Chapter 0: Foreword
For those of you who have seen the Fate/Stay Night anime/magna, this is the story that you have yet to see. It will be placed in America and will start at the same time as the Fate/Stay Night did in Japan. In other words, the timelines will run parallel to each other. This has little to do with the true Fate/Stay Night but I will allude to it some times, like with the talk of the murders. I will (sorry, can't help this fact) end up using myself for the main character (with many differences in lifestyle) mostly and use powers mostly the same as Shirou's but used in manners that I deem appropriate to the situation. I am a first time writer so it will most likely suck, "But" I'll try my best. I'll try to come up with more chapters as often as possible, but my life is often hectic, I'm easily distracted and entertained. I would like reviews on what you think, like, and on what you think I should put in. This story won't go past T due to some swearing. Thank you. And now, chapter 1.
Chapter 1: The Other Side of the World
Beep Beep
An alarm was going off only to be silenced by a lazy aggravated slap.
"Five more minutes," the owner of the hand said before forgetting the whole event ever even happening. "JIMMY!" A female voice hollered to the, yet again, unconscious boy. "Get your butt out of bed!" Said female came through the door, grabbed the mattress, and flipped Jimmy out off the bed. After a loud "Thunk" and a groan he peeked his head over the flipped mattress. "Morn' Kar'n."
"Don't you 'morn' Kar'n' me! Every morning it's the same thing. Now get dressed and get ready for school! I'm not going to let you stop me from keeping my promise to your grandfather to take care of you!" Karin stomped out of the room before slamming the door. note to self, don't piss her off again, Jimmy thought as he got dressed.
When he got down the stairs Karin was already eating her breakfast, she had apparently gotten Jimmy's cereal and milk out so that he wouldn't be late.
Jimmy is in his senior year and is your average 18 year old… except the fact that his parents were magi. Before his parents died he received the mark that was passed down in his family. In his case, it was that of an infinity symbol in a circle on the palm of his right hand. This was the current topic of discussion between him and Karin.
"So how did you get that thing again?" Karin asked him. "I was too young to remember. My grandfather said that my dad put it there with like ritualistic ink before he died. I don't know if I believe him though, he always seemed a little off his rocker to me. I still can't figure out his last words though." Karin asked Jimmy for the umpteenth time since his grandfather died. "What were they again?" Jimmy sighed knowing he would have to say them again.
"This world has more than most know. If something goes horridly wrong in the world, and no one can figure it out read this book." Jimmy pulled out the book right that his grandfather had given him. He didn't know why it comforted him by having it around, but he wasn't about to complain about it. "The thing I can't figure out is," Jimmy stated before grabbing the covers of the book and attempting to pry the lockless book open, "why won't the bloody thing open?"
"I wonder why?" Karin stated saying what was already said. "It will probably open when-" ding ding "Oh! We got to get back to class." Karin grabbed her books and lunch box before heading off to class leaving Jimmy behind with his sealed book and his thoughts.
Jimmy walked Karin home after school before heading back to the large house his grandparents had left behind for him. The building had been in his family for generations and his family had build up a hefty savings before they died leaving him alone. When He got home he turned on the news to a global news channel. There was a scene of carnage on saying that Japanese officials couldn't find any clues on the culprit other than a bladed weapon.
"WHAT THE HELL!" Jimmy's palm was burning, the sigil on it had turned red before it swiftly changed to white and increased the intensity of the burning. He ran to a sink and put his hand under some cold water. It did nothing to sooth his pain. "Come on, water works for fires, why not this!?" He dried his hands off and found that the book he always kept in his pocket was currently on the couch he had just scrambled off of. He went to pick the book up with his currently burning and the book, for the first time ever, snaps open.
"Something isn't right." Jimmy grabs the book and flips through it seeing a page with a note on it. "Grandson, if you are reading this, then we are all dead and what I suspected has happened. This book will tell you all you need to know, but for now just follow the instructions on this page. I'm proud of you Jimmy."
That page was the last straw. He new nothing of what was going on. Panic had long since set in and now he was going to do the only thing he could do. Trust his Grandfather. He got the necessary items together for the spell on the page titled, "Summon Servant."
Author's notes:
Well, this is the first chapter of my story. I'm still working on who he will summon, and who the other characters will be, but I would like to hear what you all think. So please reveiw, I beg you all! Yes, I have become a reveiw Nazi.
