Hey, everyone! I'm back and the poll results are in! I'm updating more than twice a month, must be a new record! Anyways, here are the results of the poll:

For the fate of Shirou's arm:

Option 1: Regrown by Avalon – 19

Option 2: Bedivere's arm, the Noble Phantasm Switch On – Airgetlam - 14

Option 3: Artificial like Shiki Ryougi's puppet arm or some kind of robot arm – 5

Avalon wins! Yay, Avalon!

Now onto the responses to the comments:

To Tethriot – Due to the nature of Grail Wars, and the fact that Servants keep a copy of their memories of being summoned, it is possible EMIYA has seen a ridiculous amount of unique and different Noble Phantasms and other weaponry. I admit, this may be much, but necessary for some of the more fun Noble Phantasms.

To AbyssRhythme – Thanks. I'm really happy you like my fics. I promise I'll try to live up to your expectations. Unfortunately, with the way things are progressing, Homunculi for the Tower of Fate seems unlikely.

To mx2432 – He will eventually reach Reality Marble level, but not just yet. At the moment, he's not at that level.

To victimsofrage – Good idea. Thank you.

To – I'm afraid pseudo-Sevants like Ishtar and Parvati will not be included in this story and would like to apologize for not being able to do that or use Bedivere's Noble Phantasm arm.

To superpierce – With training, his reality marble will eventually be available.

To PasiveNox – A little but he has some limits. Though the DC Universe itself will make his powers stronger….

To Tommy298 – Oh, he will. Just you wait.

To Guest who talked about Shirou's OP state – He's not that OP but he is formidable. You'll see later in the chapters.

To the Guest who talked about the fate of Shirou's missing arm – Thank you for your opinion. But you got Bedivere's arm wrong. Originally, it did eat away at the user's soul, but after the singularity, the arm stopped eating the user's soul and just gives the user all the benefits: enhanced stats and that anti-army level attack.

To Hashirama 1710 – That's when in the Nasuverse. Who knows how the DC Universe, where there are less restrictions, will amplify Avalon.

To hnh058513 – Yep.

To jmasta32 – There are actually many Noble Phantasms that act as amplification items: Goddess of War amplifies physical abilities based on level of Mystery in the world, Rings of Solomon provide the ability to use all magecraft, etc.

To DracoArtemisLeopin – Oh let's be honest, Emiya could easily have all weapons of the Throne of Heroes through the Grail War system. I just gave a reason for it.

And now, let's start the fic!

"So this boy simply fell through the void of the Tower of Fate?"

It had only been a day since the strange boy suddenly appeared in the Tower of Fate. And this teen was strange. He had Japanese features, but had natural auburn hair, a rare trait, especially for the Japanese, and golden-brown eyes. However, what was most shocking was the potent magical energy Kent could sense from the boy. The magical energy reminded Kent both of the fae and of multiple different magical artifacts. Unfortunately, the boy was also injured, missing an arm, so Kent had called his old friend Red Tornado for help.

Tornado had brought some medical equipment, and they had placed the boy

"Yes, but what's most remarkable is his arm," Kent said, watching the unconscious boy on the medical bed. "It seemed that the arm was cut off completely but it just regrew like a salamander's tail. It seems to be in perfect condition too."

"Such powerful regeneration…." Red Tornado muttered. "It's rather impressive, but it seems magical in origin. I've detected no biological nor could mechanical tampering that could cause such regeneration."

"I came to that conclusion as well," Kent said, "but kids with limb healing magic don't just fall from the sky. At least they shouldn't."

"Yes," Red Tornado agreed. "It is quite unusual. Do you think he's one of your enemies?"

Kent scratched his chin. "I don't sense any chaos magic, nor any kind of magic I'm familiar with. There are traces of familiar powers, but nothing exact."

"I see," Tornado observed. "I wonder how he ended up in the Tower. Have you consulted Nabu?"

"I swore to Inza I'd never put on that blasted helmet," Kent shook his head, "and I intend to keep that promise."

Tornado nods in understanding. "I just wish that-"

Tornado was interrupted by the stirring of the teen, which got the full attention of both android and magician.

"Are you okay?" Kent asked worriedly.

"What's your name?" Red Tornado asked.

The teen groans, siting up and grabbing his head. "W-who are y-AAAHHH!" he screamed in Japanese, opening his eyes in shock at Red Tornado.

"Is something wrong?" Red Tornado asked in Japanese.

"W-what are you?" teen said, getting over his shock.

This caused both Tornado and Kent to blink in surprise. "You don't recognize him?" Kent asked.

"Um… no…." teen replied. "Should I?"

The two looked at each other as if having a silent conversation.

"Young man," Kent said, "we will need you to tell us exactly who you are."

