16 Operation 'Annoy Saber' 1/3

"I need to go to school now and taking two servants might make the other masters attention focus on us, we are already going to talk with Caster today and try to make a deal, so there is no reason to grab Rider's attention yet.

There is also Lancer who might be roaming around and since Caster's master will be there at school, it is also possible for Caster to be there as well. Aqua is better at masking her presence, so she will be coming with me, that being said, Saber, there is no other choice but for you to..."

"Stay here" "Dress as a maid and come to school acting like a transfer student who loves cosplay!" Said Rin and Aqua simultaneously.

Rin turned her head towards Aqua, who after successfully finding her way to the cellar and stealing some bottles, went to sleep on her master's bed while drunk.

Naturally Rin tried to kick her out and send her to the couch, but Aqua threw a tantrum while saying that, as a goddess, she needed the best bed of the house for herself or she wouldn't be able to rest at all. Rin, who was beyond tired from all that had happened that day, had no choice but to cave in and go find a different place for herself to sleep.

It was quite evident that Aqua was slightly drunk, which she still didn't understand how was possible, Aqua replied her inquiries about it by saying 'Where there is a will there is a way, and there is no will greater than that of a goddess' as if that was enough of an explanation for what constituted a complete violation to the laws of the world.

Rin wasn't quite sure wether to attribute the stupid idea of having the actual king of knights dress as a maid to visit school like that to the alcohol or to Aqua herself, after a short debate on her mind, she concluded that it was most likely Aqua, whose nonsense was being fuelled even further because of the alcohol.

Saber was confused, she had no clue as to why design as a maid would be the only solution, in fact she didn't understand why Aqua even considered it a solution. She also didn't know what 'cosplay' was but following Aqua's usual train of thought and watching her master's reaction, she came to the conclusion that it couldn't be something good.

In the end, Saber dressed up in one of Rin's spare uniforms. Aqua sealed her magic so that she wouldn't be perceived, but it was a custom made weak seal, meant to be broken if a bit of pressure through mana was applied. In other words Saber could break the seal without much trouble by releasing enough of her pressure.

As they made their way to school, Rin couldn't help but think about her sister and Shinji, she knew that if she saw him she might loose her cool and kill him, which would mess everything up.

She managed to not think about him and avoid him for the entire day yesterday with Aqua's help, but she wasn't sure if she was going to run out of luck today. Aqua had already told her that they would deal with Shinji appropriately and make him pay, but that would be when they dealt with all the Matou's.

If they killed Shinji now, Zouken would no doubt be alarmed, he might even involve some of his friends on the clocktower if he is feeling paranoid enough so better to not do anything yet.

Aqua, who had already sobered up, noticed her master's distress and started petting her head. They would soon arrive to school and she wouldn't be able to establish physical contact with her master for a while, so she would rather make her master feel a bit better now and leave Rin's protection to Saber.

Saber noticed Aqua's gaze on her and nodded, indicating that she would take care of their master like they had planned. Aqua on the other hand would keep guard around school in case Lancer came.

As they arrived to the school grounds, Aqua had already disappeared.

Many students looked at Rin in adoration as usual, while many others wondered who the blonde beauty next to her was.

Rin and Saber made their way towards the principal's office, once there, Rin simply casted a small hypnosis on the man to make him believe that Saber being a temporary transfer student was completely fine.

"Aree, Tohsaka-san, good morning!" said Fujimura while jumping down the stairs and doing weird postures.

"Good morning, Fujimura-sensei." replied Rin with a small smile.

"And who might this be?" she said, Ponting in Saber's direction.

"She is a transfer student, I am coming back from the principal's office and he asked me to show her the way to class since she will be in the same one as me."

"I see! A pleasure to meet you, I am Fujimura-sensei! What is your name?"

"Christina." said Artoria, choosing to use the name Aqua decided for her.

"Ohh and where are you from Christina-san?"

"From Germany." Artoria said. She was absolutely sure Aqua chose this because she knew that she didn't like Germany.

"You have very good Japanese for a foreigner Christina-san!" continued Fujimura-sensei, acting like an excited kid.

"Thanks." replied dryly Artoria.

"Well Fujimura-sensei, I am going to continue taking her to class now." said Rin before Fujimura-sensei could continue her barrage of questions.

"Hmm, good idea Tohsaka-san, well good luck on your first day Christina-san!" said Fujimura-sensei before continuing to run off making weird poses.

"Sigh, well lets continue Saber, I just hope we don't get interrupted by every single person we meet." said Rin, definitely NOT raising a flag.

As they continued walking towards the classroom, they came across the president of the student council.

"T-Tohsaka..."

"Ara, if it isn't the president of the student council. You are very diligent, coming here so early. Are you patrolling the campus? Or just making maintenance of the club rooms?"

"Hmph, making some patrolling rounds, I was hoping to do some maintenance as well but Shiro-san didn't come today. What about you, it is strange seeing you here so early, especially since you are not a part of any club. And who is she? I don't think I have seen her around before." he asked while pointing in Artoria's direction.

"She is a transfer student, I am showing her the way to class." answered Rin.

"Pleasure to meet you, I am Christina." said Artoria while looking at the president of the student council.

"Likewise, I am Issei Ryuudou, the president of the student council. Let me know if you need anything." said Issei.

Artoria simply nodded at that and went back to walking in the classroom's direction with Rin.
