Chapter 5

#5) Adventure!

A bright light flashed before vanishing as smoke rose with the silhouette of four figures. "I only needed one for the time being!"

Vanitas cursed his luck for acting up as the four figures spoke in unison.

"Are you my master?"

Vanitas sighed "Yes I am your master." The four figures introduced themselves.

"Servant Lancer: Enkidu."

"Servant Berserker: Kiyohime."

"Servant Saber: Souji Okita."

"Servant Rider: Saint Martha."

Vanitas looked at all of them before nodding. "I got the clay, the dragon tamer, Daishouri and the best snek princess. Kiyohime blushed when she heard that as she thought "He's not lying, he's not lying!"

Sasaki poked his head through the kitchen "Master did you actually interfere-" "Oh you actually succeeded."

The four of them looked at Vanitas who was thinking of the best way to explain the situation.

"So I just want a peaceful life of doing what I want. I didn't call you here for the grail as i don't have a wish I want granted and If I did I would just do it myself. So you are here as a deterrent."

They all nodded as Enkidu asked "So what do we do?"

Vanitas grinned as the blue light in his eyes flashed "You can do whatever you want as long as it's not overboard."

"Or if you want, you can follow me cause I'm doing whatever I want."

Martha piped up "What are you going to do?"

Vantias thought for a bit before heading over to the kitchen and coming back with a list.

"Let's see..."

"Well first of all I want to test my theory so I'm heading for a dead apostle ancestor. More specifically Altrouge Brunestud."

Kiyohime asked "Why are you heading somewhere so dangerous? You even implied that you didn't need us." Vanitas looked at them "You might not like my methods or what I will do."

"Well then I'll get going, you have 10 minutes to make your decision."

Vantias headed off towards his room to pack up what was needed in his briefcase. He had made an inventory space within the briefcase as he packed a few camping items before exiting his room.

His hourglass earring swung side to side as the sand finished dropping down as the hourglass swung and reversed.

Kiyohime decided to go with him. Martha decided to go as well. Okita decided to stay with Sasaki. Enkidu decided to stay and explore the city.

"Enkidu, make sure your friend doesn't spot you okay?"

He nodded as Martha and Kiyohime dematerialised. Martha watched on in awe from her spirit form as the book her master pulled out was beautiful. It had a clockwork steampunk design as the gear piece fell and the latch opened.

The red lined pages fluttered as the pitch black pages lit up from the lines and dots that filled the pages. The lines expanded as if reaching out towards the sky. The blue gleam in his eyes as the lines and dots eventually formed a spark which increased in size as it bounced off of each part before finally reaching them.

They found themselves in a forest as the sky was pitch dark only lit up by the moon and stars. The two servants materialised as Vanitas reached into his briefcase and started pulling out tents for him and the two servants.

A few other items came out including a gas cooker and a few pots and pans along with slabs of meat and sauces along with vegetables. Kiyohime offered to cook only for Vanitas to refuse "If I don't cook daily my skill will diminish and I have a rival (Emiya)." Kiyohime understood as she backed down "But you can do breakfast tomorrow."

Vantias looked happy with his handiwork as he finished eating and left the two to do whatever they wanted. He stayed up inside his tent thinking about whether his theory would work or not.

Next Morning:

"Master? MaStER" He opened his eyes to see Kiyohime with her eyes staring at him strangely and a blush on her face. "Huh?" He looked over her shoulder to see Martha trying to tug her back out of the tent.

He quickly got up before disappearing and reappearing leaving Kiyohime to fall onto his pillow. Her nose got one whiff of the smell as she rolled around trying to decoded what scent it was. After a few more minutes she had got it. It was fruits, may fruits.

Vanitas soon found Kiyohime attached to his back again. He looked at Martha "Any ideas?" Martha shook her head as Vantias got up after breakfast. "Well time to greet the vamp."

A few more minutes of walking brought them to a girl who was walking around. He walked into her view as she demanded "Show yourself!"

He opened the book as he paralysed her using the book. The book opened itself as the pages fluttered as Vanitas interfered with her existence as he corrupted her very existence using her true name.

Altrouge screamed as she looked for the nearest warm blooded creature, Vanitas. She lunged only to find her self on the ground unable to move. She wanted blood, she needed the warmth.

Soo enough it soon stopped as Vanitas reversed the process before leaving with the two servants who were terribly confused as to what had happened.

Vanitas finished off packing everything up before teleporting back to his home with the needed data.

"Finally, I have a break!"

The door to his house crashed open as a figure flew into the walls destroying multiple of them in the process.

"I retract my statement."

"WHY!"
