that he had no way of winning against Heracles, as he lacked the superhuman speed his future counterpart had. He could, at best, take off two lives from God Hand's stock of twelve, and that would result in him becoming a red splatter on the grassy field. And so he waited for a chance to dash past Berserker. And waited. And waited. And at precisely two hours and five minutes into their deadlock, Berserker moved. His axe-sword, which had been pointing at the ground, was now in between the two, its sharp edge pointing at Shirou menacingly. He said in a deep voice, "Call ARCHER back... He will CEASE his observation, for SABER must face the KING OF HEROES alone. If you do not, then YOU will DIE here." Shirou's eyes narrowed as he took his own stance. Trace on. I am the bone of my sword. Steel is my body and fire is my blood. The words reverberated in his mind as he called forth Gram, the sword of the sun, in his left hand and a sleek black bow in his other hand. He estimated that Berserker would reach him in one and a half seconds, assuming he leapt back immediately. He could notch his blade and shoot in one second. His next projection, Caliburn, would take him five seconds. Damnit, that's too slow. I can't win without Archer... And just as he was about to call Archer, Berserker struck. But strangely enough, even as Shirou notched Gram onto his bow instinctively, Berserker wasn't heading towards him. The black giant shot towards a tree, uprooted it with one mighty hand, and hurled it like it was a pebble, sending it flying towards the top of a tall tree in the distance. Shirou gulped and took the chance to contact Archer. Archer, get over here now. I'm facing Berserker. Yeah, that Berserker. And he looks pissed. |
|
| Servant : Lancer Forest Just a few seconds has gone by when Lancer started sitting at a branch of a tree observing the events * The tree Lancer was standing on was suddenly cut into half, this caused Lancer to drop on the ground * *Lancer runs toward to the direction of the powerful attack * There he runs across Emiya Shirou and a huge mass of muscle with long wavy hair As Emiya Shirou was just standing there, Lancer now understood the situation they're in, he knew that Berserker was there to guard the forest from any uninvited guests. "So this is the Divine Hero Heracles huh, won't be too bad if I get to have a free taste of him " Lancer enters battle position and asks Shirou. "Well? Where's your Archer? Don't tell me he's already been taken out hehe " Master : Mira Nyanko Mira Nyanko Residence Overseer???!!!! Mira Nyanko speaks with surpirse. How could this young girl possibly be an overseer Triggered by suspicion. Mira Nyanko raises her right hand and prepares to use her command seal |

| Servant: Archer Einzbern forest, 9:45 PM Archer has been silently watching as the events transpire... in the most unusual way. As two of the Keys pierce Emperor Shrimp's hand, Archer lowers his bow and arrow. However, there wasn't enough time to calmly observe. "Archer, get over here now. I'm facing Berserker. Yeah, that Berserker. And he looks pissed", Shirou calls him back, causing Archer to click his tongue and mutter: 'That idiot, what did he get himself into...' Putting priority on Shirou, he leaves Team Saber and rushes as fast as possible to Shirou. Once he finally comes to him, he sees the problem they're in: Lancer and Berserker standing in their combat stances, facing each other, and his Master standing and observing from a little farther away. "Well, well, what do we have here", Archer can't help but speak with smug voice. "Isn't that Berserker, as docile as a puppy? And facing Lancer, of all Servants." Archer then slowly comes to Shirou and mutters very quietly so that only Shirou can hear him: "If you want, go to the castle; Saber's Master probably won't survive the encounter with Gilgamesh without outside help." Having muttered that, he turns again to the two Servants: "Well, Lancer, here's your chance. I won't interfere in your fight if you attack Berserker, so feel free to go all out. No, you'll have to go all out." |

| Servant: Caster Caster observes Elizabeth and responds. "As long as I have enough mana to maintain it, which I should have, there shouldn't be any problem. However, what after you're done with that priest? Are you going to give up on the grail? The only chance to save the person you lost?" |
Stev said: ayy lmao |
| Master of Caster: Elizabeth Reed Location: Ryuudou Temple Elizabeth shook closed her eyes for a moment and then slowly shook her head. "No Medea you don't understand my intent. When I made that contract with Caren. She offered me the chance to revive him. Me and him could have lived together again and I would be able to undo all the wrong that I have done to him. But I can not reverse what had been done. No one who dies can come back to life. Whatever happened there would be a cruel fate to back it up. I know there will be, the Ashikaga I knew and loved would have been gone. A hollow shell of his former grace." She blinked and turned to face Caster. "But bringing him back to life is not why I want to win the grail. As I have already told you. I want to win this war to end all grail wars. I am doing this to also avenge him. To end the war that took his life. But also so that no other mage will be brought into such a horrible, horrible war like this. So that they will not have to suffer such a loss as I have. Ashikaga wanted to win the grail so that he could save his unborn child who would never be able to share the world with him. If I were to do that, then there would be a chance growing up as a mage that he would be caught in this grail. I cannot allow that to happen." She finished with a sigh and put her hands together rubbing them a little bit. "Well, we should hurry now. Time is of the essence! If you think we have enough mana for it! Lets get to work. I have a feeling Kotomine is already about to meet his end. We have to destroy him! Together Medea we will make him repent!" |

