Bah... I had a crap load of work to do but I somehow managed to upload this a little faster than I had thought. Anyways... some people to address:
Chinaman8: Thanks and yeah I don't have a beta. God I want to get one (Tears). It's true that I hate Taiga so I'll be taking her out of the fiction by next chapter. You'll see how. I know about the past and present but sometimes it gets confusing and I mix them up so my bad. Now the main quesiton: Hostilities to Rin were only because one: Sakura hate's Rin and Tosaka family as a whole because they abandoned her to Mato clan. Second, Shirou thought Rin was attacking Sakura and didn't think it out so if Rin were to tell them her agenda, I'm sure they'd let her in and Sakura accepts her to some point anyways.
Alucard 180: Yep yep I like how sultry Rider can be but I think she isn't truly interested in Shirou. At least, not in Fate Stay Night. Also, I may love the characterizations of just about everyone in Fate Stay Night but that doesn't mean I love freeloaders. They can get run overed by a car and I'll be there laughing my ass off.
On with the Story!

"Shirou, are you sure you are healed enough to go back to school?" Shirou sighed, not for the first time, on how suspicious Saber was being. She had checked his wounds three times already and still she wasn't satisfied. "For the last time Saber. My body is perfectly healed. Now can you please allow me to go before I'm late for school?"
Shirou placed her hands on her hips and adopted a scolding form. "Shirou. As your Servant, I advise you to not go to something as mundane and possibly hazardous as your school until the war is over."
"Huh?"
She sighed. "The school is a perfect place for other Masters to hide. Furthermore, the school is a area with numerous souls and therefore, numerous degrees of mana. You would not be able to sense any of the Masters unless you yourself have very keen senses."
Shirou grunted. "Look I thank you for your concern but I'm pretty sure nothing's going to happen okay? Sakura has Rider going with her as protection and I can take out any type of magus there is so it shouldn't be that hard to get through."
"Sakura and Rider going to school with you is the exactly what I have been warning you about." Saber tilted her head up stubbornly to meet his gaze. "Have you forgotten that they too are in the war as well? What will happen should they decide to attack you while you let your guard down?"
Shirou sighed. "Look, Sakura is a good girl and I don't think she'll attack me. If anything, I don't think she even wants to be in this war." He then adopted a sheepish expression and scratched the back of his head. "And Rider... well she does have that look like she's going to kill someone but aren't Servants suppose to have certain traits similar to their Masters? I'm sure Rider won't cause unecessary harm to anyone."
Saber merely kept her stare straight and unwavering. Her green eyes searched through his own, trying to find even a hint of discomfort. When she found none, she sighed and lowered her head. "Fine. I shall concede with your wishes but promise me that should there be any trouble, you summon me right away with the command spell."
Shirou nodded. "Sempai! Are you ready?" He arced his head to see Sakura waving towards him from the sidewalk. Although Rider isn't there, Shirou had a very strong hunch that she was nearby in some form. He turned back to give Saber a grin and waved his hand as well before hoisting the briefcase onto his shoulders and walking over towards Sakura. He gave one last look to Saber before turning his attention back to Sakura.
She smiled up to him. "Are you ready Sempai?" The sun shone brightly on her and illuminated her violet eyes, giving her a look that is full of life. Shirou shook his head and grinned at her. "Yeah I'm ready. By the way, where's Rider?"
"She's here next to me. She said that she doesn't trust the school and wanted to accompany me." Seeing Shirou's dubious look, she quickly added. "She's currently invisible. She said that all Servants should have this ability."
Shirou suddenly looked bewildered and after a moment, troubled. Sakura frowned and tilted her head up to him. "Sempai? Is there something wrong?"
"Ah no nothing. Sorry about that Sakura." She smiled and shook her head. "It's no problem at all. Should we get going?"
Shirou nodded and soon, they were already starting their way to school. However, he kept casting a worried eye over back to his complex where a certain golden haired Servant rests.
'If all Servants can become invisible, why doesn't Saber do it too?'
---
"Sakura! Get over here right now!"
Shirou nearly groaned in annoyance at the sound of the voice. He closed his eyes and counted to ten. When he opened them, he was immediately met with the scowling face of one Mato Shinji. He moved forward and immediately placed himself in front of Sakura, who had frozen on spot.
