Garden of Fate: Angin

The first thing that registered in Shirou's head was a massive headache and something poking his cheek, he grunted, did he fell asleep? He opened his eyes slowly, everything was blur until he blinked couple of times and could finally see with much more clarity. In front of him, a color of pink striked his vision, he was surprised a little bit until he could ultimately see what or who exactly was in front of him, the color belonging to his junior of course, who else would have that striking borderline eccentric other than her, though it's strange enough that it's actually a natural color of her hair, she is wearing a red unzipped short leather jacket with long sleeves, white sweater with a loose collar, and a short black skirt with knee length socks under brown boots. She sat in the squat position; resting her jaw on her left hand while her other hand are touching his cheek with her index finger.

She was looking at him with large eyes, poking his cheek over and over wishing to wake him up. When Shirou Emiya finally opened his eyes, she stopped while still looking at him with curious face.

"Senpai, you finally woke up. Are you feeling alright?" ask the pinkette.

"...Uh, Ryougi-san? W-what are you doing here?"

"I could ask the same question, plus, why are you sleeping here?" the pinkette tilted her head to the side, "It's dark already, did you got kicked from your house? Or run away from home? wait never mind, being a rebel like that doesn't sound like you at all"

She grinned jokingly, but then her grin flushed away shortly after her senpai didn't answer her and keet staring at her with wide eyes. Sakura then closed her mouth with both of her hands showing that she was actually shocked.

"Wait... you do? Oh my gosh I'm sorry I never thought that's the ca-"

"W-wait no-no that's not it sorry, just uh... having delay... er, anyway I was asked by Issei to fix the broken computers at the lab, seems like I got carried away and fell asleep." said Shirou nervously, he gave an apologetic smile for spacing out in front of her suddenly like that.

"Aaah I see, well you should go back home now Emiya-senpai, it's getting dark already and you can continue fix those computers again tomorrow." Sakura said clapping her hands and giving her smile to him.

"Yeah, how about you, why are you here?" Shirou asked while getting up from the floor. Sakura had followed and stood up.

"I was getting a book that I forgot to bring back home, and I found you here sound asleep." said Sakura while putting her hand on her hip. Shirou just nodef understanding.

"Alright then let's get your book and go back home."

"Eh? But our houses are in opposite direction." Said Sakura dumbfounded by his words while giving him a surprised and questioning look.

"I-I mean I will walk you home, after all it's dangerous for a girl to walk alone at night." Shirou said scratching his head awkwardly. Sakura looking at him in disbelief, Shirou doesn't know why she gave him that surprise look, made him confused and start to worry if he had said anything wrong, but to his surprise Sakura started laughing.

"Ahahaha, oh geez how very Emiya-senpai, 'The Kind Man', your nickname really comes with a reasonable judgement" Sakura said. Shirou, feeling embarrassed, looked away while sweating a bullet. Why do people like to tease him,and laugh at him, saying as if being polite and little bit kind is so weird and joking on how he is a saint wannabe? Is the world really starting to age that bad even high schoolers like them become so cynical? He was lost in his own thoughts. Sakura noticed the confused and uncomfortable face, then she give a fist covered cough and stopped laughing.

"Sorry, I just feel... relieved in someway."

Shirou looks at her a little bit surprised on her comment that he didn't understand what she meant by that, "What do you mean relieved?"

"I just feel relieved that someone like you actually exists. Kindness is quite rare as time goes by you know, adopting such an apathetic social preference or end up having a superior-complex like that Shinji, so I am just glad that senpai actually still has this rare attitude, so I feel relieved that someone actually still has that 'I care about people' mindset..." Sakura then crossed her arms and gave a wide grin.

"...I guess that's also a reason why I like you."

At that moment, Shirou could feel the heat rising upon his face, turning as red as a tomato, he couldn't believe what he just heard, did Sakura just confess to him? He never knew she had those kind of feelings towards him. Shirou felt so embarrassed and hid his face.

"W-what are you saying Ryougi-san!"

"Eh?" Sakura was dumbfounded by his reaction at first. It's a good thing that she is not dense like Naruto so she caught up on what Shirou meant and she blushed, "Waaait Senpai! That's not it, I mean as a friend, as a friend! As a junior I respect you."

"Ah right..." Shirou then looked down feeling embarrassed that he was just thinking way too far, but when he relaxed they ended up laughing at it together.

"Never change senpai... Oh by the way, you don't have to walk me home, I'm with my cousin, but I really appreciate your good intention" Sakura said while waving her hand, "Be safe on your way home, bye bye senpai."

And with that Sakura left and went up stairs. Shirou waved to her back and decided to go home, but his head started to sting as he recalled his nightmare just now; it was such a weird dream to have at school. He started to think that maybe the school is actually haunted and him sleeping there annoyed some ghost. He shivered and decided he didn't want to dwell anymore on it, and so he jogged his way to the front gate and started walking from there.

