Chapter One: Master and Servant
"This is boring…" I silently muttered out as I looked out in the window of my classroom as I ignored another lecture from another teacher that I don't care about. It's not like I'm going to use this stuff their teaching in my life. Seriously how the hell am I going to use advance calculus in my daily life? Oh and by the way my name is Naruto Namikaze a spikey haired blue eyed teen and sadly it seems I'm suffering from some sort of amnesia since my name is the only thing I can remember. Seriously I don't recall much about my life except my name. Hell I don't even recall being enrolled at this school Tsukimihara Academy. It's just like I just woke up one day and found myself already wearing their school uniform.
*Bells Ring*
"Okay that's everything for today" I hear the teacher Kozuki-sensei left before he left the room. That guy was creepy I don't know why but he gave the vibe of a killer or something and it send chills down my spine when the man was in the same room as me. So I tend to stay the hell away from the guy as much as possible.
"Oi Naruto" I turn my head around to look at who it was calling me I raised my eye brow as one of my friends was approaching me. Hakuno Kishinami a rather ordinary looking man teen with brown hair and eyes.
"Yeah, need something?" I asked it wasn't always that he approached me for something. It was often me going to him and pestering him.
"Actually" he placed his hand on the back of his head as he scratched it "Haven't you noticed something weird around the school?" he asked as he pulled a chair near my desk and sat at it.
"So you noticed it too huh?" I told him as I shifted my body and faced him "Some students are disappearing and- " I was cut off when another person decided to enter the conversation.
"No one seems to be noticing it right?" I looked at the person who decided to cut me off Kanade Arata another of my friend of mine a bit tomboyish but she's really cute. Though she looks a bit similar to Hakuno having the same brown eyes and hair, but her hair was long and wavy that went down to her back.
"Yep Kana-chan here got it, people are disappearing and no one's noticing aside from that there were other stories like the Gateway to the Paranormal or The Red Girl in the roof top" I told them as I saw Kanade take a sit on my desk. "Apparently the Ace of the Journalism club is investigating these mysteries" she said as I tilted my head away from her 'Damn short skirts and hormones' I though as I got a small peek of her panties.
I was Hakuno smirked as he noticed the slight blush on my face. "Well did you enjo-" I covered his mouth with my hands. I did not want him blurting out that I got a peek of Kanade's panties last person who did that got their face based so bad that they couldn't even be passed as human anymore.
I looked back at the girl and saw her tilting her head to the side as she place a finger near her chin "Huh what are you guys doing?" she asked.
"Uh.. nothing we've just- um…" I glared at Hakuno who I saw was now smiling 'shit' "We were talking about how I was going to treat him to dinner earlier" I told her as I let go of the teen after he came to an understanding that I was bribing him.
"Ah! So you mind treating me as well!" she asked happily.
"He'd be happy too" Hakuno answered for me. Oh he was so dead after this I was going to hurt him to the point he wish he'd die if he was killed.
"Sure" I let out a fake smile knowing my wallet was going to take a major hit this day.
And so the three of us continued talking, about random things in life, before we left the class room and grabbed dinner. It was fun, it was normal, it was boring.
Yet I was happy, really happy but for some I felt empty for some reason it was like I was forgetting something. I looked outside of a window as the three of us walked through s hallway. I saw the image of the early night sky, the moon was just rising.
Everything was normal but deep down inside I knew things were about to change.
I didn't know why but I just knew.
"Oi Naruto hurry up!" Kanade called out snapping me out of my gaze as I turned towards her and Hakuno. I closed my eyes as I shook my head "Hai hai" I answered back as I started walking once more.
-Man in the Moon-
The next of school started out normally. Hakuno was talking to his friend Shinj; I don't know why they were friends in the first place since the guy was a grade A douche while Kanade was talking to one of my other classmates a girl with long red hair whose name I don't know.
I sat on my seat as and like the other two my day started with someone trying to start-up a conversation with me or provoke me into a fight I don't really know I think the guy considers the two things similar. "Hey dobe" 'Fuck' I thought as I looked at the person who was trying to pick a fight this early in the morning. Black hair, black eyes, and that I am greater than you personality yep it was this douche again. Uchiha Sasuke the biggest prick in this school on par with Shinji-thank god those two weren't friends. He was currently the captain of the school's Kendo team which I was a member of until a few days ago. "What is it Uchiha?"