The teen blinked and shifted uncomfortably. "That's something… I'm not comfortable talking about…." He looks down, staring down at his hands. Then he blinked, realizing something.

"W-what?" the teen screamed, staring at his left arm in shock. "H-how…?"

The two heroes looked at each other. This boy didn't realize his powerful healing factor?

"Who are you?" Kent asked, silently casting a small truth spell. However, the teen seemed to have somehow blocked the spell, in a manner Kent was not unfamiliar.

"…Zelretch," the old man cursed under his breath, though not undetected by the boy and the android.

"My name is Emiya Shirou," the teen said carefully, looking at both heroes cautiously.

"And you're a magus," Kent concluded, causing the teen to stiffen.

"Magus?" Tornado asked, curious.

"A type of magic user from another universe that treat the mystic arts in a more scientific way," Kent explained. "I met one once, a vampire named Zelretch, who was exploring the dimensions. These magi live in a universe that restricts them, the very planets weaken their abilities."

'Gaia and Alaya,' the teen thinks. 'And Zelretch? Just who is he? I know he's some sort of magus based on that spell….'

"That's certainly interesting to know," Red Tornado said calmly.

"In any case, how could a magus somehow get here?" Kent asked the kid. "If what Zelretch told me the truth, only the Second True Magic is able to properly manipulate dimensions."

Shirou looked at Kent, eyes narrowing in suspicion.

Kent noticed this. "Please, just tell us."

"You aren't going to escape here until you do," Red Tornado further explained. "The tower won't let you."

Shirou looks around, sensing the powerful prana of the area. "Fine. You see, it all started…."

Scene Break

Silence filled the room, both heroes unable to speak.

Red Tornado was the first to speak. "What a tragic past. This Holy Grail War… what a barbaric ritual…."

"But by the sounds of it… probably the real deal," Kent sighed, pinching his nose. "But in all honesty, it sounds like the cost is much too high."

"It really was…" Shirou said, remembering how the fates of Rin, Illya, Archer, and most importantly Sakura, which were changed by ritual and how many lives were both destroyed and taken by the Grail Wars.

"In any case, it seems you're stuck here," Kent said, "which means we can't simply let you go."

"So I'm a prisoner?" Shirou said, ready to fight if necessary.

"No, not at all," Red Tornado assured him. "We have several places you can go: some League areas, STAR labs-

"Or he can stay with me," Kent said, surprising both Red Tornado and Shirou.

"Kent, are you sure?" Red Tornado asked warily.

"Yes," Kent said, nodding and closing his eyes. "The kid's been through a lot and lost even more. I know what it's like to lose the person you love…. And also, I also know how it feels to essentially be thrust into a new world."

"Speaking of your time in the helmet?" Red Tornado asked.

'Helmet?' Shirou thought.

"You know me so well, old friend," Kent chuckled. "So what do you say, kid? Being sent off who knows where or becoming the ward of some random crazy stranger?"

Shirou blinked, nostalgia filling him. It… it was just like how Kiritsugu adopted him. He closed his eyes in thought, trusting his instincts. This old man seemed to be nice, and apparently, he'd be monitored despite what he chooses. Finally reaching a decision, he opened his eyes. With one motion, he pointed at Kent, with his new left hand.

Kent grinned. "Glad to hear it, kid. Can you stand?"

Shirou moves, wincing from a little pain. "I-I think so." He slides off the bed, carefully supported by Red Tornado. "Why?"

Kent's grin reminds Shirou of the Cheshire cat, mischievous and cunning, as he walks towards the door. "There's something I need you to see, something you should know."

Kent opens the door, and golden light emanates into the room. Shirou gasped as he saw what seemed to be another world, one that seemed to have its own laws of physics. Stairs and walkways filled this world, an endless golden void everywhere else.

"You see," Kent smiled, "I'm a sorcerer."

Two weeks later….

It would seem Shirou had made the correct choice. Life with Kent Nelson had been ultimately peaceful, with plenty of things to do. The 'tower' was so massive, it took Shirou a while to get the layout. He could easily clean the entire tower, but it usually takes most of the morning. Kent also seemed to have enjoyed the food Shirou would always make. The old man would wolf in down, saying it was the best food he ever had. Shirou had to alter his usual recipes to make it better for the old man's health.

But what Shirou found invaluable was the amount of arcane knowledge located at the tower, along with the amount of magical artifacts. Kent had a treasure trove of mystical powers that could be comparable to the Gate of Babylon itself. It had plenty of knowledge, though the information Shirou sought after was rare, even with these resources.

"Sakura…" Shirou said, "I'm coming back to you."

And done! I hope you all like this. And no, Shirou will not be going back to his dimension this early. Maybe later, much later. Anyways, I hope you all enjoy. Please Follow, Favorite, and Comment and stuff. Until next time!
