So… welcome back. Hopefully I get this out within two weeks… I mean, it took me forever to edit it before… Maybe I should start making a more detailed outline… Or at least any outline…

Also, EternalKing, I wanted to address your review here.

1: Fair enough, Fanon Zelretch is much more of a troll in Fanon than Canon. I adjusted the first interactions, so hopefully its more enjoyable.

2: A two year difference is pretty significant in my opinion. If it were only a one year difference, I would've been fine with it. But a majority of the class is fifteen when they first enroll. And yes, some do turn sixteen midway through the year, shortening the age gap, but going by that same logic, Shirou would turn eighteen, making it a two year gap again, and for some students, a three year gap.

If you don't like that, then that's fine. The type of school is really the only difference, Midoriya will still only get OFA about a year before enrolling in the school, All Might will still have roughly the same amount of time left, ect.

3: After graduation, they'd need to decide whether to go solo, create an agency, join an already existing agency, go underground, ect. I completely agree with that. But keep in mind that, again, they're going directly into a dangerous profession, a few of them only just becoming Legal Adults.

But if Yuuei was a College, that would give them a fourth year to cover anything and everything they still need to learn, they'd get a fourth year to decide what they want to do when they go pro, they'd all be well into adulthood when they graduate, and it also gives them all of highschool to decide if they really want to become a Pro-Hero.

Let's face it, while it is heavily advertised to become a Pro-Hero, you have to keep in mind that some Quirks just aren't suited for Hero Work. I'm talking about both minor/useless Quirks, like that old guy with the antennae in the first episode, as well as Quirks that would work better in other professions. Think of an Empath becoming a therapist, because I'd imagine that a lot of Pros would want some therapy. I can imagine an empath becoming a hero, but a therapist makes more sense to me.

4: I'll agree with you there. It'd take some damn good writing ability to convince Shirou to become a hero beyond 'I used to want to be a hero, now that Miyu's safe I guess I'll do that'. Am I up to the challenge? Fuck yeah.

In short, EternalKing, if you don't like this story, then don't read it. At the end of the day, I'm just writing fanfiction. Could I just use the other Shirou's instead, since they still admire and strive towards Heroism (With the exception of Heaven's Feel)? Yes I could. Could I reduce Shirou's age to make him go to Yuuei as a Highschool student instead of making Yuuei a college? Yes I could. But I didn't, because I didn't want to. The end.

Chapter 1: Adapting

Shirou threw himself into a roll, using the momentum to get back on his feet. He projected his bow, nocking a sword-arrow against the string, and released. It curved in the air, before striking his opponent. An explosion rang out, Shirou already drawing his bow yet again. That much wouldn't do in a Servant, after all. The horned Berserker charged, dual halberds pointed straight at him. Shirou released the second arrow, striking the mindless Servant directly but not slowing them in the slightest. He clicked his tongue, before jumping further back.

The Berserker slammed both halberds into the ground, where the redhead was just standing moments ago. A large boom erupted, kicking up dirt and obscuring the Servant of Madness. Shirou knocked a third sword-arrow mid-air, this one being a low-ranked Noble Phantasm, and eyed the cracked ground. He released. The arrow spun through the air, a high pitched whistle reaching their ears. Something shot out from the side of the dust cloud, and the arrow curved around to chase it. Shirou chose a Noble Phantasm with a pseudo-tracking function this time. He wanted to keep his projections to a minimum.

Shirou nocked a fourth arrow, pointing it at the white-haired Servant still running from his third projectile. It soared through the air, and both arrows struck at once. Letting the bow fade into nothing, Shirou projected a couple of D-Ranked Noble Phantasms, and landed. He shot forward towards the minotaur, reinforcing the blades until they broke. Berserker met his charge, and their weapons clashed.

Despite being almost half the Berserker's size, Shirou held his ground. If it weren't for the fact that it was a blackened Servant, Shirou wouldn't be able to stand a chance against Berserker. If things were normal, it would have a strength parameter of A++, completely crushing Shirou and instantly shattering his weapons. However, Asterios' strength was closer to B rank right now, allowing Shirou to match him with enough reinforcement. It wasn't easy, though, so Shirou released the blades and jumped further back, allowing the Broken Phantasms to explode in Berserker's face.

