The Masters of Remnant [Discontinued]

Old and New Friends

(Shirou's dream)

(Shirou POV)

I slowly open my eyes, my vision becomes less blurred by the moment but what my eyes first set their glare too, fills me with so much annoyance and anger.

I look around the sky, the clouds are as thick and dark as I remembered and the smog suffocates me in a very nostalgic way. I notice large rusting gears turn endlessly. Then I look around to see myself laying on the desert like ground surrounded by similar rusting sword. A rough but tired voice then rang out to me.

???: Are you going to get up or do I have to motivate you to get up.

Suddenly my senses take over as I leap into sky to land and catch Bakuya in my hand before it cut my head off, however my instincts still screamed at me and my action soon were to tilt my head to the side and to my surprise I had just dodged an oversized version of black blade.

I turn to look at the culprit, he stands there looking down at me with a bored expression on his face with is arms crossed. He had his white hair slicked back, his bronze skin seem pale and his emotionless steel eyes were even deader than before. I noticed that he wasn't wearing his red shroud but instead a white cape that matched his hair.

Shirou: didn't know that you could alter the weapons Archer.

Archer: it's called overedging and you just need to further reinforce the blades.

Shirou: ok, but can you tell me how I got to this beautifully...

I look around to see the grave like swords and then back to him.

Twisted place?

Archer: (sarcastically)Yeah thanks for your opinion, I'll change it up next time you decide to pass out in the middle of a forest.

Shirou: what how do you know that I was in a forest?

Archer: simple after sending you to this new world, Alaya found out, that I interfered with her version of EMIYA and thought to send me to look after you as a punishment...

Shirou: wait how is that a punishment? I mean sure it must be boring watching my life until I die but it can't be that bad if it gets you out of killing innocent people for a couple of decades (or years knowing my luck).

Archer: you would be right if it wasn't for a condition she left. Every time you heal yourself from a serious wound with magic or any other means, I get stabbed by one of my own swords so that's nice.

Shirou: From what am hearing is that I shouldn't tell Tohsaka that you are getting tortured by your weapons.

Archer: what are you on about? Rin isn't with you she should still be a Fuyuki.

Shirou: no she got dragged into the summoning circle and was taken to this world with me.

Archer: that's good I guess, at least you have someone you can tru—

Archer suddenly stopped his speech and looked at me with to different expressions one of realisation and then it quickly turned to fear.

Archer: WHAT RIN GOT SENT WITH YOU TO THAT WORLD.

Shirou: yes she did and and am pretty sure she still wants to kill you for sending not only her but me.(thought you said that you were watching)

Archer calms down and looks at me with a calm look on his face and spoke again.

Archer: getting back on topic. You need to know why you passed out...
