Ch 34 One has Joined and the Other Too

Lancer of Christianity stood before Humanity's final master, ready to form a temporary contract. Behind him were Lancelot and Galahad, ready to defend him if anything goes wrong. "Are you sure you want to make a temporary contract, Lancer? You know what wil-"

"I understand what will happen, and I'm fine with that," Lancer spoke out, knowing what he's getting in.

Ritsuka held out his hand, his Command Seals glowed. "Take heed, my will creates your body, and your body shall be the sword of justice for the innocents." Lancer knees before the master attempting to forge a contract.

"If you obey this will and reason then obey me and be the tool for the protection of Humanity!" Lancer of Christianity's body glowed a light hue, the contract has been forged. His appearance changed, he still retains the trench coat, but his arms and legs were dawned in silver armor with purple and gold detailing. A silver chest plate was covering his chest with a purple jewel in the center.

"Master, my name is Lancer of Christianity from this moment forward I shall be your spear." Lancer pledges his service to the Magus. "My name is a sacred one and shall not be relieved until the I deem it right." He informed Ritsuka.

"Happy to have you onboard, Lancer." Ritsuka smiles at the new Servant.

Lancer stood from the floor, inclining his head. "It's an honored master, to serve you." he smiles.

"Another one has joined you once again, master. It seems Merlin was right about your Harem X skill." Lancelot chuckles at his joke.

Ritsuka just smirked at his "father-in-law" for making a bad joke. "Seriously, Lancelot is that really what you got as a joke?"

"Apologies, master." Lancelot inclines his head apologetically.

Galahad rolled his eyes before Lancer spoke up, "Master, what's the plan now?" Lancer asked his new master of the next move.

The young director looks at the Lancer with a smile, "Now? Now I have to find people to observe that little group Jane and her friends formed." He told the newest Servant. "I want to see if they can defend themselves."

Galahad nodded, "I see, you're just giving them a little push."

"Giving this world back its hope." Lancer saw what his new master's plan was from the moment he spoke. "So that's why your Humanity's final master, I like it," he smirks.

Friday, October 27th, 1995, 4:00 PM

Jane looks over at the entrance of the Room of Requirements, today was the day that Ritsuka's observers will observe the gathering. "Jane, is this how you flick the wand?" Neville asks his friend if his hand movement was correct.

"Mmm?" Jane looks at her Godbrother seeing his hand movement. "Try flicking your wrist, Neville. From there, you should be able to cast the spell better."

Neville nodded, flicking his wrist. "Stupefy!" the spell knocked the stick out of the training dummy's hand.

Jane smiles before turning her head back to the entrance. "Jane, you can't just keep watching the entrance like that." Hermione walks over.

"Sorry, I was distracted," Jane said, mentally preparing herself for when they come.

Hermione looks at the entrance, "You know, ever since we got detention with Ritsuka. Flat seems to be around less and less, I wonder why?"

"That's because he's Ritsuka's Servant." Ron arrived after helping some younger members with their wand movements. "He might have some tasks he must do."

"Or maybe he's right here." Everyone looks at the entrance of the room, Flat was standing in front of the doorway with Waver and an old man in a red Chinese with rounded glasses. "Hi! We're here everybody!" Flat waved.

"Professor Velvet, you're here!?" Neville gasps seeing the professor from the Mundane Culture Professor standing there, looking around the setup.

"(Why is Professor Velvet here?)" Colin whispers,

"(Is he going to report us?)" Another student whispered from Hufflepuff.

"(Who are the other two? The one in the blonde hair looks cute.)" A female Gryffindor whispered.

Jane coughs, being the mature one here walks up to the observers. "Professor, Flat," she looks at the old guy, just standing there. "Sir, how may I help you?" she asked the three.

(Insert Lord El-Melloi II's Case Files -Rail Zeppelin- Grace note Original Soundtrack (02. Nervous talk)

"Tacky, a poor set up for a 'secret organization' there's no exits in case of an emergency. However, I do commend the secrecy of the room." Waver looks around, taking note of everything around he's seeing. "Though quality is much important than quantity. What's your opinion captain?" Waver looks over to the old man.

Li Shuwen studied the area, the training equipment, the spacing, and the instructors. "I can see that the young Ms. Potter is well trained in combat with the wand. However wand training isn't enough, each one of you needs physical training."

"P-Physical!?" Ginny froze hearing the word. She turns around abruptly hearing that word, she walks up to the Lostbelt Servant giving him a piece of her mind. "You wouldn't dare on forcing us to sweat! My hair will get all frizzy and my skin all disgusting!" she exclaims.

