"Calm down, kid. I just want to take something out of you."
He said while a monstrous shadow is opening my chest with his big scythe. I never expect that my life ends so early. Now I know what a Shinigami is like... "
(Lifeless body fell on the ground)
7 am. Inside the Storehouse.
I woke up in the morning, wondering how am I still alive. My Chest that has been sliced open. There's nothing. My heart still keeps beating.
"So, it was just a nightmare."
But wait, why am I here? Did I sleepwalk my way to this place? And I did lie here.(Found a drawing at the back of his right hand) What is this?
I tried to erase the mark on my hand but I failed. The drawing is somehow like a tattoo inked with blood.
"Forget it. It's no use."
The Sun already risen long before I woke up. It's better not to be late. I quickly went out of the storehouse and goes to the bathroom to take a bath. I tried to remove the tattoo on my hand but still, It's intact.
I cooked my breakfast before I go. Just then, I realized that someone's missing.
"Sakura" I seen her almost everyday when I wake up. She's always came early in the morning and helping me cook my meal.
"I wonder why she is absent right now. And speaking of being absent, I never sense Auntie came... Maybe, she leaves early."

Somewhere at Fujimura's Residence...
"Dad! You called me here. What's the catch?"
Ever since, Father was a head of a Yakuza in Japan, He was also a close friend of Kiritsugu. He aides Sir Kirie to rise again and have a new life. My Father leads a troop of Goons to protect the City and help people in need. His first encounter with Sir Kirie laid his dozen of troop to the ground. I have witnessed his fight. He is strongly undefeated during his days. But when he came back, he's so senile and weak.
"Taiga. Come... I missed you alot my dear daughter."
I know there's something going on why he called me
"I know there's a reason you called me here. You did know I am busy on my job."
He frowned, looking at me.
"You have patience on teaching. How did those students survived?"
Nah! Such a nonsense joke again.
My Father trained me and my sister martial arts since we were kids. You could say, were elites. But we couldn't outshone our father.
"The Mage Society is on move again. Thus, started another Grail War this early. We can't afford to let the events of the past resurface...
On the previous days, some people got missing. Some, found lifeless."
"What do you want me to do, Father?"
He stood up looking at the black sky.
"There's nothing you could do... Your sister has already lead the troop to evacuate people. Your task now, is to protect yourself from danger. Let the Kid, fight. Shirou Emiya, had joined the the Grail War by having a contract with a Servant Saber. He is a Magus trained by Kiritsugu. He is just returning his past."
"Mages are a threat to humanity, right? He live his life fighting them. Why did he adopt a Mage?"
"Because of her daughter."

(Flashback)
"Illya. I promise to take you out of there."

Earlier in Fujimura's Residence...
"Who are you?!"
The man in hood entered the Yakuza's house unnoticed.
"It's me, Mr. Fujimura."
The Man took off his hood and a familiar face appears before him.
"Emiya! I saw you died long ago."
Mr. Fujimura is in between shock and scared.
"You're right. I am already a Ghost. I haven't even fulfilled my wish for my daughter. But, that's not the case.
Fuyuki has been chosen again for the 5th Mage War...
Before it began, it took a huge toll in the city. Like what happened on the Previous War. Many innocent lives would be implicated."
Mr. Fujimura stood from his Bed and took a step towards Kiritsugu.
"What could I help?"
—"Mages are powerful. No ordinary man could stand before them, face to face. Except with a weapon."

Later at the building rooftop...
Archer found sniping at the vicinity whereas, he found two young student arguing with each other.
"We're done, Shinji! You're on with other girls. Your arrogance. I can't stand it anymore. You're so pathetic, You're no match for Emiya-kun!
Shinji got furious.
"Now, you got me. Ayako!"
Above the rooftop, Archer suddenly felt a chilling presence.
"This isn't good. Ayako should get away from him."
The Servant appeared behind Shinji and attacks Ayako. However, before the chain got her, Archer grabbed her with his arm cloth, covering her body like a shell and suddenly vanished.
Shinji got surprised for what happened. He doesn't even know who he encountered that saved Ayako.
"You! Try to play with me?"
Archer teleported Ayako inside the school building and leave her unconscious.
---
(Bell Ringing)
Ayako woke up and found herself inside the classroom.
What happened? I remember, I got an argument with Shinji. After that, I fell unconscious and woke up in my classroom.
It's 6:30am, the class is starting soon. Students entered the room and found out Ayako is already there. Shirou Emiya sits beside Ayako.
"Ohaiyoo, Ayako-senpai."
—"Ohaiyoo, Emiya."
Emiya is looking at her.
"Ayako-san, it seems like, you haven't sleep well."
When Emiya said that, she realized the way she looks. She wears a sleeping attire and found out she's in the wrong classroom.
Students and Teacher look at her all of a sudden.
Teacher: Mitsuzuri Ayako. Are you still sleeping in this Class?
(Ayako) All I remembered was Shinji went to my house before sunrise.
"I'm sorry Sir, I go now."

30 mins. Earlier...
(Emiya)
I got to walk faster, I'll be late.
Several minutes have passed, finally I arrived at the school.
But... What is this? I feel something weird. It's like my whole body chills.
Before me, Rin is standing at the hallway. She looks surprised upon seeing me. And also for my surprise, she ran towards me and hugged me. I don't know what's gotten her.
"I'm glad you're alive, Emiya."
I wonder what is she talking about. Why did she thought, I died?
(At the vicinity, Sakura is standing and saw what happened)
