This is a Friend Insert starring Passive_Soul from Space Battles in the Mobile Gach Game Fate/Grand Order. While does know of the fate franchise as he has seen UBW and a bit of Apocrypha, he knows nothing about the game's plot, nothing at all and he has forgotten finer details concerning the animes. So un like a normal one you can talk spoilers on as he does not have an account here.

Chapter 1:

Andrew Murphy was looking through the mail when he noticed a letter addressed to him by the Chaldea Security Organization.

Obviously curious, having never heard of such a thing, he opened the letter. He folded out the paper and began reading the first line.

"Congratulation Mr. Murphy for entering our contest during your latest blood donation and we are happy to announce that you have won the grand prize."

Andrew stared at the line, confused. He didn't remember entering any contest the last time he gave blood- or for that matter, the last time he donated his blood. Andrew continued reading curious as to what it was all about.

"And such you have won a week-long stay at the Chaldea Security Organization Observatory SHEBA. Our men will pick you up on July 7, there is no refusal of this request."

Andrew, now confused and honestly, a bit threatened by the letter looked over at the calendar to check today's date- July 7th. Desperately hoping it was a prank, he continued reading the letter. The only thing that was left on it was a symbol that looked like a moon surrounded crown of leaves, along with the name of the so-called organization written at the bottom of the page.

Andrew flipped over the paper, hoping there might be something there, only to find it blank.

Before he could do anything, he heard the sound of the doorbell ring. Andrew, now scared for his life, quickly grabbed his knife from his room, made sure he had his phone to call 911 once he thought he was safe and tried to sneak out the back door.

But when he did and opened the door he came face to face with a man dressed in a black uniform.

"Thought you would try this kid." The man said, and before Andrew had time to react he heard the words Sleep being spoken and his entire world went dark.

Andrew felt the wakefulness of consciousness return to him as his eyes opened up to bright lamplight hitting them and instinctively closed them once again.

Andrew easily remembered what had happened and for just a moment thought that it had just been a bad dream. But when he tried to move his arms he found them not moving very much, and he heard the sound of two metal objects hitting each other.

Andrew, bewildered and afraid, looked around to try and figure out where he was. He figured he was handcuffed based on the position of his arms and how hard it was to move them. Andrew looked around where he was, and it looked to be a very spartan bedroom, that was painted white along with a few metal colored panels along the walls. And to the side, he could see a white desk at the corner where a door was. He only figured out it was a bedroom because he was lying on the bed. He tried to get up, only to find that he was seemingly cuffed to the legs of the bed. His head laying where his feet were supposed to be.

Andrew had never been in a situation like this before, and he was panicking. He had been kidnapped, knocked out, and was now chained to a bed in a sterile looking room with no idea where he was or how long he had been out. He felt like he wanted to scream.

But before he could scream or call for help the door in the middle of the wall he was looking at opened up, and a man stepped inside, not the one that had knocked him out.

Andrew looked up at the man in green. "Please, let me go." was all he could say, his frightened mind, robbing him of any thoughts more complex.

But all he got from the green top hat wearing man was a small laugh, more like a chuckle before he began to speak properly. "Sorry about the rough treatment kid, I hope our men weren't too scary, but we had to get you to Chaldea as fast as possible, the Director's order. But now that you are awake. You can get the explanation you deserve, also sorry about the cuffs we had to make sure you didn't run around the facility in a panic." The green man spoke with a voice filled with mirth to it as if he found the current situation like a big joke. One that only he understood.

Andrew looked up at the man, both more confused and more worried, though admittedly less panicked. "Wait, what? Who's the director? And why do they want me?" He looked at his wrists. "And can I get these off please?"

"Sure thing kid." The man spoke as he took the chair from the desk and over to where Andrew was laying. As he stopped, he took a key out of one of his pockets and unlocked the cuffs that were around his wrists.

Andrew sat up as the man sat down on the chair. He rubbed his wrists a little bit to get the blood flow back up to his hands and to not make them feel numb. "Thanks," he muttered.

"Don't thank me, kid, not yet anyway. Now, what do you wish to know first?" The man in green asked Andrew.

"What the hell is going on?" Andrew said, cutting to the chase. "And why do you want me, of all people?"

"Ah, an excellent first choice my boy. You see in this world there exists people with the capability to use magic- or Magecraft as it were, and you're one of the highest potentials of first generations we have detected in the modern age, putting even some of the older families to shame."