"Is there a reason why you're harrassing Sakura so early in the morning?"
Shinji apparently just noticed that Shirou was right there and immediately jumped back in shock and fear. "E-Emiya! What are you doing here?"
"I come to this school too remember? Why are you so surprised Shinji?"
Shinji opened and closed his mout like a fish with no words coming out. Then, it seemed as if he placed two and two together as he suddenly rounded on Sakura's still form. "You were staying at Emiya's place weren't you!?" He made a move to grab her but Shirou stood in his way. Also, the very air around them tensed, as if a lurking person was just getting ready to attack. Shirou felt a twinge of satisfaction at the feel. It seems Rider was really protecting Sakura after all.
"I don't think you have the right to order her around at all Shinji. If it is true that she's staying at my place, then that means she is under my care and more importantly, my protection. I suggest you walk away like a good little boy and leave her alone."
Shinji's face colored immensely. People had started to stop and look. 'Damn that meddling Emiya!'
He scowled heavily and turned around to leave. "Sakura. If you miss another archery meeting, I will personally petition the captain to have you kicked out of the team! Do I make myself clear?" He left without getting an answer.
Sakura sighed in relief before sending an apologetic glance towards Shirou, who was still facing the retreating form of her brother. However, before she could stutter out an apology, Shirou spoke up in a sharp tone.
"Don't let Shinji walk all over you Sakura. It will only give him more reason to attack you." She lowered her head. "I understand."
Suddenly, a hand was placed on top of her head and Sakura looked up again. Shirou was now facing her and had his hand on top of her head like a true older sibling would do. He smiled. "Don't worry about Shinji trying to force you out of the achery team. I'm good friends with the captain and I'm sure she likes you just as much as she hates Shinji. You'll stay in."
Sakura smiled at him. "Thank you Sempai." They were just about to continue on their way to the school building when another voice stopped them in their tracks.
"Wow, Matou-kun sure looked mad. Though Emiya-kun certainly did a fine job in helping Sakura." They turned around and Sakura stilled again. Her eyes widened in horror at the person before them.
There, standing as if nothing has happened, was the top honor student and Archer's Master, Tosaka Rin. Unaware of their discomfort, Rin casually brushed some of her hair and adopted a curious expression. "But why would Mato-kun be so forceful in making Sakura go back? I thought he hated you."
Sakura didn't answer. The air around her began to distort. It wasn't anything normal people could see as it involved the use of mana. However, it warned Rin immediately that Rider had decided to make her precense known. As if to reply, the air around Rin distorted as well, revealing the lines of her Archer servant.
Shirou couldn't believe his eyes. He clearly remembered Archer having his back take a fierce hit from Saber's sword. He couldn't possibly be healed after that blow so fast! He gritted his teeth in anger and fustration. 'If that is even possible, then his regeneration is deadly. To heal a wound like that would require immense mana and I'm sure Rin didn't heal him herself. This guy... what is he?'
Rin sighed at the sight of their tense expressions and waved her hands in front of her as a sign of surrender. "I'm not here to start any trouble." She said in a exasperated tone. "I was just wondering why Mato-kun was so forceful with Sakura. I'm sure it's not sibling rivalry."
"And why should we believe you? Last I remembered, you tried to attack Sakura and me."
Shirou immediately knew he had dug himself a hole as he saw a vein tick on top of Rin's forehead. Despite himself, he felt cold sweat and backed away slowly. Those narrowed green eyes of hers literally screamed 'feminine fury'.
However, Rin didn't snap at him. Instead, she heaved a deep sigh and calmed down before explaining to him. "I wasn't trying to kill you or Sakura for that matter. I only wanted to propose a team-up against Illyasviel and her Berserker." She crossed her arms and glared at him. "You were the one who suddenly attacked me out of thin air. I was only trying to defend myself."
"Wait... how did you know I became a Master?"
Rin scoffed. "Oh come on. Are you telling me you can't sense mana or something? I knew you were a magus since the first time I saw you. Therefore, there was a good chance that you would be able to summon a Servant and even if you don't your area has a strong boundary field that can serve as a alert when there are other magus or Servants."
Shirou stilled and suddenly remembered that it was he who had assumed Rin decided to attack and ordered a attack of his own without thinking it through or watching for anymore interaction. He must have adopted a sheepish expression as Rin huffed and waved him away. "Well it's no problem now. Surprisingly, Archer has good regeneration and as long as he's not dead, I suppose I can accept your apology."