This entire exchange barely lasted ten seconds. They'd been fighting for over an hour.

Shirou, and by proxy Berserker, were standing at the center of a very large Hedge Maze. Shirou supposed it was fitting, considering he was currently fighting Asterios, the Minotaur slayed by Theseus. In legend, King Minos exchanged promises with Poseidon to sacrifice a Divine Bull, but trampled on that promise by sacrificing a normal Bull instead. Because of this, Poseidon cursed his wife Pasiphaë to feel sexual desire towards bulls. And after an… event… Asterios was born. Unsure what to do, Minos ordered the famous artisan Daedalus to create the Labyrinth, and imprisoned Asterios inside.

Out of custom, 14 children would be sent into the Labyrinth, seven boys and seven girls. King Minos demanded that children from their recently conquered state Athens would be sacrificed, rather than his own people. The Athenian hero Theseus personally stepped forward, intending to slay the Minotaur. Ariadne, the daughter of King Minos (And Asterios' half-sister) fell in love with Theseus at first sight. So Theseus, with the help of Ariadne, acquired an escape from the Labyrinth via a long thread, and killed Asterios.

However, even though the blame for Asterios' existence lied only with King Minos, he did not ever blame him. While Asterios was known as King Minos' bull, he was still part human. Therefore, he retained some semblance of humanity. What he felt for his father was not hatred, but not love either. It was a powerful emotion, enough so to overwrite any hatred he'd feel, but it wasn't love. His father paid tribute to him by giving him the title 'Lightning', a name Asterios considered himself unworthy of.

…What a wonderful Heroic Tale.

Shirou shook his head clear from those thoughts, and his amber eyes met red ones with black sclera. Technically speaking, Asterios was a child, he was somewhere between Shirou's age and Miyu's. But right now, he was nothing more than a Servant that needed to be defeated. And it wasn't like they had any sort of a consciousness, anyways.

Still, Berserker was a problem. While he wasn't as dangerous as someone like Heracles, he still had good parameters, a few of which being higher than the Demi-god's. And his A rank Monstrous Strength and B rank Madness Enhancement weren't helping.

Fortunately, Shirou didn't have to fight him alone.

A beam of blue light struck Berserker in the back, and he staggered forward. Standing far behind him was Miyu, pointing Sapphire towards the Berserker. When Shirou got a proper look at her, he felt… conflicted. On one hand, Miyu was getting a good handle over Sapphire's powers. On the other…

That outfit she was wearing was just wrong.

The base was a purple and black leotard that exposed her back and sides. Around her neck was a cape that split into two, looking like wings sprouting from her back. There were two detached sleeves the same color as the leotard, and white cuffs. Her legs were covered by purple and black stockings, and she wore white boots. Around her waist was a sort of black open skirt.

'Zelretch, I know that this is somehow your fault. Rest assured, I will find you and hunt you down. I know I'll probably die in the process, but I will die on the right side of history.'

After Shirou swore revenge on the Man of the Jewels, and Sapphire felt an odd chill run down her… handle… he refocused on the threat just ahead of him. He had high Strength and Endurance, so dealing with him would be a pain. And unfortunately, Shirou just couldn't push his powers as far as he could during the Grail War. During the War, he barely needed to worry about overheating since it was always cold there, nor did he need to worry about pushing his circuits too hard, but that wasn't the case here. Fortunately, neither overheating nor overworking his circuits was what got him to stop, he would've kept going otherwise. Rather, a new, more serious problem emerged: If he continuously pushed his powers, some of EMIYA's memories would start to forcibly invade his mind, giving him agonizing pain, and his tanned skin would begin to burn. Cracks would form in his vision, he couldn't breathe, he could barely even think. He couldn't move a finger, let alone hold a weapon.

