Time Night
POV Emiya Shirou

"Finally done" I said as I finished cleaning the club room and let out a sigh of relief.
Looking at the window I realized how late it is I started grabbing my stuff as I prepared to leave.

Going out I started breathing the fresh night air as I thought how my week went.
Start Of The Flashback

Time Night (Five Days Ago)

POV Emiya Shirou

"I wonder what I'll make for dinner today.." I mumbled as I finished my shift at Copenhagen and started to leave.

Across the street I saw pair of man and woman who looked like foreigners with weird hair colors especially the guy who looked like he had blue hair and beside them is car.
I heard what they were saying because they were pretty loud "God damn it just work already you stupid car!" The woman yelled as she tried to turn on the car while the man yawned out loud "Just leave it here we can walk to the church you said it yourself it isn't that far away so let's just go" The man said as started to scratch his ear.

The woman let out a loud growl and said "We can't leave it here I rented this car so I can't just leave it and I don't know how to fix the damn thing so I'll have to call for help" The woman got out of the car pull out her cellphone.

I went to towards the duo and said "I might be able to help you" They both look surprised as I went near the them.

"Are you sure you can fix it?" The woman said as she looked at me suspiciously.

"Yeah I worked on car similar to this one so I might be able to at the least see what the problem is" I said as I looked at the car.
The woman looked abit reluctant at first but then relented and said "Fine you can can take look at it just don't do anything suspicious" nodding my head I went started checking the car.

Time Night ( Few Minutes Later)

POV Emiya Shirou

After closing the hood of the car I looked at the woman said "Try turning on now to see if it works" The woman nodded slowly and got inside the car started to turn on the car to which it did work.

The woman got out of the car "Thanks alot for that kid sorry for doubting you there we had it pretty rough this week" The woman said tiredly and now that I look at her face closely I can see some dark circles under her eyes " How can I repay you for your help" The woman said smiling.

"No need it was pretty minor problem but you might want to change the oil pretty soon as well" I said smiling back at her and then I felt a strong arm wrapped around my neck.

"Well that's not a option I'll pretty bad if we didn't repay you" The guy said while smirking and were his eyes glowing?

pushing those thoughts away "You really don't have to help me with anything" I said politely as I looked at the guy.

He frowned then started to look around then he looked at Copenhagen then smirked again "You work there right? We will be staying here for while so we will visit this place" He said smirking "And you get to talk to this fine lady over here and ge—!" The man stopped talk as the woman punched him in the stomach.

"Sorry about him we will visit this restaurant if we have the time but right now we have some work to do" The woman said calmly as she grabbed the man pushed him inside the car and closed the door and got in herself "Thanks again for the help and have good night" The woman said as she drove off.

'Huh that was pretty weird duo' I thought as I start to walking back home then I remembered 'I didn't there names'shrugging my shoulders I continued on my path.

End Of The Flashback

Time Night

POV Emiya Shirou

After that those two became regulars at Copenhagen and told me their names which are Bazett Fraga McRemitz? and Cú Chulainn? And am pretty sure that I heard that name before.

beside that Cu kept on hitting on the boss and complaining there is no alcoholic beverages on the menu and Bazett trying to stop him from making mess and also trying some of the food saying she never had Japanese food before apparently and wanted to try some.
But what really surprised me was the fact the Cu apparently was 27 and bazett 23 because they looked pretty young.

Other than that I got along with them pretty well even exchanged numbers with Bazett because apparently Cu couldn't figure how to use cellphone.

Today was my day that's why he stayed and cleaned club room but he didn't expect it to be this late.

As he got out of the school building he saw bunch of people fighting and were those Bazett and Cú..?!

See someone hidden in cloak behind Bazett holding what looks to be a dagger I yelled out loud "Bazett behind you!"

Bazett turned around in terrifying speed and punched the cloaked figure sending him flying then the cloaked figure vanished into thin air.
The other cloaked figures that surrounded Cú start to all vanish into thin air leaving pretty confused then I look at Bazett and Cú who looked pretty injured especially Cú.

"Are you two alright?" I ask as I went ran towards them.

"Shirou it's dangerous out here didn't I tell you not to come out in night?" Bazett said angrily as I got near them "There are dangerous people out h—" I interrupted Bazett and said "I'm also Magus" I say causing them to look surprised.

"Let's go back to my house so I can patch you guys up"I said making them both look at each other then Bazett sighed "fine let's go to your house.."

Smiling at them "Do you want me help you walk?" I asked as I looked at Cú.

"Don't worry about me kid it takes way more then this to take me down" He said then he smirked "But your friend might need some help walking she one of those bastard hit her pretty hard so she will need the help" He said while smiling and winked at me making me turn towards Bazett who looked annoyed at Cú but didn't deny anything he said.

"Do you want me to help you?" I said because she might not want me touching her.

She looked reluctant but then sighed then nodded her head to which I put her arm around shoulder helping her stand up.

'Was she always this heavy?' I thought but pushed those thoughts away as I start heading home with Cú in the back making sure nobody is following us.

As we got inside I put Bazett down and went to grab medkit and went towards Bazett first because she looked worse than Cú.

She had pretty big slash wounds on her right thigh and left shoulder and once I was done with Bazett I went towards Cú and he had puzzled expression on his face as he looked at me.

"I appreciate the gesture kid but you know I'm Servant and I'll be fine the morning right?" Cú said looking puzzled at my confused expression.

"Servant?" I said confused at he said as I looked at him then I looked at Bazett who looked weirdly at me.

