Shirou sat at a desk in his room staring at the 7 class cards tapping a finger on the desk seemingly deep in thought.

Jalter remained in spirit form since she didn't want to alert jack of her existence but shirou could feel her frustration at him just sitting there staring at cards.

'master when are we actually going to do something I'm bored as fuck sitting here' the spirit whined in his head.

"Soon berserker, I just need to figure out what my play is with these I summoned you with the berserker card but I can tell it won't be you if I install it"he says.

Shirou sighs collecting the cards putting them in the leg holster"right we should probably go investigate a bit"he said getting up leaving the room.

The house was empty as jack and reika seemed to be out so he locked up leaving the key beneath the front doormat and headed off into the forest.

Shirou hopped from tree branch to tree branch when he suddenly halted.

'Master'

Shirou nods "I feel it as well berserker" he said looking over to to the feeling of a heroic spirit.

"Hide your aura"he said jumping forward still on the trees until he came across a large castle structure he narrowed his eyes to a balcony seeing a girl in a wheelchair and a man with...a horse tail?

Shirou pondered what his next move would be when he heard lightning strike nearby... But that can't be right it was clear skies.

He moved towards the source which now showed an open field with several golems a few of which were now rubble.

Shoot looked to the aura of the servant seeing a woman with a large metal... Lightning rod?

"Yup definitely a berserker"he said watching as looking struck the other golems.

"She is quite powerful and the boy over there seems to be rather composed... Berserker what do you think?"asked Shirou pondering if he should introduce himself.

Suddenly an arrow shoots past shirous head cutting his cheek, Shirou instinctively jumped out of the tree darting to hide behind another"ok not a good idea"

Shirou grumbled thinking he had to get closer to them eventually and find out where they stand in the grail war.

'Master why not just go in there I'll kill them if they get in our way' spoke jalter.

"I'll be honest it's tempting but no id rather not shed blood"he says as a bow materializes in his hand"but I will not back down either"he says dashing out towards the wall of the castle.

'great idea master let's just scale a wall to get in where there's no cover' spoke jalter sarcastically.

Shirou shrugged"it's worked before"he said before dashing up the wall readying an arrow fitting it off to the side which collided with another projectile.

Shirou eventually reached the top and jumped in landing on the same grassy planes that the other berserker was in.

Caules stared in shock at how this boy who couldn't be much older than himself scaled a wall and installed lintercepted an arrow from a servant.

Frankenstein roared out charging towards the boy launching herself forward swinging the lightning rod at Shirou only for Jalter to materializes stopping it with her flagpole.

'you go ahead master I'll keep this failed corpse busy' she spoke grinning throwing Frankenstein aside before chasing after her.

Shirou walked towards caules making the bow disappear"don't kill her Jeanne we aren't here to make enemies"spoke Shirou crouching Infront of caules.

Caules just stared"I uh...."

"Oh right you must be confused I'm...Emiya and that over there is Jeanne...well evil Jeanne"he said looking back at Jalter who seemed to be enjoying this fight .

"You must be a master of red right! You are an idiot for attacking us like this"said caules.

Shirou waved him off"oh no no I'm not a master...well I am but I'm not really apart of any team"

"Huh then why are you here"asked caules rather confused when the rest of the black team came out to greet their new intruder.

"So can we assume you are neither friend nor foe?"asked Vlad who was on a horse as usual.

Shirou looked up"oh shit.... Uh yeah I'm neutral kinda I'm here on other business"he spoke.

"What business do you have with us then and who exactly are you, no normal mage could match a servant"spoke Chiron.

"Oh uh...about that"Shirou scratched his head

Alaya never said anything about me disclosing some stuff so it should be fine.

"I'm searching for someone who is interfering with this grail war and as for what I am, I am a mage and a servant"he says.

"A mage being a servant well that's unheard of you must be lying"spoke gordes

Vlad silenced gordes by putting his hand up" I'm sure what you say must have some truth but do not take offence if we decide to not believe you without evidence"

"That's fair after a-"Shirou was cut off with a boulder landing beside him"ah I forgot about those two, berserker return!"yelled Shirou.

'what seriously!? It was just getting good!'yelled Jalter groaning before sighing then dematerializing'fine but you owe me'

Shirou sighed"yeah yeah anyway sorry about that as I was saying, that is fair after all I showed up randomly without much to show, but I can prove it if you'd let me"spoke Shirou

The servants and masters of blush looked amongst each other"fine but if your evidence is not satisfactory we will not hesitate to treat you as an enemy"spoke Vlad.

"Fair enough"said Shirou standing up grabbing the class cards filtering through them grabbing the saber card" Saber Install"he spoke as his body began glowing blue bells pieces of the flooring shelf shattered off leaving Shirou in a traditional Japanese outfit with his hair becoming snowflake white and his skin becoming more tanned.

Shirou stood before the servants and masters of black who had mixtures of emotions shown from awe, to shock and disbelief.

"Is this enough proof for you"spoke Shirou who's voice seemed to have gotten deeper with this change of form.

Vlad stares at the boy before nodding his head"that is something indeed rather difficult to believe but we must after seeing that, so now this brings me to the next question, this person you are looking for who are they"asked the lancer

"Someone who shouldn't be here, they are interfering with the grail war and are currently controlling all of red faction"spoke Shirou.

"sounds troublesome then we will need to work together on this Emiya of course this will be a temporary truce this is a grail war still after all"spoke Vlad

"Fine by me I am just here to fix this problem you can keep fighting after it's resolved"spoke Shirou removing the class card from himself putting it back in the card pouch.

"For now though I need to head back I'll stop by again at some point and hopefully use the front door this time" said shirou.

"Very well we will be expecting you then"spoke Vlad once more as Shirou headed to scale the wall again to leave heading back to reikos home.