This likely wasn't a side effect of Zelretch implanting EMIYA's card inside his body, he never had to worry about that during his war. It was definitely a side effect of him using EMIYA's power without his card during the fight against Angelica, and having EMIYA invade his body. The side effects were only temporary, since EMIYA's influence over him would slowly recede, but that would still take several months, if not longer. With his counterpart that received Archer's Arm, it took years for his arm to adapt.

If it were just the burning pain he had from his skin, he might've pushed through and continued to fight. It was extremely agonizing, like thousands of fire ants were biting his arm and face. And the knowledge and experience going through his brain wasn't a painless process, either. His body would just give in to the pain, even if he didn't want to. He was tempted to end this with a powerful weapon like Gae Bolg, and just end this in one swift attack. But just projecting it would make the pain that much worse, and Shirou would pass out before he could invoke the spear's true name. Fortunately, he had a solution.

This Berserker wasn't the first Servant they went after. In fact, it was the fifth. They had fought in order; Boudica, Kiyohime, Medusa, and Paracelsus. Including EMIYA's card, they had five and defeating Asterios would give them their sixth. Paracelsus' sword wouldn't be very useful right now, and he couldn't imagine Kiyohime's fan helping, either. But he had an idea for the other two, and Miyu's help would come in handy.

"Install! Rider!" He shouted, finding himself garbed in the cloth of the Rider Servant. It was a mostly black and purple long sleeved shirt, pants of the same color, black shoes that had purple guards to protect his ankles, and a purple scarf wrapped around his shoulders and neck. His hair had been extended drastically by the transformation, now reaching his knees. Covering his eyes was a metal plate with thin slits to see through. In his hands were her signature weapons, iron nails attached to chains. He didn't need her Noble Phantasm right now, but her Mystic Eyes would come in handy.

Shirou tore off the metal plate, looking Asterios in the eye and holding him in place. Shirou could see the tips of his fingers start turning to stone. He could probably accomplish the same result with a few Black Keys, but he wanted to finish this without Projecting too much more. He also had his own Magecraft, though Reinforcement and Alteration wasn't that useful without a target. Using Magical Energy to Install was fine, since he could do that without any of EMIYA's power. He had his own circuits, and they could produce a maximum output of about 700 units. Not quite as high as Tohsaka or Sakura, but still pretty high.

After that, Shirou Projected the sword and shield wielded by Boudica. If Shirou were to use her Chariot Without Promised Defense, it would just boost his defense. And he could only use her chariot if he Installed her. What he wanted was her sword. The Sword of Boudica, also known as the Sword Without Promised Victory. A one-handed sword with a blue and gold hilt and an ornamental sapphire, with some words inscribed into the flat of the blade. It was very similar to Excalibur, but not the same, as it was only an 'Imperfect Sword of Wishes'.

Shirou wanted this blade because of its ability to fire off repeated blasts of mana at a low cost. It was similar to Kanshou and Bakuya in that regard, since EMIYA could trace those blades quickly and at a low cost. The blasts weren't enough to kill a Servant in one hit, but since they could be fired off repeatedly without invoking the sword's True Name, it could do some significant damage. And by unleashing the sword's name, it fired off a barrage of these projectiles. But that raised a question.

What would happen if he made the Sword of Boudica a Broken Phantasm? Well, Shirou was about to find out. Shirou pumped his Od into the blade until it started glowing, blue light enveloping the blade. "Now, Miyu!" He shouted, not turning away from the Berserker. Miyu nodded, circling behind Asterios while Shirou's Mystic eyes slowly turned him to stone. When Miyu stood opposite of the Rider-installed Shirou, she pointed the wand forward.

"Quadruple shot, full charge!" She shouted, four magic circles appearing in front of her. Each one had a large opening in the center, which began to fill with blue light. Shirou took the chance to dash forward, reinforcing his arms and legs to the maximum. He moved faster than the human eye could see, looking as if he teleported. The ground cracked beneath him, and he appeared just in front of the Minotaur. He stabbed the Sword of Boudica into Berserker's gut, then jumped to the side. He didn't want to get caught up in Miyu's attack, too. "Fire!" Miyu finished, the four orbs of light fusing together into a single wide beam. The Sword of Unpromised Victory exploded the moment Miyu's attack landed, and a massive explosion of magical energy erupted. Shirou appeared next to Miyu, raising Boudica's Shield in defense. Miyu probably had a better guard with Sapphire's A-rank barriers, but brotherly instincts took over. The blast was relatively contained, destroying most of the immediate area while the force of the explosion hit the siblings. Shirou's reinforced body and Miyu's barriers held out, though.

