Chapter 5: Registration for the War

Both of the masters were currently looking at the sword.

Yuko: Wow...

Makoto: Let's Put this away and discuss this later.

Yuko: Yeah...

Yukio closed the case and both of them got up.

Yuko: Anyway we should get your registered for the war.

Makoto: Registered?

Yuko: Yeah, every Master must but registered in the war otherwise they be considered a rouge master.

Makoto: I'm guessing otherwise they get hunted down is that correct?

Yuko: Yup, I heard in the Forth Grail was Caster's Master was Serial Killer and the Servant made a monster that almost took out the city.

Makoto: Damn. What happened to the Master?

Yuko: He was shot and killed by a Master I think. Still a Master that uses guns and other weaponry is the most dangerous kind of Master in my book.

Makoto: Yikes... I hope none of the Masters in this war can use guns.

Yuko: Yeah.

Both of them headed back up stairs: Saber and Berserker were having a conversation.

Makoto: Yo Saber.

Saber: Yes Master?

Makoto: I got you the dress. I hope you like it.

Makoto handed Saber the dress. He told her to go upstairs and she did so. A few minutes later Saber came back with the dress on.

Yuko: Wow! She looks nice in it.

Berserker nodded, he smiling under his mask as well.

Makoto: You look beautiful.

Saber: T-Thank you Master.

Makoto saw that there was some kind of difference in Saber now than before. Last night when she fought off Assassins she was like a cold blooded killer, her voice was deeper and she had the eyes of a killer. Now she was like an everyday girl, her voice was normal sounding and she had a happy like aura around her.

Saber: Anyway we should get going to the church right?

Berserker: Yes.

Makoto: Wait can I get a say in this?

Yuko: Not now, let the priest explain.

Makoto: Ok?

Yuko: Alright Berserker, time to hide yourself.

Berserker: Yes Yuko.

Berserker disappeared. They then headed out to the church.

Timeskip

They arrived at the church after a 2 and half hour walk. One hour was because Yuko wanted to kill some time, the other was getting there because they walked.

Makoto: Here we are. I heard this place was destroyed a 8 years ago.

Yuko: Yeah, it was because of the Fifth Grail war. Even though it's still a church the feeling of death still lingers around here.

Saber: I agree with what Yuko says.

Makoto: Death doesn't sometimes mean it's a bad thing, but here it definitely doesn't feel good.

Makoto then shook his head.

Makoto: What am I saying, let's just go in.

Saber: I'll stay out here just in case with Berserker. Never know when another servant will show up. I'll do my best.

Saber gave a light smile as Yuko and Makoto walked into the church. When the reached the doors Yuko opened it and-

Yuko: Yo Uncle I'm here!

Makoto: Uncle?!

???: Yuko?

An man probably in his 30s was standing at the back of the church. He was wearing a priests outfit and he had blond hair Yuko.

???: Yuko What are you doing here? Who's the boy?

Yuko: Uncle Ken, this boy here is the Seventh Master.

Makoto: Hi there, I'm a master worrying about dying.

Ken: So you're Saber's master correct?

Makoto: Yup. Summoned her last night after almost getting killed by Assassin twice.

Yuko: I brought him here seeing if he wants to be in the war or not.

Ken: Do you want me to explain the basics to you?

Makoto: Yuko did but I think you could give a more through explanation.

Ken: I guess as Yuko told you there are 7 masters and 7 servants. Each servant is in their own class. Each Servant also has its own special ability called a Nobel Phantasm.

Makoto: I'm guessing it's their super special move like in a video game.

Ken: Exactly. Now next, your wonder why you were dragged into this.

Makoto: Yeah. I also have this mark on my hand.

Makoto lifted up his hand and showed the back of it.

Makoto: Hay Yuko you have theses markings to correct?

Yuko: Yes.

She showed her's as well.

Ken: Those are the command seals. If you want your servant to do anything, and I mean anything, you want then it will allow you to do so. They cannot resist it unless they have high magical tolerance or find a loophole around it.

Makoto: So they can make the servant do anything no matter horrible it is as well...

Ken nodded and continued.

Ken: The reason why your were pick was because you have a wish.

Makoto: A wish?

Ken: A desire, and that desire has drawn you to the Holy Grail.

Makoto: Wait, the Holy Grail.

Ken: Yes. Even if you don't have a desire now you will have one later near the end of the Grail war. Do you have any questions?

Makoto: I have to ask about servants, what or who are they exactly?

Ken: A servant is a heroic spirit, a figure from history, or from the past to be more exact.

Makoto: So basically I just summoned a historical figure from the past.

Ken: Yes, though history is a bit off sometimes, a figure that appears as a male history could actually be a female.

Makoto: So wait King Arthur could have been a woman?

Yuko: Yup. It's pretty complicated. My Berserker however is strange, he's no figure I could have recognized and the closet thing would have Hassan the 100 faces. I want his name but I don't want to wast a command deal forcing him to, it would kind of be mean really. If he wants to keep his identity secret then so be it.

Makoto: So If I compete in this Grail War and somehow win then I can have any wish I want?

Ken: Yes, and your servant as well. But if you choose to participate you are putting your life on the line. You could be killed, innocents as well.

Makoto: Innocent people could get involved as well.

Ken: This was must be kept secret and out of public. If someone finds out then it could lead to disaster.

Makoto: So that's why Assassin wanted me dead. He told me that a non-Magnus like me couldn't live.

Ken: You don't know any magic.

Makoto: Nope. But still killing civilians, that's terrible. I'm not going let that happen.

Ken: So you came to your decision?

Makoto: Yes. I'll join the war to make sure nothing bad happens.

Ken: Excellent, I wish the world had more people like you. In fourth war the Grail caused the Great Fuyuki Fire, and in the fifth one of the participants said that one of the servants tried to use the Grail to destroy the world. Now can I have your name.

Makoto: It's Makoto... Makoto Grafen.

Ken's eyes widen.

Ken: Grafen.

Makoto: Well I'm off, Yuko you coming?

Ken: Hang on, I need to talk to my nice.

Makoto: Uh ok.

Makoto left the building and then told Berserker that she be out. He and Saber then left.

Yuko: So Uncle Ken, why did you make me stay behind.

Ken: Look be carful around him.

Yuko: Makoto? Why?

Ken: Well it's because of his father, I heard that a name Grafen is infamously known through the world of Magnuses.

Yuko: I never heard of it.

Ken: That's because the crimes the Grafen's caused aren't subjects to be talked about, their crimes are not to spoken about in public. They are discussed through the church and High ranking mages.

The view of Ken and Yuko disappear as we come into view of Saber and Makoto near the forest with Saber ahead of Makoto.

Ken(voice over): Look be carful around him and make sure that he doesn't become like the other Grafen's.

Saber makes a motion to tell Makoto to stop.

Makoto: Saber?

Saber: Show yourself!

Ken(voice over): And if he dose ever becomes like them.

A figure then jumped out from the forest and rushed past Saber.

Saber: Makoto!

Ken(voice over): Kill him.

The figure swung at Makoto everything went black.

(Do do do cliffhanger! Sorry for that. I hope enjoyed his chapter. Next chapter will be mostly fighting. See you soon!)
