(After Gabriela have managed to make the contract with Rogue Archer)
Now I feel my mana being shared between Saber and Archer. It gives me a slight "discomfort" but it doesn't bother me at all, it's allpsychological.
Gabriela
— "Now... What should we do?"
Saber
— "Well, we should find more Rogue Servants."
Gabriela
— "More?? Uuugghhhh..."
Rouge Archer
— "Honestly, I agree the more allies the better, but we also can't overload the Master's mana. She's not made of iron."
Saber
— "Yeah, you are right... But since we're already here, let's continue exploring the city and find other informations."
Gabriela
— (mumbling)... Good gried..."
And in the blink of an eye, Saber and Archer hide their spirit forms, and we continue walking around and maybe with luck we can find other Rogue Servants out there. The city continue calm in the morning, nothing special. Some cars are passing by me, people going to their works - nothing out of usual. The morning wind begins to die down as the summer heat begins to hit my skin, even on this big ass fog. I honestly think I should get a tan this summer once this war reach the end. The only thing I have to do is to survive until there.
But now that I think about it, I still don't know Saber well, I don't know who he is, or rather, who he was in the past. Diana said it wasn't a good idea to do that, but having a little information here and there doesn't hurt; besides, I need to know who I'm dealing with. Same thing with Archer. Maybe once we finish this walking I will do that and talk with both. .And now I understand why history lessons are important... So I could have an idea who is Saber and Archer, but a little adventure and curiosity never hurts...
...
(Two hours later)
We've been walking for a while and nothing... Zero. No servants or anything. Maybe is better going baclk home. Maybe I should go out again at night. It's risky, yes, but I have to. I just can't expose myself so much.
Gabriela (bored)
— "Guys, look... I think is better we going home. We've been here for ages and nothing. Maybe we'll come back tonight. What do you think?"
Rogue Archer
— "It's too risky, you know that? I think it would be better if you didn't do that. Especially for someone who is a newbie, I don't really trust that, no offense."
Saber (noble, calm and determined)
— "Master is right. We should go out tonight. It's the perfect time to investigate. I am a knight of God and of Master."
Rogue Archer (confused)
— "Aren't you being a bit... naive? And a Knight of God? Thats a bold declaration."
Gabriela
— "I mean... Obviously we're going to go out carefully, we're not going to go out like crazy."
Rogue Archer
— "I am against the idea but if Master wants it, I will not insist."
With everyone in agreement, we returned home. I walked on the streets I already passed before. It didn't take long to get home either since Im a quick paced person.
Once I spoted my house between fog, I take out my home keys doing the usual jiggle metal it does, but I felt a massive huge tingling all over my body when barely I step in. I immediately become tense and scared.
Gabriela
— "What the- What is this?"
Saber (Becoming visible again)
— "Looks like someone put a Bounded Field here"
Gabriela
— "Bounded Field?"
Rogue Archer (Becoming visible again)
— "It's basically a magical barrier but who put this here?"
Saber
— "I might know who put this Bounded Field..."
Then my house door opens... And Diana appears at the door.
Diana (with a silly smug)
— "Hoh~ The housewife arrived... And with new company."
Gabriela
— "WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE, YOU MIDGET?!"
Saber (suprised)
— "Oh? Is Rider's Master."
Rogue Archer
— "I wasn't expecting a new ally like other Master."
Diana
— "Hehe~ Let's say your grandpa was kind to me, Gabi. Now get inside,I have new informations."
Gabriela
— "This is the last and only time you will enter in my house!!"
I get inside where I see grandpa at the kitchen cooking something that smelled good as always, Rider was on the couch like she was at home with that cheeky smile and- WTF?! Who is that Native American?! My eyes widden when I see a Native American at my house standing there like a bodyguard. I never saw one (obviously) but damn he looks cool!
Gabriela (flabbergasted)
— "Diana... Who is he?"
Diana
— "Well, he is Rogue Rider!" (with a smile)
Saber
— "Another Rider? You sure you love Rider-class."
Rogue Archer
— "He seems... very quiet... but a reliable one."
Rogue Rider
— (very quiet and serious) "..."
Diana (with a smile)
— "Dont mind him, he is like this, but he is a good person. Now you tell me Gabi, who is this?" (looking at Rogue Archer)
Rogue Archer (with a smile)
— "Well - Im an Archer class servant and Pseudo-Servant."
Diana
— "Oooooh- A Pseudo-Servant! I never saw one!"
