Disgrace. Ugly. Pathetic. Weak.  Bitch. Slut. Whore. All of these names ran through my head as I tossed and turned sweat beaded on my face. I could see Natsu and the rest of Fairy Tail there, screaming those names as they attacked me.
'No more, please no more, go away, you're dead, I made sure of it, I got my revenge' I thought to myself.
"-ess.....Miss....Angelica" I heard as I was shaken by the shoulder and I shot up holding onto my chest.
"Angelica its okay, it's okay now" said Gilgamesh as he grabbed me tightly in a hug.
"I've got you, no one is going to hurt you ever again, no one will touch you ever again, no one is going to ever lay a hand on my treasure ever again" Gilgamesh vowed, gently running a hand up and down my back as I silently shook but no emotion showed. In fact almost all emotion had been drained from me, my eyes were dull much like when I was still going threw that torture.
"There you go, calm down, I'm here now no one will harm you again" whispered Gilgamesh and I buried my head in his shoulder not wanting him to see what the nightmare had done to me. Taking a breath made me blink, Gilgamesh smelt like wine and surprisingly rose and lilac. It lulled me into sleep again which normally wouldn't happen even with Shirou comforting me I normally didn't get back to sleep.
'What has happened to you Mistress to make you look so dull, who hurt you bad enough that you still suffer through such night terrors. Whoever done it will rue the day that they hurt her because I'll kill them' Gilgamesh thought to himself as he stroked my hair as I slept. 

The next morning when I woke up I saw that I was cuddled against Gilgamesh's chest while he was still asleep his arms were still around me tightly. For the way the sun was outside the window it was coming up to eight already meaning I needed to get up and get ready.
"Where are you going?" Gilgamesh grunted his voice rough and deeper since he was still half asleep.
"I have to get ready for the day, I have to get everything ready before midday when I have to start the ritual" I told him as I got up and headed to the door while he groaned and laid down again which made me realise he was shirtless.
"Next time please keep your clothes on and also.....Thank you, for last night" I said looking away before I left the room. Caster and Kuzuki were still hiding in Ryudo temple so that was where I was heading first.
"Angelica, ready for breakfast? Did you sleep well last night?" Shirou enquired as he placed food down.
"Morning, I don't have time for breakfast today and I had a rather good night. Gilgamesh helped me out," I said as I walked to the doorway to grab my shoes. I dressed in a long sleeve dark red shirt and a pair of jeans and my hair was in more normal two pigtails. 

On the way to the temple I ran into Issei, one of Shirou's friends from school.
"Oh you're Shirou's older sister aren't you?" Issei asked.
"I am and you're one of Shirou's friends and you also know Kuzuki and his fiancée. Do you perhaps know where they are?" I asked him, remembering that outside I had to put on a mask of at least not calling everyone mongrels.
"Oh, do you know Mr Kuzuki and Medea?" Issei asked.
"Yes I do, Medea is my Aunty, I haven't seen them in a while so I came to congratulate them on their wedding" I said and he nodded.
"Well Mr Kuzuki should be in his room, that way and it's the first room" said Issei and I nodded as he went to finish his chores. 

"You?! What are you doing here?" Caster stuttered while standing in front of Kuzuki.
"Don't worry I didn't come here to harm you or Kuzuki, I am here for another reason" I said.
"What is it? There is nothing wrong with hearing her out" said Kuzuki.
"I have something for you," I said, holding out a necklace with a diamond crescent moon charm.
"A necklace?" Caster questioned confused.
"It is not a normal necklace, Kuzuki isn't a magi meaning he can not give you the mana that you need to survive and I won't allow you to kill innocent people therefore I designed this necklace. The diamond holds and stores mana that it collects from the air around it and when you wear it, it transfers the mana to you if you are running low on mana" I explained.
"And what do you want in return? People don't normally give something like this without something in return" said Kuzuki as Caster took the necklace.
"I need a core sample from both of you and a blood sample from Caster" I said.
"What exactly do you need it for?" Caster asked.
"It's for my own personal reasons," I said and she nodded before I opened the gate of Babylon and got my briefcase out and took her blood before taking core samples. Even though Kuzuki wasn't a mage he still needed mana to survive just not enough to be a magi or supply a servant.
"Thank you" I said as I started to leave.
"We don't have to worry about other servants coming after us do we?" Caster asked.
"No you don't have to worry about that at all, the grail war will be finished by the end of today" I informed them before leaving.