"Master has been through my rigorous training, I'm sure you all will be satisfied with the result." Li Shuwen responded calmly.

Ron sounded curious about what kind of training Ritsuka went through. "What things did Ritsuka do during your training?" he asked.

Many others were a bit interested in what training this elder person gave Ritsuka back in their world. "Yeah, what was it called that Muggles do on the floor?"

"Suit ups?" One answered.

Waver noticed the lack of Physical Education in this academia, the only one that is considered as sports-related is the game Quidditch and Flying. But that course is only for the First years. "They're called sit-ups, and pushups. Within the Mundane world these anaerobic exercises that build muscle strengthen." He lectured them a bit.

"So, we're going to learn them?" Cho asked the group of well-versed Muggle community people.

Flat grins, placing both his hands on his hips. "First let's see what you all are made of!" The Assassin smiles, giving some encouragement to the young children.

"YEAH!"

Lavender tugs on her friend's sleeve, feeling the motivation from the Assassin. "Aren't you excited, Ginny-Ginny?" The young Gryffindor looked at the president of the Harry Potter walks away, heading towards the door.

Ginny looks at everyone, giving them all a displeased look. "I was expecting my love to be here not his lackeys. I will not be a part of something that my love won't be a part of."

"Ms. Weasley, this is not a playful club you think this is." Waver looks over to the young arrogant girl. "Ms. Potter and her friends created this gathering to learn and defend themselves that the Ministry failed to do. Our master sent us to evaluate this gathering, if this order can handle themselves then we won't intervene however if we see some problems, we'll give a slight push." He explains to the stubborn girl.

"What?" Ginny looks at him, confused about what he's saying.

Jane understood what the Pseudo-Servant means. "He means if you don't like how things are then you can forget about joining us." She stated, her eyes staring at hers.

Ginny looks at her followers, not wavering to join her in leaving. "Fine, this idea was stupid anyway." She huffed away, leaving the Room of Requirements.

Jane sighs, chuckling lightly. Flat notice, walking up to his master's 'sister'. "Are you alright, Jane?" He asked the Witch.

"Hehehe, I really wanted to do that for a long time." Jane chuckles, falling on her knees.

"Jane," Flat grabs on her shoulders, helping her back on her feet. "Are you alright?" The Assassin asked the young woman.

Jane looks up at the Assassin of Grimmauld. She stares right into his light blue eyes that were staring at her back, a small ping within her heart pound as he holds her. Jane couldn't help but blush, "Y-Yeah, thank you Flat."

Hermione saw the little interaction between the two, she giggles along with some of the female occupations.

Waver and Li Shuwen notice the young girl's small attraction to the Assassin, "(She's going to be devastated once more if this keeps up.)" The captain of one of Chaldea's platoons whispers to his ally.

"(Flat may be an idiot sometimes, but he knows very well a Servant and human relationship comes with risk.)" Waver crosses his arms, watching them closely.

Li Shuwen nodded; he looks over the young students clearing his throat loudly. "Aright, who here is teaching the group how you all defend yourselves?" He asked seeing Hermione and Ron raising their hands.

"This will take some time." Waver sighs, seeing that there are only three tutors here. (End song)

Ginny was walking alone in the halls, fuming with hate, resentment, and most of all alone. She shook her head off from those feelings. "I don't need them, who needs a stupid club like that. I'm much better than them."

"Indeed you are, Ms. Weasley." Ginny turns around, seeing Rita standing behind her. "After all that you've done for them, finding members, spreading the word to those who want to make a stand. They mistreated you, left you behind." She spoke to her.

"Yeah, you're right! They did mistreat me!" Ginny gave into her words of deception. "You always have the best plans, Rita. Do you have one to get to my goals?" she asked the journalist

Rita smiles, seeing that Ginny is willing to do anything she asks. "Well, I need you…"

Jane huffed after a dueling session with Ron, she stood up looking at everyone in the room. "And that is how you use stunners while you move, note to use them effectively you need to be on the move always. If you're in one place, then the opponent will take the advantage." She told the entire room.

Everyone nodded, understanding what Harry's sister means after the demonstration. "Now, I want everyone to partner up into pairs, from there just practice the movements," she instructs the group.

"OKAY!"

Jane walks over to the side, looking for a bottle of water. "Are you looking for this?" Flat handed her a water bottle.

"Um, thanks." Jane took the bottle, opening the cover, and drank the liquid.

Flat sat down next to her, having a smile as wide as a powerline. "You were good out there, your explanation on the wand movements, advice on how to properly use the stunner spell, it's all well detailed." He commented.

