Fate/Empty Forge

Ch 3 a red figure, and a plotting king.

I remarked to the spiral of energy beside me after surveying the me from this timeline experimenting with his abilities. To make sure he couldn't see me whatsoever, I positioned myself on top one of the many skyscrapers here with a clear view towards my old home, with nothing but the wind to attempt to block my shot when I want to kill him once and for all.

Alaya: it's been so many years since that day, and your still complaining about it?

Emiya: oh, well sorry if I'm never happy when Your involved. Especially with that poor timing of yours to encourage me! For a entity that's supposed to be mankind's drive for survival, your slow when it comes to responding to a crisis. At least Gaia has the decency to react right as the environment's being destroyed severely.

Alaya: and she wouldn't hesitate to kill all of humanity when she has the chance. Including you.

Emiya: ....... Do I need to say anything?

Alaya: ... Fair enough.

Emiya:.....

Alaya: .............

Emiya:.........so, how long till I get to kill him?

Alaya: Undetermined. You are only allowed to kill this time's Shirou Emiya when he decides to become an enemy to the world or humanity. So it can take days, weeks, or even years.

Emiya: wait a minute, why wait for possibly a few decades for him to show signs of becoming a threat when I could just kill him right now?

Alaya: asking questions isn't apart of your assignment.

Emiya: we aren't going anywhere for a while. I think we'll have enough time to add it sooner or later.

Alaya: .... Fine. But only one per day.

Emiya: great. A daily restriction on a damn question by humanity's over glorified snow globe. What an honor.

Alaya: quiet you. So do you think you could kill magic users like the Kaleidoscope, or the Attainer of the fifth without anyone knowing, or creating a large 'accident'?

Emiya: for the fifth? Possibly if she just came out from a fight that seriously drained her, or had her abuse the fifth far more then she's used too. As for Zelretch.... Don't see why I should to begin with. Isn't he the third Dead Apostle Ancestor? So as a result, shouldn't he be a guardian of the planet like your agents to humanity?

Alaya: that's besides the point.

Emiya: then, no. He's far too strong, and knowledgeable over his magic to even do much to him.

Alaya: and that's exactly why you have to wait till the last moment. We don't know if he won't ever become a threat to humanity, or will till the very last minute when if we don't take care of him then, he'll do much more damage then we could ever do.

Emiya:.... But this is while he's still experimenting. There's literally nothing stopping me from killing him with a sword to the head all the way over here-

Alaya: Avalon.

Emiya: he doesn't even know he has it yet! There's no way he can realize he has it, use it, and save himself from a shot all the way over here in the time it takes me to fire.

Alaya: your still gonna stay here, and wait till I tell you to attack him regardless on what you want to do, Emiya.

Emiya: I Hate You.

Alaya: You don't hide it well.

Meanwhile, near the two bickering agent, and will of humanity