Andrew looked at the man before him incredulously. "So basically you're saying you kidnapped me because I'm a wizard." Now, he was even more worried. Magic? If the man was telling the truth that meant he might be able to use magic eventually, which was awesome, but at the same time the man and his organization could very well be crazy.

"Kidnapping is such a strong word to use Andrew, more like temporarily borrowing you. But I can see it in your eyes, 'magic how could something like that exists these people must be crazy.' So take a look at this. אֵשׁ" The man said and a second later a small ball of fire appeared in the man's hand before going out. "As you can see the Supernatural is very much real Andrew my dear boy."

Andrew stared at the spot where the flame had been above the man's hand. It was too round to have been a hidden flamethrower or something to fool him. Somehow, the man before him had actually used magic. "Holy shit," he said, dumbfounded. Magic. Magic was real. And according to the man before him, he had a high natural talent for it. He was mind boggled at the possibilities. "So, wait, what am I actually here for? Is this some kind of school or something?"

"Now that question is the crux of the situation, isn't it. First, there is a school in London along with Norway and Egypt for specific studies, mostly magecraft is taught internally in a family. And when first generation Magi like you are found is sent to one for basic learning of how to make mysteries. But as for why you're specifically here, Chaldea the Organization and whose base of operation your currently in are looking for Magi with Magic Circuits who are able to take up the role of a Master." The green man finished his current exposition dump.

"Wait, what? What are Magic Circuits? And Master of what?" Andrew asked, confused.

"Okay, basic information for beginner Magi. Magic Circuits are what allows Magi to channel Magical Energy, Prana to use Magecraft. Each Magi are born with a set number of circuits of various quality being able to only channel so much energy at a time. Yours are quite impressive for a First Generation Magus having 30 Magic Circuits of A-Rank quality. Now for the second question is a little bit more complex. Oh, it seems I've forgotten to introduce myself. My name is Lev Lainur, one of the head researchers here at Chaldea. Now for Chaldea itself, it is a security organization that is meant to ensure the survival of mankind, by having people like you, Andrew, to act as Masters to summon Heroic Spirits in the form Servants to ensure it." The now named Lev explained to him.

Andrew thought about Lev Lainur's words as he spoke. Apparently, he had good mana -or, Prana, he figured- capacity, which was why he had been kidnapped. "You didn't actually explain what being a Master actually means, though. What do you mean by 'Heroic Spirit'?"

Lev blinked for a few moments before he answered. "I'm sure I did, as I said Master's like you are to summon Heroic Spirits in the form of a Servant to command and defend humanity and the world from extinction. But what as for what a Heroic Spirit is they are Legends of the Past summoned from the Throne of Heroes. Think of it as an afterlife for the heroes of the past instead of being reincarnated like us ordinary humans; their Souls are Ascended to near Divinity as a reward for their deeds. A Servant is a small part, a copy of the hero if you will, meant to assist Masters like you when they answer the call to battle. Do you understand what I'm saying, its okay if you don't it is rather high-level stuff?" Lev finished speaking.

"So… you're saying that you kidnapped me so that I could summon some kind of demigod in order to protect humanity from extinction?" Andrew asked, trying to understand the situation.

"In a nutshell as you kids say nowadays, yes. But still, kidnapping is a rather strong word to use as you will be able to go home after you and your fellow Master have helped us resolve our current situation. We would have recruited you the normal way after discovering you through that blood donation you did last month. But you see my dear SHEBA lense have seen that humanity is going to by the next new year." Lev explained to him.

Andrew thought about it for a moment before coming to a conclusion. "You know if you guys would have just asked I would have said yes." He said, still not quite over being taken from his home like that. "But, I guess since humanity is at risk I don't really have a choice if I want to keep living but to help, right?"

"That's the spirit, Andrew! Now come with me, and I'll get you situated with the others, along with getting you some appropriate clothes, you have been sleeping in those garbs for over a day." Lev said as he stood and held out a hand to him.

Andrew gratefully took the hand and got up, and was pleasantly surprised to find that his legs were more or less okay to use despite having been sleeping for more than 24 hours.

"Now follow me Andrew I'll show you the way to the showers." Lev began moving towards the door, and Andrew quickly followed behind, leaving the room and stepping out into a long hallway that was the same color as his room, but the obvious difference was that the left wall was entirely made out of glass which gave view to snowy mountaintops.