| Master of Archer: Emiya Shirou Near Einzbern Forest, 9.45pm If you want, go to the castle; Saber's Master probably won't survive the encounter with Gilgamesh without outside help. Shirou's legs pulsed with bright blue streaks as he sprinted into the forest. His body reinforcement technique could not match Rin's, but even with such an amateurish use of it, his speed had tripled and the three Servants behind him were soon out of view. Dismissing Gram and the bow, he traced Kanshou and Bakuya, the twin blades a welcoming familiarity in the heated situation he found himself in. Archer, he knew, was right. Saber could not match Gilgamesh in a fight, even if she did have Avalon. She had brought the scientist along, and in a fight where every move counted, she would be outplayed completely by Gilgamesh. She would prioritise his safety above all, and he could see how such an attachment to her Master would easily lead to her downfall. He dashed past more trees, his legs a blue blur of motion, his heart hammering not so much due to his exertions but his fear of what could have already happened. 9.46pm Shirou reached a clearing, where a dilapidated ruin stood. And next to it, in a bizzare stand-off of sorts, were Saber, Kirei, Gilgamesh's Master and Okabe. The first thing he noticed was how Gilgamesh's Master was screaming in pain, his arms stabbed by Black Keys while a curved (shrimp-like, Shirou noted) sword and Okabe lay on the grass next to him, the latter crawling away on all fours with a determined face. The next thing he noticed was Kirei, and how he was impaled on Saber's golden sword. A pool of black formed beneath him as his life drained out of him, his muscles spasming erratically as his reincarnated body tried and failed to repair itself. Saber looked almost surprised, but there was a grim edge to her expression nonetheless. Kirei coughed, and a mess of black drooled out of his mouth. And that was when Shirou noticed it. Kirei was smiling. Shirou grimaced as he processed this, his mortal enemy seemingly finding the pleasure he sought for his entire life in his very last seconds. Shaking that thought aside, Shirou silently climbed up a nearby tree and waited upon a branch, watching the scene unfold beneath him. Gilgamesh had not appeared yet, and until then, he would let Saber carry on with her plan. I don't know what happened, what's going on, and what will happen, but at least Kirei's out of the picture...This Master of Gilgamesh though...Tch, I have to wait here, or else I'll lose my chance to attack Gilgamesh later... Archer, Shirou notified his Servant. I'm at Saber's now. I'll wait until Gilgamesh starts attacking to make my move. Take down Berserker with Lancer if you really need to, but if you can find a way to resolve things peacefully, do so. With that, he could now do some preparations... I am the bone of my sword... |
|
| Overseer: Caren Location: Nyanko Residence "Oh, suspicious of me?" The priestess asks casually, noting her Command Seals. "Don't be. I don't plan on doing anything bad to you. I simply wish to have a small chat is all." Without having gotten any permission, she proceeds to walk into the house, nonchalantly crossing past Mira before spotting a sofa and sitting on it like it was her own. "As the Overseer, it's my duty to confirm the wills of everyone currently participating in this war, and that includes you, alongside your Servant Lancer. Karna, eh? Truly, without doubt, the Servant that you have summoned is a remarkable one. Surprisingly so in fact. I would never have expected a woman such as yourself to have drawn out such a Heroic Spirit." Caren lets out a bored yawn for a moment, briefly glancing at an invisible glass pane floating above her - showing her that things were beginning to become a little troublesome in the Einzbern Forest. Should worse come to worse, she may have to aid Berserker by threatening Mira in a rather impolite manner, forcing her to bring Lancer here. No, that wasn't the worst part. Rather, should it come to be that Gilgamesh beats Saber, then that would leave her only one alternative as the Overseer. "Well then. There's only one reason why I came here, and we may as well get it over with... Mira Nyanko, what are you fighting for?" ~ ~ ~ Servant: Berserker Location: Einzbern Forest Berserker closely watches as the boy called Shirou leaves, but ultimately decides that it's not worth starting a fight over a weakling such as him. Then he turns his attention to Lancer and Archer, who are both in his presence. "SABER must face the KING OF THE WORLD alone. This is for the BEST, for INTERFERING may break HER FOCUS and cause her to LOSE. Only through his ARROGANCE can she truly attain victory. He is the GREATEST THREAT - these are the words of my MASTER." His speech is loud and deep, yet also expresses control, sentience - signifying that he is not yet under Mad Enhancement. However, even then, the amount of power that he is exuding is practically unbelievable. It seems that he is perfectly confident in taking on both Servants at once if need be. "Thus, FELLOW HEROES, I must ask you to turn back NOW... It is REGRETTABLE, but if you do not, then you will both DIE HERE. Now then, ARCHER, LANCER... WHAT ARE YOUR ANSWERS?" |
|
| Servant: Archer Einzbern forest, around 10 PM Archer listens to the ramblings of the almost-mad warrior, smirk on his face never leaving. "Ooh? How admirable... Master wanting to secure a noble fight to the enemy Servant. Except that your petite Master, who loves to spy upon the other teams...", Archer starts responding, using the fact that Elizabeth revealed Caren being Berserker's Master, "...should've already know that Saber can't defeat Gilgamesh. Especially if her useless Master is at the site of fight as well, who needs to stay safe and alive so that she can focus on the task in front of her. So...", Archer glances at Lancer, "...we wanted to make sure that Gilgamesh dies... one way or another." After that, he casually spills out all the info he knows, both from Throne of Heroes and what Shirou has told him: "Great greek hero Heracles...", Archer closes his eyes and starts talking, "most famous for clearing 12 impossible tasks set upon him by Eurystheus. Noble Phantasm, God Hand, which negates all attack below A rank, grants 12 lives and gives massive resistance after fully healing from the attack, bordering on invulnerability, is representation of that feat. In the ambush night prior, I counted that 6 lives has been lost, which means you have 6 more to go. Maybe 1 or 2 more if you can regenerate lost lives. Either way... I'm pretty confident I can take you down on my own, if there's need to. So..." Archer finally becomes more serious and stands in combat stance, muttering inside his head 'Trace... on' as his favored twin swords, Kanshou and Bakuya, appear in his hands. Finally, he finishes: "... would you let us pass and observe things, or do we have to take you down? Lancer alone can kill you at least 3 times, and I can finish out the rest." |
astroprogs said: If HF ended up being a single movie, what would it need to do so it can get a high score from all of you? Not air. |
| Servant: Berserker Location: Einzbern Forest "She has AVALON with her. Thus, she will WIN. It is unwise to be DOUBTING your COMRADE'S OWN CONVICTION." However, even as he says this, he knows full well that it would be pointless to reason his way out of this. To begin with, it shouldn't even be in his nature, as a warrior born to fight and conquer others. At Archer's confident statement, the hulking warrior turns his attention to him. "I do not FEAR the SUN GOD'S SON. I can SENSE his power, his TRUE power, and TRULY, I would be HONOURED should we FIGHT... HOWEVER, he will NOT be able to take more than TWO of MY LIVES." Berserker states as matter-of-fact, with the utmost confidence in his own words, fluctuating in correlation with the madness within him. "And as for you, ARCHER, I know NOT who YOU ARE, but that CONFIDENCE OF YOURS is an UNDERESTIMATION THAT MAY COST YOU YOUR LIFE." He prepares his axe-sword in anticipation for a battle. It is true that Lancer possesses Noble Phantasms that may be able to take a life or two of his, but so long as he is not fighting for his life, as long as he is fights with the the unimportant goal of 'observing the Einzbern Castle' rather than 'defeating Berserker above all else', he is not much of a danger right now. The real problem would be Archer, whose identity remains unknown, though that projection ability of his and what he's observed from Caren's display boards imply that he is capable of replicating numerous Noble Phantasm. Yes, from what is known thus far, this man can hypothetically take all of his lives - however, his own body and physical capacity limits him, as it is an area in which Berserker can effortlessly overwhelm him. Of course, it would not be a good idea to let him assume a long-ranged position, considering how he happens to be an Archer. As for Berserker himself, he remains confident in his abilities even with just over half the lives he used to have. His Master had tampered with his body somewhat earlier using Raviel, though it had been a rather unnecessary addition considering his already-overwhelming strength. Whether or not she did it, it would prove to matter little. Berserker's thoughts are all on instinct, as he simply processes and anticipates the possibilities and comes up with countermeasures. A machine-like rationality. This is, after all, Heracles. The most powerful Servant. "ONE MORE TIME, give me YOUR ANSWER... ARCHER. LANCER. WILL YOU OR WILL YOU NOT RETREAT HERE, TO FIGHT ANOTHER DAY?" |

