[Saber had been exploring the town over the past couple of days, trying her hardest to find the house Shiki had informed her Shirou lived in.
Upon finally stumbling upon Goldberg Street, Saber ran full-force down the street, checking the numbers as they flew by. Upon spotting 849, Saber skidded to a stop in the middle of the street. She merely stood, breathing heavily and staring at the house. She hadn't informed Shirou she would be showing up today, wanting to have him caught off guard for some reason, but after everything she had learned in the past two days she was suddenly unsure if she was ready.
After spending a few minutes steeling her resolve, she heaved a deep sigh and slowly walked up to the door, giving it a few light knocks.]
[Unfortunately for Saber if she truly wanted to catch Shirou off guard since no one came to answer the door just yet, it would be him seeing her as he made his way passed the side of the house and continuing onto the front yard with the grass cutter. Of course anyone with that bright blond hair would be noticeable to him, not to mention even after being here in this town for so long, there is only one woman that he knows that has that hair style and color.]
[Saber spun around quickly, her lead pipe accidentally hitting the door to the house. Saber glared hotly toward Shirou, for reasons she couldn't even begin to discern for herself.]
Shirou! [Her glare quickly softens...but only somewhat.] I...just got here. ...what are you doing?
[Suddenly being in this strange world had completely thrown Saber out-of-sorts...however being in Shirou's presence once again seems to have her slowly returning to her old self, as her face returns to her normal emotionless mask.]
[And what are you saying, she's ALWAYS hungry.]
I apologize, I did not expect you to walk around the house. I have not been sleeping very much ever since I arrived, and had no reason to show up any later than this.
You had informed me we should talk face-to-face...it would not be a viable plan to delay it any longer than necessary. [Though I have been the one avoiding you...]
Oh, that's right. About what happened later on then. It's not exactly something I'd want to talk about out in the open so... why don't you go on inside then? Make yourself comfortable and I'll be in shortly to get something ready for you, then we can talk about what happened. I don't suppose you were just having a memory problem or something.
I do not know. Everyone I have spoken to claims they experienced no memory loss upon arriving here.
I will wait here until you are finished. [Saber moves to an area where she will be out of the way, and begins practicing her sword technique with her trusty lead pipe.]
Is... that so? Then this is really more serious than I thought. Just hang on a little bit, Saber. I'll just put this all up.
[And sure enough, Shirou will be putting up the grass cutter back to the shed as quick as he can and a few minutes later, he'll be going back to where Saber is at so he can motion her to follow him inside the house.]
Saber, this way. Oh, and the food here won't be japanese style so we'll be having a western style meal for lunch. Will that be alright?
[Saber's eyes light up a bit at the mention of food. She hasn't eaten anything yet today.]
Y-yes...that will be fine. I have been struggling with preparing food in my current household, and have not been eating properly. [Her words are accentuated by a loud growl from her stomach as she follows Shirou into the house.]
[Once that the two were now inside the kitchen, Shirou would just point over to the table in the dining area for Saber to sit down on as he gets an apron to put on and then rummage inside the refrigerator to get some food out for preparations]
Alright, I'll make something big to celebrate our now official reunion. We'll have another one if and when Tohsaka somehow manages to come here as well. But until then, you are free to ask questions and I'll do my best to answer them for you.
Mm. Well soon after we discovered about Kuzuki-sensei being Caster's real Master and we failed to do what we planned to do, Caster went on to the defensive and made sure that Kuzuki never left the Ryudo Temple. While we were still planning on figuring out what to do the next day, Tohsaka decided to take us out in town and treated us with her meal that she made for lunch and it was a nice experience for the most part, but by the time we've returned home...
[He'll be falling silent since this is where the part that Saber would find most surprising and remembering the events made him more mad at what happened. Taking a deep breath to clear his mind and continue, Shirou continued to get the meal ready and finished the story.When we returned home, we've noticed that the boundary field that my father placed to warn us about intruders was completely gone. So we all knew something was up, but when we went inside... we found Caster holding Fuji-nee unconscious and as a hostage. Though she

I was about to get some chores done here just to pass time. I was half expecting you to show up but not so soon.

A scene like this...brings back memories...though it appears my own may be a bit problematic.
I suppose I would like as best a re-telling you can muster of what happened after our fight with Kuzuki, to start.
