When Rin Tohsaka heard the loud crash echoing u upstairs she knew immediately something was wrong. The clocks she found were an hour slow and the second floor bedroom had been completely destroyed. Furniture everywhere was reduced to splinter or piled haphazardly. lounging amongst the broken furniture was a man who seemed to be in his mid-twenties with tan skin and white hair. He was wearing an outfit consisting of a black breastplate, with black trousers and a red coat that had metal discs on the sleeves. The man gave her a smirk that she immediately didn't like. "who are you?" "Is that the first thing you say after summoning me? Well, well, well, you must be an exceptional master or I got the shortest straw. Am I to assume you are my master? You weren't present during my summoning." Rin bristled. "Do you really expect me to be here the moment you appear? you're not a baby. You really are my servant, is that correct?" "And where is the proof that you are really my master and not some imposter?" She raised her hand . "All the proof you need is right here." on her hand was a series of circular marks. He sighed and groaned. "That is not what I meant. I meant are you really worthy of my loyalty?" she gasped as he continued "I'm completely dissatisfied. But I'll work for you on one condition: in the war to come, I will not obey your commands. I will decide how I fight." "so you will grudgingly accept me but refused to listen to my tactical opinions!? how can that be?" "until this war is over I recommend you hide in a cellar. That should keep a novice like you alive." Rin had had enough. "you bastard!" she raised her hand, and the servant jumped in shock. "you're not going to-" "SHUT UP! You're my servant, so I, by command seal, order you into obedience!" a red pulse shot from her hand, stunning the servant. "are you really that stupid!" Rin looked away, embarrassed at what she had done. "Let's talk downstairs"
"You do know that normally not even one hundred command seals can force a servant into complete obedience, right" "I know." Rin groaned. How could she have done something so stupid? "So I wasted a command seal?" "Normally, yes, but it seems I had the wrong impression about you. I feel a strong compulsion to do as you say. You are an excellent mage." rin smiled slightly. "what is your name?" "I do not know. It seems your incomplete summoning has tampered with my memory." Archer stated. another half truth. "Your Noble Phantasm?" "The same" Archer responded. Rin groaned again. "oh well. archer?" she asked sweetly. "yes Rin" she threw a broom at him. "clean that room up." archers eyes widened "excuse me? do you know what i-" You are a familiar, and you made that mess so clean it up. I'm getting some sleep."
The next day, Shirou Emiya was training what pitiful Magecraft he knew, reinforcement, a skill that roughly made an object seven times stronger. "please let this work." He murmured under his breath. The pipe glew with a greenish light, before flickering red, and shattering. Shirou sighed. "oh well, I'll try again tomorrow." he stood up, walking out of the shed and after washing himself up, headed down to breakfast. a girl in the kitchen smiled. she had long, oddly purple hair and eyes, pale skin, and a delicate face that had a slight, childish quality to it. Sakura Matou, a girl who had assigned herself as housekeeper to him for years. she was wearing a simple light pink apron, and slightly baggy clothes that concealed her well developed frame. "morning senpai." she greeted with a soft voice. "Good morning. and please, call me Shirou." there was no harshness in his voice, just a polite request. "ok sen-Shirou." Sakura said with a cute blush. as they eat the traditional bteakfast, shirou noticed something that is instantly soured his mood. A bruise was on Sakura's left hand. "Shinji" he thought with a surprising amount of venom. Shinji was Sakura's older brother, and a petty egotist if he was honest. He knew better then to ask Sakura though. She would make an excuse of some kind. It worried him a great deal. He sighed, causing her head to be raised. he smiled, trying to play it easy to soothe her. "Just thinking about exams." she smiled.
school was normal today for Shirou, but something weird did happen. as soon as he crossef the front gate, he felt incredibly sick, his hand hurt and a small amount of blood dripped from it. figuring he just cut it in the shed, he wrapped it up using some gauze and ointment from the nurses office. as he was about to leave, a girl wearing Archery gear politely asked him to clean the storage for there equipment, as she was going on a date. he agreed, mostly out of kindness, but partly because he was a forner member if the club. it was this act of kindness that killed him the first time
if rin didn't have magecraft enhanced eyesight, she wouldn't even he able to see the fight. archet and man with blue, formfitting clothes were in a fierce duel weilding a blood red lance vs Archer's pair of dual swords, one white and another black. the weirdest thing was Archer seemed to have a near unlimited set, as soon as one broke, another was instantly summoned. It was an incredibly close fight, no clear winner in sight. Untill a boy with red hair got caught watching. A human must not know. When Rin went to check on the boy, she immediately thought it was to late. Untill she heard his heart beating. Quickly, she reached for a red gem she kept around her neck, and recited an incantation. She left before Shirou woke up.
