Crazy trouble with love part 4
Dark Sakura and Shirou
Series: Fate Stay
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
-Matou residence, Sakura's room-
Sakura was at her desk trying to finish up her latest assignment. Which was a big questionnaire about your favorite person in the world. And she was trying to make sure she didn't put down too much or too revealing stuff about Shirou. Even if she thought about his cute face and adorable cheeks.
'Senpai.' she smiled while filling in the questions with neutral answers. 'I wish I had the courage to confess to you.'
As she finished the last few problems she saw a question that made her blush.
If you were to date this person, would you and why?
She gulped while letting it sink. 'Me and senpai...on a date? By ourselves?' She was about to put no idea on it before her hand stopped moving. 'But then again, what would it be like? Where would we go? What would I wear? Would he even want to?'
She turned to a mirror on her desk and saw herself but it slowly changed into a white haired girl with red eyes, a purple ribbon, a long black dress made of black ribbons, that were trimmed in red, and her face, dress and legs were covered in red markings. Her eyes widened as she jumped up while dropping the pen and saw her reflection go back to normal.
'W-What was that?!' She thought while calming down slightly. 'Best not think about it.' she looked at the paper and started pondering on a date in her head while blushing. 'Oh what should I do? I mean...senpai and me on a date?'
She imagined Shirou and herself having a date before thinking of them dancing and giving a big kiss on the lips towards the end. But then it turned negative as she imagined falling into a pond and getting wet or seeing Rin come along and take Shirou away who seemed more interested in her sister than her. The final nail was when she saw them getting married with Rin expecting a few children as they exchanged vows.
She closed her eyes while feeling close to tears at the idea. 'Senpai, no. Please don't do it!'
'Such a sorry state you're in.' Spoke a voice in her head as her body became paralyzed. 'And here I thought you had a back bone about your 'senpai'.'
Sakura's eyes widened while shocked at the voice as she tried to move, but not even a finger would twitch.
'But oh well, I guess I have to step in and help. Don't worry, I'm just going to take you over and give you a few changes, nothing more.'
That made Sakura try harder to budge before feeling a burning sensation in the back of her head.
'You can not struggle against the Black Grail or me.' She laughed as Sakura's hair started to turn white and her body developed a few red lines on her skin. 'Oh and don't worry, I'll take good care of senpai.'
'No! No!' she cried out in her head before screaming as her eyes became vacant and she grew silent.
After a few minutes her eyes turned red as she stretched and cracked her neck.
"Ah, it's good to finally get out of there." She smirked while looking herself over. "But first, a wardrobe change and then a few family members to kill."
(Later)
Shirou was currently walking out to get the mail after having a spar with Saber. What he found was the usual bills that he could pay in no time before heading back inside to get some water. Only to see a large box with his name on it in front of the door, something he DIDN'T notice when he got out.
'Who sent this?' he crouched down to look for a label. "From Sakura? Wonder what it is?" He picked it up and walked inside before setting it down on the table. He grabbed a box cutter before working on opening the top.
As he finished opening it, he saw a doll in the form of Sakura, but with averted colors, in the box with a card in its hands. 'To a great senpai, hope you have fun with my gift when you're feeling lonely.' He thought while reading the card. "Huh, how nice of her. Kind of creepy, but nice of Sakura-san."
He carefully picked the doll out and set it down while taking the box out back to throw it away. 'Maybe I should return the favor?'
As he left the doll's head slowly watched him while said girl sat in her room with a smirk seeing through the eye.
"Perfect, my Shadow Giant doll has successfully entered senpai's house. But I have to make sure I'm not detected, or my information gathering will be in jeopardy." She said while cleaning her hand of the blood of her family. "Boy that Shinji was a messy one. But oh well." 'But just to make sure, I better make a Shadow Giant doll for Rin as well.'
She held her hand out as a dark vapor rose down and swirled before forming another small doll which stood up and walked over and climbed into a smaller box as Dark Sakura closed it and taped it up before writing the sending address on it. "There we go."
She set the box down before her dress formed a small tentacle of shadow and consumed it.
"And now to wait." She chuckled darkly.
(A few days later)
"Shirou, where's Sakura at?" asked Taiga munching on some rice. "I haven't seen her in a few days."
"I really don't know myself." He said honestly as Saber finished her tenth bowl of rice. "I haven't seen her around since last week."
"Neither have I, but she did send me this." spoke Rin holding up the small doll.
"Huh? That looks like the same one she gave me." Shirou said while showing the other doll.
"I wonder what this means?"
"Maybe she's being generous." suggested Saber. "Since she's normally kind maybe she just wants to be nice?"
"Or she's just making dolls." Taiga suggested while stealing Rin's food. "Like she took it up as a hobby and wants to see how we think of them."
"Maybe?" Both said before seeing Rider walk in with a letter.
"Sakura asked me to send you this." she handed it to Shirou while sitting down.
"Oh, thanks." He said before opening it and read the following.
Dear Senpai,
I was hoping to see you sometime this week for a date. Please come to the Black Hand restaurant at five pm. And please don't be late.
