Ryudoen Temple...

"Alright Tousaka-kun, looks like a beautiful night for some blood. That Samurai looking guy with the topnot is you target. Beserker and I will enter while your servant holds him here. Apparently he is a lesser Assassin type based on a fictional warrior. Medea herself summoned him. I believe her Noble Phantasm is responsible somehow. Rule Breaker itself is hard to understand by its very nature." She twirled around and giggled like she didn't just act a lot older than she looks. Then the hulking form of Hercules materialized behind her. With an almost gentle touch he lifted the girl on to his shoulder. "Don't just stand there gaping, do you job!"

"Fine, Saber you ready?" Rin sighed loudly as her servant nodded with purpose. 'So this guy wants an honorable sword duel to the death. Well that seems very Bushido of him.'

"Halt intruder for it is my duty to silence all who would trespass." The tall man drew his katana in a flash of movement.

"Very well warrior, let our weapons decide whose duty is greater." Saber summoned her invisible blade with purpose.

"Yes exactly, it is my fondest wish after all!" He laughed whole heartedly as he charged the female.

Steel kissed for several minutes as each side tested the other. At least until he attempted to sever her left leg. First blood was drawn as a timely dodge and her armor minimized the wound. Without hesitation she tried for his briefly open side. He cartwheeled at the last moment turning a fatal blow into a shallow cut. However, the top part of his gi suffered a major rip. He backed off defensively. Then tore the hindrance from his shoulders revealing his bare chest.

He had not missed the other guest jumping over the sword battle moments ago. Now he smiled sinisterly. His master said he was free to go all out once the other master entered the temple. "Now Arturia Pendragon. Once proclaimed the king of knights we can get serious."

Saber grew concerned at her true name being used. "This is a trap."

"Of course I couldn't face Hercules with that nasty Noble Phantasm of his. However, if I get a true test of my skill what do I care. I am, but a dream someone thought up after all." The samurai laughed darkly.

"Master go, I will keep him away!" With that the former king of the Britons charged with purpose. Now the dance of death was in full swing.

Inside...

A dozen skeletal fighters attempted to slow the massive raging creature. They were shattered into bone fragments in seconds. Though as Hercules moved past them he sensed dangerous levels of magical energy. He quickly took his master down and shielded her. His entire body was engulfed in dark flames from the underworld. He disappeared in moments screaming in pain. However, within a few seconds he was fully formed again. He bellowed in rage and charged foward thru several more traps.

Ilysaviel mentally counted his deaths as she followed slowly behind. 'Four already, now I'm getting excited!'

Elsewhere in the city...

"Chiron are you suffering the effects of old age? I thought servants were summoned in their prime? Or are you just this slow?" Medusa laughed in a maniacal way as she dodged another volly of arrows.

"Your useless taunting will do you no good. I am not known for losing my temper in battle." Another flurry of her rather unique weapons silenced him.

They both were currently at a standstill. If something didn't happen to turn the tide. Luck alone would determine the victor. Both Servants realized this at the same time. Unfortunately, for Archer a Rider was gifted with speed and acted first.

"Time to end this, you stubborn mule!" The sky darkened as the purple haired beauty called out her Noble Phantasm. "Belerephon!" Suddenly, a white winged horse appeared with Medusa astride it. The beast came towards her target like a comet.

"Time to fight with stars I suppose. Antares Snipe!" Due to the Rider Class servant wearing absolutely no armor the blow struck true and fatally. She screamed as an arrow made of starlight pierced her heart. The woman was gone moments before making contact with her opponent. The centaur dropped to his knees breathing heavily. "Shiro are you alright?"

"Uh yeah, just a few bruises I think." He walked over to his and Kane-kun's savior. He noticed a strange pyramid of gold laying on the ground where the woman disappeared. It was a little bigger than his fists. It hand weird markings on it he didn't recognize. This overwhelming desire to touch it put him in a daze.

'Mortal do you desire Power.'..

"Yes in order to save my friends. I need it or all will be lost." The red haired boy seemed split in purpose. He wasn't greedy, but the terrified child he once was differed. Amongst the ruins of a city he once lusted for the strength to survive.

'Very well. You have proven your worthiness and possess something with the quality to contain. In the name of Din I grant you power.'..

"Master Shiro what happened? You were suddenly engulfed in a red light." The trainer of heroes was at a loss to describe the overwhelming energy he just felt. However, in an instant he felt the return of all the mana he had used since he was first summoned.

"I don't know Archer, but I feel amazing right now. I have to get Himuro home." Unknown to him a triangle shaped mark of gold was now in the middle of his chest that vanished as his injuries disappeared.

A Nearby Park...

"Rider the magic circle has vanished." As Zelda spoke she heard a growl of acknowledgement. The shadow beasts stopped manifesting immediately. Now that she no longer had to keep them back. She could devote all her attention to helping the person once known as the Hero of Twilight. Apparently the Lynel had enough mana to remain without the glyph feeding it.

Link bit down on the back leg of the creature as it reared causing it to stumble. Seeing this his master used a controlled stream of water to douse it's fire breath at the same time. As the monster bellowed in rage it kicked the bothersome wolf off. Then attempted to bisect the annoyance with the massive two-handed axe. However, as it narrowly missed and buried the metal in the earth. The pool of water dripping beneath it solidified into a block of ice. Temporarily immobile it tried to free itself. Once the cage shattered the wolf charged like a spear and tore one of it's arms clean off. The shock of blood loss paralyzed it in a death scream as it returned to the spirit world.

Link's tongue dangled as he breathed heavily. The adrenaline haze of rage slowly left him. Then he howled loudly in both grief and triumph.

"Everything is alright now Rider. I may not know all of you story, but your safe now." Strangely she felt a warm light within. Without her direct awareness a golden triangle appeared on the back of her right hand. Somehow she returned her servant to his human form. Though now he wore his legendary green tunic.

"Thanks for that Zelda. That form is powerful, but holds the drawbacks of Madness Enhancement. If I had been incarnated as a Beserker I could harness that strength at will. However, as a rider it's much weaker and more limited. Oddly I should have used up half of my mana reserves. Yet I feel full." Then he noticed the Heroes Garb he now wore. 'This happened when I returned to my normal form for the first time. While alive as well.'

The blonde woman stared at him in a daze for a few moments. She did not feel alone in her own skin. However, just as suddenly as it came it left. The gold mark disappeared along with that feeling. She held her head in concern. "I must be really tired. Let us go home Rider."

He bowed with all formality. For the first time in a long time he felt like the general he once was. "As you wish Lady Zelda Sheikah."
