He wakes from his dream only to see blood That was every corner of the woods. Butchered and dismembered bodies lay in every part of the area in their proximity. Saber lost complete control over his body and mind and had not realized what he had done.

He fell to his knees. Tears began to stream down his face. He began to look at the body that lay before him and could not believe what had happened.

His sister had sacrificed herself to save Saber from one of the Half human, a half human members who was about to stab Saber with his sword.

“Why… God, why, WHY, WHY, WHY, GOD DAMMIT, W” Y!?” Saber yelled, as he began to cradle he“.

“WHY COULDN'T IT BE ME!? YOU DON'T DESERVE THIS!… I… I didn't have the strength… THE POWER TO KEEP YOU S” FE!” Saber cried, as he looked his sister empty eyes.

He looked at the night sky which held a full moon That was all he can see now with his own 2 eyes. Red, blood, darkness… he couldn't take it anymore. The lives that were lost and the people that cried as they hid from the demons and members of the Half human, Half human at the city. All of this was starting to get to him.

“I… I have had it…” Saber thought to himself as his Magic that turned to darkness began to appear.

The girl with bandages covering her body look from a far

“Oh! He was gotten pretty strong” she said giggling a little.

As this began, more members of Half human, Half human were heard arriving to his location and surrounded the boy and his dead sibling.

The girl covered in bandages smile at what Saber might do “Oh I can't wait for you my beloved seven cards” “Did this weakling really do all this?” one of the Half human, Half human said as he drew his weapon.

“Bullshit. It must have been several demons” said another, as he cautiously surrounded the devastated boy.

“It seems as though his swanky sister was already taken care of. I wish I was the ones to kill that bitch though” another said, making Saber's Magic getting more intense.

“Shut up…” Saber silently said, as the statement made him upset.

“What was that? You waste of a shit!” said the closest man who wielded a Greatsword.

“Waste of a shit?” Saber said, as his black Magic began to give form to a black armor set with red markings both in the front and the back. One that would make every warrior intimidated. The black Magic also gave Saber a black mask, one that would closely resemble that of the Half human Witch wore a Japanese style demon mask. A sword Manifested in his hands turned black with its red black markings still in place. The sword increased slightly in width and length and had red black carvings around it.

“What the hell is going on with him!” one yelled as they slowly backed away from the Black Knight.

“I don't know man! But he can't take on 15 of us!” another yelled as they got ready to attack.

The girl with the bandages started laughing “killed them all Saber Akamine make them pay for they did to you”

“AAAAAARGGGGGHHHH!” Saber screamed as he began his assault on the enemy forces.

His speed had sharply risen and he was already in front of the shocked the men that was ready to attack. Saber sliced the enemy in half as the blood covered his mask, not giving him any chance of using her to defend herself from the quick attack.

“WHAT THE HELL!? Screamed one of the Half human, as he began to run toward the black knight.

Within seconds, Saber was already in front of him ready to unleash a barrage of attacks. The Half human, strategically ran directly toward him as he began the assault on of the enemy's teammate. Saber took notice and ducked as one of the enemy with the great sword lunged in a diagonal formation cutting through his teammate in order to get to Saber.

“Who is the wasted shit now asshole?” Saber said as he used his blade to cut through the Greatsword wielding soldier's leg.

Saber quickly flipped his sword to stab the Greatsword wielder that was now laid on his back straight to his heart. But as he did, the other Half human, member began to use his sub machine gun straight at him. This however, was futile as he shielded himself from his attack using his left arm. After ending the Greatsword wielder, Saber proceeded with his assault to the others. One was caught running away from the battlefield, knowing that he had no chance of winning.

The girl with bandages “my, my he's a cold-hearted one isn't he”

“You are not going anywhere” he said, as he chased down the terrified Half human.

Saber threw his black imbued sword towards the Half human members with great aim that went right at the Half human head.

