Both Berserker and Lancer faced at Ren, Ren looked at his left arm seeing its armored like Berserker own, he can dodged their attacks and try to defend himself but he looked at Lancer and saw he's hesitating
Lancer: Saber...Saber master, im sorry
Saber: Master, allow me to fight. You can't do this on your own
Ren turn his head at Saber and irisviel
Ren: I can hold them for long, just protect irisviel and run. Run as far as you can
Irisviel shakes her head, Both Berserker and Lancer face their weapons at Ren
Ren: Go now-!
Irisviel: It's all right, Ren. but please don't die. We believe in you!
Ren: believe..in me..?
Ren faced at the servants and he gives a throat
Ren mind: Kiritsugu is here..? Then i'll buy some time..
Ren clench his fist and the Spear summon on his armor hand, he was surprised it came back but he get ready, two servants charged at Ren but suddenly lightning strike everywhere seeing Isankadar riding towards Lancer and Berserker, Lancer move out of the way but berserker got knocked over. They looked at Iskandar confused
Iskandar: ah.. This is a tough one
The bererker disappeared
Iskandar: as you can see, our black friend will be retiring for the evening. Master of Lancer. I know not from whence you are watching, but don't be sully a battle between knights with your petty tricks. Have Lancer withdraw, if you insist on humiliating him further, then I shall join Saber and her master. Together, the three of us will annihilate your servant. What will it be?
Lancer master: Withdraw, Lancer. That's enough for tonight
Ren sigh in relief
Lancer: my thanks, King of Conquerors.
Iskandar: It was nothing. I enjoy watching the flowers of a battlefield in bloom
Lancer looked at Saber and she nodded at him, he did the same and he nodded at Ren. the spear and the armor disappeared and he put a thumb up seeing Lancer disappeared
Ren: say.. King of Conquerors... When you first arrived, what was your intent? I'm sure we like to know
Iskandar: I try not to think too hard about such things. Saber... first settle matters with Lancer and then i shall face the victor be it your servant or Lancer
He looked at Saber: King of Knights, goodbye for now! I hope to enjoy our next meeting as much as I did this one.
He looked at Waver: Boy, you got anything nice to say to the lady and her son?
He pick up Waver and saw he looks like he's lifeless
Iskandar: i do wish he'd man up a bit like you kid
He rest waver down and rides away: Farewell!
Ren turn around to looked at Saber and Irisviel but Irisviel gasp as she was Ren chest
Irisviel: Ren, your chest
They run to him and Irisviel heals it
Ren: thank you
Saber: Master.. Thank you but for my foolish action.. Your wound has been curse.. To undo it i must deal with lancer first
Ren: you do what you must.. Saber
Irisviel hugs him and Ren was stun
Irisviel: Thank you, Ren. we survived. Thanks to you...
Ren: um.. i ..i just don't want you or saber hurt...that's all
Saber: the battle is only beginning, Master. With your newfound power. Masters will try to hunt you down
Ren: My...father told me everything about the Holy grail.. I know what is going to happen.. And i'm willing to face it
At The underground of the Church, Kirei heard everything about the fight. The Female assassin appears behind him and called him
Female assassin: Begging your pardon, Master Kirei
He turned around, looking at her: what is it?
Female assassin: have you known that your son is a...king?
Kirei: No
Female assassin: what about his mother?
He stay quiet and looked away: you can go, Assassin
Assassin nod and disappeared. Kirei was in deep throught of his son being a king but King of what and what his mother, Claudia is. A Queen? Or something else

Chapter 3: Unleashed
At the small highway, Irisviel was driving like a mad woman, Ren held on tightly on the seat trying not to fall
Irisviel: See? See? It goes really fast!
Saber: Y-you're a surprisingly good driver
They ran over a bump and they almost fly but the car landed on the road
Irisviel: I know, right?! You may not believe it, but I practice all the time. Of all the toys Kiritsugu has brought me, this is my favourite!
Saber: toys?
Ren: huh?
Irisviel: At the castle, I could only drive around the courtyard, but this is great!
Saber: Shouldn't we have hired a professional driver?
Ren nods agreeing with Saber
Irisviel: No, that would be boring! I mean, it's dangerous! What if the enemy attacks us?