A blizzard was currently raging outside. Andrew looked out the window in awe. He had never been as high up as they appeared to be at the moment before. A thought occurred to him, and he vocalized it to the so far friendly Lev. "So, where is this place anyway?" He asked as they walked.

"Ah, that is a good question Andrew, but I'm afraid to even I don't know which country we're currently in. It's kind of an ongoing bet between us who work here of who can guess where we are. The only clue I can give you is that we're currently 8000 feet above sea level." Lev answered as they continued to walk down the empty corridor, currently absent of people.

Andrew had absolutely no idea where that meant they could be. As far as he knew, that could put them on any big enough mountain, so he simply filed away that information for later and continued following Lev with just a soft "Woah."

They walked for another minute before they came to a stop in front of another door with the stand blue logo on it. "The changing rooms and showers are here. Your locker is number 39. The code currently is 1234, but you can change it to what you want afterward. I'll be waiting for you. Afterwards, we'll be going to medical to get you a check up and open up your Magic Circuits for use." Lev said.

Andrew decided to go with the flow, responding with a just a nod before going into the room. It looked like a standard high school gym locker room with mercifully separated showers unlike what he was used to. One of them was occupied, but he just ignored them and used the shower furthest away from them.

Andrew went over to his locker and opened it to see if there were shampoo, body soap, and a towel. And to his luck there were along with a folded up uniform; he could see a part of it was white.

He quickly changed and went into one of the shower cabins and got washed, while he did so he heard the shower currently being used stopping.

Andrew paid it no mind and stopped when he was clean of sweat, and dirt.

Andrew left the shower cabin, towel around the waist and went back to his assigned locker.

And of course right next to his was the one he heard use the other shower. He was a boy around his age, with spiky black hair, and blue eyes. Currently wearing what was probably the official uniforms for Masters to walk around in.

"Hello?" The boy greeted in heavily accented English. "Are you a Master too?" He asked.

Andrew, slightly taken aback at talking to a stranger fresh out of the shower, fumbled over his words before replying with something coherent. "Y-yeah, I'm a Master I guess." He said, not really knowing what else to say.

"New, too are you? I'm in the same boat as you got here two days ago. My name is Fujimaru Ritsuka, or rather Ritsuka Fujimaru here I suppose."

"My name is Andrew Murphy, and I guess I got here yesterday." He said, figuring it polite to tell the other Master his name.

"Nice be acquainted with you Murphy-san, I shall be honored working with you. I wish to speak to you later, as I have other things to do." The overly polite boy finished speaking with a slight bow and left for the door to the hallway.

Andrew let out a sigh of relief as soon as Ritsuka left the room. This was not the best way of meeting someone new. He then proceeded to put on the uniform, which fit rather nicely, before going through the door himself to rejoin Lev.

"Good to see you're done Andrew, I guess you met Ritsuka in there didn't you." The green wearing magic user said.

"Y-yeah, we met," Andrew said, trying to push the meeting out of his mind.

"Good, he's one you're going to be working with for the foreseeable future. Now let's go meet the Doctor shall we?" Lev asked.

Andrew nodded and followed him down the hall. As he did, he remembered something. "Oh yeah, do you know what happened to my knife?" He asked, not remembering what had happened to it when he got knocked out.

"Ah, yes that and some of your casual clothes and other items have been collected by our agents and placed in your room- the closet is built into the wall. And before you ask, your family is okay they have just been hypnotized to think you left for a two-week cruise trip, you've won. So no need to worry about them, we even fabricated some evidence to show them your trip when you go back home." Lev said as they came to a stop in front of another door one that was identical to the one to his room. "And we are here." Lev walked up to the door and began knocking on it. "Hey, Romani wake up you lazy bum, your patient is here for his check-up!" Lev yelled as he hammered on the door. And a second later a voice responded.

"I'm awake, awake, Lev. No need to yell I wasn't even asleep I was talking with Vinci." The door opened up, and a man stood in the doorway.

Andrew gave the supposed doctor a look over, he was a man wearing a white and green colored lab coat. He had light, fluffy orange hair tied into a ponytail.

"Andrew, this is Romani Archaman, he's Chaldea's head doctor and the one that will take care of your health, as he is the only one that doesn't have a Master under his care yet," Lev said, with none of the mirth his tone held before. It seemed that he and Romani didn't get along very well.