"Is that a compliment or an-"

"A compliment, I was really impressed and disappointed." Flat said, clutching his hand. "You are just a minor, a child in our eyes to us Servants. For you to act like an adult at this time, it takes a lot of courage." He commented on her courage.

Jane looks at him confusedly, "What do you mean?" she asked.

Flat chuckles at Jane's comment. "I mean you're mature given your age. You feel like you should be the one taking the mantle of hope after your brother. But that's just foolish." He stated.

The red-haired girl was taken aback by his words. His words are like an insult than a compliment." How dare you to say that-"

"I'm not finished yet," Flat snaps back at her, his eyes are now expressing his seriousness. "You are putting yourself in a difficult position that anyone could cave. That is a fool's errand, but if you want to continue this path don't do it alone." He looks at the training students, trying their hardest.

Jane looks at him, hearing his words to her. She then diverts her eyes to where the others are, "Friends are friends for a reason, Jane. Don't feel that you need to shoulder that burden on your own. Master is a fine example of what you mustn't do."

"Wait, what?"

Flat stood up, stretching his arms. "You need to talk to the old man there, Alter Ego, Saber, Saber, or Mashu." He helps her up on her feet before walking to the others.

Jane thought for a moment, letting his words resonate within her. "Flat!"

The Assassin looks at Jane, blushing across her cheeks. "Thank you, for your words." Jane thanked him.

Flat merely waved his hand at her, walking over to his fellow Chaldeans.

Later that evening, Ritsuka looked over the reports of the Mana on this world that his researchers gathered. His face was written with concern about what he read. "So the Mana pools we've mapped are decreasing?"

"Indeed, master the Magus we have been studying the ley lines of this world and concluded that it's decreasing at an alarming rate," Agravain reported to his master.

Ritsuka places his hand on his chin. "If this keeps up-"

"This world can no longer support Heroic Spirits sent by the Counter Force." Da Vinci hypothesizes the outcome. "If this happens, then any further threats to this world will have no opposition."

Ishtar scratches her head, seeing the complex plan the enemy devised. "No heroes, no hope, so that's their goal. Whoever plan this must've been plotting the whole time." The Goddess interjects.

"Yeah, they must be just coming out now," Ereshkigal commented.

Ritsuka sighs, leaning back on his chair. "Lancer, what's your take on this? Do you have an idea of what they're planning?" he asked the newest addition to his team.

Lancer of Christianity was there with them, sitting on the window framing. "I have a supposition when I was in combat with our elder brother. The leader of our family mentions a name. Rider of Heaven."

"Rider of Heaven, Saber of Eden, Caster of Eden, Archer of Phoenicia, and Avenger of the Gallows." Agravain closes his eyes, retelling himself of those names. "Each of these Servants is either some kind of relationship with one another or just a pure coincidence."

"We at least know we need to get back in contact with Saber of Sheol," Ritsuka stated. "She said Lancer was here with the Centaurs and we have encountered Divine Spirits that is clearly out of our league if not prepared." He said to his Servants gathered in his office.

Da Vinci chuckles, causing them to look at her. "So like we always do, go and try to save the world." The Caster smiles. "Seeing this is the best plan we got, plus the unknown power scale the Servants of Eden possess we can only do so much." She shrugs.

"That's why we're being diligent lady Da Vinci." Agravain looks at her before packing the paperwork from his master's desk. "I have to go back soon, the only reason I'm here is to stand in for Koyanskaya while she deals with UN business." He walks to the teleporter.

Ritsuka nodded, understanding that they haven't reported to the UN for a week or so. "Say hi to Neville for me when you get back Agravain. And remember that-"

"Yes, you'll be doing our legends soon." Agravain smiles softly at the man he watched grow from that impudent child to the respectable person today. "I'm looking forward to it, I will be sure to inform the others upon my arrival to the Storm Border," he said, entering the circle and returned to the Border.

The Magus turns to the other Servants after one of his advisors left. "What's next on the docket?" he asked his friends/family.

"The gathering that Jane and the others did in retaliation of the Ministry's…poor actions." Da Vinci reminds her master. "Waver, Li Shuwen, and Flat went over to evaluate the group,"

Ritsuka nodded, "We'll find out about it when the others are done evaluating in a few days." He leans backward in his chair.

"Yes, master." They all responded.

A few days later Waver, Li Shuwen, and Flat stood before their master awaiting their report. "Jane is capable of leading this little gathering of students, Ginny, unfortunately, left the group after you weren't there on the first day."

"I see, any luck in finding Rita?" Ritsuka asked the Servants. "That woman is the fuel of the fire when it comes to the other Ginny. She's elusive than the one back home."

