《The Toys of the Fool》Vol.2 Prologue - Invitation to the Guild
Advertisement
“Welcome to the Sleeping Sheep Centre otherwise known as the S.S Centre!”
Shortly to when these words were spoken Gen and two other masters immediately went their way to complain to Eden about some matters. To be precise even though they knew from the beginning that they would train the group to become part of the guild, the methods that Eden used was too cruel to begin with.
“Wait a second! Are you trying to sweep the issue of what you did before with this happy ending?!” complained Gen in a loud voice that shocked Sain first.
“Precisely! Why the hell did you alter the content of the trial to make it worst than before?! It should be the other way around! You should've made it easier for them so they didn't need to suffer so much!” shouted Mel which shocked Serena next.
Eden looked at they annoyed at the fact they were complaining at this precise moment where he couldn't really punish them in front of the new recruits. He wanted to be a respected Guildmaster to them at least after all considering what happened to the current lot which he trained before.
“They're fine now” replied Eden, however this only angered them even more.
“That's not the point you idiot!” shouted Jenny this time even though she still had a fear of Eden in general even with her long forgotten respect for him. Jenny actually cared for Miriel and the look on her face was enough to put her off for a long time.
The only calm ones were Park, Anna; both whom accepted this result to begin with since it was Eden who was doing things now and also surprisingly Ron.
“Well at least Lyndis grew up a bit thanks to this” said Ron that was strangely detached to the well-being to Lyndis.

“Ron don't you care about the well-being of Lyndis” asked Park to his words.
“Not really right now. Before I was quite happy to have her as an apprentice since she was similar to me but then I learnt that she was really similar to me in the past....” Ron replied with a sad smile. It was a smile that wasn't perverted and insulting to others, one that Lyndis never saw before.
“...Logical result from what Eden did” said Anna all of a sudden not really caring about Shadow due to her loyalty to Eden for the most part.
“Why are you lot on his side?!” demanded Gen hearing this. He could not understand why they, masters of part of the group didn't care at all of their well-being that was being twisted and stomped on by Eden.
“Simply because I expected this would happen to begin with” said Park to the question with a sigh to his old friend.
“That still doesn't matter! In fact, you should have at least tried to stop him!” retorted Gen.
“Then why didn't you Gen? Was it due to fear or a lack of power you didn't act. The same with you two as well, Mel, Jenny” Park looked over at the two as well that seemed to have calmed down at least seeing that their disciple were now fine.
“More or less fear” “Yep, it was due to fear and the lack of power to do anything”
The two replied at the same time. They remembered how Eden and the other two did whatever they wanted whenever they wanted with them suffering in the end. However it seems to them that Eden truly wanted them to respect him at least to a certain extent for now.
Whack!
Suddenly a knife was deflected away from Gen that was thrown by Anna all of a sudden.

“Tch.”
Anna was annoyed that Gen didn't get hit and die from the surprise attack.
“What the hell was that for?!” demanded Gen with his emotions still raving around inside him.
Anna looked innocently at Gen and said, “Hoped that you would die this time.”
Whack!
Then Eden moved and hit Anna on the head without noticing that he moved. He let out a small laugh and said:
“You're not allow to attack Gen when he could die.”
“Then it's all right for her to attack me any time beside that?!” retorted Gen.
Eden looked at Gen with amusement and said, “Gen, aren't you suppose to be angry with me? Did your anger disappear already...? If not I can....play with you.”
Eden's black eyes glowed with a frightening colour was stood out in the dark underground room they were in. It was not enough to cause the new recruits to faint from it like when with Serena in the past but it was still very intimidating at least Gen which it was directed to.
“....damn” muttered Gen since he was easily defeated in many ways at once.
Eden smiled since this issue was now over and then turned to the six new recruits and said immediately:
“From now on, your training will be dealt with by me.”
““““““Huh?””””””
All of the masters including the three that weren't angry with Eden were shocked. This was such an unreasonable demand all of a sudden.
“Also...you six over there” Eden pointed at the masters, “Will be demoted to aids in their training.”
““““““What?!””””””
The six new recruits to the S.S Centre....Sain, Raven, Shadow, Miriel, Lyndis and Serena could only stare at these scenes following through with disbelief. They had never expected anything like this at all and yet for some reason they expected this considering how the Guildmaster Eden acted to their masters...no former masters now.
“Did we make the right choice....?” wondered Sain aloud asking the same questions in everyone's minds.

8 74Fate Overcharge (Stalled)
Rin Tohsaka, the young genious magus who, using the power of the holy grail, built an empire spanning the whole world, decides to use the power of the second sorcery to expand her empire to other realms and... Ehm, sorry, wrong story. Err, alright, starting again... Rin Tohsaka is the current head of the Tohsaka family and a likely master in the upcoming fifth grail war. She doesn't have a wish she wants granted, but she will fight to win. For if there is a battle to be fought, could a Tohsaka settle for any less than a complete victory? This is a fan fiction for the Fate/StayNight and an alternative rendition of the fifth grail war that introduces new characters, and shows never before seen sides of the old ones. Since this is a fan fiction, knowledge of the original works is needed to understand it. Watching stay/night or zero should be sufficient, but reading both works along with Hollow Ataraxia is recommended for not missing any details. (I won't assume the readers have read Hollow A.) - Warning: Tagged Mature(+15) mainly for violence and strong language. Nothing graphic, and still a lot milder than the original Visual Novel - Note1: I am trying to improve so constructive critisizm and random comments are welcome. Note2: Be warned! Update rate will likely be slow. How slow, I can't say. Note3: I don't consider any side works in the franchise as cannon. So if, for some reason, Nero is summoned, do not riot when he turns out to be a burly, hairy caster. (That won't happen!)
8 325Two Existentialists | S.R.
"How many existentialists does it take to screw a lightbulb?" Spencer asked with a small laugh. Once again the room was silent. You faintly heard Agent Rossi mutter, "Don't.""2. One to change the light bulb and one to observe how it symbolizes an incandescent beacon of subjectivity in a netherworld of cosmic nothingness," he said. The room was silent still, until you laughed. His eyes looked up at yours in confusion. "Wouldn't they sit in the dark and hope that the bulb decided to light again? An existentialist would never change the bulb. He would allow the darkness to exist," you questioned.-#1 #spencerreid#1 #mgg#1 emilyprentiss
