"But.. where do we go from there? I ah, did some reading about Ruler. Apparently she can command our Servants. And not to mention Bailiff..." The priest shakes his head sadly. "I don't want to give up but... I'm just not sure there's anything we can do."

Alfred

"Hm. Sorry." Alfred says with a half-smile. He did NOT consider the idea of using this as a way to evaluate Berserker's capabilities, but perhaps Saber's stubbornness has given him an useful opportunity.

Berserker

The animal-eared man gives an assertive nod and picks the golden chalice on the summoning circle. His mind flashes to the time him and his music teacher took part at a bacchanal in Arcadia, and how he was almost killed by a flying goblet thrown by his master. Berserker grunts as he takes a pitching position, his leg lifted high as he winds up. What were the words that Pan used at that time? Perhaps they would help now. "I am not drunk enough, you bastard!" He yells in a horrifying voice before chucking the chalice right between the Manticore's eyes.

Brooks, Alfred, Saber, and Berserker; Warehouse



The manticor'es gaze turns from anger at Alfred's betrayal, to smugness at Saber's refusal, to confusion as Berserker's flailing attack. It doesn't even bother to dodge as the heavy cup smashed into the monster's strangely human face, leaving a large wound of exposed flesh, bone, and brain tissue. The monster screams and writhes, and it's hideous, discordant scream shatters windows all around the parking lot and business park, setting off alarms and attracting panicked nighttime workers to view the spectacle going on outside. The beast sways and it's black eyes dilate as it begins to lose consciousness. You feel the breeze of mana as the beast prepares a final act of defiance.

Saber's eyes shoot to the monster, and with a single, imperceptible slash, the manticore's head flies from it's shoulders in a fountain of black blood. The large head rolls across the pavement, the asphalt melting where the unnatural ichor strikes it, and it glares at the mages one final time, and screams in it's dozen voices, loud enough for the entire business park to hear, "KILL THEM!" it screams to the sky

(Hypnotic Voice; calling upon the Law 'Chaos Bears Fruit'; spends remaining 2 mana; Lesser Enchantment of Obedience 3 + 4 Strike targeting the night workers at this industrial park.)

From the windows, you can see the janitors' and graveyard shifters' faces twist into unnatural fury, as they run in search of weapons. A shot rings out, ricocheting off a curb nearby.

Atop a hotel

The pale moon shines overhead, illuminating the rooftop hot tub of the expensive hotel, the tallest in the city. A young playboy, a newly made tech millionaire, sloshes backwards, careful to not upset his expertly designed faux-hawk. He's moments away from slipping his arm around the beautiful lady he's with when suddenly a silvery flash cuts through the night, impacting the rooftop with a metallic woosh. An... arrow? The couple stare for several moments as the wind high above the city whips around, in the dusty darkness. A man walks out of the shadows, and retrieves his arrow.

Archer steps out of the darkness, the arrow in his hands glinting in the moonlight. He slips it inside his long overcoat and walks toward the low wall separating the rooftop from the city below, the spurs on his boots ringing with each of his measured steps. The man in the pool splutters and the girl lets out a squeal as they notice the large automatic rifle in his left hand and the ridiculously long revolver at his hips. Archer glances at them in irritation and they both stop, something about his figure silhouetted by the moonlight inspiring them with awe. He continues past them and reaching the edge of the rooftop he rests his foot on the edge, putting his right elbow on his knee. He stares out over the strange city for a moment. Then slinging his rifle up to rest on his shoulder he calls out.

"Oy! You!"

He glances back at the two lying in the water in their birthday suits. They both freeze in anticipation of his next words.

"Are you my master?"

"My apologies, if you're not my Master then surely that means I must be your guest! Terribly sorry to interrupt your... private party, but I hope you can find it in your heart to welcome me. I have traveled quite far and would not be ungrateful to one who showed me hospitality. Why don't you both go and get into something more decent then perhaps we can eat something and share stories."

Knocking them out is going to be hard but we can't afford to kill bystanders." He then turns to Saber with a scornful expression. "You must be proud now! Had you actually obeyed that time this wouldn't happen."

