3rd Pov
Sakura's life together with Neo had been coming up nicely, in past few days she had been staying with them and had really felt as if she had returned to the time before she was abandoned by her parents. Elsa was most sympathetic of everyone, and would always help and guide her in the ways of becoming maid.
Though often she got chills when she found how cold her face formed whenever the other women clinged to Neo, especially Artoria. She found out that Elsa was the first woman of Neo, but unlike others she isn't that strong, although modern magicians would speak otherwise in this world full of madness she was truly weak.
Now, Neo was surrounded by stronger and other beautiful women, though she didn't mind it at least somewhat, she was jealous of Artoria, but thankfully Neo always took some time out of his busy schedule to spoil her. She had personally peek-*ahem* watched how Neo would take Elsa on his lap and then shower her with his gentle kisses, much to the her jealousy.
She hadn't gone school for past few days, taking her time to adjust to this new environment, and on Neo's suggestion she will continue going on school. The last few days haven't only been very comforting for her but also embarrasing, as Neo often ended up in a sexual intercourse with any of his wives, and personally peeki*ahem* watching the scene she could find the difference between her past and them.
She had developed a trauma, but peekin*ahem* watching Neo on action did helped her, and she masturbated quite a few times imagining her body under Neo's figure. Neo didn't took any big action, with their house being shielded from the outside world the Holy Grail War was dragged out straight for a few days.
Illaysviel was still making plans on how to counter the servant that beat her berserker black and blue, Cu Chulainn being very scared of his master and hadn't engaged in battle other than doing some spying work for the priest, Emiya and Rin's group had been doing whatever after they got the shocking news, mostly Emiya's training so he stops being an hindrance in the battles.
...
" There haven't been any battles of recent, it is ruining my fun, Kirei", said King of Heroes Gilgamesh with displeasure, his voice filled with arrogance. The priest bowed and said," It would seem so, the involvement of the mysterious party and their interference had caused all the masters and their servants to be on alert it seems."
" I could unravel the truth if I desire, but this sense of mystery is thrilling so I rather not, whatever the case might be, I want you to ensue the battle between the servants", he said arrogantly and Kirei nodded, then he said," I guess it's the time you involve yourself Assassin", and thus a figure emerged from his back, as it knelt.
The person had a blackish and muscular body, his head covered with a robe and Kirei asked," You haven't found them as of yet?", the figure bowed and replied," Forgive me for my failure, but it would seem that they rather have an well protected base, to escape from my keen sight. However, once they come outside of the boundaries of their safety, you can expect them to be entirely exposed."
Kirei nodded and said," Fine, continue on your search and focus on the High-school", the figure nodded and vanished meanwhile Gilgamesh smirked," The second best assassin huh? It would seem a mongrel is always a mongrel, no matter how good he might be", he said, thankfully the Assassin had left otherwise it would have surely earned his anger.
" My King, what will you do about their leader? If Rin is correct then our enemy is a True Magician, and it makes sense then for Assassin to not have found them till now", Kirei asked, and a golden portal appeared as a golden jar dropped on Gilgamesh's hand filled with wine, he then smirked and said," A True Magician? It is no big deal for me, at most I would have to use more of my treasury."
Kirei nodded in relief having full belief in Gilgamesh's capabilities, and he was correct to think so. Despite the peculiarities of Modern True Magics, Gilgamesh came from an era when magicians where very common, and evens gods. In legends, Gilgamesh had slaughtered beasts equal to gods, thus it would be no big deal for him to kill a True Magician.

" Oh they are back", said a girl as she looked at the figures entering the classroom, they were none other than the Neo and Artoria, seeing them entering Shirou got alerted. It had been a few days since they haven't attended the classes alongside Sakura which have gotten him worried, he was also unable to find the traces of Sakura and he had been in edge for a while.
" Artoria, why you two were absent for the past few days?", asked the girl, and Artoria replied," It would seem we would have to get another transfer unfortunately", her words disheartened the girl," Really?", everyone in the class hearing their words surrounded them. Shirou being unable to control himself approached them.
