Archer had kept his silence for the entire walk to the hotel, focusing mostly on making sure that Hakuno got some rest. But he did pay attention to the two women conversing, and he did have his own thoughts on various aspects.

First of all, it seemed that the Shirou of Rider's world was doing quite well for himself, and had abandoned the life of a hero for raising a family of his own with Sakura. He certainly couldn't begrudge him for that choice. Even if Archer didn't feel as much regret about the life he had lead as he once had, thanks to Hakuno, he was still glad that there was a version of him out there that'd been able to avoid walking down the path that Archer himself had.

But then there was Sakura... Archer had gone his entire life without knowing what had happened to her. Even after all these years, it caused a pang in his gut. But there was nothing he could do about it now, making it nothing more than another regret among numerous other regrets. This one hit him just a tad bit harder though. He was also surprised that Rider was so willing to be so open about Sakura's past, but it seemed that she mostly hadn't been thinking, and apologized for it shortly after.

It seemed that the vampire Forest had experienced trauma of her own in the distant past. He wondered what else she'd seen and experienced throughout her long life. While he didn't intend to dig up painful memories, he was curious about Forest's past, and considered asking her about it some time. Even if he never did, he certainly was going to ask about how her particular type of vampire worked, if nothing else.

The trio reached the hotel, but something was amiss. Archer could feel something wrong in the air, but it was more than that. He had to go off of tiny details, but he suspected that Forest was in some sort of pain. The vampire was tense in general, which wasn't a good sign.

"Bugger, something's very wrong there." With that, Forest took off for the hotel at a run, heading straight for it with tremendous speed.

Archer found himself conflicted. Whatever was attacking the hotel needed to be eliminated for everyone's safety. However... Archer's number one priority was his Master's own safety. Not fighting could make it so the threat remained, but if he stayed, then he could be placing Hakuno's life in danger. Hakuno would order him to go straight for the hotel if she was awake, that he knew for certain. That didn't mean it was necessarily the best plan.

Still, before he made a decision, he needed to see what he was up against. Forest's reaction seemed to imply that this was no small threat, but he needed to see for himself before he decided on a course of action. Archer gave Rider a quick glance before running towards the hotel himself, even now making sure that Hakuno still rested comfortably in his arms.

Oh. I see....

Hearing the girl's reply, Kiyoshi felt bad about what he'd said previously. Whilst she had been extremely nasty to him, and her assertion that he required protection from a blind, wheelchair bound magicless girl who was three years younger than him was downright laughable, he had been extremely thoughtless in his initial attitude to her. Her brother was fighting for his life in order to ensure they could escape, and he'd just blindly ignored that, asking questions about the fate of his own mother that were entirely for his own interest. He didn't blame her for being upset, even if she had massively over-reacted.

As annoyed as he still was with the girl for the way she'd reacted to his genuine attempts to reach out to her, now wasn't the time to stick the knife in. The girl was evidentially hurting quite badly. She believed her brother was most likely dead. She a vulnerable young girl in need of emotional support and, however much she had upset him, he simply couldn't bear to make her suffer any more, sister or not.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I was just trying to get to know you better, and to make you feel more comfortable around me. Asking what I did when your brother was in danger was thoughtless of me, and I'm sorry for that.", Kiyoshi said softly.

"As for your brother, I'm sure he'll be fine. He seems pretty strong to me, and I'm sure that once we're safe he'll be able to defeat the monster without worry, or if not escape from it with that invisibility trick he used before. I'm sure he will do everything he can to come back to you", he said, trying as hard as he could to console and reassure the girl.



Rider listened to Forest attempt to, presumably, tell her off for not just obeying her master's orders without question, thinking how best to rebutt that criticism without coming across badly. However, before she could finish speaking, Forest suddenly looked in her direction and said "Bugger, something's very wrong there."
Then, Forest set off running at top speed in the direction of the hotel.

Shit! Kiyoshi's in there!

Without even stopping to consider what the danger might be, or whether there was any real danger at all, Rider set off at maximum speed, rapidly catching the blonde. She simply couldn't risk allowing anything to happen to Sakura's son.

However, whilst she couldn't afford to waste even a moment, any information she could get about the situation was still helpful. So, as she ran past Forest, she shouted a simple question, hoping the blonde would be able to hear it despite the speed they were both travelling at.

"What is it?"

"it's not that kind of fight Kiyoshi, there's no winning even when my brother survives Angra manyu the spirit will continue to torment my brother and others." Taiga remarked as they reached the lobby.

Lancer eyed the poor little redheaded lass with the dark eyes who was glaring daggers at Rin.  Aye, he could tell that there was some fire in that one, and a lot of determination.  He'd seen that edge before, that ferocious need to prove oneself.  He had it as a child and he had ran off before hearing the full of that druid's prophecy. 