"Yeah you know the Holy Grail War and stuff" Cú said in casual manner as he looked me.

"Holy Grail War..?" I said even more confused by what he said.

"You don't know about Holy Grail War..?" Bazett said in dumbfounded voice as she looked me.

"I really don't understand what is going on outside and why those cloaked figures were trying to attack you guys so can you please tell me what is going on in Fuyuki" I said as looked at Bazett who looked reluctant at first but then sighed "alright I'll explain everything to you but you have to answer any questions does that sound good?"Bazett said and I nodded my head.

"Where do I even begin..?" Bazett said tiredly as she looked at the ceiling.

Time: Night
POV: Emiya Shirou

After Bazett explained to what the Grail War is about and what happened in the previous Grail War.

I was shocked and I was more surprised the families that made Holy Grail War and so I told Bazett about them.

"Bazett I might know which Servant as they both the Matou and Tohsaka they both come to my school."

I said which surprised them.

"Really? That actually helps us out alot. Now we just need to figure out which Servants they own." Bazett said while looking deep in thought.

"I might actually know something about that too. I heard Tohsaka in the class talking about 'annoying archer' few days ago so her Servant might be of the Archer. and Sakura was reading about greek mythology the past few days about Medusa myth so that might be her Servant."

I say which made Bazett look at me shocked.

"That...is actually really helpful."

Bazett said as she looked at me.

"Alright so we know about three Servants. Archer who we don't know about, Assassin who is the same as the previous Grail war known as Hassan Of The Hundred Presonas, And Servant who is from Greek mythology in Medusa myth who I suspect to be Rider. So that leaves us with just Caster and Berserker because Saber hasn't been summoned yet..."

Bazett trailed off and continued speaking.

But I was surprised when about the last she said.

"Saber hasn't been Summoned yet?" I asked Bazett surprised.

"Yeah Saber hasn't been summoned yet. Remember the priest I mentioned as neutral party? We both know each other before and he told me that all Servants have been summoned except Saber."

Bazett said as she looked at courtyard the window where Cu is writing in the air with his right hand and there is soft blue glow on his fingertips as words from language I didn't know until recently which is Celtic I understood only few of the words he wrote in the air before he sighed and went to another corner of the courtyard and started to do the same thing over there.

I looked back at Bazett and said.

"... Do think I can summon Saber?"

I asked Bazett as she looked at me surprised and I can even feel Cu looking at me the from courtyard smiling at me through the window.

She looked at me seriously and said.

"Are you sure about this? I know you want to help me but this is a war so we will have to fight even if we managed to beat the other Masters you understand that right?"

I nodded my and said in a serious voice.

"Yes I understand and I already told you I don't care about the Holy Grail just to make sure the fire or anything like it to ever happen again."

Bazett still didn't look convinced and was about to protest against my decision until Cu came in since he finished what he was doing in the courtyard and said.

"I think the kid got what it takes Master so just let him help us?"

He said in a cool voice with toothy grin on his face.

Bazett seeing both of out expressions before letting out and nodding.

"Then come on let's setup a summoning circle."

Bazett said as starting explaining on how to make a summoning circle while trying to get up.

I realized it was the exact same thing in my shed and said.

"I might actually have something like that in my shed."

When I said that Bazett looked at me with a puzzled expression and said.

"Are you sure your Father wasn't a Master in the last war?"

And to be honest I wasn't sure anymore too.

-x-

After we got inside of shed and started preparing for the summoning.

Bazett started instructing me on how to start the summoning.

"Now stand in front of the summoning reciting what I said word for word without any hesitation or hiccups understood?"

I wondered for a second about who I'm going to summon so I Asked Bazett.

"Who Am I going to summon?"

Bazett shrugged and said.

"From what I know if you have a Catalyst of the Heroic Spirit you are trying to summon then it's guaranteed but if you don't have a Catalyst then you're going to summon a Servant of personality."

Cu leaning on walls of the shed grinned and said.

"I can think of few people he can summon already."

To be honest their answers made me more curious about who I'm going to summon.

I took a deep breath and started Reciting the summoning.

Location unknown

Time ?

POV Emiya

And once again I am back here.

A sight so familiar to me.

Before it was a barren desert landscape adorned with weapons upon weapons farther than the eye could see.

With rusted gears in the sky moving mechanical as if this entire world was the inside of a machine.

Each weapon telling of a story.

Of a legend ingrained into history.

But it has changed.

Now the once soulless desert was turned into lushest green fields.

Weapons that only told of the tragedies and atrocities it has caused.

Now also told of the lives it has saved and of the life of its wielders.

Now every legend here is completed from start to finish.

The rusted gears that had once moved mechanically now moved in a way that would resemble a heartbeat.

Emiya took a deep breath and let the air fill his lungs.

After few seconds he let the breath out.

He was holding a sword in his hand.

That sword told of a story not known to many but was a treasure to those who know of it.

On the swords handle a name was written on it.

Ritsuka Fujimaru

The name of his last Master who wielded this sword.

He asked her to keep it close.

She asked why she had to do that at that time.

So I answered her.

"So I will never forget you no matter what."

He smiled softly as he remembered that moment.

'I really should have worded that better at that time…"

He remembered how red her face got as it matched the color of her hair.

He felt a familiar tug on his being.

He hummed knowing he was being summoned.

He wandered for a second what Class he is gonna be summoned in.

He got as all the Class containers already except Saber.

Which his Master found quite ironic considering how much I used swords.

He took one last glance at the sword in his hand and remembered his good byes he and his Master shared.

