[A/N: This will just be my way of introducing a certain blonde so I apologize that it is a little short. Ok, let's roll.]

Unknown location

The girl ran faster than she ever thought possible for her.

Why was she running you ask, the answer is, because her home was attacked by a blonde haired red eyed boy in golden armor.

Her home was small and out in the wilderness, no not many people knew about it, so when the boy attacked, she and her family knew there would be no one to help them, so her Uncle and her older cousin, whom she lived with, told her to run and not to look back.

She did as she was told and ran a fast as she possible, maybe even faster.

The girl ran until she found a cliff with a large river below. The girl stopped, and hoped that the boy hadn't followed her.

Her hopes were crushed when she heard foot steps behind her, she knew they weren't her uncle and cousin because of the sound of metal that sounded everytime the person to a step.

She turned to face her persuer.

The blonde haired boy looked at her with an arrogant look in his eye, it was the look of a king who got to confident in his own power.

"At last... I have found you, my Saber." The blonde haired boy said with a haughty tone.

"Saber? ... that's not my name!" the girl shouted at the boy.

"... I see you have not regained your memories just yet, no matter with my help, you will soon have all that you are returned to you, Artoria Pendragon." The boy said to her, as he once again began to walk towards her.

Artoria froze, how did the boy know who she was, why did he call her Saber, how will she escape, these were some of the thoughts that ran through her head.

The last one Artoria already had an answer to, the river, she would jump into the river and either swim away or drown. Somehow Artoria knew that drowning would be better than being taken by the person in front of her.

Artoria steeled her heart and ... jumped just as the boy went to grab her, but due to her jump he missed.

As plummited down into the water, Artoria looked up at the boy reaching down to her, shock and anger in his eyes, seeing that Artoria couldn't help but feel satisfied by her method of denying the boy what he wanted.

That was the last thing she felt before she closed her eyes and fell head first into the water below.

Artoria awoke in a cave, completely dry dispite having jumped off a cliff into a river.

Artoria sat up and looked around the cave, she saw signs of someone living in the cave. She tried to stand but found that her legs wouldn't move.

"Oh, it seems that you're awake." came a voice from behind her.

Artoria turned to face who spoke, only to find two people instead of one.

The one who spoke was a man in a white cloak and silver hair and eyes, he was handsome, Artoria didn't doubt that but for some reason Artoria felt annoyed when she saw him.

The other was a woman with long blonde hair that flowed like a river and blue eyes. She was beautiful, in Artoria's unbiased opinion.

"Who ... are you?" Artoria asked hesitantly.

"Hmm, it seems that you haven't regained you past memories, very well I shall help you with that." The man said, as he walked towards her.

The boy from before had said those same words, so Artoria assumed that he was going to hurt her. Artoria tried to move but found she couldn't.

"Do not worry I won't hurt you." the man stated, before he poked the center of her forehead.

Artoria felt energy flow into her head and then felt something unlock within her.

Memories not her own, and yet they were,rushed to her, causing a small headache as her brain processed them.

Artoria grit her teeth as she remembered who she really was and how she lived, she began to despair as she remembered all of the things she had done. Suddenly the despair was wiped away when another memory of a time after she died surfaced.

The Holy Grail war, what she wanted to wish for, a chance to start over, and when she was summoned into the war as a heroic spirit, she met him the one who she fell in love with, Shirou Emiya.

"So do you remember who we are yet." The man asked, this drew her out of her memories.

Artoria looked at him and smiled, "Yes. Hello Merlin, hello Vivian." she greeted

"Hello Artoria, it has been some time since I saw you last." Vivian greeted, with a smile.

"Indeed it has, Artoria hows about you tell us about how your life was after we left you last." Merlin said, refering to when he was killed by Morrigan and Vivian took his body and brought it into the lake, her domain.

Artoria complied and told them everything that she remembered, the war with Mordred, how she died, and the Holy Grail War and Shirou.

"... well it seems you were quite busy, even after you died." Vivian said. There was an emotion upon Artoria's face, when she talked about Shirou, that she never thought she would ever see from her, love.

"Indeed, but I'm glad to see that little Artoria had found someone, even if it took her being killed and summoned to a war to find him." Merlin chuckled.

Artoria blushed but didn't deny it. Why would she, she wasn't ashamed of her feelings for Shirou.

They stayed silent for awhile, no one said anything, at least not until a roar filled up the cavern.

"What in the bloody hell was that!!!" Merlin shouted.

"I don't know, I've never heard a monster such as that before, how did it even get in her in the first place!?" Vivian said alarmed.

"um... that was me," Artoria said, blushing, causing the two to look at her in shock. "I was just thinking about Shirou's cooking, and I haven't eaten since breakfast."

"..." The two looked at her then each other, and laughed, well Merlin laughed loudly, and Vivian just giggled.