Blood… pools of blood now lay on the ground. One might even say that the area was an ocean of blood. The bloody black knight once again fell to his knees in front of the blood of his sister that laid emotionless on the floor.

The girl with bandages “ I wonder how nexy would react to this old type of magic maybe I'll send him the video” The said sending the video to him.

Saber carried his in a cradle position, as if he were holding a newborn baby back to the city. It took hours to walk back, but to Saber… it seemed like days. When he finally arrived in school grounds many bodies lay on the ground. Fire surrounded the area, and as the fire was raging, it began to rain. Saber had an emotionless Face as he looked at the night sky and realized that dark clouds had already formed when he was walking back to the city. He looked back down and continued walking towards the school.

As he walked, he could hear the screams of people yelling for help, but Saber didn't care. Did nothing and continued walking down the cracked road. As he looked what was in front of him, he noticed that the attacks had stopped. The Hunters and Skynet soldiers managed to make the Half human retreat and had wiped out the demons. When he finally arrived into the school, his team and friends waited for him and many other students were gathered to figure out what to do next.

Mariane had turn around when she heard the breathing of a man from her opposite direction.

“Saber?” Mariane said as the rest of the team turned around and stared at the emotionless face that stood before them with a horrified expression that spoke a thousand words. His body, covered in his sister blood and face from carrying her all the way from the forest.

“I'm sorry” Saber said as his light red eyes began to shed tears again as he collapsed to his knees with his Sister still on his arms Frozen.

Mariane and the rest of their team quickly ran towards the collapsed boy that could no longer stand. Their faces gave a horrified look, a look that made it seem as the world was about to end. Their faces were just as horrifying as Saber's face.

“WHAT HAPPENED!” said Mariane loudly, as she looked at the boy terrified light red eyes.

The rest of the students that were there turned around at the sound of mia's yell.

“Who is that? It looks like she's dead.” one of the students said, as she looked on as their team and Manuel and kat were trying to grasp what had happened.

“Isn't that his sister “ another said loudly.

“Hey it is! How could this have happened?” a student in the front row said.

“Mariane… get Maria and Chen and tell them to come help pull his sister out of his arms.” Manuel told Mariane as he proceeded to kneel down in front of Saber.

“Saber tell me… how did this happen?” Manuel said as he held the shoulders of his friend who would be considered close to a brother after spending many years together as best friends with the boy.

Maria and kat proceeded to pull his sister from his arms.

“NO! DON'T TOUCH HER!” Saber exclaimed, as he struggled to hold on to his sister.

“SHE CAN STILL BE SAVED! We just need doctors…” Saber said.

“LOOK AT ME Saber!” Manuel yelled, as he shook Saber trying to get his attention.

“SHE'S DEAD!” Manuel yelled to him, trying to get him to understand that she is no longer alive.

“He said that she's dead.” One student said.

“How did his sister? She is the best magic user in the school, probably one of the best in all of Japan.”

“It's probable that she was trying to protect her weakling. Brother Everyone knew that she loved her dear brother who's a coward a good for nothing”

Saber grinned his teeth after he heard the statement. A voice with sadness and despair yelled.

“BE QUIIIEEEET!” yelled Adalgisa.

“INSTEAD OF JUST STANDING AROUND, GET HELP!” She yelled at the students who slowly backed away and proceeded to get help.

“I… I wasn't strong enough” Saber said as his voice began to crack.

“This isn't your fault Saber. You can't blame yourself for not being able to save her.” Manuel told the boy who couldn't agree to what his best friend had just said.

“She sacrificed herself to SAVE ME!” Saber exclaimed.

“ME! … a weakling brother who to lazy to do anything in his life, a weakling who shouldn't even be here in the first place!”

Kat and Maria managed to pull his sister out of Saber's arms and helped the medical team carry her onto the stretcher.

By simply looking, Mariane could feel Saber's pain. She can feel his despair… his sadness. Tears ran down her fragile face. Looking at the black and white highlights had a bit more white on top of his hair boy made her feel as if she lost someone so close to her, causing it to break her heart in to.