Shirou sputtered in indignation. 'Apology!?'
"Ano... Tosaka-sempai. Your abrupt appearance into the complex forceful questions must have looked like a danger to Shirou-sempai so that was probably why he decided to attack you." Shirou heaved a sigh of relief as he saw Rin turn to regard Sakura with a surprised expression. 'Thank you Sakura.'
Rin uncrossed her arms and adopted a thinking pose. "Huh... I guess now that I think about it, it did seem rather forceful didn't it?"
Shirou sweatdropped. 'A little would be an understatement...'
Rin nodded, as if satisfied with her train of thought. "Very well. I apologize to you and Emiya-kun for being forceful in my questions and I accept Shirou's apology for attacking me without thinking it through."
"WHAT!?"
"Oi oi no need to be so loud Emiya-kun. I'm right here."
"That's not the point!" Shirou growled and had it not been for the even bigger distortion around Rin, he would have walked over and grabbed her by her school collar. "First of all, I don't remember giving an apology for my actions. Second of all, weren't you trying to get us to 'team-up' or something?"
Rin's expression turned serious and she nodded. "Of course. I'm sure you already encountered Berserker and know first hand just how powerful he really is." Both Sakura and Shirou tensed as memories of that grey giant and his club-axe cleaving anything in sight, including Shirou. He unconciously placed a hand on his stomach and Sakura gave him a worried glance.
Rin nodded at their reactions. "And I know why he is so powerful. His name is probably the most famous in Greek mythology." Shirou felt his eyes widened. The most famous hero in Greek mythology was-! "Heracles, the giant of Greece and son of Zeus."
Sakura gasped and placed her hand to cover her mouth. How could they beat someone like him? Heracles was voiced as the strongest of Greek heroes and the deeds he accomplished in his lifetime as a mortal were legendary! 'It's impossible to beat someone like him! Not even an army could have defeated him. How are we to do so with just two Servants? Even if Tosaka-sempai were to group up with us, the chances of winning would barely go up!'
Shirou narrowed his eyes towards Rin. "Alright." He replied. "We now know the reason why this Berserker is seemingly invincible but why would you want to team up with us anyways? What's your reason?"
"My reason?" Rin arched an eyebrow and gave Shirou a pointed look. "Isn't it obvious? I want to stay in the war. If the highest chance of survival would mean to team up with other Masters then I won't complain." She held out a hand and gave them a smile. "So what will it be?"
Shirou hesitated. On the one hand, having Rin as an ally would mean that he wouldn't have to attack her early on. Should be a good ally and Archer's regeneration made him a good tank against other types of Servants. On the other hand, there is a good chance that Rin would probably betray them later on and attack them when they were at their weakest. 'Damn... this is a hard decision.'
"A-ano... I don't have problem with Tosaka-sempai helping us out."
'Huh?'
Both Shirou and Rin turned their attention to Sakura, who blushed and lowered her voice a little. "I-I don't have a problem with Tosaka-sempai helping us b-but it's your choice Sempai!" She rushed through the last part a little but Shirou heard everything clearly. He scratched his head and began to think the possibilities over again. 'Well... Tosaka would definitely be a good help but...'
Meanwhile, Sakura was beating herself over the head for even speaking up her agreement. 'Stupid!' She berated herself. 'Why are you allowing yourself to accept Tosaka-sempai's help?'
'I can't help it.' A voice replied. 'After all, she's my--'
Sakura quickly shook those thoughts away with force and anger. She shouldn't think about it. Not when it had happened in the past. She won't get bogged down by those memories. Sempai wouldn't accept her if that were to happen.
"Well... if Sakura has no problems with you joining, then I suppose that I don't have any problems either." Sakura snapped her head up and stared at Shirou with something akin to shock. She had half expected him to decline the offer and his accepting it caused her to bite her lip to stop a retort. She shouldn't make one. After all, she was the one who said she didn't have a problem in the first place.
Rin smiled happily at Shirou, showing her beautiful face and its radiant features. Undaunted, Shirou glared at Tosaka and spoke out in a cold voice, devoid of all emotions. "However, if you betray us before the death of Berserker, then your life shall be forfeit. Do I make myself clear?"
