Berserker came dashing up to Ichigen, a giant smile plastered on her face. "Master, come play with me! Kuroh's no fun!"

Kuroh came a few steps behind her, panting. "I can't keep up with your energy!"

"I will soon," came Ichigen's quick reply, giving the girl a mere glance. But that didn't seem likely with the amount of paperwork he had to do.

Suddenly every muscle in his body tensed up and he froze in place. What's going on?! I can't move!

Yellow eyes were narrowed and disappointment bordering on anger painted itself on Berserker's face. Tears began spilling from her eyes, but her expression remained unchanged. "...You just lied, right?" She spat out the words as if they were poison. Her fan materialized in her hand and the air around her began to simmer with heat. She unfolded her fan and the air ignited, the little Servant being cocooned in red-orange flames. Ichigen wondered if he imagined some blue being mixed in. "Why do people keep lying to me?" The King figured out Berserker was most likely using a binding spell. He couldn't even speak to issue an order with his Command Seal.

"Master Ichigen!" Kuroh exclaimed. He pulled out his katana and charged at Berserker, imbuing his aura in the weapon and swinging it down on her head. But she simply raised her hand, catching the blade with ease all without even glancing at the teen. She kicked him back effortlessly before he could even react and a circle of fire walled him in. Kuroh suddenly reminded himself that despite her appearance Berserker's the most powerful one here. She may be a Cavalry Class but that doesn't mean she isn't dangerous.

The Servant slowly walked over to Ichigen. The earth seemed to tremble with each step she took and scalding heat pressed more on the King as the girl approached, her glare intense enough to burn a hole in someone. "You don't deserve this." Her fan slapped the back of Ichigen's right hand, yet the appendage didn't budge. It suddenly felt like someone was pressing a burning branding iron into the King's flesh there.

After what felt like an eternity later, the fan pulled away and the skin on the hand was completely unmarked, no sign at all of the Seraphim Command Seal.

The fire around Berserker didn't go away. Rather the flames turned blue and the temperature rose even higher.

"It's time to punish the liar," Berserker growled. "Samadhi Through Transforming Flames!"

A twister of azure fire enveloped Berserker and an Eastern dragon of blue flames emerged. The last thing Ichigen saw was a gaping maw bearing down on him.
