AN: hey this is maticore with yet another one of my usual announcements to proclaim my lack of ownership over IPs. Today the IPs are the Fate and harry potter properties. Thank you for reading.

Return of a Guardian

Emiya Clan

In Fuyuki City there was traditionally Two 'owners'. This depended on which side of the divide you lived on. As neither side payed any attention to the other. At least that was up until the Emiya clan moved into the city. Emiya is a notorious name, one that for years has been attributed to a mercenary for hire. So of course the local government and Yakuza, the Mundane owners of the city would take notice and approach the small family group. If only to make sure that there will be no issues with them.

It was the same with the two Magus owners of the city. The Matou and the Tohsaka. Neither had been happy that the Emiya had been named the 'third' owners of the city but when the reasons had been explained. Neither complained.

The Emiya where acting as the new Neutral party between the Magus association and the Dead apostal ancestors. It was helped that the Emiya clan had Young Illya BruneStud as a ward.

Apparently Altrouge decided as her heir The girl was entitled to her name but because of her position she could not as primary guardian so She had entrusted Kiritsugu with that responsibility. She would be taking up the place as an aunt and when Illya is old enough to understand she would explain the circumstances.

So here she was a young girl sitting in the estate that had now been named Emiya estate. She was five years old she wished her daddy didn't have to work as much. Her brother was off to school. So she was doing her pre-school work being watched by a familiar. It just wasn't the same. She liked it when Primmy was over or she could stay with Aunty Altrouge or Aunty Arcuid. She knew that they were vampires and she had listened at the door one time when she was supposed to be going to bed. She had heard that Aunty Alt was actually her great granny. But she was just too silly for that, so Aunty it was!

Her Pre-school work was very easy, well she couldn't complain she had started to practice her mage craft. Her Aunty did not give daddy much choice in the matter. She had been staying with aunty Alt while Daddy was doing a job for the bank when aunty made a formal craft circle. And explained that it was to find her specializations in her magic.

Doing the ritual Aunty found out that she was apparently strange. But she explained that it was probably a result from the accident in her youth. So aunty explained that her Origin was Aegis and Destruction While her Element was Life and Death She also had a sorcery trait but what it was was undefinable at the moment.

This was just after her fourth birthday and since then she had only been allowed to practice two really simple spells. Structural analysis and reinforcement. She supposed she could understand why she was not allowed to try anything else yet she would be turning five next week. She would be going to magic school. She had a feeling that daddy would not have let her go if they did not teach the normal subjects as well as magic, but they do so daddy was happy.

She heard a noise coming from within the house. That should not be possible. Daddy puts up defences when ever he has to leave. So standing up and heading through the house she looked about trying to find the source of the noise. As she was walking down on of the corridors she felt a sharp pain on the back of her neck and the world faded to black as she fell to the ground.

It must have been hours later when she woke up as she was in what looked like a hotel. A expensive one. She was on a chair facing a bed tied to its wooden structure. There must have been runes or a spell of some kind on the ropes as her arms and legs where parallelized .

Looking about she was really starting to panic. Who had taken her? Why? She didn't know. Fear started to hit. That was when the door opened and a man walked in . He was in what looked like a blue top and a look on his face as if he had a bad smell underneath his nose.

"ahh I see your awake" he said in a tone of superiority. Despite her panic she tried to appear calm in front of this person. She just glared at him as a reply getting a chuckle as a response.

"I guess I Should have expected no less from a child of that man." while he was talking what looked like a large orb of metal floated into the room and orbited next to him.

"i shall tell you all that you need to know. I am from the Archibald family and have been sent to get revenge on the magus killer for his part in what happened four years ago." The man was practically shaking with rage.

"Since he is the only one not protected. He is the one I must attack so tell me what is your name." She was still glaring at the man. He was wanting to take away her family. She would do anything to protect her family, to be loved by her family,to have a family. According to Aunty Altrouge when she was a baby, to young to remember, she had lost her parents . So she would do anything to keep her father!.

She had just finished her Cigarette, and it felt good! A small celebration after she blew that Bitch semmiramis the Fuck up! Hmm looking back she had to wonder if she and her father had just sat and talked some times, would things have turned out the way it did? Would she have still have done what she did? She didn't know. She would never know.

She felt herself being recalled back into that fucking device of prana. God she was glad she wasn't a caster. While Morgan did teach her some mage craft She was ill fit for it. And right now considering what she knew about that so called device, she was glad she had abstained from magic and chosen the sword. The path of the sword was so much simpler. All one needed to do was learn the skills and practice and soon you could be semi decent.

After her Dematerialization she was back on Camlann again. It was always just her and her father that were kept here. It was a sort of mental torture for her as she remembered her last moments she was wanting to get at least some kind of acknowledgement or love that a parent should show a child but she had forever been denied As Morganna was always to busy with her personal crusade and Arturia had always shut herself off from the world to try and make the best decisions for everyone.

So here she was in her personal hell again fully expecting to have to watch Arturia get summoned again and again. As is expected of a hero of her stature but her Mordred. No she will be here for almost all of eternity before her next summon, her sanity preserved forcefully by the worlds conscience. It was right then she hear the pleading of what sounded like a little girl.

It almost sounded like praying.

She could feel the pull of Prana. Even then She had the choice she could stay and wait for a while or take the chance. Fuck it both her and her father had an absurdly high Luck stat odds are something interesting will come out of this. So latching onto this trail of prana with her own core and the two connected. Almost immediately there was a feeling of familiarity as she was pulled straight to the side of her new master.

Just after the Archibald had threatened her family the Fear that she had been pushing down with relative success burst out like an exploding dam. And then to the surprise of both her and apparently the Archibald by the look on his face a large Mage circle appeared in red in the centre of the room.

