Short summary:
Shirou Emya was getting used to odd things happening around him... But getting send to another world after trying to help Rin with her Magecraft was pushing it a bit... At least this world will allow him to live his dream of being a Hero...


Shirou groaned. His body, his head, his everything hurt, even with Avalon working its magic inside him.

After a minute or so he felt good enough to open his eyes and look around.

The red-haired boy was lying on his back in some back alley. Which was odd, considering the fact that the last thing he remembered was being deep underground, in Rin's Workshop under the Clock Tower in London. He had been helping her with an experiment that aimed to recreate the Second true Magic when something went wrong and the world just exploded...

Wait... He couldn't have been blown out of the Clock Tower... Right?

Nah, he shook his head. That only happened in animes, and he stopped watching those years ago. Shaking his head once again to clear it the Magus stood up and dusted his clothes off. He had to return back to the Clock Tower, or Rin would get angry...

And an angry Rin meant a lot of Gandr curses shot at him.

Stepping out of the alley Shirou looked around, trying to orient himself. The street signs were all unfamiliar... And what was with the strange shop names? Dust and Guns?

Oh well, he was just going to ask for directions...


He should have known...

The signs were all there - from the cleaner air to the strange names of the streets and shops, to the strange attire of the people walking around... He should have known that the boy walking around with dog ears wasn't cosplaying...

What made Shirou realize it, however, was the moon.

The broken moon.

And to think that he spent all day asking people for directions to Big Ben... No wonder they looked at him like that. He was in another world...

Rigt now the boy was recovering from his brief panic attack in an alley similar to the one he woke up in. He needed to calm down, he needed to think, he needed to make a plan for what to do...

First thing he needed was information... He had to know where he was exactly. He needed to find out if Magi existed here and if they could (or would) help him return to his own world.

Shirou's stomach grumbled, making him reorganize his priorities. First he needed some food... And for that he needed money. But where could he find that?

"Well, would ya look at that, boys?" A voice drew the boy's attention to the side. Four thugs were standing there, holding baseball bats in their hands.

"Looks like we 'ave another catch 'ere." The same thug continued as they advanced on what they presumed was a helpless target.

"That's what? The fourth one tonight?" Another chimed in. "Must be our lucky night."

Shirou suppressed a grin as he stood up. Beating these thugs and taking their money was going to be easy, and he wasn't going to feel particularly guilty for them.

"Trace on." He muttered the trigger for his Magecraft. A shape took form in his hand and his fingers closed around the familiar handle of his adoptive sister's weapon of choice.

Tonight the bloodlust of Tora-Shinai, Fujimura Taiga's cursed shinai was sated...


Shirou whistled as he flipped the frying vegetables with a single, well-practiced motion.

It was three months since he arrived in this world. After a couple of weeks of mugging the criminal elements of Vale and sleeping on benches he had decided to get a job.

Easier said than done, considering that legally, he didn't exist in this world.

And thus he had to look for a job in a place with less than stellar reputation.

Thankfully, he managed to find one that paid just enough for him to rent a room in a rundown building. And the job itself was something he enjoyed - cooking.

Of course, he did more than just cook. He used his free time to get to know this world better. Strangely enough, it was similar to his own.

They even had their own version of Magecraft!

Though they called it Aura and Semblance, and it worked on slightly different principles. For instance, Shirou had yet to find anything that resembled the Magic Circuits he had. Still, it was something that he could easily use as an excuse for his Reinforcement, Tracing and Avalon's healing...

"Hey, cook!" A voice drew Shirou's attention to the kitchen's entrance where his boss, a short and fat man who was easier to jump over than go around, was calling.

"One of the customers wants to thank you in person." The man continued.

"Tell him I'll come as soon as I finish with these vegetables. I need to make sure they don't burn." Shirou replied and returned to watching his craft.

The man knew better than to object. He had learned that his new cook took cooking seriously... Very seriously. And he had gotten more customers ever since the red-haired boy started working for him.

A few minutes later Shirou decided that he could leave the vegetables to stew without any trouble. Wiping his hands off with a towel he took note of the time before walking out of the kitchen.

"Where's the customer?" He asked his boss.

"Over there, in the corner." The man nodded to one of the more secluded booths.

There were two men in there, though one of them stood up and left before he could get a better look at him. The second one, however remained behind...

"I heard that you wanted to compliment me in person?" Shirou asked the man, taking a good look at him. Tall, with short black hair and beard with moustache, he looked quite imposing. The attire consisting of a dress shirt with a red tie over it, black vest and dress pants, only completed the image.

"Yeah." The man replied in a gruff voice. "If you're the cook, kid. That was the best food I've eaten in years."

"Thank you, sir." Shirou smiled and bowed to the man.

"Don't sweat it, kid." The man waved a black-gloved hand. "I'm gonna ask you for another plate of those vegetables for me and my friend when he returns from the bathroom."

"I'll do my best." Shirou turned around and froze. The man who had left the booth just seconds before he had arrived was now standing a few meters away, pointing a gun at the other guy.

The red-haired boy didn't think, he just reacted as he jumped in front of the man's target. There was a flash of pain as the bullet pierced his shoulder, the force sending him crashing in the table.

He could hear the burly man swear as he pulled something from under his vest. There were screams, gunfire and explosions...

Half an hour later had Shirou sitting on an ambulance's back step, having his wound treated. A partly destroyed and still smouldering restaurant was behind him and the man he saved was looking apologetically.

"Sorry for the mess, kid."

"It's okay." Shirou waved the apology off. The man who tried to kill his client had put up a fight before he got knocked out. Unfortunately, by that time the restaurant had suffered extensive damage...

It looked like Shirou was jobless again. Oh well... He could find another one, however hard it would be.

"I might have a job for you, kid." The man seemed to have read his thoughts... Or he had seen his downcast expression. "You as good with drinks as you are with food?"

"No idea. I haven't tried..." Though he was sure that with his reflexes and skill he could mix drinks... If that was what the man was implying, of course.

"Well, I find myself in need of a bartender for my club. The pay's better than this dump, and the uniform's free as well." He looked down at Shirou. "What do you say, kid? I normally wouldn't offer a job to a stranger, but you saved my life over there."

Shirou thought for a few moments. He doubted that anyone would hire him, and getting a job as a bartender didn't sound bad...

"Deal." Shirou said and the man grinned.

"My name is Xei Xiong, but you can call me Junior." The tall man said with a smile before clapping Shirou on the uninjured shoulder. "Welcome to the family, kid."


Basically this will have Shirou becoming a bartender in Junior's club prior to the Yellow trailer. Unfortunately I haven't thought much further...

There are many ways this can go. Most include Shirou working against Torchwick, following his dream to be a Hunter. I also thought about pairings... It could go like gabriel blessing's In Flight and just give Shirou all the girls, or I can make him still in love with Saber, like in gb's Hill of Swords. Still, that's a bridge that I'll cross when I get to it.

As for those of you who are still waiting for me to update Dust and Psionics, have patience. Writer's Block, university, work and tough chapter that I'm rewriting for the fourth time are causing a delay...

If you have any ideas for similar crossovers and one-shots then send them to me, I'll take good care of them.
