AN: After binge-watching some anime I've seen when I was in my sophomore year, it inspires me to write some new crossovers. Anyways enjoy the chapter.


Ch 22 A Peace of Mind

Ritsuka got up from the bed, he cannot sleep. He looks over to his left where Mashu slept while holding Romani in her arms. He leans over, kissing their foreheads. "(I'll be right back.)" he got up, slipping on his slippers walking out of the room.

He decided to walk around the school, thinking a night stroll would help him relax. Ritsuka walks around the dark halls of the school, he saw a doorway to the balcony and walks to it. Ritsuka sat down at the ledge staring at the starry night sky. "What a beautiful night." He closes his eyes, letting the breeze flow through his hair. (Insert Fate/Grand Order -ADF: Babylonia- OST Vol.1 - #13 Just One Hope)

"Fujimaru-dono?"

"WAH!" Ritsuka turns around seeing Ushiwakamaru, Jing Ke, and Ereshkigal standing behind him. "Ushiwaka,"

Ushiwakamaru skips over to her master, sitting on the ledge next to him. "Can't sleep Fujimaru-dono?" she asked him with a smile.

Ritsuka nodded to his Rider's question. "Yeah, it's been a rough week." He explains.

"A rough week, huh?" Jing Ke sat down next to her master with a bottle of booze in her hands. "I believe I have something to ease your mind master." She showed the bottle to him.

Ritsuka shook his head. "I shouldn't, I had my alcohol this afternoon Jing Ke." He jokes with the Assassin, "I don't want to sleep in tomorrow when there's a class in the morning." He gave a light chuckle.

Ereshkigal leans on the rims of the balcony looking at the stars. "We were about to have some ourselves, taking a small break from our patrol around the school." She explains to her favorite human. "A small drop wouldn't hurt, Fujimaru."

"Alright, just one cup." Ritsuka gave in to their demands. "Since Galahad is around, I wouldn't get affected by the effects."

Jing Ke poured some booze in a small cup for her master. She hands it over to him with a smile, "Here you go, master." She smiles, pouring another for Ushiwakamaru then for Ereshkigal.

"Thank you, Jing Ke." The Goddess took the cup from the Assassin, taking a small sip. "Ah, that hit's the spot." She sighs,

Ushiwakamaru took a sip as well, smiling savoring the taste. "Who knew that Muramasa-sama had this laying around the kitchen of his." She was grateful to encounter this delicacy.

Ritsuka crosses his legs, staring up at the sky. "Gramps is full of surprise,"

"Indeed, I am grateful for him bringing the bottle with him." Jing Ke took another sip from the bottle. "Gah! That sure hits the spot, the moon shines brightly tonight master." She raises the bottle to the moon.

"You say it, Jing Ke." Ereshkigal sips her share of the alcohol that was given to her.

Ritsuka smiles, enjoying the quality time with his Servants. A sound of a pebble echo in the hall behind them, the three Servants went into their battle position ready to protect their master. "You can come out from there." Ritsuka eyed the entrance to the balcony.

The sounds of footsteps came forward from the entrance. Jamie walks into the light, having a nervous expression written on his face. "H-Hello Ritsuka. Having a nice night?" he chuckles nervously for being caught by his 'brother'.

"James Potter Jr," Ereshkigal lowers her guard along with the other two.

Jing Ke examines her master's younger sibling; Jamie felt a bit awkward seeing the Assassin staring at him. "Um…what are you doing?" he asked the Servant.

"I'm just seeing if you pose a danger to my master." Jing Ke explains before stepping back next to Ritsuka. "I see what I need to see." She said to the boy.

Jamie nodded, still confused about what just happened with this woman. "Okay…" he trails off. "That was weird." He commented.

Ritsuka places his hand on his chin, his mouth curls into a small smirk. "You know what's weird? That you're out here with me instead of sleeping and being in bed as the others." He eyed his 'brother' for being out past curfew.

"Fujimaru-dono's right." Ushiwakamaru looks at the red-haired boy, curious why he's out so late. "Care to explain yourself, Jamie-sama?" the Rider asked the young boy.

Jamie froze, seeing them being on to him. "W-Well, I was going to the…BATHROOM! Yes, the bathroom." He could feel the sweat from his forehead and back, a trait that indicates he was lying.