" Do you know what happened to Sakura?", he asked garnering the attention of everyone, he went to grab Neo's collar though Artoria's hand stopped him. " Huh?", he looked at Artoria who was holding his hand tightly looking at him coldly, the grip made him regain his senses and understanding what he did he quickly said," I apologize, but Sakura has been missing for past few days."
" Is that so? But I did see her coming to school today? How about you talk with her later?", Neo said and rubbed Artoria's back who left her hold on his hand, meanwhile Shirou did an awkward laugh, though this scene was quickly overtaken by other students, who were quick to question the two, after all Artoria had become a school beauty like Rin and Neo became the dream male of the girls.
He was a gentleman and too elegant, extremely handsome, of course whether it was Neo's fetish that he made Artoria his sister while enrolling and fooling around for simple amusement was only known to a few, thus he looked like a perfect husband candidate to everyone. Shirou could only grit his teeth, and wait for the lunch time.
When the lunch time commenced, he quickly followed Neo and Artoria to the rooftop," Master!", he heard Sakura say as she hugged his arm, and happily continue," What would you like to eat? Miss Elsa has made a lot of food! She has packed three lunch boxes!", her focus was so much on Neo that she ignored Shirou.
" Sakura!", said Shirou garnering her attention, her expression fell," Senpai? What are you doing here?", she asked with a frown, Shirou ignoring Artoria went towards her and asked," Where have you been for the last few day?! Me and Rin had been worried sick for you!", he said, Sakura sneered hiding behind Neo and said," Worried for me? You are surely joking right?"
He looked at her confused, Sakura further said," Till how much long you plan to hide? My master and Miss Artoria might be silent, but you are insulting them", her words made Rin to sigh as she came in open," Well have your senses been always so Good?", she asked, and Neo said," Hmm, your dog has followed you, I see."
" Indeed, though I feel amused that other me isn't here My Liege", said Artoria with a smirk, " Rin finally you are here! Sakura is indeed behaving weird!", said Shirou while Rin slapped her forehead," You are so dumb Shirou*Sigh* Anyway Sakura, I was indeed surprised when I found out that Zouken and Shinji were missing, probably dead. It was obvious who could have been involved", she said breaking the news.
" Sh-Shinji is dead?", muttered Shirou in disbelief, and Neo replied," Roasted into ashes by yours truly", his words irked the boy, as he glared at him," Why?! Why did you involve innocent people into this?!", he spat and Rin grabbed his hand suddenly, and pulled him back," He was a master Shirou!", she said, trying to put sense to him.
" I see, so that's why you killed him?", he said, a bit more calmer but his words just disappointed Sakura, and even irked her when she heard him say," Sakura! Did that man force you?! He has-", she quickly snapped," Shut up!", her voice was loud and clear, it surprised Shirou, she glared at them and said," Forced?! This makes me so disgusted to hear someone say about Master, especially you Senpai!"
She lashed," I won't hear anyone of your nonsense! Stop pretending like if you care about me! When you were when I was raped by Shinji everyday?! When you were that disgusting old man used to torture me!! Where you then?! ", her words surprised both of them," W-What are you speaking Rin? Wait a minute what it is all about a 'Disgusting man torturing you?' and 'Shinji raping you?' ", asked Shirou.
" S-So that what was happening", said Rin, looking at Sakura with guilt," Did you ever try?", Sakura sneered," I-I didn't knew-", Rin tried to retort but was meant with cold words," Yes! You didn't knew neither of you! Why would you care if your sister is thrown to someone else by our father?! You are in the end proud daughter of Toshaka! All the wealth, inheritance everything belongs to you! You must be enjoying-", Sakura spat and suddenly stopped.
" I wasn't enjoying idiot! How would I know if you don't tell me?", Rin asked as tears poured down her cheek, Shirou quickly started comforting him, while Sakura felt even colder when suddenly she was pulled into a hug and was kissed on lips by Neo next moment,"~Slurrrp~Rero~Chu~", Neo's tongue invaded her mouth, and his firm hands grabbed her hips from the back.
