Disclaimer: I don't own Fate either. Which is probably best for the rest
of the world.
Fate is a funny thing. It is stubborn, it enjoys irony, it loves to prove people wrong; especially the ones who use absolutes like "never" and "always." It can be kind and it can be cruel, depending on circumstances and on those beings it is dealing with.
It is also proud and hates to be messed with. Most of all, it hates being pushed around, and being manipulated by arrogant undead mikos who seem to think they could do Fate's job better than it could are, in it's opinion, the worst. In fact, the particular miko in question had been brought back from the dead while Fate's attention was directed elsewhere, but it decided to let it slide, because her "rebirth" appealed to it's sense of the absurd.
But now. . . now this "woman" had gone too far. She had gone and tried to screw up something Fate had no intention allowing her to interfere with. Fate and Time had had an argument over who had more power to control destinies, and this portal was Fate's way of telling Time, "In your face, Brother!" The fact that the two beings it manipulated along with this little demonstration did, indeed, belong together and that Fate had grown quite fond of the pair (or was at least, especially entertained by them), only made it's resolve firmer.
So, as the undead priestess waved a haughty, dismissive gesture at Fate's treasured portal, Fate merely gave her a raspberry, so to speak. The well did, in fact seal and fill with the remains of countless demons once again. The portal, however, jumped neatly away from her powerful spell, and replaced itself squarely into the nearby ancient tree ~ the Goshinboku.
"Talk about irony," Fate smirked to itself, before making off to attend to it's other concerns.
Fate also has a truly bizarre sense of humour.
