Rin was walking through the school halls think about what had happened last and sighed before leaning on a wall near Issei's office
"Are you okay?" Ayako asked as she approached Rin
"No I'm not" Rin said
"What happened?" Ayako asked
"Shiro's house was attacked last night and Daphne was kidnapped. Plus Fujimura-sensei was admitted to the hospital, not to mention Shiro woke up early this morning and isolated himself in his shed to fix his broken armour from a previous fight and didn't come out" Rin said
"Ok that's seriously not good" Ayako said
"What isn't?" Issei asked before Ayako and Rin explained "My word, I suggest that he stay at home for the next couple of days, losing a loved one would be tough on anybody" Issei said
"Do you know who it was" Ayako said
"Don't tell us it was that witch" Issei said
"Yeah it was' Rin said scowling
"Why didn't you help?" Issei asked pushing his glasses up
"Sleeping enchantment; I couldn't wake up until she left the area" Rin said
"Okay, now I think I might know where she is" Issei said
"What?" Rin asked shocked
"Don't worry, I'm not dumb enough to actually go there and pick a fight" Issei said as he walked away 'but I may have to, if need be'
"Do you think he's okay?" Sakura asked standing outside of Shiro's shed
"He's been in there all night working on that armour of his, so I don't know" Ruler said
"Should we do something?" Illya asked
"For now, I think its best we leave him alone" Ruler said as she walked away from the shed, unaware that Shiro heard what they said as he removed the damage layer of Kevlar to check the titanium underneath
"Still intact, so I'll have to replace the Kevlar though; I'm guessing that's what took the most damage; there's a small dent in the armour but nothing I can't bash out" he said as he set to work on it
'darh os flesruoy hsup t'nod' Tenshi said
"I have to" Shiro said he removed the titanium panel from his armour and placed it on a small forge while he measured out some new Kevlar
'dne eht ni thgirla eb lliw gnihtvreve' Tenshi said
"But they're not right now. Caster only needs two more servants and then she's won" Shiro said as he just stood at his workbench
'tey tsuj now t'nevah ehS' Tenshi smiled
"And what about those she's capture, what about Daphne" Shiro said looking down
'reh evas lliw uoy, thgirla be ll'ehs' Tenshi softly said before kissing Shiro's forehead
"If you say so" Shiro said
'tser emos teg won, os yas od I' Tenshi said before disappearing
"How can I understand her if she speaks backwards?" Shiro asked as he collapsed in the hammock he kept in the shed
After school Issei walked up the steps to his family's temple. Something he had been avoiding since he started acting as the Iron Fist
"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Ayako asked
"No" Issei said frowning as he looked up
"So why are you here?" Ayako asked
"I'm going to try and find her for Shiro, so he can take her out" Issei said
"But you have to know this is seriously dangerous right?" Ayako asked
"I do" Issei said
"Mistress two teenagers approach" Assassin said
"It is most likely the heir to this place" Caster said as she continue to focus "Though I do have to an odd feeling about why he's here"
"Should we investigate it anyway?" Assassin asked
"No, leave him for now" Caster said "we have more important matters to attend to" she said as she walked over to where she had Saber, who was now dress in a white strapless dress, a white stain choker, white stocking with dark blue lace and white opera gloves. Her posture forced her to bend at the hips with the dress' skirt pulled up so the blue suspenders Caster made her wear. "It won't be long my dear" Caster said running her hand up Saber's leg and back before stroking her cheek
"I'll never join you" Saber said
"Shh, my dear. You'll join me one way or another; and if it isn't willing well...I'll enjoy breaking your mind before enjoying your body" Caster said in a sultry tone
"Not if I have anything to do with it" Saber grunted
"Hush dear Saber...hush" Caster said placing a finger over her lips
"Master" Archer said
"What is it?" Caster asked
"I can't see the boy" Archer said
"WHAT!" Caster shouted as she turned into butterflies and flew out of her hiding place.
"Good that will give you some time" Archer said
"Why are you helping me?" Saber asked
"Trust me, it's easier to join her willingly" Archer said "So are you going to do it, or do you have to suffer more"
"What do you mean?" Saber asked
"Trust me, you don't want to find out" Archer said
"I could see him, he's stopped halfway up the stairs. Now to continue the turning of the Saber" Caster said as she placed her hands on Saber's head and made them glow drawing strained screams from Saber
"I yield, I'll surrender to your control...master" Saber said as a tear rolled down her cheek.
"Good girl. Now for the Shielder" Caster said
Shiro woke up from his rest and picked up his billy club making noise so he could look around, one of the things he noticed was that his armour had been fully repaired. Confused her ran his hand over it
"I figured you needed a break" a voice said as a hooded figure stood in the doorway to the shed
"WHO ARE YOU?" Shiro asked grabbing his billy club looking around
"Shiro, are you okay?" Illya asked
"Did you see anyone here?" Shiro asked looking around
"No, are you okay?" Illya asked as Shiro made his way over to his armour which was now repaired
"I'm...not sure" Shiro said
"I think you need more sleep" Illya said
"And I think something's going on here, but I don't know what" Shiro said as he picked up his billy club and spun it around
"Like what?" Illya asked
"No idea" Shiro frowned.