| Emperor Shrimpy Einzbern Forest 9.45 PM 'No no no no no no no no' I am screaming. I am not screaming from physical pain. I am screaming from another Pain. The pain of losing someone important. My Teacher, the one who found me and gave me a purpose. 'Why why why why WHY' I remember it. The moment he rescued me. I was walking though the flames, trying to survive it. I tried to help people on my way, but everybody i helped died. Women, Children, Elderly People, everybody, died. Just because of some flame. I realised it then. I realised that i can't rescue anybody because i was weak, and i was without a purpose. I tried to survive alone, but eventually, i gave up. Before losing conscious however, i found a man laughing in happines coming closer to me. In that moment i knew that the man found something he has been searching for, and i tought to mysealf 'I wonder, if i find a purpose myself, while i be happy like he was?' When i woke up later, he took me in and teached me the way of Yuetsu, until, years later, he urged me to leave and find Yuetsu and purpose for my self. Eventually, i was able to conquer the Waters, and became Emperor of the Shrimps. I decided to return to Fuyuki city to meet my teacher again, when i was dragged into that War. Tears flow from my eyes. I don't remember this happening before. Tears. How nostalgic. When was the last time they flowed from my eyes? Was it during the Fire? Didn't my tears stop then after the 4th person i tried to rescue died in my hands? Wasn't it a black haired girl? What was her name again? 'Miya? Maiya? Miyu?' I don't exactly remember. Neither the Name nor the last time my tears flowed. However, i remember The Last Words of my Teacher "I am sorry to do this, but I cannot allow you to harm her master. Doing so will forfeit your life as well as mine, and I need someone to stay in this war to continue spreading true yuetsu. "I apologize again, Emperor of Shrimps, and I thank you for always being there. Goodbye....friend'' And i remember the smile he had. Ah. yes, the Smile. A warm smile. It's the first warm smile he ever had. 'Spread True Yuetsu, huh?' I will my tears to stop flowing. They don't stop flowing immediately, but atleast they slow down a little. ''Very well, Sensei'' I mutter to myself. ''Kotomine Shirou will carry out your will.'' I will do it. Even if Gilgamesh dies, i will do it. Even if i have to face Servants one on one, i will do it. It's your dying wish, and i will make it come true, no matter what. Kotomine Shirou, The Emperor of the Shrimps, was shaped by Kotomine Kirei, after all. I will follow the path of spreading Yuetsu to the World. I calm down, and talk to the Servant who killed my teacher, and smirk. ''Saber, i guess you will stand by your word to my late Teacher, and won't kill me. I am gonna leave now. Do you want me to say anything to your Husband-to-be?'' |

| Master : Mira Nyanko Mira Nyanko Residence Mira Nyanko calms down after the cosplay loli priest sits down without permission on her sofa , that somehow made her clam down. As Caren asks the question . Mira answers and speaks . She looks at Caren with a completely different look in her eyes, she seems like a completely different person now than before, it was like a completely different person has taken over her. This was when her other persona Kira- Nyanko appeared "What am I fighting for ? The Holy Grail can grant any wishes come true right?" "I already had my sights set since the war started," " I shall become the God of the new world!!!!" epic music suddenly plays from a music player inside her living room "Under normal circumstances, humans should have continued to evolve as the greatest creatures upon this earth, but we were actually regressing. A rotten world. Politics, law, education… Was there anybody around who could correct this world? But someone had to do it. That's right. This world needs a new God !!!!" Mira says with a complete Yandere look on her I am Justice ! I am God ! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Servant : Lancer Forest " It would be an honor facing you too, Divine Hero Heracles, but even if you're the Heracles as I'm speaking of, you're still at a disadvantage here." As Berserker asks, them to leave Lancer does not reply to Berserker but instead looks at Archer. It was like Lancer's waiting for Archer to make the first move, whether it would be falling back for now or to deal with Berserker |

