Emiya Shirou was screwed and it was even worst when he was killed by Julian before he use Paradox to rewind the attack, the reason was simple he was stuck between a wall with six knights. That was preaching to him to the wall for some unknown reason but making the situation more worst, the weird gaze that they focus on him make matter even worse, because these knights may have some sort of connection with Artoria.

Shirou sighed, as he remember this. Kind of situation always happened to him in the past, either because of coincidence or fate being a bitch to him. Which was a 50 per-50 gamble at a time, just like when he first met with Muramasa and revealed Julian. Or back when he might, have accidentally slept with the Lord of the Clock Tower. He doesn't know if that was real or not because he was in a high-level illusion that can even trick reality and space itself, he wasn't sure yet if that happened or not, or was it even the real lord?

Though beside that, right now he is being started by the Knights of the Round. Gawain, Lancelot, Mordred, Gareth, Tristan, and Bedivere, was looking at Shirou with interest, while Mordred on the other hand was looking toward him with quite a bit of malice yet it still held some small curiosity. They were all looking at him intensely as if they were interrogating a criminal, with both Gawain and Gareth expressing their interest, Lancelot who was in a state of disappointment, Bedivere who was also curious yet still held his composure, Tristan on such a rare occasion opened both his eyes in curiosity and the worst of the bunch... Was Mordred who was the one pinning him down to the wall, while staring a threatening glare toward the man.

"Just how the hell did into get into this kind
Of situation again" Shirou thought, as he
Start to remember how this happens.

(Flashback)

Shirou was now walking in the Chaldea hallway with Arturia beside him, even though it may seem to be normal, deep down Shirou can felt that he's been watched over by someone.

"Shirou Is anything wrong?" Arturia asked.

"No, it's just I feel, that someone is watching me from behind," Shirou retorted.

Arturia who heard this, turn her head back to meet with a view of nothing.

"There's no one," Arturia said.

"You sure? Because it felt like one," Shirou said.

"You just overreacting, come! Let us go,
I'm hungry," Arturia replied.

"Alright, alright," Shirou chuckled, at Arturia's antic as the 2 of them walk to the cafeteria.

But to Shirou's suspicion, the one that follows or stalks him from behind. Was one other than the group of knights, that consist over; Gawain, Lancelot, Mordred, Gareth, Tristan, and Bedivere. Gareth took a quick breath, after not getting caught. While Mordred on the other hand was just as pissed off, as she was. Especially ever since they found that Shirou's interaction, with their king and her multiple version, manage to spark multiple emotions that even both the master and them, can even trigger such emotion easily. Because of that act, Mordred gains some interest in the unknown man, which soon the rest of the knights pick up after hearing the rumor that is going around Chaldea.

How did they know, in the first place? It was thanks to the help of the Mage of Flowers, Merlin.

"Did they see us?" Gawain asked.

"Nah! I'm pretty sure, that he didn't see us," Gareth said.

"Why are we doing this again?" Bedivere asked.

"Isn't it obvious? We need to find out about this 'Shirou' relationship with father, and her other version. I want to know, why Father act like that when Shirou was around, I mean have you seen what happened last week?"