She was crying but she had a smile on her face as looked at all of them.

"Thank you all for your help everyone."

As he was about to remember more he felt himself fully manifesting on in front of who summoned him.

And he thought he couldn't be surprised anymore.

But he was surprised by two things.

One he is a Saber.

And two he summoned himself.

Or correction a Younger version himself summoned him.

Both of those things never happened before.

And now both of them happened together.

Well at the least this Grail War will be interesting.

POV Emiya
Location: Fuyuki
Time: 12:30 AM

I was standing in front of quite the crowd.

'Will might as well do introduce myself to my Master."

I thought to myself as I smirked and said.

"Servant Saber at your service Master I hope we can win this war Together."

Honestly the sarcasm in my voice should tell everyone how amused he was by this turn of events.

Why was he amused? There are many reasons.

One he got summoned by younger him, two his Class is a Saber which never happened before, three both Cu and Bazett were right the younger him and not killing him.

And lastly He can remember everything.

Whenever he gets summoned his memories get scrambled and it takes a while for him his memory but it doesn't effect his combat abilities and skills.

But he can remember Everything right away.

Which only happens when He gets summoned as a Counter Guardian.

But that's not possible since he is connected to the younger him he can feel it.

He had some theories but they had to wait for now because he still haven't finished his introduction.

And it was Cu who broke the silence.

"Not any guy I know, you seem pretty weak."

He shrugged his shoulders at his words holding back a cynical remark and said.

"I'm not the strongest but I am pretty skilled at what I do."

'No need to antagonize him right now plus they seem to be allies.'

His younger self finally broke out of his stupor and began talking but I interrupted before he say anything.

"I know you don't want the Holy Grail and I don't too, so don't worry about that."

His younger self left his mouth wide open before shutting it and said.

"Yes I only want to keep the casualties low."

Now this surprised him.

Keeping the casualties low?

Not wanting to save everyone?

He literally froze in place.

He broke out of his stupor and started to look this version of himself from top to bottom.

He felt nothing out of the ordinary.

Was him being his Servant already effecting his thinking?

Well that was for the better anyway.

He smiled and said to his younger self

"Then let's make sure to save as many people as possible Master."

The younger him nodded his head turned his and introduced him to what looked like their allies for this war.

"This is Bazett Fraga and this is Cu Chulainn."

His younger self stopped for a moment and said.

"I forgot to introduce myself my name is Emiya Shirou and can you stop calling me Master? It's kinda of embarrassing."

He nodded his head and thought for a moment.

'Should I tell them?'

The smart thing was to not tell them right away and hint at it slowly.

Then he remembered a soft voice in his head.

'Always stay true to yourself Emiya okay? And if don't I'll make sure you do'

The soft yet threatening voice of his old Master echoed inside his head.

He smiled for a moment and said.

'I'll do you one better Master.'

"My what a coincidence my name is also Emiya Shirou."

Their faces all showed surprised expressions and I continued.

"Your name is Emiya Shirou too?"

The surpriseed expression his younger self was worth a gold.

"No I'm just messing with you."

Now both his younger self and Bazett had dumbed founded expressions on their faces.

Cu mean while was laughing his ass off to the side.

Now let's tell them the truth as my face turned serious Cu stopped laughing seeing my expression and so did his younger self and Bezett once they got out of their stupor.

"My name is Emiya Shirou because I am your future self."

Now all the other three people in the room had stunned.

"You can't be serious your Shirou? And your from the future?"

Bezett said with a incredulous look on her face.

I nodded and said.

"Let me tell you my story…"

POV Shirou Emiya
Location: Fuyuki
Time: 2:00 AM

He couldn't almost believe it if Sab- his older self didn't tell.

He apparently summoned King Arthur Pendragon or Artoria since king Arthur was a woman apparently.

And he also summoned her when Cu was trying to kill him that part of the story made both Bazett and especially Cu made and called his older self a liar which he was on their side.

Until his older self said that Bazett wasn't the Master of Cu during his war but he did confirm that she did summon him to he told them about the priest.

Kotomine Kirei… he didn't want to talk to even think about him.

But Bazett did confirm that the priest did tell her to come let her summon once she got there so she won't be effected by the drain that having Servant needs but she did summon Cu early because she ran into trouble on her way so she needed help and decided to summon Cu because she already had his earrings already.

And after a while of him talking about the events of his war, he said something that caught my attention.

"Gilgamesh?"

I said as I looked at him.

He looked at me surprised and said.

"Yes the King Of Heroes Gilgamesh what wrong? You look like you have something to say"

He said as he looked my face that twisted into a frown.

'I have to make sure first'

I thought than asked him.

"Does he have blonde hair that looks golden and red eyes that almost look golden?"

His older self looked surprised at what he said and asked.

"Yes that's exactly how he looks how do you know?"

His older self questioned him but he hesitated for a moment then answered him.

"When I started working in Copenhagen five years ago a blonde man came in and called himself Gilgamesh. He asked for everything on the menu but that day both Mr Hotaruzka and Otoko were sick, so I had do everything by myself at that time."

"He said the food I made didn't compare to the food his chefs could and even gave me some pointers to help make him something he likes."

"After that day he comes by every two months and orders everything on the menu but he only allows me to cook for him saying that he will make sure that I can make food that match his chefs."

I looked at my older self who looked like the world had stopped making sense.

"I think you broke him."

Cu said as started waving his in front of my older self's face.

Bazett groaned at Cu's antics.

And I just remembered that it time Gil came back from his travels.