On the other hand, Sakura was looking at him through the window from the third floor until he finally couldn't be seen from where she stood anymore. She let out a long sigh.

"Alright it's finally safe, Tohsaka-senpai." said Sakura turning her body and glanced at the stairs behind her, seeing Rin Tohsaka standing there looking at her with a suspicious look.

"Color me surprise, I would never have thought you would be participating, of all people..." said Rin judging Sakura still staring at her with a firm look, Sakura on the other hand just gave her a weak smile.

"Hurry up and after them Archer!" said Tohsaka panicking, she had no idea what to do, she can't break the rule as well but the image of letting one of the students die for the sake of secrecy and knowing that tomorrow she would have to pretend like nothing happened when she wakes up in the morning would never sit well for her.

Archer picked her up and leapt to the building but he saw something from the corner of his eyes, it caught him by surprise. As he was still not that far from the ground, he, without hesitation, let Rin go and summoned Byakuya and threw it straight to the 3rd floor smashing one of its windows. Rin, who is not being held by Archer anymore, is falling, surprised and shocked on the stunt he just did, she scream panicked that she was falling from 2 stories height.

"ARCHER YOU DOLT!" Rin kept falling and Archer just rolled his eyes, he was about to catch his master and carry her back, however a flash of pink caught Rin first as she let out a yelp.

Rin was now being held by Sakura, her legs and her back being lifted by her small arms as if she weighed nothing, the pinkette looked at the dumbfounded Rin with concern. Archer was taken aback a little bit but he saw it clearly and feeling there was no need to save his master from any danger, he decided to keep on going inside the building.

"Are you alright senpai?"

"Eh...? Ryougi?" she, still surprised, stared at her for a brief moment. Sakura just smiled when her current last name was mentioned, "W-wait, what are you doing here? Also did you just catch me in middle of the air?"

"Well seems like you're alright, we should go before Lancer kills someone." Sakura was about to jump to the school building still carrying her senpai on her hands but Rin decide to pull her hair making her stop in her tracks as she winced from it, "Ahn! Senpai, what the heck was that for?!"

"Hold the freak down, Sakura Ryougi! You are a magus?! And you know Lancer so you are participating in this Holy Grail War?!"

"Blimey Sherlock, do you really need to ask that now?!" Sakura rolled her eyes and decided to keep advancing and jumped straight to the third floor from the school yard. Rin tightened her grip to the pinkette now flung straight towards the wall.

"YOU IDIOT! WE ARE GONNA CRASH!" Rin scared. She was about to close her eyes expecting to kiss a wall and prepare for the pain, but her expectations were wrong as Sakura suddenly shifted her body so her feet met the wall first. While Rin was still being held firmly in her arms, Sakura let her body absorb the impact smoothly by folding her legs and then standing horizontally by sticking her feet to the wall as if gravity didn't have any effect to her at all except her hair and her clothes. She looked at Rin who just taken by surprise.

"No we won't" Sakura said and then got inside through the broken window glass that Archer just left. She put Rin back to her feet, and what Rin found is her servant are now facing someone, a guy she saw before, he's that guy who was with Sakura Ryougi this afternoon, the one that Mitsuzuri said was her relative. Rin eyed them both switching every second from archer to the blonde man, Archer's face seemed serious and sharp, glaring at the man in front of him. The man gave the same treatment if not even more feral as he gritted his teeth which happens to have larger canines compared to the average human while glaring daggers at him.

"This guy is a servant," said Archer.

Rin glanced at Sakura, who had a straight face, and then back at the blonde man known as a servant, 'He must be hers then'.

"Get out of the way!" Naruto started to get impatient and move forward but Archer ended up steadying his stance ready to strike, "I don't have any damn business with you right now!"

Archer seemed even more agitated by this and this made Tohsaka confused. Sakura, on the other hand, starts glancing between Rin and her servant, but Archer finally let his weapon down. Without wasting any time, Naruto started to run and Sakura following behind running through the hallway, but it was too late.

Laying before them is one of the students, someone they actually know, and in fact they are Sakura's friend. It was Shirou Emiya, dying on the floor with blood flowing like a waterfall from a hole in his chest, flooding the cold tiles beneath. Rin Tohsaka and Archer who followed up saw him too with Rin covering her mouth in shock, staring in disbelief.

"...No way, of all people... why does it have to be you." Rin said under her breath.

"Damn it!" Naruto said angrily, making Archer look at him with a stern look. Sakura, on the other hand, panicked kneeling and checking Shirou right away. Tears started to form a little bit in the corner of her eyes which kept moving frantically almost desperately looking for any single sign that the boy's brain was still active even though his heart is crushed.