"Huh-uh, sure." Ereshkigal nodded, seeing through his lie.

"Yes, that the truth! So nothing suspicious about me here!" Jamie sang, still sweating like a pig for lying.

Ushiwakamaru looks over to her lord, hoping he wouldn't fall for an obvious lie. "Fujimaru-dono-"

Ritsuka sighs, placing his hands on his side. "Jamie, I'll look over this transgression unless you tell me the truth why you're really out here." He reasons with the boy, he wants to give him the benefit of a doubt. A chance to explain himself as a responsible student and a growing person.

Jamie was shocked, usually the Professors would just give him detention for a week if he was caught out past curfew. However, Ritsuka was willing to let this go and treats him as an equal. "A-Alright, I was walking around because I have a nightmare about…well you." he looks away, embarrassed to say it.

"A nightmare?" Jing Ke questions, she looks at her master seeing what he'll do.

"I see." Ritsuka looks at his three Servants next to him, "Can you three leave us alone for just a few minutes?" He asked them, wanting to be alone with Jamie.

They all nodded, agreeing with his request. "We'll be in our Spirit forms, Fujimaru-dono." Ushiwakamaru understood what her lord is doing.

"Yes, call us if you need of us." Jing Ke dematerializes along with Ereshkigal and Ushiwakamaru giving their master some privacy.

Jamie watches his older 'brother' walking to the rims of the balcony, he sat down on the ground with one arm on his knees. He looks at him with a calm smile, "Sit here," he pats the ground next to him.


The red-haired boy blinks at the sudden gesture before walking over. He sat down next to him, hands hugging his legs. "So, what's this nightmare you had about? You told me that I'm in it." he looks up at the sky.

"Mmm-mmm," Jamie nodded as an answer.

"Care to tell me?" Ritsuka asked, waiting for him to tell what the nightmare is about.

Jamie blinks of times before getting up. "Y-You know what, this was stupid." He laughs, hiding the fact he is scared, scared of his dream will come true. "It's just a dream, nothing to get so work up over." He smiles at him about to leave.

"You know, I know I find it better to tell someone you anxiety." Ritsuka informs his 'brother', not looking at him.

Jamie froze in place, hearing what Ritsuka has to say. "As a matter of fact, one time I disclosed to mother and brother about my problems in life," Ritsuka explains to him.

"Like Mum and me?" Jamie turns to the Magus, interested in what he said.

Ritsuka shook his head, "No, those two are completely different people. Mother claimed me as her own making brother my brother, however, this isn't about me." he looks at Jamie, wanting to help him. "This conversation is about you."

The young Gryffindor thought for a moment before sitting back down next to Ritsuka. "In my nightmare, that man with the blue bow." Jamie started to tell his dream to his 'brother'. "I saw him succeeding in killing you…"

The black-haired man understands now why Jamie is here. "I see," Ritsuka nodded.

"I-I felt so scared when that arrow came flying through the window, almost hitting you." Jamie breathes in, his body is shaking with many emotions. "Then you rushed out, knowing the man is out there. I was terrified that you might not come back." he looks at Ritsuka, tears were forming in his eyes, fearing that he'll end up like Harry.

"Why did you do that knowing the danger?" Jamie sniffs.

Ritsuka felt a bit guilty for causing his 'brother' such worry. He sighs, looking up at the starry night. "Jamie, I'm sorry for putting you all through this. I didn't consider what you all were feeling when I ran out like that." He apologies to the boy.

"However, I can't promise that it'll happen again." This caused Jamie to look at him with a terrified look. "He'll be back, I'm sure of it. When he does, I'll confront him." Ritsuka explains that this isn't the end of the Archer of Phoenicia.

"B-But you'll die!" Jamie exclaims in his face. He cannot believe that Ritsuka would risks his life again from that man. "Are you even scared when that man tries to kill you or you just like being in danger!?" He questions if Ritsuka ever felt fear because, at this moment, he's not.

Ritsuka looks at Jamie, crying and angry with his decision. He could tell Jamie's hurting with this. "I am scared," he answers his question.

Jamie looks at his brother, admitting he is scared. "What?"

