Chapter 8 - Interlude: Summoning Ritual

Saber – King of Pirates, Gol D. Roger

On the Master's hand three red command seals lit up and in front of him came down a pillar of light. As the pillar dissolved he could see a man in a pirate's outfit, complete with a sword and a flintlock pistol but what the strangest thing was, was the big grin on the man's face.

"Hahahaha! You must be the master then huh? What do you say we go on an adventure and be the freest we could ever be? It's just us two but I'll make you my vice captain! Oh right almost forgot, Saber Class Servant – Gol D. Roger, the King of Pirates nice to meet you!" the man said while shaking the master's hand.

Archer - Distant Archer, Shamir Nevrand

While a pillar of light shone down on the ground, three command seals manifested themselves on her hand. From the light a woman in black and green leather clothes stepped out and looked around the room for any ambushes. Finally her gaze landed on the master and a scrutinizing glint appeared in her eyes.

"So you're the one who hired me this time. Well I see to it that the mission is a success but if you ever want to learn my true name you will need to put in some work on yourself and prove to me you're worthy of my trust. Anyway I guess I do need to introduce myself regardless, Archer Class Servant. For now calling me Archer will suffice."

Lancer – Draconic Lancer, Judith

Before him stood a beautiful lady with blue hair, a big spear and quite the revealing outfit. The master could barely keep eye contact with the woman. Of course she noticed his slight blush and she smirked mischievously.

"My so you are my partner in this war? While I don't mind you stealing a glance here and there it's rude to stare at a lady as pretty as me you know?" this only intensified his blush even further. "But unto serious matters now. I will have your back as long as you do the same for me alright? And before I forget, Lancer Class Servant – Judith. Nice to meet you master."

Rider – Scourge of the Carribean, Captain Jack Sparrow

After the pillar of light faded a strange looking man stood in front of him, mind you even a bit strange looking for what is apparently a pirate. The man looked around the room and seemed a bit disappointed after he was done.

"Huh seems like there is no rum here. That's a shame, but that means we just have to loot some from some poor sod." He fixed his gaze upon the master. "So you're the master ey? Not much to look at but I'll make a proper pirate out of you yet. The name's Captain Jack Sparrow, Rider Class Servant"

Caster – Flame Alchemist, Roy Mustang

As soon as the figure in the pillar was visible she felt slightly intimated. The man wore a blue military uniform, white glove and short black hair. He looked her straight in the eyes and a small smirk crept on his face.

"You're quite the looker, master." that brought a blush on her face. "But unto serious matters for now. I look forward to what we two can achieve under your command, but remember we're here to win the Holy Grail not murder civilians. And maybe by the end of this damn war I can make a state alchemist out of you yet. The name's Roy Mustang the Flame Alchemist, my class is caster apparently" the last part was said with a frown.

Assassin – Demon of the Hidden Mist, Zabuza Momochi

While the pillar of light dimmed the room filled with an unnatural dense mist. The young Master felt a shiver go down his spine before feeling the cold steel of a sword touching his neck.

"You're pretty young to be in this war. But who am I to judge? I'm hired to be your sword and I will do so but remember that even I have a code of honour and you don't wanna find out what happens if you break it. My name is Zabuza Momochi the Demon of the Hidden Mist and my class is Assassin. To a fruitful cooperation master."

Berserker – Mistress of Mirrors, Neopolitan

She couldn't believe it! She's done it, she was a master! Her smile soon faded when she saw what servant she summoned. A kinda small but stacked young woman, with a parasol in hand. As her smile fell the woman smirked mischievously and shattered into splinters like a shattered glass panel. The master turned around immediately but it was too late, at her throat was a sword that was previously hidden somewhere.

The woman showed her a screen with the words: [So you're the master huh? Guess we're partners for a while] the master nodded slowly and a normal smile appeared on the woman's face. [Great! While we should get the grail it wouldn't hurt to do some heists right? We gotta think about our retirement sometimes. And remember as long as you got my back I got yours as well master! This cuties name is Neopolitan, Berserker Class servant]
