"Shiki-sama, please wake up, Shiki-sama..." A girl with short pink hair enters a room after knocking. "Excuse me..."
She walks towards a bed inside that room with light steps, carrying a tray with a cup on top. She places the tray on a cupboard nearby and turns towards the bed. "Shiki-sama, please wake up, you will be late for school."
But no response came from the curled sheets. Worry became clear on her face and she slowly approached the bed, extending her hand to touch the sheets. "Shiki-sama?"
She removes the sheets, and her worries were all confirmed, the bed was empty. Quickly she ran out of the room and downstairs. "Akiha-sama! Akiha-sama!" Her voice reaches the sitting room, and a black haired girl comes out into the lobby with a confused expression. "Hisui? What is it? Is something wrong with Nee-san?"
"Akiha-sama, Shiki-sama is not in his bed! He left discreetly tonight!"
Terror took over the mansion that morning, Shiki was no where to be found. The only trace of him left was a note he left under his pillow, saying: "I will only be back when I bring her with me. Do not attempt to follow me, do so and I will never come back."

The wind blew away some leaves on the side of a road in the middle of the night, a sports car clearly driving past the speed limit is soaring on the empty road, the trip is supposed to take around eight hours from Misaki to Fuyuki, but in this speed, only six hours will be required. A red headed woman sitting in the driver seat and a young black haired man wearing glasses is in the passenger seat. Shiki obviously is terrified from such speed but Aoko seems to enjoy driving this fast.
"Say Sensei, could you perhaps slow down?"
"WHAT?! I CAN'T HEAR YOU! THE ENGINE IS SO LOUD!"
"I SAID! CAN YOU SLOW DOWN A BIT!"
"NO! WE WILL BE LATE IF WE DO THAT!"
"LATE TO WHAT EXACTLY?!"
"THE HOLY GRAIL WAR WILL BEGIN IN TWO DAYS! YOU ONLY HAVE ONE DAY TO REACH FUYUKI AND ACTIVATE YOUR CIRCUITS! IT'S UP TO LUCK WHETHER YOU WILL BE SELECTED AS A MASTER OR NOT BUT REGARDLESS OF THAT YOU CAN STILL STEAL A SERVANT!"
"I'M SORRY I DON'T THINK I UNDERSTAND!"
"DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT NOW! YOU WILL KNOW EVERYTHING ONCE WE REACH THERE!"
**VROOM**

In another side...
"Oni-chan, I want more." A short white haired girl says upon placing a packet that seemed to have contained some fries on a table.
"You can't, it's not good for you." Said an orange haired teenager sitting on the other side of the table while gripping a burger.
"What?! But I only ate one packet!" Replies the young girl displeased with his answer.
"And that's all what you're getting for today, too much fast food is bad for health. Besides you ate two burgers and a packet of fries, isn't that too much for your small stomach, Illya?"
Illyasviel von Einsbern was her previous name, now she simply goes by Emiya Illya, sister of Emiya Shirou.
Illya frowns at the reply. And gives up after giving an annoyed sigh. "But that's all you cook, fast food is your speciality."
"Well I'm not Sakura, she knows what she's doing."
Illya changes serious at that moment. "Shirou, you shouldn't get too close to that girl."
"I know. She is a Tohasaka by blood. Right? Although she's weaker than the other Tohsaka, she can still sense me if I don't suppress my circuits." Shirou said.
Illya gave a satisfied nod, looks like all her speeches about the history of magecraft and the holy grail paid off.
"By the way, Illya, Kiritsugu saved you from the Einzberns, how did he manage to steal into their bounded field?"
Illya smiled proudly and puffed out her chest. "It was a sabotage from the inside! I did the work to let him in! He took care of the rest of the attack homunculi forces with ease, after all his magecraft wasn't affected by the curse of the grail. Although it was him who gave the order for saber to destroy it, saber ended up being the one punished for doing it."
Shirou nodded in understanding.
Although Kiritsugu destroyed the grail, and caused the deaths of countless innocents, including Shirou's family, it was saber that was punished, an interesting concept for Shirou to reflect upon.
Two days left until the next holy grail war, stupid Kiritsugu thought he saved Illya by taking her from the Einzberns, but he was too late, now she's already the vessel, but even she doesn't realize it. She has the knowledge of the holy grail but she doesn't realize her role as the grail. Kiritsugu's stupidity didn't end there, he also thought that by blowing up the leylines in fuyuki city he will delay the next holy grail but all he did was speed up the cooldown.
Shirou wondered if he would miss illya after she becomes the grail.
Shirou also wondered if be would become a master in the holy grail war.
After all, why wouldn't he give a few people some proper deaths?

Yup, this is the first chapter in this fanfiction.
Basically Shirou is too different than regular Shirou and he alone will not be able (or try) to save this timeline. Zelretch took action due to him pitying Arcueid and not because he cares about the timeline. So yeah! Have fun! See you in after 12 hours!