Shirou lowered his shield, peeking over the edge. It was a pretty significant explosion, but even if his parameters were lowered, Asterios was still a force to be reckoned with. Shirou was prepared to Install the sole Caster Card he had, even that would be better than having nothing. Fortunately, his concerns were unfounded, since only a card remained when the smoke cleared.

Shirou stepped forward and closed his eyes. "Trace Off." He spoke calmly, the Shield vanishing and leaving only Od in its place. He sighed, before placing a hand on his chest. "Uninstall." He spoke again, his dark clothing turning back into the red and black armor worn by EMIYA. In his hand was the Medusa card, and he put it away.

Miyu walked up to the Berserker card and picked it up, closing her eyes. Before they could leave, they had to seal the card as well. Sapphire explained that to do this, Miyu needed to imagine the card being contained in some way, and fill it with Mana. Miyu did exactly that, and the card glowed briefly before she put it in the card holder on her thigh.

Shirou let his shoulders relax, and made his armor vanish wordlessly. He was now dressed in a plain white long-sleeved shirt, blue jeans, and an open green coat. The white shirt and pants were already a part of his wardrobe, but he decided to add a bit to it. It certainly helped that he looked good in green. He debated on whether or not to get gloves, either to conceal the calluses on his hands or to strengthen his punches so he could fight 'Quirkless', but decided against it. Hiding his hands was pointless since his 'Quirk' would explain them, and he was better with any blade than hand to hand, so the gloves were kind of pointless in that regard. Especially since he could turn a ruler into a blade sharp enough to cut through steel.

Shirou sat down, leaning against one of the shrubs while holding his head in mild pain. Heat and headaches did not go well together. He was half-tempted to produce some kind of ice-weapon to cool him down, but that would make for an even more agonizing headache. So he would have to cool off the normal way. He reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a water bottle, removing the cap to drink some of the ice cold water, then pouring some of it over his head. He screwed the cap back on, put the bottle back in his pocket, and let his arms fall to his sides.

Miyu walked up to him, grabbing one of his arms to get him off the ground. "Onii-chan, please get up. The Mirror World's about to collapse, we need to go." She said, lifting him off the ground. Had she been without Sapphire's power, it would've been ineffective, being the smaller of the two. However, Sapphire gave her enhanced strength (among other things), so Shirou was forced to his feet. He understood his sister's concerns, the world was literally collapsing around them, but he wanted just a quick moment to rest after a straight hour of battle with a high-end Berserker. Was that too much to ask for?

Shirou sighed, trying to get Miyu to let go of his arm. "Alright, I get it Miyu. Now let me go." He sighed, standing up fully. Miyu let him go, and he turned to look at the Magical Wand in Miyu's hands. "Sapphire, if you would?" He gestured to the blue Mystic Code, who in turn nodded. A small blue magic circle appeared between the two, before expanding to reach the feet of both siblings. All three vanished, leaving behind this reflection of the real world.

-lll-

The hedge maze of Musutafu, Japan. It was a public area, accessible by anyone, but not often visited. It was difficult to navigate through, so most people just went over the hedges if they wanted to get to the center. While technically illegal, the most you would get was a smack on the wrist, and even that only happened when you got caught, so most people ignored the law.

At the center of the maze was a semi-large clearing, where the sun shined down without any obstruction. And in that clearing, a small blue magic circle appeared, spinning clockwise and expanding. When it reached its full size, two people appeared in the center of the maze.

Shirou immediately fell back, his arms outstretched to his sides. His breathing was slightly labored, and his eyes were slightly bloodshot, but other than that the only thing he felt was exhaustion. One might say that he was over exaggerating, that it was only one Berserker and he'd fought much harder during the Grail War.

