Chapter 13 Fate Zero Arc 13 (FINALE)

3rd Person Pov

That night, Artoria had called Y/N, telling him that Irisviel was kidnapped by Alexander which caused him to become enraged. He and Artoria got onto a bike as they sped away while the other servants followed.

You: I thought we had a truce, why is Alexander kidnapping mom?!

Artoria: I don't know.

Scathach: Y/N.

You: Scathach?

Scathach: Rider shouldn't be flying like that, he should have a chariot if he plans on kidnapping Irisviel

You: You're right! Scathach, Mordred, Artoria Lily, Morgan, and Serenity, go after Alexander's imposter and Irisviel! Artoria, go find Alexander, the real on!

Artoria: Understood

Artoria sensed Alexander and Waver who were on a chariot as she speed up. Alexander surprisingly drops down, showing that he wants to race

You: Oh no...

Artoria: Hang on, Y/N, I'm pushing this bike to it's limits!

Artoria then upgraded the bike as invisible air speeds the motorcycle even more. As for Alexander, he scratches the side to make debris fall

Musashi: We got this! Go after Alexander!

You: Thanks girls!

Artoria turns on the boosters and jumps off the road as she clashed with Alexander, pushing Y/N and Artoria back

You: So it was an imposter.

Artoria: You were right. Good thing we followed this one whole the others are going after the imposter.

Back with the other 4, they were able to track the imposter on a tower with Kirei and Kariya.

Scathach; So this is where you were, now, give up Irisviel!

Morgan: ?! Get down!

Morgan pushes Mordred towards the ground as Scathach and Serenity dodged an incoming metal pole as they saw Alexander turn into Berserker

Morgan: That armour, it's no doubt that Berserker is Lancelot, Knight of the Roundtable from English Mythology.

Artoria Lily: It can't be...

Mordred: Lancelot?! But... how can a woman loving man manifest into the Berserker class? Wait... could he also-

Morgan: Hate on your father? It's most likely he would.

Kariya: Destroy them before you come back to us, Berserker

Lancelot: AAAHHHH!!!

Lancelot takes the pole back as he rushes towards the 5 Servants. They didn't had time to react as they simply dodged before going for an attack. However, there was another person there, and Scathach saw it.

Scathach: Gae Bolg, Alternative!

Scathach threw her spear away from Lancelot as splits. It didn't aim for Kariya or Kirei, but a vampire, Zouken Matou

Zouken: Gwah?!

Scathach: Did you really think you could hide from us? Pathetic.

With this chance, Berserker took Kariya and Kirei away as the other 3 servants looked at Zouken Matou

Mordred: Who's this geezer?

Scathach: Zouken Matou, his family uses Crest Worms in order to win the Holy Grail War. Additionally, regardless of age, he'll put the crest worms inside his descendants.

Serenity: He what?

Scathach: On top of that, the latest victim was a child

Mordred: You make me sick, you should die! Clarent Blood Arthur!

Artoria Lily: Wait, don't!

Mordred didn't listen as she slashes down her sword towards Zouken, destroying some of the place as Zouken was burnt to a crisp.

Artoria Lily: You... killed him.

Mordred: It was for the best, he was made of pure evil, enslaving kids for his own gain, he's worse than father.

Morgan: In front of a child too, your own father who is too pure for a world such as this. Come on, we have more work to do. But first, we should report this to Master

Serenity: Understood

Back with Y/N and the rest, Alexander had escaped with Waver while the others returned

Artoria Lily: Y/N-Sama!

You: Artoria Lily? Where's my mother?!

Scathach: It seems that Berserker has another ability, and that is to cloak himself as another person.

Artoria: What?!

You: So that explains why Rider didn't want to use his chariot a while ago. What about Kariya?

Serenity: So that's his name? I see. He was working for Kirei but it was all a lie, a trick. While coming back here, I saw Kariya go inside the church and there stood Tokiomi Tohsaka

You: Tokiomi?

Serenity: Yes. However, his body showed no signs of movement, he wasn't even breathing. With that said, Kariya wasn't the one who killed him as he was in a state of shock

You: ... What am I going to say to Rin? She will ask me too since the Tohsaka, Emiya, and Einzbern families work together...

Ishtar: What else?

Serenity: Kirei Kotomine was the one who killed him, I assume.

Ereshkigal: It's the most obvious choice to put him there. One, Y/N told us that Tohsaka was working with Emiya and Einzbern, so Kiritsugu is out.

Tamamo: Alexander and his servant were with us, so it's no doubt that they are innocent and no nothing about Tokiomi's death

You: By removing Diarmuid, his master, Maiya, Kariya, Berserker, and Rider, it can't be more obvious than Kirei.

