Fuyuki city is my city, I protect it even though I was stung by it. I was about five or so when the great fire happened, I was blinded by it and was reportedly the only survivor; a blinded five year old. But somehow I could still see as my adopted father took me in and taught me martial arts and the bo-staff. But when I was eleven he died leaving me in the care of Taiga Fujimura, But during the time I've been blind I could still see thanks to my other four main becoming supercharged by the ambient magic from the great fire that blinded me. Soon I became a something more. For some reason I was gaining the ability to see sound like a bat. And I trained in the various martials arts and before soon I was the Mukomizuna or Daredevil! But to those who don't know my name is Shiro Emiya.
"Argh, I hate Mondays" Shiro said as he strained to get up. Feeling his way around for his glasses and shirt "Where are they?" he grunted before feeling the soft fabric of his blue and white shirt. "Finally he muttered pulling it on while feeling around for his stick which was near where he had placed his glasses. They were round sunglasses covered by red coloured mirroring to hide the pale silver eyes he had. Grabbing his stick, hoisting himself up he walked out of the shed he slept in over to the main house. "Hope Taiga's not here that woman needs to realise she's way too loud" Shiro muttered before he smelt something wonderful "Your cooking Daphne?"
"Ay it is lad" Daphne said as she placed a plate of eggs, bacon and sausages in front of Shiro.
"Loose the accent, it doesn't mix well with your proper British accent" Shiro muttered taking a gulp of coffee.
"Very well, but I have you know I am part Scottish" Daphne said
"Yeah, Part English, part Scottish and how many languages do you speak?"
"Five different languages: English obviously, Japanese Portuguese, Spanish and Dutch"
"Wow, talk about variety, so why so many for a simple housemaid" Shiro said snidely, earning him a whack on the head with a wooden spoon.
"Remember I was once a bodyguard, but your father wanted me to watch you when he passed so I retired from body guarding and became a housekeep! not a maid" Daphne said
"Alright, alright Housekeeper; there better?"
"Yes, now you better hurry up otherwise that miss Matou will be waiting for you" Daphne said
"What Sakura's here?" Shiro asked
"You have five minutes" Daphne smirked.
Sakura Matou was about to knock when Shiro ran into her while pulling on his trench coat. Both of them were now on the ground, Shiro on top of Sakura.
"Good morning sempai" Sakura said
"Um...morning" Shiro said getting off of her and helping her up. "Sorry about that" he blushed
"NO problem sempai, shall we get going?" Sakura asked
"Sure" Sakura said helping Shiro to school. She was the main person to help Shiro to school, while there the student council president and Archery Club Captain Issei Ryudo and Ayako Mistuduri would be the ones to help Shiro out, it seemed like they knew more about Shiro's condition then she did; but she didn't mind. She was happily able to talk to him about different topics, and help him 'see' the world
"The flowers seem to be in bloom" Shiro said taking in a deep breath through his nose smiling as the sweet perfume of the nearby flowers entered his nose. However he frowned as a second pair of footsteps were behind him.
"Tohsaka-sempai" Sakura gasped. Shiro didn't know who Tohsaka was, besides the school idol. The most popular girl in school, he had never heard or interacted with her, Ayako has some interaction. But uncertainty in Sakura's voice made him think that something happened to them in the past
"Is everything okay?" Shiro asked placing his hand calmly on her shoulder.
"Oh it's nothing" Skaura said, which to Shiro was clearly a lie. He kept frowning as the pair walked off.
'I have to meet with Tohsaka-san" Shiro though.
"We're here" Sakura said as Shiro let go of her shoulder and started to walk through the gate with his cane moving side to side.
"Thank you Sakura, I'll see you this afternoon" the blind man said
"Morning Issei" Shiro said walking into the student council room. He took a seat and waited until class started.
"Good morning Emiya, here's the paper" Issei said throwing the paper on the table. "You've once again made the paper"
"Did I, what did I do this time?" Shiro asked
"How about leaping around the city like a madman while taking down three drug deals" Issei said
"That wasn't me" Shiro said
"No it was the Daredevil, who is also you!" Issei said pointing his finger at Shiro
"Pointing is considered rude, so better not do it" Shiro said
"Damn you radar sense!" Issei said. Shiro just smiled, soon the door slid opened. But what Shiro saw was nothing but darkness when suddenly the darkness was illuminated by a wave of red casting the room in a red hue allowing Shiro to see the room before it faded back to red, Soon the room was filled with red lines. 'So the door opened, so now someone's now talking hence the smaller line, the quicker the vibrations in the air, the closer the 'waves' but I have to be careful of high pitch noises because they can scramble my radar sense. But my other senses help this radar function, my sense of touch can feel the indentations of ink on the page, and yesterday I discovered I can tell different colours apart by how much heat is giving it off, for example I can tell I'm wearing a brown uniform because of the amount of heat it radiates from it' Shiro mused when suddenly his radar sense went off kilter by a sharp whistle making his radar go berserk.