Rogue Archer (blushing a little)
— "Well, theres always a first time, right? Besides you look cute."
Diana
— "Bwah-!" (blushing)
Rider
— "She is right, you look cute."
Rogue Archer (playful, because of Ayako)
— "And silly."
Gabriela
— "Now, can you all stop yapping and start explaining what informations you have, Diana?"
Diana (composing herself)
— "Right, right, sorry. So, yesterday, after I left your house I was coming back to my house. On the middle I saw the Caster's Master and his Master together. Caster was a priest and his Master was a little girl, probably a teenager. Rider and I were shocked when we saw that, but at least we now know one of the Masters. But We was even more shocked when I discovered the supervisor of this war."
Gabriela
— "The supervisor?"
Diana
— "Yes, every Holy Grail War have always a supervisor. I forgot to explain that yesterday.."
Gabriela
— "Ok... And what's so special about this supervisor?"
Diana
— "First of all, he is white - extremly white like a ghost as his hair, tall as hell, wears a full black clothes, black gloves. And he said he was... A Dead Apostle Ancestor and his name was Fabro Rowan. I have never felt so much fear and chills in my life."
Rider
— "I felt chills too. I can tell he is not just anyone ou there."
Gabriela
— "Well that looks... weird and scary. A Caster which is a priest, a teenager Master and a Dead whatever of Jesus Christ. And what is that Dead thing he is?"
Diana
— "Well I wish knew that too but I dont what is a Dead Apostle Ancestor."
Gabriela
— "Hey grandpa, do you know what is a Dead Apostle?"
Grandpa João (confused)
— "A what?"
Gabriela
— "Yeah, nevermind."
Grandpa João
— "Well... If I had my Servant... She would help a lot..."
Everyone (confused)
— "Your Servant...?"
Diana
— "Who was your Servant, by the way...?
Grandpa João
— "Thats a subject for another day. Let's not shy away from the topic."
Diana
— "Right... Anyway, his was what I wanted to pass on to you, Gabi. Honestly, I dont trust that supervisor."
Rogue Rider
— "Clearly the supervisor is planning something."
Rogue Rider's words carried a weight that made everyone look at him.
Rogue Rider (serious)
— "Not everyone isa supervisor for a Holy Grail War, but for someone so unusual to become a supervisor is even more suspicious."
Rogue Archer (agreeing with Rogue Rider)
— "He has a point. Whatever this Fabro Rowan is planning, it's probably not something good."
Saber
— "Well...Only by investigating will we find out."
I dont know why but this whole thing is already giving me chills. A suspecious weird guy as a supersivor and Dead Apostle Ancestor. This is totally a different whole world for me. Maybe... What if I ask mom about this? But she probably won't answer since she's "busy", so I will have to find by myself
Gabriela
— "What we can do as I said is going out tonight and find for answers or even find Rogue Servants. I don't know if you want to come Diana."
Diana (thinking)
— "Well... it seems a little dangerous but I can give a shot. Alright, tonight we are going out." (happy)
Gabriela
— "I don't know what the joke is about this..."
Diana
— "Oops~ I got a bit excited."
Rider face palms with Diana is silliness. At least there's reinforcements for the end of the day, now what to expect I don't know but I have a little feeling that... We're going to find bad company.
...
Having just arrived in the city center, a female figure has just stepped off the bus. She's elegant and has an unusual look, with colorful hair ranging from blue, lilac, and pink.
??? (to sigh with relief)
— "...Sweet home country. Finally back to Portugal. So it seems that Fabro Rowan is the overseer of this Holy Grail War, and Chaldea's data doesn't lie that it is him."
The figure begins to walk through the fog of Coimbra, analyzing the environment around the city.
??? (suspecious)
— "This fog isn't normal here... And whoever it belongs to must be a Noble Phantasm of a Servant... And if there's fog... It's probably... from ■■■■■■■■■■■. What do you think about this, Archer?"
A figure appears beside her, dressed as a Winter Soldier. His presence is already intimidating and cold.
Archer (cold and short)
— "Possibly."
???
— "If it is him, we already know how to defeat him. I trust you to do that, Archer."
Archer
— "Yes, Master Elron."
Cerejeira
— "You dont need to call me that. Just call me Cerejeira."
Archer nods shortly with his Master orders as he come backs to his Spirit Origin and Cerejeira continued to walk through the streets of Coimbra amidst the fog that consumed the almost ghost city, and begin the mission commanded by Chaldea to investigate Fabro Rowan.
