The queen, in a moment of thought, realized that her daughter didn't have enough dress's for a lady. With that in mind, she decided to take a day out of her busy schedule to go shopping in the bowerstone market's, this just happened to coincide with Jasper and Shirou's trip into the market.

(Bowerstone Market - Jasper's perspective)

It was a surprise for Jasper when he spotted her royal highness travelling through the market with the princess, it did make for an amusing sight though.

While he listened to Shirou reading out the list that they needed to purchase for the Head Chef, he watched as the queen and princess went through several stall's and shop's. The amusing fact was that the queen had to drag Arturia away from several weapon and armour stall's, when she began to excitable ask the vendor's what the prices were for several item's. Some of these item's included full set's of armour, a broadsword three time's the girl's height, and a pair of gauntlets that would of just fit her father.

As Jasper watched the Queen get more red faced with each stall that she dragged her daughter away from, he came to term's with the fact that the queen would eventually blow her top and begin to rant at her daughter in open view of the public. Which would be quiet unsightly for a women of her stature. After quickly purchasing some of the needed item's on Shirou's list he made his way over to the queen

"Evening Madam," Jasper spoke to the queen, who calmed down thanks to the much needed distraction Jasper had just provided.

"Good evening to you as well Jasper," The Queen replied to him with a small smile. Her eye's glanced down at Shirou for a few second's before they returned to Jasper. "I see you brought the boy along, I have heard a lot of good thing's about him from the Head Chef".

A look of pride graced jasper's features as he heard the queen comment's on Shirou, who was currently chatting away with the Princess as they spoke. "Indeed Ma'am, some of the dish's that Shirou had thought of were quiet ingénues," Both the queen and Jasper discreetly licked there lip's at the thought of some of the food that Shirou had come up with. "In fact, we are currently in the market for the errand of gathering ingredients which he had been tasked with".

The queen raised one of her trimmed eyebrow's as she heard this, more than likely due to the fact that the boy had already been tasked with such an errand at his age. "The chef must really like the boy, to trust him with an errand at his current age," her word's just confirmed what Jasper had thought she was thinking.

As Jasper was about to reply he realized that the children were being a little too quiet. A glance around allowed him to spot the Princess dragging Shirou by the hand to a store, her eye's seemed to sparkle as she gazed at a giant lion plushie in the stores window.

A sigh came from behind him as he realized he had ignored the queen, as he turned back to her he saw the queen palming her face in irritation, steeling her features as she marched off towards her daughter.

(Bowerstone Market - Queen's perspective)

When the queen had planned this evening she had been hoping to see her daughter trying on several different dress's and leaving with her arm full of bag's containing several purchases, she should of really known better by know.

Instead of a mother-daughter-bonding session that she had wanted, she instead spent most of her time dragging her starry eyed tom-boy of a daughter away from weapon and armour stall's, almost all of which were designed for men. Some of the thing's she had requested the price of were over three times her size, the worse times was when she had requested to try some of the armour on. Her husband had completely corrupted her daughter.

Just as she was about to start ranting at her daughter about copying her father a voice startled her, "Evening Madam". A quick glance in the direction of the voice revealed no other than her families butler Jasper, who had several bag's of food ingredient's in his hand's by the look of it.

"Good evening to you as well Jasper," she replied after calming herself, thanking him mentally for the distraction from her daughter. She just noticed the boy that Jasper and Walter had been raising, walking past Jasper and towards her daughter from the corner of her eye. After looking in the boy's direction to see her daughter speaking cheerfully with the boy she returned to speaking with the Butler.

"I see you brought the boy along, I have heard a lot of good thing's about him from the Head Chef," which was true, the chef was always complimenting the boy and commenting on how he was a master chef in the making.

"Indeed Ma'am, some of the dish's that Shirou had thought of were quiet ingénues," Her butler spoke with a tone of pride, it seemed to be the same tone that the Chef and Walter spoke with when they were discussing his training or cooking. "In fact, we are currently in the market for the errand of gathering ingredients which he had been tasked with".

The queen raised one of her eyebrow's in amusement when she heard this, the task that was usually left for the Head chef himself had been tasked to the boy that said chef called a master chef in the making, by the look of Jasper's face he didn't realize the significance of such an action. She decided that she would leave him uninformed for the moment as she carefully worded her reply, "The chef must really like the boy, to trust him with an errand at his current age."

She had expected him to reply shortly after she had spoken, instead the butler had gained a look of confusion upon his face and was glancing around the market, he quickly stopped looking around and was openly staring at a direction. The queen decided to look to see what had caught the butler's attention.

As the saw the reason for the butler's action's she couldn't help but palm her face in irritation, her daughter was dragging the boy away by the hand with the same look she wore when she was looking at the weapon and armour stall's. With that in mind the queen steeled her features as she marched off towards her daughter to reprehend her for her current actions. By the sound of the hurried foot step's behind her the butler had decided to follow.