"I heard you've got nothing to do after you quit the club so I'm here to offer you a position back in the club" he smiled "We need someone to clean up after the meetings and I'm sure someone like you would be good at that"
"Sorry I think you're better suited for that job, since it takes trash to clean up trash after all" I snapped back as I looked out of the window and saw the seething look on the teen's face.
"What was that dobe?"
"Oh your deaf now? Does getting you head pounded one too many times in the club affected your hearing as well?" I ducked and rolled away from my chair as the teen tried to slug me.
"Care to repeat that Dobe!" he said as he cracked his knuckles and glared at me.
I looked around the classroom and noticed everyone was already staring at me and Sasuke. This was a usual occurrence but they really couldn't help but watch when the two of us scuffle. Heck I saw Kanade already starting betting pools with Shinji already betting that Sasuke would whoop my ass.
That guy really was an asshole.
I cracked my knuckles as well as I looked at Sasuke "I said you're trash" I told him as I immediately brought up my hand and caught an oncoming fist aimed at my face. Before I kicked him in the leg knocking him off balanced as I let go of his fist and step to his side. I was about to throw a punch to the prick's face but someone held me back.
I looked behind me and saw the class president, a blonde haired teen holding tightly on my hand. "Now now no need to fight home room is going to start soon" he told me as he looked at the Uchiha "Sasuke would you be kind enough to go back to your seat?"
"Hn" the Uchiha replied as he looked at me in the eyes telling me this is not over as he walked back to his seat on the opposite side of class.
"Tch" I said as I pulled my arm away from the president before sitting down on my seat once more and looking out the window.
"It's not nice to start a fight" he started and was about to lecture me if not for the class room door suddenly opening. Still paying no mind to the other teen I saw our home room teacher Taiga Fujimura entering the room at her side though was-
*Lubb* *Dubb*
I felt my heart suddenly beating rapidly as my head started hurting.
*Lubb**Dubb*
A transfer student a blonde haired green-eyed teen wearing a bright orange uniform
*Lubb**Dubb*
I felt my head hurt more as the sound of static suddenly permeated in my head.
*Lubb**Dubb*
Something was wrong; something about the kid was unnatural.
*Lubb**Dubb*
I felt my heart beating once more as the sound of static suddenly increased.
"Well I know this is coming out of nowhere but this is a new transfer student joining our class today" she said as she pointed at the other teen.
The static got louder as I saw the boy looking intently at everyone in the room from the side of his eyes as he talked with Tiaga.
My instincts were kicking in high alert.
"My name is Leonardo Bistario Harway" the teen said with pure confidence. "In time, it will be known around the world, but for now I am just but your simple classmate. So for now let's all get along" he said before Taiga pointed at his seat
The room was silent at the teens' introduction but it wasn't for me.
I was still hearing the loud sound of static.
I looked at the teen as I noticed him staring at Kanade, then Hakuno, after that his vision shifted to me.
He looked at me with curiosity as I was almost tempted to glare back at him or bad mouth him like Shinji and the Uchiha were already doing.
I watched as he broke his gaze from me before sitting down on a vacant seat in front of Kanade.
Aside from that the day was basically normal except for the feeling of the uneasiness still lingered in me. The day ended with me going home alone while Kanade and Hakuno went about their own business. As I was walking down the hallway making my way out of the school I saw the Ace of the journalism club as he was standing in front of a girl who looked like she was about five years younger than us with white hair while wearing blue clothes. I looked away as I made my way out of the school.
'Who though he was a pedophile?' I though as I passed by another student who was rapping for some reason as I made my way out of the school. Before I took a step out of the school though I froze and looked behind me towards the school roofs as I sensed someone looking at me. My eyes narrowed as I saw a red haired kid standing on the roof top. He was looking down on me and for some reason that didn't sit in well with me.
I just shook my head as I turned around left the school.
Its official things were getting weird.
-Man in the Moon-
The next day was hilarious; I sat on my sit as I tried my best to not break out laughing as the new kid Leo has apparently stolen all of Shinji and Sasuke's fan girls.
The two were seething and it was funny as hell.
