Prologue: Day Break
As I opened my eyes I absently noted I was in what seemed to be a greenhouse. My eyes locked onto the girl who appeared to have summoned me, I internally sighed, judging from her expression that somehow mixed confusion, disbelief, fear and wonder I had been summoned by the wild card of the Grail wars.
Oh well, never let it be said that Shirou Emiya gave up in the face of adversity. Like the servants before me, I'd protect my master or die trying.
Of course, that last bit was more likely to happen than I'd have liked.
"W-who are you?" The glasses wearing girl stuttered out while blushing. Okay barring the fact she looks familiar somehow, I can't help but be reminded of Sakura, I mean the stuttering, the blushing, the blank empty look...
Wait what was that last one? Trying not to think of possibilities too horrible to contemplate, I decided to answer her in the only way I knew how.
"I'm the copy of a legendary hero summoned as servant Saber to fight for the Holy Grail against six other legendary heroes in a Battle Royale that will most likely decimate the city and put millions of lives at risk, with you as my master." Damn it, I hadn't meant to say that!
Needless to say this proved too much for her, in other words she fainted. Right into the shrubbery too, I couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Still, regardless of my first impression, this war was going to get messy; who better than a fake janitor to clean up after this fake Grail?!
"Are you ready? The final Holy Grail War is about to begin!"
