Elisabeth hung up the phone. She just talked with her brother. Apperently he just summoned a servant, a saber going by the name of Miyamoto Musashi. She was surprised he told her the name of his servant. He didn't know she was a master, but there was still a threat of another master tapping phones around the city, looking for the mention of the Holy Grail war, or someone with mind reading magic. Thinking about that gave her the idea to tap the phones herself. She has the means to do it. After thinking about that for a while she moved on to more important matters. Nathan summoned a servant already. She hoped it would take him more time so she could find a suitable catalyst. However, she had no time to do that. She had to prepare the summoning right now. She searched her whole house. It is rather small so it wasn't much work. She finaly found a rather old looking jewel. It was scratched up so it must have seen better times. I guess this will have to do. She removed the carpet of her living room, moved the couch, TV and table into a corner and made the summoning circil just like her brother described it to her. She stepped into the middle of it and started chanting. Her brother didn't tell her exactly what she was supposed to chant, but she did some research and discovered that it doesn't really matter what you say, just what you mean. Hero of the past, heed my call Come into this world and be my sword Stand infront of me and be my shield May your weapon be the one to pearce the heavens May your armor be the one to stop heavens wrath I offer you my life for your service Answer me! As she finished the chant a bright light came from underneth her. It was so bright she staggered back and fell onto her couch. As the light faded away and her eyes adjusted she saw her servant standing within the circil. Now I ask you, are you my servant? |

Far beyond mortal coils, the warrior king waited for a call from the world. He had lived a good live and though his legend was distorted by time, there were still these who called upon him. A single temple that worshipped him as a god, peasants and people that honoured his memory, they were the ones he answered normally. It was the job of a Heroic Spirit to answer the prayers of ones people. Hero of the past, heed my call Sleepy eyes opened to answer once again to the words of Gaia. Come into this world and be my sword A feeling of confusion appeared in impenetrable darkness. Was that the voice of a young women? Stand infront of me and be my shield Curiosity filled the king and he listened to the words. They were certainly spoken with strength of heart. He had been a protector before, but he had failed at that…. still. May your weapon be the one to pearce the heavens That was quite a bold thing to declare. The smirk appeared on a invisible face and if it had been possible, he would have laughed out. May your armor be the one to stop heavens wrath Yes, he had decided. He would follow this call. Everything was there, need, strength and a reason. I offer you my life for your service Ah! A worthwhile price for his strength… Answer me! Thunder lashed out and light radiated off the summoning circle. It became brighter until it was impossible to see anything. A form grew out of the light, first slow and then faster and faster. All in all, it took less then 10 seconds for it to form fully. Eyes that were closed upon the summoning opened to look at a young woman who was half-sitting half-lying on a strange piece of furniture, couch, declared something in the back of his head. Long brown hairs obscured the woman's face for a moment before he could discover blue eyes. It took her a moment to regain her bearing and then she stood once again. Now I ask you, are you my servant? The king listened to the words. They were spoken clearly, most likely prepared in some way. A part of him felt irked that he would be the servant of anyone, even if only in title, but there were so many good things that this chance could bring. His dark armour was prominently displayed when he took his mace and smashed the flat end on the ground. The sound of the straining ground was heard as he declared formally: "I have followed your summoning under the designation of Lancer. My weapon shall destroy your enemies and my strength shall stop any sword." The small smile never left his face and he continued, now much less serious. "With this, our contract is completed. Do we have any plans, or do you wish to make conversation first?" |

