Prologue


[March 28, 1875 03:02:00]

It feels cold...

Not the gun that's pressed against my temple, but the stare coming from those eyes. I feel several chills run through my spine as I realize that those eyes don't belong to a human, but to a heartless monster that can kill anyone. This presence is definitely not coming from a "Heroic Spirit", but from a vengeful one. Or perhaps I am mistaken. He's a whole different entity compared to my grandfather, Tohsaka Nagato. His cold stare makes me feel like he'll pull the trigger in a second if I avert my gaze from him.

I'm scared. My mind's going blank. My hand is soaked with sweat. My knees are trembling like they'll snap off in an instant.

If looking at his eyes can drain my energy to this degree, I may not survive the upcoming war.

After a minute, he suddenly closes his eyes. It was only for a minute but it feels like I've been looking into his eye for hours. Opening his eyes, he removes the gun from my forehead. Then he puts his gun in its holster and lets out a sigh. After that, he return his gaze to me and asks, "You...are you my master?"

Responding to his question, I muster up my courage and tries to talk,

"I…" I can't voice it out.

In order to win, I need a servant…but…

"…"

I'm full of doubts right now. I'm so confused that I can't even reply to such a simple question. Forget answering, I can't even speak.

"I will ask again... are you my master?" he said as if he's uninterested.

For some reason, the question made my heart race.

"…Y―Yes..I…I'm Tohsaka Yuu…"

I bow my head out of reflex.

Illuminated by the light of the magic circle below us, he put his right hand on his left chest and said,

"…Servant Archer. I, hereby, answer to your summons."

Author's Notes

Hello, I'm oninn.

It's been a few years since I write something like this... In other words, a fanfic!

There was a time when someone said that my works are totally trash and is too crude to move people's hearts but I didn't give up and continued writing. Well, the true purpose of me writing a story is just for I, a student, should study English and make a decent grades at school.

This was my first story that I posted and shared with the other people. I'm currently writing some other fanfictions and original stories at the same time right now. Well, not really 'right now' but I'm still busy writing other things as well. I'm even writing a script for a visual novel for my friend (But unfortunately, its not going well, though) so I'm soooo busy right now. But I even manage to continue writing this.

So, why did I chose to create a fanfic of F/SN? Am I a fan of F/SN?

Hmmn. That's not a difficult question, you know? If the YES button appears in front of me, right now... Then I'll even click it with my tongue if I was in the mood for it, probably.

Anyway, thanks for reading the [Prologue]. I know that my may of writing is sooo boring so please forgive me for that. I'll try to improve a little more. (And my state of mind is in a mess so I'll continue to edit the whole series since I'm not so sure about the credibility of information that I've written.)

Fate/Emblem focuses on the 2nd Holy Grail War, if you ask.

Hopefully, you'll read the 001 too and leave a message/suggestion/reviews and critic my work.
