(Where am I ?) Asuna had a dream, where she woke up in a desert with a starry night sky. In front of Asuna, there was a bespectacled middle-aged man who was sitting in front of a campfire. He noticed Asuna woke up, and that middle-aged man told Asuna to wash her face in a river not far away from the place where she had woken up. When Asuna saw her own reflection on the surface of the water, Asuna realized that she was looking at her reflection when she was a child. After washing her face, Asuna heard someone coming.
The person who came was a young man, who had a face that was very similar to Shirou and Negi. The young man looked at Asuna and said.
"Oh, you already awake Asuna-chan?"
(Who is this person? why he is so similar to Shirou?)
"Look at that direction, Asuna-chan," Said the young man. "The sunrise is very beautiful, you know!"
Right after the young man said those words, Asuna woke up from her sleep and her strange dream ended.
(What kind of dream is that!)Asuna said in her heart. (Do I like Shirou that much, that he appears in my dreams!)
Feeling unable to sleep, Asuna changed her clothes and walked out of her room at Emiya's Residence. To start a part-time job she used to do, which is delivering newspapers.

The day after the study tour in Kyoto, is free time for students to rest after a long journey. Shirou began his morning activities with prayer, practiced his physique and then cooked breakfast for everyone who lived in Emiya's residence. After breakfast Shirou plans to take a walk with Illya, Kuro and Miyu. Because the three of them forced Shirou, for the compensation for not being together with the three during the Study tour.
After his physical training, Shirou cooks simple Japanese dishes, miso soup, and grilled fish. And then he went out again to start the kendo training session together with Setsuna and Saber who had just woken up.
Kendo Dojo in Emiya residence.
"Good morning, Shirou-sama." Said Setsuna, who had just entered the dojo, used the clothes that Kendoka used to practice kendo.
"Morning, Setsuna-san are you ready to practice?" Shirou asked.
"Of course Shirou-sama," Setsuna answered. "I'm really looking forward to practicing kendo with you!"
Shortly, Saber enters the dojo in the same clothes as Setsuna.
"Morning Shirou, Setsuna-san." Saber said.
"Ah, Arturia-san, good morning," Setsuna said.
"Are you ready to practice Saber?" Shirou asked.
"Of course," Saber answered. "At least we can do a little sparring before the three of us have breakfast."
"So," Shirou said. "Between you two, who wants to sparring with me first?"
But before the two can answer,
"Can I join in the training with the three of you?" Asuna suddenly appeared in front of the three of them while still wearing her school uniform.
"Eeh, Asuna-san," Shirou said. "Why did you suddenly want to train with the three of us?"
"I also curious Asuna-san," Setsuna said. "Why are you suddenly interested in kendo?"
"Because I feel completely helpless, when I fight a group of Youkai when we all try to save Konoka!" Asuna said with tears trickling down her cheeks.
"Are you feeling upset because of your helplessness, Asuna-san?" Saber asked.
"Correct!" Asuna answered. "I am Konoka bestfriend, but I cannot do much to help her when she was kidnapped by that woman named Chigusa."
"Alright," Shirou said. "You can training with us, Asuna-san. But I don't want you have half measures when you want to practice kendo with us, because the three of us will train you really hard!"
"Ye-Yes!" Asuna said.
And Asuna began her kendo training together with Saber, Shirou and Setsuna.

