"See, Toe has it covered, stop worrying. There's no guarantee he'll even be there." Iri began to lead Sakura to the dining room.

Rin

"Everything's just fine now."

Rin blinked and held Sakura tighter.  She grinned and said, "Well tomorrow we're going to get some of your Faust's money and go out and have some fun.  You can show me around Nexus and maybbbeee some shopping."

She then sighed and set her satchel of gems on the table.  "Maybe there's a jewelry store that sells loose gems that won't gouge me an arm and a leg."


Abigail

Abigail laughed and said, "Come on, I'll show you.  You grabbed razors right?"

"Yeah, I know where a few are, actually. I'll be sure to take you there tomorrow!" She smiled. "It'll be loads of fun."

Rin

Rin nodded and said, "Good, I look forward to it!"  She nudged her sister and asked, "So, do you want to team up and completely defeat your boyfriend in the kitchen?"

Sakura

"Boyfriend huh..." Sakura mused over these words. She hadn't really been able to allow herself to think in those terms for the past few years.

"Boyfriend..." She tested it out on her tongue. "Boy-fr-iend." She said it slowly, savoring the sound as if it were a songbird singing sweetly in her ears. "Yeah."

"I guess—he really is my boyfriend, isn't he? Nee-san, can you—pinch me?"

LANCELOT

The enemy threw themselves at him, clogging the cramped tunnels with sheer number, and the berserker tore into them with wild abandon. Flesh was cleaved from bone, bodies hacked in two, and blood painted the walls in a testament to savage violence. Glowing yellow balls and floating mechanical constructs started to appear around him, but he paid them no heed.

Just as the assault was winding down, a loud noise from behind got his attention. Lancelot whirled to see a massive serpentlike creature with a mouth of two enormous blades, like scissors preparing to slice through Saber as though she were a sheet of paper. The tunnel’s frame cracked and buckled against its monstrous strength.

With a primal shriek of rage, the dark knight charged this new enemy, only to be fired upon by the floating objects. He reflexively dropped to the floor and rolled, evading the majority of the scorching blue light as the beams cut through the air above him. One laser from above hit him in the arm, just above the elbow, slagging the dark armor but not quite penetrating deep enough to deal serious damage. In an instant he was back on his feet, continuing his mad dash at the bladed snake - and ran right into a glowing yellow orb.

Pain wracked his body as the orb delivered a vicious shock, causing him to reel back. A second volley of beams came down on the berserker, and on pure reflex forced his body to jerk to the side, upsetting his balance but avoiding the worst of the damage. Even so, half a dozen streaks of blue bit into his armor and seared at his flesh. The pain would have had a lesser man on his knees.

Lancelot seemed to not notice.

The dark knight continued his charge, slicing through the two drones that happened to be in the way but ignoring the rest, in favor of rushing the beast Saber was fighting. With a roar of fury so intense it could only be brought about by madness, the berserker cleaved into the creature with all the mindless power his former servant class was known for, yet these were coordinated, precise strikes, designed to carve open as much flesh as possible as quickly as possible. The air spun around his corrupted sword madly as the blade’s strikes grew near to the sound barrier.

The park

The pool of lava and burning earth, the scar born by the park where Vanguard and that nameless woman fought, was now slowly cooling down. Shards of molten metal glowed blue and burst in smoke.

Slowly but surely, the metal was crumbling to nothing and vanishing like an illusion.

Before long, there was no longer any trace of that strange material, as if it was never there to begin with.


Vanguard

Booming steps left dust clouds wherever it passed trough, cold metal feet showing no mercy to the stone ground. It was getting closer, closer...

"Greetings." A booming voice suddenly echoed behind Rider. A great shadow loomed ominously over her. A great body of metal gleamed, a blue orb looked down upon her from the top of a tower of metal. This imposing figure....

He was back in top notch condition.

A WILD VANGUARD APPEARED

But before he could do anything else, he noticed something. Or rather, someone.

"Is that... Emiya Shirou?"

Tar

Every fiber of Henry's being was telling him to run away, and he showed as much on his expression; but beneath it, gears were turning in Tar's primum, accounting for possibilities and running risk calculations. With a hint of desperation, he processed what was unfolding in front of them; from Lancelot's rampage to the increasing number of other hazards in the scene.

"STOP FIRING!" Henry yelled at Noel, leveling a harsh expression at her. With his eyes, he seemed to scream 'I have a plan'. Or at least, that was what he was trying to do.

