Life at Chaldea – VIII - B Team Assemble!
Now that the list of Potential Masters was complete, the remaining masters. Sigmund, Hakuno, Dimitri, Haruna, and Liliane. Gathered around and looked at the list while preparing for the next mission.
Haruna looked over the list of potential Masters as well as their profiles, the first batch showed as follows.
Mashu Kyrielite
Zhan Ai
It features a pale-skinned young woman wearing the Medical Division uniform with short black hair with her bangs covering one of her eyes while wearing red-framed glasses.
Samael Justiniano
It features a fair-skinned young man with slightly slicked-back hair and dark brown eyes that showed dark circles around it while slightly covered by a pair of dark framed glasses.
Azuna Bisnar
It features a fair-skinned young woman with shoulder length hair and dark brown eyes.
Dylan Cline
It features a dark-skinned man in his late twenties with black hair swept to the side and soft dark brown eyes.
Gabriela Queiroz
It featured a woman in her late twenties with fair skin and had her chestnut hair done in a single braid as well as light green eyes.
Yasemin Demiroren
It featured a fair-skinned young woman with light brown eyes and heir that is obscured by a white hijab.
Apollonia Lorio
It features a pale-skinned young woman with dirty blond hair done in a pair of short twin tails and a pair of light brown eyes behind a pair of reading glasses.
Phillip Otto
A pale-skinned young man with messy dirty blond hair that was long enough to cover his grey eyes.
The list goes on being able to reach up to one team and two others that can fill the gap where Ritsuka and Shiori will fill at least until the two will recover.
"What do you think Sigmund?" Haruna asked as she handed him the list. Since Acre, Sigmund, and Haruna where more or less the leader and second in command due to how they led the mission right after Ritsuka and Shiori's fatal wounding.
"Let's have Mashu and Zhan fill up the spaces for Ritsuka and Shiori," Sigmund said as he placed the papers on the table.
"And while we're at it let's do a change of servants as well," Dimitri pointed out. "I listed down the servants we'll use for the next Mission."
Dimitri handed a list of Masters, including Zhan and Mashu, and their potential Servants.
Team A
Mashu Kyrielite - Saber
Hakuno Kishiyama - Lancer
Zhan Ai - Archer
Liliane Chevalier - Rider
Haruna Mizushima - Caster - Deputy
Dimitri Zima - Assassin
Sigmund Forvedge - Berserker - Leader
"That settles it then," Liliane declared as she finished reading the reports. "We'll take one servant, the strongest one in our roster in this case, and while we're at it we should orientate Team B by heading off in a supply run."
Team B
Dylan Cline - Saber
Azuna Bisnar - Archer
Gabriela Queiroz – Lancer
Apollonia Lorio – Caster
Yasemin Demiroren – Rider
Samael Justiniano – Assassin
Phillip Otto - Berserker
"Sounds like a decent idea let's go see the new team then." Sigmund pointed out.
Dylan Cline entered his room quietly, when he learned that he would be sending out into battle as a Maser he had mixed feelings, one side has him excited to see where this will go and how many lives he can save.
Another means that he will be fighting again, something he left behind in the past. With a defeated sigh he walked towards his locker where he kept his old stuff and within it was a dozen black keys and a picture of his kids.
"Back into the fray again I suppose," Dylan muttered quietly as he grabbed the Black Keys and the picture of him smiling around several children, a small smile made its way into his lips. "At least this time I'm fighting for a greater cause."
As soon as he left his room he immediately spotted a Phillip walking down the hallway.
"Oh hey, Phillip." He waved at the younger male with a smile walking towards him.
"Dylan." He said calmly, fortunately, the two were already acquainted prior to becoming masters so it was fairly obvious that the two knew each other at least for a brief moment.
"Looks like we'll be teammates for the missions," He said placing his arm on Phillip's head due to their massive height difference.
"In any case, I hope I won't get too involved in the fighting." He frowned as he took the arm off, earning a chuckle from the older male.
