Dreams again, every morning.

Hey there Kiritsugu!  You're the main protagonist in Fate/zero right?!

So today Tohsaka forced me to go on a date with her for some reason, ugh.  Yeah I don't care Tohsaka stop being annoying and loud and stuff.  I mean Shirou brought Saber on a date but it actually served a purpose, you just seem to want to have "fun".  Well anyway, since my limbs aren't shitty anymore the three of us head out into Shinto and par-tay.

Yeah I don't know either.

Then we eat lunch under the bridge and have an obligatory CG.

Hi.  Yeah, I really didn't care for any of this.  Damn Sundays.  I guess it's like the beginning of most Higurashi games so whatever.  Ha ha it's comedy and lighthearted!  That better mean trouble ahead at least.

Anywho, we head back home after a long, "fun" day only to see that Shirou's house has lost its boundary field.  Now isn't that weird?  We three enter cautiously and by that I mean Shirou dashes in as fucking fast as possible as Saber and Tohsaka try to follow while yelling.

Only to encounter Caster with Fuji-Nee hostage.

:\  Uh oh.

Caster wants me for my unique attributes and weak skills.  That way she can control me easily but also take advantage of my power, let alone having Saber on her side.  She asks me to join her and I...

Do the shounen hero shit and refuse.  I was guessing that Fujimura's head would explode and Shirou will realize that refusing isn't an option.  However, the inane/crazy happens.


I raise my left arm and tell Caster she can take it if she just leaves right now without Fujimura.  She laughs of course, but decides to go along with it.  She says she'll have a difficult time transferring it her and the atmosphere gets really tense as well because betrayal can happen at any moment.  I walk up slowly to Caster and she pulls out the zagger.  She says she's going to cut off my left hand and then do as I said like negotiated however she suddenly arcs the zagger towards my chest!

In a flash of lightning Saber dashes forward fully armed to counter Caster at bullet speed.  Caster backs up a bit and the hand touching Fujimura's face beings to glow red.  Shirou watches in horror as Saber won't make it in time.  In a rage Shirou burns up his last Command Spell and orders Saber to stop immediately.

She instantly stops completely dumbfounded

and


...

...

Caster doesn't lose this opportunity.  She drops Fujimura and plunges the zagger into Saber's chest.  Saber drops on the ground.

Caster goes on the explain what her zagger actually does.  It's her Noble Phantasm called 'Rule Breaker' and it allows her to form a contract with any Servant she afflicts it on.  Suddenly Caster's right hand glows and three Command Spells appear on it.  The contract between Saber and Shirou is over.  Caster now has her Master Kuzuki, and her own two Servants Assassin and Saber.

Wow.

Since Shirou was such a good boy Caster picks up Fujimura and throws her at Shirou, who catches her instinctively.  Shirou and Tohsaka still don't seem to be able to react properly at all.  Finally Tohsaka realizes what's happening here.  She realizes that Caster will most likely try to kill her now since she's the only one her that isn't being "let go".

Caster orders Saber to kill Archer's Master, and to also kill anybody who gets in the way.  Saber refuses profusely.  Caster knew this would probably happen as she scoffs and uses her first Command Spell.  Saber starts wobbling to her feet, resisting the entire time.  She's being controlled by the Command Spell!

Tohsaka tries to back away, looking shocked however Saber suddenly dashes forward with her invisible sword armed.

Blood.

Saber's sword has pierced right through Shirou's shoulder, right next to his left collar bone.  He grunts in pain and he's still carrying the unconscious Fujimura.  Saber is shaking uncontrollably as her armor makes cackling noises.  She slowly begins to pull the sword out to Caster's amazement.  Her level-A magic resistance is able to resist the ultimate Command Spells!  However, it's not that easy as it looks like Saber will vomit blood at any moment.

Tohsaka grabs my hand and the three of us run away.

Shirou at this point is completely out of it, completely.  His shoulder is bleeding, he's carrying Fujimura, and Tohsaka is dragging him by the hand.  They run all the way back to Tohsaka's house.  Tohsaka tells the empty Shirou to put Fujimura in the guest bed when suddenly Shirou just collapses onto the ground.

INTERLUDE 11-1

Tohsaka and Archer talk with each other.  Archer puts Shirou in Tohsaka's bed I think and Tohsaka performs some medicine on Shirou's shoulder.  Unlike before, it's not healing.  Shirou doesn't have Saber's sheathe power anymore since they don't have a contract now.  Shirou is no longer a Master, kind of how Shinji was until Kotomine became so generous.  Archer says they're better off leaving him and Tohsaka agrees.  It's just not possible for Shirou to do anything now when he can't even Wolverine regenerate anymore.  The two leave the other two unconscious folk in their home before leaving to attack Caster.  They decided to try to attack Caster before she gets back to the Temple and also before she gets full control of Saber.

INTERLUDE OUT

Shirou wakes up to an unfamiliar ceiling.  He's completely losing himself right now, the pain in his left collar bone plus what just happened is driving him mad.  He tries to get up and out of this room only to collapse a dresser he grabbed for support onto himself.  While trying to fix everything because Shirou likes to be a nice guy he stumbles upon the pendant Tohsaka used to heal Lancer's stab wound all that time ago.  Shirou doesn't know what to think of this and curses him.  He curses himself and stumbles out of the house in pain.

Somehow, he is able to sense where Tohsaka is at, and find himself going up the skyscraper in the city.  He barges the roof door open and spots a shocked Tohsaka & Archer (well not Archer, he's never shocked).  Tohsaka asks how he found her but Shirou doesn't care about that.  He demands to help somehow however Tohsaka rejects him.  In a stern voice Tohsaka says that Shirou doesn't need to fight anymore.  She tells him to find shelter in the Church if you want to and then proceeds to jump off the roof.

But Archer is there so she's not pulling an Ange or anything serious.  She'll probably be safe on landing, probably.  Well anyway.

INTERLUDE 11-2

Funny enough we get to see Caster and Assassin talking at the top of the stairs to the Ryudou Temple (where else would Assassin be anyway, really).  Obviously Tohsaka wasn't able to catch Caster and Caster goes on about their plans and stuff.  Since they have all these pawns and pieces now they're going to move their base since the Ryudou Temple is getting much too activity and she has enough magical energy from the whole gog damn city anyway.  Assassin is like whatever since he just wants to "fulfill a promise" and doesn't really care what happens.  The interlude ends with Caster laughing like a mad women as it echos over the whole mountain.

INTERLUDE OUT

Shirou finds himself back home.  He doesn't even remember how he got here, he's just there.  Shirou falls over into his futon finally.  He is all alone in the house, there is no boundary field, he's not even a Master anymore.  He stares at the ceiling and hold his wound with his hand.  In a determined voice Shirou says he is going to heal this wound over this one single night and he will protect the people he loves.

Although I'm not sure how well that will work out.  :\