| Overseer: Caren Hortensia Location: Nyanko Residence, 9:50 PM "..." Caren tilts her head in surprise, unsure how exactly to process this information at first. Truly, it didn't need to be said that this hadn't been the answer she'd been expecting. A desire to remake the world? To bring forth one's own messiah complex into reality? To become a God? They are things that sound ridiculous, and yet, it is clear that this girl truly believes what she's talking about. "...I see. Perhaps I have judged you wrongly you, Mira Nyanko. I know not of your past or motivation, but you truly are an interesting individual, one worthy of owning Lancer." The priestess gets up, dusting herself off for a bit before turning towards her directly with gleaming eyes. "I know not whether humans or not truly are regressing, but your drive is loud and clear, and I feel myself sympathizing with your plight. In fact, it may even be possible that you wish for the Holy Grail above all the other Masters." Then, she smiles. A kind, yet somehow cunning smile that demonstrates she has something in mind. "In that case, just this once, I would wish to help you. Of course, as an Overseer, it would be against the rules to do so, but if it is merely some information, it wouldn't hurt anyone, now would it?" Caren walks over towards Mira, and puts her hand on her shoulder. "Right now, Caster and her Master, residing in the Ryuudou Temple, plan on summoning a dragon. Not only that, but they already have the entirety of Fuyuki City as their hostage, and if Caster so wishes, she can immediately melt everyone within into pure mana for her own gain. Obviously, this wouldn't be very good. Very soon, they may very well become undefeatable." As she talks, she suppresses a chuckle. "However, you can change that. As they are right now, their defenses are still weak and they have not yet summoned a dragon, but after tonight, there's no guarantee that that'll still be the case. Even Lancer might not be able to beat them." Then, Caren gestures towards Mira's hand, which has three connected red marks like a double-edged knife on it. "So, for both our sakes, I implore you to seize victory right here and now. Use your Command Seal, bring him forth, and assault the Ryuudou Temple before they grow to become an enemy too powerful. And, should Caster die - I'd be more than welcome to recompensate you for your lost Seal..." Finally, after having spoken everything on her mind, she lets out a sigh and moves towards the door. "Of course, this is just a suggestion. Make of it as you wish." And then, Caren walks out the door and disappears. ... Meanwhile, far off in the Einzbern Forest, it appears that Berserker is also waiting for either Archer or Lancer to make a move on their own. She has confidence that Berserker will win, but still, there's no telling what may result from all this. |
|
| Master : Kira- Nyanko Mira Nyanko Residence As Caren walks out and disappears, "Hmmm, that's a very tempting offer...... only one command seal as compensation huh... " "That's not enough obviously. Maybe should be two instead.." "What reason does she have in helping and giving me information... She's obviously planning something behind the scenes, waiting for the right moment " This other persona of Mira- Nyanko . Kira- Nyanko is far more capable than Mira. She's able to think more rationally and is a genius strategist in her own way "Very well, I shall take on Team Caster . Now to go to the forest where Lancer is at. I could not afford to lose a command seal right now. Better go there myself. " "Of course I would not head inside that battlefield directly. Lancer already warned me. I just simply have to summon a familiar. That would make Lancer notice me." Kira- Nyanko Heads to the Einzbern Forest |

| Servant: Archer Edge of Einzbern forest, around 10 PM "ONE MORE TIME, give me YOUR ANSWER... ARCHER. LANCER. WILL YOU OR WILL YOU NOT RETREAT HERE, TO FIGHT ANOTHER DAY?", Berserker asks. Archer contemplates. His Master is supposedly already at the castle... and Archer will have to come to his aid sooner or later. For that, either he'll have to pass by Berserker... or Shirou will have to use Command Spell. Neither choice is good. Add to that the fact that Berserker is forgetting something when it comes to Saber. "Saber has Avalon, that's right... and while it will help her, it can shield only one person. As long as her Master is there with her, unless someone can protect him, she will lose", Archer corrects Berserker. 'Excalibur. Caladbolg. Gram. Durandal. Dainsleif. Herpe. Even the twin swords might do the trick', Archer quickly analyzes the situation and brings out necessary blueprints of the weapons from the legends, powerful enough that, at least when broken, can hurt - and kill - Berserker. "I'd rather avoid expending my prana for the fight, as if we clash, I'll have to bring out everything I have to win. However, my Master is already in the forest and I really need to get to him", Archer tries to let Berserker let him pass without a fight. He then turns to Lancer with a smirk: "So, Lancer... do you think you'll be able to hold him on your own?" |

| Master of Archer, Emiya Shirou Einzbern Forest, 10pm Unaware of loss, nor aware of gain. Trace on. Arondight II. A dark indigo blade appeared in his mind, its form elongating and its blade becoming more streamlined as it contorted into what Shirou thought to be its best form for him. The modified blade appeared in his right hand in a shimmer of glossy purple just as the familiar black bow made its way into his left. Saber and Okabe had not moved just yet, and there was no sign of Gi- "ONE MORE TIME, give me YOUR ANSWER... ARCHER. LANCER. WILL YOU OR WILL YOU NOT RETREAT HERE, TO FIGHT ANOTHER DAY? Shirou could hear the gravelly voice of Berserker through his connection with Archer. He grimaced in annoyance. It seemed that Berserker really was going to oppose them. I suppose we should take care of Berserker first...but can I make it back here in time to save Saber...? Shirou made up his mind then, and leapt down from the tree, his lithe body sprinting across the dense forest towards Berserker. He needed to get to Archer, and find a good vantage point for him to shoot his newely modified blade. Archer, I'm coming. Your Agility rank can't match Berserker's, so don't fight him in melee range. Let Lancer fight up-close to Berserker while you support him from behind. |

