Fate/Impetus

"Sorry, I just didn't expect..." Takeshi trails off, gesturing at Saber's fashion choices for the evening, he steps back and to the side, letting the two in.

<Hey this thing has ben driving all over town dumping it's load everywhere so its not surprising. I'm just saying we need to make pit stop.>

"No comment." Rin said simply.

"I like them. They're comfortable and easy to wear." Saber explained.

"No. Comment." Rin repeated herself, gritting her teeth. The Tohsaka heir marched into the suite, passing by a very confused Archer, and set the paper bag down on the table. "Anyway, I figured out how we can beat Lancer."

---

<Dammit, just hurry up, will you?>

"and what might this plan be?"

Now the younger magus smiled, indicating the paper bag on the counter. "I went shopping in the foreign markets earlier this evening and picked up some dog meat. In Gaelic mythology, Cú Chulainn was ultimately killed because he broke a geas - he can't eat dog. However, he's also under a geas to never refuse hospitality from a woman...which includes being offered dog meat. Get it now?"

"All right, we have a plan of attack, now we need to find where he and his master are stationed."

"Right. Has Archer seen anything?"

Archer wordlessly shook her head - while in Spirit Form she had been on the rooftop watching Team Saber approach, but she hadn't seen anything else yet.

At the temple, Aaron contacts his friend for directions for an advanced magic weapon. By combining the materials advanced by Caster, Aaron was able to build the equivalent of a servant level ballistic missile system.

"Well, we know there are two obvious candidates, mato's and Einzberns." Takeshi says, counting them off on his fingers.

Rin nodded. "The Matou mansion is closer, we can start there."

Takeshi gets up, opening the door for the others. "let's be on our way then."

"What now?" Vince whispered to Kirika. Was Assassin still looking to fight? Either way, it was imperative that Rider not find him. He cast another illusion spell, this time the sound of a dropping book at the other end of the library.

Rider's head snapped to the sound, and he strode over to the nearest bookshelf, planting a foot on it and delivering a powerful kick that sent it sliding and toppling over in the direction of the noise, creating a domino effect that, if Vince had been hiding where the sound was made, probably would have crushed him under at least one bookcase. Muttering something indistinct, the leader of the Argonauts started making his way in that direction, only for one of the bookcases to suddenly leap from the ground and slam into him, knocking him sprawling to the ground. He barely had time to recover and roll out of the way before Assassin's spear splintered the wood where he'd just been laying.

after changing his appearance again back to the employee of the day and filling up the comment mixer he then dover his chariot to matou mansion. <so when we get there how do you want to play it?>

<Well, I figured I'd stab them.>

takeshi stops about a block away from the mansion, gesturing to a nearby rooftop for Archer to take position in.

Archer obediently materialized atop said building, looking in the direction of Matou mansion. <Master, the front door has been destroyed. Another Servant has probably already attacked the mansion.>

Rin and Saber (the latter having exchanged his retina-searing hoodie for his armor) both waited for Takeshi to report Archer's findings.

"The front door has been destroyed, looks like w
Somebody else had the same idea."

"Dammit. There goes our numbers advantage." Rin thought for a moment. "I say we go in anyway. If there's two Servants fighting in there we can take one of them by surprise at least."

"Lets not keep them waiting." takeshis coat flashes with a dull gold light, activatig the protective runes woven into the fabric. His staff also takes the same gold glow.

Vince saw Assassin's assault, and carefully peered from his hiding place. The only way he could help Assassin now was to mess with Rider's senses, notably vision to reduce his fighting effectiveness.

Rin fished several emeralds out of her pockets and followed Takeshi towards Matou mansion.


Inside, Rider got back to his feet, slamming Assassin's spear aside with his shield and ramming his own sword forward, straight into the ninja's neck - only for Assassin to no longer be there, off to the side with his spearhead plunging towards Jason's flank. The Argonaut captain barely got out of the way in time, backing off with his shield upraised to ward off a flurry of shurikens aimed at his face.

It took a while yes, but Aaron finally got the items he asked for. Three suped up race cars appeared before the temple. Aaron got the drivers to bring the cars so that they were hidden from the outside world and Aaron could work on them. Aaron worked for the better portion of a week on the cars and Alice asked him "What are you doing with those cars?"

Aaron looks up from his work "Alice what happens when a object, filled to the brim with mana hits an object?"

"A very big explosion."

"And a great distraction."

Vince continued to assault Rider's senses, for it seemed to be working.
