Scarlett (Part 2)
X-X-X-X
X-X Dialogue One X-X
Scarlett was enjoying a cup of coffee, feeling completely relaxed...despite the room she is intruding in doesn't belong to her. Well, her Master has a soft spot for the gender-bent female...a real life Tsundere. Noticing the smiling stare her Master gave to her...well, Scarlett could only raise a brow as she turned towards them.
"Master, why are you staring at me like that? E-Even if you ask, I won't share my coffee with you! T-That'd...be an indirect kiss...you know..."
X-X Dialogue Two X-X
Scarlett looked towards her Master, somewhat confused as to the strange request they had for her. While she didn't mind it...since it is their Master asking...but why would they want to see her childhood pictures? It wasn't like she didn't have them, considering she stored just about anything in her Inventory...it's just an unusual request.
"I don't mind...just don't ask to look at the ones when I got forced to dress up in super girly outfits."
X-X Dialogue Three (Archer EMIYA) X-X
Scarlett hid out in her Master's room...hiding from the red Archer. The man wanted to copy her weapons, even politely requesting it...but that was enough to send the redhead running for the hills. She and him get along splendidly due to their similar abilities, but...well, she was pouting. Not even her Master was able to coax her out of the corner of the room beneath the blanket she stole from their bed.
"I don't hate Archer-san, but...If he copies my weapons...then what use will I have...? I don't want that...he might take my place..." Scarlett gave her Master a surprised look when they said they would replace her so easily. "D-Do you mean that? It makes me happy to hear that...then...I'll give him one or two weapons...so that he can protect you better, Master."
X-X Dialogue Four (Urameshi Yuiko) X-X
Scarlett had a wide range of weapons and materials spread out across the blanket she laid out in the open space of the room. They were materials unusable in Chaldea, but that didn't stop Scarlett from collecting them. Actually, she collected them herself in hopes of Da Vinci being able to help her upgrade or repair her weapons...but refused after seeing as the two were unable to see eye to eye on certain aspects.
"Oh, what am I doing? Yui-chan learned how to blacksmith when she was still alive so I'm hoping that I can use some of these to repair and upgrade my weapons. We made a deal. I helped her gather what she needs for her puppets if she helps me with my weapons." Scarlett tilted her head, hearing what her Master said next. "What's so scary about two Servants getting together to discuss weapons?"
X-X Dialogue Five (Marc) X-X
"Master!" Scarlett began clinging to her Master with fear written all over her face. "I beg of you, do not put me on the same team as Marc-sensei! If he finds out I was slacking with how I use my Noble Phantasm, I'll die! I'll seriously end up dead! Death from embarrassment and overtraining!"
X-X Dialogue Six (Lucy Walker) X-X
"Hm, hm, hm~!" Scarlett was humming a pleased tune, a jar of coffee beans in her hand. "Oh, I'm super happy today? Yeah, Lucy-san gave me some freshly roasted coffee beans! I can store these in my Inventory without fear of them aging a day! What's special about these? She used her unique flames to roast them! It was super cool!"
X-X Likes X-X
"My likes? Hm...that's right..." Scarlett thought long and hard about it, but the answer was obvious about her likes...but that were common likes for someone of her age and generation. "I like black coffee if that counts...no? It's too mature for someone like me? How rude!"
X-X Dislikes X-X
"My dislikes?" Scarlett didn't take long to think about it, the look of utter fear on her face. "It's not a dislike per say…more like a fear of...Spiders...for one thing...and men who has a cross on their forehead...expressionless male assassins who uses needles for another...and killing clowns..."
X-X Holy Grail X-X
"The Holy Grail? Hm...I don't need it. Rather...that kind of wish granting thing...I don't want it." Scarlett hugged her knees, looking depressed. "After all...it cannot bring back someone who died, right? Even if it could, it won't be the true version of them..."
X-X During an Event X-X
Scarlett couldn't stop herself from jumping up and down due to her excitement. She turned to her Master with sparkling eyes.
"Master! There's an Event! Please let me participate! No, rather, I will even if you deny me this! There could be rare weapons here! If not, at least some material I can use on my weapons!"
X-X Birthday X-X
"H-Hey...M-Master..." Scarlett was fidgeting, left and right...hiding something behind her back. "I-I'm not good at these type of things so..." She pulled out the box she was hiding behind her back. "H-Happy Birthday...I-I'm glad you were born...since I wouldn't be here today if not for you..."
X-X Strengthen Quest (One) Part (One) X-X
"-ster...Ma...WAKE UP, BAKA!" That was enough to startle the redhead's Master. Scarlett released an annoyed sound from the back of her throat, resembling a growl. "Really! It took me twenty minutes to wake you up! Look! Our situation right now is really weird!"
