Chapter 4: Her Thoughts

[A/N: Okay, now u guys, I really want to be honest about ur thoughts about this chapter.

Well, it's nothing grand to be honest guys.

This chap would explain the FGO element added in the story if u guyz are wondering.

Just point out some errors or something if you find some, okay?

And btw, this chap is literally a copy on one chapter in another FF so I'm going to post this early.

The name is 'Kabbalah: Passive Conqueror' in fanfiction.(n)et. Go check it out, it's a FGOxDAL crossover.

Though this chap is mostly copied and have only little modifications, this story would be different from that. U get it right?

Okay, here's the chap my friends~]

<Undisclosed Time and Location>

[??? PoV]

It was supposed to be a normal rayshift and their destination closer to the present times. The place was similar enough to lostbelts and singularities, albeit, on a smaller scale.

Senpai said it would be fine. She said it would totally okay, just like how they've conquered all of those singularities… and lostbelts.

This phenomenon was just small and wouldn't even affect the timeline. Sion-sama said it would be fine if left alone as it would disappear on its own, even Da Vinci-chan agreed on that thought. Even without even uttering any words, Mr. Holmes already figured the thought.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this destination is from 'another world' which Da Vinchi-chan also added along with the words 'paradoxical phenomenon' or 'foreign timeline distortion' which she had never said to us before.

Even so, there's no need to bother it, they say.

It would disappear on its own even without their interference.

To add, they also said that some group or person like 'Chaldea' would handle it. Though the problem of that is that it is considered to be a 'Foreign' entity.

But Senpai insisted that we must resolve that place at the given time and if possible, work with that 'foreign being' and judge whether it's identity would be a threat to Chaldea or not for insurance.

In response, I totally agreed on her. I should have expected that will be her answer to all her troubles.

I fully trust Senpai as Senpai fully trust her Kouhai, that would be me.

But doubt lingers within my heart and this is not the same as the previous ones. I feel that this meaningless singularity held some strange qualities that I could feel.

The restriction that only female Servants qualified to join Senpai's journey for no reason should be sufficient enough to make it suspicious. Very suspicious in fact.

But she said its okay, just like with the other singularities. They would be together till they managed to resolve this phenomenon. I smiled warmly at the thought. I will never doubt Senpai, ever.

But what is this vague feeling…

It is concerning. I tried to voice out my thoughts to Senpai but she only said it would be fine.

Yes, it would be fine.

As long as it's Senpai, it will.

Even after that, I still kept my dubious moment to myself, there's no need for Senpai to concern me anymore since she already gave her guarantee. I curled my fist to my chest as I hold on that thought.

After a while, we were now preparing to rayshift.

I could even see Da Vinci-chan waving at me, saying that she would expect us to remove the anomaly on this stray singularity. Sion-sama is now doing the statistics and prepared the device.

I eyed Senpai once more, she just smiled at me.

How could I ever betray that beautiful smile? Even if I'm worrying a lot just like how I did previously on previous singularities. I shouldn't let my gut feeling be an obstacle to our mission.

If this feeling won't let go then I will tell Senpai after we arrive there. She needs to know this once again and remind her to stay vigilant, I thought.

Little did I know that Senpai's assuring grin would be the last time I would see.

The rayshift was compromised midway. The pathway became faulty and we were thrown away from our lifeline and destination.

I was suddenly struck with ill-gotten worry. I tried to grab Senpai but I was too late.

'Ah...'

I was thrown away from her. The gap between us grew larger until I no longer see her.

'SSSEEEEENNNNPPPAAAAAIIII!'

I shouted with all my might as I saw Senpai disappeared from the horizon. I floated aimlessly within a confined space amidst the chaotic dissonance. I desperately tried to reach her even though I could no longer see her.

My thoughts stopped working at that moment.

My chest tightened as my breaths turned ragged.

I was supposed to be at her side and I fail it.

There's no time for sorrow.

Everything was too fast for me to notice.

Eventually, I suffered from a blackout.

I don't know how much time has passed.

But the first thing that made me notice was the blaring of siren from afar.

My eyes are still closed shut. I don't know how I would react when I realized that Senpai and me were separated for somewhat reason. At least, the only thing that made me relieve a little was how my feet landed on something solid. Still, my legs felt weak and lanky, not from physical exhaustion but on the thought of Senpai's disappearance.

I hoped that Da Vinci-chan and Sion-sama has found a way to retrieve us but that's just a wishful thought. I need to open my eyes.

Did I ended up on our destination? Am I back to the Chaldea? Or worse…

I shook that thought in my head and forced my eyes opened.

I found myself deep center in a crater, large enough to be mistaken for an asteroid. I was confused for a moment but I looked up and saw a clear blue sky.

And something familiar formed right on it.

It was a ring expanding for several hundred meters in the sky leaving a clear blue horizon inside it.

I confirmed that I was in the strange unknown place and I am still clueless whether this is the place that we were intended to resolve or not at first, but after seeing that, I confirmed my suspicions to be true.

"A singularity...?"

Singularity. Quite a vivid term on my mind.

We and Senpai already completed all the singularities and lostbelts that occured in human history. But this facts before me confirms that it still can occur despite the absence of [Solomon] or [BEAST777].

"First and foremost, locating Senpai is my priority...."

Yes, finding Senpai is the most important thing that I should do right now.

Although there were other Servants besides me who joined the rayshift that could be with her right now, I still couldn't put myself in relief without confirming Senpai's condition with my own eyes.

It was then.

UUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu—

The blaring sirens earlier also did not escape from my notice and I looked around and felt my breathing hitched for a moment.

Tall skyscrapers and buildings, all around me, just like Shinjuku but at the same time I knew it wasn't.

Does that mean I am in the present time? No, impossible. I must not think of it immediately as if I'm already in conclusion.

A sound similar to jet plane caught my attention and I looked up. Pinpoint of unknown variables were present and could be a dozens of them. If Senpai would be here, she would try to talk them out but this time I'm on my own so therefore, I must recognize them as an immediate threat no matter what.

I was already donned in my Shielder armor and I welcomed this get-up so I materialized my shield before I was too late.

The unknown variables were just too fast for me to escape and when they finally came closer, I realized that they were some sort of Valkyries(?) but something more high-tech. I leaned my shield close to me.

No matter how they looked innocuous the women, I must remain vigilant no matter what. It is a hard lesson that Senpai gave to me. They finally floated midair using some kind of magic and tech I've never heard of as they revealed their heavy weapon that made me gulp in nervousness. I don't want to rely entirely on my assumptions but I felt those weapon could really hurt me, even if I'm a complete Heroic Spirit. My gut feeling says those weapon can hurt Heroic Spirits too.

"Higher ups had immediately designated her <Codename>...." One of them uttered.

BEEEEEP!

An audible *beep* then resounded within the area. After that, each and every one of them pointed their weapons at me with clear hostility in their eyes.

"There's no escape… <Knight>" They said with contempt as they pointed the muzzle at me.

Holding that thought... wait, <Knight>? Who's Knight? Are they were referring at me?

I, Mash Kyrielight, couldn't help but ponder in wonder.

[A/N: Quite short but a meaningful chap I guess? This literally explains some lore behind this story.

You thought the BEAS— erm, Gudako, was just a random name added in the class and from the call???

As Master Oogway said—

'There are no Coincidences in the World'

.

Also, the FGO element wouldn't dominate the whole storyline if u r wondering. Though they will get some noticable screentime as well.. hwehehe...
