Chapter One: The First Night
In one of Magnolia city's subway stations, Jellal Fernandes, lost and confuse, try to navigate the chaotic landscape he find himself trapped in. He already knew that the train was long gone, but something compelled him to keep moving forward into the red mist. As he moved his body, he heard voices coming from the end of the subway platform.
There Jellal saw two strange people, a blonde haired girl and an azure-tinted black haired man. They both were standing opposite of each other in a confronting manner. Jellal bolted behind a column and began to listen in to their conversation
"Geez, did you have to go through such an extent to trap me here. " The man with black hair said first with a calm but annoyed expression.
"Well it's not every day I can catch a servant off guard and out in the open like this. This is an opportunity I couldn't let pass by." the girl respond in a cheerful manner
"Oi, you should know that the Holy Grail War hasn't begun yet. The judges were very adamant that there wouldn't be any fighting until all seven of us have been summoned."
"Yep that may be true, but that doesn't mean I cannot collect data on my opponents. The Grail War is all about information and secrecy. The more you know about your opponent and the less they know about yourself, are both very critical factors in obtaining victory."
The girl then started to taunt her opponent. "Aw, what a shame though. I was really hoping to also catch your master too. It would have been ideal to analyze the both of you for future conflicts. He must very incompetent if he allows his servant to walk into a trap like this"
"Don't you dare talk trash about my master" he replied in a serious tone. "My master wouldn't stoop so low as to use a Reality Marble to trap someone like this."
Hiding in the corner was Jellal, who overheard their conversation, had bewilderment written over his face and start to ponder about the whole situation.
"Holy Grail War, Servants, and Reality Marble, What are they talking about? He whispers to himself as he watches intently. He already though about dialing for help but to his dismay his phone had no connection. Fear had started to run over his face.
The Blonde girl suddenly held her hand up in the air.
"Well, no need to delay any longer. Let get this started, shall we?"
Snap
"Archer"
A glowing red light radiated behind her and blinded the room with intensity. Out of nowhere, appears another man wearing vintage clothing.
"What just happen?" a surprise Jellal said as he saw another strange person take center stage. He took a closer look and notice that the young man wore very old-fashion clothing. The Medieval Fiore outfit and the old scarf around his neck, made the man look somewhat out of place, a fact that was reaffirmed by his odd strawberry pink hair. While Jellal found the man's pink hair to be strange, he wasn't one to talk with his own unusual blue hair and his odd tattoo on his face.
"Go Archer; show this insolent fool your power."
Archer stood there with a displeased look on his face. "Oi, lady my name isn't Archer, get it right for the last time, its Na ….."
Before he could finish his sentence, he met a furious punch to the face by his companion
"How many time do I have to tell you, don't casually say your real name to the enemy. I will be at a disadvantage if they find out which heroic spirit you are" the girl yelled as she slap her servant silly.
"Ouch, Okay I get it lady, my name is Archer "squeamish the pink hair servant with tear in his eyes.
"And one more thing its Master Heartfilia not lady, got that you barbarian."
"Hmm, Heartfilia, now this is a surprise" Said the black hair man with curiosity. "Well as much as I like to watch this lover's quarrel, I don't have the time to spare to deal with you guys." The man with the white coat slaps his fist into his palm. Energy radiated from his body as he concentrated with all his might.
"Ice-make: Gungnir"
The cascade of ice that surrounded his arm, created a large frozen spear. The weapon was elaborately design and smooth despite its composition of ice. The spear had a good reach as it stood almost as tall as its wielder and its blade was sharpened enough that it could easily cut off any limbs or appendages.
"Huh, so you're the Lancer-type servant. Well it doesn't matter what class you are, I more intrigue in your ability to use Ice magic. It actually ironic that your elements is the exact opposite of my Servant's own."
Archer gave out a huge roar as his hand became enveloped by burning flames. He seems very happy that there was a chance to fight someone as he bolted towards his opponent with fury
"I am seriously burning up"
Lancer raised his own spear and charged head long into Archer.
Jellal would have considered this a nightmare by the looks of things. Several impossible events just happen right in front of his eyes. He gazed at the duel between the two servants and gave in to his fear of running away.
"This is crazy, flaming hands, ice summoning, I need to get out of here." He tried to find an escape route but then notices that the red midst still deterred him from finding a clear cut way. He didn't want to be caught into this madness and opted to stay in hiding until it was over.
