Fate/ Phantasia - The Lone Master

Chapter 61: Returning to Chaldea

"Sooo...that's what happened...," Sakura nodded slowly as she stares at each Servant,
However, her eyes would always return to Emiya...making him quite uncomfortable...

"U-Um...could you please not stare...?" Emiya asked,
"O-Oh! I-I'm sorry! It's just that...you're really Emiya-senpai....but not really him at the same time...," Sakura said,

"Erhm...it is quite complicated," Emiya scratches his head shyly,
"But...is it really true? Ritsuka-chan is really alive....?" Sakura asked, one could see that her hands are shaking...

"Yes, she's alive and well," Artoria said,
"What's more! She even saved humanity from extinction and beat up a Demon God's ass!" Jeanne said, "See!? Isn't she amazing!?"

".....I see," Sakura said with a surprised look on her face, but a smile then appears on her face, "Though it does sound pretty amazing...I'm still relieved to hear that that little girl is still alive and well...she even grew up to become such an amazing person...," Sakura started to sob,
"Hey hey, aunt Sakura...don't cry," Ritsu said with a wry smile, "Though I kinda understand...,"

"Sakura, I heard that Ritsuka was taken care of by you while that guy was away," Emiya said,
"Even though we're not really her parents, we're still grateful that she's surrounded by people that loved her." Artoria said with a smile,
"Oh no! It was nothing special! I just happened to be available to look after her...and she was very lonely...Taiga was busy working as a teacher...so I wanted to help," Sakura said,

"That's is still amazing, to care for a child that is not your own," Artoria said,
"........But, when can she come back? S-she will return, right?" Sakura asked,

"About that, we still have some things to do so we're still not sure when she will return," Artoria said,
"I-is that so...?" Sakura appeared dejected,
"But don't worry, she'll come back safe and sound!" Cu said,
"I understand....then, thank you for looking after her, and please contusion to do so," Sakura bows her head,

"Hey! Sorry for leaving you guys!" Rin called out as she descend the stairs with a luggage,
"Everything's ready, I already called a cab for you mom," Ritsu said, "I'll take your bags to the cab,"
"Yeah, thanks!" Rin said,

"So...what will you do now? Do you...to see Taiga?" Rin asked,
"Well, I'm still not sure whether she can take this all in....," Emiya said,

"That's not going to be a problem actually. Taiga already knows what we all do, I'm sure she can take all of this information in. Sakura and Ritsu will be there with you so I don't think you'll have any trouble," Rin said,
"Yes, please leave it all to me to help you with Taiga!" Sakura said,

"Thanks, and be careful on your way, Rin," Emiya said,
"Yeah, thanks," Rin nodded,
"Stay safe on your journey," Artoria said,

"...Hehe! It's not everyday that you get to talk to a famous King of Britain! Thank you, Saber! Can't believe that even at this age I'm still this excited!" Rin said with a big smile on her face that even Artoria caught a glimpse of the usual Rin she remembers,

........

In the end, Rin left the residence toward the airport. Sakura and Ritsu decides to take the Servants to the Emiya Residence. However, Ritsu still has something to do so he'll catch up later.
"Taiga said that she'll be back late, so let's wait for her there," Sakura said,
"You have the key?" Emiya asked,

"Yes, I sometimes drop by to help Taiga with the chores," Sakura said,

"Hmm, I find that quite strange," Gilgamesh suddenly spoke,
"Huh!?" Sakura jump from Gilgamesh's words,
"O-oh so you do speak....," Sakura said,
