Siegfried — Fighting Rider — Empty Field

The blow to Siegfried's head only made him take a step or two back. It didn't hurt, of course, his body was invulnerable save for a single point on his body. His advantage was that his opponent knew nothing of it. Then, Balmung burst with a holy light. No, the Noble Phantasm wasn't activating because it needed the Command Spell from the Master to do so. It was only flooding itself with enough energy to—

I'll show you the power of Balmung., Siegfried thought.

The blade's energy ripped at the ground as Siegfried swung it downward. It wasn't nearly as powerful as the true activation of the blade, but it was enough to injure the foe. The torrent of light swam through the air, spinning and spinning still as it drew itself toward the opponent. If if hit the foe, the explosion would only span eight or so feet in diameter. If not, the result would still be the same.

Tammy

"Right!"

Caster and Wes looked for somewhere safe to watch the fight, and they eventually found a bush of acceptable size. Unfortunately,even though said bush was quite large, it was not large enough, resulting in the Master and Servant to er.....squeeze together in order to fit.

With Saber, Inside the Church

Yuna nodded and started to exit the church. She saw Mike as she went out, and frowned slightly as she saw Wes run off somewhere.

She blinked, processing Mike's greeting.

"Good evening," she said, inclining her head slightly.

Still with his trademark grin, Mike tipped his hat to her.

"Hello! You're a Master too, right? Well, I really don't want to kill you yet, so how about we talk?"

Wes

Wes was situated in Tamamo's lap in an odd role reversal, her tail and arms wrapped around him as if she thought he'd disappear if she let go. Tamamo's aggressive cuddling aside, he had to admit it was comfortable. Her tail made for the perfect blanket. It was nice and soft, like she bathed it in conditioner, and it smelled strongly of cherry blossoms, much like the rest of her. How did she get it to smell like that? It was warm too, like a heated blanket. It almost made him kind of sleepy. Not to mention Tamamo herself was, how shall we put this... an excellent pillow. Very soft. Very... feminine, despite her rambunctious behavior.

And now he was getting red in the face. He really should remember not to think about things he doesn't want to think about. His eyes flickered open and shut, and the warriors appeared as if they were teleporting. Steel clashed and sparked, blades swinging at incredible speeds, ripping up the ground. It was a sight. And yet he couldn't stay awake!

He forced his eyelids open. "Tamamo, wake me up if I fall asleep. I should see this." This was a battle between Servants. His first, even if he wasn't participating. More than that, it was his brother's Servant. He'd need to watch this if they were going to have any chance at beating him later, as impossible as that prospect seemed.

Tamamo is a goddess, he thought, shaking his head. She's gotta have enough firepower to take on anything they throw at us. Still, as comforting as that thought was, watching Saber... no, Sigfried, was hypnotizing. He'd realized it once he'd seen the leaf, although he had his suspicions. It was undoubtedly the legendary Germanic hero, the dragon-slayer Sigfried, wielding the holy sword Balmung. And watching him now, Wes had to say he lived up to the hype. His movements and actions were those of a mighty warrior, one who felled a beast that many men considered a devil, if not a god. His strength, his speed, all far beyond anything anyone had achieved in decades, centuries. His form was flawless like his sword, and he obliterated the ground he walked on, leaving no doubt that he was the best to ever step upon it.

He almost slapped himself. Stop fanboying and start watching! He's your enemy now! He saw the sword powering up, like it was glowing. "Balmung... I think he's activating it!"

Yuna frowned slightly.

"...I don't think that would be a good idea," she replied to Mike.

"While I appreciate your efforts to be polite, I would really rather not talk right now."

Tammy

Caster was still slightly annoyed at the female Master, but she could not let that distract her now.

The Servants were...interesting,to say the least. She shuddered at the thought of those blows hitting her, or worst, Wes.

"...Goshujin-Sama,pay attention. I know that I'm incredibly fluffy, but please try to stay awake?"

Interesting indeed.


Mike

...Damn. She's not talkative like that Archer.

"...Oh. Come on now, it's not like I'm going to molest you or anything. Honestly,kid,you're not that attractive."

Here goes Mike again..

Drawing attention to it doesn't help, dammit!

He watched intently, waiting for Sigfried's next move. "Tamamo, you know who that is, right?"

"....Not really? A bishonen? Are you jealous, Goshujin-Sama?"

No, seriously. She had no clue.


Mike

Mike laughed.

"What? It's true! Sorry,to destroy your self-esteem,but it really is,one-hundred percent,true. I bet you've never had a boyfriend."

Nero — With Yuna and infront of the Church

Out of nowhere, the red Saber appeared with a crimson blade in hand. It was decorative with black markings up and down the strange, jagged blade. "A foul mouth fool such as you is unworthy to speak to my Master." she gripped the blade, and just those comments toward her Master were enough to set her off.

The rose petals circled around her and dispersed just as they did before.

Oh boy.

Yuna stepped forward, placing a hand on Saber's shoulder.

"It's all right, Saber," she said quietly.

Thank you, she added, silently.

Then, to Mike,

"You're right."

An indifferent tone, as if she couldn't really care less.

Wes

"Not really. That's Sigfried, the dragonslayer. He killed the dragon Fafnir, and bathed in his blood. It granted him invulnerability, all except for a single leaf-shaped patch on his back. That sword is an anti-dragonic blade. It's name is Balmung."

His brow creased. "To think my brother summoned someone capable of slaying a dragon..." Then again, you summoned a goddess. "Anyway, that guy over there is Shapur the Great, or one of his successors. I can tell from the armor. No offense to him, but if he's fighting Sigfried, this is going to be short."

