A Thief's pride
Being an infamous thief of the underworld, you gotta be aware with your surroundings, Even in the sight of sheer chaos and confusion, you mustn't let the hysteria of your surroundings dictate your judgment, but on the contrary use it to your advantage to create an opportunity. You have to find an opening to devise an escape route in that short period of time given to you. Not only that, you must a keen eye and a gut instinct to distinguish if the heist has gone sour.
In this case, Tili's and Riyu's short relieve bonding together and their servants fighting. The short experience that the horseman and the pink haired girl thief shared together punching other people in imaginative ways possible with their fist in this riot was a surprisingly pleasant one. Finding allies in the midst of this battlefield.
But this was indeed a bitter farewell for the two.
She fled.
To Riyu, being a master in this grail war comes first before founding a new sparring buddy with Tili or perhaps becoming his new pupil if fate dictates.
She sighed and compose herself, mustering up the courage to make a risky decision. As a master, she has to aid her criminal servant to against the two heroic spirits. consuming a command seal to even the odds of these two so-called heroes.
"Thief of heavens,
Slayer of giants,
This is not the time nor place to doubt yourself,
Heighten your senses and let go of what is burdening you, (suck it up, wudya?)
A cunning thief must know how to defy the odds, this is our creed and our way of life!!"
"Unleash your treasure in your bag of tricks,
Your treasure is your treasure alone no matter how or where you acquire it,
Saber, by my command seal, fight with your heart's content,
use the power of the Durandal!! claim it, it's yours!!!"
Slayer of giants,
This is not the time nor place to doubt yourself,

"Unleash your treasure in your bag of tricks,
Your treasure is your treasure alone no matter how or where you acquire it,
Saber, by my command seal, fight with your heart's content,
use the power of the Durandal!! claim it, it's yours!!!"
For a mere second, before the relentless attack took place, Riyu activated her command seal to aid her servant to defy the odds stacked against him. A reminder that this is the life they chose, the life of a wanted man who is always on the run, with no regrets whatsoever.
This was their intent.
With that, the one of her markings vanished.
"Nothing personal, but my duty as a thief and a master comes first" Riyu sheepishly said to herself while imagining the image of Tili as she's escaping, showing what she really is, an infamous thief and one of the accomplices of his Servant's misfortune. She fled from the chaotic scene. Without a trace, the thief girl vanishes in the godforsaken native district. She swiftly ran, nimbly avoiding any hostile person that comes her way. Where Riyu went is anyone's guess.

Curiosity got the Rat.
It was dirt, nothing but a pile of dirt.
Turns out there's nothing here but rubble and debris from the residue of an explosion I presume? Ratface dissolves into multiple pieces of rats and investigates the crime scene, spreading out to look for clues and what causes all of this.
The place is infected with plague rats from each corner of the ruined home, rabidly searching for any bit of information they could find.
They dig and dig until they've found something. A tunnel underneath the rubble. A collapse hole. was it man made? hard to tell by the strange markings.
"Are ya seeing this boss?" Ratface scans his findings with his beady eyes, projecting the disturbing image to the Rat king. Claw marks within the entrance of the tunnel
"Hmm.. keep searching, I don't want anything or anyone causing trouble within the city without my permission, Everything that goes within my reach should know they are being monitored and because I let them do what they do.." Caster sighed.
"find the source of all of this.." Piper ordered ratface, being obsessive of being in control as he is.
"Metal?" Ratface picks up bits of metal as he goes along.
Obeying his creator's order, The cursed monstrosity went straight for the tunnel without any hesitation, scurrying underneath the land...
Only leading to the temple area by the end of it. so what now? I guess its time to scout for clues before this trail comes to a dead end.