"You know, everyone gets scared sometimes, even me," Ritsuka admits to Jamie that he's scared. "In all honesty, I'm scared of what would happen if I failed and what will happen to this world and my family."

"So you're scared for us then?" Jamie looks at him, listening to his words.

Ritsuka nodded, "Of course, you all have many new experiences that await you, however, you need to work hard to achieve it." he smiles at the growing boy.

"Work hard? What does that mean?" Jamie tilts his head, wondering what he was saying.

Ritsuka chuckles, before remembering what someone said. "A friend of mine said this to Mashu once, 'What will you come to love? What will you come to detest? What do you feel is precious? And what do you perceive as evil? Those are choices that you perceive yourself.'" The Magus smiles at the advice in his head. "We learn many things and encounter many landscapes, that is how your life becomes satanical."

Jamie looks a bit lost in those words he was listening to. "I'm sorry, but what?" he asked.

Ritsuka looks at Jamie with a calm expression. "You see, it's not that you create the world. The world creates you." he smiles at him. "In short Jamie, you need to make choices that fit you. Choices that will help you grow as a person."

"So, whatever choices we make new experience in life," Jamie stated from what he understood. "And from that experience it creates you as a person. Is that why you're putting yourself in danger?"

"Yes, I'm afraid that the danger will prevent all of you to grow as humans." Ritsuka looks down at his Command Seals, griping his hand in a fist. "I want everyone to explore the world, from that it'll make them a better person." He chuckles, wanting to thank Mozart for saying those words of wisdom.

Jamie ponders, reflecting on the advice and reason why Ritsuka risk his life. He looks up to face him, smiling. "I understand now," he got up from the floor.

Ritsuka stood up, looking at Jamie in the eyes. "Then we're good?" he asked.

"Yeah, we're good." Jamie smiles before yawning.

"It's getting late." Ritsuka commented, "You should be getting back to your dorm room now," he smiles at him.

Jamie nodded, rubbing his eyes. "And don't worry, I won't report you to Dumbledore this time. Assassin?" Jing Ke materializes next to Ritsuka, hearing her lord calling her name.

"Yes, master?" Jing Ke asked her master.

Ritsuka turns to the Assassin, knowing she'll help. "Assassin, can you take Jamie back to the Gryffindor Tower? I think that woman will catch him out and about in the halls unless he has somewhat a hall pass." He explains to his loyal Servant.

Jing Ke nodded, inclining her head to herm master's request. "Of course, master." She walks over to the boy, patting him on the back. "Come along, Lord Jamie. Time for you to head straight for bed." She said to the sleepy boy.

"Alright," Jamie started to follow the Assassin before he turns to Ritsuka. "Ritsuka?" he calls his name.

"Yes, Jamie?" Ritsuka asked his 'brother', curious on what he wants.

The red-haired boy smiles at him, thinking back at the little advice he gave him. "Thank you, for the advice." He yawns before following Jing Ke back to the Gryffindor Tower.

Ushiwakamaru and Ereshkigal materialize next to him, watching their fellow Servant leads their master's 'brother' back. "Fujimaru-dono, you should head back to," Ushiwakamaru suggested. "It's getting late for you as well,"

Ritsuka chuckles, he stretches feeling his body getting fatigue just standing there. "I think you're right, Ushiwaka." He smiles before walking back inside.

"We'll be keeping a watchful eye tonight, Fujimaru." The Goddess of the Underworld ensures her mater. "Have a nice evening," she waved, watching him enter the shadowy halls of Hogwarts. (End song)


The next day Koyanskaya was having her usual morning tea with Parvati and Muramasa. They were sitting at the table in the kitchen that was provided by the Headmaster on the Saber's request. The Alter Ego places down her teacup, satisfied like always when it comes to her tea. "Ah, nothing like a fresh batch of tea. It's good for the nerves," The fox commented on the drink.

Parvati drank her cup, placing it down when she had enough. "Yes, the taste and the smell does give off a peaceful feeling within you." she drinks once more. She looks over to the Blacksmith who's finished with his tea. "Thank you once again, Saber for the tea."

Muramasa smiles at his fellow Pseudo-Servant for the compliment. "Thank you, Lancer." He thank her.

"Master Saber, please allow Beely to take the masters cups." The House Elf walks up to them, offering her service.

