Fate/Stay Cursed: Cursed In The Holy Grail War | Itadori In Fate/Zero

Chapter 7: The plan

The pink-haired boy looked at the moonlight, he wasn't thinking about anything, but apparently, this became his hobby, looking at the moon before going to sleep. Even just looking at the sky, Itadori let himself be carried away by his momentary thoughts about his friends, who at that moment were his only family. - "How are they now?" - Itadori kept wondering about this.

The boy who was on the roof of the castle looks down to see a familiar figure, a girl with golden hair and a blue dress, it was Saber. Itadori catches his attention. - "SABER, HERE!" - Itadori shouts to Saber.

Saber looked towards the direction of the voice, it was Itadori waving to her on the roof of the castle. Without realizing Saber smiled and waved back, Saber was climbing and jumping from roof to roof to get to the boy.

Upon arriving on the roof, Saber sits down next to Itadori. - "Sup" - said Itadori. - "Hello, Yuji. What are you doing here?" - Saber says, sitting next to Itadori. - "Ah, I don't know, I just.... thinking..... When I was a Jujutsu sorcerer, I didn't have time to rest, I know things are going to get harder, but it gives me some relief be here, understand?" - said Itadori.

"I understand, I can say the same. It seems that now we have time to observe the moon..." - Saber said, letting go of her hair.

Itadori saw Arturia letting her hair down, he couldn't help but notice how handsome she looked with her hair down. The two were just watching the moon in silence, it was their moment, just theirs. After a few minutes of silence, Itadori asked a bold question. - "Saber.... Arturia, have you ever fallen in love?" - Itadori asked sincerely.

Saber was surprised by the question. - "Um, I never thought about it. I was already married and had a child, but it was a duty to be done, it wasn't something I really wanted." - Said Saber. - "Wow, all this so soon..." - said Itadori.

Saber looked at Itadori. - "I may look like a teenager, but in life, I was 24 years old." - Saber said. - "S-really? I thought you were my age." - Itadori said somewhat disappointed. - "With the use of Avalon, the object I was summoned made my body remain at the age I became king." - Said Saber. - 'That's when she took out Excalibur.' - thought Itadori.

"As we are heroic spirits, age no longer matters, since we don't age. How old were you in life." - Said Saber. - "Well, my body stays the same as it always has, probably 15 years." - said Itadori.

"Since you're the one who started this question, I'll throw it at you. Yuji, have you ever fallen in love with someone?" - Saber said doubtfully. - "Well... There was a girl who was a my friend, but I don't know if I had feelings for her...." - said Itadori. He remembered Nobara.

"She was killed by this Sukuna guy?" - Saber asked. -"No, but her life was taken unfairly... I think that was what motivated me to keep fighting, it was all these people I lost along the way, I want to honor their deaths." - said Itadori.

Saber goes back to look at the moon. - "You still haven't decided what you're going to ask for for the holy grail, have you?" - Said Saber. - "Yes... " - said Itadori. - "That's why we're fighting, just like you and me, those two down there are fighting to create a better world, we're going to help each other to achieve that goal. Come on, Yuji, I feel my master's presence, it feels like he It’s already arrived.” - Saber said after transforming his clothes into his black suit. Itadori just agrees and does the same thing.

The two climb down from the roof and enter the castle. When they arrived at the meeting room, Kiritsugu was waiting for the two to arrive. - "Apologies for the delay." - said Itadori. - "Where is Mrs. irisviel." - Saber asked.

"I haven't called for the meeting yet. Saber, go get her." - said Kiritsugu without looking at Saber. - "Okay... " - Saber said without questioning.

When Saber left the room, Itadori couldn't help but feel uncomfortable with Kiritsugu's presence, the man never looked at Itadori directly, it bothered him. "Why don't you ever look into our eyes?" - asked Itadori, but received no answer, which made him even more uncomfortable.
