Fate: Merlin's Apprentice

Enchantment

Ark looked around the alley looking for his target. The Mage was currently wearing his armor that he recently repaired. Glancing around the dark area that still burned with bits of fire laying around. He quickly casted his Life Detection spell and spotted Rider hidding behind a wall. Time for some action.

"Come out Medusa, I know you're around here... that's right, you aren't hearing things, I know your true name and will admit, your much more beautiful then the books state, makes me wonder what your eyes look like behind that blindfold." Ark said purposely making his back face the female wanting her too attack first so Ark can get a feel for her speed.

The Mage sighed since it seemed Medusa wasn't going to strike first, or she was taking to long to find a proper opening. Spining around Ark threw two fireballs towards Rider's location which exploded on contact. The Servant quickly jumped out of cover before the spells hit her location.

Ark summoned a Bound sword and blocked a nail from hitting him. He readjusted his footing and threw a firebolt at Medusa who nimbly dodged the attack and rushed forward. Clicking his tounge Ark readied himself and started clashing with Rider occasionally dodging a few close calls. Leaning his head back as the nail just barely nicked Ark's throat.

"You are surprisingly good with a sword, for a Caster." Rider said but Ark scoffed as he sent forth a wave of fire causing the other servant to jump back and get ready to charge again. Ark however was preparing his next spell.

"I've seen way better swordplay, I'm only at beginner level, I'm more used to defensive tactics with a sword..." Ark then smirked. "But my spells?" The Mage dashed forward his body bursting into flames. "They're on another level!"

Medusa was about to block another attack only for her to jump towards the side and dodge a fireball instead. The Mage was already infront of her, his body glowing a light green and still on fire. Another wave of fire left the male's left hand. Rider tried her best to dodge the spells being sent her way, but Caster was firing these spells off like they were nothing and doing them at such speed that it would make any normal Caster green with jealously.

"Keep your eyes on the prize Medusa!" Ark said sending a powerful lightning bolt towards the pink haired female, sending her flying into a wall. Since she didn't have time to react towards the attack.

Not only that, but Caster already knows her true name and she has yet to figure out his own name. The male looked to be a knight, but was actually a Caster, that can throw off many Servants if they didn't know who the real Saber was.

Medusa tried to figure out who this Caster is, but it's already difficult since she was trying to keep her distance and find the perfect opportunity to strike. Rider hopped on top of a pole and looked down at Caster who looked up at her with a smirk on his face.

"So, how is your 'Master' doing?" Ark asked as he lowered his arms, but kept his guard up. Lightning danced around his fingers showing Medusa that the Mage was definitely ready to knock her off the little perch. "I mean beside him not being your true Master, it must suck not being at your full strength all because he can't provide enough energy for you... sounds like most guys." Rider tensed up slightly since Caster even knows who her Master is... well her new Master that i- "Don't think I don't know who your original Master is." Ark smiled liked some murderer ready to play a game with his victims.

Medusa narrowed her eyes from under her blindfold. This Servant was dangerous not only from his spells, but also his knowledge. "What was her name again?" Ark looking to be thinking about something. "Ah yes, Sakura."

"You leave her out of this." Medusa said this as evenly as she could. "There is no reason to bring her into this." Ark snorts as if he just heard the funniest joke and tried to hold it In.
