Anomaly. That is the only word that can be used to describe this young man. Forever drifting away, forever bound to no one. This young man was just like the clouds in the sky. However, on one fateful night, he'll meet something just as boundless as...
Kotomine was seen falling on the ground. He felt whatever life he had in his body fading away. Hibari Kyoya killed him, he will admit that. However, when Kotomine looked at the Command Seals on his hand, he knew what he had to do.
"Sorry, Hibari Kyoya, but I shall have the last laugh. By my Command Seal, Lancer........take your own life!"
The moment Hibari heard this, he quickly dashed into the castle. However, as he did this, a single servant was seen watching him. As his crimson eyes looked at Hibari, a smile soon formed upon his face.
"Well then. Given how things are going, it seems the Holy Grail War will soon end. In that case...let's have it end in a way fit for a king."
~Meanwhile~ Illya, Lancer, Rin, and Avenger were seen waiting for the signal. Meanwhile, Shinji was sitting in the corner as the large wolf was glaring at him. As this happened, Illya looked towards a window. The moment she did, she saw a familiar bird flying inside.
"Judgement complete! Judgement complete!"
"That's the signal! Everyone, move ou-"
Illya and Rin's eyes widen in horror. Just as they were about to move out, they saw blood dripping onto the floor. When they looked at the source of this puddle of blood, there they saw it. Lancer driving his own spear through his heart. As the servant removed the spear, he cursed inside of his mind.
"Dammit, Kotomine. You truly are a rat bastard til the end, huh."
"Lancer!!!!"
"Don't worry about me, you two. Dying because of some dumb order comes with being a hero. I guess we both got stuck with crappy partners, huh Little Lady?"
As Lancer looked at Rin. The girl slowly nods her head, though she thinks Archer was more "unmanageable" than crappy. Soon Lancer couldn't help but agree with her.
"So he was too much, even for you?"
"Yeah, but that's what made me try so hard. As long as Archer was my servant, I swore to myself to do only in what I believed in. I hate to say it, but i'm not the one to save him because I think he's right. His choices, the regrets he's made over them, I think they're all justified. I'm so dispassionate when it comes to that stuff that I even make myself angry. So all I can do is focus on myself. Just like a certain someone, i'll keep going down the path I believe in."
"Man....this war really gave some servants a Master i'd kill to call a partner. Damn it all. By the way, young lady with the white hair and the wolf. You got a great fighter who shows nothing but respect for you two. It's rare to find free spirits like him with a sense of morals. Take good care of him."
"I will!!!!"
"Goodbye, Lancer. We may not have known each other long, but you're a great man. Let's go, Illya."
Rin and Illya, while on Avenger's back, left the area as fast as they could. While this happened, Avenger no longer sensed the presence of Lancer. However, the moment this happened, it noticed something off. Illya wasn't moving her limbs at all, even the sound of her breathing was no longer present.
"The moment Lancer died, this anomaly happened. Surely this isn't a coincidence. What in the world is going on here?!"
"Is that them?!"
Avenger soon snapped out of his thoughts as it looked at Rin. The moment it looked ahead, it saw Archer being impaled by Shirou Emiya and the boy's blade disappearing. As this happened, Rin ran forward as she saw Shirou bloodied and injured.
"Shirou! Archer?! Shirou, are you okay? And Archer, how did you get hurt like that?!"
"Good grief. Seems i'm sentimental to the core. If she had been just a little more callous, I never would have reverted to my old self. In any case, the matter has been settled. Now that I have accepted you, the hero Emiya can no longer stay here. The defeated should take their leave immediately."
"I couldn't agree with you more, Faker."
Before Archer realized it, three blades were shot through his back. Afterwards, several chains wrapped themselves around Illya as they brought her up the stairs. When the group looked in that direction, they saw one man looking down on them.
"That was most entertaining. A truly pointless fight between two fakes. Though the battle between Kotomine and the man akin to a drifting cloud was even more entertaining."

"So, do you comprehended it now? Such is the heft of the genuine article. No matter how you imitate the shape or power, they are just imitations. The sight of fakes crafted by fakes is offensive to me, scum. Shams who are nothing but copies of others should be swiftly disposed of like the trash they are."
As Gilgamesh said this, he opened the Gate of Babylon as he launched several Noble Phantasms at Archer and Shirou. Seeing this, Archer pushed Shirou out of the way as he also heard the sound of rushing footsteps.
"It's up to you two to defeat him. Do not allow him to use Illyasviel von Einzbern!"
In a matter of seconds, Archer's body was suddenly impaled by several Noble Phantasms and caught in an explosion. The moment the smoke was cleared, Archer was no where to be seen.
"Now them, you're next, deadman wal-"
"Taking a member of my Disciplinary Committee AND trying to kill my free help in the school.....i'll bite you to death!"
Gilgamesh quickly drew a sword from his gate as he used it to block a strike from tonfa engulfed in flames. When he looked forward, a smile appeared on his face. As his crimson eyes, made contact with cold, grey eyes, Gilgamesh couldn't help but enjoy himself in this moment.
"Giving me interesting answers to my questions, claiming that you'll even "bite me to death" should I cause trouble in your territory, saving the Vessel of the Grail from me, and killing Kotomine by yourself. Time and time again you've entertained me. You've kept me waiting long enough, Hibari Kyoya."