All of them shook their heads, "We haven't had any luck finding her. Even her assistant doesn't know where she possibly could've gone." Ishtar sighs, "Gawain and Bedivere are patrolling the school, Ashyia is within the shadows, and Muramasa and Parvati are keeping close tabs on the gossip among the children. In all-"

"It's a waiting game." Ereshkigal finished her sister.

Ritsuka thought for a moment before answering. "Master?" Flat ask seeing him think in his chair.

"Alright, we'll play her game for now," Ritsuka announced. "There's really nothing we can do at this point but wait. For now, just keep an eye out from now on." He explains.

"Right, master."

Li Shuwen steps forward, giving his part of the report. "Master, the group is well diverse. Each student brings out their specialties that help the other. However…"

"However?"

The Assassin closes his eyes, remembering the group well on their lack of physical combat. "The lack of physical training may hinder their performance. The girl Jane is teaching them how to use their wands while on the move; but the lack of self-defense without a wand is troubling." That was enough for Ritsuka to decide

Ritsuka stood up from his chair, stretching his arms. "Well, I think I know where I'm needed now." He looks at Waver, "Waver I need you to be the assistance with Hinako on my lessons about the other Roundtable members."

"Understood, I happen to learn a lot about them whenever I encounter them in the cafeteria back at Chaldea." Waver obliges to his master's request.

"What are going to do now, master?" Flat ask, leaning on the wall.

Ritsuka looks at his Assassin, a grin was spread across his face. "A little combat lesson won't hurt anyone, right?" he jokes, letting them know that he's going to do it.

The next day after another lesson Sir Palamedes in the Lore class, Ritsuka left immediately with Flat and Li Shuwen to where the student gathering meets. "So it's the Room of Requirements?"

"Yes, an ideal place for a secret meeting." The captain informed his master.

Flat places his arms at the back of his head. "You know the inquisitors that the Toad created, well they're looking for this group-"

"What are you doing here, standing around!" Jane exclaims, looking for any signs of the inquisitors around.

Ritsuka smiles, pointing at the wall, "Jane is this where-"

"SSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH!" Jane hushed her 'brother' for almost saying the location of their secret order in public. She walks over to them, gabbing his wrist leading the three to the wall. The room revealed the entrance for them, the red-haired girl looks at her 'brother' wanting to go over something with him.

Jane looks into her 'brother's' innocent-looking eyes. "Look I know you agree to help us, but for this to work-"

"The first rule is not to mention the fight club, I know it too well." Ritsuka jokes with her, not getting the joke from the looks of it.

Li Shuwen chuckles that his master says a saying four years early. "A bit too early master for that saying." He commented.

"Best movie if I do say so myself." Flat grins,

Jane shook off whatever they are talking about out of her mind. She opens the door, ignoring their laughter from some inner joke they were having. "Come on, before we got caught." She warns the master and Servants.

Everyone inside the Room of Requirements was practicing their wand movements. "That looks good!" Ron shouted, he looks behind him seeing Jane walking in. "Everyone, Jane's here!"

The members of the group gathered around in the center, awaiting Jane. They were all surprised to see not just Flat and Li Shuwen, but Ritsuka in his Chaldean Uniform walking behind her.

"Professor Fujimaru's here already!?"

"I thought he won't be here for another week!?"

Hermione walks up to Jane, Ron was with her following behind. "Did you bring him here or out of his own record, Jane?" the brunette asked her why the Magus is here.

Jane sighs moving to the side, letting Ritsuka take the floor. Ritsuka steps forward, a calm smile was on his face. "(Merlin, he hot when he smiles.)" Lavender sighs in his presence.

"(Too bad Ginny isn't here)" Parvati added, looking at the Magus's face.

Ritsuka looks around the room, seeing what his Servants describe on their report. "It seems you're all set up for defense with the wand." He commented on the setup of the room.

Ron nodded, noting his approval of their equipment. "Yeah, the room provided all of the stuff we use to practice with!" he informed his best mate's doppelganger excitedly.

"Are you going to teach us the magic you just did in the Forbidden Forest!?" Jamie walks up to him, wanting to learn all he can from him.

"What are you talking about Jamie?" A fellow Gryffindor asks the red-haired boy.

Jamie turns around to his fellow students, excited to tell them what he saw. "It was so cool! Ritsuka did some-"

"Martial arts." Ritsuka interrupted his little 'brother' for almost revealing that he used Magecraft. "I used a mix of martial arts, and swordsmanship to fend off some rouge trolls within the forest. Dumbledore asked of me to take care of them."

Jane, Hermione, Ron, Colin, and Jamie looked at the Magus with wide eyes. "W-What are you-"

"Isn't that what muggles use?" Padma ask the Chaldeans.