"AYAKO!" Shiro shouted to get his radar under control, he breathed out once the pain subsided "Please don't do that"
"Sorry you off musing about your powers again, even though they started appearing three years ago" Ayako said
"So what's new?" Issei said
"Colour" Shiro said
"So?" Issei said
"I mean, I can now sense colours by touching them and feeling the radiant heat coming from them" Shiro explained
"Not bad, so you can finally sense our ugly our uniform is"
"It's caramel brown with a black skirt, and a red ribbon if I'm not mistaken" Shiro said
"He's good" Issei said before opening the door. "Time for class"
"Okay" Shiro said getting up and gripping his cane before being guided by Ayako.
Shiro had to be guided by his friends because of the amount of noise from the other students, but to him it was radar sense training, everyday he would focus his hearing to enable him to pick up certain conversations; namely ones about the Mukomizuna who had recently been seen around Fuyuki City and Miyama Town. They said he was an oni that came to this world from the divine world to deal out justice, since all he targeted were those who took part in crimes. Murderers, thieves, dealers, traffickers and kidnappers were the ones the Mukomizuna targeted. Soon those who felt unsafe to wander outdoor once the street lamps turned on now felt safe because the Daredevil was out there. Unknown to those who were saying how cool he was saving those who couldn't, he walked their halls. Student by day, Guardian by Night. That was the role Shiro took on by himself, Issei and Ayako knew of it and disagreed with it arguing that it was too dangerous. But Shiro kept on doing it so he could save those who couldn't just like he was, a blind child with little hope of survvial. Yet here he was defending the helpless from the violent night after night; and got no thanks from it.
"So have the police stepped in and stopped him?" Shiro asked playing ignorant
"Not yet, from what I heard with the recent disasters the police have actually welcomed him helping them" Ayako said
"Yeah, I think something major's going to happen" Issei said
"Hope not, we don't need another massive fire" Shiro said as they reached the classroom. Soon class started. The teacher Taiga Fujimura raced in making Shiro chuckle while he ran his hands over the brail in his special textbooks.
"What's so funny Mr Emiya?" Taiga asked
"Oh, nothing Tiger-Sensei" Shiro laughed dodging the shinai "Next time, try and hit me when I'm distracted" Shiro chuckled.
"Alright fine" Taiga said going back and teaching.
Once the bell sound the class started to leave, well everyone but Shiro who was feeling around for his cane. Once he couldn't find it he assumed that some dumbass jerkoff decided to play blind man's bluff with his cane.
"Bastards, should just appeared one day and shove steel capped knuckle sandwiches down their throats" Shiro grumbled as he 'used' the wall to guide himself along, it was a common thing to see the blind Shiro walking the hallways with his hand on the wall looking for his cane which usually lead him to be late for the next class. Shiro was grumbling to himself when he felt a spongy part of the wall.
"Since when has there been a lump of sponge here?" Shior asked squeezing it, unaware that everyone was shocked about what Shiro was doing making them go silent 'Where'd the sound go?"
"There you arrrreeee SHIRO!" Ayako shouted
"Oh Ayako, what's up?" Shiro asked 'looking' at her
"Um do you know where your hand is right?" Ayako asked
"No why, where is it?
"Somewhere that if you keep it you'll lose it pal!" a voice sounded right infront of him making him jerk away
"I'm SO sorry miss?"
"I'm Rin Tohsaka" Rin growled making Shiro's radar sense active making him see Rin up close. He was absolutely taken back by her ethereal beauty and grace; not to mention her Draconic temper
"You're gorgeous" Shiro let slip stunning everyone 'Well, I felt her up may as well compliment her on her looks'
"Rin meet Shiro Emiya. The school's only disabled student"
"You're disable?" Rin asked.
"Yeah" Shiro said lifting his sunglasses so only Rin could see what lay beneath them: Burn scars and silver coloured eyes. "The great fire" he added on "Stung like a bitch for weeks" he joked slipping his shades back on.
"I had no idea, I'm sorry" Rin said softly
"Apology accepted, and I'm sorry about the you know" Shiro said "Not that they weren't um...soft" he added 'Soft, you want to die for commenting on how soft a girl's chest is, great going Emiya!'
"Er, thank you" Rin said puzzled while blushing "But that was the last time you would get to feel them"
"I can think of other ways" Shiro laughed
"And they'll not likely work" Rin snickered. Ayako quickly cough and grabbed Shiro's hand,
"I couldn't find your spare can so you'll have to use this" Ayako said placing a Shinai sword in his hands. Shiro and Rin raised an eyebrow "It was all I could find until I can get your cane back"
"Ah Fine" Shiro said walking off.
"Thanks, for not blowing up" Ayako said
"No problem, thing is I was in more shock than anything else" Rin said okay.
At the end of the day Shiro had found his cane and was walking back to the lockers when loud banging noises were heard
"A fight, here?" he asked no one in particular. "I think I should investigate this" and with that he went out to find out what the heck was going on, not knowing it would change his life forever.
Author note: okay so this is the light hearted first chapter to the first Daredevil/Fate stay night crossover. This series will get darker in future chapters to reflect the dark natures of both stories. also I'll be taking elements of The comics, movie and TV show for Daredevil's side of the story and I'll be using elements of all three paths for the fate stay night side along with new content.
The Fate stay night cast in relation to Dare
Shiro-Daredevil
Issei-Foggy
Ayako-Karen
Rin-Elektra
Don't worry Saber will show up but not for a while, but when she does you'll be surprised how =D
Until next time I'll catch you on the flipside
