Author Note

Hello there and welcome to another chapter of Avalon Bond.

Before going on with the chapter, let's answer some of the reviews from last chapter.

Kien8544 – Oh I do have a nice plan set for Scathach. Don't worry about it. Writing her in Shadow Spear was a complete joy.

Yuutojaden – Only one more servant…but that will be revealed later on.

KaneGehabite – You asked three questions, so I shall answer accordingly. 1) Arturia and the Lion King will be separate entities. However, as I placed in some chapters in the past, their interactions will appear the most when they cross weapons. Like it happened with Altered version of herself on several occasions in the past. 2) In Camelot singularity, the enemy is the Lion King. Ozymandias, as I recall, is not the enemy. He even helps Chaldea with his Noble Phantasm, riding the pyramid, a weird ability, but that's what Nasu did, in the end. I shall follow up the movie more, as well as the actual gameplay. I know that the movie does not cover important stuff about Mash's shield and even forget about Sherlock Holmes's discovery, but I am digressing right now. 3) About Babylonia or rather Gilgamesh, well, I am still torn about that…this is a continuation of Fate Stay Night UBW, which he was the villain, albeit in his Archer version. I am still to determine how he will be in his Caster version and how he will behave towards Arturia and Shirou…and Archer as well.

Well, I guess that's enough for now. Here is the chapter.

Please enjoy.


Avalon Bond

Part II – Fate Grand Order

Chapter 40 – North America Part V

Beta: Axel Emiya


For a moment, Shirou and Scathach eyed each other. Rama had quickly gotten up with all of his injuries fixed just like last time.

Scathach took her moment to quickly observe the young man that managed to fulfill just about every wish she could ever have, in life. She could feel the energy of Avalon emitting from him, just like before. However, she couldn't see any of the runes that she had placed on him, when they trained together. His outfit was completely alien to her and she couldn't see the red spear that he would project easier than breathing. Instead, she saw a sword and a bow…it didn't take long for the seasoned Lancer warrior to realize that this Shirou was not her Shirou. For many reasons, but the most heart-breaking of them all was the look in his eyes towards her…

Or rather lack of, for that matter.

The last fond memory she had of her prodigy was of his heartfelt tears for her when she announced her love for Emiya Shirou, just before she died.

This Shirou looked quite similar and still a lot different from the one she knew.

She could feel the same level of kindness from his eyes, albeit the fact that it looked many times more experienced than before…

Looking even closer deep in Shirou's eyes, she could see someone else looking back at her…with similar appearance, but with much grayer hair and a few wrinkles on his face…an old warrior. Last but not least, she could feel the energy of a servant radiating from this Emiya Shirou, which was quite surprising and not at the same time. Well, this may not be the Shirou that she loves, but he's Emiya Shirou alright.

The redhead, for his turn, eyed the new appearance and found great power exuding from her…power and commanding respect, the likes of which he could only feel coming from Arturia's presence. One thing that stroke as odd, though, was that she looked at him, with recognizing eyes and he, for the likes of him, had never seen her before. Robin and Rama looked at each other, also wondering about this woman's intention, looking at their Archer servant with such scrutiny. It dawned on Shirou after a while that she had introduced herself as Scathach.

"A pleasure to meet you, Scathach…my name is Emiya Shirou and I appreciate your assistance in saving Rama, down there." Scathach allowed herself some moment of nostalgia, when she heard his voice. Her chest ached, but she surpassed it, while casually walking towards this other version of her prodigy. Swirling her red spear and then placing masterfully in her back, she stood face to face with him and noticed just how tall he had gotten.

"There is no need to thank me, Emiya Shirou…" For a while, she had allowed some time shaking his hand, while smiling at him. For a while, she considered asking…about Sakura, Taiga, Rin and the others, but held back at the end.

"Wait, you said you're that monster's teacher?" Shirou and Scathach both stopped looking at each other as Scathach turned to Rama.

"I really don't want to take credit for his actions here, but yes, Cu Chullain was one of my students. And before any of you ask, no, that's not what he looked like, in life."

"I know…he was a servant in the Grail War I participated in a long time ago." Scathach took that into consideration, knowing that they had encountered as well, but she wondered how that encounter went. "While he kept his actions most to himself, he was not a bad guy and even helped a good friend of mine, at the cost of his life." The keeper of the Land of Shadows hummed at the information. In her Grail War next to Shirou, she had never got the opportunity to meet the Cu Chullian she had known back then and Shirou's definition was more or less what she remembered her old pupil to be.