-What do you mean?-
"Well, it's weird because this isn't a Singularity we've been to...and...No, rather..." Scarlett's cheeks are dyed red. "Never mind!"
-I would say. You're dressed up really cutely.-
"D-Don't say it like that, Master!" A clear view of Scarlett shows that she's wearing a short Victorian Lolita styled dress. It's a black in color with the only white being ruffled shirt layer. "Really...this is probably Marc-sensei's fault. Mash, went to look around while I watched over you...hm? It looks like she returned. How was it?"
"It appears that we are in a forest of some type, but I have yet to see anyone or any animals. I am also unable to contact the doctor"
"I swear...I think I know where we are, but I'm hoping not..."
"Why is that?"
"..." Scarlett remained silent before she jumped into the air climbing up a tree with practice ease. "I thought so..."
"S-Scarlett?!"
"This is my hometown. If we traveled in that direction for at least an hour, we can reach the village I'm from. However...We got company, Master! Mash, prepare for combat!"
"E-Eh? What is with these huge chimera?!"
"Tiger-wolves! They're inhabitants of this island! The problem is that they're too big!" With two swords in hand, Scarlett landed before her Master and Mash. "Mash! Protect Master! I shall lead the assault!"
"Roger!"
"By the way! Don't kill them! They're a protected species!"
"Eh?!
X-X Strengthen Quest (One) Part (Two) X-X
"Thanks for your hard work. Actually when I get a close look at these guys, they're actually the cubs of Blake." Scarlett stood before the six large beasts, crossing her arms. "Oi! Why is it you're attacking me?! Blake raised you better than that!" Scarlett hissed to the cowering beasts.
-Amazing...-
"Yeah...Scarlett has a way with animals..."
-I'm amazed they actually attacked us when they're this scared of her.-
"Eh? Well, now that you mention it..."
"Sit properly!" Scarlett was releasing a scary aura and the six tiger-wolves sat up properly as if they were cats posing. "Really now! I wasn't around when you grew up, but that doesn't mean you can just attack me! Now then..." It took a while since Scarlett was checking the beasts over for wounds. The girl released a relieved sigh, patting the head of her last patient. "Okay, get going. Master...for now we should head for another location."
"Another location?"
"Un...the place I was raised and trained. It's up the mountain. The path is treacherous so we have to be careful...but before that...Mash, this time don't bother to hold back. They're zombies of some kind. Ahhh...what's happening on my island?!"
X-X Strengthen Quest (One) Part (Three) X-X
"Senpai, that was the last of the zombies, but..."
-Yeah, she's really mad-
"I hate to be the person she made angry..."
-Scarlett-chan, she's cute even when she's angry.-
"Master, I heard you!"
"S-Senpai, get behind me!"
"Geez, I'm not angry enough to kill him you know...besides he's my Master too so I'd let some things slide...For now, let's head up the mountain. Be careful, there's usually a few strong beasts around...with this situation we'd get attacked at every turn...Mash! Prepare for combat once more! Our opponent is human this time!"
"E-Eh?!"
X-X Strengthen Quest (One) Part (Four) X-X
"Why the hell are there Assassins here?! Really! Let's get up the mountain faster, Master! I'm sorry, but I'll be a bit rude."
-What do you mean?-
"Again, I'm sorry."
-Don't tell me...-
"That's right!" Scarlett easily lifted her Master princess carry. "Mash! Follow quickly! This is the fastest way!"
"Y-Yes!"
"Also! We got more Assassins coming at us so run as fast as you can! If they reach us, we'll engage in combat! Just run for now!"
"B-But...!"
"It's fine, I know this mountain like the back of my hand! We have the advantage!"
Upon reaching the house at the top of the hill, Scarlett's eyes flashed gold before she pulled out a sword from nowhere, using it to counter the arrows directed towards them. Mash was quick to move before her to protect her Master and fellow Servant. Scarlett carefully placed her Master down before producing another sword.
"...Marc-sensei?"
"...I'm afraid that I'm not the one you know as Marc. I'm merely a version summoned here to test you."
"...Let me guess, my ability isn't up to par and you were brought here to make sure I release my fullest potential? You're a shadow version of him...aren't you?"
"That's right, after all...haven't you always been holding back?"
"I-Is that true?"
"...For now, let's prepare for combat. This won't be easy...Marc-sensei is very strong...even if this isn't the real him..."
X-X Strengthen Quest (One) Part (Five) X-X
"Damn...here I was hoping I wouldn't have to release my fullest potential..." Scarlett was gasping for air, her body beaten and bruised. They were just barely able to scrape by in the fight against this Shadow Marc. "Master, do you know why I held back so often?"