"All of this classes have shown up on my feeds on each corner of the map and yet the Assassin class hasn't made any news lately. Perhaps there is something that I'm not aware off, Even though this class excels in eluding others, I should get a tiny hint on what their activities are since I practically own every network of familiar spies in this country." The Rat king sighed with discontent while he skims through the history of the past events.
Something needs to change. Perhaps an agent of the shadows will spice things up for the best. The man-made riot was a success, but that was his master's doing. The Bard just sits there and feels the need to do something to measure up to that standard. This holy grail war is getting really dull and passive since the last two servants died. I need something to speed up the process. Caster plotted and picks up a piece of invitation that his familiar gathers.
as far as the Familiar to Familiar interaction goes, It safe to say they do not like the Penguin messenger. Piper's dorty rats violently hiss on the adorable bluebird as they yank the note out of its flippers with any hesitation like the crook that they are and scurries back into the darkness where they belong.
Piper read the note once more and pondered for a while. "This is for master Enzo to decide if wants to participate in this trivial matter" He sighed and leans on his principal chair, spinning around it out of boredom to pass the time while he's inside his personal office. @Seirei no Hai
Piper looks back at his multiple 50-inch monitor projection screens, and sees something is amiss, It appears there's an extra element to the man-made war that Enzo has started. His familiars can sense a foul energy near that parts that even match or surpass the Rat Kings's foul presence.
After much thought, He contacts his trusty familiar, Ratface.
"Hey there, Ratface, It's me, ya boss.. be a dear and investigate the unknown disturbance in the native district, I'm sure you'll understand since I'm running a school and all. You know very well, I can't leave my job and have these scamps running amok without anyone watching over them..heh, I sure do love them kids..so youthful and full of life..." He grins and looks at his office window, peeking at the innocent students playing around the schoolyard.
"Also, carry out a message for me while you're there, do it discreetly and I hope to get results by the end of it. If not, you already know what happens to rats that don't meet my expectations. You remember well your prototype, Wilber? I heard he didn't squeak that well, Don't disappoint me.. good luck" Piper said with a calm yet sinister tone to his familiar henchman.

Dropping Ted under the custody of Piper's other familiars for protection, The curse monstrosity is on a solo mission to find the source of this explosion near the Western farm district. He dissolves in multiple pieces of rats, traveling underground in multiple pacts, sneaking past the feud between the muricans and the local yakuza clan and hopes to find this supernatural being that's been rumored to show up in this parts of town.
Piper wants every bit of information or gossip he can squeeze within this city if he wants his master to succeed in taking over. Afterall, as the saying in the future murican cartoon series goes, Knowing is half the battle.

Magus of Fist
"I believe you, hold one sec..."
"Hiya!!!" with a simple series of weave and a counter-attack, Riyu jabs a rioter's important parts with a flurry of chops, disrupting the flow of the mook's vital nerves, almost leaving the man paraplegic from her strikes.
"Your heartbeat didn't skip a beat when you told me about yourself."She pants and smiles at Tili, Casually ducking at the thrown bottle at the chaotic scene. Her mystic eyes can tell can if the person is lying since she can clearly see through their organs without any hindrances. A built-in lie detector if you will.
"I don't really know if I should be concerned about the horse part tho but it sounds interesting" She giggled before speaking again.
"Since you're being honest and all, i'll return the favor Tili, I'm too a master myself, The name's Riyu.." She said dodging a man with a knife, disarming him and kicking him in the sheen.
"Can't wait for my servant to meet up with your servant, I'm sure they'll get along just fine if that day comes.." Riyu smiled, oblivious to the fact that their servants had already met, in the most contradictory way possible back in the Foreign District.
"Anyways, I'm not here for the Holy Grail war biz, I was hired here to clean up these foreigners by a contractor to say the least," She said and continues to fight on the incoming frenzied men. They just won't end. It pandamonium in here.
"I don't usually have a fighting style if you will, i just target their vital parts and see what sticks, you, on the other hand, your like a kung-fu master, heh. As long as its free, i'm willing to learn a few of your tricks." Riyu said with a smirk, being modest and continues to enjoy herself on this brawl fighting alongside with the Tili, throwing hands whoever comes their way.

"I love the smell of money, even in japan, it smells heavenly." Riyu giggles and takes a whiff of the stack paper bills around her hand for getting compensated by the man in the eye-patch, Their public service of infiltrating and getting rid of the notorious kidnapper around these parts. Jack mostly did the heavy lifting, while she watches from a safe distance and patiently waits for him, nevertheless, the result was successful and it was all a team effort from the thieves duo of this grail war(not really).
As an extra bonus, these culprits happens to be a master and servant pair who's participating in this war, a mad scientist, and his unknown master. I guess their security is faulty to let this happened. It is truly unfortunate really, Riyu is in tears.
She shrugs and moves on.
"I'll go to where the riot is at, sounds fun, you sit this one out Jack, I'll call you if I need any aid.. Enjoy you two lovebirds.." With that remark, Riyu walks away.