Artoria: If Tohsaka is dead, what happened to Gilgamesh?

You: Anyone can make a contract with a servant as long as the previous master has died. So, it is most likely she made a pact with Kirei. Tamamo, can you sense where Kirei is?

Tamamo: I have no idea who that is, so I'm useless right now, sorry.

You: Then we'll have to search for them! If Kirei is nearby, so is my mom, let's go!

Everyone: Hai!

Time skip

It has been more than a few hours and yet, no one was able to locate Irisviel. Artoria went to report it to Kiritsugu before leaving to Y/N

You: Nothing?

Artoria: Unfortunately, no... I'm sorry

You: It's okay, you did your best. We'll continue after we get some rest

Artoria: Why not keep searching?

You: Artoria, it was late at night when we began the search, Skadi looked everywhere along with Rin's counterparts but they couldn't find Kirei anywhere. Besides, the only way to achieve the grail is to... have a homunculus, mom is one and with that, the grail

Artoria: I see... Fine, we'll continue later on. I'll go rest, you should too.

You: I'll be fine.

Time skip

As night fell, 7 blue flares were released as 4 red ones were followed, it showed that the war was over. However, it wasn't by the church, it was a challenge.

You; Gilgamesh... Suit up, everyone!

Everyone: Hai!

Everyone got ready as they ran towards where the flare was. Y/N looked up and saw Alexander and Waver. The guy who sent the challenge was to be bait for all servants and masters to come to one place.

Gilgamesh: This is some exceptional planning, Kirei, what next?

Kirei: We wait.

Gilgamesh: Suit yourself. You yourself found a reason to fight. Hmph, as long as my prize, the dragon knight, is alive, I won't hold back

Kirei: Do what you want, I don't want anything from the grail.

Gilgamesh: Yare yare. I guess, we'll see what the grail wants with you

As Y/N arrived at the scene, there he stood alone, holding Diarmuid's Spear as Kiritsugu followed. Artoria arrives at the scene as well.

You: The rest of you stay put, my servants, I'll deal with this myself, alright? Unless I need you, come to me, alright?

As Artoria and Y/N drove inside the parking lot, an explosion happened as they got out

Artoria: Y/N, are you okay?!

You: Yeah, Berserker is here too, prepare for battle!

Lancelot: AAAAARRRRRTTTTGGHUUUURRR!!!!

Berserker rushes towards Artoria, showing no intention on attacking Y/N as the 2 fought. Y/N kicked Berserker out of the way as Artoria got back on her feet. 

You: Jalter!

Jalter: Leave it to me!

Jalter slashes Berserker but ends in a block. Artoria then follows it up with a slash on the back along with Y/N

You: Nice follow up

Artoria: Nice save. However, it feels as if I've fought him before. If you are a knight, show yourself!

Berserker did no such thing as he fired away bullets from his gun, to think a knight could use one. They barely had any cover as Berserker kept on firing bullets even though that gun should have a limit.

You: (Mana!) Jalter, destroy the gun!

Jalter: Better said than done!

Artoria: Hah!

Artoria slashes down but Berserker was able to catch it with 2 hands, as if he knew this was coming or as if he can see the sword. The fire caused the sprinklers to activate as the fire died down

You: If he knows that he can see the sword, he's a Knight of the Round Table!

Artoria: ?! Show your face!

Berserker then removed his helmet and the shadows covering it as it showed to be Lancelot.

Lancelot: Arr...thur... grrr...

Artoria: You're... Lancelot... but why? You were known as the first warrior even on the round table.

You: Wait, I know this! Lancelot's obsession is that he wants to be punished for his affair and for killing his king's men. He's also focused on the fact that you sentenced Guinevere to be executed for the same affair. These conflicting desires in Lancelot drove him to madness.

Lancelot: AAAARRRRTHUR!!!!

Lancelot slashes his sword in anger as it pushed Artoria back. She realised that she didn't lead and her ideals and king ship push it to that moment.

Jalter: Should we?

You: No, it's her fight...

Artoria: Thank you, Y/N... may your life be spared from the dangers of this world.

Lancelot: ARTHUR!!!!!

Jalter: Let's get out of here!

Jalter picks Y/N up as the door is shut behind them as Y/N tries to reach out for Artoria

You: Artoria!!!

Artoria: Goodbye... Y/N...

When they got out, Skadi teleports them to Iskandar as he saw them on the bridge

Alexander: Y/N?

You: Iskandar... don't tell me that you're gonna-

Alexander: Haha, you guessed it. Even if our truce was short, we didn't a battle, our friendship was more than enough!