"Whatever, we need to get back to the others and relay what happened with Geronimo." Robin surmised and then turned to the new servant. "I don't know how or why you appeared right now, but I take it you're on our side?"

Scathach smiled coyly at the question.

"Oh I wonder about that…my main concern would be to teach my old student a lesson in manners…that's all…I know next to nothing about sides as you placed it."

Robin sighed, knowing that she was playing with him, though he wondered if it was worth the hassle to convince her.

"She saved Rama, so at least we can ascertain that she's not against us, Robin…now, we must head back. The others must be wondering about what happened."

Robin and Rama nodded and Scathach smiled at Shirou's words. She could feel his comforting and illuminated aura even stronger than before, being this close. Being sensitive to the mana path around the redhead, she could feel the power of Avalon alright, but she could feel something else as well. The Earth's energy channeling up his legs and body, as if the redhead was one with the very land he was standing on. So much so that she could already envision his prowess in the battlefield, looking at his stance and resolve. Added that by his supposed lack of self-preservation and Scathach could seriously consider this Shirou to also being a worthy adversary.

Already, she could feel the juice of battle passing through her veins, observing this new Shirou…just like she had with the one she knew.

Robin and Rama observed the woman ogling Shirou like a piece of meat and both shuddered. Robin, for his turn, turned to Shirou to see if he was catching on, but the lucky bastard was indeed clueless.

"Let's head back, then…I trust that Miss Scathach wouldn't say no to at least a nice meal, even if her allegiance is still to be verified." The Ireland legend also remembered this bit from the other Shirou…about him being a godsend in the kitchen.

She had no reason to believe that this Shirou wouldn't have the same level of skill.

"No warrior in their right mind would ever say no to a feast…and it seems you do know a lot about my wayward student, so I can tag along with you all for now." Shirou smiled at that, as the group set foot once more.


===With the rest of Chaldea===

Stuck with nothing to do except bid their time, the rest of the group composed of Ritsuka, Mash, Arturia, Nightingale and Jeanne had decided to settle up camp, while waiting for any form of communication from Shirou's group.

Arturia, in special, turned to her link she had with her fiancée, so that he could call in for help if needed be. Shirou was keeping tabs with her throughout the entire time, reporting what was going on, hence why she wasn't overly concerned about his well-being. When all hell broke loose and the fight started, she was the one who reported to everyone that happened, up to the point where they had known about Geronimo's situation and the fact that Rama was only saved thanks to some new arrival that Shirou didn't go into many details over, saying only that she would be following them back to their position.

The last communication happened close to an hour ago and the rest of the Chaldea staff had to choose some leisure activity, while they waited. As such, Jeanne, Ritsuka and Mash had decided to set up a bonfire, as the day was about to set. Nightingale decided to keep herself busy by checking her medical supplies over and over, making sure that she had enough, when the others arrived, if someone needed treatment.

Arturia, for her part, joined with Jeanne and the others for some light conversation, when everyone paid attention to the arrival of Shirou and the others.

The King of Knights opened up a smile upon seeing her fiancée all safe and sound, but said smile immediately turned into a frown as she spotted the woman walking by his side. Regal beauty just wouldn't do her justice. Just about every aspect of this woman's physique brought about a frown in Arturia's face. So much so, that her feet moved closer to him, before she could realize it. Jeanne was simply observing the situation in anticipation. It was rather obvious in her mind that this new servant was very forward with Shirou for someone who had just arrived and presumably did not know him.

"Shirou…I am glad you returned safe and sound."

The redhead samurai servant waved at Arturia and his focus shifted from Scathach to Arturia almost immediately, softening Arturia's resolve to do something about the situation. It couldn't be helped in the end…apparently, her clueless fiancée attracts the female attention. Rin had openly joked about it on plenty of occasions and Bazett on occasion said so. Scathach, for her part, observed and hid her surprise well, when her eyes landed on the blonde knight standing in front of them. The image she had of the King of Knights was of someone of short stature, short hair and green eyes. Now, she was all grown up with longer hair, a different armor and quite a knock out, indeed. In her Shirou's dimension, the servant Saber stick around after the Grail War, but resumed her actual physique.

She wondered what happened in this dimension for the King of Knights to look like this.

"Shirou-senpai, who is she?" Mash then approached together with Ritsuka, before the redhead servant turned to look at Scathach.

"Apparently, she is Cu Chullain's mentor, Mash. Her name is Scathach." Mash gasped in surprise and even Romani chocked from the intercom at the name. Arturia was also surprised to look at the one who tutored Lancer.

"Wow, the guardian of the Land of Shadows herself is here…" The lancer servant smiled at the lilac Shielder servant.

"Yes, that's right, what I used to be, that is, before someone very dear to me in life gave me something I long wished for." Arturia narrowed her eyes the second Scathach's eyes landed on Shirou and then returned to Mash. "I am also quite different from than the other Celtic servants who were summoned to this singularity. Hummm, I'd rather kill myself one more time, before being summoned by Medb of all people. That's not many in history that I truly despise, but her takes the top list for sure." Roman and Rama had met Medb and couldn't help but agree wholeheartedly.

"I take it you two had an entanglement in the past, then?" Scathach turned to Robin and snorted.

"That's putting it mildly…oh British bowman." Robin looked surprised at being identified so easily, but then again this woman knows quite a lot, so he wasn't so surprised. "Now, Shirou here promised me a nice feast, but I don't see many utensils for that."

"Oh, I got that covered, don't worry about it." With that, the cook servant walked away to gather enough food for everyone and start preparing it. Nightingale and Jeanne moved to help him prepare it. Mash and Ritsuka returned to the bonfire, while Rama and Robin followed them to take some rest after their battle. The Lancer legend just smirked, observing this Shirou work, with the same ethic displayed in her kitchen. His projection skills were every bit as outstanding as how she remembered, with him using it to project the necessary kitchen utensils.

"So, it's surprising to meet up with the one responsible for Cu Chullain's skill." Scathach closed her eyes and smiled, before looking sideways to see Arturia with her arms crossed and eyeing like her a hawk. Scathach, though, frowned at the mention of him.

"Hmmm, my student was already foolish enough in the past, but now I see him in an even more unstintingly, idiotic form." Before leaving with Rama, she looked at the bastard's new form and frowned. She was not looking forward to facing him darkened by the Grail yet again. "Perhaps, I was summoned into this singularity to put a collar on the bastard and take him back to the Throne with me." Arturia remembered the time when they first met in the Fifth Grail War and then at the time in Fuyuki in this dimension.

"From what Rama mentioned, indeed, he is different from the one I met before…despite his loose attitude, it was an honor to cross blades with him." Scathach laughed

"So, the King of Knights had exchanged blades with my old student, then…interesting."

"So you do know about me…and I take it you know about Shirou, as well." Scathach always enjoyed her conversations with the King of Knights, especially when she was able to get her all flustered over her infatuation with Shirou.

"Oh, dear old Saber…you got me…" Upon her servant class being mentioned, all warning flares appeared in Arturia's mind as she closed off her mental link with her fiancée for the mean time. Certainly, he would come right away, upon such distress.

"Talk now! Just how do you know about us…" Scathach could feel the imposing figure of Arturia's stare. It was indeed quite strong and demanding. Anyone less experienced would give right in. Though, Scathach wasn't exactly trying to keep a secret.

"I don't actually…" Arturia narrowed her eyes. "I know you two, but from another timeline." Scathach decided to tell Arturia everything that happened in her version of the Fifth Grail War. How a young Shirou first appeared to her and then she decided to teach him the art of runecraft and the spear. Then, Scathach explained about Sakura, Rin, Taiga, going as far as to mention a man who was Sakura's grandfather, called Zouken Matou. The one that appeared in London Singularity, if Arturia recalled as being one of the enemies responsible for the machine that kept up the fog. By the end of Scathach's story, she had explained that in the end, it was the other Shirou who managed to kill her, by providing her with the ultimate battle.

Arturia recalled the time when they had talked with Zelretch…precisely his mention about the different dimensions of the Grail War and the different Shirou that existed.

'I have seen multiple timelines of what happened at the Fuyuki's Fifth Grail War and I can tell you that there are many possible outcomes that could have happened. That is the beauty with multiple dimensions and it's precisely I enjoy watching them unfurl before me. It is like different stories from the same events. Your love interest, your ideals in life, the experiences you had with your father and even a different family, even Archer's actions varied in many ways. For all intents and purposes, you, Emiya Shirou is an enigma to me. I see many different personalities in you and even different characters with the same but also different eyes looking back at me. Even your ancestors like the one that currently rests in your realty marble.'

"So, the Shirou from your timeline was your student and prodigy…but that alone wouldn't warrant the behavior you have displayed towards my Shirou." Scathach smiled fondly and Arturia once again saw warning bells.

"Indeed, you are right in your assumption, dear King of Knights. Aside from my pride in seeing the powerful warrior he had become, I ended up seeing him in such a light that I had forgotten what it felt like to be in love. For longer than I could remember, I was responsible for the Land of the Dead, my dear old Saber. For millennia, I lived in the dark, so much that I became accustomed to the lack of light in my life. That changed once a little redhead boy came into my world and changed me." Scathach allowed herself some nostalgia…every scene of her Shirou and her, up to the point where they had their last and ultimate fight. The tears of sadness that fell from his eyes upon him piercing her heart with his projected red spear…Arturia, in the meantime, focused on her Shirou doing the cooking, while chatting with Jeanne.

"I can't fault you in the end…" Scathach turned to the King of Knights and saw her deep smile toward this Shirou. "I happen to know exactly of what you speak, as he had made that impact on me."

"There is no need to worry miss Arturia…just like I told you from my dimension, I know to whom his heart belongs and despite him looking quite similar, he is not my Shirou." Arturia nodded, relieved. "Allow me to ponder, however…"

Arturia turned to the Irish Lancer.

"Just how is he a servant?"

"Shirou is the same as Mash, the shielder servant with lilac hair you met before. They are called Pseudo-Servants…servants that manifest themselves using humans as their vessels. In our timeline, he got into contact with a heroic spirit from Ancient Japan named Senji Muramasa, a sword blacksmith. His spirit thus rests within Shirou's reality marble, the hill of swords." Scathach remembered the old eyes looking back at her, when she looked at this Shirou's eyes. "He was already an accomplished battle magus before receiving Muramasa's spirit. After that, his prowess only intensified." Scathach focused her eyes on the prana lines emerging from Shirou's defined abdomen.

She could feel the powerful energy of a powerful servant.

"How fitting…a blacksmith…just like his skill with sword tracing and projection." Arturia nodded with a smile.

"Indeed, afterward, he even forged a new Excalibur for me, with the runecraft skills he learned from Rin whom I am assuming you know and his knowledge as a blacksmith."

Scathach turned to Arturia in surprise at the mention of runecraft as Arturia showed her the sword.

"A beauty, indeed…and the rune design were meticulously engraved as well…who would know that Rin had this much knowledge in her." If possible, Scathach wanted to test this new Shirou even more now.

Dinner then came about with everyone sharing a nice meal together, before Ritsuka and Mash went into their tents to get some sleep.


===Next Day===

As soon as the sun rose in the desert, the team from Chaldea had also risen as well.

Everyone got already accustomed to the new addition to the team, miss Scathach. Aside from chatting extensively with Arturia, the Lancer legend had decided to take a look at Mash and Ritsuka, the two let's say humans of his entire debacle. She could attest to Mash's strength in her limbs, prana capacity and overall capability, but Ritsuka was quite ordinary in her right mind. Despite it all, this situation would have to be dealt with by them, in the end. She was here to teach her student some manners, not effectively join Chaldea's side in fixing the singularities.

It also came as a surprise to her when a new voice echoed in the clearing…she was somewhat familiar to modern technology thanks to her staying in Fuyuki with her version of Shirou and the others, but this method of communication was unheard of.

"Good morning everyone, I trust you all had a lovely rest?" Romani's voice echoed from Ritsuka and Mash's communication device. "Miss Scathach, I appreciate a legend such as yourself to help us in fixing this singular…."

"Like I said before, I am only here to put a leash in that old dog…I shall leave the job of fixing the singularity as you call it to the capable hands of you all." Scathach said, interrupting Romani in mid speech.

"Oh…of course, certainly. Well, we appreciate the help even so. Now, I managed to intercept a coded message that came from the King of Invasion. It seems the lion head was possessed by something and it's quite short tempered…well, more than usual."

"Did something happen to Thomas Edison, Doctor? Could it be that the Celts decided to attack him?" Ritsuka questioned, but Scathach answered the second question.

"As it seems that Medb is calling the shots here, she wouldn't waste her resources with a simple and quite allow me to say naive tactic to win this war. Despite the fact that I despise the woman, I can at least respect her resourcefulness."

"Regardless of whose responsibility was it, I believe I should go and see the patient."

Nightingale said with enough medical authority that made everyone look at each other in question.

"Ah Nightingale, who are you referring to?" Nightingale turned to Mash.

"Thomas Eidson, who else…the King of Inventions is ill, so I must attend to him." Jeanne took a step forward, in order to question the notion of them going back there.

"The last time we went there, he threatened to kill us. I don't believe that us going there will warrant a different outcome."

Robin was busy scratching his head, wondering why they were even following her. Nightingale wouldn't back down, however.

"This is why I was summoned to this singularity…to heal the wounded. Not attending to the patients would go against my very nature."

"Shirou, Arturia, what are your thoughts?" the servant couple turned to Ritsuka as Arturia shared her opinion first.

"This war has two fronts to take care of, Ritsuka. We are still due to determine if Thomas Edison is friend or foe…that being said, you can't just leave him roam free without at least checking up on his moves. Us going there would serve to get intel."

"Aside from that, I don't think that Nightingale would still follow us, should we decide not to go."

Everyone looked at the nurse servant to confirm Shirou's humorous suspicion, before the woman openly nodded.

"Like I said, it's within my nature to tend to the wounded. Indeed, should master decide to take different directions, this is where we part ways."

Mash looked to Ritsuka for his final decision.

"Well, I guess we can go check on the Presi-king's situation. However, Karna is still there and may attack us, not to mention that Edison can order his robots to attack us like last time." Mash smiled and approached the teen master, offering him her support.

"Jeanne and I can protect you, Senpai. Right now, we have bigger numbers in terms of servants. Karna is strong, but he can't go against us all."

"Right, then, let's go there. Perhaps, after Nightingale heals whatever it is that is possessing him, we can convince him to join our cause and fix this singularity." Some would say it was wishful thinking, others would call naivety, but it could be said that Ritsuka's youthful drive was inspiring, at least to Mash and Fuu, who always stood either on Ritsuka or Mash's shoulder. As the last master of Chaldea, the servants are bonded with him through Chaldea. Without him, they wouldn't be able to fix the singularity and thus humanity for that matter.

Scathach, throughout the conversation, merely observed it with a relaxed smile as she followed the group.


===Houston, TX===

It didn't take long for the Chaldea group of Servants to cross the desert and reach their destination.

And as soon as they arrived, the mechanic infantry of course blocked their path. Of course, that wouldn't stop Nightingale from reaching the patient, so the mad nurse servant had simply pushed through the mechanic infantry punching her way through it and using her pistol as well, until she had carved a whole in the building wall, making everyone from Chaldea just look at her back trail wide-eyed and speechless. Even Scathach looked flabbergasted at the situation and she had lived long enough to see many strange situations. Still, soon, Karna got involved as did the rest of the Mechanic infantry, so they needed to get a move on and protect the mad nurse servant from being scorched by the power of the sun. They managed to reach the main halls where Edison and Helena were at.

"What's the meaning of this travesty!? First you all fail to assassinate Medb and now you ally with them to kill me?!" Edison's lion roar echoed in the hallway.

"Allying with Celts…for sure, your illness is speaking volumes if that thought goes through your head, Edison. We are here to rid you of your illness, that's all." Edison, Helena and Karna looked at Nightingale with strange surprise.

"Illness!? What madness do you speak? My body is perfect, my mind works non-stop…the technology we develop here is cutting edge…you dare look at me…look at my body and call it an illness?"

Everyone else stood at attention at the conversation, while Shirou and Arturia focused on Karna's moves. Scathach did as well as she was marveling at the man's golden spear.

"Yes, I look at you and see unnatural substances working against you. History showed of Thomas Edison as a man of pure wisdom, an entrepreneur, a man known for this intellect above all else. There was never a mention in history of the Edison having the head of a lion or that gigantic strength you mistakenly call your own. Every aspect of the appearance you have now is complete illogical, Mr. Edison." The lion head looked aghast at the nurse servant, who spoke the truth with the tact of a misgoverned train. "All of that which you have now does not belong to you! A strange substance that is pushing you into becoming King."

"Ms. Nightingale, you're saying that…" Nightingale turned to Mash's wonder and nodded.

"Indeed, Edison's desire does not stern from himself…" With the bomb delivered, Helena and Karna turned to look towards their leader, wondering what he would say next. The lion head turned pensive for a while, looking at the nurse servant.

"My name is Thomas Alva Edison. I am the Presi-king of the United States of America…past, present and future. The successive presidents of this nation indeed granted me power. It was only logical, in the end. They came to the conclusion that even if they were all summoned as servants, they would inevitably lose to the Celts. So, they concentrated all of their power and effort into a single individual. Not a president, but a hero with international fame. They all entrusted me with the future of this country, to the future of America!"

In the end, the answer became clear to everyone, especially to Nightingale.

"So we had discovered the cause of Edison's illness." Nightingale turned to the lion servant and already saw him wobbling…indeed, the metaphorical punch to the head was working, but still there was more to it, before the knockout. "You are a state of made up of many races, equivalent to being children of many nations, which is why you have an obligation to save the world. Yet you divert your eyes and try, instead, to save only your own nation, which is why Edison suffers. That is also why you were defeated by Nichola Tesla, your fellow inventor." That was the mighty bonk in the head that made the lion head servant fall down and suffer in extreme pain and anguish.

Helena and Karna both sighed in dismay at the blunt words being directed at their leader, which hurt the man even more than if Nightingale were to punch him in the face with the inflated fist of hers.

For a while, Edison lied down, with barely a pulse, but breathing. Those present heard a mix of heavy labored breaths and animalistic pained sounds and even the rest from Chaldea became worried about him.

"Ah, is he okay, Ms. Nightingale?" the nurse turned to Ritsuka and snorted.

"Yes, he will live, the virus was strong, so it took a more excruciating treatment to cure it."

It took a while, but the big guy eventually got up with Karna's assistance, before focusing on the nurse servant.

"….I admit it, Florence Nightingale…the successive kings granted me power, but logically that also pointed out to the fact that I couldn't win against the Celts. It seems indeed that I strayed from the path just a little bit. Me, Thomas Alva Edison, wandering in a maze filled with foolish thoughts…it's true that I was suffering from an unknown illness and for that I sincerely thank you, Ms. Nightingale. However, now I am at a loss regarding what to do from here on out." Ritsuka was looking at the big man, waiting for some big epiphany to befall him, when Shirou placed a hand on his shoulder.

"What…Shirou…"

The redhead samurai servant just smiled and nudged Ritsuka onward.

Arturia smiled at her fiancée's thinking, while Scathach observed this new Shirou and the similarities with her own Shirou.

Ritsuka took the hint and took a step forward.

"Mr. Edison…" the lion head servant turned to look at the human master and Ritsuka continued. "If you joined our cause, we can unite our efforts to defeat Medb…your mechanized infantry proved to hold them for this long. Without it, this nation would have been lost and the singularity would never be fixed. Right now, we need to work together to save this nation and save humankind form extinction. To correct history and not allow the sacrifices of many to be wasted…like Geronimo once said. Your inventions, your discoveries, further improved humanity's discoveries and growth." Edison's attention was picked as Ritsuka finished the speech. "All of everyone's efforts throughout history, all of your efforts, will only remain as such, though, if we are able to fix the singularities and recover the Holy Grail. So what do you say?"

Mash could feel the excitement and growing desire to witness everything in front of her.

Above all else, though, she remembered when Senpai offered her his hand, when she believed she would no longer be able to live.

"Wise and powerful words from someone so young….indeed, young master! I am Thomas Alva Edison, one cornerstone of the foundation of American prosperity! In that case, I shall strive to create an invention that shall truly save this world!" Edison roared throughout the hallways, before turning to Ritsuka. "as your servant, of course, young master. As of right now, all of my facilities are yours to command." Mash showed a full smile at the situation, hopeful that they could now finally finish this and recover the fifth Holy Grail.

"It's my pleasure, Mr. Edison!" Ritsuka said so with his fist raised, showing great enthusiasm.

"Now, everyone, please gather around and have a seat! I call upon this meeting to order! Ms. Blavatsky, start brewing us some coffee and keep'em coming! We won't leave this meeting until a suitable battle plan is convened."


Author Note

Ok, that's enough for now. I know I said that I planned on finishing the singularity in this chapter, but it was getting too long and I didn't even start the final fight yet. Worry not, however, because next chapter I shall focus at least ¾ of the chapter in the war and then one nice little scene of them back in Chaldea with something that two characters said to one another in my other story Fate Shadow Spear. I won't spoil the surprise ahead of time, however, but it shall wrap things up rather nicely in my humble opinion.

For those who wished to see more of Shirou and Scathach together, worry not. Next chapter, I plan to focus on them, most of all.

Please tell me your thoughts.

Lastly, I have recently created a P-atreon account for those who wish to follow my stories more personally, sending suggestions and occasional polls to help me.

Also for those who wish to make a pledge there, it will be highly appreciated.
