And here we are with my second chapter to my other fanfic of this multiverse saga, it time skips from the Russia operation to a time where Illya is enjoying some down time with her family, but that won't mean trouble won't rear it's ugly mug, in small ways, so here we go and I hope you enjoy it.

Oh and as far as the fanfic The Omnitrix and the Umbral Star is concerned does anyone know a good platform to watch the Ben 10 series up to Ultimate Alien, sadly I can hardly remember the dialogue and scenes so I would appreciate it to get it going. In the meantime I have another title lined up to join the ranks.

Of Shinigami and Sword Saints, a bleach and fate crossover so look out for that.

Fate belongs to Nasu. On with the story!

Chapter 2: Tohsaka Sisters

Two years would pass since the operation in Russia, Maya had been scouting around for anything unusual and give regular reports to Kiritsugu, it was an eerily calm period.

The warning from Alexander was relayed to the Magus Association putting them on alert, so Clock Tower agents as well as church executioners patrol the world looking for signs of trouble, Kiritsugu himself would use this chance to spend more time with his family and give Illya a break from fighting, Shirou was still improving on his projections as he could trace knives and daggers so far, he also had become an incredible cook helping Sella, much to her annoyance at first but eventually accepted it, he even took up archery as a member of the archery team at school, Irisveil and Liz would continue helping to improve Illya's magecraft and fighting abilities as her father played overseer, the training now included how to use kaleidostick Ruby, of course it came with wearing the magical girl outfit again much to her embarrassment, as her mother gushed over how cute it was, one perk that came out of it was learning how to fly like an actual magical girl which was neat.

The Emiya family also learned about the class cards that were also obtained in Russia, apparently when one installs a class card they can take on the traits and abilities of heroic spirits, heroes of myth, legends and history, Ruby also explains that she is the perfect medium for. Installing these cards.

Now 19 years old Illya was able to take up mercenary missions on her own, she also wanted to take up hunting for artifacts of any kind whether mystic or extraterrestrial that caught the Clock Towers eye.

However she was just looking to spend more time with her family and the lack of action allowed for her to take up college to study for archeology and chemistry, it was evening and Illya was walking with Shirou on a shopping trip to help him buy groceries for dinner, it was peaceful, but there was something always lurking in the shadows, two girls were tailing them from a distance, they looked similar yet different from one another, a pair of sisters, one younger the other older, though the younger one was more developed then the older sister.

They were Rin and Sakura Tohsaka, the last line of the Tohsaka family, and they were out for revenge.

When they were kids, their father Tokiomi Tohsaka was meant to be a participant in the 4th holy grail war, he also struck a deal with the Makiri family to have the youngest daughter Sakura handed to them as only one Tohsaka heir can learn and inherit their magecraft, however Tokiomi was killed before any plans were set in motion, the sudden death made their mother become distraught and depressed till she committed suicide two months later.

They would both be taken in by a priest named Kirei Kotomine who was meant to be their fathers apprentice, Rin would continue to study the Tohsaka jewel craft till she fully mastered it, even going as far as to teach Sakura as well, they eventually learned from Kirei that the one who killed Tokiomi was the magus killer Kiritsugu Emiya, and that he is currently living with his family in Fuyuki.

Armed with this knowledge, and with a little coaxing from Kotomine Rin made it her mission to avenge their father by taking everything from him, Sakura though hesitant eventually followed along with new resolution.

The sisters would spend any time they could to boost their skills as magus in order to take on the Emiya family, especially when most of them were of the Einzburns, they especially were wary of Illyasveil who had gained a reputation similar to her father over the years along side being a top rate magus herself, it would be a tough fight but they had an ace up their sleeve.

As Illya and Shirou continue to walk night finally set, both of them had a feeling they were being followed till Ruby wiggled out of the formers pocket to tell them of to mana presences close by, including the set up of a boundary field.

They made their way to a nearby alley where they were finally intercepted by one of the Tohsaka sisters.