Berserker

After hearing the gunshot and the commandment of the Manticore, Berserker sidles close to his master, grunting at Alfred's attempt to approach him. "Back off, you." He groans as his ears start to wiggle at the shot's direction, catching every footstep and every clink from the weapons that the coming interlopers are carrying.

Berserker's ears twitched. Twenty three sets of footsteps, the click of five handguns, the crash of a dozen makeshift clubs being pried loose and rummaged for, the woosh of three telescoping batons, and the jingle of thee sets of keys as owners prepare to weaponize their cars. In the distance, police sirens.

"Uh, yeah, I means... you can crash on our couch. Not a big deal, I guess." the businessman says as he extracts himself from the hot tub. Archer is hardly listening, too intent on surveying the city. Police cars on the move, and a battle scene in the distance. Two magi and their servants beset by a mob. A dead manticore, very valuable. Archer's heroic instincts urge him onward, but he wonders if that would be a wise decision...

She and her new Servant converse long into the night. Kendra discusses in detail all the events and players that she has encountered so far, and in turn, she tries to learn all she can about magic from Caster. The sun has already begun to rise before Kendra even notices that she is exhausted, and at that point she is far too interesting to stop talking. She downs one last cup of tea, takes a brief, cold shower, and begins getting her things together for another excursion.

"I am going to the church to see if my new 'ally' is well," she says. "Please follow me in your spiritual form."

Kendra then exits the hotel building and begins walking toward the church. It's only moderately far away, and she needs the exercise to keep her awake.

A really quiet afternoon could be spend here in leisure with your friend.

"Pathan, come look at this flower! It's purple color! Have you seen a purple color flower before?" Shering waves for Pathan's attention, which distracted him from knocking for a moment to appreciate this flower that he doesn't really get what the fuss about.

"Nice flower, you shoukd waters it." Pathan went back to knock the door after the suggestion.

Brooks


"We don't have a lot of options for places to run to, man; they're coming from all directions."

Brooks bites his lip. He's definitely got an odd Servant, one whose abilities he doesn't quite understand...especially with how he up and chucked his priceless relic at the manticore to attack. That would probably make his father...very upset indeed.

"Can you do anything to stop this?" He hisses to Berserker, giving Saber a sidelong glance. He's not entirely sure what the hell she's trying to do, but he's running low on mana, and his magic wouldn't be terribly helpful here besides. While they deliberate, he flips open a butterfly knife from his pocket and grabs the base of the manticore's tail, starting to quickly hack it off. Reagents are hard to come by in places like this, and could be helpful in the future. When he gets an odd look from Alfred, he shrugs. "You can take the tongue."

Assassin


Assassin seems to have followed behind Pathan, though when he got there is anyone's guess; he just seems to show up in places, rather than actually traveling there. He was mostly silent in the priest's abode, not wanting any of his friendly conversation to give away his identity to one of his master's rivals.

"So...tell me about the other masters," he says airily, clearly not even looking at Pathan as he speaks. He wanders over to the organ, hitting a few keys and visibly grimacing. "What do you know of them? We will need to form a strategy quickly." He opens a panel on the side of the organ and starts to tune it as he speaks.

Our plan is to convince more master to join in the indefinite non-aggression pact to figure out another way to get out of this alive together. We might have to defeat Ruler in worst case, and hopefully one of our servant can overcome her supposively invincibility.

The angry woman in the dream seem to accepted our cause.

The priest joined as a master in his sister's place with an artifact, but he got shielder instead of the usual class.

And rash to leave behind a master in a city of wild beasts. Still I won't complain when you leave yourself wide open."

With a flurry of his overcoat's tails Archer disappears. He can still picture where every bullet he shot would have landed based on their trajectories and expected ricochets. So in an instant he is near the warehouse behind cover picking up one of his bullets. He reaches into his overcoat putting the slug away and withdrawing a slender blowpipe. Looking from his hiding place he can see Alfred busying himself in the warehouse.

"If only it were so easy in three days time."

Giving a quick puff on his blowpipe a minuscule dart flies at Alfred's neck. He wouldn't feel it in the midst of all this excitement but he would now be marked.