As she reached her daughter she swirled around with the look she, herself, used against her husband when she wanted to have her way in something. "Can I have that mother?," the girl questioned with watery eyes and a pout, the queen decided to humour the girl and looked towards the direction of whatever piece of armour that had caught the girls eye.

The Queen was startled when she saw what her daughter had wanted, instead of a full suit of armour like she had expected, she was pointing towards the biggest lion doll she had ever seen. Her steeled features softened slightly as she turned back to her daughter who was now clasping her hand's together to reinforce the look, the funny thing was that her daughter had yet to release her hold on Shirou's hand as she did this.

With a smile the queen spoke to her daughter, "If you behave, I'll get you the lion tomorrow." The queen couldn't help but giggle as her daughter started to jump in victory, pulling Shirou into her jump's by the hand as she did so. The chuckles that came from behind her showed that Jasper was reacting the same way she was to Shirou's situation.

(Bowerstone Market - Children's perspective)

Both of the Children had happily agreed to go to the market that day. Shirou had agreed because he wanted to be helpful, and helping the chef get his needed ingredients counted as helping.

Arturia had agreed since she would be able to see some of the latest weapons and armour that the black smith's had made, instead of the old set's that her father kept in his armoury.

Unfortunately, Jasper and the Queen did not make it easy for them to enjoy themselves. With the queen's insistence with Arturia not looking at the stall's she wanted to and Jasper only half listening to Shirou's instruction's the children were starting to become annoyed with the adult's they were travelling with. Fortunately, Jasper went to speak with the queen before their annoyance became too much.

"Evening Shirou," Arturia happily called as she spotted Shirou making his way towards her from behind Jasper.

"Evening Arturia," Shirou replied with a small smile on his face, stealthily putting the bag's he had been carrying with group Jasper had been as he made his way past. "The queen taking you shopping?," he remarked with a look of confusion, neither of them were carrying anything so they mustn't of bought anything yet if they were.

"Yep," was Arturia's cheerful reply, before she began to sulk slightly. "Mother won't let me buy any armour though."

Shirou had to hold in a few chuckles at that, he already knew that the queen hated the fact that her daughter was more like her father than herself, so her agreeing to let Arturia buy anything like armour would be a miracle in itself.

"Why are you here anyway Shirou?," Arturia questioned after getting over her brief mood of sulking. "You wouldn't happen to be getting stuff to cook with would you?"

Shirou was slightly nervous with that question, he almost regretted informing Arturia that he was the one that came up with the new dish's that the chef had been cooking for them. She had announced her self his personal food taster, and ever since she had come into the kitchen and ate some of the food that he had helped make before they served them to her family. The annoying thing about this was Walter, he kept saying he would make a good wife ever since he found him feeding Arturia one of his dish's, and laughing like mad right after.

A diversion would be a good idea at this point. "Why don't we have a look at the stall's while Jasper is talking to the queen?"

Arturia happily agreed, completely forgetting her last question as she did so.

And so the two looked through the stall's in the market, talking about how different weapon's and armour would work with their fighting styles and what could be used to make a good food dish, which happened to be more Shirou talking to himself with Arturia eagerly listening on.

It was while Shirou was looking at the apples in a fruit stall that Arturia grabbed Shirou's hand and began to drag him towards a direction. It was only when they had stopped that he was able to see the expression on Arturia's face and the item she was directing it to.

The expression was the same one she wore whenever he told her that he had a new idea he wanted to try out in cooking, and the fact that she had that look directed at a stuffed lion doll worried him.

As footsteps were heard coming behind them Arturia spun around, pulling Shirou with her as she directed the puppy eye's towards her mother.

Shirou thanked his lucky star's that he hadn't been the intended victim of that technique, unknowingly sharing the same thought's as Jasper as he did so.

"Can I have that mother?" Arturia questioned as she pointed her free hand towards the lion doll, she clasped her hand's together and tilted her head slightly as her mother looked towards the window containing the lion doll. Completely forgetting that one of her hand's was still gripping Shirou's and thus he had been pulled into the look with her. Unknowingly ruining the effect the look would have had on her mother otherwise.

"If you behave, I'll get you the lion tomorrow." The queen smiled as she told Arturia, who in turn stated to jump in joy, accidentally forcing Shirou to jump along with her.

(Bowerstone Market - Shirou's perspective)

Once Arturia had calmed down she let of his hand, a slight blush on her face as she did so.

Shortly after they split up, Jasper and Shirou going to collect the last few item's on his list, while the queen and Arturia heading towards the clothes shop's, much to Arturia's dissatisfaction.

It wasn't much later that the town crier announced the time to the public, startling Jasper as they looked for the last item they needed from the list. "Shirou, would you be fine getting the last item on the list while I go to the castle to attend to my duties?"