Yes, he had obtained fame and become a hero, but he had also died ridiculously early too.  He wondered if it had something to do with Gae Bolg.  After Scathach gifted him with it with the intention to kill her, his life had fallen.  Emer was won, but his attentions wandered but yet she stayed by his side no matter who's bed he returned home from.  Then there was his son, dead by his own hands because he was too arrogant to listen.

He shook the dark thoughts off and smiled at the young woman.  He bowed his head to her and said, "I'm sure Fore can find a place for you.  You just have to earn your keep.  She doesn't like freeloaders."  He waggled his finger in the girl's face with a smile, crimson eyes dancing. 

"Yet she keeps you," Archer said, folding his arms across his chest.

Lancer glared and said, "Hey, I earn my keep.  I help protect this city from all sorts of nasty beasts."

"So you project your bloodlust in a positive manner for once," Archer said with a smirk before looking at the girl.  He said, "Are you sure she can keep up with you, Rin?"

"Archer is a giant cunt and you should ignore every word that falls from his fucking mouth," Lancer said with a hard grin towards the corrupted Servant."

Rider went barreling past, shouting, "What is it?"

Her speed was nothing short of remarkable, and windows shook from the force of it.  In fact, Rider's speed was resembling closer to something from a comic book character than the forty to fifty Forest could clock on foot in a dead run.  Before she could answer, a figure dressed in heavy dark armor was thrown from the hotel and into the street. 

The figure had ashen blond hair and a car crumpled as if it was made with tissue when it collided with it.  Then, the figure began to wander into the night.  Forest shouted back at Rider, "Go to the hotel, get the boy, I'm going to go after Sir Black Knight!"

She then changed trajectory, heading for the massive form in black armor.

Satoshi  trampled down the street somewhat carelessly, he ignored the stares of people as his armour clamored loudly crushing concrete sidewalks, road work and parking meters alike as he kept searching for a useful spot, he barely managed to notice the blonde vampire who had begun to chase him down.

he honestly couldn't care if she had a problem. 'she could always summon that guy who can stop me though, now what was his name? Oh that's right Michael Mcdoesn'texist' he thought silently chuckling.

Forest winched inwardly at the innate destruction that the Black Knight was causing.  People were staring, pointing, shouting, and running away as the figure continued to meander down the crowded street.  He hadn't attacked anyone yet, but he was being rather careless.

As Forest grew closer, her eyes widened as she recognized the knight's scent.

She called out, "Satoshi?"

"what. Do. You. Want? Be concise I've managed the courtesy of speaking slowly and in small words so say what you want and be quick about it, I'm busy" Satoshi replied obviously annoyed as he continued crushing pavement under his feet.

"Well, I want to know what made you a raging cunt," Forest replied as she moved closer to him, folding her arms across her chest as she fell into step beside him.  She made sure to keep her distance from his destruction.

"And I wouldn't say you're busy, but more like Hulking out."

"You're a bunch of morons more so ready to bitch and moan over details rather than do the hero thing. It's simple  fight bad guy, beat bad guy, put bad guy in jail, not spit stupid aggression at each over petty shit, I save everyone and frankly as heroes your lack of perspective fails the point " he remarked still crushing parking meters and the like.

"And I'm more like the juggernaut than the hulk because I'm honestly not mad yet. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry. The black is a stain from Angra manyu, he's a Jesus figure except he literally died for the sins of people rather than figuratively and I swear I'll pick up the next car and kill you with it if you call him that name you did before. The reason I've become a cunt is because the curse is the evil of humanity, so being a douche is mark one." he replied

"So, you're cursed," Forest said, "That's something we can start with."

She ignored his words, obviously he wasn't in the sanest frame of mind.  Steeling herself to do something really stupid, she jumped out in front of him.  "So, if you're the Juggernaut, do not make me go Professor X on you.  There maybe a way to break the curse, or at least fight it.  If you're a hero, then fight that load of twaddle."

Satoshi smiled inside the armour and rushed her looking to trample her like his descriptor stated. Unstoppable and unrelenting,she dodged or there was a crumpled heap because unlike Xavier she couldn't shred his mind in a fifth of a second and that was all the time he'd give her.

He was fast, but she was agile.  She pivoted out of the way, grabbed one of the heavy plates on his armor, and rolled so she was on his back.

She couldn't bring him down with brute force, and she wasn't sure if a magnium round would hurt him.  "Come on Lad, I really don't want to get into this."

Satoshi ran faster picking up speed as he rush toward a condemned apartment building "get off or I bring the house down" he shouted aiming straight for a solid wall connecting with no intention of stopping until the vampire let go.

"Bugger it," Forest said with a sigh, before working to try to take his helm off before impact.

"sorry, it's one solid suit Logan's trick ain't working here honey" he chuckled as he smashed into the wall and then another pillar rush toward a second  one intent on powdering itif the vampire still held on.