| Servant : Lancer Einzbern Forest " Ohh? Backing out now Archer? " "Whatever, either way. The end result would be the same whether you're here or not " Lancer says arrogantly. Just as Lancer says that, Lancer's master arrived from behind " Lancer ! We're getting out of here. We have somewhere to go." *Lancer recognizes the voice from behind, it was his master's, as he looked behind. He was surprised, at first glance, he recognized her as his master, but something is completely different about her* Kira- Nyanko : Lancer, we're going out to kill Caster and her master right now. Apparently she is about to summon a dragon. Deliberately letting Archer hear. What's going on? This isn't master's usual self... But i have no choice but to follow master's command... " We shall take our leave now, " Kira- Nyanko and Lancer now leaves Einzbern Forest and heads to Ryuudou Temple |

| Master of Archer, Emiya Shirou Einzbern Forest, 10.02pm Shirou could feel the waves of killing intent as he ran towards Archer. He leapt upwards, perching on a tree close to the edge of the forest. He had a clear view of Archer, Lancer and Berserker. The black giant emitted killing intent almost as if it were as natural as breathing, the blazing hot feel of his madness and anger reaching out to unnerve Shirou. Shirou's arms tensed as he notched Arondight II onto his bow and pointed it down at his target. If he shot now, Berserker would be killed once, and he would have three seconds before getting beaten into red paste. He had to time his next projection very carefully, and synchronise his attacks with Archer and Lancer. And just as he thought so, Lancer's Master appeared, a smirk that did not seem to belong on her innocent face. She walked over to her Servant and said in a rather loud voice, " Lancer, we're going out to kill Caster and her master right now. Apparently she is about to summon a dragon." Shirou's mind stopped as he heard what she said. As Lancer and his Master departed, he stood on the branch, Arondight II still notched on his bow, but his mind was reeling. They're going to kill Elizabeth-san. I...what should I do? If I stay here, she'll die. But if I leave... Shirou turned his head to look deep into the Einzbern Forest, If I leave, Saber will die. Who should I save then? What should I do? And then he felt a chill in his heart as he felt a presence from far away, a majestic but malefic aura that he was all too familiar with. That was when he made up his mind. That's right, I came here to save her. I can't just stop here! I'm sorry, Elizabeth-san, but I'll have to save you later...! He glanced at Archer, who stood stoically twenty metres away from Berserker, and back at the black giant, whose attention was now focused on the remaining Servant. Archer, he's got seven lives, right? Shirou asked almost casually as he pulled the carbon-fibre string on his bow back, the sleek black polymer protesting slightly as he pulled as hard as he could. Then, he turned his attention to the indigo sword, its pride unblemished even in such a twisted form. He poured prana from all twenty-seven of his circuits into it, filling it with explosive energy and causing it to hum slightly. Our opponent is Heracles, the mightiest Greek hero, who ascended into godhood and whose strength is unparalled. There was a quiet fizz as the smooth surface of the twisted blade cracked slightly under Shirou's command, its capacity filling up to a point of no return. And as it reached the zenith, dark blue sparks spurted from the cracks and it vibrated with an unearthly energy. Well then, let's take down a god, shall we? And in a single move, Shirou pointed Arondight II at Berserker's torso, released his fingers on the bowstring, and let loose a blast of annihilation. Broken Phantasm: Arondight! |

