chapter 5 of master of the black knight

"Talk"

"Saber talking "

The moment Shirou made to step through the school gates, there was a horrible pain constricting his heart. It was as though something had reached inside him and was trying to squeeze everything inside him the stench of blood invaded his nostrils.

Then the feeling passed as he took in deep breaths and tried to calm his breathing.

"You noticed it" Saber said Shirou looked up at him. It was impossible to see his expression but if he had to guess he was frowning. Shirou took a minute to recall a memory before he remembered what that feeling was

"A bounded field," he muttered out.

"Yes" he said, "and a dangerous one as well if your reaction is to go by."

Shirou clenched his fist as he thought about what would happen if a normal student had been hit by that. He didn't want to continue that thought as he thought of whom and why someone would put up a bound field here at his school.

"You realize what this means?" he asked "There's a Master on campus, and by the way this thing acts, it's a nasty piece of work."

"It sucks the life out of people" Shirou concluded as he connected the dots on his flash of pain entering brought on.

Saber nodded "Yes, everyone on campus will be broken down into Mana when it's activated food for this Master's Servant, no doubt. "We've encountered one of the more twisted Masters in this war" Saber said with anger

"So then," Shirou began as he stood straight, "what are we going to do about it?"

Saber shock his head. "We'll talk about it later, during lunch. Meet me up there. In the mean time I will portal the surrounding areas" Saber said as he ran off

Shirou watched Saber move then headed to class before he was counted late.

Lunch rolled around quickly. The morning seemed to pass too quickly and he soon found himself on the roof alone with lunch in hand. He sat down and began to eat as he waited for Saber to return. As he ate he tried to think of what to do about the connection between him and Saber

'What can I do? I don't know how to activate circuits. I didn't even know I had any until now.' Shirou let his head fall in his depression but then muttered "Maybe Saber knows"

"Know what master?" Saber asked as he perched on a bar on the building. Shirou jumped and turned trying to calm his heart. "Don't scare me like that Saber!" he said as Saber nodded

"Apologies master. But during my patrol I had a close encounter with the red archer" Saber said as Shirou's eyes widened and asked "What happened?"

"It seems that Archer and his master had found the master of the Rider servant and it is she who put up this bound field. The master was called Shinji." Saber finished.

Shirou clenched his teeth at Shinji's name. He had known that Shinji had problems but was willing to look past them but it seems Shinji was willing to kill innocents to power up his servant. That was it, Shinji must be taken down before he could kill. He turned to his servant and commanded

"Where is he" Shirou commanded

Saber's eyes widened as he heard the strong commanding tone in his voice.

'Just like hers. . . 'He then mentally shook his head and cleared it. He replied

"Not too far master we can leave now if you wish." Shirou nodded as Saber materialized, grabbed Shirou and jumped off the roof to a nearby building. But unnoticed by the pair they had a person listening in.

'Seems that Emiya is still following his foolish ideals. Seems I will need to step up my plan' Archer thought as he ran back to Rin