'You try fighting someone with the strength and endurance of several dozen men while someone else's memories invade your mind and give you a headache. Let me tell you, it isn't very fun.' Would be the reply they'd receive. This version of Shirou was more laid back than his counterparts, but he was also more sassy.

He unscrewed the cap on the bottle again, took another long swig, and set the now empty bottle beside him. Miyu kneeled down behind him, sitting on her legs in seiza.

It looks like she released her transformation, since she was wearing her casual clothes now. Specifically, she wore a white and blue sundress, and a thin, short pink sweater that was tied up at the front. Obviously, Shirou picked it out for her.

She picked up his head and scooted forward, then put it back down on her lap. What was this called… A lap pillow? He could see why some people look forward to this so much, it was nice. "Thanks, Miyu." He said, his eyes half-lidded. She didn't reply, choosing instead to play with his hair, curling it around her finger. "What are you doing?" He asked, looking up at her but not stopping her.

Miyu just smiled, continuing to stroke his hair gently. Shirou sighed, but smiled back. A cool breeze blew through the maze they rested in, and he closed his eyes. After a moment, the younger girl answered his question. "This is revenge. You're always playing with my hair, so it's my turn to play with yours." She said, still messing with his hair.

"Well, as your older brother, I get express permission to play with your hair. It's basically an unwritten rule." Shirou retorted, his eyes still shut. "And if I didn't take care of your hair, it wouldn't be as silky smooth as it is now, Miyu. You should be thanking me!" He smirked, earning a flick to the forehead. He chuckled at his sister's embarrassment, causing Miyu to giggle too.

It had been roughly one month since the two arrived in this world, and they got to work quick. Only two weeks in, and they reclaimed the first two cards, both enrolled in school, and Shirou got a part-time job. They got their life on track, Sapphire began to teach Miyu how to use her, it was a fairly average life, excluding the people with seven arms or spitting acid.

They eventually came across familiar faces, meaning they found people who existed in either their original world, or the world EMIYA belonged to. The first they found out about was Kiritsugu, being both a married man and a loving father. There was his wife, Irisviel Emiya Einzbern, and their two daughters, Illyasviel Emiya Einzbern (Aka Illya), and Chloe Emiya Einzbern (who also went by Kuro). The latter two happened to be Miyu's classmates, and the former was a teacher. Shirou didn't know where she was teaching, only that she was a teacher.

But Kiritsugu was a Pro-Hero, an old one because he was going to have to retire soon. Retirement wasn't a very common occurrence in the Hero profession, Professional or otherwise, but Kiritsugu nearly retired early because of his body. It began to weaken from old age, he apparently needed a walking cane to get around nowadays, but his Quirk still worked. His Quirk, 'Accel', was the same as his Time Manipulation Magecraft, but in his prime he could push it all the way to something called 'Hex Accel'. Quirks apparently worked like muscles, so the Quirks themselves could be trained and get stronger. His hero name was 'Sever', likely a reference to his dual origin of Binding and Severing, and his hero outfit was similar to his Heroic Spirit Self's. He wasn't quite retired yet, more of a veteran. Fitting, considering the Kiritsugu that raised Shirou's counterparts was technically a war veteran.

Next, Shirou learned that EMIYA's former Student Council President, Ryuudou Issei, was in this world too. His Quirk was nothing special, all it did was give him the patience of Buddha, but that was why he made for an even better Student Council President here. And a Shinto Priest in the making, too.

There were a few more familiar faces, such as Fujimura Taiga (Miyu's English teacher), Sella and Leysritt (The Einzbern's housemaids), Mitsuzuri Ayako (The head of the Archery Club at Shirou's school), Kotomine Kirei (Who worked at a ramen shop exclusively), and a few others.

There were also less familiar faces. Hakuno Kishinami was the Student Council's Secretary at Shirou's school, Hotaruzuka 'Neko' Otoko and her father, who worked at this world's version of the Copenhagen, and Caren Hortensia, the nurse of Miyu's school.

