General POV
This is going to be a good day for one, Tohsaka Rin. Heiress of the Tohsaka line and magus owner of Fuyuki with the sole responsibility of keeping the city intact and memory wiping anyone non-magus related that came into contact with anything magus related. Dressed in a mini skirt and red sweater, with her lovely twin-tailed hair and eyes filled with intent, Rin is ready.
With her father's participance in the 4th Holy Grail War and subsequently, his death, Rin, determined to fulfill her father's wish, decided to participate in its fifth counterpart. Rin looked up to the clock on the wall of her magical laboratory, standing by the circle as she watched the countdown on the clock. 2 a.m, the perfect summoning time for the saber class servant, acknowledged strongest of the 7 existing classes.
Today, Rin won't fail, she will summon the strongest servant and steamroll all the way to unbounded victory! That is, if she can summon the servant of her desire, which she could, which she will!
"Silver and iron to the origin. Gem and the archduke of contracts to the cornerstone.
The ancestor is my great master Schweinorg.
The alighted wind becomes a wall. The gates in the four directions close, coming from the crown, the three-forked road that leads to the kingdom circulate.
Shut (fill).

Repeat every five times.
Simply, shatter once filled.
――――I announce.
Your self is under me, my fate(doom) is in your sword.
In accordance with the approach of the Holy Grail, if you abide by this feeling, this reason, then answer.
Here is my oath. I am the one who becomes all the good of the world of the dead, I am the one who lays out all the evil of the world of the dead.
You, seven heavens clad in three words of power, arrive from the ring of deterrence, O keeper of the balance ―――"
It's time for the summoning, Rin thought to herself as she filled in her entire bit of concentration and mana for this one instance. She has been preparing for the last 10 years, she can't fail at this first step! The circle first glowed nature green, then shifted intensely to an illuminating red! Before bursting in a short wave of blue sparks, spiraling white smoke outwards and upwards!
Cough, cough, cough, Rin wiped the smoke away with her hands as a person formed in front of her vision, still blocked by a number of smoke. That's not the main focus of Rin's attention right now as she only had one thought in her mind! 'I summoned a servant! I successfully summoned the strongest servant class saber!' Oh how wrong her assumption is.
Another thought however ran into the summoned servant's mind. 'Huh? A perfect summoning! Uncommon... It's rare for Alaya to put me down this gently and my memories, although still translucent, it's much clearer than any of my other summoning! This has never happened before... Time to make my introductions.'
"You have summoned servant archer, I ask of you, are you my master?" Archer started with a cocky drawl and a hugely planted smirk across his face. "Archer? Archer?! Not Saber?!" With that, archer raised a brow as the smoke finally subsided to reveal the servant's full form. White hair neatly swept back, a handsome slight angular face and lastly confident eyes.
His wardrobe includes a tight black body suit, sticking to reveal beautiful and proportionate abdominal muscles (bringing a blush to the Tohsaka heir's cheeks). He also wears long sleeved cloth going up to his shoulders and was connected with a strap across the chest with two tied crosses. Attached on his waist is also a lower-only form of dashing red cloth serving to help 0 combat effectiveness and 100 combat attractiveness. But aside from that, no weapon was seen on the servant itself.
"Need to say, I'm quite disappointed you thought so less of me master? Could I have drawn the shortest straw of the bunch?" Archer remaining smug, stood on his feet and crossed his arms together, his full height thwarting over his master. Rin looked at the clock as she came into a realization and frustratingly curled her hands around her head.
The clocks and any time measuring devices in the Tohsaka Mansion is running an hour early and so the display of 2 a.m. time is in all actuality, 1 a.m. time. "I should've paid more attention, argh..." Tohsaka had one hand rubbing her temples and the other dropped near a table for an exaggerated lean of tire.
"It's fine, it's fine, the archer class' great, no matter, what's done is done," Rin mumbled to herself for a few more seconds before taking a deep breath and releasing it in one whole go. "My name is Tohsaka Rin, your master for this Holy Grail War, pleased to meet you," the first step is relations improvement, the closer the servant is to the master and vice versa, the higher the chance in winning.
"Servant Archer," Archer curtly replied with his 'name'. "As a master, it will be strategic for us to start planning right off the bat and firstly, I need your true name," fully accepting her own mistake in the matter, Rin tried to give an immediate impression to show her serious attitude in this war as most heroes ted to appreciate it, not including... Archer.
"I'm sorry master, something must've gone wrong in the summoning ritual. Looks like... I've lost most of my memories, it's a bit of a daze really," now a tick could be seen present on Rin's forehead as she whined inwardly and painfully, 'why must this happen to me.' Again not blaming her servant for her own wrongdoings, Rin just decided to question him instead, "You said most, what little do your remember?"
"I remember how to speak, I remember how to battle, I remember how to go to war, just the minor important ones," Archer mocked thought as he slyly placed a finger on the side of his head. "...How strong are you?" Groaning and without anything more concrete to go on, Rin opt for something much more simple.
"Why I'm the strongest of course! After all, I'm summoned by you master!" Archer shamelessly exclaimed, licking Rin's shoes along the way. "Wh-What!" Rin blushed fiercely as she pointed a trembling finger at her servant, not knowing whether she should be embarrassed or delighted. "I can see how the mana flows through my veins! The capacity is extraordinary master! You are without a doubt one genius! A first class magus!"
"Wh-What... Ehm... *Cough*...Th-Thank you..." Rin shifted with a smile and still pink cheeks, a normal reaction coming from a girl going ten years without anyone complimenting her magical growth! "We-Well, I do hope we get along Archer. Together we shall win the Holy Grail War!" In the end, Rin was too over her head to notice the passive smile on Archer's lips.
When the time comes, they'll juts have to deal with it, yes, THEY'LL.
