"Talk"

"Saber talking"

"thoughts"


/ARCHER POV/

"This is going to be even more difficult than I thought...I did not expect the scenario to change to this extent."

Archer said in his mind as he drank his tea. He looked at his master who also had a thought filled look on her face.

She put down her tea and faced archer."What class do you think that servant was Archer?" He thought for a moment and said "By the way that he moved and used his improvised weapon he must be of the Saber class." Rin nodded as she came to the same conclusion.

She looked at her white haired servant and asked "what's on your mind now?" Archer looked back as her and said "nothing". She didn't believe him but let the matter drop and returned to her cooling tea.

In truth Archer was thinking about the weapon that Saber used. It had the feel of a noble Phantasm but it couldn't be as he had saw with his superior sight that he had picked it up.

What was worse is that he couldn't project it When he looked at it he couldn't read anything about it and that made him even more confused and disturbed. 'what is that ability?' That thought would haunt him for the next few days


Shirou sat down and looked at his servant. This whole thing made him so confused who was Saber, who was that blue haired spear guy? He put his face in his hands trying to relieve this headache.

"master is something wrong?" He looked up back at the black knight and said "It's nothing Saber just i'm confused, just what is going on!"

Saber nodded and spoke "Look at your hand."

Shirou at his hand that had the odd mark engraved on it. It was an unbelievably complex magical insignia, which was made of three red lines that formed what seemed to be a sword

"You have the mark on your hand, which qualifies you as a master. My master to be precise." said the man in black. "You can call me Saber as it is my class."

Shiro could not fully understand what Saber was saying. "Wait...Saber, What exactly is a Master?".

The servant tilted his head a bit then he answered. "You are one of the seven mages chosen to fight in the current Holy Grail war. I suppose you do not know what this means either, do you?"

"No"

Saber nodded "Very well Master, listen and i'll explain things the best I can." at his nod he continued.

"Every sixty years there is a tournament in Fuyuki called the Holy Grail War. Seven magus designed master and seven servants, who are heroic spirits, fight to the last standing in order to obtain the prize. Said prize is the Holy Grail. At the moment this is the fifth time this tournament is started.

There are seven classes ; Saber, Archer, Lancer, Caster, Assassin, Rider and Berserker, hence seven classes for seven servants.

"what's this do then?" he looked at the red marks on his hand

"Those are three absolutes commands that a servant cannot disobey, they're the proof of being a master and they can still be useful even if there are no conflicts between the master and the servant.

By using a command seal you can even do normally impossible things, like bringing a faraway servant to your emplacement regardless of distance, or to dodge an attack they couldn't normally do. They're aces that can be used in order to obtain an advantage."

"Once the three commands are used the master is no longer one, and if the servant had been forced to do things against their ideals..."

Shirounodded understanding the point.

"Are casualties common in this... thing?"

"Normally most participants try to keep things under wrap and avoid bystanders from being involved. But that is not always the case." The servant commented somberly. "After that it depends on the strategy of the master."

"What do you mean?" Shirou inquired liking less and less the whole thing.

"For instance it's possible for servants to eat the life force human's in order to gain mana and obtain more power. Although i will only do it if you wish."

Shirou said "no I won't allow anyone to be hurt by this!" Saber nodded his head and said "As you wish master."

He looked at the clock and said " I'm going to bed" said Shirou and got up but stopped as he saw that Saber too had got up "Master I will watch over you while you sleep."

Shirou was about to say something but in the end shook his head and just went to bed with saber sitting near by.

Saber then thought about the situation he found himself in. He was summoned as a saber. Granted he qualified for the class but he never would have thought he would be summoned as one. He let out a low groan, why couldn't he have been a Berserker, then he would be too insane to bear with his guilt and sorrow. It would have also made things easier for his maser.

Speaking of his master. Saber turned to his sleeping master. 'Even without the madness enchantment I should have been able to defeat Lancer easily. But it seems that I have been weakened. I would have to bring out that to even be at my normal stats. As Berserker I wouldn't have be enable to be supported by master. So I was put into the next suitable class.


Saber then continued to listen and watch over his master thought out the night.

Shirou went down stairs the following morning and saw that Saber was there sanding a bit away from him. He gave a nod to his master and asked "did you sleep well master?"

"Yes i did Saber."

after that Saber went out side to the back yard to do who knows what. Shirou shrugged and went to cook some breakfast and hopped that Sakura didn't notice his armored servant.

After breakfast telling Sakura and Taiga to go on ahead Shirou looked at the gate and saw Saber waiting for him. as Shirou came up to him Saber said "i am ready to depart as well master" Shirou sputtered

"W-w-what! you can't come to school with me!" Shirou said as he looked over his servant Saber's armor, the black mist around him and this helmet made him imitating and very noticeable.

"no need to worry about that master as I can enter spirit form." Shirou gave his servant a confused look "spirit form?"

Saber gave no response and then seemed to become black mist until to Shirou became transparent and see through. Shirou looked at Saber with awe and shock.

Saber gave another chuckle "this way master no one can see me except you of course" Shirou then reluctantly nodded and started walking with his servant right next to him.
