Chapter 07: Human Restoration

Ritsuka Fujimaru, the last master of humanity walked down the halls of Chaldea. There joyous sounds of celebration from all over. The staff and the servants that stayed were all celebrating the restoration of humanity. Because of Goetia humanity was wiped out throughout time. They had fought many battles to save humanity before they won.

And it did come at a cost, they Doctor Romani was gone, he gave everything up to make sure they won. They had lost Mashu too but she found their way back to them thanks to their pet, Fou. Yeah, that was a surprise to everyone.

Ritsuka walked on, he wondered how long it would last.

Down the halls he found Stheno and Euryale leading along their young sister Medusa and following close behind was the adult Medusa. Ritsuka had tried to get the older sisters to stop picking on Medusas. They called the adult too big and teased the smaller one all while getting them to do whatever they wanted.

All the while Gorgon, the oldest and a monster version of Medusa hid in her room to hide from them. They all knew about her, they could sense each other. He didn't know how to talk about that. Both Medusa's hated their older self knowing what they had become. The sister never mentioned her but gorgon didn't want them to see her, she didn't want to remind them of how they died and what she did. Despite everything they did love their sisters no matter what form they took. He wanted to do something for Gorgon but he was unsure of what do to help something like that.

As he continued to walk through the halls he couldn't help but smile, the servants that remained all seemed happy.

Boudica was walking along with the two young servants Nursery Rhyme and Jack. Boudica was such a mom and both of the young servants never really had someone like that in their lives. In her life Boudica lost her daughters and getting to take care of those two girls always seemed to bring a smile to her face.

Nearby Saber Nero and Lancer Elizabeth were talking about putting a special one time show together to celebrate their victory. Assassin Elizabeth Bathory looked on and rolled her eyes, she had issues with the younger version of herself.

In another hall Tesla and Edison were bicker over which one was more correct over… who knew they would argue about food toppings. They would bicker and that was their nature. Helena Blavatsky was nearby to make sure they didn't cause too much trouble.

Passing by one of the room Ritsuka noticed a kotatsu set up with Oda and Okita resting beneath it and vegging out, Okita helping herself to an orange. They could argue with the best of them they were nice and content for now.

The young master caught the sight the Ruler servant Jeanne held out a magazine excitedly to two Avenger servants, One being Edmond Dantes and the other her alter that he'd come to call Jalter. Neither avenger eager to hear the things the saint was saying. He held back a chuckle, nearby Jalter Lily watched them she would often act like a little sister to the pair. None of the version of Jeanne got to have a proper teenage life becoming a soldier so early so it warmed his heart that these version could just like that, a moody teen, a big sister, or a little kid playing Santa Claus.

Ritsuka had to stop for a moment as he saw a group walking together. There were many tragedies in the world and the dead coming back and spirits often gave them a chance to repair a regret.

The Emiya family….

Damn, there was an unlucky family. It took him a while before he got the Archer Emiya to talk about his life and it was sad. He lost himself in fire, but was saved by a man who gave him a new life after he lost his wife. His hero tried to reclaim his daughter from his wives family and that didn't work out. Eventually he died and left his dreams about being a hero to a young Shirou Emiya.

Shirou Emiya became a servant in red and dangerous with a bow and a sword. Then as fate would have it in a strange timeline He ran into another version of his hero, a servants himself, he meet another version of his father Kiritsugu Emiya and in that world they meet Irisviel Einzenbern a homunculus who took on the holy grail and servant. They returned with them when they left that singularity.

They somehow remembered lives they never lived, Iri and Kiritsugu remembered other worlds and times they had fallen in love. Though Kiritsugu was gloomy Iri was a ball of light and joy and seemed to brighten even him.

Then more strangeness happened, magical girls, three girls arrived well copies of the ones they meet with their memories but… okay, he wasn't totally sure what happened. It was some sort of weird pocket magical girl world.

There was Illyasviel was the daughter of Kiritsugu and iri just from another world. The pair he knew could remember worlds were they did have her but it seemed they always lost her. Emiya did know a life where he saved but she would die a year later. It was hard for him to look at her, remembering the girl that died in his arms.

Still this Ilya was bit confused but found some comfort in finding a version of parents. Then there was Chloe, a magical clone of Ilya who somehow bounded with a version of the Spirit Emiya. Yeah, that was weird for Emiya for a number reasons. Then there was the quiet Miyu, she was from another universe that then went into Ilya's universes. In her universes she was taken in by Kiritsugu and when he died her version fo Shirou took care of her. Emiya was actually happy for her, if he had her brother's memories of just knew how that version had used his spirit to protect her … the master didn't know but he knew that Emiya was happy for it.