"C'mon, don't die on me yet!" Sakura said as her voice raised feel angry as well, but then that's when she saw it, Shirou's eyes moved a little bit, Sakura felt relieved and in that instant her hand started to glow in a green-ish light, hovering over his chest.

"We can save him! We can save him! Thank god!" Sakura said in tears, Naruto had also given the same look as he then fell on the ground with her but had started to groan.

"That was close..." said Naruto.

Archer look at both of them in disbelief, almost shocked by the look of the two people, in front of him, had just made, "Were the both of you really that worried and concerned about him? He is a witness and it's normal for him to get eliminated."

"What the bloody hell you say?!" yelled Naruto, angered by Archer's question, he stood up and started to face him, he gave a low growl because of anger. But Archer didn't waver, in fact his face looked at them with disgust.

"You heard me, it's the rule for not letting this war be known by civilians, and Lancer's action is logical."

"I don't give a damn about your rules!" they scream in unison making Rin and Archer step back in shock as the two people in front of them snapped. Naruto and Sakura then talk in turns.

"If this rule devaluing humans life..."

"Treating them as if it was something that can be taken away this lightly then screw it.."

"We don't care whoever made this rule and whoever obeys this rule with their life."

"We won't let anyone die a meaningless death!"

Sakura then started to feel the strain from her task as she was reconstructing the heart and the bones, fixing the wound Lancer managed to make with his spear leaving a glaring hole in Shirou's chest. Her chakra pool had regressed along with her age when she arrived in this world and now doing surgery in this delicate and this fatal state was really starting take all of her reserve. She sweating and breathing heavily. Sakura was beginning to feel a pain in her body as it started to feel like it was burning from the inside. She winced pain and moaned as she really couldn't bring her chakra out any longer and she started to risk her servant as well but thankfully Naruto have quite high rank in prana making sure he won't easily be gone or die just because his master couldn't provide him with more prana, so she decide to give it all her might.

"I'm almost at my limit..." she grunted. Rin can see and feel it, Sakura's magic circuits, its weirded her out in a way that Sakura's magic circuits feels strange, alien, but normal at the same time, it's like her whole body starts to feel like it's made of magic circuits, circulating all around her with such potent magic, but the glow on her hands start to simmer down and the wound still there, though it's fascinating to see how the muscle tissue start to move as if it's alive reconstruct their former shape slowly, but it's getting slower and slower as Sakura's face start to grow pale.

Rin decides to take one of her gems that contained the most prana, a large ruby gem, and lay it at the top of Sakura's hands. As soon as she put it there, Sakura could feel a huge energy entering her, feeling the surge of chakra boost, her healing then continued with a faster pace and finally the wound had been completely healed as if it had never been there, not even single scar left. Tohsaka was impressed.

"Aaah... I... I'm tired..." Sakura fell on her back almost limp and now breathing hard, Naruto then kneeled beside her right away concerned as her face grew pale. He touched her cheek and could feel the intense heat from having almost drained every single drop of her chakra. He then fixed her hair and wiped the sweat from her face.

"You managed to save him." said Naruto after he eyed the boy and saw that he was breathing naturally though he fell unconscious midway, he then grinned "Awesome job Sakura-chan!"

Sakura, still panting heavily, managed to cast a small, but tired smile as she breathed with her chest going up and down erratically try to suck as much oxygen as she could, she raised both of her hands into fiss, and grinned, "Whoo! We did it, I'm so glad."

But then her hands fell again tiredly, Rin and Archer just stared at them. Rin managed to have crept a smile as well while Archer kept his stern look.

'What a bothersome duo' they mused.

Despite the worries Rin has of what will come after this, she also shares the jubilant feeling of Sakura and Naruto though not openly expressing it like the other two, but just for a short time, she still has things to worry, like she is in fact standing near her 'enemy', though quite unexpected enemy, she never knew that the Ryougi family is actually a magus family, for the stunt she manage to pull off alone with only her prana resources, it means she is pretty powerful and has huge amounts of energy being very potent. It's considered at least with the same caliber as Einzbern's or Aozaki's, with that much talent they should be renowned in the magus society and clocktower, but she never heard any magus from Ryougi family, and the family were never known as magus family as well.

"Alright... hahn.. let's find Emiya-senpai's bag and put him near it before he wakes up, we can make him believe this never happened or something, I will pretend that he fell asleep at class" said Sakura breaking Rin from her thoughts. Naruto pulled Sakura up and patting her back.

"I saw a lone bag at the second floor near the computer lab from the school yard before." said Archer.

"Oooh as expected from an Archer class servant, your eyes are amazing." Sakura complimented, "Well then..."

"You're really naive Ryougi..." said Rin with an intimidating look by looking down at her from the stairs. Her arms crossed and Archer standing beside her in astral form.