Shirou, knowing full well that Jasper took his job extremely seriously, knew that he had to be punctual for all his appointment's. "I'll be fine Jasper, it's only a fresh loaf of bread that I need to get after all," He replied to Jasper with a smile, which was returned with a look of gratitude.

Jasper quickly handed the amount of money Shirou would need for the bread before he grabbed the rest of the bag's and ran off towards the castle. As Shirou headed towards the correct store a large bang could be heard from inside. A young girl, younger than himself, ran out of the store covered in flour while carrying two loaf's of bread.

"Oh help~ A big nasty man is trying to steal my bread~" The girl sang as she ran in the direction of one of the ally's, a large man wearing an apron and carrying a rolling pin in one hand came charging out after her. Shirou, completely missing the large grin on the girl's face, as well as the fact that she sang that sentence out, tripped the man and ran after her himself. A loud thud echoing behind him as he did so.

It didn't take him long to catch up to the girl, she seemed to be waiting expectably for him. It was as he walked up to the younger girl that he was able to take a proper look at her.

What he had originally thought of as flour was actually her real hair colour. Her hair was a bright white that reminded him of some of the silk gown's he had seen the queen wear, red ruby eyes gleamed in his direction against her pale skin. Overall she would of looked like a fairy from one of the book's from the castle's library if it wasn't for the patched rag's she was currently wearing.

While this may of shocked him for a few second's, his original worries came back to him as he approached her. "The man didn't hurt you did he?" Shirou spoke with worry evidently in his voice.

The girl looked shocked at the question for a few second's, before a burst of giggles left her mouth. The gleam in her eye's seemed to increase as she answered him, "He didn't hurt me thanks to you!" A large grin appeared on her face by the time she finished.

Shirou smiled back in turn, missing the gleam in her eyes as he did so. "It's good to know that your not hurt," he replied back simply. Again surprising the girl with the sincerity he answered with.

A ring of a bell sounded through the area, the town crier announced to the public that it was time for the shop's to close. Leaving a gaping Shirou behind.

"Something wrong?" The girl in front of him questioned, curiosity leaking through her voice as she spoke.

With a sign Shirou turned to the girl to answer her. "I was meant to get a loaf of fresh bread for the head chef in the castle, I can't buy any with the store now closed."

The girl put her finger on her chin in thought for a few second's before smiling and handing one of the loaf's of bread she had to him. "As a thank you for helping me."

Shirou in turn, gave the girl the money he had for the bread without a second of hesitation. The confusion on her face brought a smile to his own, "The money for the bread." He replied simple, getting a look of recognition as he did so.

As he turned to leave he felt a tug on his shirt and turned to see the girl smiling again while holding his shirt. "My names Ilya, lets be friends!" The girl announced, the gleam returning to here eyes as she did so.

"That's fine with me, the names Shirou," as Shirou replied honestly he received a hug from the now giggling girl before she ran further into the ally and out of sight.

A slightly confused Shirou left the ally and made his way to the castle, meeting up with the queen and Arturia on the way back. She giddily informed him on how she was good and would get her lion the next day.

However, the queen would not awaken from her slumber that night.

Extra: The self proclaimed sister meet's the mini me's

Once Gilgamesh had been removed from the building, Teen Shirou and Saber had headed towards the room they had put Sakura to check up on her. This left Child Shirou and Arturia as the only people in the living room.

"Brother~, Ilya's came to play!" Well, not anymore that is.

A white haired girl with red eyes came charging in wearing a purple jacket and a purple hat.

The girl screeched to a halt when she spotted the mini version's of her brother and Saber before her. "Who are you two?" The girl questioned with a tilt of her head.

Arturia was the first to respond. "My name is Arturia Pendragon, the boy next to me is". Before she could answer, Child Shirou asked a question with a look of confusion on his face.

"Ilya, why do you look bigger?" This question stopped Arturia in her track's since she had never met the girl before, yet Shirou seemed to know her.

"Shirou?" The white haired girl asked with a look of wonder on her face.

"Yes?" Shirou replied with even more confusion.

One second Child Shirou had been sitting on the ground, the next he was hoisted up into a bone crushing hug by Ilya.

"Call me Big Sis," Ilya tells the Child Shirou as she crushes him in a hug.

"W-what?" Child Shirou managed to say from the brief amount of air he could get in. Arturia just looked on with shock, not sure what she was meant to do in this situation.

"I said, call me Big Sis~," Ilya demanded with a giggle while crushing Child Shirou even harder.

"Big Sis?" Child Shirou just managed to say before he fell unconscious from lack of air.

Ilya instantly loosed her hug so that Child Shirou could breath and began to spin in glee.

That was the scene that Teen Shirou and Saber returned to, a unconscious mini Shirou being spun around rapidly by Ilya who kept repeating that she's a big sister, while Arturia sat on the floor with a look of complete confusion.
