Story[]
Over at the Skyview Resort, a human male in his mid-30s, wearing the typical medieval British clothing with a ginger beard and goes by the name of Kiritsugu Emiya, was walking towards the docks to get on his ship to return to his home. Looking back, he sees the manager who decided to see him off, with a smile full of passion and life, he is happy to know the youth are happy in the time of peace since the Infinity War in the Acorn Kingdom. He smiles and waves, gets on the ship.
"That as a glorious vacation!" Kiritsugu yawns as he stretched, but was smacked in the head by the Tribunal Staff. Looking down, he sees a young cat mobian who has black fur. "Hello Skyfly" He bows to her, which prompt her to smile.
"Hello Emiya, I suggest your time here at Skyview was a blast?" She asked.
"Yes actually, one of the better locations on Mobius. I gotten sleep and was able to enjoy myself for once. But I am also happy to see you my young studen." He poke her nose and she just shook her head. Then the ship's captain voice was heard over the microphone stating the ship is leaving dock for Britain in 10 minutes. Looking down at his friend, the two went to their rooms and prepared for dinner.
It has been a hour since they left the port, and was now heading to Britain, the continent of the humans. Sipping his drink has he sat near the pool the ship, Kiritsugu simply watch as mobian and human alike talk, drank and eat together like friends and comrades. He wish this would go on for some time, however the prophecy Apollo gave was a frightening one.
"Oracle of Delphi, a prophecy has been made" Apollo spoke to the High Council of the Mage's Association as he appeared in divine light. Chatter consumed the council until the Grand Caster shouted them to hush, and walks towards Delphi and Apollo.
"My dear Lord of the Sun, what prophecy do you speak?" The Grand Caster asked them both, and the two stared at each other, before looking back towards the elder man.
"Grand Caster, I fear the dwellers of Purgatory will rise to feed on the Root of Gaia. And the prophecy involves your King." Apollo answered as the council gasp in shock, and one councilmen stood up from his chair.
"What do you mean? What does King Arthur have to do in this prophecy?" He asked, and Apollo looks at him with his eyes being the sun itself, spooked the man to sit down.
"I can not say much, but I can say that he will be the Chosen One that will save all of existence." In a burst of light, Apollo vanishes and so does Delphi. And the council spoke each other to do what is next.
Sighing, Kiritsugu placed his drink down as he saw his black cat friend walking towards him.
"Having I see?" She asked in a way he find odd.
"Oh yes I am, enjoying the rays of Apollo, is truly a marvel not many can feel. But, I am worried on what Apollo said."
"Do not worry, it will be fine. Besides, I am sure Helios is only a mythological being from the Age after all. So stop stressing Kiri, and have fun"
"But that's just it Skyfly, that is not a mythology anymore since Apollo revealed himself, and so did the Twelve Divines. But I do have a play to show!!" He dramatically poses as he held his book.
Over at the railing, a mobian couple, two wolfs was happily enjoying the ocean view.
"This is so beautiful dear. I thank you for taking me" She cuddled against her mate he chuckled.
"I thank you for being with me." The cuddled unto the female wolf noticed something about the ocean. There was steam coming from it, and told her husband. "That's o--" However, before they reacted, they gotten a dose of hyper-dense heat that instantly melted their skins off, only having their skeleton remains, and this absolutely terrified Kiritsugu, to the point he formed a protected divine barrier with Caliburn.
As soon Kiritsugu put the barrier over himself, and Skyfly, a gigantic humanoid skeletal figure of pure fire emerged from the oceans below, and with the heat it exerted, it started to burn and melt everything around it, from the metal of the boat, the people and even the bones after the skin melted. The air evaporated into nothing, even the ocean around it is gone. Skyfly watch in horror as everyone melted and died around her die, and saw the bones that she talked melted. Even the children of the mobians and humans in the pool was no more.
"I SHALL DRIVE THE DARKNESS FROM GAIA!!!" Kiritsugu shouted at the top of his lungs, scaring Skyfly as he chants. "ALL WICKED SHALL BEGONE, AND ALL THE DARKNESS WILL BE DEFEATED BY THE EVERLASTING LIGHT OF APOLLO; CALIBURN!!!!" He slash his holy sword down, generating a wave of pure divine energy into the Flame Titan, sending back 50 meters away from them, and with every bit of his strength, he performed true magic as he teleports away from the metling boat and into Britain. The fiery titan stood as the water evaporates around him and laughed as his echoes is heard throughout the world.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!" His lower jaw of his jaw dangles has laughter.
Over at Skyview, many of the mobians, including Felica saw a large beam of fire striking the sky from the ocean. It was also the direction Kiristugu took to return home, which worried her. She hopes Kiritsugu is ok until she, and many other mobians hear a laugh so dark and cold, it shook her. Now she really worried for the human.