Ritsuka and Mash were hiding in a few bushes while looking at the temple
"Are you sure about this senpai?" Mash asked
"No, but we have to do this" Ritsuka said before he was pulled back
"Sen!" Mash said doing the same thing, Mash looked ready to swing when she saw it was Ayako and Issei holding them back
"What are you two doing here?" Issei asked
"We're going to take down Caster and rescue Daphne" Ritsuka said "What about you"
"We're here to try and draw her out so we can find where her lair is" Issei said
"Good plan" Ritsuka said
"So since we're here, you can go home" Ayako said
"Yeah that's a dumb idea" Ritsuka said
"Why do you say that?" Issei asked
"I'm the only one with command seals under his control" Ritsuka said
"Even more reason for you to go home!" Issei shouted
"Found you" Assassin said
"Ah Shit!" the four teenagers said
"MASH!" Ritsuka said as Mash turned into Shielder and smack Assassin with her shield before the four ran off, Assassin then jumped down as Rider, Lancer and Archer appeared
"After her" Assassin said
Shielder quickly swung her shield in front of her as Rider's chains came after her. Looking behind her she saw Archer was there swinging his blade down, adjusting her stance so the blade bounced off of her shoulder armour allowing her to kick Archer before flipping back and smashing Rider with her shield
"MASH! I hereby use this command seal to assure your victory!" Ritsuka said using a command seal to enhance Shielder's attacks
"Thanks senpai" Shielder said as she headbutted Rider before back kicking Archer, Ritsuka had to take a moment and remember how to breath after seeing how beautiful and graceful his servant was.
"HEAD'S UP!" Ayako said grabbing her bow and firing an arrow at Assassin before turning around while firing another arrow at Rider and just as she was about to fire an arrow at Archer, Lancer appeared out of nowhere and sliced her bowstring "HEY!" she yelped while roll dodging as the mad servant tried skewering her until Issei ran in with his hand augmented with chi to stop the spear from piercing Ayako's chest
"you have to be more careful" Issei said
"Thanks" Ayako said "But I think I can take down this guy
"So, how are you going to do that, I'm an immortal hero" Lancer said
"And I'm a teenage girl" Ayako smiled sweetly before pulling out the dirtiest attack in any teenager's playbook and planted her foot into Lancer's ball "One swift kick there and immortal heroes will fall like anyone else" she said scrambling away giving Issei the chance to punch Lancer in the head, making him recoil. Issei smirked before he looked behind him and paled
"No" Issei said
"It can't be" Ayako said
"Okay we're screwed" Ritsuka said as standing there in full royal regalia was Saber holding her blade of wind
"I am sorry my friends" Saber said as she dashed forward
"MASH!" Ritsuka shouted as Shielder barely blocked Saber's strike while skidding back, having her attention focused on Saber blinded her to the attack from behind. Time slowed as Ritsuka rushed in and took the attack from Archer made
"MASTER!" Shielder shouted as he collapsed
"Mash, are you okay?" he asked trembling
"I am" Shielder said as Ritsuka removed the bklade from his back.
"Good" he said fainted
"MASTER!" Shielder cried
"Archer!" Saber said glaring at her teammate
"He wasn't supposed to do that" Archer said
"RITSUKA!" Ayako said as she and Issei ran over to him "can you do something?"
"I'll try" Issei said as she placed his hands on the wound channelling his chi into the wound making it close 'Don't you dare give up on us"
"Mash?" Ayako said as she picked up the blade that was covered in Ritsuka's blood
"I know what Caster is going to do to me" Shielder said before placing the blade against my throat "And I am going to stop her plans right here"
"DON'T!" Issei shouted scared
"I don't care" Shielder said before she moved her hands so the blade was pressing against it
"And if you died her plan will continue anyway, but at least there will be a chance to bring you back" Issei said
"I'm sorry...please tell senpai I love him" Shielder said before she threw the blade away "What, no"
"I love you as well Mash" Ritsuka said standing up, walking over to her weakly before kissing her romantically
"You used a command seal didn't you?" Shielder asked
"I did, I can't lose you forever" Ritsuka said he said before he placed his forehead against hers
"How sweet" Caster said appearing while shoving Rulebreaker into her back
"NO!" the teenagers said as the last command seal left his hand joining Caster's collection of seals
"I'm sorry" Shielder said before turning around and kneeling "What is your command my master?"
"Crush them" Caster said
"Yes master" Shielder said as she prepared to strike her former master when Issei rushed in with his fist glowing as he punched Shielder's weapon creating a massive shockwave knocking everyone back including Issei and Caster
"What the heck was that?" Ritsuka asked as he got back up
"I don't care, come on!" Ayako asked dragging her kohai away.
Once they were at the school they recovered after what just happened when Issei looked up at the temple
"We're screwed, we're totally screwed" Issei said
"Dude we're pass screwed" Ritsuka said
"You're right...we're fucked!" Issei said
"What was I suppose to do, let her kill herself?" Ritsuka said about to punch Issei
"Guys calm down" Ayako said "We need to calm down and think about things"
"So who is going to tell Shiro?" Issei asked
"Tell me what?" Daredevil asked showing up
G'day Guys Grizz here and wow that was probably one of the most intese chapter I've done for this yet and I apologise if anyone thought that I was going to actually do that to Shielder in fact it was just a last minute thing I added in the story. Now another thing I wanted to do in here was to have a fight with any of the usual fighters which is why Ayako joined in on the action, since Daredevil will have several fights coming up
Now I must inform you guys that...there is only 2 chapters left and then I'm going to be preparing for the sequel, so the overseer will be revealed soon which is going to be fun to reveal
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside
