3 weeks before the school trip

Artoria was, for lack of a better term nervous, today after all would be the day she would meet this worlds version of Shirou's parents, she had never gotten the chance to meet his parents in the past when they were still master and servant they were dead after all.

Shirou noticing this made an expression of surprise before smiling with compassion and grasping her hand and squeezing it, as they were doing this in public people smiled and some old people laughed lightly before saying something about young love.

Not long after this they had arrived, to the reiki estate it was small about the same size as this worldline's emiya estate. Shirou led her to the door with a small smile opening it saying that he was home. Hearing this his parents came to greet him, "Ah Shirou! You're bac-..." his mother said, she was a young looking woman with vibrant red hair almost as virbrant as her son's own alas she had brown eyes. In contrast to her husband who had brown eyes and golden brown eyes.

"Shirou... who's this?" His mother asked.

"Ah okaa-san this is my girlfriend," he said innocently in contrast to his wife Shirou's father looked at Artoria smiled and muttered something about this being his son's type.

"I see, and what is her name Shirou?" The man of the household asked..

But before Shirou could answer his father Artoria answered first, "My name is Artoria Emiya I'm pleased to meet you okaa-san, otou-san," she said while bowing.

"I like her," Shirou's mother said before looking to Artoria and asking the fateful question, "would you like to join us for dinner Artoria-san?"

Without hesitation, in hopes of having Shirou's food not that she'd admit it, she answered, "Yes I'd love to."

"Okaa-san can I please, please cook food today," Shirou practically begged looking at her with puppy dog eyes and threatening to pot and cry if she didn't alow him too.

"Uhh, fine..." the woman acquiesced before looking at her son with serious eyes, "but, your father is looking over you to make sure you don't hurt yourself."

"Haaai," Shirou acquiesced, unknown to the both of them Artoria smiled serenely in her assurance that she would get to eat Shirou's food once more.

10 minutes later

Artoria was having a rather insightful conversation with her future mother in law, but it was less like a conversation and more like an interrogation where the elder Reiko was asking Artoria a multitude of questions ranging from her grades to the names and phone number of her parents, however that all came to a pause when they both smelled an absolutely heavenly scent. Unknowingly to the two woman they were both drooling, heavily.

And then after they had smelled the serene scent they heard Shirou's voice, "Dinner's ready!" He had said and so they went to the dining room where they found the man of the house sitting patiently for them so that they could eat, and so they had sat down and then Shirou came with the rest of the food placed it down and sat next to Artoria. "Itadakimase!" The household said in unison before digging in and the reaction was instant the elder Reiko's both paused with dumbfounded expression on their faces before they both looked at each other and agreed on one thing, 'Shirou was going to make them their food at least once a week.' Meanwhile Artoria was in heaven, it had been so long since she had had Shirou's delicacies and so she didn't care that she was making a dumb smile while chewing, Shirou on the other hand was happy that his family and the love of his life got to enjoy his food and so he smiled.


The day of the school trip

8:00 am

Walking into the bus that they were going to take so that they could go to said school trip Shirou sat next to Artoria who was sitting at a window seat. Hearing somebody sit down next to her, she looked to her side saw Shirou and smiled, "Shirou, Shirou! Did you know that we're going to be staying in a hotel?" The king of knights reborn asked excitedly to her beloved.

"We're staying overnight?" Shirou questioned surprised, he hadn't heard of this.

Artoria in response nodded excitedly, "Yeah I'm with some other girls in the class!"

"Ah, I see I guess that makes sense," he said.

And so the bus trip to Kuwana was now underway.


Once they had arrived Shirou had to wake up Artoria as she had fallen asleep on his shoulder at around the half way point of the journey, the boy just simply not having the heart to wake her up before when she had looked so peaceful, alas he had to if he wanted to avoid an earful from the teacher.

So shaking her awake slightly Shirou gazed upon her waking face the way she was blinking will waking up with a confused face before gazing upon Shirou's face and smiling peacefully before leaning in to try and give him a kiss. Shirou put his arms on her shoulders and stopped her before she could he could feel the glares from both the boys and girls piercing his back both clearly for very different reasons.

"Damn that lucky Reiko, if I was in his position a kiss would be the least I would do to her!" A boy a bit younger than the one he directed it to said earning a scandalized 'DUDE' from his friends.

Meanwhile the girls weren't doing much better in the opposite regard more or less incensed at Artoria for being in a relationship with Shirou more than anything else, "Damn that lucky Emiya to be in a relationship with Reiko-san it should have been me!" She said while bitting her nail and barely holding in her anger.

Shirou could only sigh he hadn't expected he and Artoria to become so popular in the school in general, whether it be as athletes, students and as a relationship. As athletes it was rather obvious, the archery club had tried to make him into the captain from a young age in hope that he would win them a championship, the kendo club once they found out that Artoria was nigh unbeatable they had also tried to make her the kendo club captain of course they had refused they did this out of passion not for fame.

Alas they were popular yet unpopular to members of their own gender, it seems like no matter what happens people will somehow always be jealous of another person if they aren't good of heart.


When they had arrived in the museum there was many things, paintings, sculptures and most surprisingly swords, made by the legendary Senji Muramasa himself. Subconsciously Shirou analyzed said swords yet somehow someway he felt like it was... analyzing him in... turn? Alas Shirou's confusion did nothing to stop Artoria's excitement at seeing said objects, it may have been a quaint little experience for people that were born in this era but for the legendary king of knights who lived during the fifth century it was a big occasion. Her eyes sparkled like little stars whenever she looked at something an expression of awe on her face.

Whenever she saw something she didn't know she'd turn towards Shirou and ask him to explain it for her, of course being the good partner that he was he would explain what it was. but when she saw something she didn't know and turned around to ask him what it was, she was met with a blank face as if his mind wasn't there.


"What the?" Shirou said once he realized that he was no longer in the real world and that he was instead in his unlimited blade works? "Why... am I here?" The boy questioned, before hearing the sound of steel on steel, the sound of a hammer striking down on metal, it was a sound he was intimately familiar with after all in his search for his beloved he had picked up many a trade primarily blacksmithing in a attempt to reduce the cost of his projection. It worked albeit barely. Stepping towards the sound he found a forging hut in his blade works, "What is that doing here?" He questioned incredulously.

"Another failure," a man said, his voice was hoarse as if he had no water to give himself. Then the voice stepped out of the hut preparing to throw the sword only to be met with Shirou, his figure was incredibly similar to Shirou looking like he did during the prime of his life, "Well I'll be damned a descendant of mine? I guess that is who this world belongs to," the man said surprised, "Well nice to meet ya sport names Senji, Senji Muramasa."

"Muramasa?" Shirou asked in incredibility.

"The one and only," the man nodded with a smile on his face.

"Wait, wait, wait what do you mean I'm your descendant," Shirou questioned.

Muramasa in contrast only looked confused, "I mean what I said you're my descendant."

"Huh," the face Shirou was making would have made somebody laugh had they seen it.

Muramasa only snickered before responding, "I said what I said, you, sport are my descendant and I've come to give you a gift."

"A gift?" Shirou questioned.

"Yes, a gift one that you shall need for the trials to come, as while you may be powerful you do not know how to control you're powers yet, I can albeit temporarily if you need it make you're body jump in time to a point where you're control will be impeccable and you shall be nigh unbeatable. You shall be able to take the fiercest of dragons."

"Oh, how can you even do that?" Shirou questioned.

"Haah, did you even listen when Merlin explained the situation or did he not get to the point where the entire planet is trying to prevent the possible destruction of the multiverse and to do that the planet, more specifically, Alaya has decided to contact Aoko Aozaki and she, when I give the signal, will push your current body to its prime," Muramasa explained to the hero of justice.

"I... I should have known," Shirou sighed out, "Well can you just give me your blessing or does time pass extremely quickly at the moment?"

"Yeah, Yeah just give me one second it will only have been like 5 seconds in the outside world," The old man in a young body waved his hand in denial before continuing, "come close, let me put my hand on you and you'll have my blessing."

"Okay," In three steps he had reached the blacksmith, "So what are going to dOOOO," before he could finish his sentence Muramasa put his hand on him and gave him his blessing. The pain was excruciating it felt like molten lava was passing through his veins, swords stabbed through his flesh alas sadly for the reborn Emiya this pain was familiar at least before he was reborn.

"Boom and that should do the trick," The spirit said to the boy, "What's wrong with ya get your ass of the ground young man, all I did was give ya my blessing and now you're panting. I know for a fact you've gone through worse.

"Do you know how long it's been since I've done actual combat?" Shirou questionned.

"Oh I don't know 10 years or somethin' that's your current age right?" Muramasa intoned not completely sure.

"Haah, lucky guess," The boy said to the old man.

"Cheeky little brat, hm seems like our times up," The old man smiled, "Good luck on descendant mine, you better not mess, continue the line you hear, I don't want you to be my last descendant you hear me!"


"Shirou, Shirou are you ok?" She asked right in front of his face looking at his eyes that were once so vibrant appeared dull, "Maybe if I kiss him he'll wake up," coming to her conclusion she proceeds to lean in to give him a kiss. But right when she was about to kiss him his eyes regained clarity right when her face was right in front of his.

"Aah," her face started to redden, "S-S-Shirou I can explain," she said.

"S-saber, uhh I think we should many instead go check out the other areas," his face was redder than a tomato.

"Y-Yeah Shirou, I think we should," she said her face also redder than a tomato.

Unknown to the couple they weren't the only people to be in said exhibit and the people who were there were rather livid, "Damn you Reiko!!! To have such a cute girlfriend who was just going to kiss you!" A boy said, "I completely agree damn that Reiko!! It should have been me!!"another boy said.

Alas unknown to both the couple and to the two boys crying over the unfairness of life there was also two girls who were also spying on the couple, "Damn you Emiya to be so close to Reiko-san," A young girl growled out in anger, "You're so right it should have been me not her!"

And so the couple started to walk and explore other expositions, there wasn't that much that happened during the day until Shirou told Artoria that he needed to tell her something. And so they went to a secluded segment of the museum to talk about something rather important, unknown to the two of them they were being watched by somebody who couldn't care less of what they were doing all he wanted was to report to his employer.

"Hello? Mr. Claudas I've found your 'property'" the man stated.

"Good, good you're doing great Japan right?" Claudas disgusting voice resounded through the phone.

"Yes Japan sir, more specifically she came from Kuoh town," the man stated.

"Good thank you for your service, you're dismissed," Claudas intoned.

"Of course," the man intoned of course deep down he was honestly disgusted with himself, telling a grown ass man where his 'property' was, after all it wasn't actually property but a young ten year old girl who probably ran away from home to escape him, sadly if he wasn't paid as much as he was he would have turned down the job the problem was that if he found her he would be paid 2 million dollars. And sadly 2 million is a lot of money he had to do the job.


Authors note

Yo long time no see sorry for taking so long g to update this time I will admit that I may have taken a bit too long to update especially when I said that I would try to update as much as possible until the end of summer then stop for the school year but I took what 5 days to make this chapter so I'm sorry. On another note though damn 157 favorites and 237 follows I in all honestly never ever expected that so thank you all for liking this story that in my honest opinion is extremely mid, like very mid.

So I thank you all for liking my story.

So I have an announcement for a couple of chapters I shall write an omake whether they continue or not is well it's up in the air.

So let's start with my answers and or responses to reviews.

Guest: Artoria will be in the middle as her lancer form is basically because rhongo wanted her to be the perfect goddess to use it and so, in my understanding, it transformed her into what it deemed as her preferred figure. So she will basically be in the middle by the age of 18 a bit shorter than Morgan but having basically her proportions since Morgan while buxom is still much smaller compared to the lancers.

Guest: And you apparently didn't read my first AN In which I basically said they may or may not be a bit OOC and they may want to have their time together be a bit more private.

FallenSage: Thanks

And now it's time for the first omake which is basically an alternate path of the conversation with Muramasa.


Omake #1

"...You shall be able to take the fiercest of dragons." Muramasa screamed out.

"You say that like I can't already take the fiercest of dragons old man," Shirou responded coolly.

"Hmph," the old man snorted before looking at the 10 year child, " you can barely even take them in a fight!"

Shirou remained unfazed looking at Muramasa as if he had misunderstood his statement.

"You... you were talking about in a fight right?" He asked confused, Shirou merely started to smirk slowly giving Muramasa a look as if he was enjoying Muramasa being confused.

"In... In a fight... Right?" He asked once more.

Shirou's smirk merely grew.

"In a fight RIGHT!!" He asked panicked.

"PLEASE TELL ME I'M RIGHT!!!"

Finaly Shirou decided to speak, "I already take the fiercest of dragons every night old man."

Muramasa looked scandalized at his descendant before asking a question, "For how long then?"

This time it was Shirou's turn to look embarrassed once he realized that his plan had backfired on him.


And that was the omake I know a bit lackluster especially when it has to deal with such an overdone cliche in anime, imo.

But I hope you all appreciated the chapter and have a good day or night, idk when you read this after all.
