"So wait, you mean to tell me YOU'RE Rin's DAUGHTER?" Asked Chloe Von Einzbern.
"Quite. and as you'll find out, i'm not the only one." I nodded.
"Fujiko!" Ritsuka came up to us.
"Senpai!" Mash called out, as he ran up to us.
"I'm glad you all made it out of there well." He said, hugging Mash. Breaking away from it he noticed the tanned devilish Faker that just so happened to come back with us. "And you are..."
"Chloe Von Einzbern! And who are you, Handsome?" The devil spoke, getting a glare from both me and Mash.
"m- me? I'm Ritsuka Emiya. Fir-First master of Chaldea." he said.
"E- Emiya?! as in-" Chloe begins to say but then Lord El-Melloi II cut in.
"Yes, as in Shirou Emiya. And yes, he's Fujiko's brother." Lord El-Melloi II said, walking in.
"Huh? wait, arent you Rin's tutor?" Chloe asked, looking at Lord El-Melloi II.
"For a time, yes. Now, Fujiko. Ritsuka. are you two aware of Chloe's full story?" Lord El-melloi II asked.
"Huh? what do you mean?" Ritsuka asked.
"She is a second personality from the Illya you met in the singularity, given form thanks to her becoming a demi servant with a version of EMIYA." Lord El-melloi II asserted.
I was going to ask him how he knew but Chloe replied before I could. "...Yes, i am. You could call me the Original Illya, out of the two of us."
"Wait, is it like Shiki and her Saber self?" Ritsuka asked.
"Indeed." Lord El-melloi II nodded. "Good thinking. However this brings an implication for our Illya. Fujiko, When you saw Illya in the True Unlimited Blade Works, did she flicker into Chloe too or just into the one you saw in the Singularity?"
"No, why?" I ask.
"If our Illyasveil didnt merge with Chloe, that can only mean one thing." Lord El-melloi II noted.
Ritsuka summoned a craft essence card with Aunty Illya on it. Verdent Song of destruction, I think it's called."Aunty Illya merged with a different servant and has yet to be summoned." Ritsuka finished. He tossed the card up, and Chloe caught it.
"This- This is Illya! How did you-?" Chloe tries to ask.
"Projection magic. Surely you must know at least a little of it, if you're a Demi-servant of father's. Chloe, was it? Lets go Summon us a magical girl." Ritsuka noted, leaving to the Summoning room, as Mash and Chloe followed. he seemed abit to excited about that last part.
"Y'know Lord El-Melloi II, you've taken Leo's place pretty well, I'd say." I note.
"I'm sure you're aware that a mage could never compare to Da Vinci, but i'll accept the compliment." He replied.
And then the summon room video feed came on. "Alright, Robin. what do we have for Quartz curently?"
"probably arround 120, Master." the green archer replied. "Is now the time you've been saving up for?"
"You could say that. Just dump them in the circle." Ritsuka nodded.
"Easy enough!" Robin dumped the bag he 'borrowed' Santa Alter, and dumped all the Saint quartz in the middle.
"Alright, now stand back Archers." Ritsuka cracked his neck and readied his command seal infront of him. "FATE System: Activate! Saint Graph: Execute!" his command seals glowed and gold orbs swirled arround the room. and in a gold flash, A young girl in a school outfit appeared. And so she was summoned.
Archer stood up, quickly.
"Something the matter, Faker? Adult Gilgamesh commented, but Archer ignored it and ran out of the room.
"Illyasveil!"Irisveil gasped, standing up.
"it... can't be..." Saber noted.
"We gotta go." Irisveil rushed out of the room.
"Wait!" Saber tried, running after her.
"...Hmph." Kiritsugu grunted, before dissapearing.
"What was that about?" Shiki asked.
"Keh, Fatherly love, no doubt." Cursed Hassan chuckled.
"Fatherly... Love?" Serenity questioned.
Hercules got up, his face determined. He rushed through the hallways to the summoning room, quickly catching up with Irisveil.