"Ouch, you wound me senpai." Sakura said while pouting to her jokingly, her face still quite pale, restoring a huge hole in someone's chest back to its former state including recreating all the blood loss he already had as if nothing happened was exhausting. She leaned back to the window behind her try to mask her weak leg that was actually already wobbly, Naruto just showed up and stood beside her, being ready to protect her if Rin and Archer decided to attack them.

Rin knew how paler her face is right now and it wasn't getting any better soon. she knew this was a perfect opportunity to fight her and have an easy win. They end up staring at each other, their eyes sharp, waiting for someone to engage, Sakura wishes Rin would at least let them go for now, she can't risk herself becoming a burden for Naruto to protect her while also fighting them back.

"Let's have a truce for now, Archer already wasted too much prana to fight lancer, this dolt is so pretentious using swords to fight even though he is a servant of bow, annoying." said Rin with arrogance, she lied, and Sakura knew, Archer is still able to go 2 more fights, but Rin probably said that just for the sake of chivalry so she won't be stepping too hard on her junior's pride.

Sakura gave a weak smile, Rin may be cold sometimes, judging from their friendship since Sakura enrolled in this school, but she is actually really kind, just not that good at expressing it.

"Is this what they call Tsundere? I'm intrigued" Sakura joked while closing her eyes and chuckle a little bit.

"Don't make me change my mind Ryougi, even if Archer's state now are still ti-"

"Thanks..." Sakura cut her off with her weak voice, Rin then just looked at Sakura, she was looking down hiding her face as she said that word, Rin decided to walk to her but stopped in her tracks when she turned to see Sakura's servant glare at her.

"We are leaving now, till next time." said Naruto start to move from where he stood and put his hand on Sakura's shoulder.

"Wait I need to t-"

"We are leaving." Naruto cut Rin's words and it was starting to irritate her.

"Can you wait for a moment and let me talk to your master a little bit more?!" Rin said angrily not taking Naruto's treatment well, however she then decided to shut up when Naruto showed that Sakura had actually already fainted. Having fallen limp, leaning to Naruto's broad muscular body; she's unconscious. As if that's not enough, Naruto decided to guilt trip Rin by lifting Sakura's face so she could see her clearly. There was no longer any rosy pink color on her parting lips replaced with a pale white color like her face. Her cheeks had lose its color as well; for a moment, she really looked like a corpse who died a peaceful death. Rin closed her eyes and started to bite her lips. She really should shut up for now.

"To be blunt, I really don't like your servant, but I hope we can have fair fight in future, goodbye." and with that they gone in a flash of yellow.

Rin blinked couple of time, and Archer materialized right beside her, his face had shown that he was really annoyed, borderline angry "Let's go, we should look for lancer."

Sakura had woken up in Naruto's hands. He was carrying her with both of his hands like a bride while jumping from one building to another, a cold wind hitting her face but her body was feeling warm. She looked down and found herself being wrapped with a familiar beige winter coat, a standard Konoha's winter coat.

"You're awake Sakura-chan?" Naruto looked down to the person he was carrying. He then looked for one of the tallest buildings nearby and scaled it so they could stop without worrying if someone could spot them. Naruto was about to put Sakura down but the sudden grip on his shoulder was all he need to know what the girl in his arms wanted, and he happily obliged. Naruto then sat at the ledge of building resting Sakura's lower body on his lap so it won't keep hanging in the air. His hand shifted her body so she would lean to his shoulder while holding up her back

"Is it cold? Want to go back home now? You must be really tired we should call it a day." asked Naruto but Sakura just shook her head slowly and snuggled closer to him trying rest her head in better position.

"Why?" Naruto now looked at her with frown.

"We still need to find Lancer..."

"But why? I mean this war won't end in one night anyway right?"

Sakura giggled and open her eyes. She looked at Naruto who had been looking at her the entire time with a worried look, "He doesn't know that Emiya-senpai is no longer involved with this war, so we must tell him or he will probably hunt him down again as long as the moon is still high up."

"Oooh right... he probably won't hunt him down right away right? Lancer doesn't even know that the kid actually survived, what's more important right now is your condition, and you young lady just crossed the line, you were already pushing yourself too far like that." for the first time Sakura been scolded about health by him, the one she always scold and nursed for almost all the time in the past 16 years, how the tables has turned in this strange world, she wasquite amused by it.

"Naruto..."

"Yeah?"

"I'm hungry..." said Sakura while pulling Naruto's winter coat closer to her.

"Sure then... what do you want? There's still a lot of restaurants and food stalls open tonight."

"Ramen is just fine."

"Aaah that was satisfying!" Sakura could feel her energy finally replenished. She just ate a big bowl of miso ramen. Sakura stretched herself and is now slumped on her chair with a wide smile, Naruto who sat across from her also grinned seeing her spirit back, "Yummy!"

