Durandal.

Saber, Shirou and the two exorcists were quietly walking towards the mansion.

"I'm curious to see where Miss Artoria lives" Irina said with expectation.

Xenovia had a similar expression.

Both Saber and Shirou were looking a bit nervous.

As they approached, they finally saw it.

Xenovia and Irina didn't speak for a moment as they stood at the gates.

"Why….is there a ship bulging out of the house?" Irina asked.

"What ship?" Shirou said, feigning ignorance.

Saber and Shirou refused to acknowledge it. Irina and Xenovia just continued to follow the couple nervously as they made their way into the house.

They made their way around the 'large object' blocking several rooms.

"We're back with groceries" Shirou shouted into the house.

They got no response.

"They usually swarm you by now…" Saber said confused.

Shirou set down his groceries, and saber put her Lion away as they looked for the gang, the two exorcists followed behind.

As they got to a far corner of the house, they started to hear some rather…unpleasant language being shouted. It sounded like Sasuke.

They saw, peering into one of the rooms was Ichigo, Rukia and Orihime. They didn't dare go inside for some reason.

Shirou's group looked in as well….

Tier, Sasuke, Jaina, Naruto, and Yoruichi all were wearing headsets and sitting at computers. They were playing their game and were in a match.

Sasuke was insulting the other team, the words he said were best not to be repeated.

"They've been like this for an hour." Ichigo said.

"Sasuke's even cheating by using his sharingan to capture movements better." Ichigo said.

"Bite me strawberry" Sasuke retorted, not even bothering to turn around.

Everyone outside the room was a bit taken back, they've never seen him this aggressive before.

Moments later, the group that was playing jumped up and shouted. A large 'victory' appeared on their screen.

Sarah looked over to Sasuke, her face was a bit flushed. She quickly grabbed his arm and bolted out the door towards her bedroom.

Ichigo's group continued to look on in shock.

"Um…..can someone explain" He said after recovering.

"Yeah…that's been happening recently." Naruto replied.

"Sarah apparently gets really turned on when Sasuke shows his more aggressive side….." Naruto explained.

"And he gets VERY aggressive when gaming for some reason" Yoruichi added.

The group started to feel vibrations originating from the bedroom wing of the house.

Ichigo looked over to his 'guests' who were sporting a bit of a blush themselves.

"Um…..Shirou got groceries" Ichigo said to break the awkward silence.

"DINNER" Yoruichi yelled happily.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The group sat down at the table as Shirou finished cooking.

Sarah and Sasuke rejoined the group after a bit, the exorcists couldn't look towards the two without their faces turning bright red.

"So what was the meeting about" Jaina asked Ichigo and his school group.

"It was about our guests" Ichigo said.

She looked over towards the two exorcists who were devouring their food.

"The church sent them to recover a couple of stolen holy swords, and i offered them a place so stay since i kinda trashed the church in town...." Shirou said.

"Any famous ones?" Yoruichi asked regarding the blades.

"Kinda…." Shirou responded hesitantly.

There was an awkward atmosphere as Shirou glanced over to saber.

"The broken fragments of Excalibur had been reforged into some knock-offs. They can barely even be called holy swords" Saber said angrily.

The group knew she was referring to the Excalibur of this world.

"Um…Miss Artoria…..You acknowledge them to be the fragments of Excalibur….so how come you have the Complete Excalibur? Irina aked hesitantly.

"My Excalibur is a Noble Phantasm. Noble Phantasms are the embodiment of the ultimate mysteries of a hero that symbolizes one's existence through historical facts and anecdotes"

"As long as I exist, so shall my Excalibur" She declared.

The two girls looked confused at her proclamation.

After a few moments of silence, Shirou asked a question towards Xenovia. "Why do you wield the fragment when you have another blade?" He asked.

Xenovia's eyes widened a little bit as his question.

"I'm sorry…was that supposed to be a secret?" Shirou said awkwardly.

"Um….how did you know?" Xenovia asked.