"By the way, He will come in tomorrow at 3:25 PM."

Bazett groaned louder and his older self is still not moving.

At the least Cu was taking it well.

POV EMIYA Saber
Location Fuyuki
Time 7:20 AM

I was looking at the younger me practicing the sword techniques I gave him and he was mastering them pretty quickly.

The reason he was learning so fast was because of the sword in his hands.

The sword was moving changing and adjusting to the technique and style that was used as if the weapon was alive.

And technically it was.

This is my Noble Phantasm.

[Unlimited Blade Works]

Technically this already happened before when I was summoned as Caster and Rider Classes but it only prompted my Reality Marble and made it abit stronger and easier to use.

But right now it appeared as a Two-Handed LongSword.

He had thought at first that this had been a down grade until he realized what it could do.

First he could project copies of it with almost zero effort. Which could be seen as everyone in the held one of its copies.

Second it could copy any ability or properties of the Noble Phantasms and Mystic Codes his Reality Marble have recorded inside of it. But it did take some effort to pull it off. But only he and the younger him could copy the skills and stats but his younger self had alot of difficulty with trying to copy skills and being unable to copy stats but we found a way to make it easier by letting him take them slowly which by his younger self words is massively easier than before.

Third he could feel what the sword did which felt weird at first until he got used to it, and by then he could feel, see, hear and smell through the sword.

And wasn't that interesting experience? He still couldn't understand how he could feel the younger him swinging him around or Bazett holding him while trying to imitate his younger self technique but having alot of difficulty but the sword adjusting to her needs and making easier to imitate his young self training and lastly Cu who was swinging his copy with practiced ease while it adjusted to his liking.

But to be honest he still preferred just materializing his reality Marble instead of making into a physical sword.

But it did have its advantages as he younger self has shown.

In his hands a long Odachi held in the air and a second later slashed the air two times.

His younger self was breathing heavily so I told him.

"That's enough training for now, anymore of this and your out cold."

His younger self looked annoyed and was about to protest but stopped once he saw the look on my face.

I checked the time on the clock on the wall and said.

"Your taking a break from school until we are done with this war."

He was about to protest again but I interrupted him and said.

"Whats better, your grades and possibly involving your school in this war or training and getting better prepared for this war."

He couldn't refute what said, and really is a few weeks of missing school that bad? He couldn't remember the time he had been in school but had been a great student and if he remembered correctly was studying law and politics.

This had made him smile a little at the thought of him as a politician.

He shook those thoughts of and told my younger self.

"Your gonna sleep right now and I'm waking you later."

His younger self looked confused at what he said but I continued him before he can say anything.

"You need to be energized when you go to meet him."

His gonna looked a little lost before nodded his head.

He started cleaning the room but I stopped him and said.

"No more work for you, I'll take care of everything until you wake up, now go rest."

He didn't say anything but his annoyed look told him that he was mad but he didn't care.

As his younger self went out of the dojo, I couldn't help but worry about meeting him again.

To be honest both of were forced to apologize for being mean to each other by their Master.

Neither one of us apologized.

And their Master was mad.

Wasn't that a fun time?

POV Emiya Shirou
Location Fuyuki
Time 4:00 pm

It had been half an hour since I into copenhagen came and started working as usual.

Well… abit unusual to be honest considering Bazett, Cu and his older self were all sitting at the same table.

His older self wanted to dematerialize, but after seeing Cu walking around and greeting people on the way, he sighed and went into a alleyway and came out with some simple clothing.

My boss Otoko also asked about my older self with a weird look on her face.

And after that she asked me if I had his number which made realize what that look meant.

I looked Awkwardly at her and said that I don't know which made her a little sad.

But it felt weird because she was basically asking for my number.

After that everything went by normally.

Until the front door opened.

Revealing a handsome blonde almost golden haired man with striking crimson red eyes, and as he came in two other people, a man and woman, came in behind him.

The handsome blonde man smirked and said in a proud and confident voice.

"The King of Uruk has arrived! And I must feast for this glorious day."

As he made his to one of the table he looked at the table the others were sitting at and chuckled at the face my older self was making.

And as he sat down, the man and woman finally became visible.

They were both wearing Priest and nun attire. The man had brown hair and was this sadistic grin on his face, and the woman looked who looked barely like a adult had white and this annoyed look on her face as she looked annoyed at the two people beside her.

I only looked at them for second before I nodded my head and started preparing his feast.

I heard him call at me but as I was about to answer I saw him looking at my older self.

"What are you waiting for chef? Your king needs a feast for our alliance against our enemies."

His older self just stopped moving entirely for a second before laughing out loud.

His older self looked at Gilgamesh and said.

" of course you can remember."

His older self stood up and said in sarcastic tone of voice.

"Why of course my king I wouldn't want to keep you waiting any longer for your feast!"

Time 4:50

After me and my younger self finished cooking, we set the food down and started eating but not before closing copenhagen.

Which made me feel worried about Otoko until she gave us a thumbs up and told us she knew about everything because Gilgamesh already told her a year ago.

Which made me look him as he smirked at me and after that he said something that made me think my ears were not working properly.

"Good job chef, You have improved immensely since the first time you started becoming my chef."

As he said those words I thought the whole world had stopped making sense.

I turned my head slowly looking at my younger self then at the food he made and took a bite.

I flabbergasted by the amazing taste and said.

"How… can you make something so delicious?"

My younger self started scratching his head and Gilgamesh answered for him in a smug voice.

"It's because his is my chef."