That was until the sound of static returned along with the rapid beating of my heart as Leo stood up during the middle of the class and suddenly disappeared.
During the break I left the class room as my vision began wavering as well.
Everything seemed blurry as the world suddenly felt like it was tilting. I walked in the hallways as I saw the students standing around blurring out of existence before they disappeared before my eyes.
I knew my break was already over and even though the bell rang and I heard it through the static I didn't care. I didn't dare go back the class room I knew I had to go somewhere I knew there was a place I needed to be.
So I followed my instincts and went down stairs towards the first floor as the sound of the static began to get louder and louder.
I looked at the hall ways and noticed no one was there except for a purple haired girl wearing what looked like a lab coat. Sakura her name was I think.
She was looking at me strangely and walked towards me "Are you okay?" she asked as he placed her hand on my shoulder. I looked at her strangely before I realized that I was clutching my head.
Something felt really weird something was wrong. I lightly pushed her away as I turned around and started walking towards the opposite hallway. I know there was nothing there but for some reason something was pulling me to that place.
My vertigo increased as I got close and closer to the end of the hall, as I reached the end I stopped walking as I clutched my head. Everybody was still in class and I should probably go back but something was just calling to me.
I walked towards the wall as I placed my hand on the wall.
*Lubb**Dubb*
I felt my heart beating rapidly as my hand went through the wall.
'What the hell' I though as I gulped, something was calling to me and it was coming from the other side. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes as I decided to walk towards and passed through the wall. I felt as if the wall shattered around me as I passed by.
-Man in the Moon-
I slowly opened my eyes as the rapid beating of my heart and vertigo finally stopped. I around and myself inside what looked like an abandoned storage room but as I look at the forward towards the path ahead of me I saw what could only be described as a grey effigy with glowing lines all over its body besides a portal no it was more like a rip in the fabric of this world's existence.
I slowly walked forward and made my towards the effigy.
"Welcome potential master" I heard someone say as my eyes suddenly widened and immediately darted around the room to search for the speaker. "That effigy with you is your sword and shield for what lies ahead. It will move in response to your commands" just as it said that the effigy began moving and started walking towards me.
I knew this whole situation should somehow freak me out, but for some reason it didn't it was as if for me this was normal. Well whoever I was since my memory of who I am aside from my name is basically blank as of now.
"Now then, please proceed. The truth you seek lies ahead." The voice added as it suddenly vanished. I finally stopped looking around the room realizing that the voice was speaking directly in my head.
Again for some reason I was not weirder out by this.
I look at the opening in front of me as I gulped once more. Will I finally remember who I am the moment I go through that door? I looked behind me and saw whatever path I took to get here was already gone. Guess I had no choice but to walk ahead.
I started walking towards the strange portal as the effigy slowly walked behind me following my every step as I made my way towards the unknown.
I kept walking and walking through a corridor surrounded by darkness the only light upon it was the path on which I stood that gave off a blue colored light. I kept walking for what seemed like a few minutes before the darkness suddenly faded replaced by a foggy dark green light accompanied by the floor which began glowing brighter.
It was like I was on an acid trip, which was weird because I didn't know what the hell an acid trip even was.
I stopped walking and started running as I was surrounded by a bright white light. The path I was walking on changed once more. It was now glowing neon blue that had a rather digital or cyber feel into it. I didn't really care; I just kept running until I the voice returned once more.
"Welcome potential master" the voice said once more as I looked up at the sky, it was coming from there but when I looked up there was nothing but dark blue murkiness. It looked as if I was under water "take a step ahead and move forward" it added like I really needed it to tell me that as I continued running.
I stopped walking though when I encountered some kind of round and mechanical object "Before you is an enemy program, it is programmed to attack you on sight. You will not battle it as you are too fragile your effigy will attack for, but if your effigy falls the enemy will directly attack you and you will die."
I just looked at the sphere and pointed at it "attack" I told my effigy as it nodded back before attacking the object six times giving it no chance to counter attack as it was destroyed easily.
"Well that was simple" I said to myself as I looked at my Effigy before I started running once more. We encountered a few more programs and defeated them thoroughly as well. One kept guarding so I commanded the effigy to break its guard. The other kept attacking so I told it keep in the defensive and counter attack.