Saber: That's true- stop!
They pull brakes and the car stop, Ren saw someone at the road
Saber: Irisviel... Master.. Get out of the car and stay close to me
Ren: That's a servant...
They got out of the car and slowly approached the mysterious servant but they kept their distance. The servant bow for some odd reason and he spoke
??: ive come for you, my holy virgin
Ren: huh?
Irisviel: you know him?
Saber: i've never laid eyes on him
??: oh no! You say you have forgotten this face?
Saber: forgotten? I've never met you in my life. Perhaps you mistake me for another?
Gilles: Its me! Gilles de Rais! My one prayer has been for your resurrection, and i've spent my life waiting for a miracle to reunite us! To the end, Ive come all the way, to the end of time! Jeanne!
When Ren heard those names, it sounds familiar to him
Irisviel: Jeanne?
Saber: i know not your name, nor have i any idea who this Jeanne might be
Gilles: No... you cant have forgotten... not your former identity!
Saber: As you've given me your name, in accordance with the chivalric code, I must give you my own. My name is Arturia, heir to Uther Pendragon and King of Britain. I enter this battle in the Saber class
Gilles: How tragic! How sad... She's lost her memory and gone mad! Curse him.. Curse him!
He start to punch the ground
Glies: Curse the King of Darkness! Such cruel tortures God inflicts upon my beautiful maiden!! He stole my Jeanne d'Arc away from me-!
Ren: my gush enough! You might break your hand!
He stops and looked at Ren, his eyes pop out and glare at him
Gilles: how...are you here... you should of perished from that war
Ren: what-?
Saber slices the ground and transforms to her armor form as she gets in front of Ren: if you further mock all the other heroes' prayers, and if you threaten my master again... the next strike will be real. Now rise!
Gilles: has your heart been healed so tightly, Jeanne? Very well, then. If drastic measures are called for, I will have to prepare.
He stands up: I swear to you, Jeanne... i will free your soul from the King of Darkness Curse
He bow and disappeared
Irisviel: it's difficult to deal with one who ignores what you are saying.
Saber: Next time, I shall strike before he can speak. His type infuriates me
Irisviel looked at Ren as he just looking at the road in thought
-
In a Castle, Artoria, Irisviel and Ren were talking to Kirisugu as he discussing plans
Kiritsugu: There is a powerful barrier over Mt. Enzou with Ryudou Temple at its center. Because of that, anything other than natural spirits like servants... can only enter via the temple path. Keep that in mind as you are using Saber and don't do reckless things. There are three other spots where the leylines converge. Tohaska manor and the Fuyuki Chapel. And... this new residential area east of the city center. consequently , this means that there are four locations in Fuyuki...that have all the Spiritual characteristics needed for the Grail to appear
Irisviel: When the war enters its second phase and there are fewer Servants left, We'll have to secure one of these as a base of operations, won't we?
Kiritsugu: That's right. That covers the lay of the land. Do you have any questions?
Irisviel looked at Saber and Ren: is there anything that you aren't clear on?
Ren stay quiet
Artoria: It was a perfectly adequate explanation
Irisviel looked at Kiritsugu: Kiritsugu, can we assume that all the others will go after Caster?
Kiritsugu: it's a safe bet... however, we have an advantage as far as Caster is concerned. Out of whatever madness, He believes Saber to be his Jeanne d'Arc and somehow knows Ren... which is to our benefit. We need only wait for him to come to us
Ren: That is not enough. That dude needs to be punished.. We should take the fight to him before he can do anymore damage. If we wait, he will take advantage over us
He Ignores Ren and he notice
Kiritsugu: Iri, do you have a handle on the forest's barrier spells?
Irisviel: Yes. That's fine.. But our real problem is the curse on Ren's chest. Eighteen hours have passed since your defeat of Kayneth, but Ren's wounds haven't healed. Lancer must still live. Shouldn't we defeat the lancer first... so we can face Caster at full strength?
Kiritsugu: That isn't necessary. You just need to use your knowledge of the area...to confuse the enemy. Keeping Ren away from him
Irisviel: That means you won't have her fight Caster?