"The calluses on your hands, they don't match up with the fragment you showed. And your posture while walking was all wrong for that blade" He explained.

"I see…" She said reluctantly.

She got up and held her hand out and brought it forth from a pocket dimension.

"Durandal" Shirou said immediately. He was surprised to see this world's counterpart. It was a gaudy blade and looked very awkward to wield. It was almost nothing like the one that sat in his reality marble.

As Shirou was inspecting the blade, he felt a weird tugging sensation from withing his unlimited blade works.

His Durandal started to vibrate, like it was calling out to him.

He extended his hand and it appeared. It required no prana to create nor an aria to trace. It willed itself into existence.

It's holy aura appeared inside the room. All eyes were on the blade that had just materialized.

"Shirou what are you doing…?" Saber asked in confusion.

"It wasn't me, the blade forced itself out" Shirou said with just as much confusion.

Shirou's Durandal and the Durandal in Xenovia's hand started to emit their auras.

The tension was increasing as the blades seemed to be having an argument. After a few minutes, the Durandal in Xenovia's hand started to have its aura recede. It seemed as though her blade had admit defeat.

Xenovia and Irina were just staring dumbfounded. They didn't know what was going on, it appeared as though Durandal had concede to that mystery blade.

"What is that blade…"Xenovia asked with confusion.

"The noble phantasm…..Durandal" Shioru answered with a bit of hesitation. He had a strange feeling…it was like Durandal wanted him to declare its name.

"But…..Thats..." Xenovia was at a lost for words, Irina also couldn't speak at this revelation.

The two girls had been through too much today, they were going to collapse from mental exhaustion.

"Let me show you two to your rooms" Jaina quickly said as the two girls looked like they were going to faint.

As the girls left the room, Saber looked over to Shirou and wanted answers. Everyone else was just as confused as well.

"Its…..real" Shirou said.

It took a moment for the words to sink in. They knew Shirou's ability, it was impossible to make them 'real' but he got pretty close. They would eventually break down due to the worlds rules.

"Shirou.....how?" Saber asked hesitantly.

"I don't know, it was like Durandal willed itself to be created. It took that other Durandal as a provocation." Shirou explained.

"I can still trace a 'fake' but this one….won't ever disappear it now 'exists'" Shirou stated.

"Shirou…did something similar happen when we met the Caliburn of this world?" Saber asked.

"For a brief moment I felt a pull on Caliburn but it was nothing like this, I think Durandal is a more arrogant blade so It refused to be out done by what it considered a lesser version of itself" Shirou hypothesized.

"This is a bit dangerous…." Ichigo finally spoke.

"If the world finds out that not only can you copy legendary weapons but you can also create 'real' ones….." Ichigo said.

"They don't know details of your abilities…we can just say you can make a temporary fake" Saber stated.

"We still don't know if it was only a one time case or if it will happened whenever you encounter a copy of one in your collection" Ichigo interjected.

"We just have to get stronger so its not an issue" Yoruichi said with a smile.

"Sorry for the trouble….." Shirou said quietly.

"Please, compared to the shit our orange haired idiot puts us through, this is nothing" Rukia said.

The corners of Shirou's lips tugged upwards at her words. He was glad he found these people.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the night went on, everyone started to head to their rooms for sleep.

Shirou and Saber were the last ones awake. Saber was hugging her large lion while snuggling up against Shirou on the couch.

Saber looked up towards her lover. "Shirou....thank you" She quietly said to the man she loved.

Shirou looked towards the petite girl in confusion.

"I've never been as happy as I am now…..i have someone I truly love and friends I enjoy spending my time with."

"I want to spend the rest of my life like this...I want to be with you and our family forever." She declared to her lover.

Shirou grabbed saber tightly.

"After we finish school….lets get married" He quietly whispered to the woman he loved.

Saber had a few tears run down her face as she pushed her lips against his.

"You can be my queen" She said with a smile after they parted.

Shirou didn't argue with his fiancé as he picked her up and carried her to their room.