Gilgamesh: Come, Rider

Alexander rides into battle as Gilgamesh uses her gate of Babylon to destroy him. Once Alexander got through, he was stabbed on the arm, but that didn't phase him, nothing did. As soon as he got to Gilgamesh, chains blocked the attack

You: Chains of Enkidu?!

Ishtar: I knew she'd use that, nothing gets past Gilgamesh... it's over

Gilgamesh then stabs Alexander with his Noble Phantasm, Ea before he disappears.

Alexander: This expedition... was the greatest I've had. Ah... I see, the thumping in my hear... is the sound of waves

You: Sayonara, Alexander Iskandar... Gilgamesh... please spare Waver.

Gilgamesh: Fine. If he is a true courtier, you have the duty to avenge the death of his king.

Waver: I'll die if I challenge you... because my order was to live on

Waver stood still in front of Gilgamesh before she left. Waver drops to the ground as he yells in his defeat.

You: The grail, we can't let Kiritsugu or Kirie have it!

Tamamo: You guys go on ahead, I'll scout for any oncoming enemies. Like I said, master, I'll help you in anything. The grail is another, I will not help you if that's that case

You: I know. However, once this is over, I want to know more of you, Tamamo No Mae!

Tamamo blushes before Skadi teleports Y/N to the Grail which was Irisviel all along

You: Mom... right, the ritual.

Skadi: Master, don't, look!

Y/N watches as the Grail overflows with a liquid as it covers the room. It broke through the floor as well as Y/N was consumed by it

You: Ah!

Skadi: Master!

As Y/N opens his eyes, he sees himself inside his room again.

You: What am I doing back here?

Irisviel: I knew you would take the grail first, my son

You: Mom!

Y/N runs to hug his mom as Irisviel hugs him back. She always believed that he would win

Irisviel: However, I don't want you to wish for anything in the grail, my son. I want you to live your life as a normal human. So... this is goodbye, please don't hate me after this...

Irisviel snaps Y/N's neck as Y/N wakes up again in the real world. Skadi had already left as to stop Gilgamesh.

You: Ah! I'm back here?! It... felt so real! Then... where is Kiritsugu?!

Y/N runs outside to find Kiritsugu.

Kiritsugu: Destroy the grail, Saber

Artoria: What... why?! Your son is still out there, don't you have any remorse?!

Gilgamesh: Y/N?!

Kiritsugu: Destroy the grail, now

Artoria: NOOO!!!!

A huge light appeared from Artoria's Excalibur. As the entire theatre and the grail were destroyed. However, this caused a catastrophe to happen as the grail creates a corrupted eye, spilling its liquid which burned

Kiritsugu: Y/N!!!

Kiritsusu runs out to try and find his son. However, he couldn't. With no servants by Y/N's side, all he could do was run

You: Jalter, Jeanne, Musashi!! Where are you?!  Serenity, Ereshkigal, Tamamo, Scathach, Ishtar, Skadi, anyone please!!

Y/N slowly runs through the fire as his life force was being drained

You: Morded... Lily? Morgan... please... save you...

With Kiritsugu, nothing else mattered to him but to save as many people and his son. His son was the first priority

Kiritsugu: Y/N, WHERE ARE YOU?! Y/N!!!!

However, nothing but fire was there as Kiritsugu fails to find Y/N. With Y/N, he ran out of air as he falls to the ground as burning rubble covers him.

You: ...

He could only hear sounds which were faint and close by. Just as he had give up all hope, 9 tails showed as they removed the rubble

???: He's here! Hurry, help would you!?!

???: Don't order me around, you mongrel!

Chains then lifted the rubble off Y/N was placed inside the 9 tails as the person who saved him carried him out of the fire and the disaster itself as Kiritsugu had failed to even find his son and only one person that he saved.

Time skip

Y/N was being healed at the place where Morgan and Tamamo was found as Jeanne used Holy Water to heal him

You: (grunting)

Jeanne: You're awake! I thought that you wouldn't ever wale up, everyone was worried about you.

You: ... How long... was I asleep?

Jeanne: 8 Months. Rin was worried about you too, so Scathach went to her place to tell her that she was alive

You: I see... is the war over?

Jeanne: Yes. Usually after the Grail War, the master of each servant would need to use their command seals to make their servants commit suicide

You: ...

Jeanne: But, I don't think you'd allow that, you're too kind for this world.

You: True... hey, Jeanne. If it's alright with you, how did you come to this world?

Jeanne: That's a weird question, but I came from what is called a Singularity, time fractures in when every Holy Grail War commenced. This is also how many of your servants joined you too.

You: I'm guessing more would come huh?

Jeanne: That's right. If so, we should make a faction

You: A faction huh? Good idea, I think I'll call it...

Silver Faction