Rin nodded, still maintaining her smile, though it had lessen somewhat. "Don't worry. I have no intentions of betraying anyone unless I myself and betrayed upon." She suddenly tensed up and before either Shirou or Sakura had noticed, she was already running across the school yard and to the building.
"Eh-"
"Huh?"
"Sorry! I'll meet you two after school! Is that alright?" Rin shouted to them as she continued running. Shirou and Sakura only stood there, confused and a little wary of her until something happened that made them suddenly turn cold and still.
The school bell rang.
"Crap! No wonder Tosaka was running! We're late!" Shirou cursed and began running as well. Sakura, who had jumped the moment the bell rang, was already hot on his heels. "Damn that Tosaka." Shirou growled to himself. "This counts as betrayal."
---
"Alright so what are you reasons for wanting to team up with us?" Shirou crossed his arms and gave Rin a hard, searching look. He was still peeved with the fact that she ran right passed them without telling them the bell was going to ring, leaving both he and Sakura to sprint as if their lives depended on it. Sakura barely made it on time but he was late and had to suffer the wrath of Fugi-nee's already bruised ego.
Rin sighed and brushed a lock of her hair. "It's simple really. I just want to survive and when possible, win." She turned and gave a small smirk. "I have no interest whatsoever on the Holy Grail but I absolutely hate losing. Therefore, if winning would mean teaming up with other Masters, I have no problem with that provided that they are decent enough to work with."
"And that means us?" Rin nodded towards Sakura then, as if struck by inspiration, suddenly clapped her hands together.
"I know!" She exclaimed. "To show my good faith, I'll help you two devolve the Boundary Field being placed on this area!"
'Boundary Field?'
Rin's enthusiasm suddenly waned as she caught the looks of confusion coming from both Sakura and Shirou. "...You do know what a Boundary Field is... right?"
"..."
Rin sighed and covered her face with her hand in exasperation. 'And they are supposed to be my allies? Maybe it was a mistake after all to try and team up with them.'
"Alright listen up. A Boundary Field is an area that is surrounded my mana shaped into a barrier. It's main purpose is to ward off threats or warn the inhabitants of incoming danger. For example, Emiya-kun's complex has a boundary field that acts as a sentinel and warns the master of that home, if danger is coming."
Shirou nodded. That much made sense since he had sensed danger many times in that home and all had come true. Rin merely tilted her head slightly in confusion but continued to listen.
"However, this Boundary Field does not serve either of those two purposes. From the way the mana feels, this Boundary Field is meant to absorb all the souls that are inside the area."
There was a stunned silence. Both Sakura and Shirou stared at Rin in disbelief. Then, Shirou finally spoke out. "So that means that a Master is at work here."
"That's right."
"Wait." Rin and Shirou gave Sakura a questioning look. "How can you be sure that it is a Master at work? Aren't some Maguses cruel and use human energy as a source of their power."
"That's good insight." On the inside, Rin was impressed. Although Sakura was an unorthodox Magus, she still has a bit of knowledge when it comes to sacrificial magic. "However, since the Holy Grail War has started and this Boundary Field is meant to steal souls, the person behind it is most likely a Master and is using the souls to empower his or her Servant."
"Ah, yes I see now." Sakura hung her head in embarassment. 'Stupid!' She scolded herself. 'Of course it would be a Master. Who else but a Master would want to steal souls during the Holy Grail War?'
"So there are Boundary Points placed all around the school and to show you're good faith, you'll be willing to help us devolve them and allow us to have more time before they activate right?" Shirou pondered over the possibility. While he still didn't fully trust Rin, he had to admit that his magic senses weren't that great beyond tracking an individual's mana flux and he highly doubted Sakura could do it as she didn't know that much about magic to begin with. Finally, with a sigh and a sag of his shoulders, he agreed with her. "Alright, we'll team up for now."
"Good then let's get started." Rin walked over towards Shirou until they were practically touching and placed her hands firmly on his shoulders. Shirou's face immediately flared up in a blush but was speechless at what she was doing.
Sakura simply stared in shock. 'Just what is Tosaka-sempai doing? Is she trying to kiss him right here?'
"Uh... T-Tosaka, what are you doing?" Rin looked at Shirou weirdly and pointed to the branch on top of them. There, a shining red mark was desplayed and it would occasionally let a few ebbings of mana flow out. "There is a Boundary Point right here. I'll need you to help lift me up so I can dissipate the mana charging into it."