Kiritsugu: Someone else will deal with him even if we don't. The ones hunting Caster in a frenzy will make for better targets. Ill attack from their flanks and take them out
Ren starts to clench his fist and mumble: Kiritsugu... you are. What are you even thinking in that mind of yours?! You do an Insult to Heroic Spirits, Saber is my servant and she needs to fight! With this curse on me, she won't show her full strength against that love sick servant! Don't you trust the King of Knights?!
Irisviel: There's a truce against everyone but caster, isn't there?
Kiritsugu: It will be fine. This overseer of ours can't be trusted. He harbors assassin's master, and doesn't say anything about it. He may also be working with Tohsaka
Ren eyes widen
Ren mind: Tohsaka... Rin's father??
Kiritsugu: We should be skeptical of anything he does. All right. Dismissed
Ren looks down grinding his teeth in angar
-
Ren was in a room looking at himself in the mirror, he remembers the servants who called him king and Caster knows him, how he used servants abilities against them. He start to think
Ren: am i...even human..?
Artoira: Master?
Ren heard Artoira by the door
Ren: yeah?
Artoria: Maiya is here
Ren: ...okay
Ren looked at the mirror and he saw the door open seeing Maiya walked in and close the door
Ren: What do you want..?
Maiya: i see you still upset that i shot your servant-
Ren: that's his servant... she was my friend..
Maiya: I see.. Then im sorry
Ren looked at her
Maiya: I'm not good with kids.. But i did had one
Ren: what happened?
Maiya: I got separated from him.. Not knowing where he is or..if he's alive
Ren: What about the father?
She stayed quiet and she looked away: not around...
She looked at Ren: anyway.. Your father is chasing after you, he knows that you a king
Ren: ...i see- tsk!
Ren felt a strong pain but he disappeared
Maiya: What's wrong?
Ren: someones...closing in
-
The others gather up preparing, Kiritsugu and Maiya check their guns, irisviel looks in a crystal ball and saw kids
Irisviel: there they are
Artoira: Irisviel, the enemy is trying to lure us out. Those must be hostages. I have to go down and save them
Ren saw gillies next to the kids and he looked at them and smiled. Irisviel gasp
Irisviel: He knows we're watching!
He was talking and he grab a kid
Artoira: Dont!
They saw him squeezing the kid's head, destroying the kid's head. Ren was shock he just killed a kid and other kids started running
Ren: his bastard.. Saber, defeat Caster but be careful!
Artoria nod: I shall!
As she left, Ren was Irisviel was in fear of what she just witness, he pat her on the back and she looks at him
Irisviel: thank you
Ren nod and they watch Saber fighting Caster but end up surrounded by monsters
Kiritsugu: Is there still no sign of other masters entering the forest? Maiya, take iri, Ren and flee the castle. Head in the opposite direction as Saber and Caster
Maiya nod
Irisviel: I can't stay here?
Kiritsugu: With Saber fighting away from you, it isn't safe. One of the others is sure to have had the same idea
Kiritsugu looked at Ren and Ren did the same, he nod at Ren and Ren was slightly surprised and nodded back but then the same pain he had came back and he notice Irisviel did the same thing
Ren: irisviel?
Kiritsugu: What's wrong, iri?
Irisviel: it appears another has arrived
Ren: it's Lancer.. His master his here in the castle
-
Ren, irisviel and Maiya were walking in the forest, irisviel stop and looked behind
Maiya: madam?
She looked at Mayia
Maiya: Please hurry
She walked off but Ren saw she still standing there looking down in worry, she then gasp and maiya notice
Maiya: Madam?
Irisviel: another intruder. Did you feel that too Ren?
Ren nods: They are waiting where we are heading..
Maiya: understood. Let's circle around to the north side, then
She still didn't move
Maiya: Madam?
Irisviel: Ren.. could you go look for us another way?
Ren: um.. Yeah sure
Ren leap on the trees and head north
Irisviel: the person who is waiting... is Kirei Kotomine
Maiya: ?!! kirei Kotomine?
Irisviel: Maiya, your orders from Kiritsugu were to protect me and Ren, right?