| Master of Caster: Elizabeth Reed Servant: Caster Location: Ryuudou Temple After Elizabeth told Caster what they should be doing and after Elizabeth got the golden fleece and worked through the process with Caster, this taking practically the entire battle time in Ezinbern Forest. They had both gone down at the base of the Ryuudo temple so they could complete the summon. They had finally done it. They had summoned Casters ultimate phantasmal beast. The might Colchis Dragon! She gave a hearty laugh as the strong winds blew through her hair and even made her step back a bit. The violent struggle of the scenery to stay in place as the massive booming creature came into the fold. Elizabeth continued to laugh until the massive creature was fully summoned as she continued to back up giving it room as it was slowly birthed into the sky. http://www.mysticunicorn.com/graphics/rvi/DP4247.jpg Elizabeth let out another hardy chuckle and put her hands on her shoulder with a wide child like grin. She had been extremely proud of the work her and Caster had performed. And she knew that with this dragon. There would be nothing that would be able to stop her and her alliance to crush Gilgamesh and with any luck, Maybe they would destroy berseker to. "We, have done it, we did it! we did it! This is far easier than your average Conjuration...Sure it was exhausting but I did not have to use a single drop of blood! Not even one. But yet with simply just mana we could create such a powerful being such as this it really is incredible. This probably makes us the greatest conjuration mages in all of the world! Maybe of all time! This is more than Dues ex machina! I have no doubt we can stomp our enemies with this. I bet the guys are gonna love this eh Medea?!” She yelled over the chaos in the dragon forming until it finally calmed down a bit. She said putting out her hand up to Caster to give her a high five. However, Caster simply stood there silently which quickly made Elizabeth also quickly silent as she glanced up at Caster one more time. Turning her gesture for a high five into a slow stretch, which eventually led to her rubbing her pants and dusting off her hands with an awkward cough. “Right. Well, Medea you are a wonderful servant. I couldn’t have possibly asked for a better mage at my side. But we should probably get ready to head out now. I don’t want to miss the action and I don’t allies dropping dead on us. I need to make sure Lancer and his master and everyone else know that we got there backs through thick and thin!” Elizabeth had made an alliance within their larger alliance with Lancer, and she wanted to make sure they proved to Lancer and his master that they will not regret it. But at the same time, she felt a rush of excitement. In a way she was almost looking forward to going into battle. With such overwhelming strength Gilgamesh would surely crumble..And so would Kotomine… Caster blinked as she watched Elizabeth...She had way too much energy. It was very annoying to her how much she talked. But then nodded at her compliment. “Well, thank you master. But I think that we should get going now.” Elizabeth looked up at her with a thumbs up and nodded giving a wide grin showing all of her teeth. “Don’t worry Caster. I swear that no matter what we are gonna win this battle, and we are going to win this war. I will not let another subordinate, or ally to me die in this war. I have made it a solemn vow.” The dragon, Colchis then came to a sudden halt and then began to land itself letting out a loud thooming exhale from his nose. Once he landed Elizabeth then walked up to the massive beast and looked him dead in the eyes with a smile as the creature continued to frown at her. Without a change of expression, it gave a glare of fierce superiority and ravenous intent. The intent to destroy and kill, yet despite that it seemed rather calm and tamed at the moment. The reasons were obvious but Elizabeth felt like she needed to create a bond with everything around her. She patted the dragon on the nose and softly rubbed him. “Alrigh, hi there...Colchis… I am Elizabeth, Master of Caster who has your golden fleece.” She paused as she pointed to Medea. “Hate to bring you out on such short notice but we need you to hold out for us a little bit. We are gonna reform this war and with your help it will all be possible. You probably don’t understand what I am saying for the most part, but me and Medea will make sure you don’t fail. We will watch your back if you can watch ours. As of this moment we are allies.” |
| Servant : Lancer On the way to Ryuudou As Lancer and Kira-Nyanko walks silently towards Ryuudou Temple " Master, how'd you know that Caster and her Master will be summoning a Dragon tonight?" How? The Overseer herself came to me and even shared that info to me. That Caster and her master should be taken out before they summon the dragon. I belive that's the best choice too. Listen Lancer, Once we get there, we kill them right away as fast as possible, don't even waste a single second thinking about mercy. Stick this to your mind. Kill them as fast as you can Lancer thinks to himself.... Now i get it.. I see.. so this is her other self.... not bad her level of thinking is on a different level from her original self As they near towards the temple " What is this massive amount of mana coming from the temple ? , we must hurry master" As they arrive at the temple, they see Caster, Her master, and a huge dragon that only existed in legends " Master..... It looks like we were too late" This isn't what we planned, even I didn't expect them to be one step ahead. Disregard our plan, we'll use other methods to deal with this * Lancer and Kira- Nyanko approach Team Caster * |
|
| Servant: Berserker Location: Einzbern Forest, 10:03 PM If it had to be put into words... Berserker is surprised. Surprised that such a apparently-weak boy could've produced such a massive attack. When the arrow was fired, on instinct he moved his axe-sword to defend and deflect it away, but it still ended causing a gigantic explosion, incinerating the whole area within a thirty-meter radius, leveling a small portion of the forest, leaving him at the center of a wide, scorched field. His consciousness ends for just a moment, before beginning anew like a new fire being lit, and all the damage that his body had suffered is being repaired quickly - in fact, much more so that it would've had his Master been anyone but the Overseer. Berserker's head twitches somewhat violently, a large portion of his torso having been blasted away, but it regenerates in an instant, as does all other damage, to the point that he has been restored back to his original state within the span of a mere three seconds. Truly, he is surprised, having not expected such an attack. Had he known that the boy could've done something as that, he would've prepared better so that he wouldn't have had to unnecessarily lose a life. However, upon sensing the Master of Archer through the flames, it is clear that he had somewhat tired himself to do so. Taking advantage of this, Berserker rushes towards Shirou at a near-godlike speed. There is a distance of fifty meters between them, but to someone such as himself, this distance is rendered irrelevant. Rushing ahead at a speed of twenty meters per second, within the span of less than three seconds, he should cross past the flattened land and strike down the boy in what will appear as an instant. Of course, as he fully expects the boy's Servant to be providing support as an Archer, he is forced to maneuver in zigzags, avoiding the bombardments - which ought to be harmless, but would slow him down further nonetheless - extending it by another two seconds. "  "He lets out an inhuman roar as he charges forth. In total, it will take him five seconds to close in on the massive distance between them and crush Shirou, and that same amount of time is all the team of fakers has to react in response to him. ~ ~ ~ Overseer: Caren Hortensia Location: Shinto, Fuyuki Church The priestess is clearly pleased with herself, with three battles about to begin at around the same time. Not too far away, on the opposite side of the city, a dragon has just been summoned, but Mira followed her suggestion loyally and is now having Lancer engage the people responsible for it, Team Caster. Hopefully, Lancer will live up to his name and slay them, but if he were to fall, that would be just as fine, since truth-seers are much harder to manipulate than normal people. Meanwhile, in the Einzbern Forest, her own Servant Berserker has engaged Team Archer in battle, preventing them from proceeding onwards. She trusts the besat enough to put up a good fight and perhaps cause a lot of damage to them, but in all honesty, the real reason she is allowing this fight is because she wishes to test Archer's own skills, having taken a bit of an interest in him ever since his first visit. Should Berserker find himself on the losing side, she will probably have to offer support with Raviel, but that's not so important. As he is already an extraordinary Servant, even minor support will make him far more dangerous. And of course, the most important battle has yet to come. That man...who claimed to be her father...is gone, the Emperor of Shrimps is planning on retreating back, and the time is coming for Saber and that odd mad scientist to face the most troublesome piece in this war, the King of Heroes, and end him once and for all. It doesn't even need to be said - she has absolute trust in the might of Saber, and even if that knight were to find herself on the defensive, she would not hesitate to manipulate the odds slightly with Raviel. "Truly, this is going to be quite the show..." In other words, epic duels of legend are about to happen. The Holy Grail truly is progressing well. In satisfaction with her own work, Caren Hortensia lies back and nods to herself. Of course, there is one thing that bugs her at the back of her mind, so she makes the tiniest, most insignificant mental note - to retrieve his body when she next has the chance. |