"Oh..." Shirou's embarrassment died a little and he managed to stay his stuttering. "Alright, let's get this over with." He lowered his hands to her waist and with a grunt of exhertion, lifted her up high enough to reach the branch.
"Now I don't want you to do any peeking under there or you'll find yourself in a boatload of trouble, pact or no pact." Rin smiled to herself when she heard his sputters of indignation before turning her attention to the marking on the branch. It was already pulsing with mana and the symbols were already glowing. Whoever it was that placed the points around the school must have waited until it was a school day to take the maximum amount of mana available. Rin grinned. Whoever this person was, he'll be in for a rude surprise when he realizes just when the Boundary Field will actually be activated.
With a quick chant, she poured her own mana into the symbol and its red markings immediately turned blue, signifying that it's charge had been dissapated.
"Alright. With this one down, there should only be six more points around the school. We'll just have to go aorund and look for them."
"Eh? There's more?"
"Oh please, you didn't think there would only be one did you?" Rin scoffed at him. "If so, then it would require a lot of mana and the most powerful of symoblic runes. I'm sure a Master wouldn't want to waste all that just to feed a Servant. Now, can you please let me down and let us get back to work?"
"Ah right." Shirou hastily allowed Rin to get off of him and immediately snapped his arms to his sides. He looked away from Rin as his face heated up again.
"Ano... Sempai are you alright?" Dammit. Sakura noticed. She tiilted her head to his direction and casted him a worried glance.
"Don't worry about him Sakura. I'm sure he just wasn't used to feeling a woman's skin am I right?" Damn that Tosaka. Shirou growled in annoyance but it only served to encourage her. Rin held a hand to her mouth and was unsucessfully trying to smother her giggles. "Let's just get this over with." He snapped and began stomping off into the school's direction. He did not wanted to be targeted by Rin right at that moment and he wasn't exactly happy that Sakura found out as well.
"Damn that Tosaka and her stupid tricks."
---
"Phew." Shirou sighed in exhaustion as he leaned against the gates to his home. Behind him, Sakura placed a hand to his shoulder in worry. "Sempai, are you okay?"
"Yeah. I just never expected some of those runes to be on walls and roof tops." Shirou grunted and cracked his back with a light snap. He then nodded towards her and made to open the door.
That is, until a slight amount of killer intent made him stop. It was minute, not even those of weak Magus should project such low killing intent unless on purpose. Regardless, Shirou tensed and placed his hand out to stop Sakura. With a tense hand, he slowly opened the gates.
To be faced with the snarling face of Fugimura Taiga.
"SHIROU! WHAT IN THE WORLD HAVE YOU BEEN DOING!?" He cringed. If there was one thing he absolutely feared, it was the sound of Fugi-nee when she was pissed off. That's the voice that promised extreme pain unless given the best of reasons and given that she was his homeroom teacher, he wasn't exactly happy to hear it.
Behind him, Sakura jumped the moment Taiga's face came into view and visibly shrank back at the sound of her voice. It seriously reminded her of a tiger's roar. Both in loudness and in ferocity. 'I-I can see how everyone calls her "Old Tiger"...' Sakura clutched her head while her eyes swirled around in dizziness. There was something to that voice that made her want to fall to the ground and act dead.
Unbeknownst to their plight, Taiga continued to rage on. "No schedule, no notes, no phone calls, and more importantly, NO DINNER! I want to know right here and right now what you two were doing in the middle of the n-" Taiga suddenly stopped and stared at the two of them again. This time, her eyes narrowed even further and before either could do anything, she grabbed Shirou by the collar and hauled him forward to meet her face. "Don't tell me you two were finding a place alone to yourselves. It's bad enough that you have that 'Saber' girl in our house but now you're trying to build on a Harem or something?"
Shirou sweatdropped. What the hell was she talking about? First of all, it was his house, not hers. Second of all, why would he even be considerring a Harem? Has that woman gone nuts?
Sakura blushed fiercely at the though but frowned slightly at the mention of a Harem. A Harem meant that Sempai would be having more than one girl. Sakura didn't like that. If she was able to be with Sempai, she wanted to be the only girl he has his eyes on. No one else.