"Who are you, and what's your business with us?" Shirou asked.

"Oh nothing, just a little payback from one family to another, though from what I can understand you mister red head are neither an Emiya or Einzburn by blood."

Illya immediately stiffened upon hearing her old and new family name and her eyes narrowed.

"Now that I get a good look at you I believe you are of the Tohsaka family correct, I believed them to be all gone these days."

"One of the last in the Tohsaka line as you now know, I am Rin Tohsaka, and I have come to avenge my father!" Rin proclaimed.

Rin brought her hand up which was laced with gems and tossed them at the adoptive siblings bursting into a wall of fire.

Illya and Shirou ducked behind a dumpster to avoid the flames, the former responded by shaping some string into swords and bringing them down upon the Tohsaka girl who avoided each strike.

Shirou quickly projected a pair of daggers and reinforced both those and his limbs, and ran out to charge Rin, who already had another set of gems at the ready and threw them upwards to create a magic net that caught Shirou, he wouldn't be able to get out.

"Shirou!!" Illya cried out.

"Pay attention!!"

Illya immediately directed her attention to Rin who rushed her, limbs reinforced, Illya did the same and the two were locked in hand to hand combat, both fighters taking hard strikes at one another, Illya flipped back and drew in a bunch of strings which were attached to various objects sending them collapsing on top of Rin Tohsaka.

Throughout the ordeal Sakura Tohsaka was on top of a roof of a one story building overlooking the fight, she had green gems in hand, they glowed and Sakura threw them at the most vulnerable target, Shirou.

Multiple green beams shot from the gems and would have struck if Ruby didn't interfere with the coming blast by absorbing it.

"Shirou hold on."

Ruby flew her way over to Illya and pulled out one of the class cards in her back pocket, an archer class card, she then made her way to Shirou and gave it to him telling him to pour his mana into and shout install.

"Install!!"

Suddenly his magic circuits flooded with mana and he began to see a vision of a barren world filled with swords and other blades sticking on the ground, massive gears spinning in a smoke filled sky.

The area around Shirou erupted breaking the magic netting, Illya, Rin and Sakura all stopped and stared as the smoke cleared to reveal him now wearing black body armor made of unknown material, a red shroud adorned parts of his body and was even worn on his forehead like a headband, in his hand was a black bow.

As he stood there his eyes opened and he began to speak.

"Trace…on!"

A sword materialized in his hand, as he drew it on the bow like an arrow, and fired it right at Sakura's direction.

"Sakura!!!" Rin cried.

Sakura braced for the blast which sent her flying of the roof, but before she landed on the ground Shirou caught her and gently laid her on the ground.

Rin was surprised at the action but shook her head as she began to think of counter measures for the new development.

"Give up, we have the advantage, lets not make this ugly and slew for peace." Illya suggested.

That only served to piss Rin off as her face contorted in anger.

"Peace…peace, YOU WANT PEACE!!! After your father killed ours years ago!!"

Illya's eyes widened at the sudden revelation along with Shirou, she heard about the death of the Tohsaka head, and the eventual suicide of their mother from grief, to think it was Kiritsugu that did the deed.

Before Illya could say anything, Rin reached into her jacket and pulled out a jewel laden sword, Illya immediately backed up upon seeing it.

"Is that the-"

"Jewel Swoord Zelretch, like me it can draw mana from parallel realities!!" Ruby cried out finishing Illya's sentence.

"The most prized possession of the Tohsaka family, with this I can see to it the both of you are toast and your father is next!" Rin declared.

"Illya take me into your hand!!" Ruby called out.

Illya took a hold of Ruby and in doing so changed into the magical girl outfit.

"Seriously!!" She lamented.

"Are you even taking this seriously, wearing such a ridiculous outfit like that!" Rin shouted in anger.

"As if I wanted to wear this!!"