Right after a simple breakfast, when Shirou is ready to take a walk with Illya, Kuro and Miyu. Negi stood in front of Shirou then said to him.
"Shirou-nii!" Negi said. "I want to continue the training we started at the Arashiyama Inn!"
"I also want to practice with you Negi," Shirou said. "But today I have an appointment to go for a walk with Illya, Kuro and Miyu, so at this time there is no way I'm practicing with you."
"Is that so?" said Negi, who looked disappointed.
Seeing his little brother look disappointed Shirou then said to Negi.
"But this afternoon I will do a magic training together with Rin and Evangeline, if you want we can continue the training later this evening?"
hearing the Shirou words, Negi really felt happy. Negi's face, which had looked rather lethargic before, became cheerful again and a big smile appeared on his face.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Illya, Kuro and Miyu really well prepared to take a walk with Shirou. To the extent that the three of them dress up and try on clothes for 3 hours, making Shirou wait for a long time.
When the three of them were ready to leave, Shirou fell asleep on the sofa in the living room where he was waiting. But what made the three of them surprised was Shirou fell asleep with his head on Rin's lap which also fell asleep on the sofa.
"Onii-chaan!" All three shouted.
"Aaaaah!" said Shirou and Rin together.
"Illya, Kuro, Miyu! Why are you shouting so loudly!" Shirou shouted.
"We are take a long time dressing up to look beautiful when walking around with Onii-chan! But Onii-chan actually slept comfortably on Rin-san's lap!" Said Illya.
"Illya is right!" Kuro said. "Onii-chan making as feel really bad!"
Not really understanding why Illya and Kuro were angry at him, Shirou could only be silent and confused what was really happening.
"Shirou! Why are you just silent!" Rin said "You are innocent of this, but why you silent and don't reply to their words!"
"Uuuh, Rin. It's not that I don't want to reply to the two of them," Shirou said. "But I really don't understand, what's really going on and why I was scolded by Kuro and Illya."
Kuro, Illya, Miyu and Rin all fell to the floor hearing the Shirou words. They really forget that sometimes Shirou could be a person who was very dense about other people feeling.
"They were angry because I put your head on my lap, when I had seen you sleeping on the sofa," Rin said. "And I fell asleep too because I was carried away."
After getting an explanation from Rin, finally Shirou understood why Illya and Kuro were angry at him. He patted his forehead and felt that he was very stupid not to realize such a cliche thing.
"Then the one who is wrong here isn't me," Shirou said. "And even though Rin was wrong here, but Rin is basically my girlfriend, so is not a strange things if I sleep on her lap?"
"Ukkkh!" Illya and Kuro said, their faces flushed with embarrassment.
While Miyu could only say nothing because basically Miyu was a person who was more logical-minded than Kuro and Illya, so as soon as he saw Shirou sleeping on Rin's lap, she yelled at Shirou along with Illya and Kuro because of mere reflexes, the rest she immediately realized that Shirou and Rin are lovers, so is not weird that if Shirou sleeps on Rin's lap, she feels she has no right to be angry at Shirou and Rin even though she actually feels a little jealous to Rin.
"Never mind it Shirou," Rin said. "Both of them are jealous of me, so it's only natural for them to get angry. Besides, aren't you going to take a walk with Illya, Kuro and Miyu? You should immediately go with the three of them."
Finally Shirou and his three younger sisters went for a walk even though, Kuro and Illya were silent because they were still ashamed of their actions.

In a famous cafe in the Mahora, Kuro, Illya, Miyu and Shirou were sitting at one of the tables in the cafe. Miyu, who really liked the latte that sold at the cafe, forced Shirou so that they would come to the cafe. As a result, they are currently sitting at the table while waiting, their order.
Shirou was chatting with his three younger siblings, about what had happened to him during the study tour. The three of them listened to Shirou's story seriously and carefully.
"So Onii-chan experienced something scary during the study tour," Illya said.
"Yup, and the white-haired youth in the story is truly a fearsome enemy!" Said Illya.
"It's a miracle that Onii-chan can defeat an enemy that strong." Miyu said.
"Yeah," Shirou said. "The part where I defeated him is something I haven't been able to tell right now, but I'll tell you when I think the time is right."

"Training with Shirou-nii will only begin later this afternoon," Negi said. "What should I do before practice time?"
"Aniki, how about we take a walk to see Mahora too?" Camo said. "Didn't Aniki haven't been touring Mahora all this time?"
"I have been, once with Konoka-san, when she helped me find casual clothes," Negi said. "But, it doesn't hurt to go around Mahora one more time, because there are still many areas that I've never been to!"