The Church

"Waaah... you... you have armor, and... and everything!" The excitement in Faust's voice was practically a presence onto itself. She'd always been fascinated with the tales of knights, of blade meeting blade, and of noble battles. It had been, in life, a method of escape. Just like speaking with her demons... just like playing with Gretchen. And now... she was meeting one of these knights. Of course, she did not recognize the knight for who she was. Her name had not been spoken, and no Noble Phantasm had been drawn. But she recognized her nature, and that was one of a knight in shining armor. All at once, questions came flooding from Faust's mind.

"Did you ride a horse? Did you have duels with swords? What's it like to hold a sword? Gretchen wants to know if you like cake! Do you like cake? If you rode a horse, did it like cake?" Faust had so many things she wanted to ask that she couldn't truly contain herself, "You're so pretty! What's your sword like?"

Mike backed off a little when Saber appeared, but grinned again when Yuna stopped her from doing anything.

"Totally, knew it. Well, I've said my piece. Goodbye Ms. Forever Alone.."

"Oh, and try to keep your shameless panty-showing Servant under control."

He began walking way.

"Hmm, she showed me her Servant. I've got some info now. Blonde, short, speaks in purple prose..."

he muttered to himself.


Tammy

.....She couldn't believe it. Her Master was...amazing.

"....Goshujin-sama, when we get home, I'm going to lavish you with praises. That Servant is as good as dead if he faces us."

Wes

"I know, right? I'm so good I even amaze myself," Wes said with an overly dramatic flair. Even if it was mostly joking, it felt good to puff up his own ego from time to time.

"Still, we can't afford to take him lightly. Remember, he's literally invulnerable everywhere but that one spot on his back and chest. A target the size of a maple leaf. And if you want to hit him from the front, first you gotta get through the armor. It isn't going to be easy..."

He considered this. "Tamamo, you never really told me much about your magic. Do you have anything offensive? Projectiles, long range curses, stuff like that?"

Outside the Church

There was a sudden, large blast of wind from behind Mike. If he wasn't prepared, it would probably knock him sprawling.

Yuna walked by him, and turned.

"Don't insult my Servant," she said lowly. Dangerously.


Inside the Church

Hikaru smiled over at her Servant, who looked much happier than she'd been at...actually, at any point previous to this. Was the girl next to her exactly what she seemed to be—a girl?

She was really getting into this...

Jeanne — The Church

"I did, yes. I did, yes." and at the third question, she had to think for a moment. What was it like to hold a sword? It felt so natural to her. The power to decide life or death — no, that was His job. Soldiers, when charging into battle no what is to come. It is there duty, their fight to fight and die on the battlefield. It was God's will. "It's an extension of yourself, Caster. The blade is a part of you..." she continued with the explanation as she looked to the ground. "Hmm... when wielding a sword, you have to be prepared to die for your cause, to die for the Lord." Jeanne began to lose track of what she was thinking. The Ruler class Servant began to think of her past life. "Gretchen?", with this updated knowledge in her mind and the class of Ruler, she immediately knew who she was talking to. "You are Faust, aren't you?" she placed yet another hand on the young girl's head.

Wait.

Jeanne's expression immediately became sullen. The one who sold their soul to the devil Mephistopheles. A devil and a devil. "Yes, I like cake." she pulled her hand off Faust's head and took a step back. "I did ride a horse yes, and I don't believe I've ever fed it such a delicacy." she said with a frown.

"My sword is His sword." she finished, finally. "Does this satisfy your curiosity, Caster?" Jeanne said in a hardened voice which lost all warmth from the second before.


Nero — Outside the Church

Nero walked in behind her Master, her eyes falling on Mike just for a split second. Her eyes said it all. The next time they met, be it night or day, she would tear him to pieces with her own blade and it would be most satisfying.

The Church

Hearing all of this... from the mouth of a knight. It was more then Faust could've dreamed of... Gretchen wanted to hear this, too, right? She couldn't, not like this... Faust would call Gretchen, she would bring Gretchen to life, and then she could hear everything! And then they'd both talk with this knight in shining armor, and learn so much...

"That's... you really are a true knight!" Faust cried, unable to contain herself, "Doing the fighting with bravery, because it's your duty... I'll... I'll..."

She began to raise Gretchen up, she was going to let her speak... but then the knight's question of her identity stopped her. She was the overseer... Faust supposed that the knowledge of her identity made sense. "I... yes, I am... But... I have so many questions! It's so wonderful meeting a knight!"

... Her tone... It had suddenly grown so much colder... Faust lowered her arms, hugging Gretchen to her chest once more. Had something happened...?

"... Is... something wrong?" Faust asked, the enthusiasm in her voice beginning to die. The knight suddenly seemed to much colder...

"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."

Jeanne — The Church

"Yes, I—" Jeanne stopped herself. All Servants are equal. She couldn't condemn one and not the others. They were spirits summoned here, all to obtain the Holy Grail, no matter who they were. Condemning this girl, this child, for something she did in her past life was something she couldn't do. She became a Heroic Spirit, after all. "No, it's nothing." Jeanne's smile returned and she placed her hand on Faust's head. She even ruffled her hair, this time.

"It's nothing you need to worry about, Faust, nothing. I apologize." she grinned to assure Caster that she meant it.

"Oh, right. Sorry," Wes laughed awkwardly. Instead he turned his attention back to the fight. "So, how long do you think it'll take?"

Wes was in a betting mood.