Overall, this new life was… peaceful. Relaxing. Shirou felt like he could forget everything, and just enjoy the present. It was kind of like a sanctuary where he could get away from all that happened in the past.

So you've replaced her already, then? I thought she meant more to you, Shirou Emiya.

Shirou purged those unwelcome thoughts from his head. He didn't know why those kinds of thoughts kept invading his mind, but suspected it had something to do with EMIYA. The voice in his head sounded more like the Counter Guardian's older voice than his own youthful one, and it only grew more frequent when he used his powers. But that raised another question: Why would EMIYA do this in the first place? Sure, EMIYA was antagonistic and cynical, but not… this.

"So Sapphire, how's Miyu's training been going?" Shirou asked suddenly, both to break the silence and to distract himself from EMIYA(?)'s comments. The Wand, now absent of her blue handle and floating in the air, looked back and forth between the siblings and floated next to his ear. She shifted her wing to block her face from the side, likely to keep Miyu from overhearing. It wouldn't work though, Shirou knew that much. He was still laying on her lap, after all.

"Miyu-sama has been making excellent progress, mastering my capabilities far quicker than my previous owner, Luviagelita Edelfelt. However, she lacks imagination and is quite narrow-minded. I am capable of giving my user flight, but she believes that to be impossible. Unfortunately, most of my powers require imagination to properly utilize, so if she does not believe she can fly, she will be unable to fly." She said in a hushed tone, causing Shirou to deadpan. "She is quite impressive when it comes to visualization, however. Unnaturally so. If I can describe it to her well enough, she can do it."

"Well, she did read a lot of books growing up, I guess she just got good at picturing them in her head." Shirou replied, recalling the literal library in their previous home. Then he felt a pang of guilt, realizing that he could've given her something else to do but read for over four years. Maybe he could've bought a TV or something, let her watch that while he was at school or working. All she had were books. "I'm guessing you can't think of a good way to describe flight to her?" He asked again, the wand shaking her head.

"Onii-chan, you're still laying on my lap… I can hear everything you two are saying." Miyu pouted, upset with Sapphire for telling her brother of her inability to fly.

"Oh, I already knew that. I was just waiting until Sapphire realized it, too." He replied without missing a beat. After a moment, he raised a hand up to Miyu's face, before extending his finger and touching her nose lightly. "Boop."

Her reaction was immediate, her face turned red and her head jolted back. She raised her hands in defense of her small nose, and Shirou laughed. "You are adorable Miyu, you know that?" He joked, causing Miyu to smack his forehead. "Ow, stop it!" He shouted, raising his arms up in defense.

Yup, just another sweet moment between an older brother and his little sister.

-lll-

Shirou sat bored at his desk, going over the cards they collected in his head. 'Alright, so we have two Riders, Boudica and Medusa, two Berserkers, Kiyohime and Asterios, a Caster, Paracelsus, and EMIYA's card, which I can't get rid of.' He listed off, still ignoring the teacher go on and on about Geometry. 'For Kiyohime and Medusa, it was just Sapphire and I, since Miyu was either busy at school or 'with friends'. For the other three, Miyu was with us when we fought and usually took a long-ranged approach with Sapphire's beam attacks.'

"Sakatsuki-san, can you answer the question on the board?"

'She doesn't need to worry about Magical Energy since Sapphire is connected directly to the Mana Plane, and neither do I since she's passively supplying mana to me at all times... Now that I think about it, I'm kind of like her Servant.'

"Sakatsuki-san?"

'Heh, that's an odd thought. I can't imagine a Master calling their Servant 'Onii-chan'. Then again, Jack the Ripper called a lot of people 'Mommy', and my other selves wanted Saber to call them by our name, so who knows? Maybe there's a Master out there who'd prefer calling their Servant-'

"Sakatsuki-san!" His teacher shouted a third time, causing Shirou to halt his train of thought and look up at her. A few of his classmates started laughing to themselves at his expense. "Please answer the question on the board." She said patiently, causing Shirou to blink a couple of times then turn to the board. After a few seconds of thinking, he turned back to her.