"Berserker, a lift please!" Irisviel asked, and berserker nodded picking her up and putting her on his shoulder.
"Wait, Irisveil!" Saber exclaimed, as the two ran off, Archer only just catching up to Saber. Saber turned to see me and Lord El-Melloi II. "Master Fujiko! could it really be her?"
"Well, It might be." I replied walking up to them.
"Then we don't have time to wait. Let's go." Archer nodded, leading the charge.
"Erm, I'm called Illya. I'm a 5th elementary school grader. For now... I'm trying out being a magical girl, yes. Uhm, I'm not sure if someone like me will be useful…But I'll do my very-" illya was cut of by the hulking berserker and the motherly Caster bursting into the room, blasting Ritsuka, Chloe and Robin aside.
"Ritsuka!" Robin cried out as Ritsuka hit the other wall.
"I'm... fine!" Ritsuka exclaimed, raising his thumb.
"Oh, Illya! Come here!"Irisveil jumped off of berserker and hugged Illya.
"m-Mama?!" Illya gasped as the inherited memories flowed in. as they flowed into Illya they also flowed into Chloe and as they did, chloe joined in the hug, getting a wierd look from Iri in the process.
"Er... Who are you?" she asked, as Lord El-Melloi II, Saber, Archer and I walked in.
"She is Chloe, a split personality from an Illya from alternate universe." Lord El-melloi II explained.
"An alternate Universe?" Saber asked.
"Yes, one where Illya was planned to be used for the Fourth Holy Grail War you and Kiritsugu had been discussing completely abandoning the ritual and the Einzbern family. and you decided to seal her magical abilities and her memories up until she was 8 months old." Lord El-Melloi II explained. "But when they did, Chloe was born inside illya's mind; a second personality, with all of the memories and abilities that were locked up. Chloe later became a Demi-servant of EMIYA and was given physical form."
"And that's the story?" said Kiritsugu, walking out of the shadows scaring everyone.
"E- Essentially, yes." Chloe answered. "Wait, aren't you-" Kiritsugu took off his hood.
"Two Illya's... This will be a handful." He commented.
"Papa!" Chloe and Illya both exclaimed, running up to hug Kiritsugu.
"So Kiritsugu... Do you think you deserve me yet?" Iri asked, standing up.
"... A better question is can you really forgive me for what i did?" Kiritsugu asked.
"... As long as you never do it again." Iri replied.
"... Done." Kiritsugu... Smiled? he smiled. Unbelievable. "Besides, something tells me dealing with these two will be too much for one person." Iri chuckled at that.
"That's all well and good, but Caster. how the hell did you know all of that? You didn't go to the Singularity." Robin asked Lord El-Melloi II.
"Just part of my job of taking Leonardo's place. I was able to contact the Lord El-melloi from this magical girl universe by focusing SHEBA on the singularity." Lord El-Melloi II explained. "He explained everything from there."
"Right..." Robin nodded slowly, before putting up his hood and leaving.
"Lord El-Melloi II. About Illya." Archer commented.
"Fire away, Shirou." He replied.
"Do you think Illya got our Illya's memories?" Archer asked.
"Yes, she likely did get the memories of this world's Illya. but something tells me it split between the two." Lord El-Melloi II noted.
"Split? How do you mean?" Archer tilted his head.
"Remember what i said about Chloe's conception?" Lord El-Melloi II began. "Chloe is the Illya before the Sealing; the one who was meant for a holy grail war, and the actual Illya is the one after the sealing; the one who was meant to have a real life. What i'm thinking is that this world's Illya was split between the two. Illya's memories before and during the Holy Grail War went to Chloe and the memories after the war went to this Illya."
"That's... a bit confusing." Archer commented.
"Even for a counter guardian, who have fought in countless wars, at least three different holy grail wars plus a Moon Simulation in the 2030's, if Robin and Nero is to be believed?" Lord El-Melloi II smirked.
"Laying it a bit thick aren't you?" Archer scoffed. "At least Da Vinci wasn't THIS nosy..."