"Let's go~! Let's go!"

Okay, how is this one going to be the strangest one. There was a young excited woman in a fluffy tiger suit. Emiya knew her as Taiga but the master knew her a Jaguar Man. A spirit copied and inhabited the body of someone Emiya knew. She acted pretty much the same but it was still pretty weird.

Taiga seemed to be friends with Kiritsugu and when he died took care of Shirou. She didn't seem to remember any of that.

Right now the cat themed servant was pulling along Emiya with the rest of the family following close by.

"Let's chow down! The Kitchen is this way!"

"Let's have a nice family lunch together." Iri smiled happily.

Ilya blushed unsure about all the hectic mess that seemed to be Taiga in every timeline.

Soon Ritsuka arrived at the control center of Chaldea half expecting to see Doctor Romani there….

"Fou fou fou"

Soon a small white squirrel like creature danced around his feet.

"Hey Fou."

"Sempai" Mashu Kyrielight, the demi servant smiled before him. "You're here, good."

Da Vinci, a young looking woman followed behind, "Good, I wanted to get something out of the way. We need to clean up. I just got a new message from the Clock Tower, Mage Association, and the Church. Since everyone lost a year it's been hard for them to get going but they are promising to come here soon. They will send someone people here in the next few days to pick up the other masters."

Da Vinci waved over to a screen that showed the condition of the masters, when this all kicked off many master had been hurt and now remained in status until they could get help. They were all out but at least they were alive so there was some hope.

Various members of the staff were keeping a close eye on them to make sure they would make it until help arrived.

It had been a terribly long journey, one that took him all around time and space to save the world but now he was happy to see the end.

In the center of the control room sat CHALDEAS large sphere that manifested as a perfect miniature replica of Earth, accurate showing of how the world was in every way. Countless little lights glowed on it showing all the lives that now were on Earth. He would lie to say it wasn't a bit of pride knowing he help bring back all those lives after they all vanished.

A loud noise blared from one of the computers. Da Vinci ran to the screen, "That's coming from the systems monitoring the master! Did we lose one?"

A random staff member told her, "No, I just checked everyone was doing fine."

They brought up the picture of the pod the master was in and no one was in it, just a cloud of noises rang out as more screen were shown in the same state.

Then there was a scream, they turned to a corner of the room where one of the staff was starting to dissolve before their eyes. Then another and another.

The Universal Genius Dan Vinci looked around utterly confused, she snapped out of it and typed out commands across her computer. She was desperate to discover what was happening, she wasn't detecting anything.

"What's happening? I'm not detecting anything. Is this an attack? Are the demon pillars back? Wh-" Da Vinci was stunned, horrified even.

The light on the Earth were staring to vanish in rapid succession, all at the same time billions were vanishing.

"Fou! Fou! Fou!" The small animal ran into Ritsuka's arms, The creature whimpered.

"Fou?" The Master Gulped as the creature's tale was starting to dissolve. Soon he was gone, Ritsuka stunned at the dust in his hands.

"Sempai!" Mashu screamed.

The master looked on seeing Mashu's body begin to dissolve before him.

"Mashu!" Both Ritsuka and Da Vinci let out.

Tears started to stream out of her eyes, she had felt this sensation before one. Her glasses dissolving on her face with the rest of her body, "Sempai…" She sniffled, "I don't want to go again… I don't want o leave you."

"Mashu" He yelled at her,"We're not going to-"

"Sempai I-" Her words drifted off as her body fell to the ground in a pile of dust.

Ritsuka's throat went dry, they got Mashu. He watched her die protecting him but she found her way back … he didn't think they would be so lucky.

He touched the dust almost to make sure it was real, that all of this wasn't some terrible joke.

Then he felt a pain in his hand, at the glowing command seals that resting on the back of his hand.

"…No."

He raced out of the room desperate to be proven wrong.

"No!"

He was connected to his servants, all of them and now he feeling them vanish one by one.

"….Mommy?"

He found Jack looking on confused as her body dissolved.

Nursery Rhyme crying in Boudica's arms, Boudica crying with her and holding her tight too afraid to let her go unless she vanish too.

He kept running, he had to keep running.

Lancer Elizabeth looked on horrified as both her older-self and Nero were vanishing before her.

"Medusas! Stop that right now!" Stheno ordered.

Euryale yelled, "Stop it! You're scaring us!"

"Sisters?" Both versions let out terrified.

Both versions of Medusa were vanishing into so much dust. The twos sister remained their and hugged one another to stunned to do much else. They were divine spirits and they felt it, some force tore their sisters away leaving nothing but remains behind.