"You sound like me just now" Naruto chuckles, and Sakura just sticks out her tongue. Sakura then took out a pill from her pockets and swallow it with cold water, this picked Naruto's interest and was looking at her with curiosity.

"What's that Sakura-chan?"

"Soldier pill" said Sakura nonchalantly, Naruto gives an 'Oh' look but then Sakura beamed up with excited eyes, "I made it by myself you know! Even better than the pill Konoha sells, this one doesn't have a single side effect!"

"That's awesome Sakura-chan! Can I try it?"

"Eeeh I don't think you should, I consume it because I'm extremely low chakra right now. If You take it, there is a chance you will get overdosed; you have ridiculous amounts chakra anyway." said Sakura leaning back and sitting on her chair again with a bored look.

"Ah, alright then " Naruto said with disappointed look but then grinned again heartily at her, and Sakura giggled because he called her doctor.

"So Naruto, about this Grail, do you have any wish for yourself?" ask Sakura to Naruto, he was surprised a little bit but managed to mask it.

"Hmm I don't know, I'm more curious about your wish though, you never exactly told me what you want."

"I want to go home, finish our job and finally win a war, that's what makes me do all of this in the first place, for the past 10 years I've been training and adapting just for this moment, I miss our friends back at home, Ino-pig, Lady Tsunade, Kakashi-sensei... Sasuke..." Sakura pauses for a moment and Naruto stays silent listening to her.

"...I miss everything, I miss when we would eat together at Ichiraku every week, that silly Teuchi old man and his daughter Ayame, I miss Konoha, the woods... and this is definitely gonna sound weird and I might regret it, but I really missed everything;I even miss Tsunade-sama ordering me for dealing with paperwork at the Hokage tower all day so she can be lazy and drink some sake" Sakura had been burying her homesickness, 10 years worth of homesickness, till now. She rests her head and looks up at the ceiling.

"Speaking of... Naruto you never tell me how's things go after I'm gone." said Sakura who was now looking at him. Naruto jolts and avoids her eye contact and starts sweating bullets.

"Oh yeah? I thought I already told you, I guess I got carried away in this world, you can't blame me though, this place is fascinating!" said Naruto cheerfully. Sakura was about to ask him but suddenly Naruto stood up making her surprised a little bit, his face had a serious look in the distant, not long after that Sakura started to do the same as she felt a faint sudden shift in the air, she could sense it as well. They paid their meal and got out from the restaurant hastily. Once they were outside, Naruto activated his sage mode right away.

"2 Servants west, let's go." said Naruto, they then ran towards a nearby empty alley and started to scale the building. Once they were on the rooftop they ran full speed, jumping from one building to another.

"This signature belongs to Lancer, but the other one is someone new" he said to Sakura in mid air. New face means they have to observe again once more trying to learn this other servant. They see a traditional house. That is the place where they sense the servants. They stopped and stood on the electric pole a few blocks away. Naruto glances at the other side and senses another servant is coming. The signature belongs to Archer. He gritted his teeth for a moment and then started telling Sakura what he found which she replied with another nod.

Sakura watched the house and was surprised of what she found, 2 servants, Lancer and an unknown lady with blonde hair which was obviously a servant by the power she emitted, but also Shirou Emiya, standing not so far from the two servants. She enhanced her eyes with chakra and found out that Shirou had just become a master and has command seals on his backhand. At this moment Sakura messages her temple unable to believe what had just happened.

"Oh dear..." Sakura whine.

But then Lancer decides to retreat and leave them behind. As soon as he leaves, Tohsaka is already near the house running towards it with Archer in astral form. The servant in blue armor dress however launched herself straight to Tohsaka with a invisible weapon within her grasp about to deliver a devastating slash, this made Sakura and Naruto surprised while making their way to them right away.

Archer managed to block her attack right way but now they were standing, glaring at each other with a steadiness in their stance. Shirou Emiya ran catching up to his servant and was surprised when he found Tohsaka with Archer. Tohsaka was also shocked when she saw Shirou came out from his house with command seals on his hand.

"The hell, you became a master?!" said the girls in unison, now everyone was surprised when they heard a voice of another girl joined with Rin's at the same time, they looked up finding the source of the voice, squatting at the lamp pole was the pinkette staring at Shirou with wide eyes.

"Ryougi?!"

"Tohsaka?!"

"Emiya-senpai!?"

"Ryougi-san?!"

"Assassin!" Suddenly Naruto scream just right when he popped out behind Sakura with innocent look.

"What kind of assassin announces themselves in front of the enemy?!" Rin protested.

"Him-" "-Me" Sakura and Naruto said at the same time. At this moment, Shirou had gotten a massive headache while others had just sweat dropped not believing how messy the situation is right now.

