A scream echoed throughout the house. Emiya, Saber, Rin, Archer, Kozeku, and Berserker ran down the hallway. Multiple party guests ran away screaming. As they burst in the room, the six found an armed man with green hair. People raced around him, his spear glimmering. He possessed a smile that caught the group off guard. "Hi there, I'm Rider!" His expression shifted ever so slightly, though he still retained his smile. "I didn't know there were three servants. Oh well. I'm guessing, Archer, Saber, and, I'm sorry love, what are you?" He questioned Berserker.

In a flash of motion her knives clashed with his spear. "I'm Berserker." She growled as she pushed him back with her knives.

"Bersereker! Wait!" Kozeku cried out.

"Learn to control your servant." Rin muttered under her breath. "Archer!"

"Saber, go!"

"Berserker, withdraw and protect us Masters!"

A flash of blonde and blue whizzed by Kozeku as Emiya called out her name, Berserker switching places with her as Saber flew forward. Berserker stepped toward the three masters, as Archer pulled back his bow and Rin fired blasts of glowing magic toward Rider.

Laughing loudly he deflected the blows of Saber, and even the projectiles from Rin. "I haven't had a good fight with this since when I was living!" Saber let loose a guttural growl, as she failed to even scratch the green-haired menace.

"Saber!" Archer shouted, Saber withdrawing from the ruthless dance between blades. With a loud scream he fired a barrage of arrows at Rider, whizzing closer and closer to him.

Suddenly, they were stopped in mid air, by what looked like a glowing, purple shield. With that, a lady, all covered in black descended from the ceiling. Her long, silky hair swirled around her ankles, as her sandal-ed feet came to meet the surface of the floor. Her long dress and robes seemed unfit for combat, but the glint in her golden eyes said otherwise.

Rider straightened up, brushing off his shoulder. "Well, it was nice meeting you all, but it seems that this is my ride." He bowed mockingly as the two slowly dissipated, as they were being summoned back.

The lady shot a cold glance toward the six. "Goodbye for now," she pointedly stared at Berserker, "watch where you tread, I sense that our past lives will begin to unravel as the Holy Grail War continues."

With her final words, and a smug smile from Rider, the two servants vanished into what seemed thin air.

"Well then," Kozeku began, breaking the silence, "we should go review and examine the fight." Turning on his heel, Kozeku headed for the hallway, sighing as he felt the early oncomings of a headache. "It's going to be quite a night.