"You don't have to sound so mean Professor Lev, now come inside Andrew, so I can give you a look over, and have Vinci open up your Circuits for use," Romani spoke with a soft voice but seemed to have whining set at a low setting to it.

Andrew, slightly confused, did as he was told but spoke as he did. "It's nice to meet you Doctor, but ah, what do you mean about 'opening' my circuits? And, if you don't mind me asking, who is Vinci?"

Romani was about to speak, but Lev cut him off before he could. "You see a Magi's Magic Circuits first needs to be opened or rather activated before they can be used to channel Prana through them. One can do it oneself, or have another do it. Vinci is going to do it as that way is going to be the fastest way to do it, to prevent you damaging yourself. I will say this Andrew Magecraft is dangerous if one is careless, and you can die doing it if you're not careful. As the saying goes to be a Magus is to walk with death. As for who Vinci is? Well, she is the first successful Servant summoned by Chaldea." Lev explained. "Now could we do this quickly the Director is starting her speech in two hours, and there is one thing we need to do before that."

Andrew absorbed the information, before moving over to the doctor with the oddly colored hair, and did as he was told.

Andrew followed the doctor into his room/lab/clinic, that was still the same color as his room and the hallway. But inside the sitting on one of the chairs was the woman he guessed to be Vinci.

"Andrew, meet Vinci," Romani said gesturing with his hand at the beautiful woman.

"Hello to you Andrew, I'm the Caster Class Servant Leonardo Da Vinci, but you can call me just Da Vinci or Vinci."

Andrew's brain short-circuited. "What." Was all he could say in response to the woman before him who introduced herself as Leonardo da Vinci, one of the greatest inventors of all time, who he was pretty sure was not an (admittedly rather gorgeous) woman.

"Oh, I can see the face your making and the thoughts your having. "Leonardo Da Vinci, a woman? Wasn't he supposed to be a man?" Am I correct in guessing that?" She said a playful smile on her lips.

Andrew just nodded dumbly, still trying to get his brain to process this information properly.

"And that is true, I was a man when I was alive, but when I was summoned as a Servant, I chose to appear as what I think is perfect beauty, my Mona Lisa." Da Vinci answered.

The actual check-up seemed pretty routine, as Romani took a small blood sample, checked for any diseases or illnesses he might have gained over the last month, etc. After being confirmed healthy and in working order, Andrew sat directly in front of Da Vinci trying to avert his eyes from her rather impressive bust, her hands firmly holding his.

"Now the next part is going the be a little bit, painful as opening Circuits for the first time can be a shock to the system. Like nerves, you never knew existed bursting with energy. I can say from it experience doesn't feel nice. But afterward, when you use them normally it's going to feel like having your hands on a radiator. Nice inventions you know, wish I had come up with them, same with the toaster- so much easily baked bread. Anyway, I'm going off topic. Now brace yourself." Da Vinci took out one of her hands from his and pressed it against his chest. "Percorsi aperti di energia!" Came what Andrew guessed was a magic chant like what Lev had spoken when he had summoned his fireball.

Andrew's curiosity only lasted for a second as pain struck his body like a lightning bolt; he saw green lines spread across his body, but a few seconds later the pain of seemingly putting a fork in a socket stopped, and the lines disappeared.

Andrew couldn't help but yell when it started, and he was very grateful when the pain stopped. "Why is it...that whenever someone says...something will only hurt a bit...it hurts like a bitch…" he said, out of breath from not having been doing much breathing during the procedure.

"Because of the Placebo Effect, because I said it would hurt less, I braced your body and mind for only small amounts of pain, and so were a bit more relaxed. Then if I had said it would hurt more, you would brace for a lot of pain and cause your body to lock and stress. And making the pain worse and causing some damage to your muscles if you had spasmed." Da Vinci tried to explain to Andrew like he were a child. "Now a quick healing spell to soothe your aches." Da Vinci said another chant and Andrew felt like his body had just gone through a soothing massage and not a supernatural electrocution. "Now try and activate your Magic Circuits yourself. You do so by focusing on an image in your mind of an action happening, and your Circuits being filled with Prana."

Andrew nodded and tried to do so. He pictured himself running. Not for any particular reason, just running for fun. Andrew saw the image of the foot hitting the asphalt, and he felt it like something had awoken within him, and he saw the image of thirty lines lighting up filled with energy to be used. He closed the Circuits quickly after, a sense of satisfaction filling his body. He might just be able to help these people save the world!