"X is 18.7, Y is 22.5, and the angle of repose would be 62 degrees." He answered with a straight face, the students replacing their hushed laughter for confusion. The teacher curtly nodded, erased the board, and resumed class. A few were still staring at him in shock, but eventually everyone was paying attention to the teacher. Everyone but Shirou, who had spaced out again.

Normally, Shirou wouldn't be the kind of person to stop paying attention in class, but his grades were high enough, and there was a lot more on his mind right now. No longer about Masters and what they called their Servants, but rather what the teacher called him, 'Sakatsuki-san'.

As mentioned before, Shirou found out pretty early on that Emiya Kiritsugu existed in this world. And obviously, he didn't adopt Shirou or Miyu. So if two new Emiyas appeared out of nowhere, that would raise suspicion. So they chose to adopt Miyu's family name, Sakatsuki. It helped that they had similar enough 'Quirks' to claim that they come from the same family. They both used transformations (For Miyu it was that ungodly outfit, for Shirou it was EMIYA's armor), they could both use various powers during that transformed state (Shirou could use those powers without transforming, not that anyone knew. He rarely use his 'Quirk' unless it's for fighting the cards or training in private), and the process of their transformations was semi-similar.

But the most damning piece of evidence was that they were (apparently) biological siblings. Shirou assumed that either his or Miyu's blood changed to match the other's, fitting the whole 'true sibling' wish Miyu made all that time ago.

But because of those reasons, it was really easy to say that they were real siblings (Because they were), and from there it only took a lot of half-truths and question-dodging, as well as some Memory Altering, and the two were registered as Sakatsuki. There were a few near-slip-ups, but other than that they adapted to the change.

Classes continued on, the teachers occasionally calling on Shirou and interrupting his thoughts, and about an hour before the day ended, someone on the student council called him into the Student Council Room. Shirou took that as his excuse to leave class early, and he soon found himself in the Student Council's office fixing yet another broken heater. His patient student council president was at the table in the center of the room, talking with his vice and secretary. Issei was as stiff as ever, their vice Tsunokuma was still permanently sleepy, and the secretary Hakuno was as upbeat as ever. The funny thing is that Hakuno considered Issei to be her 'natural enemy', but they got along just fine.

Vice President Tsunokuma Arno had short, messy brown hair and eyes of the same color. He usually wore the same black jacket and pants all the guys did, and he wore a black t-shirt with a smiley face under it. Technically he was supposed to wear a dress shirt under it, but no one could make him do so consistently, so they gave up on trying and let him do what he wanted. He was usually wearing this tired expression, but was otherwise cool and collected. The reason he was always so tired was because of his Quirk, called 'Nocturnal'. It was exactly as it sounded, he worked better at night than at day. Issei wasn't sure if he should've made Tsunokuma the vice at first, but quickly got over it when shown how studious he was at night, so he bent a few rules and let Tsunokuma handle his work at home. He was a second year, making him Shirou's underclassman.

As a side note, Shirou and Issei were wearing the same uniform as Tsunokuma, though they both wore a dress shirt like they were supposed to, and Shirou didn't button the top buttons.

Secretary Kishinami Hakuno had hair and eyes the same color as Tsunokuma's, though her hair was longer and more wavy, and her eyes were larger and more droopy. Shirou asked if they were related, and they shrugged. She wore the female version of the school's uniform, being a navy blue sailor school uniform with a red tie. She wore black thigh-high socks and the usual brown shoes. Her Quirk had something to do with coding and technology, and appropriately named her Quirk 'Program'. She was in her first year. She's an otaku, a bit of a chunni, and she's pretty open about it. More often than not, she's standing in some weird pose with a weird shout. There were even a few times she convinced (read: tricked) Shirou to watch anime with her. After a while, he started criticizing anime for unrealism. Not things like giant robots or magic weapons, those he understood as parts of the anime (Especially since he had a literal armory of Magic Weapons). What he criticized was unrealistic fighting styles, primarily ones using weapons. Examples included 'Swinging an axe like that would break your wrist', 'those daggers don't have enough reach to do that', and 'a normal longsword can't cut through armor like that, and it would break if you forced it'. At some point, Hakuno started taking notes on his criticisms.