Eventually I ended up in a spacious room that had a stifling aura of purity in it. In front of me, was what looked like three stained glass window reminiscent of those found in Churches surrounded by darkness. I kept staring at it before I was forced to look away when I heard some strange noises coming from my side.
I titled my head to that direction as I saw a body lying down on the ground wasn't moving and it was pale and grey. I assumed it was dead, just like a corpse. I shifted my head a few feet away from the body where another effigy was slowly standing up.
And before I could even react the effigy charged at me.
My own effigy came running towards it as the two began clashing.
It wasn't the best or most epic of battles as the two of them just kept attacking, blocking, or smashing through another the other's guard but for some reason I noticed it, my effigy was slowly losing and before I knew it my effigy fell on the ground defeated by the dead man's effigy.
'Crap' I thought to myself as my body instantly reacted as I jumped back to evade an oncoming slash coming from the effigy. I looked down on my shirt and saw a large diagonal tear on it with a small amount of my own blood seeping out.
I looked towards the abomination that dared to attack me only for it to move in a burst of speed that I didn't know it was capable of achieving. This time before I could react, the effigy trusted its hand forward piercing me through the chest.
I spat out blood as it pulled it hand off my chest.
My feet lost strength as I slowly found myself falling face first to the ground with a large gaping hole in my chest.
I didn't know why but for some bizarre reason I found this scene extremely ironic.
"You seem to be lacking as well" I heard a voice say from the distance "May you find peace in annihilation" it added as I slowly lifted my head off the ground. My eyes widened as I saw a few other students laying on the ground all suffering from different wounds such as I.
They were already dead, but I wasn't and I refused to die.
I forced all my strength into my legs as I slowly stood up, I didn't mind the blood was pouring out of my chest, I didn't mind all the intense pain I was feeling all over my body.
No I just wouldn't give up.
That's my way.
'Huh… My way?' I thought to myself as I recalled one small fragment of my past.
It was an oath.
A simple oath I made to myself.
"Yes I never give up… that's" I said to myself as blood seeped out of my mouth. I looked at the effigy that tried to kill me; it had its head tilted to the side as if confused.
It was as if it didn't know how to react in this situation.
I couldn't blame it I'd be pretty shocked if a guy I was sure I killed just stood up and shrugged it off like it was nothing.
I looked at the effigy.
I wasn't afraid.
I wasn't afraid of pain.
I wasn't afraid of losing my senses.
I wasn't afraid of becoming a corpse.
The one thing I feared was giving up and losing my way.
My only fear was that I was going to give in to all of this but I wasn't I won't give up.
"My nindo" I said to myself.
"Hahahahahaha, you! yes you!" a proud and amused feminine voice said "the one there standing over against death itself, you who show no fear, You are a treasure amidst all of these beings who dare call themselves masters! " I didn't see the person's face but I knew it was smiling "And like all the treasures that exists within this mortal realm you belong to me"
I looked away from the effigy as I looked at the three stained glasses, all three of them shattered before a golden glass appeared in the center of where the three once stood. The glass grew brightly as I suddenly noticed as bright light appearing in the center of the room.
It wasn't any regular light; it expelled an immense amount of power enough to send shivers down my spine. I focused my eyes on the light as an object began rising from the light.
There was a burst of bright light as a beautiful figure suddenly appeared in front of me.
It was girl with long blonde hair that waved in the air. She has blood red eyes that went along with her beautiful unblemished white skin. She was wearing a black long sleeved shirt that was torn just above her chest giving me a good view of the bottom half of her breasts as well as her well-toned stomach along with the red tattoos shaped like a lightning bolt that ran along the sides of her abdomen. The girl was also wearing parts of what looked like a golden with blue lines going along it armor, her armor consisted of a gauntlet on her right ,skirt, as well as greaves that went up to her thighs, and sabatons. Finally she finished off her attire with various golden accessories such as a necklace and a pair of square earrings. She was drop dead gorgeous.
Her beautiful looks aside there was another thing that was grabbing my attention and in fact it stood out even more than her appearance. It was the sheer presence that was emanating from her.
It transcended any power I've felt before.
"Be proud, out of all the participants in this event you are the only one who I deem worthy of becoming my Master!" the woman said as she raised her arms to her sides. "Now I ask of you are you my master?" she asked as she looked at me with those blood red eyes.