Maiya: Yes...but-
Irisviel: But what? We mustn't let him get to Ren, no matter what
She tilted her head slightly with a soft smile: is that what you're thinking?
Maiya; Madam. How did you—
She walked to her: what a coincidence, i was thinking the same thing. Kirei Kotomine... He probably represents the biggest threat to Ren and Kiritsugu. You and I will hold him off here. Understood, Maiya?
She avoided her gaze but she looked at irisviel: I apologize. But please prepared yourself, madam
Irisviel: I will. Dont worry about me. Do what you must do. What you believe to be necessary, not what Kiritsugu told you to do
Maiya: Yes, ma'am, is there something else?
Irisviel shakes her head: no. The human heart is a funny thing, isn't it?
-
When Ren came back, he didn't see Irisviel and Maiya
Ren: did they leave without me..?
He heard gunshots and his eyes widened: No no no!
Ren leap on the trees trying to get to where the gunshots coming from but something tied him together and fall down, it wa a white string and he was stuck
Ren: what magic is this?!
Ren crawls like a worm and when he saw an opening, he saw Kirei step on Maiya stomach, irisviel was there and he looked at her
Maiya: Madam.. don't!
Kirei: Woman, this may come as a surprise, but i havent come here to defeat you. I'm here for my son
Irisviel: I know that, Kirei Kotomine
Kirei was shock
Irisviel: I know what you're going to do to him. But I will not allow it. You will never reach Ren Knight and Kiritsugu Emiya. We will stop you
Ren was confused of that last name
Kirei: knight?
Maiya: He is an executor... an expert at hunting mages! Normal magic won't be enough to stop him!
Irisviel summon strings but it turns dark, Kirei was a but surprised by her magic
Irisviel: they taught me more... than me acting so defenceless. They taught me how to live and to survive! Shape 1st leben!
The strings transformed into a huge eagle. She sent it at Kirei and he dodged, it flew back to him and he punched it but it wrapped around his arm binded his arms together. He stares at her then run to her
Maiya: madam!
Iirisviel: it won't be that easy!
She used the strings from his hand and slam him on the tree, tiring him there
Irisviel: Maiya! Finish him!
Ren saw Kirei breaking the tree and managed to break it off and break off the string that somehow hurt Ren's head. He heard a voice in his head
??: i never love her...nor my son
Ren: w..what was that?
Ren saw Kirei punch Mayia and he stare at irisviel, he run fast to her and grab her by the neck, choking her
Kirei: women, i have one question. It appears that you challenged me... with the intent to protect Ren and Kriitsugu Emiya. Why are you defending my son? You do not possess Command Seals, so you are not the Einzbern Master. Most likely, you are a homunculus, charged with protecting the Grail Vessel. Someone like that could not be stupid enough.. To risk going to the front lines of the battle. So I ask again... why are you protecting my son from me?
Maiya grab his leg and he looked at her, he looked back at irisviel and he notice something between them
Assassin appears: Master Kirei. Caster, as well as Lacner and his master, have left the forest. Saber will arrive shortly but Ren couldn't be found
Kirei got upset and flicked Maiya's hand off, stepped on her neck, he let Irisvil's neck and grabbed her mouth, stabbed her in the stomach. Ren eyes widen in shock and his angar rosed
Ren: NOOO!!
Huge wind burst out where Ren was, Kirei looked and his eyes widen in shock, he saw Berserker appears and he roared in rage
Kirei: Berserker master here?
Irisviel was bleeding out but her eyes narrowed at the berserker. He calms down and lower his head but suddenly looked at Kirei
??: Father....
The voice sounds deep...distorted but sounds like Ren.
Kirei: Ren? Heh, so you fully transformed into Berserker. I never expect you can copy servants' power however... these women challenged me to protect you
He threw Irisviel to the ground: why don't you come with me, King of Darkness?
Ren stay quiet but started
Kirei: you shouldn't feel any emotions for these women, they are nothing but objects. I teached you everything about these people, servants, even masters. But you showed you cared for them, saving them. I should've killed you and your mother when you were in her womb-
Ren didn't say anything but his armor body start to shake, red aura glows within the armor, charging his rage and he roared in rage
Ren?: i will kill you, Kotomine!!!!!
