Panic rushed through my head in seeing blood. I have been in the market place once but seeing blood from another human? I watch in fear as Archer summoned more weapons from his invisible arsenal. He clearly wants to finished her without mercy. "So who is your Master, Saber? Is he a mongrel too like ____?" How dare he used my name!

"What... Are you... Talking about?" She spitted blood. Saber frowns but do not show any pain even if three ornamented swords impaled to her body. She is more annoyed than hurt.

"Nevermind, you lowly mongrels do not understand anything!" Laughing, various weapons are coming from thin air. I recognized some of the weapons, a scythe, an axe, and even chains. 

I know Saber is not human like Archer which thank the gods but the blood is real. Saber staggered as she begun the pull one sword from her torso. I saw Archer raised his eyebrows in a mild amusement. Her armor mend on its own as  the blade are pulled. "I... have a A- Endurance thanks for my Blessing from Heaven" It sounds lame but in front our our eyes, the first blade fell on the asphalt. Before the sword even touch the ground, the sword vanished, leaving gold sparkles like what you see when Archer materialized. 

The woman in an armored long dress positioned herself in her battle stance and pointed her huge sword to Archer. Two swords are still sticking on her blood stained clothes. 

Whipping the blood from her face, Archer watched her in amusement. "Indeed, for a lowly class like you, you amused me but only for a bit"

"I like you, Archer" Saber impaled her huge sword on the ground. "How about we fight one on one without your fancy arsenal? true men fights with sword to sword" After she said that, her sword suddenly materialized into a small sword which can be one be use one-handed. The curling snakes-like designs are still noticeable. 

"Ha, you must be a king" With a quick snap, his weapons that are coming from nowhere disappeared like it does not exist. "You deserve my attention after all" 

Because of what is happening, I forgot that I am still there hiding in a small bush and Archer is buying me time to escape or something. My eyes watched them with excitement even if I know that I should not go crazy to a deadly fight. Should I do something? Archer looks like he knows what he is doing.

"Honeyed words I see" She looked away for a second and attacked him. I think I imagined that Saber just blushed... in front of her enemy.

Without summoning a weapon, Archer evades everytime Saber slashed him. Air gushed from Archer as an axe like weapon suddenly appeared in his clenched hand.  She threw another blow which Archer instantly clashed it with his new axe. They crossed blades for a second, I expect some bright sparks or something but their swords must've been stronger than Earth ones. 

Finally, Saber stand back and pointed the blade to Archer. In reply, a new weapon appeared on the hand of her enemy, a scythe which I think is not the best weapon on a battlefield. He dragged the weapon on the floor and strike it in one clean blow. Archer is actually not targeting her but the small sword instead.

The sword is snatched by the curve part of the scythe and flung in the air. It impaled on the ground which Saber realized she is weaponless. 

"Saber, you should be elegant and clean in a battlefield"

A voice behind them spoke. Smoke partially covers him. Saber suddenly side stepped and hold the two swords on her torso in each hand. Pulled it without breaking a sweat, Saber leaps in the air and armed herself with the swords which strangely does not change into golden sparkles.

Archer arched an eyebrow and looked at the mysterious figure. I glimpse of him holding two rubies in each hand. "Who are you supposed to be?" 

"King of Heroes? Is that really you?!" The smoke quickly disappeared and behold a man in scarlet trench coat. The raven mop of hair on his head and the kind hazelnut eyes... It can't be... He is Leonard Tohsaka!