Time 5:00

After a while everyone finished eating and Gilgamesh started talking in a serious voice.

"Now that we finished the feast, I'll begin explaining our situation."

As he said the that everyone quieted and looked at him seriously, he nodded his head and continued.

"A family of magi managed to make their own grails, five grails and with those grails started grail wars all around the world."

Before I can even voice my disbelief at the absurdity that he was saying, he held his hand up so nobody can interrupt him.

"As I saying they made their own grails but they were broken, corrupted or they just blew up in their faces."

"But they did manage to make five working ones if want to even call them that, and those grails could allow summoning fifteen Servants."

Gilgamesh scoffed and continued.

"All they managed to summon were shadows of the heroic spirits they were trying to summon, those shadows were mindless and weren't even half as strong as the heroic spirits they were supposed to be."

Gilgamesh smirked and said.

"So someone had to be the Ruler Class in those grail wars"

I connected the dots in my head and said.

"You became the Ruler Class?"

His smirk became bigger when he heard my voice.

"Yes and I destroyed two of those grails and the last one is here."

"They managed to fuse the grail here with their own grail, which made a new mess we will have to deal with."

Gilgamesh looked at each of them seriously and said.

"What was originally seven Servants is now twenty-three."

I gaped at what he said.

"Seven of those will be like those shadows."

That was at the least was a relief.

"Now let's discuss over our plans for today."

POV Shirou
Location Fuyuki
Time 6:00

After a while of planning it could be summed up in a few words.

One is making the rest of the Servants on our side join us, and two start preparing because the family of magi will attack in full force in four days from now.

I suddenly felt a ominous sensation near ans then I heard a voice, his voice.

"Hello Emiya Shirou."

I turned my head and looked at him, the man my older self called many things that make me hate him a little.

The look he was giving me almost sent a shiver down my spine and greeted him back.

"Hello Mr Kotomine."

The man smiled at him, and then he took out a sheet of paper with something written on it from his clothes and gave it to me and said.

"This my favorite dish, and I hope you can make it to me in the future if that is possible."

I blinked at what he said and thought to myself.

'If that's what he wanted then why did he have that look on his face when asked for something simple.'

That's what I thought, until I looked at what was written on it.

I gulped involuntarily and looked at him, and said slowly.

"… I could make it.. but it would be so spicy that someone with a low spice tolerance die…"

As I said that, the smile on his face became even bigger, and he said.

"You don't have to worry about that, my spice tolerance is quite good if I do say so myself."

I nodded my head slowly and we parted ways and then I saw the white haired girl who Bazett told me her name is Caren and she was his daughter, and she was yelling at him with him giving one or two words that made her even more mad.

I shook my head and went towards my older self, who looked to be in his deep thoughts.

As I approached him, he turned his head towards me and after he saw my expression he asked.

"Is something wrong? You look little distressed."

I hesitated abit then silently gave him the sheet of paper without saying a word.

He looked abit confused at first, until he read what was written on it, and his face twisted a little.

He sighed and gave me it back to me and said.

"I already told you to be careful around that man, and I'll tell you, if he even does something remotely suspicious to use our link and tell me so I can come to protect you or use a command spell to call me to your side if I can't get there in time."

I nodded my head at his words and asked him a question that had been bugging me for a while now.

"…Hey I wanted to ask you a question if you don't mind."

My older self raised one of his eyebrows, and said.

"Sure ask whatever you need."

I hesitated and then said.

"Who was your last Master? You talk about her so often, that I got a little curious."

His older self had a fond look on his face, and told him.

"Once we finished the stuff here, I'll tell you all about her."

I nodded my head again, I heard Cu call out to me saying Bazett wanted to introduce me to Caren.

So I shared a nod with my older self and went towards them.

Time: 6:10 PM

After I reassured my younger self and warned him about Kotomine and then he was called over by the others so they could know each better.

I went back to thinking about how different things were going compared to his time in the Grail War.

First Bazett summoned Cu earlier than she did in his world which allowed her to survive but even than she might have lived even she if didn't summon Cu earlier considering how Kirei acting but you can never be sure when Kirei is involved.

Second his younger self can already use his Magic Circuits but his training was still informal which puzzled him to no end when he found out when they were training and made him question how that happened because the old man didn't want him to learn MageCraft and what changed so that he would actually teach his younger self even if it was informal.

As tried to think of what caused that to happen he felt a someone look at him so turned his and looked at Him.

The Ruler Class Servant looked at him with smug expression on his face as he looked down on him from where he was sitting.

My left eye twitched as I thought to myself.

'Of course you had something to do with it'

Did he tell the old man about what's going to happen in future? If so then when did he tell him?

He had many questions but very little answers which annoyed him greatly.

He sighed and scratched his head before he started thinking again but this time it's about the plan they had going.

He wanted to go to Rin and the Archer Servant she summoned instead of him but Gilgamesh said they were going to the Matou family first.

I honestly forgot about them until Gilgamesh mentioned them which he reprimanded himself for forgetting about them.

The for getting them on their side was 'simple' if you want to call it that to the point I questioned if the others Masters might attempt to intervene but Gilgamesh said they didn't have to worry about it without elaborating further even when I asked him about it.

The first part of the plan is revolved around his younger self basically 'kidnapping' Sakura and bring her to the church where Gilgamesh and Kirei will deal with the shattered fragments of the previous Grail War and deal with the rest of the parasitic worms Zouken put into her body.

His younger self questioned them about the worms loudly but I told him that I will explain it to him once they have some time.

