Outside was raining, and Inside had doubled trouble.
Shinji lost his chance to go home.
"Oh, it's raining, will you stay for dinner?" Said Shirou, noticing some wet marks on the back of Shinji's shirt.
Saber, who was beside Shirou, looked at Shinji with a small frown and then walked past Shinji.
Shinji looked at Shirou, took a sarcastic expression, and said, "Hah! And eat low-quality food?"
He wanted to try Shirou's food he had read about in his past life, but acted rudely to go as far away from the two heroines as possible.
'I just can't run from the city, right?' Thinking so, he was walking past Shirou, but then he heard.
"You're not being honest, Nii-san." Sakura's voice came from behind Shinji, and he felt like it was a death sentence.
'Can't you just be with your crush and let me in peace?' He thought his face showed clearly his emotion to Sakura, who just grinned while ignoring it.
'I guess if I took over this body over 4 years ago, I would have way more peace.' Finally, controlling his expression, he was opened his mouth to refuse his stay so he could go home and get the damned book and wait to give to her.
Although he didn't know the book didn't exist anymore.
He knew she wouldn't kill him if he didn't step over his line; she still somewhat needed him, but it didn't mean she would protect him.
Of course, He could still help her, but what if he became like Shinji? Is her body worth his life? Even though Shinji didn't really have pride after begging Tohsaka to become his ally, this Shinji had pride, and although it was a really hot body, he couldn't lie...
Nonetheless, he planned to live a good life; the world was full of beauties, and he just had to get as far from any of the other crazies of this world.
"Here," said Sakura while giving towels to Shinji.
Shinji unconsciously took the towels.
After looking at what he took in his hands, an expression of confusion appeared on his face.
Sakura's expression didn't change; she was still grinning, but Shinji felt chills running through his body.
Sakura then pointed to Shinji's neck and said, "You need to take a bath and change clothes."
Shinji yet again tried to open his mouth to say he didn't bring any spare ones.
But as if Sakura knew what he would say, she said, "Senpai, can Nii-san use your spare shirts?"
Shinji and Shirou weren't so different in build or height.
Shirou didn't expect to have his name called; he could feel their relationship had changed. Shinji looked friendlier.
"Yes! I will get a new set to you," Said Shirou. He didn't expect his house to get so full when he woke up.
When he woke up, it was just his everyday.
-Early today-
A blonde girl appeared in front of him, calling herself Saber.
"It's too early?" Said the girl.
She was thinking about the visions she had just had. Shirou didn't seem to be attacked by Lancer, nor could she see Rin close by.
explaining the details of the Holy Grail war to Shirou the quickly as possible, and she said: "Shirou, you will need a good ally to win this war"
She knew Shirou wasn't talented with magic. She knew his potential but to reach any he would need allies, preferably Rin.
By now, Rin would accept Shirou if she knew He was Saber's master.
She wouldn't accept if he were any other master, but Shirou was honest and someone Rin could trust.
She tried to tell Shirou some of the future content, but something stopped her mouth, making her realise she couldn't tell it to anyone.
Trying to get Rin to ally with Shirou, she sent him back to school.
Then later in the afternoon, she got to school, trying to meet Rin but she was gone, this change made Saber feel anxious.
- Back to present -
Shinji couldn't think of any other way to refuse.
Pulling Shinji to the bathroom, Sakura said: "You've changed Nii-san, did something good happen?"
Sakura could feel that Shinji had a magic circuit, although a weak one; it was still a magic circuit.
This made her feel displeased, but she hid it very well under her smile.
Touching Shinji felt less unpleasant, even... good?
Shinji didn't know, but he was unconsciously using his skill to please a girl with small touches, ofc if he wanted to, it would be way more effective.
Still, Sakura felt a heat growing under her legs; if it weren't Shirou's house, she would finish what she wanted this morning.
"I will bring the change of clothes." Said Sakura, closing the door.
Shinji didn't turn on the light of the bathroom
Shinji began to think, maybe Sakura wouldn't accept the book back. Like him, she had no desire to take part in this battle.
But he also knew that deep down it was all just an act, she liked to tease him, that was her way to take control over him.
Maybe if Sakura weren't so submissive, their relationship would be better. Shinji was from a family of magicians, but he was born without magic circuits.
His family fostered Sakura to take his place.
A child wishing for magic and then discovering it's impossible... It must've been a huge trauma to the young Shinji.
And the one chosen to take his place, so submissive, like poison disguised as a vaccine, he accepted it
Both brothers were using each other for their own gain at the end of the day...
And maybe that was Sakura's way to get revenge on the Matou Family.
Shinji felt his heart heavy, and so he soaked his whole body in the water.
Shinji felt his thoughts calm down.
*Shhhh* The door of the bathroom was opened.
A female took off her clothes.
And just when she was going to enter, Shinji's body emerged from the water.
The girl lost her balance and almost fell over her butt.