The very first question she asked when they met was 'can you cosplay for me?'. It was one heck of a way to leave a first impression, and after enough convincing, he agreed. Even a month later, she still had him cosplaying. First it was Akabane Karma from Assassination Classroom (which was debatable with its techniques, as the son of an assassin he would know), after that it was Yukihira Soma from food wars (Shirou actually cooked some food while cosplaying at an anime convention she dragged him to, it was kind of fun), and then Suoh Mikoto from K Project (She had used so much gel to keep his hair in that style that her hand got stuck to his hair. They had to wash it off in the shower to get it off). Hakuno was… well, she was an interesting person.

And as expected, as soon as he finished fixing the broken Heater, all of a sudden, "Shirou-senpai, can you cosplay as an exorcist for me?" She asked, arms outstretched over the table. Tsunokuma was still half-awake, so he didn't react much at all. Shirou could swear he saw an anime style snot bubble coming out of his nose. Shirou himself was used to her antics, so he shrugged. But Issei…

"Secretary Kishinami Hakuno!" He shouted, standing up while slamming his hands on the desk. Again, the Vice President completely ignored it. "Will you quit asking Sakatsuki-kun to cosplay at school?! Especially not during school hours!"

"Hmph! Then I'll just take him home with me so he can try it on there! And you can't stop me!" She shouted back, grabbing her bag before grabbing Shirou by the collar and dragging him from the room. Already expecting this, Shirou grabbed his bag just before Hakuno grabbed him. Issei was shouting something about it still being school hours from behind them, but they were already long gone. Not like Hakuno would've cared anyways. After dragging him outside the school gate, she suddenly paused. And her expression immediately filled with worry. "Er… Sorry senpai. I basically just grabbed you and ran, before you could even answer my question." She scratched the back of her head, releasing Shirou's collar and averted her gaze. He took a moment to fix it, then sighed.

"It's fine, the school won't really care about me skipping an hour or two. And I was going to accept anyway, so let's go." He replied, walking towards the direction of his Kouhai's house. She'd invited him to her house on more than one occasion, usually to try something on. After a moment, she giggled and chased after him. It was just another average day in a supernatural world.

Alright, I'm back to edit the end of this chapter. It was mostly just the Author's note at the end I wanted to fix. So, for those of you who are unnaturally well versed in Fate, you might know of Fate/School Life. And in Fate/School Life, the Vice president of the student council was named Tsunokuma, and his design was based off of the Male Hakuno. And in that picture, he was asleep, with the weird nose-bubble to boot. So I just said he had a nocturnal Quirk, it's not gonna be that important, anyways. And going off that logic, the Student Council Secretary was unnamed, but called Mrs. ○○. Since she was nameless, I just called her Hakuno since the name was open. She's gonna be more of a recurring side character than a main heroine. Don't worry, you'll keep seeing her (And her cosplay fetishes) even after Shirou enrolls in Yuuei.

By the way, for you guests that speak Spanish or Arabic or whatever that keep complaining about Shirou going to Yuuei, and he should be a vigilante or whatever, just stop. This is my story, I'll write it how I want, and if you have a problem with that then leave.

Also, regarding the Broken Phantasm that is the Sword of Boudica. The thing I mentioned about it firing off small, low cost blasts? It's canon. The thing where it expels all the mana when Broken? I made that up.

If anyone has anything to say besides 'This story is interesting', 'This story is garbage', 'Shirou should be a Vigilante, not a Hero', or 'Looking forward to next chapter', because I know you're out there, leave a review.

Until then, this is the Namer, signing out!

Edit 1: I edited the chapter again. I turned Hakunon back to Hakuno due to various complaints. I also made a few more edits regarding the Pro Hero Kiritsugu.

Edit 2: Made some changes in the battle with Berserker. I wanted Miyu to have a bit more of a role there, and I decided against using the Swimsuit version NPs. I also fixed a few errors and made a lot of changes.