Regards with lots of support,
Sakura now ex Matou
Ps. Come alone~
The other girls went wide eyed before Taiga cheered and pulled Shirou into a headlock.
"That's my Shirou! Congratulations on getting a date!"
"Gah! Taiga-nee!" he spoke up while trying to get her arm off.
"I thought you would have asked Rin, Saber, Rider, or heck even me out, but to think Sakura-chan would make the first move. You've really gotta make sure you make a good impression for her."
"Shirou." Saber said while giving him a hug. "I approve of this date."
"I'm surprised, I never knew she'd try this." remarked Rin holding her chin.
"Well things have changed." Rider said cryptically. "But congratulations Shirou, but don't break her heart."
"Oh! Let's get you a suit." smiled Taiga standing up while dragging Shirou out from the room.
"Hey wait Taiga-nee!"
The girls chuckled at this as Rider felt a little worried for him.
(A while later)
Shirou tugged at his collar while walking down the street. 'I hope this looks alright, I'm not use to wearing one on a date, or going out on a date for that matter.'
As he walked towards the restaurant, he noticed that no one was there except for a girl with white hair and wearing an odd dress that went to her legs and covered it, sitting in on a chair sipping tea. 'Did someone reserve the place after Sakura sent the letter?'
The girl put her tea down before waving at Shirou. 'Finally, I was waiting for hours.' "Senpai!"
"Wait, Sakura?" he asked walking over.
"Yep, its me senpai." She smiled. "And wow you look good in a suit."
"Oh, thanks." he smiled taking a seat across from her. "But, is that really you Sakura? You look so...different. Not in a bad way I mean."
She smiled. "Well I thought I should try a new style, but enough about me." She said while sipping her tea. "Let's talk about you senpai."
"Well, like what?"
"Oh maybe about how handsome you got or how well toned your body is." She teased. "Or maybe about your hair."
Shirou was surprised at her bluntness and blushed at the compliments.
"Or," she smirked while putting her tea down. "We can just order some dinner and talk while we eat?"
"Oh, well that sounds nice." he replied picking up the menu.
"Oh don't worry." She said while not picking up her menu. "I already ordered for us. A pasta special with light sauce and extra olive oil."
"That was nice of you." he smiled setting it down. 'Wow, she really does seem different, but in a more….I wanna say mature and adult way.'
'Perfect, he's getting used to me.' She thought. "Anything for you Senpai."
It became silent while Shirou tried thinking of the best way to ask his question.
"So how was your day senpai?"
"Pretty good, just doing some training with Saber and even Rin lending a hand."
She smiled a false smile hearing that. "Oh? That's good." 'NOT!' "But besides that anything else, like thinking of school or anything?"
"Well nothing much is happening, but I am thinking about joining the cooking club."
"Really?" She chuckled. "Shirou, I know you cook great meals that even I love, but why take a class that's below your culinary arts?"
"Well it's mainly so I can cook stuff for other people, that and so Taiga-nee doesn't eat it all up."
"Well she is a glutton." She remarked. "But I have to say, if you had a girlfriend, they would literally ask you to marry them after giving them your culinary masterpieces."
He blushed hearing that. "Heh, thanks, but I think it takes more than a good meal to win someone over."
'More than you think.' "Well I know that you can get any girl if you can just stop acting like a hero too much and just be a bit selfish. Not saying it's a bad thing, but it might hurt you later on." She said as the food came. "Oh thank you sir."
"Anytime ma'am." Spoke the waiter while walking away.
"Sakura, what makes you think I need to do that?"
"Well, sometimes you get yourself hurt when you try to protect others. I just don't want you to get hurt in anyway." She said while twirling her fork around the pasta and took a bite. 'Mm good stuff.'
He blinked at the reason while a little confused. "I don't get hurt that much."
"But when you do it is you with swords and spears in the heart." She sighed. "Look, I'm just worried about you senpai. If you died or something then I wouldn't forgive myself."
'Wow, she's really acting a little mature.' He thought before Sakura put a fork of pasta near his face.
"Say ah."
"W-What?"
"Come on, just take a bite." She smiled. "It's only fair for the date to feed the cute boyfriend of said date."
"B-Boyfriend?" he blushed before she pushed it into his mouth.
Sakura smiled as he chewed the food. "Like it?" 'He's so cute when he's shocked.'
He swallowed while feeling red in the face. "Uh, yeah." 'She said that, right? I wasn't hearing things, right?'
"Great, and here I thought my boyfriend would be hating the food." She chuckled while eating some more pasta.
"Um, Sakura? Isn't it a little soon to call me that?" he asked with a sweatdrop.
"Not really, after all aren't we on a date." She giggled while putting another fork full of pasta near his face. "Ah."
"Ah." he opened his mouth while biting into the pasta. "But, regular friends go on dates too just for fun."
"That's true, and I'm having fun with you senpai." She smiled. "Plus to be honest, even if I didn't call you that, it would have been fun just be around you." 'Always, and maybe forever~'
Shirou sighed at that. "Well what I'd like to know honestly is why you changed your hair color for this."
She looked at her hair. "Well I thought it would be a nice change, plus Rin has the opposite color so I thought it might show others that we are really sisters instead of cousins." She touched it. "Do you like it senpai?"