Rin and Shirou froze as Neo and Sakura engaged in a erotic kiss, finally a few minutes after when Neo was satisfied he left Sakura, she was breathing heavily and a blush adorned her face,' More! I want more! ', a thought came up in her mind, and she pushed herself closer to Neo again, with intention to kiss him again, when Neo stopped her midway, and whispered in her ears," Decide it, It's the last time."
She was stunned, and quickly wondered where did she go wrong and finally realized, she felt cold when Shirou was comforting Rin, a tint of guilt washed over her as she finally decided,' Yes, they shouldn't matter to me, Senpai is just a hypocrite ', she thought, and finally said," F-Forgive me", Shirou suddenly asked," S-Sakura! Wh-why didn't you-"
" Why didn't I tell you?", said Sakura as she turned towards him," What would you have done?", she asked and Shirou instantly replied," Of course I would have saved you! Even at the cost of my life", there was no hesitation in his voice, but Sakura just found distate in it, his words would have worked like a charm if she was like previous her, and had a crush on him.
But now, she just saw all the bad points," Would you have killed Shinji?", she finally asked, in a slight playful tone. " Of course I would have stopped him", Shirou replied and Sakura again asked," Would you have killed him?", Shirou became silent realizing his next answer might change their relationship, ' Fool ', Neo sneered, since their relationship had already broken a few moments ago.
" I-I Maybe- No! Yes! I would have killed him!", he finally said, Sakura sneered and turned towards Neo and said," I don't want someone who want to give their life for me, Shirou Emiya. If it comes to that, I will be giving my life for him", her words pierced Shirou's heart," Master, forgive me for this drama and my mistake", she sweetly said to Neo.
Shirou clenched his fists, and finally ran towards them, " Wait Shirou!!", said Rin, in an attempt to stop him, but next moment a Noble Phantasm pierced through his chest, and he fell through the building surprising Sakura and Rin, Emiya Archer quickly materialized, and grabbing Rin, withdrew, while Neo used his Magic protecting himself, Sakura and Artoria as a rain of Noble Phantasm washed over the terrace.
" Finally better, that mongrel has been proven to be an annoyance even when I was just merely spectating", said Gilgamesh as his figure became visible, sitting on the throne on the top of the Vimana. " It's him, My Liege", hissed Artoria in anger, she knew how strong Gilgamesh was, and if not for her trust in Neo's abilities, and knowing he can kill him, she would have liked to withdrew to protect Neo.
Neo meanwhile yawned, and cracked his bones, he looked at Sakura and patting her head, he said," Sakura, I will return you back to home, just tell Scathach to come here", she blushed and hugging him closer, she felt her heat and didn't wanted to leave, but realizing she might be just a liability, she bit her lips and nodded, and Neo teleported her away from there.
" It seems you were enjoying the drama as well", Neo said as he looked at the familiar figure, A Noble Phantasm shot towards him next moment and Artoria who had already summoned her weapon and armor deflected it." Who gave you the permission, to talk with me Mongrel", Gilgamesh said, in slight anger.
" Haha", Neo laughed as if amused and then said," Mongrel, geeze, that's typical Gilgamesh, remembering what happened last time gets me wheezing, well, we meet again King of Heroes", Neo looked at the Gilgamesh unbothered by his glare, " Master there is another servant", Artoria said and he nodded, " Assassin huh?", he muttered.
" W-Wait! Who are you! Have you gone insane?! To battle in broad light!!", said Rin who was on the back of Emiya who grunted in displeasure, and quickly avoided a few E rank Noble Phantasms, the school was at chaos, and many students foolishly observed Gilgamesh's ride, Rin grunted and said," Take me to Emiya!"
" He will survive", Archer said, and looked at Gilgamesh with sweat," For now-", he quickly jumped back as dozens of Noble Phantasm were shot at Neo obliterating the roof, the scene was for all to see in the middle of the day," We should focus on staying alive", he finished his sentence and quickly started running away despite Rin's protest.
Gilgamesh ignored them, regarding them nothing as running bugs, and instead focused on Neo who was covered by a barrier protecting him, and Artoria who floated in the sky and had easily deflected his Noble Phantasms, he grinned and said," Not bad mongrels! Amuse me more!!", he said, as this time dozens of Golden Portals appeared behind him, Neo grinned, as he was ready as well.