"Don't worry," Dylan smiled at him. "It'll be fine, you guys got me after all."
"And our servants." Phillip retorted.
"I guess that means I won't be able to oversee the progress of the Decryption then." Gabriela sighed as she closed the copy.
"Who knows, maybe you'll meet the man himself and ask him questions of it." One of her co-workers said as she looked around the Occult Division workplace one more time before she and the rest of the soon to be B Team members.
"I hope so," she said as she made an excited smile. "Though I better hope it isn't some writings of a drugged writer."
"That's disappointing." They all laughed, eventually the Supervisor, Reina smiled, something the others rarely see. "Good luck out there."
"Of course," Gabriela said confidently. "It's you guys I'm more worried about, who knows what mess you'll all make."
They all chuckled as she waved and left the workplace, along the way she spotted another fellow teammate.
Apollonia skipped happily in the hallways as she learned that she will be joining the master Roster she was ecstatic who knows what she will see in the past and which famous people will she meet in those times, in the corner of her eye she spotted Gabriela who was happily talking with Yasemin.
"Hi everyone!" She said cheerfully as she linked her arms with Gabriela and Yasemin. "Fancy running into you two here."
"Well we were about to head for the Orientation room with the rest of the B Team wanna hang out with us for the time being?" Yasemin smiled at her.
"Of course!" Apollonia smiled back as they made their way into the Orientation room.
Azuna held back the urge to scream in delight, she had just learned that she will become Master, her thoughts immediately went to hoping she can have Kiritsugu or Shirou as her servant. Or perhaps even-
"You know they're both taken right?" A familiar voice stopped her in her tracks, she turned around with an annoyed glare at Samael who was casually leaning on the doorway.
"Shirou, according to Mordred already has Artoria, her "dad" and Kiritsugu is married too," Samael explained adding quotation marks on the dad part.
"Can I at least dream of it SJ?" She retorted.
"You can." He teased as he walked away. "Of course the dream ends when the dreamer wakes up."
"You say that but you're excited too aren't you?" She teased back.
"Maybe," A smirk made its way into Samael's lips as he walked away, Azuna scoffed. "I wonder who will be my servant, I hope it's a handsome and single one."
"Keep on dreaming Abi." Samael chuckled as he pulled out an electric cigarette and started smoking. Along the way, he ended up running into Stella, his former boss.
"SJ," She greeted him, her eyes then fell on the E-Cigarette on his hands. "I didn't know you actually smoke."
"Only when something is on my mind," He commented. "Or when I'm stressed."
"Then which one is it?" She asked him. "What are you smoking for?"
"Both it just so happens." Samael joked, causing her to chuckle. "You think we have life insurance for this?"
"You didn't read the contract when you signed up for this?"
"Nope." He shrugged. "Well, I guess I'm heading out."
"Good luck out there," She called out.
"No promises." He muttered quietly.
The B Team gathered at one of the Presentation halls, one large room designed similarly to a theatre accompanied with a holographic projector for presentations, that were provided by the superiors and waiting for them was Dimitri who was calmly sitting at a chair.
"Awesome you're all here." Dimitri smiled at them as he stood up while the others took various seats across the hall. He grabbed the tablet next to him and tapped on the screen showing the logo of Chaldea. "Let's begin the orientation."
A young man was lying the ground inside a massive courtyard of what appears to be a mansion. As soon as the young man woke up he saw another young man squatting over him, who looked very much like him save for the streaks of white in his black hair that resembled that of a Fleur-de-lis and was holding a marker several inches away from his face.
The other young man, realizing that he had just woke up threw away the marker and said. "Well, good to see you've woken up. Do you remember anything?"
He winced at the question as his hands immediately went into his chest where he has been recently shot and died. At least that's what he remembers.
"I'll take that as a yes," the other one nodded as he offered his hand. "What's your name?"
"Ritsuka..." He replied as he got up. "Ritsuka Fujimaru."
"Well then Ritsuka," He smiled at Ritsuka. "We got a lot of work to do so we better get to it."