Having enough of the nonsense Rin swung the jewel sword sending a colorful arc of magical energy directly at Illya, who responded with a prana blast, smoke filled the area blinding everyone present, Illya used the opportunity to test her new flight abilities and made her way out of the smoldering alley way as Shirou followed jumping roof to roof.

The sibling duo made their way to the Fuyuki park to rest and regroup, they began to discuss the situation.

"We have to end this fight fast Illya I can't see any reason to harm them, they're only consumed by years of grief and anger." Shirou stated.

"I'm not looking to kill them if I can help it, just subdue them so we can calm their anger and seek a truce, it's just going to be difficult especially with that Rin girl, her sister seems easier though."

"How can we do that?"

"I have something I keep on me that can knock them out, we can tie them up to one of the trees and negotiate from there."

She pulled out a couple of glass vials containing a purple liquid and gave one to her brother.

"A knockout solution I developed in my workshop, if we can hit them with this we'll be good."

"Ok, what's the plan?" Shirou asked.

"I'm gonna be the one to handle Rin, I can match the jewel sword with Ruby here, you can take on the other one, Sakura I believe was the name, you might be able to to catch her with the toxin quickly."

30 minutes pass since the plan was set and they awaited the arrival of the Tohsaka siblings, Illya stood out in the open while Shirou hid in the brush.

"Finally decided to stay and fight I see, I pegged you for a coward Einzburn." Rin mocked as she walked her way in front of her foe.

"On the contrary I would rather not take this fight in the middle of the town, even with the boundary field the damage would still remain to be noticed by regular people." Illya responded.

"Well we agree on something, however that won't stop me from trying to shred you up." Rin snarled.

The two circle each other measuring and analyzing, waiting to see who blinked first.

With swift movement Rin drew the jewel sword and sent a cutting blast straight at Illya, who in turn once more countered with a prana blast.

Once more the two attacks took each other out but this time Rin followed up with something as she took several gems and tossed them at her opponent.

"Stark GroB zwei!!" Rin shouted.

The gems burst like flash bangs into bright lights blinding Illya for a moment stunning her long enough to allow Rin to land a hard kick to the side of Illya's face. Meanwhile all Shirou could do was sit back on the lookout for Sakura but he didn't want to just watch his sister fight alone, but Illya was adamant to stick to the plan as is.

Eventually he spotted Sakura sneaking about the brush. Shirou proceeded to sneak his way around and intercept her.

Sakura was in position to hit Illya with a gandr shot as soon as she could when a arrow shot by her hitting a nearby tree, she immediately retreated as she refocused her aim at the assailant before taking shots at them.

Shirou quickly blocked each gandr with a pair of Chinese short swords and rushed Sakura successfully pinning her, and then hitting her with the knockout toxin, she fell slump against the tree.

Meanwhile Rin was firing gandr of her own against Illya who took out each shot and took to the air.

"Fight me fairly!!" Rin shouted.

"Yeah try and take me down princess." Illya mocked.

Rin reinforced her legs and jumped to try and swat Illya out of the sky with the jewel sword only for Illya to move aside and quickly entrap her with string.

"Damnit!!" Rin yelled in frustration as Illya caught her mid fall and landed on the ground dumping Rin in the process like a sack of potatoes.

"Don't think you've won little Miss albino!"

"Oh but I have." Illya said bluntly.

She took her knockout solution and took care of Rin right there.

"Shirou! Lets tie these two up then get ready to negotiate."

"On it sis." Shirou responded.

An hour would pass and Rin and Sakura's eyes fluttered open to find themselves tied to one of the tees.

"What the hell!" She shouted.

"Don't try anything."

Rin looked in front of her and saw Illya stand in front of her arms crossed.

"I took the liberty of reinforcing the ropes."

"What are planning." Rin spat while Sakura looked nervous.

"To talk." Illya said.

And that is the second chapter, hope you all enjoyed it, let me know what you think. The next chapter starts with slue for peace between the two pairs of siblings, and then goes into a college field trip for Illya to have her first archeological expedition.