Parvati shook her head to the Elf. "Oh, you guys don't need t worry about us." The Lancer smiles at the elves, not wanting them to overwork themselves.

"O-Oh, if mistress Lancer and masters are alright with that," Beely said, unsure what to make of it. "However-"

"However, you should just focus on the students and staffs dishes, nothing else." Muramasa interrupts the House Elf. "You don't need to overexert yourselves, we'll handle our own dishes," He orders the elf.

Beely nodded before walking off to prepare for lunch for the school. "I swear they're more concern with the students more then themselves." Koyanskaya mixed her tea with some sugar, observing the elves at work.

"There's nothing we can do for them; they were born into servitude," Muramasa explains, feeling bad for the poor creatures. "They know nothing of freedom,"

"Yes, but at least they're treated fairly by the staff of Hogwarts and other noble families." Parvati felt sympathy for them.

The doors burst opened by Minister Fudge and his entourage with Umbridge leading the way. A House Elf walks up to greet the Wizards. "Greetings, Ministry what can Milly do for-"

"Move aside elf, I have important matters to discuss with this Koyanskaya." Fudge push the elf to the side before Umbridge points to where the Servants were sitting.

"Right over there Minister, that Mud-blood with the pink hair." Umbridge gave a confident smirk as they approached the Chaldean Servants.

Koyanskaya sighs, feeling her morning is ruined when the toad spoke. "Welp, there goes my breakfast." She commented, noticing the Minister.

Muramasa and Parvati remain calm as ever, trying to ignore the fact they're judging on their outfits. "Just try and hold on a bit longer, fox." Muramasa place down his cup. Parvati nodded, supporting the Alter Ego to bear with it.

Koyanskaya huffs, turning herself to face the Ministry officials. "Good morning gentlemen…and woman," The fox gave a stink eye to the misshaped woman. "How may I-"

"Yes, place me to meet with Mr. Potter this instant. Make sure-"

"I'm sorry but Mr. Fujimaru is with his class this morning and is extremely busy," Koyanskaya emphasizes her master's proper name to the stubborn Wizards. "If you would like to make an appointment at a later-"

"Nonsense, Mr. Potter always has time for his supporters Servant." Fudge interrupts the Alter Ego's explanation. That was a mistake, "Now tell Mr. Potter that I want to-"

"Minister Fudge, as Mr. Fujimaru's secretary I strongly suggest that you wait in line like the others who want to speak with him," Koyanskaya answered, uncaring for the amendments shock plastered on their faces.

"H-How dare you! You have no right to speak to the Minister like that!" An Auror defends the cowardly man.

"Show some respects to the Minister, you bitch!" The other Auror drew his wand, pointing at it to her neck.

Umbridge had a sadistic smile, seeing this Mud-blood at her place. "N-Now then if you want my guard to…to…to…" Fudge's face pales, the fox isn't fazed by the fact a wand is at her throat. Instead, she has this more horrid sadistic expression than Dolores, "W-Why a-are y-y-you m-making that face?" Fudge demands, frightened to see the look in her eyes.

"Ohohohohoho, this is way entertaining than I initially thought." Koyanskaya giggles before glaring at each of them. "You think that just because you being in power by name will scare me into submission? Think again you little insects, I have dealt with many politicians like you in my dimension."

"What does that mean Mud-blood?" Umbridge gains the courage to ignore the menacing glare of the former Apostle of the Alien God. "What can someone like you possibly do that cause people above yourself to fear you? If anything your talking a big game here, Koyan-what's-you-call-it." she sneers at the thought that this lowlife is better than her, a Pureblood in her standards.

Muramasa knows with enough insults made to this woman, they're making a big mistake. "If I was you, I better apologize to Koyanskaya." The Saber encourage the Ministry, seeing this is the right thing to do. However some other side of him rather see this to the end. "She's not to be taken lightly due to her…records." He coughs.

"You have no say in this matter, servant!" Fudge yelled at the Blacksmith for butting in this. "Now apologizes to me and we'll let this inconvenience slide."

The Auror push his wand further to her throat, smirking at her seeing she can't do anything. "Yeah, you're better apologize. I am a respective member of the Auror Corps, so get down on your knees and lick m-" Koyanskaya grabs his wand with a smile.