As she looked at me I felt somehow compelled to answer "Yes" I answered as the woman smiled.
"The contract is complete, and although it seems your quite lacking as a Master I still accept you!" she said proudly as she grabbed my right hand. I suddenly felt as if a searing hot knife carved a symbol onto the back of my hand. I looked at the back of my hand and saw a strange symbol as if tattooed in it.
It was a blood-red symbol of a leaf.
I heard the sound of the effigy creaking behind me reminding me of its presence as well as the presence of the gaping hole that was still in my chest.
I looked behind me and saw the effigy still stood standing there. I felt the girl make her way at my side before she stepped in front on me and the effigy.
"So this thing dares touch my treasure? The foolish mongrel needs to know its place" the woman said as a pair of dual golden blades appeared in her hands.
The girl smirked as she charged into the effigy and even I had to admit I felt sorry for the poor thing.
I watched as the effigy tried to bring its arms up in order to guard only for the girl to swing both her blades and smash through his pitiful defence. Now defenseless I watched her swing around her blades as if she was dancing, attacking the effigy multiple times giving it no time to block. I then watched as she extended her leg and kick the effigy away before she threw both her blades at it impaling it in its head and chest.
Safe to say that thing was dead.
Once again I heard that voice as I felt pain coming from the back of my right hand "Congratulations. You have achieved your first goal. And I must say I am quite impressed I was expecting you to be a hapless master but it seems you have exceeded my expectations. Be proud of your achievement" the voice said once more only this time I saw some sort of image of a smug looking priest in my mind.
I wanted to slug the man's face.
"Oh curious about my appearance? Well I am honored but that will be useless I am merely a part of the system. I am just a guide nothing more than a record of the past" it added.
"A record does that mean you know who I am?" I asked back with hope and excitement anything that'll help me learn about my past is a godsend by this point.
"Yes and apparently you have received a commendation"
"What do you mean?" I asked generally confused at what the voice said.
"Now let us commence your baptism" it said not answering my question "you have proven yourself worthy of the honor" it said as the woman from earlier slowly turned around and walked to my side. "You have earned the right to exist, however you have only take the first step. Be jubilant, young knight, for the Holy Grail War begins now!" it declared as the woman in front of me suddenly smiled.
"Holy Grail what now?" I asked aloud.
"A battle to the death for the possession of the holy grail an object that can grant any desires" the woman answered for the voice. "A treasure that is rightfully mine and with you by my side my Master will triumph above the rest" she placed a finger on my chest "I am your servant, your shield and sword during this war, a hero from the past" she paused as she took in a breath "I bear no class since I have no need for one but ask of you to call me Gilgamesh" she finished as the voice once again began to speak.
A battle to the death for the Holy Grail; and if I get this object would I remember who I am?
Will I remember for what purpose I am here?
If so then-
"It seems you have decided, with that decision as your payment, I now open the gates to the Holy Grail War" It finished as I felt the pain in my chest and the symbol from my right hand increase by a hundred fold. I gritted my teeth in pain as I was forced to kneel.
"There is still a few hours before the gates of this war close so I cannot declare it start" the voice said once more as my vision began to waver probably due to the blood loss and pain.
I looked at my servant who was staring at me with a confused expression as if not knowing if she should help or not.
"No matter the era, deciding who is worthy through battle is the divine providence of man. Magi who have been invited here to the Moon and you who seek the truth; show me your true strength" the voice finished as my mind finally gave in to the stress of my body.
The last thing I saw before I lost consciousness was my servant's face as she held me in her arms.
AN: Kanade is the FeMC Hakuno is the MC and yes they will both be participating in the war with Kanade getting Archer and Hakuno Nero, and Naruto has the game breaking Gil-chan on his side or at least would be game breaking if he wasn't a crappy master like his two other friends. Meaning at this point of the story as Naruto hasn't recovered most of his memories Gil-chan is not much stronger than an average servant! Deum and for those curious she is a mix between Gilgamesh and Prototype Gilgamesh. When the events of the story start Naruto already has awareness of his name and already sensed the sudden changes in the school even before the other two noticed. There is a reason for that and I will not mention it until later on. As for the events of the story Naruto went to the other side of the wall before Leo.
