Pine Garden
Kotomine_Rin:
Vega
His expression widened, the man was pinned like a butterfly in a storm, the force alone making his arm scream. He tried pulling away, but-
"Kuh!" Her fingers slammed into his ribs with a violent crack. The taste of blood filled his throat, and his body flinched down for a moment.
But his rage filled eyes promised retaliation. His free arm swept to her face, but it was his foot that struck like a viper, litterally like a blade to cut her one free leg off. At the same time, the fingers of his pinned hand moved to slice her arm, however shallow the cut.
Aiden:
Mira
What Vega so rudely discovered was this: Mira was more durable than him. He could manage the most shallow of scrapes with his pinned hand, his well-maintained nails serving some purpose. She didn't notice it as the pain was swept away in adrenaline and energy, in the focus required for her to push his free hand aside and escape. She could have taken the hit to her leg and kept going... maybe.
Mira wasn't so arrogant as to take that risk, and so rather than be struck she sacrificed her grasp on her opponent and swiftly put distance between them. Just a meter, just enough for her to remove all openings from her stance.
Thus freed, she grinned in fierce excitement.
Vega noticed pain from his wrist.
Kotomine_Rin:
Vega
Vega wasted no time pulling away as soon as the force released him, then grabbed his left wrist, if only to observe the damage. His bare chest was heaving, and his heart roared like a war drum. And yet, when he saw the marking of her hand on his body, he felt nothing. But this was bad, that woman nearly broke him. Nearly broke Vega.
Haah...haaah...hah...hahahaha.
The crimson paint on his finger was the one reassurance to his spirit. He had thought her a merely strong human, but he was wrong. What was before him was no different than the beast of a corrida. No, compared to the beast he fought earlier, this one was truly an unearthly storm of power. He had to acknowledge, respect it a little. It was no different than when he was a boy, still fresh and unrefined. His first bull was just like this, an impossible wall of speed, fierceness and power. And just like back then, he had lost the first round.
Before her, he was just a boy, laid bare. And just like back then, his heart beat like the storm.
"Fear is something that must be crushed." He lifted his mask enough for her to see his lips, resolved in a confident smile. And with that change of expression, the music of his heart changed too. He smiled. That way, he would not forget her own mortality... or his own. When it dropped back, Vega took a different stance, and swept the shirt he worse before him, as if it were a wall between the girl and him.
"Come on darling~ Shall you lead this dance?"

He frowned as he saw instead of a mismatched violet and aquamarine eye, two very familiar aquamarine eyes looking up at him.
His eyes widened and he almost let her fall to the ground, catching himself at the last moment.
"What do you think you were doing, telling her all that at once! It was too much for her to take in! You idiot!"
Emiya felt his normally fire-is-my-blood run cold.
The voice was wrong. The face was wrong. The hair was wrong. The body was wrong.
The eyes, the words, and the body language were all too familiar.
Emiya the former Archer Class Servant found himself standing there like a goddamn potato staring at a girl from his past. Or rather multiple girls from his past. How . . . how is that even possible?
So, he stood there, a good couple of heart beats with his mouth set in a grim line and staring at . . . this amalgam young woman. He shook his head and said in a slow voice, "Tohsaka?"
His cat chortled, walked over, and rubbed his cheek against Emiya's leg while purring in response.

Rin
"Hmmph. It's good to know you're faster on the uptake than a certain other Shirou, Archer."
She crossed her arms, but a wry smile came onto her face. It was mischievous, catlike.
"It's good to see you again, Emiya."
Elf:
Emiya
The cat that was the young woman's family namesake looked at Rin with narrowed green eyes and the bored disinterest that a cat could only muster. He then proceeded to twirl around Emiya's legs while purring. Almost absently, Emiya bent down to pick up the cat, feeling soothed almost instantly as the animal lightly rubbed his head against the former Servant's chin.
"I grew up, learned a lot of hard, painful lessons harder than I should have, but I was pretty dense," he replied as he stroked the cat's sleek, black fur.
He sighed and said, "It would be good to see you if you weren't in Sakura's body, Rin."
