AN: Another idea that was stuck in my head and needed to get rid off. After reading The Last Pendragon I got this. Based on "The Return of the King" by Engineer4Ever, and inspired by "The Last Pendragon" by DZ2. Do read and encourage those fellow writers.
Now a few pointers here, this will be a mild Fate/Stay Night crossover, less just say Zelretch was messing around with his Kaleidoscope again. There will be no summoned servants, or any holy grail war in this story as too many other stories have that route. Excalibur Galatine will be making an appearance. So will Arondight!
It will be like The Return of the King instead where Nimue decides to train Arturia. Enough spoilers now on with the story!

Chapter 1: The King has been chosen!
It was dark and silent in Godric's Hollow as the Dark Lord glided towards the crib holding a small young baby girl with short black hair. Stepping over the now lifeless body of Lily Potter, he raised his wand with a great sneer on his face. 'Tonight, no one would stop Lord Voldemort. Not even fate and its stupid prophecy would stop the great me.' (AN Superiority-complexity much?)
"Now to finish this, AVADA KEDRAVA!"
...
At the same time,
Down in Gringotts Wizarding Banks, at the lowest level of the low, inside a dark vault with the number 1 inserted at the top, the Sword that Chooses, the now broken Caliburn: The Golden Sword of the Victorious shined brightly before disappearing in a flash of light.
...
Back to Moldy-butt,
AVADA KEDRAVA!
A great ball of green light flew from the wand heading straight towards the sleeping girl. The smile on Voldy's face grew larger as the killing curse flew closer until it turned into a look of shock when a bright light filled the entire room. Voldemort closed his eyes and as a result, never did saw his own curse flying back towards him. As the curse destroys his body, a unearthly wail echoed throughout the night. Voldemort never did saw the golden sword that was broken in the middle of the blade, floated above the young girl who is now awake having a new lightning bolt scar on her forehead. She was giggling at the sight of the sword, and was reaching out to it as though it was a new toy. The sword gently flew towards the baby girl's hands and when the small hands grasp the handle a new light shone from both the girl and the sword. A magical pulse echoed throughout the whole world. The magical community failed to notice this while many of the magical creatures felt the enormous amount of magical energy that flowed through the land. Many fairies and dragons notice this and knew what the sign was.
...
At an unknown Lake, At the same time,
Deep inside the lake, Vivian the Lady of the Lake has a look of joy as she oversaw the event. The sword has chosen once more. Despite it being broken in the previous kings time it never did lose its power of choosing, and now after so many years it had finally chosen a new king. Looking away from the mirror, she started planning a schedule to take her away and train her in the knowledge of magecraft. She knew that the old coot Dumbledore would most likely take her away and place her somewhere so that she would be 'safe' and can be trained like a good loyal dog. No way was she having her King suffering from that. Still, she will at least watch where the coot was planning on taking her before making her move. It will do good for her to have some friends of her own age after all and having a proper childhood would be good.
...
After a few days, at Surrey, Privet Drive,
Vivian had a look of disgust at her face. She had briefly looked over the Dursleys just like that cat Professor did and instantly knew that her King can never live with these kind of mongrels(AN:Channeling Gilgamesh here). Now she watch as the retreating magus-wannabes disappear in flash of smoke after they had DUMPED the baby in front of the doorsteps of the house in the middle of WINTER. She quickly walked over towards the door and picked up her new charge still sleeping. At least there where warming charms but still. She looked over the letter and snorted before turning it to dust. She turned around and disappeared without a sound. No evidence of Arturia Potter was found that night and the Dumbledore should have really checked cause if he did then he would have known that all of the tracking charms placed on her have been placed on the squib living nearby instead. The wizarding world never knew that Arturia Potter would never been seen by any wizard or witch until 10 years later.