The halls trembled shaking them out of their stupor, Gorgon sensed it as well she sensed her younger selves had been taken.

Both version of Jeanne vanished into dust while Dantes pulled the younger one away, he was a spirit of vengeance and her felt an anger boil in him, he would not let this stand. Whoever was behind this would soon feel his wrath. But for now, he wrapped his cloak around the sacred and crying Jalter Lily.

"Don't give up now!" Oda yelled trying to shake Okita.

"That's not working! I-I-" Okita coughed up some dust before she was little but ash.

Various caster were doing their best to heal those who were turning to dust to undo whatever was causing this mess. It wasn't working, with some of them vanishing too. Even Gilgamesh was pulling items from his Gate of Babylon in attempt to hold off this strange attack, to no avail.

Nearby by the spoiled goddess Ishtar looked on in horror as much as anyone else. She was the goddess of discord but this was horrible to even her. She watched Tesla dissolve trying to punch Edison one last time. It just made the Lion faced servant confused as he found his face covered in ash.

The blonde haired goddess turned to her blonde double, "Ereshkigal! Stop it! I know you're the goddess of the underworld and-"

Ishtar stopped talking when she met the other goddess' eyes, she was trembling and crying.

Her body turning to black dust.

"I- I- I I'm not doing this! I'm not!" She protested to her tears, "I don't want to go! I was having fun! I was happy here. I was happier than I have ever been. I-"

Ishtar was a loss for words, what could take a goddess of death so easily, what kind of power could terrify her like that.

Ritsuka ran and ran and all he saw was that people were vanishing. He found his way to the cafeteria that was a mess. The Knight of the Round table were trying to stay calm but as people including their own member were vanishing.

"Saber!" Emiya screamed.

There was a young woman in a blue dress fading in Archer Emiya's arms.

She smiled as she vanished into so much dust.

"Father!"

"Your Majesty!"

"King!"

"Saber!"

Arthur!"

Various Knights yelled out.

"What's happening to meow!" Jaguar Man yelled out in a panic taking a bite of her food as she vanished.

"Miyu! Please hold on!" Ilya held Miyu as they both cried.

"Yeah, come on, someone here has to figure out something." Chloe mustered up a smile hugging them too.

Iri held out her hands trying to use magic to heal the scared girl. But soon like so many others she was little more than dust.

There was a flash of light and a man with a beard collapsed before the master.

"There you are."

Click.

Assassin Kiritsugu Emiya held a gun to his forehead and Emiya raised a pair of swords to the man's neck.

The man looked around, "Huh? This weird, it looks like the Emiyas are all intact. I think thats a first for any timeline under any reason."

"Talk." Kiritsugu growled, "Explain why you did this Kaleidoscope."

The man huffed, "This isn't my doing." He held out his hand which started to dissolve, "

That was Kischur Zelretch or Kaleidoscope a magus with power travel to other worlds also he was a vampire.

"Look, I don't have time so listen," He turned to the master, "This is affecting the whole world. The Church, the Clock Tower, The mage association, the Dead Apostles Ancestors, Merem Solomon, the Crystal Valley, ORT, and every mundane in the world are being affected. Even Alaya and Akasha were crippled by this!" He pushed into the master's hands a Jewel sword with a try chuckle, "This might help." He hissed as he felt more of his body dissolve, he was a vampire and his body natural tried to restore it's to a previous state but even adding more and more magic into the process was jut buying him time in a loosing battle.

"You're not my first choice, You are Humanities Last Master and our best bet. You must find the source of this to stop it! To undo it!"

"How? I don't know what's happening? Where is it coming from?"

"I don't know. I just know its effect everywhere, even creatures on other worlds and even other un-" The ancient vampire vanished into dust like so many.

Ritsuka held the sword in his hand as silence settled as the disaster seemed to pass. He wasn't sure how he was going to do it but he was going to get his friends back. He was going to save everyone.

He had lost too many already he wasn't going to let any thing take anyone else. He could feel it, his servants felt the same way. They would find out who did this and put a stop to their plans.


Author's Notes: Okay, so I'm going to be real with everyone. I started writing this back early january. Like right after the event in fgo. So I beat the game with everyone and came up with this little story and just never got around to writing it. I had to leave a lot of servants out because lets face it there is a lot to work with and none of you would want to read a 20 pages story where I keep saying this and this guy gets dusted. I think the intertesting thing is peoples reactions and what they do. So anyway, one month to go before avengers four. In the meanwhile let me know what other worlds you want me to destroy.