"Are we going to learn to use muggle defense art or something like that?" A Hufflepuff ask with curiosity

"Indeed, master used the skills he learns from me." Li Shuwen informed the children within the room. "Master has asked me to teach you all some form of hand-to-hand combat in any situation without a wand."

"B-But that's absurd, we can hold onto our wands tightly-"

Flat chuckles a bit causing everyone to look at him. "I'm sure you all know the disarming spell, what happens if you lose your wand and can't find it in time?" he asked the group. They all look at each other unsure to answer him.

"You're right, we don't know what to do." A Ravenclaw answered after giving it some thought.

Many realize this obstacle, some of them were even concern about it. Ritsuka notice their concerned expressions on their faces, he decided to do something about it. "You'll learn soon enough, but martial arts isn't just for everyone. As your Professor, I'm duty-bound to help you succeed." He walks over to a clear area as a mat appeared under him.

Ritsuka took off his jacket, revealing his tight black shirt showing his toned body. "O-Oh…" Many girls blushed at the sight, including Hermione who can't help staring at him.

"Gramps, if you would." Ritsuka motions his captain over to the other side of the mattress.

The captain nodded, walking dignifiedly to the other side. He turns around facing his master, "What's going on?" Neville asked walking with the others on the side, observing what the Magus is doing with his Servant.

"Hey Flat, what is Ritsuka doing?" Colin asked the Assassin Servant next to him.

"A demonstration of what you're going to learn, though this will be advance from the more basic forms." Flat informed the students.

Ritsuka looks over to his students, wanting this demo to be a learning lesson. "Assassin here is my captain of the many platoons back home; he is skilled in martial arts known as the Bajiquan Style." He informs the children. "A style that is explosive with short-range attacks, it's a dangerous technique that martial artists take years to master properly."

They all watched Ritsuka taking his position, his arms in his center and legs bend a little. "Gramps…"

"Hai," Li Shuwen steps forward, immediately in front of his master. Everyone gasps as they watch his hands being blocked by Ritsuka's.

Ritsuka raises his legs at a fast rate before it was blocked. "Don't tire on me, Gramps." He smirks.

"Heh, Always a jokester, master." The old captain was about to punch Ritsuka, he intercepts it by sliding it over his shoulder. Ritsuka uses his knees to hit his chest area to push him away.

Li slides on the matting before he saw Ritsuka sprint over to him. "Ha!" He propels his fist at him only to dodge. The Magus flow like the wind, going to his rear. The old man knew where he would be, so he intercepts his movement by turning slightly grabbing his arm, and flipping him over.

Ritsuka eyes widen, as his body about to hit the ground he uses his legs to catch himself. Li lets go knowing that holding onto him will injure his master. He paused seeing Ritsuka's fist in position to strike so he readies his own strike.

Both warriors' fists were right at each other's faces, halting their attacks. "Glad old age didn't wear you down, Gramps," Ritsuka smirks.

"And being an instructor for months hasn't affected your training." Li retorted back before they both lower their fist.

Ritsuka turns to the awed crowd of students, impressed by the demonstration of skills he showed. "T-T-That…was…AWESOME!" the children exclaim after seeing the display.

"This was a demonstration of how Mundane learn to defend themselves, without a use of a wand," Ritsuka explains, he snaps his fingers as multiple mattresses appeared on the floor.

Everyone looks at the area with the mattress. Ritsuka turns to the group of inspired students, "Professor, are we going to learn the way you do it?" Colin asked a bit concern that he won't live up to him.

"No, you'll be learning the basics and self-defense." Ritsuka claps his hands, gaining their attention. "Alright, everyone partner up we'll start with the simple movements. Both me and Assassin will go around and help with your forms."

Jane was about to go on a mat when Hermione stops her. "Hermione, what ar-"

"(Jane, isn't it strange that there's a lot of Ritsuka's Servants just appearing like that?)" Hermione whispers to her friend.

The red-haired girl looks at her friend, confused about what she said. "(What do you mean?)"

"(Think about it, how many did we meet? And we need to talk about those strange people with wings and that new man with the trench coat joined us coming back?)" Hermione looks at Ritsuka and his Servants, overseeing their training with the others. "(He's hiding something important that even the Order doesn't know)" she commented.

Jane looks at her older brother, rethinking the many times she sees new Servants of his. "(I think you're right, he already revealed that he's from another dimension and has come here to correct ours. But it's more on his Servants, something about them…)"

Hermione nodded, agreeing that the Servants are in question now. "(I'll try to find something about them, he did say they're familiars before.)" she commented, walking over to the mats trying out the self-defense herself.