| Servant: Archer Edge of Einzbern forest, around 10 PM "We shall take our leave now", a sinister voice, apparently coming from Lancer's Master, orders Lancer. Archer grits his teeth in annoyance; things are going from bad to worse every moment. Saber will soon face Gilgamesh, and her chance of victory isn't as secure as many others think... and Lancer is going to attack Caster, who might summon a dragon any moment now... leaving him alone to deal with Berserker. Not really wanting to face against one of the most powerful Servants right now, knowing that combating him will require everything from Archer to defeat him, Archer dismisses projected twin swords... only to hear Shirou's mental "shout": "Well then, let's take down a god, shall we?" Hearing that - and sensing a Broken Phantasm coming Berserker's way - Archer grits his teeth in annoyance and jumps away from Berserker. Moment before the explosion occurs, he recognizes the projectile: Arondight II. Despite being annoyed at his Master for locking them now in the battle, Archer can't help but smile as Arondight took one of Berserker's remaining lives. 'One down, five to go... in best case. In worst case, eight to go.' He makes a mental note not to use Arondight anymore. Knowing that, until Berserker's Master calls him back, they're locked in the battle to the death, Archer sighs and decides to prepare for using his trump card should it become necessary. It's already bad enough that Berserker's stats are at least one rank higher than his own without Mad Enhancement, Berserker is also immune to every attack below A rank... and has to be killed each time in different way. So, using a bit of mana, he chants a first verse of his only trump card: I am the bone of my sword. Together with a chant, he also projects one of the weapons he knows that are A rank. A renowned chinese halberd, Houtengeki, which is the only halberd that attained status of Noble Phantasm and became Rank A due to use of Houtengageki (God Force) by military commander Lü Bu. Only problem is... due to only so many information being able to comprehend using one sense only, quality of projection is dropped by one rank, so to achieve same effect as the original, Archer will have to break every Noble Phantasm to get it back to A rank. For that, he starts filling the Houtengeki with mana while he runs to stand between his exausted Master and Berserker, waiting for Berserker to recover as Archer didn't want to recklessly rush to attack Berserker. However... "So fast", Archer gasps as Berserker heals in only 3 seconds and yells before recognizing Shirou as a threat and rushing to attack him: " "'He didn't heal that fast last time... I see, difference in Masters', Archer thinks as he his run increases to rush towards Shirou to protect him, trying to come to him before Berserker and ending up being slightly late; thankfully, Berserker's zigzagging in expectance of arrows gave Archer enough time to come just in time and effortlessly, using the proficience and skills halberd memorized from its original owner, slashes at Berserker from behind with a Broken Phantasm, aiming for a kill to force Berserker to either defend it or get away from Shirou. |

| Master of Archer, Emiya Shirou Einzbern Forest, 10.03pm " "It was a roar of madness that Shirou heard as he panted from the exertion of Breaking Arondight II. He could project two more swords of Arondight's power before falling unconscious, though he did bring some extra reserves... But there was no time to think. The black embodiment of death had already begun charging towards him. Shirou poured a trickle of prana into his feet and reinforced them, before leaping backwards off the branch. He twisted in the air and pushed off a tree trunk, his legs propelling him deep into the Einzbern Forest. He touched down on the grassy floor with a small explosion of residue prana, and proceeded to sprint even deeper into the forest He'll be far slower here, with so many trees in his way. Tch, I need to recover a bit, Arondight took too much out of my reserves... As he raced past an endless number of trees, he felt Archer project Houtengeki and slash Berserker with it. Shirou gritted his teeth and ran even faster. Archer, hold him back as much as possible. Retreat into the forest if you need to. Just... And Shirou stopped in an open field, where the trees parted to form a slight break from the dense forestry, panting hard as he took in breath after breath of precious oxygen and regaining his strength as fast as possible. He was far enough from Berserker now, and Archer, engaging Berserker in guerrilla warfare, would slow him down even more. For the moment, he could afford to rest a bit. Just buy me some time and stay alive. I have a plan. |