"Alright first thing first... WHAT IS GOING ON?!" Shirou snapped and with that everyone then finally settled down. Shirou obviously clueless at this and they decide to not induce anymore headaches to the poor boy.

"Tohsaka-senpai, truce! And you lady in blue dress, truce! Let's get this thing organized first." said Sakura raising both of her hands trying to look as harmless as possible, and with that they finally set their weapon and guards down, then Sakura jumped and landed to the road so she stood with the others together.

"Alright then, so..."

"...What the hell." Rin Tohsaka can't believe what she just heard, she is having a hard time swallowing the story Shirou just said to them, "I can't believe this, you don't even know the Holy Grail exist and summoned your servant by accident, AND SOMEHOW GOT SABER! WHAT BULLSHIT!"

Rin finally snapped.

"God, why are you being so unfair to me?! You gave this moron what I want without any requirements, and I end up with this bastard." Rin kneeled down and punched the concrete road with her right hand dramatically while crying, Archer just protested on how his own master didn't value him at all.

"Blasphemy!" shout Sakura.

"Dammit woman, just because I'm an archer doesn't mean I'm the weakest in this war! Give some credit to your own servant!"

"Shut up! It's still doesn't change the fact that you are indeed a bastard!"

Archer blinked couple of times at his master statement, he then looked away as if he was thinking of something, "That's... actually true."

"Let's deal with that another time senpai, right now we have a bigger matter at hand like explaining this Holy Grail War to Emiya-senpai so he can deal with his situation and... uh... prevent him from killing himself or getting killed." said Sakura with a forced smile calming down her senior.

"Ugh... alright, it will be better if we go to that man..." Rin said with grimace, "...The supervisor from the Church, Kirei Kotomine."

"Alright but first, senpai you should wash yourself, you stink" said Sakura to Shirou who hadn't taken any baths since this morning, Shirou gave a pained look and felt down because a girl just said he stunk.

Sakura and Rin are now sitting near the pond of the Emiya household waiting for Shirou to get ready. Rin sat quite far from Sakura and they stayed in awkward silence, well for Rin, but for Sakura she could just care less as she was humming a song and swinging her legs in a cheerful manner.

"You alright Ryougi?" ask Rin to Sakura little bit worried. A couple hours ago, she saw her fainted because of exhaustion in front of her and now she sees her getting a lot better. It's almost scary. Is this one of her servant's skill? Or her magecraft, similar on how she just saved Shirou from a death-guarantee-wound? To be able to recover in the short amount of time is quite a scary skill, useful, but now she just feels a tad bit relieved she can see Sakura beaming with energy again.

"Yeah, sorry you had to see that, seems like I overdid it." said Sakura with sheepish smile.

"You dumb, don't force yourself too far like that, it would be silly if you died because of your own stupidity." Rin said crossing her arms, so much horror for one day for her, she felt on the edge but she never shows it.

"Un! Don't worry about me, I'll be careful next time, thanks Tohsaka-senpai" she grinned heartily.

Naruto suddenly landed down in front of Sakura making Rin startled a little bit because of the fast landing but somehow didn't break anything on the ground or make any sound, as expected from Assassin class. Naruto whispered something to Sakura and with that her expression changed with a serious look, she stands up right away.

"I'll leave Emiya-senpai to you!" and with that she took off jumping so high and so far to the dark sky together with her Servant. Rin has to say that she is very impressed. Sakura has actually mastered the enhancement magecraft and she executed it very nicely. Rin, on the other hand, still can't even handle a landing and only manage to jump for 2 meters.

"To get beaten by my junior on enhancement magic like this, I need to practice myself more." Rin muses.

"What do you mean by got beaten on enhancement magic?" ask Archer who materializes beside her.

"I mean you saw her earlier, she managed to jump higher and move faster meaning she executed the magic so well to grant her that"

"I didn't sense nor see any prana being used at all; nor magic being casted. That was not magic."

"Eh...?"

Sakura and Naruto are on the mountain walking through the forest after traveling by trees for 15 minutes. The moonlight, thankfully, is bright enough for them to see clearly. Sakura is following Naruto after he had given her news at the Emiya's Household. Naruto finally stopped and gazed behind the bushes in front of him.

Sakura walked beside him and followed his gaze. What she found was a naked woman... or a corpse of woman, the condition was bad, missing right arm, a heart with a hole in her chest, and her legs twisted, broken. The woman had short hair with red purple eyes and a beauty mark just right under her left eye, the woman was actually quite beautiful but she died gruesomely making Naruto grimace on what he saw. Sakura investigated the wound and there was no clean cut. There is some blood and bruises on her knuckles and shins which meant she actually fought back and may have knew one or two things about martial arts, but her knee were shattered. Her twisted leg was probably the wound rendered her immobile and the killer finished her afterwards.