"Well, I admit you look good with it, I'm just use to you with purple hair."
"Oh…." she looked down while frowning. "So I don't look good is that it?" 'And after I possessed this shy host too!'
"No no! I never said that! I mean it's nice that you changed your hair but purple hair is also nice." He said waving his hands in front of him.
"Well which is better?"
"Um…...both." He admitted.
Sakura blinked before smiling. "Oh thank you so much senpai!"
'Whew, I thought she was gonna cry.' He thought before seeing her looking at her food before for a blink second he saw a red line on her hands as she resumed eating. 'Huh? What's that?'
'Such nice food, needs some blood though.'
Shirou resumed eating his own plate while thinking he was seeing things.
As they ate they didn't noticed that they accidentally had a long noodle and were eating it at the same time. They then got close and closer before they were lip to lip.
Shirou's eyes widened while Sakura's closed slowly while keeping the connection.
'Perfect, just perfect~' she thought while kissing more and closing her eyes with a smile.
'Oh no! Should I pull away or keep going?' He thought while so confused yet feeling happy at the same time.
After two minutes, Sakura moved back with a smile. "Well that was fun right?"
"U...Uh….yeah." He stuttered before seeing Sakura taking out a camera and took a picture of him.
"One for the scrapbook." She smiled while putting it away. "Desert senpai?"
"Um sure?" He said before a large sundae with his favorite flavor, vanilla, came out.
"Your desert." Spoke the waiter putting it on the table while taking the pasta away.
"Looks good doesn't it senpai?"
"Oh yeah." He said while looking surprised at the ice cream. "But did you order it?"
"Of course." She smiled. 'Especially after looking at your life.'
Shirou blinked while feeling like this was a little off for some reason.
"Senpai, aren't you going to have some?"
"Oh! Yeah sure." he grabbed his spoon before taking some and bit into it.
'How cute.' She thought before deciding to see how Rin was doing and took a look through the doll.
(With Rin)
"Are you sure Shirou's going to be fine?" She asked Taiga while Saber was busy practicing with a sword while Rider was sitting next to them.
"Of course."
"Really?"
"Not really, Shirou is a bit nervous around girls, even if he doesn't show it."
"So he could be babbling like a dope right now, right?"
"Possibly."
"Or he could be not babbling." Rider said. "It might turn out differently."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Well...let's just say she did some things during the last few days."
"What do you mean?"
Rider looked at the doll and gulped. "Um…..she took some self confidence classes and got some trash out." 'And other disturbing things!'
"That's it?"
"And for some reason, knitting and working at a restaurant called the Black Hand."
Saber stopped sparring and turned to her. "Wait isn't that the place Shirou went to?"
"It is and I think she rose up the ladder to manager." She lied while recalling she MADE the restaurant!
"Wait, when exactly did it open? I never heard about it till now."
"A week ago. I think Friday."
"Wait that's when the questionnaire was handed in class." Rin said in surprised. "And the last time I talked to her."
Rider gulped and stopped talking.
"Rider, is there something you're not telling us?"
"O-Of course not."
She raised an eyebrow as the doll glowed its eyes a little.
"You can tell us or you could just not have dinner." Taiga said.
She looked around while sweating a lot. "Um….I can't say."
"Rider."
"I can't! Sakura ordered me not to say anything!"
"And why would she not want you saying anything?"
"I can't say ok!" She said while getting up and walked away.
"Rider." Saber called out. "If you tell us I'll share my food with you tonight."
She stopped and turned before grabbing the doll and put it in the washing machine and pressed the wash button.
(With Sakura)
'Oh she's going to get it later.' She thought as they finished their meal. "So what did you think of our date?"
"Oh um it was nice." He admitted.
"I thought so too, especially with you senpai." She smiled while a waiter walked up to them.
"Your bill or should this be on the house boss?"
Her eye twitched while Shirou looked at the waiter confused.
"Huh? Boss?"
"Oh yes." He said before Sakura made a tentacle appear under her while causing it to fuse with the person. "I mean it's just a joke, silly me."
"Huh?" He said confused before the bill was placed on the table as he left them alone.
The shadow returned to Sakura's body as she frowned in her mind. 'This is the last time I let a Shadow Giant have sentience.'
"Sakura? What did he mean by that?"
"Nothing, nothing at all senpai." She smiled while paying the bill. "So want to try another date?"
"Well….sure, I did enjoy this." 'Even if it's all in my face.'
She smiled before leaning over and kissed him again as the girl's ran behind a bush in a panicked run. 'Perfect, nothing can ruin this day~'
"Are you sure you're correct about this?" Rin whispered while seeing Shirou breaking the kiss and saying goodbye to Sakura. "I mean about the stuff you said about her."
"Yes but hush." Rider said while seeing her master getting up and smiling.
"Can't wait for next time senpai." She said while the restaurant started to flicker along with the waiters before turning into black mud that flew back into her body. "And then I'll be with him forever and ever and ever~ He he he ahahahah AHAHAHA!"
The girls were shocked at this and dumbfounded as the screen went black along with red lines.