"Ah, the sound of pitiful insects trying to act tough." The Alter Ego grips his wand tight; he tries to retrieve his wand from her, but it wouldn't budge. " I've killed many people and many more when I was Fujimaru's enemy."

"L-Let go you filthy Mud-" The Auror's eyes widen, so did everyone else. The wand started to crack, by each minute the crack exaggerates before finally giving in to the Servant's pressure.

The Auror stumbles back, looking at the splinters that were his wand on the ground. "W-W-What did you-" The Auror look at the menacing eyes of Tamamo Vitch, eyes that oozes fear.

"Here we go," Parvati sighs, drinking her tea. She wanted to help them, sure; but after the display of obviously provoking the Alter Ego. The Lancer changed her mind, a well-deserved lesson for them not to underestimating people.

Koyanskaya steps forward, letting her heels click loudly on the floor. Umbridge steps forward, not learning from the Auror's mistake. "Now see here you filthy Mud-blood, we are the Ministry and as we see it you have violated a Wizard's tool you are herby-"

"I wouldn't worry about that." Koyanskaya giggles, seeing she has the advantage.

"Oh, you better worry. You're being arrested and going straight to Azka-"

"On Code of Wand Usage, under no circumstances that a Witch or Wizard shall harm or threaten a being without a wand unless they're provoked," Koyanskaya stated, their faces paled upon hearing the Code.

"If any incident that involves said Witch or Wizard break this code then they'll be facing a court hearing by the Provoked and the entire International Confederation of Wizards to see an appropriate punishment." She smiles.

"H-How di-"

"Seeing that I own no wand and don't need of one and provoked me to defend myself, I can send a message that you all broke the Code. Yay for you!" Koyanskaya cheered, loving the paled and fear written on their faces, "Now if you don't want an international involvement taking place here, Minister. I suggest that you will make an appointment that is reasonable for both parties." She gave them a gaze of fear for being provoked.

"Do...I…make…myself…clear?" Koyanskaya asked them with more malice.

Feeling the killer intent from her eyes, Fudge recollect himself before turning around. "V-Very well then, make the appointment at appropriate time servant." He orders Koyanskaya, not wanting the other Ministries to get involved.

Koyanskaya smiles, seeing her method of getting what she wants is working. "Alrighty then, I'll put you on Friday at four-o-clock sharp." She cheerfully announced.

"WHAT!? That's not the appropriate time for the Minister!" Umbridge comes up right in her face, her face was red with disbelief at how late the time was.

"Oh, is the time not suitable for the like of you sugar?" Koyanskaya leans forward with a cheerful tone. "If it isn't then…(I'll send another report of how you mistreat children here to the Confederation and the Mundane government, I'm sure they'll love to hear all about your consideration to their education and safety with your…medieval ways, you Pink Bitch.)" she licks her lips, letting the threat sink into her core.

Umbridge's lips tremble with anger for using this tactics on her. "You're bluff-"

"(Am I now? Well when it comes to my job, I never bluff.)" Umbridge can tell that the fox meant what she said. She walks back to Muramasa and Parvati waiting for her. "You have one chance left after that…we'll see who's bluffing." She looks over to the Minister and his lackeys still trembling in fear.

Fudge froze seeing her vixen eyes lay on him. "Is four-o-clock suit your schedule Minister?" Koyanskaya asked him.

"Y-Yes, of course." Fudge felt a sudden chill from her gaze if he disagrees. He turns around, heading straight to the door. "Come along Dolores, we have a meeting with the Headmaster now." He shuffles away, scared out of his mind of the Alter Ego.

Umbridge looks at the Minister then at Koyanskaya. "Have a nice day and thank you for doing business with Chaldea." She waves at the toad. Umbridge's face turns red before huffing away, following Fudge.

Koyanskaya turns to her colleagues who just watch the whole engagement. "What?" She crosses her arms.

Muramasa simply took his tea and sip it. "Nothing, just remind me to never to cross paths with you ever." He continues to drink his lukewarm tea.

"Same," Parvati commented, never wanting to face the fox in a game of politics,

Koyanskaya blushed before playfully waving at them. "Awe, shucks that meant a lot you two." She smiles.


AN: So I have something plan for Umbridge and Koyanskaya later. Anyways please leave a comment or review.