Archer and Lancer were evenly matched; both of them could not gain an advantage over other. As fire exploded and ice cracked, the two warriors prepared to end this little fight.
Archer clenches his hands together as he charged up his ultimate attack.
"Wait Archer, you give your identity away if you use that spell" scream the girl at her Servant, but it was too late.
"Hidden Fire Form-Crimson Lotus: Unlimited Dragon Blades"
The inferno rose up into the air and thousands of flaming blades were materializing above Archer. When all of the thousand blades of flames were finish, he launches them all at once at his target. Like a sea of endless arrows raining down from the heavens, his flaming swords all crashed into Lancer with heavy force.
The attack was so massive, that Jellal mistakenly thought an earthquake had happen. To avoid the very earth rumbling, he curled up and waited for the chaos to be over. He was in terror, the situation was a nightmare.
As the flame dies down, Archer and his master look anxiously in hopes of obtaining their long plotted out victory
But Lancer quietly destroyed that hope as he rises from the mist unharmed. Though he had a serious face, he seems reserved to not drag out this fight. Unlike his two attackers, the Servant abides by the rules and the codes of honor with his life. He had wasted too much time with them and had to escape somehow.
As he ponders on what to do next, Lancer was unaware that something was out of place until Archer couldn't help but spurt it out.
"W-w-why did you just strip all your cloths away just now?"
Lancer, who didn't notice, was wearing nothing but his boxers. He had stripped his white coat and blue shirt without realizing it.
"What, where is my clothes?" his serious face turn into shock and confusion.
"So, he a pervert, that was unexpected" said the girl.
While she was amuse by Lancer's quirks, she notices that her Servant had a confuse expression in his face. Archer seem to have caught an unusual scent as he continuously sniff with his nose.
"I didn't realize this before but someone else is here, I can smell it"
Jellal, in hearing Archer's words, accidentally took a gasp of surprise for a quick second before he held his own mouth tightly. But it was too late; the Servant heard the sound and shifted his gaze towards the pillar.
"Crimson Lotus: Fire Dragon's Fist" He smashed the column with his bare hands to reveal the once hidden Jellal.
"What are you doing here" question Archer to Jellal
" Crap, someone else was in the reality marble but that impossible I made sure that it only capture the servant" the girl said in disbelief.
Lancer took this opportunity into his favor. He readies his frozen lance and launched it straight at the girl
Archer was caught unaware. As his master life was in peril, He quickly cried out to her.
"LUCY, WATCH OUT"
The spear flied straight at the unaware master who was caught off guard by the appearance of the intruder. Her life would end before her desire could be realized. Was this the end of Lucy Heartfilia?
No, Lancer intentionally missed, he will abide by the rules of the competition till the end. He had instead aim for the invisible shiny globe that stood next to her.
"It took me a while but I finally found the center of this distortion"
The spear impaled the globe that was causing the crimson chaos. Not long after, it flickered and exploded into a gigantic flash of red lights and particles. The once distorted sea of red faded back to the old subway wall and concrete.
The girl, Lucy, would have been caught in the explosion if it weren't for the quick arrival of her Servant that shielded her from the blast.
"Are you happy now, you got to experience the power of another servant and now you know how powerful they all are. " Archer said while pushing back the roaring flames from engulfing his precious master.
Lucy was in terror but the smooth words of her Servant calm her down. "It was a disappointment but I got what I needed from him."
Jellal, who noticing that he was back at the station, took this chance to run away. But not long before he started that he was stop by Lancer, who blocks his only escape route.
"My sincerest apologies master, I was caught up in a scuffle with another Master and Servant. But now we have another problem to deal with"
Jellal soon found his feet frozen on to the platform of the station, unable to move. "Crap, what is this." In desperation, He tried to break the ice encasing him but to no avail was he successful. Jellal looks up at the black-haired man as he converse with some invisible entity.
"You want me too….. But Master, isn't that too extreme…No, that not what I meant... (Sigh)Yes I will comply with your orders." Lancer seemed reluctant to carry out his master's wishes, but he knew that it had to be done. The Grail Wars must be kept a secret from the regular people, and anyone who finds out must be eliminated.
"Sorry about this, but your just in the wrong place at the wrong time" Lancer said as he turn to a frighten Jellal. "Well rules are rules"
Jellal then felt a piercing pain in his stomach; the Servant had stabbed him with his frozen spear. He felt his blood tricking down as his wound open more. Falling down as he clenches tightly, Jellal's eyes were growing darker as his life drained away.
"I am I really going to die like this?"