| Master of Caster: Elizabeth Reed Servant: Caster (Temporary Control) Location: Base of the Ryuudou Temple. Elizabeth continued to talk to the Dragon for some strange reason. As she got up on it and started to mount the rather large phantasmal beast. "You know you are really fucking awesome Colchis! I think I have fallen in love already. You know, riding you reminds me a lot of some sort of fantasy. Makes me feel like one of those legendary knights of justice. Swooping down from the havens to aid her brothers in arms. Isn't it great? We are going to prevail in this battle today. All of us!" Pausing as a echoing thought went through her head. The voice of a crying Ashikaga before the grail war. "I-I am sorry Elizabeth...We can't be heroes any more." She then tapped the dragon on the fore head as she leaned over his head. "Alright now, me and Medea got a schedule to uphold we can not keep them waiting any longer! I will brief you on the way Sir Colchis..I think you should have a different name while we are at it." She then responded to the echoing voice in her head. "No Ashikaga, there is still a chance. I will be the hero you-we always wanted to be. I will make you proud so you better get ready to sit on the edge of your seat boy. Get ready to watch." The dragon blinked and looked up at Elizabeth as she leaned over him and let out another loud huff through his nose as he started to unravel himself and stand up on his legs. Spreading out his massive wings creating another single powerful gust of wind as they opened. Before shaking itself lightly and let out another loud roar that echoed across the primarily silent temple and everywhere around it. Elizabeth plugged her ears with her fingers cringing and wrinkling a little bit from how loud it was. "As awesome as that is turn it down please, or at least give a fair warning next time." The dragon huffed looking slightly annoyed and whipped his head back which made Elizabeth fly back a little bit as she screamed before landing on her back with a loud grunt. Then got up and adjusted herself in a more formal riding position and smacking him on the head, even though it didn't do much. Hurting herself a bit more than him. As she opened her mouth and let out a silent cry of pain as she shook her hand softly. Caster blinked as she watched the dragon and Elizabeth goof off as they got ready to fly and sighed heavily as she began to prepare herself for flight and combat. Before she had stopped herself in hesitation and stood their silently. She sensed a presence coming closer. They were closing in fast, as if they had harmful intent, before they then came to a sudden slow down...There was two of them...One of them she instantly could recognize as Lancer...But there was another. Someone they had not encounters yet...Perhaps this was Lancers mysterious master who up until this point as seemed to hide in the shadows. Had they been defeated already? Bored? No, surely such a battle could have ended that quickly. Or did they actually have intent to watch only and Sabers bizarre master had gotten them both killed? No, and it wasn't retreat either. There would be no need so early. Even if Gilgamesh had gotten an advantage. They seemed to also have high tension when they approached. And Caster certianly did not like this, and was being cautious as she approached her master before they took flight. "Master, Lancer is approaching us. He seems to be followed by his master. They don't seem to be very happy. I would hold out on your plans, we may need to protect ourselfs at this moment. Be cautious." Elizabeth turned to look down at Caster and sighed raising an eyebrow. "Come on Medea, where is your faith? I have full confidence that Lancer will hold up his end. He seems like a very respectable person. And I doubt he would go back on his word without informing me first. I would do the same for him." She started before leaning down to pat Caster on the head. "I know you have been through a lot. I have as well. But I think you need to start putting a bit more faith in the world. Just a suggestion is all." She said quickly pulling her hand away as Lancer and his ominous master began to approach them. Elizabeth didn't really give Caster all of it. Really she was suspicious of everyone all the time. But she always had a cloak of optimism to hide behind. Every sense Ashikaga died at that ambush her thought process never really returned to normal. In the back of her mind she always braced herself for the worst. But always wanted to go about finding the way for the best possible situation. And her alliances with others have been her best streak of luck yet, but more specifically her alliance with Lancer, recognizing him as one of the strongest besides probably Gilgamesh would be her greatest ally. There was her masters thoughts...Perhaps a change of heart? She had hoped not. Once they had arrived not to far away. The dragon had still stood there, narrowing his eyes as he watched them come into view. Taking a step forward with a loud "Thoom!" As it shook the ground very slightly as it took a step forward. Opening its mouth slightly exhaling as a thick grey cloud of steam rolled out of its mouth with a loud hiss. Followed by a small growl as it watched them approach. Giving its wings another stretch as a gust of air pushed the steam into Lancer and his masters faces as if he was about to attack. Before Elizabeth let out a loud yell between coughs to calm him down. "Hey, hey, hey! Easy boy easy! Hush!" She said as she rubbed his head a little bit trying to calm him a bit before he calmed down a tiny bit as Elizabeth let out another sigh of relief. Elizabeth had not completely shrugged of Casters warning. But she would like to believe it is not true if possible. Elizabeth then waved to them as the steam and smoke cleared with the same energetic and child like smile she normally did. "Hey Lancer! Welcome back! You must have kicked some butt eh? Knew ya could." She paused and turned to look at the girl beside him who looked a lot more villainous then she had expected Lancers master to be. But she had no real complaints as she turned to look at her and great her. "You must be Lancers master! Wow, I never thought I would see you walking around. I am so glad I finally get to see you. I would love to talk, but I am pretty busy. I am about to go help Archer, Shirou and everyone get rid of Gilgamesh, his master and Kotomine before things get crazy! With the help of this big boy" Then paused to point at the dragon. "He is pretty cool huh? Me and Caster make quite the mage team to make something like this don't ya think?" She began before she paused to think about it. Lancer didn't leave to get his master. Surely he had gone to help or observed the others at the very least. It couldn't have been that fast? Making a brief note that they did seem to be rather tense. Making her cock her head to the side suddenly. She had came to the same conclusion Caster had. But she thought something else had most likely been the reason. "Oh no Lancer? Please don't tell me. Are they alright? Shirou, Archer, Saber and her master? Surely Gilgamesh couldn't have killed all for of them or make them fall back that easily? Was I too late to bring aid? Did we fail them all again? No way it can't be...I didn't fail them all did I? What happened to bring you here?" She clenched her hands together before biting her lips and grunting softly. Her palms of her hands had been covered in short cut scars. Assuming she had planned something. It wasn't really intended for anyone though. It was just insurance in case anything ever back fired on her in this place. Caster watched Lancers master more specifically than Lancer himself. Observing her very carefully and silently. But that was all she did as she stood there. |

 So, the most entertaining of priests has been slain by the King of Knights and the Emperor of Shrimps has been reduced to a pitiful state. What a shame. It would appear a limit has been definitively placed on my time upon this world. Lesser beings would feel a sense of sadness over the loss of people who have managed to gain so much of their acknowledgement and respect, the loss of those who provide them with such great amounts of Yuetsu. But, those sentiments within me are absent as expected. In this era of abundance and mass population, what is another death? How much is truly lost when someone ceases to provide value of any sort to the progression or regression of humanity? All mortals are carryout such brief existences. To attach any long term weights to them would only be needlessly burdening one's self. Even those who are not mortal are not necessarily exempt from that fate. However, at times there are burdens that are worth maintaining in one's treasury. *A chain recedes back into its gate.* The King of Knights, the treasure that I will at last rightfully claim, shall be arriving soon. I anticipate her submission to me. (spoiler to decrease clutter) |

| Master : Kira- Nyanko Servant : Lancer Ryuudou Temple As they approach Team Caster, " Lancer, I've changed my mind. Now that things turned out this way. We don't need to clash here. Let me handle this, Just stay on your guard in case they make their move first " Lancer nodded as they approach Team Caster in a serious manner " My name's Kira- Nyanko, or " Kira " in short. I am Lancer's master" she greets herself to Elizabeth and Caster  " Elizabeth and Caster. I've heard about you two from my Lancer. It seems like he formed an alliance with you two" "I believe you're about to go inside that forest too right? I thought to inform you that there's a guardian guarding the forest. Berserker's in the way. " "Right now. Archer and his master Emiya is probably facing off against him now. " hehehe now to put that nuisance, the dragon to good use and take out Berserker in the process, maybe Archer too. " Well? I suggest you bring that dragon with you there and take out the guard Berserker? " |