“Saber… let me help you get on the stretcher. You need to get patched up and rest.” His best friend said, not knowing what too else to say to the boy statement.

Mariane quickly ran to the Saber to help Manuel place him onto the stretcher.

She looked at Saber's empty eyes, eyes that no longer had a reason to live in this cruel world. Mariane was now frightened at what she was looking at. Never in her life has she seen someone with those same as her brother eyes, eyes that have come to a realization that nothing that he does will help anyone.

As she looked toward the boy that was being taken to the infirmary, she bit her lower lip to the point where it began to bleed. She was angry, outraged at the people who had done this to the soul crushed Saber again. Mariane wiped off the remaining tears she had left and marched towards her room with in her hand.

Manuel and kat walked outside and looked at the scenery. Smoke, death, and looked at the full moon was what they were seeing.

“Manuel… what are we going to do.” Kat said as she tightly held Manuel's hand.

“I don't know… we'll cross that bridge when we get there.” Manuel said, while he pulled kat closer to his arms

Hours later, the once full moon returned to its natural state.

All the students were now asleep, trying to get the image of blood and gore out of their minds. There were a few magic user and in Warrior and gunsmith still awake, patrolling the school and the surrounding area. As Saber team were at their room sleeping heavily, however, one teammate remained awake. It was Mariane who couldn't sleep, knowing that her close friend is injured and devastated of the loss of a teammate. She was just staring at the shattered white moon, the moon reminded her of Saber, the black knight she came to know. The bright white glow that the moon shined reminded of her of the kindness and generosity that Saber was very well-known for. Every time she was close to him, she always felt as calm and in peace. This was something that she loved about the black knight. She got up and quietly walked to the infirmary room where Saber was held, she wanted that comfort he always had. On her way to the infirmary, she bumped into Nicky Scarl who was patrolling inside the school.

“Sorry Vicky, I didn't see you there.” Mariane said as she tried to avoid talking loudly to keep anyone from hearing.

“It's my fault Mariane. I'm a bit tired and I get really clumsy when that happens… anyways, what are you doing up so late? You should be resting.”

“I should, but I couldn't sleep knowing that a close friend is in an uncomfortable spot right now and I want to just see if he is doing fine.”

“You mean Saber? I heard what happened to him and his sister from other students. It's devastating what I heard, are the rumors true?”

“Yea…it's true.” Mariane said, trying to avoid crying again.

“I'm sorry to hear that, I do hope all you for the best. And do send my regards to Saber when you reach him.” Vicky said with a saddened but sincere voice.

“I will”

“Oh by the way, be careful when roaming around the school or outside of it. The kidnappers will surely use this time as a perfect opportunity to kidnap people.”

“Don't worry, with my knife in my hand, they will think twice before doing something like that.” Mariane said, as she smirked. “Okay, I will see you later”

Both Vicky and Mariane then walked away. Mariane felt a little happy knowing that there is someone else other than her teammates who care about Saber. Mariane finally reached the room in where Mariane was recuperating. She opened the door and saw Saber sitting outside of the wide open window staring at the moon.

“You should be asleep Mariane.” Saber said, with a calming soothing voice that would make any person feel at calm.

“I should, but it's hard to do that when someone close is in pain.” Mariane said, in a caring voice.

“I guess you are right Mariane.”

Mariane walked inside the room and decided to sit next to the crestfallen boy.

“I sometimes wondered… what would my life be as if I never met you or my sister. Would I be living in a small apartment? Would I be working in a shop in some random town earning minimum wage?”

“You would have still ended up here Saber… you want to be able to protect the…”

“Protect what? I couldn't even protect my sister.” Mariane remained silent after hearing that statement.

