Saber's Wish

Chapter 6: The Multiverse Sucks

"Say what?" Shirou and Rin were flabbergasted as Medea made her displeasure of Arturia's new appearance known. The Caster-servant grimaced as her gaze went up and down Saber's mature body with Kuzuki watching them with mild concern.

"Saber!" said the astonished Medea. "Why are you so- unsightly?!"

"Excuse me-?" Arturia looked at her in confusion while standing there stunned at Caster's response at first seeing her. Saber could not even bring herself to raise Excalibur as Medea looked her over frantically, even after the sorceress grabbed her face with both hands.

"Saber, your face!" Medea exclaimed while jerking Arturia's head side to side, looking at each side before going over her body again. "It's all wrong! You're so tall and lanky... how are you even able to stay upright?!"

"Huh?!" Arturia looked at Caster like she was talking crazy, and a blush started forming when she noticed Medea now staring at her breasts.

"And by Gods! What are THESE things?!"

"What are you-?! AH!"

Before Arturia could do anything, Medea suddenly started poking them with the spatula she had dropped previously, earning a yelp from the King of Knights.

"Oh, this is terrible!" Medea yelled somberly while feeling Arturia's breasts through the utensil she held. Saber was now completely stunned and blushing madly as Caster continued poking her while wailing and crying. "What happened to your youth and your... cuteness?!"

"(sigh) Medea..." Kuzuki said in disappointment as Shirou and Rin's eyes widened at the scene before them. Shirou for one thought Medea would be more enthusiastic towards the fact that Arturia now had a mature and even more beautiful form, given Medea had always complimented Saber's looks before. He had no reason to think that Caster would go ballistic and treat Arturia's new form so... negatively.

"I am so lost," Shirou lets out as he continued watching the absurd scene of Caster crying over Arturia's mature body. Rin, however, had gotten over her surprise and visibly contemplated as she said:

"I think Caster has the same views of womanly beauty as Rider. How curious..."

Hearing this made Shirou look at her curiously.

"What do you mean?"

"Medusa and Medea are of Ancient Greek origin," Rin explained to him as she recalled hers and Arturia's encounter with Rider earlier today. "It seems in that time and place, having a smaller body and chest were seen as more appealing."

"That's right!" Medea said to them, having overheard while still poking a distressed Arturia. "Saber was soooo cute before... and now she's not! What have you fools done to my little dress-up girl?!"

"Caster, enough!" Arturia exclaimed after having had enough of Medea's antics. "Get a hold of yourself!"

Saber banishes Excalibur and grabs Medea's wrists, pushing away her arms and by proxy, removing Caster's spatula off her bosom. Medea looks at her in astonishment as Arturia looks back with seriousness.

"This was nothing they did... it was the Grail."

Medea blinked and relaxed her hands as Arturia's words sunk in.

"The Grail?" Caster asks curiously.

"Yes," Arturia replies as she slowly released Medea's arms and then changed from her armor and into her casual clothes in a flash of light. Saber goes on to explain, "What you see is the accidental result of a wish, and if our friends see me like this, magecraft will be exposed to them, and then Enforcers will come to harm all of us. We need your help..."
