Author's Note: Well I have a question for you all, would you like me to post a list of all the servants in this now as all of them are new, or would you rather me not. It's fine either way I am just curious is all. Anyways please enjoy the story.
Taku and Kuro were hanging out all day. However Taku couldn't help but feel like there was something off about his friend. Why on earth did he keep his little adventure secret from him, and why not say anything before hand? And his Servant, Archer, something felt different. Unlike the past few he met he didn't feel anything from him. And Lancer agreed there was something definitely off. So after they hung out, they headed home.
"Taku," Lancer said, "I don't think that they are telling the truth to us."
"Yeah," Taku said, "Taku wasn't acting like himself, and Archer..."
"I think that is actually Assassin," Lancer said
"Huh?" Taku said, "Really?"
"Yeah," Lancer said, "As far as I know, only Assassins can hide their presence as well as he did, and that arrow he fired, I felt nothing from it."
"I see," Taku said, "D-Do you think he is actually..."
"It's more than likely," Lancer said, "I suggest we play along for now."
"Alright.." Taku said, he took out his phone to text his friend, well now enemy, "Why...Why him..."
"No idea," Lancer said, "War can be tragic like that."
Taku nodded and sent a text to Kuro asking him to wait up. He then put his phone into his pocket.
"I just hope we're wrong," Taku said, and the two ran to catch up with Kuro and "Archer."
"Huh?" Kuro said, "Not going home eh?"
"Almost forgot," Taku said, "We gotta hit up the arcade before it closes."
Taku decided the Arcade would work to investigate him, people wouldn't pay much mind to them focusing n the games, get if he tried to attack there would be witnesses everywhere. Plus Kuro would never suspect he got caught if he was having to much fun to notice. Taku just hoped that he wasn't really an enemy like they suspected.
"Huh?" Kuro said, "You forget something there?"
"I texted you," Taku said, "About going to the arcade."
"Oh I must have forgotten my phone," Kuro said, "My bad."
"It's fine," Taki said, "Well is it ok?"
"Sure,"Kuro said, "Why didn't ask before, I mean..."
"It's nothing," Taku said, "Let's just go."
Taku and Kuro went to the arcade with Lancer and "archer." Kuro wasn't acting suspicious as far as Taku could see, aside from not having as much rage over losing whenever he did. Overall he seemed to be the same person he always hung out with and not one to do anything to hurt him. However all that changed when Kuro realied he had a text on his phone, he looked and was shocked.
"Lancer," Taku wispers, then pulled her away from Kuro so he won't overhear, "Kuro is home sick today."
"So there are even more lies," Lancer said, "Hmph we know for sure who's side they are on now."
"I'm just glad I don't have to fight Kuro," Taku said, and he went to confront the frauds.
"Kuro!" Taku said glaring, "How about you tell me the truth now?"
"Truth?" Kuro asked in feined confusion
"Yeah," Taku said, "WHo are you two really!?"
The two looked at one another then "Archer" shrugged.
"We're nobody," He said, "I'm just an assassin serving my master, but we got the info we needed from you and then some."
"Yeah," The false Kuro said, "But hey don't worry, we're not gonna kill you, yet."
The fake Kuro turned to wood and Assassin ran away. I looked at the wooden Taku in shock, a humunculous modeled after his best friend, and it was made of wood? Just who was he dealing with here? Takuma looked at Lancer, and she looked down at the ground."
"I'm sorry Taku," Lancer said with guilt, "I sad I would know an enemy when I saw one..."
"It's alright," Taku said and pat the young servant's head, "You're not to blame, if anybody should it should be me for falling for this scam to begin with."
"No it isn't!" Lancer said, "You shouldn't blame yourself!"
"Fine," Taku said, "I won't as long as you don't either."
"But..." Lancer began, then sighed, "Fine, I won't blame myself either."
"Good," Taku said, "Now cheer up, I'll get you some Ice Cream?"
"I may be a young but that doesn't mean you should treat me like a child!" Lancer yelled
"Oh come on," Taku said with a laugh, "I'm sure you'll love it, especially after all this."
"If you insist," Lancer said
"I do," Taku said, and smiled at his friend