"Uh Fugi-nee? To be honest, Sakura and I weren't doing anything and before I tell you anything, can you let go of me first?" A vein ticked on top of Taiga's forehead and before Shirou knew what was happening, he was being shaken like a rag doll.
"FORGET LETTING YOU GO! YOU'D BETTER GIVE A GOOD EXPLAINATION MISTER OR IT'LL BE CLEANING DUTY FOR THE REST OF THE SCHOOL YEAR!"
Sakura was about to protest on the treatment when a new voice stopped her words from the tip of her mouth.
"Taiga-san. I would like to ask you to let go of my Master before you seriously injure him. Have you forgotten that Shirou was already injured this morning? He does not need another injury to add to it."
Taiga turned her attention away from the limp Shirou and casted her glare towards the side, only for it to waver and her stance to tense the moment they caught the same green eyes that stared at her without emotion during their little 'spar'. She mumbled a quiet 'fine' and unceremoniously dropped Shirou to the ground.
"Ow!"
Saber was helping him up from the ground in a second. She casted a narrowed glare towards Taiga before looking away. "Shirou, you are weakened right now. Perhaps it would be wise to rest."
"Y-yeah I think you're right." Shirou managed to grit out. However, just as they were preparing to leave for the house, another new voice stopped them in their tracks.
"Ah! You're all outside! Am I bothering you?" Shirou stiffened in horror. That voice... it's her!
Sakura stilled as well. The familiarity of that voice was hard to miss. That tone, that certain curve tongue, that unmistakeable pitch. Slowly, they all turned and all were immediately greeted with the smiling face of one Tosaka Rin. She was dressed in a red sweat shirt and a black miniskirt as well as black stockings. On the ground beside her laid an enormous duffle bag.
'Wait, what's the duffle bag for?'
Rin smiled cheerfully and grinned at them as she waved her hand. "Well since we're allied up right now, I'll be staying over here. Is that alright Emiya-kun?"
There was a shocked silence for those that heard. Then, Shirou winced as Saber's grip on his shoulder tightened immensely and he was met with her steely gaze. However, what throbbed him the most was the scream that sounded so much like a roar.
"I KNEW IT! SHIIIIRROOUUUU!! YOU WON'T BE MAKING A HAREM ON MY WATCH!"
Rin sweatdropped at the scene of Taiga roaring like an angry beast. She dropped her hand unsteadily to her side and quietly murmured to herself. "D-did I drop in at a bad time?"
'Damn you Tosaka...!'
A/N: Well this is it for this chapter. I know that I was kinda late so to compensate, I made this chapter longer. Still un-betaed and I'm currently looking for one but I dunno if anyone is gonna want to so I'm not holding my breath.
Some things to summarize:
Archer may seem weak but that is only because of the fact that he lost his memories. I like the anime version of it so I'll keep to it. Also, to address his fast regeneration, I wasn't able to finish Unlimited Blade Works route in the game so I couldn't find all the stuff about Archer so I read through the trusty Wikipedia. It mentioned that Archer might still have Avalon inside of him and I liked the idea and decided to incorporate it into the story.
-
In this chapter, I was very VERY tempted to add Rin to the pairings only because from the beginning all the way to the end of the school part, it was very fun to write her character. But, I'm sad to say that Rin won't be in the pairings. From what I gathered, she was more of a mentor to Shirou than his lover in UBW so meh...
-
Yeah yeah... I know I'm putting more effort into Sakura's involvement with Shirou but rest assure! I promise that Saber is the main woman for Shirou. He shows his love for Sakura probably somewhere in the middle of the story or to the end.
-
I've decided on just who the "Dark Servants" will be. Not telling who they are but you'll find out when you get there.
Lastly... I love Fate Stay Night. The characters are well developed, even the villains. They have certain points to them that I can see reason to why they became evil. Not like certain anime villains that are born evil. In my words: "That's absolute bullshit." The only two people I truly hate in the entire Fate Stay Night game are:
Taiga because she's a freeloading, short-tempered... thing that doesn't have a guy to put her in line.
Shinji because he's an arrogant prick and the way he treated Sakura in Heaven's Feel totally pissed me off.
But that's it. Kirei, Zoken, and Gilgamesh may be villains but I see the reason behind it. You guys would probably too if you've seen the story that is Fate Zero.