And the second part of the plan after they get Sakura in the church, where both me and Cu will go to the Matou residence and with Zouken.

I doubted that it will work at first but after mulling it over for a abit the only thing that concerned me was that Kirei might do something but calmed down when Bazett said that she wanted to help his younger self 'kidnapping' Sakura and keep a eye on Kirei because she didn't trust him anymore after I told her about what happened to her in my world.

After a while of thinking things through, I sighed and went towards my younger self.

He looked abit out of it but overall was enjoying the conversation between him, Bazett and Caren and Cu on the side picking ears which made me smile at their antics.

As I got near them his younger self noticed me coming near them and looked at me.

I looked at him seriously and asked him.

"Are you ready?"

He stiffened a little before looking at me with a serious expression of his own and answered me.

"I'm ready."

Time 6:50 PM

I sighed as I sat down on the bench and looked around me as I waited for Sakura to arrive.

I couldn't stop a shiver going down my spine from the park and couldn't help myself from wondering why he had to meet Sakura here of all places.

He sighed again and continued waiting for Sakura to come.

After a while of waiting a strong horrible smell entered my nostrils which almost made me vomit everything inside of my stomach.

I suddenly felt a pair of cold hands gently holding my hands and then I heard mesmerizing yet commanding voice say something to me.

"Hello there my dear, you seem to be in pain."

Her voice was soft but it had a hollow feeling.

I opened my eyes but everything was blurry and I barely saw her take one of her hands back and grabbed something and then put it in my hand.

"Here eat this, it should should help you."

I did as she told me and slowly the horrible smell was gone as I breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the lady who helped me.

She had brown skin and green eyes with long black hair and she was wearing a beautiful dark blue dress.

She had a regal look with a kind smile plastered on her face.

But the most odd thing about her is the completely empty feeling surrounding her as if everything about her is not there and being controlled by something.

A shivered went down my spine as I heard her speaking.

"Are you feeling better my dear?"

I nodded my head slowly and she had a happy expression on her face but it was empty.

She closed her eyes and stood up.

She then opened her eyes slowly and smiled at me and said.

"I hope we can meet again under better circumstances."

She turned around and started walking away.

As she got near the entrance to the park, she turned her head toward him and smiled creepily at him.

She turned her head back and continued walking, until she reached the park entrance and suddenly disappeared.

My brain didn't know what to make of that and said the first thing that popped into my head.

"What…?"

Time 7:00 PM

It has been some time since I met that woman and I can still feel my nose burn from the horrible smell when she got near me.

I tried breathing in and out but the weird sensation in the air that was the park wasn't helping me breathe.

I really hated this park and wanted to get out of here.

A vein inside my head throbbed as I felt a memory flash in my head.

At was a white room that had a symbol on one of the walls of the room.

The room didn't have alot of things in it with the most prominent thing being the bed.

On the bed was girl huddled up crying as she wrapped the blanket around herself.

She was mumbling about not wanting to be here or that she wasn't meant for this.

I want to go help her or at the least give her some comfort.

But I couldn't move or do anything.

The first time this happened he didn't know why he was getting these random flashs memories.

When he asked his older self he said that I was accidentally using the copy of his sword to trace the history inside of it.

He is currently the sword on the wall looking at the girl crying and and he couldn't even say anything to help her which made him feel even worse.

He then heard knocking on the metal door and a feminine voice came from the other side.

"Senpai… are you inside…? I wanted to know if you're okay."

Once the girl on the bed heard the voice on the other side of door she stopped crying and got of her bed said.

"Yes, I'm here Mash."

The girl looked to be in her late teens with shoulder length red hair that looked messy and light orange eyes that looked red because she was crying for so long.

She was barely standing up and with restraint said.

"I'm okay…"

Her voice was barely above a whisper to the point he wasn't sure the person on the other sude of the door heard her.

The person on the other side did saying anything for a few seconds before asking.

"Can you open the door..? I want to talk to you… please."

The girl looked at the door for a few seconds before slowly moving towards the door.

She hesitated as she got near the door and she started shaking a little.

"Senpai… it's okay I come by a another time."

The person on the other side of the said in a sad tone of voice as they prepared to leave.

The girl stopped moving for before she opened the door.

On the other side was a girl with short lilac hair and lavender eyes who had surprised expression on her face and said.

"Senpai…?"

After that everything blurred out and he was back sitting on the bench in park.

He rubbed his eyes for second then he heard a voice call out to him.

"Senpai…?"

He open his eyes and saw her standing before him.

He stood up and called out to her.

"Sakura!"

He didn't know why he was yelling.

She looked abit confused at me for yelling and said you me.

"Are you okay Senpai? You said you wanted to talk to me."

I nodded my head and said in serious tone.

"I don't time to explain everything but can you come with me please?"

She looked surprised but calmed down and answered me.

"Yes I can come with you but I can't stay for long I have to do something at home."

Her voice was Devoid of emotion in the last part when she started to talk about having to go home.

I wanted to say more or to ask her about what happened to her but I might ruin the planif do that.

I steeled myself and grabbed her hand and said.

"Then let's hurry we can't leave them waiting."

She looked like she wanted to say more but I already started running to to entrance of the park.

She looked to be having hard time keeping up with me and yelled to me.

"Slow down senpai I can't keep up with you!"

I continued running while holding her hand and said.

"I'm sorry Sakura but we have to go as fast as possible."

She looked confused at what I was saying but she then nodded her and said.

"Okay I'll run as fast as I can."