“Do you know my family's history? The Akamine are heroes and in war, fought many bloody battles and were victorious. They were inspirations to the younger generation. When my mother had me, they told me that they were happy to know that they had a boy that will continue the legacy, but that came to an end when my mother and father hated me for being a failure so when my sister was born she became a better magic users then me they loved her so much but me they hated me but it doesn't matter no more because they're dead.

Mariane put her hand on Saber's shoulder after hearing that. When she heard about Saber's father's and mother death, she could feel the connection they had she felt bad about him having a bad childhood.

“I didn't have any other person to help me train to become like my sister. My mother and father wouldn't allow me to train because they feared that I would end up being my sister down… I understand why they would want me to be safe in their way, but I wanted to help the innocent people that were being terrorized by evil. I want to stop this evil force and bring peace into this world and help my sister. I don't want anyone to no longer suffer.” Saber said, raising his voice slightly.

Saber's eyes began to release tears when she saw that small smile that Saber released after he said. Mariane now fully understood what Mariane felt. She knew now how she felt about him.

It was only a month ago when she was wounded in a confrontation from several demons. She had fought many others and began to run out of stamina and Magic. She couldn't take them all on and thought that this was the end of the road for her, but out came 2 teammates that were separated from the mission. It was Saber and Akari. Akari managed to get the demons' attention which gave Saber the opportunity to pick Mariane up and run away. She looked at the boy that held her and what she saw amazed her. His clear red eyes, his charming hair, and his elegant face that seemed like if he were an angel sent from heaven to come rescue her.

That's where here feelings began and she now acknowledges that she is indeed in love with the boy that stood before her.

“You still can save those you love. Life is meant to be hard time to time, and you can't let that stop you from achieving your dream.” Mariane said as she leaned closer to the Saber.

“But I'm usel…” Saber gets cut off

“No you're not. You managed to stay alive all this time, and as a leader you were able to keep your team alive. Tell me, would you let someone else lead? Knowing that they can fail as a leader and cause your friends to die? Knowing that you could have been the person to be able to save them?” Mariane said, as she stared at him.

Saber looked at the delicate Mariane whose face was a few inches away from his. Her innocent and sincere blue eyes, her soft and gentle hand that was pressed against his left face, her statements about the situation, all these things made Saber realizes that there are still something to live for, something to keep him going. He has friends who are still relying on him, he has friends who do care for him, and he has something to bring to the world and intends on spreading it.

“Thank you Mariane…” Saber said, putting a small sincere smile on his face.

Mariane leaned forward to him, trying to close the gap between them, aiming for the boy lips.

Footsteps were then heard coming towards the door which made Mariane quickly back off from Saber's face and get up.

The door opened and came in Vicky. Mariane face turned red when she saw Vicky staring at the two. Saber didn't understand what was going to happen when Mariane leaned towards him and didn't think too much of it.

“ Mariane what are you still doing here. It's been nearly an hour now and why are the lights off?” Vicky said, with a surprised look as she turned the light on.

“Ummm I kinda lost track of time. You see I was…” Mariane said, as she luckily gets cut off by Saber.

“Mariane was cheering me up. I was feeling down and she wanted to cheer me up. As you can see it took quite a while but she was able to do it” Saber said to Vicky.

“Yeah that's right. That is what I was doing!” Mariane said loudly, trying not blush.

“Oh, okay. Well I think you should really head back to bed, professor nyx told me to keep guard by Saber's room and doesn't want anyone visit him till morning.” Said Vicky.

“Well it is late. I can see why he doesn't want anyone visiting. Why is he still awake anyways?” Saber said as he looked somewhat interested.

“He didn't say why, but I wouldn't consider it weird of him staying up this late knowing that trouble can come at any given hour. That and he is always drinking that special coffee of his.” Vicky responded, with a slight chuckle.

“Yea I guess you're right” Saber said.

“Well I guess I will be heading off Saber, sleep well”. Mariane said, speed walking towards the exit.

Everyone left the room now and Saber returned to his bed.

“I will become better… I will protect my friends.” Saber said as he slowly fell asleep.
