It's 2004 and some things don't change. BB-kouhai still requires disciplining. Don't bully yourself! (Unless you're Archer, in which case it's okay)

[Continued]



You awoke in… pain. That wasn't unusual, the fact that you were slowly getting used to that was rather depressing now that you thought about it. You awoke confused, that wasn't unusual either. Your eyes opened slowly, taking in… what were you laying on? A blue… square was your bed, like glass but… not, it shimmered and glowed where you touched it. Below its non-opaque surface was… a funnel? A black funnel of shimmering lights that seemingly went on forever. You stare at it, watching the lights, then you hear a groan.

Turning your head to the right, you see Sakura pushing herself up from the ground as well. She gets about a foot up, then stares through the non-opaque floor the same way you did. Her mouth falls open, and she tilts her head, watching the lights.

Then you heard the scream.

Jerking your head the other way you see Taiga launching herself up from the floor like a startled cat. "What the- where the?!"

"The What, is 'my world', the 'Where', well..." A new voice speaks up. The three of you turn as one to look at…

"Sakura?" you ask, confused.

There were two Sakura's now, the one you had just seen informing you of lunch, and a second one that… you weren't quite sure what to make of it. For starters her hair was now down all the way to her ankles, and she was wearing a black… cloak… thing with a high collar. It was open at the front, to reveal a white shirt underneath that emphasized…



You weren't aware Sakura was that busty.

"If you have the wherewithal to ask that, then I do believe the fall didn't scrambled your pitiful brains like I thought it would." Sakura(?) says with a vicious grin.

You push yourself up onto your feet. "Where are we?"

Sakura(?) looks at you, the smile fading. Her eyes flit up and down your form. "An alt of that blacksmith? How droll. Not even a summer version."

What?

"Now be quiet." She says with a smile and a wink.

You open your mouth to speak, but your mouth doesn't move. It doesn't even twitch, your dart to your face, only to meet smooth skin beneath your nose. Your mouth is gone!?

"Shirou!?" Sakura shrieks.

Then the second Sakura is gone, face to face with the one you knew. Her hands dart out, white-gloved fingers grabbing Sakura by the face and tilting her head this way and that like a doll. "So this is the original model? How…"

"DISAPPOINTING!" her voice booms from all around you.

Your hands shoot to your ears as a gargantuan version of her looks over you all. The one that was here just a moment ago was gone, instead she had been replaced by one looming over the endless expanse of blue squares, hundreds upon hundreds of feet high, looking down at all of you with a grin that stretched from ear to ear, splitting her face completely in half as skin was broken open to show more and more teeth.

"I could not be born from such a boring person!"

Then Sakura was gone, the floor opening up beneath her. She fell with a scream then turned into motes of lights.

"And you, you're nothing more than an NPC!" Sakura(?) yells, pointing a finger at Taiga.

Taiga opens her mouth to respond, only to scream as the floor disappears beneath her as well. You start to move towards her, but you were far too late, your shout of alarm coming out as nothing behind your sealed mouth.

Then, the finger points at you.

"And you… you are nothing, you weren't even there. Not even worth recreating in the school. Here I thought sneaking along with Fujimaru would be fun, but you are all so…" She's in front of you, her forehead pressing against your own as her eyes bore into you. "Boring."

Then… she's gone, and you are alone. There's no Sakura… either of them, there is no Taiga, there's just an endless expanse of blue squares. Your hand moves to your mouth again, pulling at the flesh there. But… there's nothing, not even the feeling of teeth beneath the skin. Where… what… where did they go, who was thi-

"Breath…" a quiet voice whispers.

You freeze, a sweet scent fills the air, and you feel hands place themselves on your shoulder… but nothing is actually there.

"You know my voice," the whisper continues.

It's… Taiga's servant. But you couldn't see her.

"She failed to notice you were the only being here with a shadow." Assassin continues, "now… breath. I can still feel the connection to my master, turn around."

You do so and see… three doors. They float above the ground, each an open frame with a brilliant blue light within them, allowing no view through them. Atop each was a small sign. One showed a picture of Taiga and… a cow. Sakura and a penguin, and one that simply read. 'Not a Trap'.

"It would seem those are our only options," Assassin whispers. "At least for the moment."

You nod your head, then step forward.

Hello and welcome to BB's amazing voting corner, here we have three wonderful options for you, aren't I generous?

First, and definitely the least we have [] [Taiga and the Cow] truly a battle for the ages, we have a character that nobody cares about, and a clone of me with self esteem issues.

Second, and definitely the worst. We have [] [Sakura and the Penguin] which, who would even pick that? Nobody cares about Sakura outside of Heaven's Feel. It's all about Rin and Saber, oh, what's that? They aren't even options in this timeline? Why are you even here then?

Third, and definitely the safest. We have [] [Not a Trap] which, honestly, speaks for itself doesn't it? Step on through, you can trust BB, can't you?

Oh my yes Shirou, time to pay more attention to her!

"She failed to notice you were the only being here with a shadow." Assassin continues, "now… breath. I can still feel the connection to my master, turn around."

And hey, Mata Hari is around! Huzzah!

I think Sakura is in the most danger, and we need to stabilize her some more regardless, so let's go for her, then we can sweep around to Taiga. I uhh, don't think immediately confronting BB leads anywhere good.
 
....

what in the servant classes just happened?

I don't trust any part of BB with Sakura. Taiga might be able to survive one her own howeveruch I hate leaving her to fend for herself.

Taigia's still in a cast, right? And she's down her Servant, and is otherwise very mortal. Worst comes to worst Sakura has her (starkly limited) Magecraft, and the Angry Mango, which might save Sakura's body but kill the Sakura we know and love...

Fuck, this is a difficult decision.

I'm just worried about how much harder Sakura will get it... then again she should be able to call for Archer....

[X] [Taiga and the Cow]

Changing my vote.
 
[X] [Taiga and the Cow]

Sorry Sakura. But nothing about this is safe and Taiga is probably the least safe.

Also ignoring canon love interests in favor of the forbidden routes has been a theme. Why break it now?