"She was murdered, teared apart forcefully. Whoever did this use a brute power to kill her." said Sakura, she then checked the blood which turned out to be quite fresh. She estimated that the woman got killed probably around an hour. Sakura then decided to check on the woman's lower part and put two fingers in. After that, she took it out and rubbed her fingers with her thumb.

"And it's not a rape as well, seems like we got ourselves a victim of a psychopath killer." Sakura said with concern, "How did you find her?"

"When Lancer fled after he got the kid at school, I made a kage bunshin and followed him, he headed to the mountain and then my bunshin sensed a burst of prana in the air near the mountain, took me by surprise, sadly lancer managed to notice me at that time and rendered my bunshin back, we did a cat and mouse game until he finally got my bunshin good, I sent another one to the last place my bunshin popped, but I couldn't sense lancer again, even with my sage mode, but I found this, 400 meters away from where my bunshin got defeated."

"Is she another witness? But it can't be Lancer's doing, not a single trace of a spear piercing this woman or anything that could resemble a wound caused by a spear." said Sakura puzzled of what happened.

"I don't know but this is really awful." Naruto put his palm on his face. He was seriously questioning humanity at this point. No matter where they are there will always be that lunatic bastard doing some twisted, vulgar, unforgivable deed like this, and then he froze.

"I sense a servant, quite potent aura from the city" said Naruto to Sakura, they both shift their gaze to the city, "This new servant is near that kid and that twintail girl, I can sense malicious intent from this new party."

"Let's join up and see the new faces." said Sakura, and with that Naruto took off followed by Sakura.

A few moments later, they arrived at a river side near a bridge. There they found a huge, or rather humongous man with dark brown skin, glowing red eyes, messy long hair, muscular body carrying a huge weapon that seems like it was made out of stone with sharp ridged edges, and near him is a little girl with snowy white hair with a purple coat and fur hat.

Standing at their opposite position is Saber already having her weapon steady, standing with her stance in front of Shirou and Rin. Sakura and Naruto land beside Shirou and Rin, almost startled by them for their sudden appearance.

"Heya, things about to go down?" ask Naruto.

"Good to see Emiya-senpai still alive." said Sakura giving a brief smile before glance to Tohsaka.

"Well while you gone we met that kid." Rin said while pointing at the white haired girl, "Illyasviel Von Einzbern, and that is her servant Berserker, turns out, she wants this man called Shirou Emiya dead, for some reason."

"Hey I have no idea either." said Shirou understanding her sarcasm.

Naruto and Sakura eyed the girl who has been staring at them since their arrival. Her blood red eyes assessing them up and down. Naruto can sense something unnatural with the girl. He couldn't pinpoint it but i was making him unnerved.

"Who is the small fry who decided to join in from nowhere?" said Ilya with a straight face. Her words make gain a Sakura tick mark on her forehead. The first sentence she ever heard from the little girl and she already dislikes her.

"What a smug brat" said Naruto, "Sakura-chan, I think this is a good time, I've been itching to fight and truly participate in this war, what do you think?"

Sakura used her clairvoyance magic to see Berserker's stat, when she found out that the servant is quite broken with EX strength, she smirked. She pulled out her black leather gloves and wore them while walking forward together with Naruto passing Saber who give them a confused look, and with that Sakura clapped with her fists quite hard, enough to make her red leather jacket fluttering, Naruto who stands beside her grinning wildly eyeing their enemy upfront.

"Sorry Saber, but we are gonna steal your opponent. To be honest, I need some 'warming up as well. I've been rusty and now is a good time. I'm going to punch that guy, and we going to beat that fugly bloke."

With that declaration, everyone was surprised and fell silent. Did this little girl just say she was going to fight Berserker head on? The silence broke with a cry from Naruto getting high spirited.

"Alright!" Naruto pumped up, "Just like usual, let's show them who's the boss."

"Wait a minute! You going to face that monster together with your servant?! Are you out of your mind?! Assassin has no chance to take on Berserker head on in the first place!" Tohsaka shouted.

"Ryougi-san don't do that, you'll die!" and now Shirou was also trying to stop her but Sakura just smirked, and with that they heard laughter.

Illya was laughing hard from her place. Everyone seemed on edge because of that, but Naruto and Sakura didn't even waver, "What a funny bunch of clowns! But no matter, you all will die anyway, kill them Berserker!"

As soon as those words left Illya's mouth, Berserker gave a loud warcry and flung himself forward in a flash that was hard to see with the naked eye. What was left was only a crater on the ground from where Berserker was standing. Berserker reappeared right in front of the pinkette and swung his barbaric sword at her.

Everyone gasped in surprise as everything happened so fast. Saber was about to intercept but it was too late. A huge explosion had been created and everyone except Naruto and Illya screamed.