The red illumination coming from the prana that was making the circle. Looking at it with fascination as she had never seen anything like it before she closed her eyes and started to pray for help.

The Archibald seemed to notice this so walked up to her and slapped her as hard as he could bursting her lip as she flew out of the chair and onto the illuminated floor. Big mistake. It was only then did the Archibald notice his mistake. The light pulsed as her blood was accepted as it ran free of the wound on her face and with a final pulse motes of light gathered together to form a body.

To the Archibald's disbelief a servant had been summoned. Outside of the grail wars. But how this runt should not have been able to do it. They were just too powerful for that .to be done.

Looking about Mordred assessed the situation she had been been summoned into. She noted several things. First there was a little girl who was getting beaten and she was definitely not happy with that. Two it would seem that the girl was her new master. Also looking at the girl she was almost the spitting image of her and arturia. This was going to get complicated.

So here Mordred was standing knowing that the information that could help her, the information that id provided from the Root to every summoned servant to ensure that they don't have to much of a culture shock would take time to sort itself out in her head so for now she would sort out this little debacle.

Lifting Clarent She asks simply "why are you attacking my master?" Seeing that the man was intimidated by her armour brought a smile to her face. It usually did.

"i am here to get revenge For what her Father did to a member of my Family!" Screeched the man. It was at that moment everything changed. The door was blown of its hinges and a small fifteen year old looking girl walks in. Her eyes a menacing red glow everyone in the room had tensed until a cry rang out. "Aunty Altrouge!" cried the young girl in joy and relief.

"Ahh there you are Illya I was coming by to watch you for your father and when I arrived the house was a shambles. So I thought to myself who would be stupid enough to attack a house with my descendant in it." said Altrouge almost conversationally as she walked into the room.

"Now we know there are magical s who are thick enough but they are terrified of me and my powers." she explained. While nodding to herself while walking up to Mordred and looking at her helmet and taking a sniff of the air around her. "Oh why hello dear welcome back it has been ever such a long time" she said to Mordred s wide eyed shock her helm had magic's that kept her identity a secret how had she done that?

Altrouge just went right on with her explanation as she sat on the bed and pulled the young five year old onto her lap and gave her a hug. "It would not be The association as they know that the Clan are under my protection due to having Illya here as there Ward due to me not being able to raise her properly, I have never been human I do not know how to raise a human child. Because of this it would have to be one of the Families." she nodded to herself

"Yes most Likely from what grandfather told me. The Archibald's as the Einzberns like to play the Long game. And will most likely make their move during the next war." this was only confirmed as the man who had been standing sweating and grinding his teeth twitched as Altrouge was practically calling his family suicidal and stupid.

"Well now that the show and tell is over I shall take the little one out." she then turned to Mordred who had been utterly confused. "my dear would you clean up when I leave" she said while pointing at the man leaving no room for doubt at what she meant. And with that she stood holding the small child in her arms and left.

It was then that the Aura that had infiltrated the room and had been holding them all in place vanished . And the Archibald assassin dropped to the ground, Oh Gawd what had the families Elders put them up against. That was the fucking Eclipse Princess!

He was so lost in his mutterings that he didn't notice Mordred walk up behind him with clarent raised!

Once she was Astralized she followed the small trail of prana that indicated where her master had went. Upon arrival she found the girl talking to Altrouge. Gawd she hoped to never meet that woman again. But for some reason she seemed different, she seemed more in control, and seemed to have less of a rage about her. she also seemed to genuinely care for her master.

She also got her first clear look at her master and it was like looking in a child sized mirror. It was almost terrifying. She was so lost in thoughts she didn't hear the voice calling to her.

"Mordred I know your their." Alt said again this time she heard and re-materialized. She made sure to do it in a controlled manner so as not to scare the child. "Mordred dear why don't you take the armour and join us for a meal it would be rude to be walking about in plate all day."

Knowing from the information that was finally sorting itself out that she was correct she dematerialized the armour. The girl Illya she thought her name was stared at her. And stared at her.

She kept staring until finally she couldn't take it. "why do you keep staring little girl?" Illya blushed scarlet at being caught but she had to admit she hadn't really hidden her looks.

"erm miss I was just wondering but since we look so alike are you my momma?" she asked with that innocence that only a child could use. She couldn't even muster her usual anger at being called a woman, as for once this time it felt. Comforting. As if she was being wanted. She was wanted to provide something that her parents had never for her.

The problem was this confused her to no end. And she had no idea how to answer. As despite what the stories say she was a mother she had given birth but due to her position in the rebel army she had to foster her child. A child that she would never know what happened to. And most would never know existed.

She was saved by Alt who responded "no, Little one she isn't but there is a chance that like me she is related to you and that is why you look alike." she explained getting a nod "but until I can get that checked I want you to go do your home work so I can talk to the nice lady." at that the little girl trudged away to her room looking as if she had been condemned causing the two to snicker.

It was then that altrouges entire visage changed "Listen carfuly Mordred and I don't want any of your shit This clan is under the protection of both me my sister and zelretch. But as you noticed we cannot be everywhere all the time." she said getting a nod

"That little girl is very important and is a con-flux, the centre point of events in multiple realities according to Zelretch. Now I happen to have already done a full in-depth genealogy of her." now this got Mordred s attention.

"Now wasn't I surprised to find out that you were a mother, as when I knew you, you where spouting out to be nothing but a man and then here I find my great grand daughter is also related to arturia through you." the look of genuine humour on the vampires face only lasted a minute.

"So here is my proposal we both know she is your master but she is sorely lacking for female company. You can be as tomboyish as you want just be a woman and help kiritsugu raise her. You can be a sister or a mother I don't care just as long as she is safe . But remember she is the heir to the pendragon clan since both you and Arturia are dead the head ship falls to her, I suggest making use of this opportunity."