I smiled at her then put my hand in my pocket and grabbed the knife that was inside of it.

I wasn't a great Magi much less Spellcaster so I couldn't use my connection to Archer to send him messages that well so we thought of a alternative way.

Since he can feel what's up with the sword copy we discussed that we use this as a signal so he know when I bring Sakura to the church.

Once I enter will change the sword back to its normal form and him and Cu will do the other part of the plan.

Now the only thing I have to do is get to the church and send the signal.

I felt the signal that me and younger self set up trigger when my younger self turn the copy of my sword to back to normal.

I turned my head towards Cu and said.

"My younger self did the first part of the plan."

He was leaning on a wall and smirked at me and said.

"Finally I thought we're going to stay here forever."

I nodded my head and said in a serious tone of voice.

"Come on let's not mess up our part of the plan."

He started laughing and said.

"You wouldn't have to about me just look out for yourself."

30 swords floating behind me in a circle rotating at high speeds.

I chuckled and said.

"Then let's burn down the vile Worms."

Location Fuyuki (Matou estate)
Time 7:15 PM

As me and Cu got near the door of the Matou estate, one of the swords floating around me started spinning and went flying towards the door and as it reached the door it exploded blowing up the front door and the walls.

Cu whistled and said.

"Not bad at all."

I rolled my eyes at his words and continued walking as we got inside.

As we got past what was left of front door, we came face to face with the residents of the mansion.

In front of us stood a tall woman with purple hair who i knew was Rider and her was cold as stone and standing behind her shaking was a guy with messy hair that looked like seaweed holding a book that I identified as Shinji.

Suddenly a croaked figure appeared behind Shinji that can be best described as withering Sack of bones that I instantly knew was Zouken.

Zouken looked at us both with creepy smile but the fear was clear in his eyes, he was about to say something but Cu interrupted him with a lazy expression on his face.

"Well wasn't that rude a entrance."

Cu was scratching his ears on the side which relaxed Zouken little probably thinking that we weren't here to fight him.

I stepped forward and said with expressionless look on my face.

"Rider you and your Master will be given a choice of choosing to side with us and help with the incoming battles."

Zouken face soured and Shinji twisted and then he looked at Zouken waiting for him to speak, while Rider face didn't change for a second.

Zouken tried to say something but I interrupted him.

"We ca-"

"I wasn't talking to you, I was speaking with her."

Zouken looked annoyed but he stopped in his place when he figured out what I meant.

Rider mouth twitched as she also realized what I meant.

Shinji was still looking scared throughout all of this.

Rider suddenly spoke.

"Is she okay?"

I nodded my head.

She let out a sign of relief.

She then looked at me and said.

"I accept your offer."

I smiled and then turned to Cu.

"You know the plan."

He smiled and said.

"Finally some action."

He then got into a battle stance as he pointed his spear at Rider and said.

"Don't take to heart will you?"

He then launched himself at Rider with blinding speed.

Rider barely managed to dodge his attack and retaliated with a kick.

As Cu and Medusa fought both Zouken and Shinji scrambled away from the fight.

The swords that are flying around me to shift and as they shifted they launched at Zouken with bullet speeds.

Mid air they turned to Black Keys.

Two of the swords stabbed the floor where Zoukens shadow was and three others stabbed into Zouken himself.

"Aaaah!"

I ignored Zouken screaming in pain as the black keys impeded into him and l launched myself towards Shinji as the sword in my hand transformed into a small jagged dagger.

The turned into Rule Breaker.

Shinji couldn't even see me as I stabbed the book of false attendant in his hands.

I can feel the contract of a master amd servant through the book of attentant break.

I grabbed the book of false attendant from Shinji's and told him.

"Get out of here if you want to live."

He looked horrified and angry, he wanted to say something but I glared at him scaring him .

He turned around and ran outside of the Matou estate through the hole the I blasted through.

I didn't look at him as I focused back on Cu and Medusa fighting.

"You both can stop now you know?"

Cu huffed and leaned on his spear and said.

"You didn't have to be such a kill joy."

I rolled my eyes at him and looked at Medusa who barely standing up.

"I will use the book of false attendant for now to link you to me and my master so he can support you because your old master is in a critical condition that we can't mess up now."

Medusa looked annoyed but nodded her head after a few seconds.

I mentally notified my younger self to get ready and I got a reply from him saying he was ready.

"Trace On…"

I felt the connection between me and my younger self expanding as it added Medusa into it.

I felt weaker but Medusa looked like she finally can breathe normally again.

"Aaaahh—"

Where Zouken was yelling was stopped by Cu stabbing Gae Bolg through his neck shutting him up.

"Oh shut up you whining pile of worms."

I went beside Cu who still had Gae bolg stabbed in Zoukens neck told him.

"We should hurry, no need for us to delay anymore."

Cu nodded his head and took Gae bolg out of Zoukens neck.

"Yeah I know just send those fancy swords of yours, I'll follow them."

I nodded my head and made twenty more swords that flew in the air and after making them I was a little tired.

I then looked at Medusa who looked confused and said to her.

"Can you lead Cu and my swords to the worm pits so we can destroy it?"

She said nothing for a second before saying.

"I can."

I nodded my head and told her.

"Then you both should go and destroy the worm pits."

She frowned and said.

"And what will you do?"

I turned my head towards Zouken and said.

"Deal with him permanently."

Medusa looked at me for a second before nodding her and running towards one of the doors.

Cu wordlessly followed her and lastly my swords followed them.

I looked down at Zouken and frowned at him.

"Trace On."