In front of Elisabeth stood a man claid in armor. The armor was mostly red, black and gray, but there were some other colors, then again those could just be reflections of the street lights coming through the window. On his head was a golden helmet, jewels much like the one she used as a catalyst, imbedded into it. A few locks of dark hair could be seen beneath the helmet. In his hand was a mace, longer then the ones Elisabeth saw at museums, but the man held it with such ease you would think he didn't even feel it. His eyes focused on Elisabeths face for a second and then he slammed the flat end of his mace into the floor. Elisabeth thought the man was a classic representation of a macho male. She disliked him already. She wanted to make a remark on how his manly pride probably just ruined her floor, but she was stopped by the man answering her previous question, a smile on his face. "I have followed your summoning under the designation of Lancer. My weapon shall destroy your enemies and my strength shall stop any sword." Elisabeth liked the mans attitude less and less, but at least he was confident in his abilities. She just hoped he wasn't all talk. "With this, our contract is completed. Do we have any plans, or do you wish to make conversation first?" That changed Elisabeth's opinion of him just a bit. He cut straight to the chase, obviously a strong willed individual. If he keeps his brain out of his pants he might become pleasant company. "Conversation sounds good. I'd like to know you better before I come up with any plans." That, and she wanted to see just how big of a self-centered asshole he was. "First let me introduce myself. My name is Elisabeth Cromwell and we are currently at my house." She noticed her skirt was a bit wrinkled, so she fixed it. Then she waited for the man to introduce himself. Edited by LaRiS64, Mar 24 2013, 10:39 PM.

The warrior king waited for the young woman to speak. His eyes wandered around and he wondered whether he would have to fight soon. But this didn't look like a battlefield. When the other woman, Elisabeth, introduced herself, he decided that it would most likely be some time before a fight would begin. That was just alright with him. Battle was never what he sought. The weapon he held vanished with a swish of his hand and he nodded in her direction. A small bow of his head was all that he showed. Though he was no longer king, he still had to honour his old home and no king would bow to another. "I am Duryodhana of India, oldest of the Kaurava, but you most likely don't know my legend." The woman didn't appear to be of Indian descent and even there his legend was not the most important. His enemies had become much more famous to his knowledge. A small touch of sadness was in his words. He didn't regret his life, but to have his legend seen like this. The grail had only given him vague information of the modern world, but what it had to say about his legend was far from nice. "Your Master clairvoyance should show you my skills and stats." What next? Ah yes, she wanted to know more about him. "When I was alive, I liked to wrestle and as one could see," He nodded in the direction of his hand where the mace had been. Again, the small smile was playing on his face. "I was also taught the art of mace combat. Hmmmm..." He murmured to himself while thinking. "I dislike cold weather and especially rain, preferring the light of the sun over these." He looked out of the window for a moment, as if trying to make sure that the sun would shine the next morning by power of will alone. Afterwards, he once again faced his Master. "What of you Master Elisabeth? Or is there anything in specific you wish to know." A small scowl appeared on his face when he pronounced her name. Everything else had come instinctually, but he had the feeling the name had come out incorrectly. |

As he finished his short speech Elisabeth thought how wrong she was. The man was actually pleasent. There was no reason for him not to be her friend. She started searching her memory for Duryodhana. You would be surprised by what I know of you, Emperor of India, friend of Karna. She knew more about him, but from what Nathan told her myths and legends are usually wrong about the way they portray heroes. She gave him a friendly smile and continiued. I'm not very special. I like reading myths, I have some training in martal arts, more training in spell casting, I'm financially secured and I preffer colder weather, as long as it isn't too cold to get out of the house. Sunny with a cool breeze is ideal. With that she started studying the man's stats and abilities. The man is strong and agile. A perfect meele combatant. His magic resistance is very high, he could probably defeat a caster without too much of a problem. I've got a good servant. As she finished thinking she looked at Duryodhana. I've got enough information. If you want to go look for other Masters and Servants we can go now. Or if you would prefer learning the lay of the land I've got some maps around the house and I could get some sleep. |

Duryodhana's eyes widened when he heard the words of his title. Yet, it was the name of his close friend that got the biggest reaction. He actually coughed for a moment. Sure, he had expected to be recognized, but not so soon and from someone far away from his homeland. He had expected his Master to search for his name in a library, or something similar. A chuckle escaped him when he managed to catch himself. "I somehow got myself a smart Master, how lucky I am. It is fortunate of you to have such a hobby, especially considering the theme of this war. I wonder, are some of the gods in a nice mood for such a good thing to happen?" His eyes wandered over the place. His old instincts were still as awake as on the day of his death. But he couldn't help but think about his Masters likings. Well, he didn't really have a problem with her preferring cold weather. That is, so long as the cold stays away from him personally. At least she didn't dislike the sun. The smile on his face turned into a frown when she asked what he wanted to do. "Hmmm... I was never good with maps or anything like that. If possible, I would prefer to look at the land myself, but you don't have to come with me if you don't want to Master. Rest is important for humans and I don't need to sleep anymore." He nodded to himself and held his chin with one hand. Of course, he wouldn't refuse if his Master wanted to come too, but it wasn't necessary. His reserves were full to the brim and maybe he could find a Servant or a hideout while looking through town. |