"RYOUGI!" Shirou shouted while Rin watched in horror thinking that their junior just got obliterated by the humongous sword of Berserker, the servant of madness, but to their surprise, when the dust finally casted aside, what they found was not their junior's dead body.

Sakura, standing still in her place, stopped Berserker's attack with her hands. Two hands with gloves stopped Berserker's sword at full force. Everyone gasped. Even archer, from afar, was flabbergasted. He could not believe what he saw.

"Hiyah!" Sakura cast aside the sword making Berserker get pulled with it. As this happened, Sakura cocked her right arm back, gathering her chakra on her fist, and she let out her infamous cry.

"SHANNARO!"

Her fist met with Berserker's face, it gave a crackling noise and then...

*Boom*

The wind behind Sakura went wild and the earth beneath her feet shattered from the impact. She punched the servant of madness right in the face. Her punch was so hard that the wind created from the impact of her knuckle and Berserker's face threw Rin and Shirou away; making them fall lose their footing. Saber and Naruto however managed to hold their footing. Meanwhile Berserker had flown away because of the punch. He was flung straight past Illya's body who was in shock, petrified with wide eyes, her hair fluttering because of the wind made from her servant who got thrown away passing beside her and kept skidding behind her until it finally stopped and left a huge crater on the ground.

"You want to kill me?! THEN COME AT ME!"

Sakura shouted at Illya while tightening her fist. She is burning with passion and fire causing fear to strike Illya, as well as everyone. They had just witnessed a human punching away a Berserker as if it was a ragdoll, a girl who is actually on par with servants, going toe-on-toe in strength. Everyone's eyes were wide in disbelief with their mouth open wide.

"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!" Rin snapped and pulled her hair. Saber and Archer can't even leave a scratch on Berserker yet after all their attempts at attacking it before Sakura arrived. She even used most of her gems just to pin Berserker down and yet it was of no use, and now suddenly a mere magus is just punching a servant of madness and is winning on strength.

"A-amazing..." said Saber under her breath and Shirou, for once, was actually terrified of Sakura. The gossip of her being really strong at school is actually sounding like it's been watered down too many times compared to what he just saw.

"That's my Sakura!" said Naruto with wide grin.

"No way..." said Illya under her breath. She doesn't like it. She hates this Ryougi girl. She really despises her at this very moment. She is angry and pissed, and so she refuses to keep this up and let them have their moment. This must end now. "Berserker! KILL THEM NOW!"

And with that, Berserker stood back up from where he just got flown away. He raised his sword and started to run forwards with a scream, charging at the duo shinobis in breaking neck speed. Sakura gave a nod to Naruto and then they ran forwards in the same speed. Berserker swung his sword aiming for slashing the both of them but they dodged as Naruto slid down and Sakura jumped up. In that moment. Naruto, in a flash, brung out two kunai and stabbed both of Berserker's ankles while sliding down between Berserker's legs. It makes him lose his balance a little bit and lean forward, but Sakura was already in front of his face and gave him a dropkick in the face. The action threw Berserker backwards flying over Naruto, but he had readied a Rasengan fast and strikes Berserker's back. Berserker got hit and flew up in rotation. Sakura jumped fast catching up with Berserker. She rose her leg high as soon as she was on the same level with Berserker in the air and then bring down her heel hard kicking Berserker and sent him back to the ground. It caused another huge explosion and crater as soon as Berserker's body hit the ground. Naruto then used hiraishin so he teleported beside Sakura who was still in the air. He made two rasengans on each hand. Sakura then grabbed his leg and started to swing him. She threw him straight to Berserker, who's on the ground, making Naruto fall in rocket speed.

"Rasenrengan!"

He shoved both of his hands down to his target, but Berserker managed to recover fast and dodged it by jumping out from where he was. Naruto's rasengans made contact with the ground causing it to make a huge explosion. The ground now gone quite deep making a form of a huge bowl. There is nothing left but dust and Naruto was standing in the center of it. He jumped out to meet with Berserker once more as Sakura landed beside him.

"Alright enough warm up! Let's take this seriously" said Naruto with cocky grin.

To Be Continued

Oh mah gah, you guys, your review giving a great idea. Darn it I regret that I read y'all review just whenever I about to publish, I should visit my own story more often.

Anon Yue: that's a great comedy, I might make something in future

sheikrajela: Likely Unlikely, I'm not sure about they working together to that extent, Sakura and Naruto is protagonist true so I can see how they will heal Shirou and all. The thing is that Sakura want the Holy Grail, for me to think she will not only heal him but let her or Naruto train him as well like that is very unlikely, but again this story still On-Going.

That is all for today, thanks for people who follow and add this story to their fave and thank you for giving this story a chance and stuff! We will see again soon!