Once the great serpentine abomination appeared, everything pointed to one chance to get out of this mess. Despite Saber standing in his way and Noel attacking, Lancelot had prioritized the monsters. The unchained didn't know if there was any way the man's seemingly unnatural fury would cease once every actual threat was gone, but if it came to that, he had a way to deal with the black knight. But first off, the damn elite who was more than she seemed needed to freaking stop trying to murder Lancelot.

Then Henry saw the colossus charge Lancelot, who charged in return, and momentarily feared both he and Saber would get splattered.

Ignis

The moment the police officer dodged, Ignis returned to her normal form.  She turned around only to see a car flying toward her.  It slammed into her torso, sending her flying backwards.  Her arms began retracting on impact, releasing the swordsmen.  Her body landed in a wall of a building nearby.

Sakura

Sakura smiled as Togan offered to keep an eye out for Shirou and, if he was there, keep him safe.

I guess that would be OK, as long as he can be trusted.

Sakura thought for a moment about how best to describe Shirou, before remembering that she had photographs of him on her phone.

Before she could take the phone out, though, Irisviel started to pull her towards the dining room.

"See, Toe has it covered, stop worrying. There's no guarantee he'll even be there", she said.

Sakura, however, did not move just yet.

"Hang on, he doesn't know what Shirou looks like", Sakura said.

 After Iri assented, she let go of Iri's hand and began walking towards Togan, unlocking her phone as she did.

"He has fading red hair, brown eyes and he's really handsome and brave. He fights with swords that he creates out of thin air, a bow that fires swords and a hunting rifle", she said as she approached him.

"Here you go, here's a picture", she said, holding up the phone, showing him her background photo.

On it was a family picture, Sakura with all of her children, her sister, her servant Rider and, of course, Shirou. She pointed to him.

"This is him. You promise you'll protect him, right? No matter what? If you let him die, I'll never forgive you", she said, clearly very worried about the possibility of Shirou being harmed.

She let him look at the picture for a few moments, before putting her phone back and returning to Irisviel. As she was walking back, she had another thought, and turned to address Togan again.

"Oh, the other purple-haired woman in the photo is called Rider. I doubt she'll be there, but if you do see her, please tell her that I'm here and where to find me. And, please don't hurt her either", she added.

Rin

Rin laughed and said, "I'm not going to pinch you Sakura, that's just mean.  However, everything's real though.  I promise."

She lifted her finger, showing the white, almost healed line of the cut she had made to help repair the dishes.  "See?"


Saber

Saber kicked on Invisible Air, pointing her sword behind her to let it propel her forward at breakneck speeds before swinging the still glowing Excalibur into position.  In her ear she heard that all too familiar bellow of Lancelot's rage and that Noel was attacking him.  If the situation hadn't been as dire, she would have smacked the other girl down in her friend's defense.

As it where, Lancelot was charging at the creature with incredible fury.

Saber ducked her trajectory and pivoted, aiming her holy blade under the thing's chin before thrusting upward with all of her prana infused might.

Sakura

Sakura pinched herself as hard as she could. "Ow!" She exclaimed as she began to laugh and cry. "Haha-hahaha-I'm so happy! I'm  so happy that this is real! I really can't believe it! It's not just a dream anymore!"

Rin

Rin flinched as Sakura pinched herself.  She walked over to her sister and said, "Don't do that,  you're going to give yourself bruises and Shirou's going to wonder what happened and blame himself that you got hurt."

KOTOMINE KIREI

It didn’t take the priest long to find what he was looking for. “Torpedo cars”, they were referred to, massive factory lined ladles on train cars where liquid metal was poured in and shipped out. It was fortunate they were unharmed, it would be easy to ship the goods to a relatively safe location by train. Now he just needed to fill it.

Kirei stepped out of the loading area and back into the facility, only to be confronted by the Halloweener’s troll, now heavily injured, and for some reason now had business with him. The man in robes gave the supernatural being a cold, emotionless stare before the corner of his mouth turned up in a smirk.

“You know not what you do. But fear not, for God still has one use for you,” he said, one hand coming out from behind his back to make a grand sweeping gesture. At that, the floor beneath the troll opened, and numerous appendages, black as death itself, reached up to latch onto the unfortunate victim and pull him beneath the surface, out of sight. There was a sound of ripping flesh and screaming, which stopped just as suddenly as it started. Kotomine turned on his heel and continued on his way to the furnace itself, leaving only two holes in the floor.

Tohuw Balagan

That's pink...

Tohuw nodded in understanding, analyzing the photo carefully. It was a piece of cake.

"Yes, yes. I can do it, no problem there. But there is a small issue."

The demon's eyes suddenly narrowed and he gave a devilish smirk.

"You don't expect me to do all of this for free, do you?"