-You don't trust me with your power?-
"That's not it at all...it's because I've always been afraid to show my true strength...I did once and it got someone I cared about killed when I was still alive. That's why I hold myself back."
-You're afraid."
"...that's it exactly...I lost someone close to me before...when I let myself fight at full strength. I can't control myself very well, that's why I never released my full power."
"Scarlett, if you don't fight at full potential now then we'd never win."
"I realize this. Master, do you trust me?"
-Yes.-
-I do.-
"...Thank you. If anything happens, use a Command Spell to stop me. For now...I'll be fighting at full strength! Let's go!"
X-X-X-X
"You did good...Scarlett..."
"...Liar..." Scarlett was unable to look up at the shadow version of her teacher as he patted her head, his body slowly disappearing. "You always do stupid things, sensei...Summoning a version of yourself to teach me a lesson..."
"Hey, I told you before that you look cuter with a smile. Be proud of yourself for overcoming that wall you created in your heart."
"...It was good seeing you, sensei!" Scarlett smiled up at her teacher. "I'm stronger now...thank you..."
"Farwell...my cute little student..."
-How sad...-
"That's right...Senpai..."
-Scarlett's about to blow.-
"Eh?"
"..." Despite the sullen atmosphere...Scarlett got angry. "Did you seriously have to put me in these stupid frilly outfits though?! Do you know how embarrassing to fight in this thing is?!"
"It's called dressing you up appropriately for once!"
"So what?! I hate these stupid things!"
"Be more like a girl!"
"I refuse!" Scarlett is close to tears. "I hate you! You always do things like this!"
"...I know, but if I didn't then you'd end up stuck in the same place. When I picked you up, you were a brat with no place to go. Lost and looking for a reason to live. Look at you now, a grown woman...It's a shame...That I didn't kill the bastard you fell in love with."
"I told you nothing was going on between us!"
"You had a kid!"
"That brat wasn't mine for the hundredth time! I was babysitting for my boss!"
"Lies!"
"You're a lie!"
"Geez..." Marc laughed as he was down to his head. "Well, I'll let it go now. Hey, Master over there. Summon me soon would you? This argument isn't over yet."
"Tsk."
"I heard that...You grew up quite well."
"...See you soon, sensei."
"Yeah."
"..." Scarlett was silent after her teacher disappeared. She released a sigh before turning towards her Master. "That is it, shall we return?"
"Even if you say that..."
"This is a dream...we should be waking up soon."
"Eh?"
"After all, this place doesn't exist on earth..."
X-X Master Chief Cameo (Will be incredibly short and don't expect this again) X-X
"I told you...! Why the heck were you messing with the summoning circle?!" Scarlett questioned glaring at Lucy Lily.
"I-I'm sorry!" Lucy cried covering her head with her hands.
"My video game got sucked into that summoning! My games! I can't replace them!"
"I'm sorry! But...what do we do about him?" Lucy pointed at the man in green armor...who was just as confused as Lucy and Scarlett. "...Ano...who is he anyways?"
"As I was saying...! Why did you have to use my Halo game of all things?! What are we going to tell Master?! We can't just tell him we accidentally summoned the Master Chief!"
"What's a Master Chief?" Lucy gave Scarlett a confused look. "Is it a position?"
"Forget it...Let's hurry up and do something before we get sued or something..."
"N-Nya! I can't get sued!"
"Hey..."
"Then find a way to fix this!"
"Hey..."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Master Chief." Lucy gave the man a small smile. "I'm switching with Ruler to deal with this!"
"Wait, what?"
Ruler Lucy quickly dealt with this problem...by permanently deleting the man. While he might have had an actual position in a Throne of Heroes somewhere...well, there's no way Ruler Lucy was letting the original Lucy get in trouble. Scarlett was then threatened into silence while Caster Lucy was returned...and Scarlett silently vowed to never scare Lucy again or she might end up permanently deleted.
"Wait! My Halo game is still gone! I should have gotten an autograph first instead...!"
X-X-X-X
Scarlett Ends
Scarlett is the only gamer in Chaldea...so she is the only person who would know what Halo is. Quite frankly, this kind of request was weird and I will not do it again...I only did it since Scarlett would probably love to meet him...but panic since he's a fictional character and would probably cause Chaldea to shut down or something. I had no idea what a Master Chief was until I saw it was a Halo thing. I'm not into that sort of stuff so it ended up super short. Look forward to next week since it'll be a Fate/Zero servant replacement~! That's all! Bye-bye~!
