The Holy Grail War. A battle of seven servants to the death until only one remains standing and claims the Grail for their master. You have been chosen as one of the seven masters of these Heroic Spirits. But perhaps, will this war be different from its predecessors? Maybe. Or maybe you will allow the power of the Grail to finally be realized by humanity. [Archer x Reader]

The 8th holy grail war is about to begin as the magi summon their servants. Y/N Songbird a 21 year old blonde female whose long hair goes to her shoulders in a ponytail. When she was younger she walked upon a group of males harassing a female who was weeping openly. She was going to walk away slowly to get help until the male struck the women across the face after he groped her. This spurred her into action as she took the knife she held always on her toward the throat of the man. The man chuckled as he easily disarmed Y/N and beat her bloody before leaving her in the alley. She eventually regained consciousness bloody and sore with the woman nowhere in sight. After painfully walking home, you wash the blood off your now sore body before turning on the TV to the news station to find out the girl was murdered by those people. At that time you went to London to train in the Clock Tower to attain magic power from her once dormant magical circuits. After years of training she returns to the states to Detroit at the urging of the headmaster at the clocktower to enter the Grail war in Detroit.

Archer (Emiya) X Reader: The Fifth Holy Grail War was 100 years behind her time. Now, a mana depleted Grail stirs masters and servants to once again vie for its coveted wish. Though, something is strikingly different with the device, noticeable to those who have encountered it before...but what? (F/N) (L/N), is a 22-year-old American transplant to Fuyuki City, Japan. The Fujimura's welcomed her when she showed interest in visiting...that was two years ago. Driven, beautiful, independent, and caring. Singlehandedly, she has carved a well-known life for herself. (Y/N) has her coldness to the world, baring deep scars from it, kept well hidden behind a bright smile in hopes to leave the past in America. When hurled into an alien existence of death and miracles, (Y/N) will need the help of a certain mysterious, cynical, arrogant spirit to survive. While she is no ordinary girl to be sure, she is far from a war trained mage. Archer, competes again for a purpose. His current role in the universe is a miserable one. It will be altered, he swears it...but for better, or worse? And what fresh hell have the fates dealt by contracting him with a novice mage to syphon from?! Will these two endure each other while waiting for the war to commence? Is overcoming themselves in order to work together even possible? And can they learn the greatest lesson of all from one another; that not all wishes take a Grail to realize? NOTE: 1. If you haven't seen the Fate/Zero (4th war), and Fate/Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works (5th war), the book builds off those, watch them first! 2. This is the first book I have written, I don't claim to be wonderful. I will keep character's as, "in character" as possible, apologies if I slip! I am baring my soul with a new art form, be nice reader's. Vote and comment please, I love interacting! ;3 *All music, pictures (unless noted), FATE/characters, lore, and crossover characters, I don't own. Likeness in OC's are coincidental. The rest is mine!