"I was never good with maps or anything like that. If possible, I would prefer to look at the land myself, but you don't have to come with me if you don't want to Master. Rest is important for humans and I don't need to sleep anymore." The tought of rest for Elisabeth was like water to a man stranded in a desert. The summoning drained her. But she couldn't let her servant go alone. That would be too risky. "I'm afraid I can't let you go alone. Besides, I'm not that sleepy. I'm going to get dressed." Elisabeth's terrible at lying, but she hoped Lancer wouldn't notice. She turned around and went towards the door, but she hit the corrner of her table and fell face first on floor. Expecting Lancer to laugh she quickly got up, blushing from embarrassment. Could you clear this place up while I get ready? Thanks. Not waiting for him to answer she quickly exit the living room and ran to her bedroom. |

Servant Lancer blinked confused. His eyes followed his Master until she fell down and he wondered whether he should have caught her. But she didn't seem to even notice his lack of reflexes and almost jumped upwards. She ordered him to take care of the mess that was the room and left to unknown places, most likely wherether she had her clothes. With a troubled expression, Duryodhana turned in all directions. Now, how should he best do this? He didn't dislike common labour, but hadn't gotten many chances to work as a King. "Still," He said to himself while chuckling. "to summon a Heroic Spirit and then order it to clean up a room. Surely, never has there been such an event." Whatever, it couldn't be that hard to tidy the place a bit. But, where should he move the different things? He looked at the strange item, a television if the information of the grail was correct. Highly interesting, but he would look closer later. He knew what it did, so it would most likely come into the centre of the room, right? The sitting places would be in a half-circle around the television, but first came the carpet of course. Actually, that could even be fun. And thus came it, that the great emperor of India, Duryodhana of the Kaurava, went and cleaned up a living room. |

While she was getting dressed, Elisabeth though how big of a fool she must have looked like to Lancer. Falling face first, and then ordering him to clean up her house. Gods in a good mood. Yeah, right. She put on her coat and went to her desk opening a drawer. She took a round object wraped up in a cloth. She put it into her coat's inside pocket and went downstairs. Wondering what Duryodhana was doing while she got dressed she entered the living room. There was Lancer, doing what Elisabeth told him. She didn't expect him to really clean up the living room, she just told him that to keep him from laughing. "You know, if being a servant doesn't work out for you," she said, a smile on her face, "you could always become a maid." "You coming?" Elisabeth said exiting the room and walking to the front door. She opened the door waiting for Duryodhana to exit. "Ladies first." |

When his Master returned, the king had done a good amount of work and was actually slightly proud of a job well done. Unfortunately, Elisabeth just had to make fun of him. His face developed a disapproving scowl and he actually looked a bit unhappy when speaking next. "A bit of hard work has never harmed anyone and is good for the moral. I have seen many workers doing their jobs with fervour and concentration. Cleaning is a respectable task. It was strange that this part of his nature had appeared under these circumstances. His aura had changed almost totally. Where there had been a carefree young man and a trained warrior before, there was the form of a king now. Although it had not been his favourite job, Duryodhana had learnt how to act when reprimanding someone else. Still, his words lacked any malice and were not spoken harshly. It didn't take more then a few seconds for the aura to disappear again and the smile returned. "Oh?" He spoke. "Sorry, but I think I am not taking the door." The dark-skinned man seemed to become translucent and became almost invisible. Then he winked at the young woman and flew upwards. It didn't take long before he vanished through the ceiling. A muffled voice could be heard from outside. "I think I will watch from above. Don’t' worry, I won't stay near you for safety reasons. If you see anything interesting, just tell me." Leaving to A peaceful nightwalk Edited by Heaven Canceler, Mar 28 2013, 10:07 AM.