"I've forgotten about your appetite." Merlin laughed.

"So have I." Vivian giggled, before she up and went to get some food.

The two watched in awe as Artoria ate all the food she was given, and still asked for more.

"Ah, thank you very much, it may not have been Shirou's cooking, but it still was delicious." Artoria thanked Vivian.

"It was no problem, though after you said that I can't help but wonder how this Shirou's cooking tastes." Vivian said.

"Shirou's cooking is without equal, it is as peerless as Excalibur." Artoria said with conviction.

"Oh really? Then now I must try it." Vivian said.

"As must I." Merlin agreed.

Sometime later, Artoria was back to full strength, for her age that is, and was preparing to leave.

"Are you leaving already?" Merlin asked as he and Vivian at the entrance of the cave.

"Yes, thank you very much for everything you've done for me, but I need to find Shirou." Artoria told the two.

"He may not have been reincarnated, like you were." Merlin said.

"No, he was, my heart tells me so." Artoria smiled.

"... then where will you look?" Merlin asked.

"I will just look everywhere, no matter what I will find him." Artoria said, determined.

Merlin stared at her before he sighed "... or I can use a tracking spell that will lead you to where your heart desires."

"..." Artoria stared at him, happiness shined in her eyes.

"That is a great idea Merlin, but she doesn't have any weapons or armor to protect herself with." Vivian said.

"Oh... that is right you are unarmed, that is something I can't fix with magic." Merlin told her.

"..." Artoria looked down at her feet.

"How about I help you out with that Artoria." Vivian offered.

Artoria looked at her and asked, "please help me Vivian."

"Of course, I would have done that even if you hadn't asked." Vivian giggled, before walking deeper into the cave.

"Come with me..." Vivian told Artoria, who followed as asked.

Vivian stopped in front of a large wooden box.

"Open it." Vivian ordered.

Artoria did as she was told and opened the box, when she saw what was inside she gasped. Inside was her sword Excalibur, along with the shards of her other sword, Caliburn.

"Vivian you kept Caliburn?" Artoria asked, she already knew that Excalibur was in her possession, due to Artoria having ordered one of her knights to return it to the river.

"Of course, I knew that it would be needed once again someday, but I never knew why, until now that is." Vivian said.

"But it's broken, how will I use it?" Artoria asked.

"That's where I come in." Merlin said as he walked up to them.

"Here, the tracking spell is connected to this necklace, I've also made sure that you won't be able to lose it, if you do it will return to you within a week." Merlin said handing her a necklace made of a blue sword shaped crystal on a golden cord.

"Merlin... how will you fix Caliburn?" Artoria asked.

"Magic, my dear, magic." Merlin said.

"..." Artoria was stumped, she thought that Merlin couldn't fix Caliburn with magic, when it broke, that was why she had gotten Excalibur from Vivian.

Artoria voice her thoughts, to Merlin.

"Oh I just said that because Vivian wanted to give you Excalibur." Merlin chuckled.

Artoria looked at Vivian, who looked sheepish.

"Now Artoria, stand back and allow me to revive Caliburn." Merlin said, before he began to chant.

Artoria stood back near Vivian, and watched as the shards of Caliburn floated up and reconnected together in a flash of gold light.

The light died down to reveal Caliburn in all it's glory.

"Well here you are, Caliburn is once again whole." Merlin said, as he held Caliburn out to her.

Artoria grasped her hands onto Caliburn, the blade hummed as it recognized its master, its King of Knight.

"Thank you Merlin, Vivian, for everything." Artoria said to the two.

"It's not a problem, but something's missing." Vivian said, before she snapped her fingers and Artoria was engulfed in light.

When the light died down it revealed Artoria in a blue dress and armor over the dress.

"This is..." Artoria muttered as she looked at herself.

"Yep It's your armor, I kept it after you died." Vivian said.

Artoria looked confused, if she knew how she died then why did she want to know about it.

Seeing Artoria's confusion, Vivian decided to explain, "When Excalibur was returned to me, I knew that you had died, so I went and collected your body, and left a copy in its place to be buried."

Artoria nodded in understanding.

"Well now that you're all set, you may leave when you are ready." Merlin told Artoria.

"Yes, I must be going, thank you for everything." Artoria thanked, before she left for the cave entrance and set of to where the necklace would lead her.

Merlin and Vivian stared at where Artoria disappeared.

"She'll be back, right Merlin." Vivian asked.

"Of course... she left Excalibur, she'll be back for it when she is ready." He replied.

"I guess you're right, we'll just have to wait for her return then." Vivian spoke softly.

"Indeed, and I hope that when she does she'll bring this Shirou along, I'd love to try his cook- I mean I'd love to meet him." Merlin corrected himself.

"I agree." Vivian said.