In my hands now are a Bible and A black key.

I opened the bible and slowly started praying.

The door got smashed down as Medusa and Cu went in and following them were the swords that were flying after them.

Cu put his on his mouth and nose and said in a muffled voice.

"Uhh this is so disgusting."

Medusa nodded her head and then asked Cu.

"How are we gonna destroy the worm pits?."

Cu smirked and said.

"Easy, through these."

One of the swords that were flying went towards Cu and he grabbed it.

Medusa looked confused until Cu thrown the sword inside the worm pits and exploded in bright light.

Medusa's mouth opened a little bit as she realized what the bright light was.

And Cu grabbed another sword and threw it inside of the worm pits and it exploded in with fire everywhere.

Cu then looked at Medusa and said.

"Easy enough?"

Medusa didn't say anything but grabbed one of the swords that were floating around her and looked at it.

"Yeah… easy enough."

She the threw it at the worm pits making a explosion of flames.

Cu then smiled and said.

"Alright, then let's burn this place down."

As we got inside of the church I pulled out the knife in my pocket and changed it back into a sword.

I then suddenly felt Sakura stopped moving and turned around to look at her.

As looked I found Bazett holding a unconscious Sakura.

"Baze—!?"

I was about to say something before she interrupted me.

"She won't want to stay awake when we remove the worms from her."

I closed my mouth as she said that when I realize what she was saying true.

"I… You're right… but couldn't we just ask her?"

Bazett shook her head and started explaining to me.

"I have dealt with Magi before and Zouken from what Saber has said would probably keep some sort of way to spy on her which would make our plan fail."

I sighed and looked around for the others.

"Are they waiting for us?"

Bazett nodded her head and asked.

"Did you give the signal?"

I nodded my head as heard someone calling out to us.

"Hey! Let's hurry we don't have alot of time here!"

I turned around and looked Caren who was yelling at us near church's back door.

Bazett picked up Sakura and put her on her shoulder and started walking towards the back door.

I followed them silently as they walked towards the rooms in the back.

As we neared one of the rooms I saw Kirei come out.

He looked at us and nodded his head.

As Caren got inside of the room and me and Bazett got near the door Kirei held his hand up and said.

"You both should stay out while deal with rest of the stuff."

He was about to grab Sakura but Bazett held his hand and said.

"I'll come in to make sure nothing bad happens."

Kirei looked at her for second before nodding his head.

Bazett let go of his hand went in and put Sakura on one of the beds inside of the room.

As I was about to get inside Kirei looked at me and said.

"You might mess something up if stay and watch what's going to happen so you stay outside."

I was about to protest. Bazett looked at me and said.

"I'll make sure nothing happens so don't worry."

I looked at for second before nodding my head.

As I was anxiously waiting while looking at the door my my mind was wondering at what happened at the park.

The creepy woman with brown skin and the green eyes and blue dress.

My stomach hurt remembering what happened there.

And what was the thing she made me eat?

I grabbed my stomach in abit of fear.

Suddenly I felt exhaustion that made me fall to my knees.

I was barely able to stand back up from where I fell down.

I remembered this part of the plan.

Now my older self made a temporary contract with Rider so there will be no strain on Sakura while they take out the worms.

I grabbed the wall next to me for support as barely was able to stand up still.

After a few minutes of waiting I heard the door opened and Kirei get out of the room.

I almost missed it but he smiled at me for a second before he hidden it with a calm expression on his face.

He stepped way from the door letting me get inside.

As I got near it he told me.

"You should rest for now seeing you barely standing up from supplying two Servants at the same time."

I shook my head and said with exhaustion clear in my voice.

"I have to… make sure she's okay…"

He smiled as he looked at my tired form and walked away without saying anything else.

When I got inside I saw Sakura on the bed with a table near her that had surgical equipment and on another bed was both Caren and Bazett sitting on it with faces filled with disgust.

As I got near them Bazett looked at me and said.

"She's… Okay right now."

I looked at the sleeping form Sakura.

She looked… peaceful as she slept.

Caren got up and said.

"We should leave and let rest for now."

She then looked at me and said.

"You too because you look like you're gonna fall unconscious any minute."

I nodded my head and looked at Sakura one last time before leaving the room followed by Bazett and Caren.

My mind went to my older self wondering if he finished his part of the plan.

Then I remembered Shinji…

My older self said Shinji doesn't matter only the mystic code that he used to control Rider.

I wonder if he is okay…

I fell to my knees and cursed out loud.

"FUCK!"

My breath Hitched as I looked at the ground.

I slammed my hand against the ground and started yelling out loud.

"This wasn't supposed to happen!"

"I was supposed to win the war!"

"I was supposed to get the grail wish!"

I suddenly smelled the most disgusting smell I ever smelled before.

My stomach emptied itself as threw up on the ground underneath me.

I heard a voice near me say something.

"My my… You Matou's are really disgusting."

As I turned around and looked at a woman.

She had brown skin and green eyes and was wearing a blue dress.

She let out a chuckle and said.

"And that's really ironic coming from me of all people."

She then looked at me and said.

"Utterly pathetic… honestly I expected something out of you."

Anger filled my heart as I looked at her.

She sighed and snapped her fingers.

Many hooded figures popped up out of nowhere and started kneeling.

She turned around and said.

"Throw him to the Caster pit so he can actually be useful."

As finished one of the hooded figures went towards me and lifted his hand up about to hit me.

My life flashed before my eyes and before I can do anything his came down straight to my head.

The last thing I heard was the woman chuckles.