Oh, boy, the petite thief girl was in for a treat when she got there...
Everything is shit, Pandamonium everywhere! The hysteria of killing intent is almost contagious.
Foreigners have taken over in the most hostile way possible.
Shatter glasses, People running in this discord, Gunfire, and smoke.. Riyu smiles at the sight of chaos. Time to get in the action. She cracks her fist and neck and dives into the fray.
You wanna get nuts, Lets get nuts.
She smirks and sprints towards, Her vision enhances and activates her mystic eye, The pink girl only saw moving skeletons with her x-ray vision, every anatomy of their human being, showing their weak spots where they are most vulnerable.
She just wants to punch somebody, beat em to a pulp. Anyone who comes after the thief girl with blind rage will surely get paralyze from her swift strikes and punches. If these people were a magus, the result could be more devastating or even fatal.
She's mainly a chi blocker with the grace of a phantom thief.
Strike after strike, blows after blows, The nimble thief makes her way to a certain area where she met a particular magus. The hostile gang seems to be targeting the man in this brawl, time to even the odds.
She starts running towards them, limping the thugs around the horseman with her acrobatics, targeting their tendons with her precise punches, sweeping their legs in a fluid motion. Clearing most them as she makes her introduction.
"I like your style old man, Mind if i cut in and join in the fun?" She said with a playful smile, striking a defending pose."you're a magus aren't you?"

All-out War
"I will see what I can do," The mystical bard humbly answered his master, and dematerialize in the air, knowing the task given to him.
Being Enzo's faithful servant, His orders are Piper's law by default. Just like how the faithful Jester of Hemilin serves his king for ages, Piper obeys without any question or receiving any gratitude for a job well done in return.
He remains unopposing and passive about it. This situation seems to be oddly familiar has its similarities and hopefully, this one has a pleasant outcome.
With the rat king's magecraft and item creation, he conjures tools that would aid Enzo's crusade in taking over the unruly rioters. An extra-edge if you, will to their performance in this takeover.
A charm that negates most of mental interference effects and magecraft alike, to level the playing field. This is the war of the people, not mages, let them have their pleasure of inflicting pain on each other. Let them fight with their heart's content, cuz that what humanity does, it's in their standard nature.
As an enabler of his Master's waging war against the Yakuza and the rioters, Piper has provided Enzo's pretty brunette lieutenant with chemical weapons that won't be able to trace back into him. Nothing grandeur of the black plague or anything, just enough toxin to infect people, introducing a tiny inch of chemical warfare to the land of the rising sun.
Serving as a distraction from this panic and disorder from the streets, guess what time is it for the Caster class? that's right, Its time to plot and turtle once again.
Oh, joy...
He raised his academy's defenses and has gather materials to create a rat brain that grows beneath his lair, its efficiency is not fully developed yet and hence he needs more time.
The karmic line seems to be in order. Now to check on the kids, or rather his batteries,
The abducted children scream with agonizing pain as their lifeforce is being succ away, tortured like a lab rat as their cries echo through the academy.
Caster just watches there, with a deadpan expression, unfazed by what godawful atrocity he is committing.
surprisingly enough, Piper doesn't take pride or glee in this horrific experiment for one second, He has to stomach on what he is doing for the greater good of things. The hardest choices require the strongest wills.
People will die from this war, might as well utilize them as a means to an end.

The Lesser Evil
Heroic deeds are dead.
There is only greed.
Greed that drives a man to do heroic deeds for others.
Benefiting them in a selfish manner and if some twist of fate, somehow profiting others in the process.
In this case or In Caster's situation, securing the Leylines of Japan and his connection to the land, playing the lesser evil between him and the False Yggdrasil.
The assault was successful, the tree is not around stepping Piper's connection with the land anymore.
This alliance with the homunculi girl and her navy servant are really paying off. Rest assured, The Rat king's friends from the sea are protected by him and the mafia. A "You'll scratch my back, I'll scratch your back" kinda deal cause that's how the boys in the swanky suit rolls.
But this no time to gloat for the battle of the leylines isn't done yet.
Piper has to establish dominance to ensure this kind of threat won't happen while he is around. It's time to prep like a villain. Thinking one step ahead, severing ties with freeloaders who dares to step on his cheerios and claiming back the land, his land. A lawful evil powermove if you will or as the mafia saying goes "you hit me and we'll hit back".

A Triumphant Return
"Hey, Jack, where are you? i don't like the look of this guy, he's get cranky by the minute, or maybe that's his natural look..either way, get in here, pronto!" Riyu demanded like a spoiled brat, mentally linking her thoughts to her servant. She felt uneasy being with the Yakuza for the time being, knowing that if this mission is a bust, she could get killed at any moment.
Luckily for the thief girl, the heist was successful.
"Oh thank god you're here, i supposed the mission goes as successful," Riyu happily claps her hands as soon as her criminal servant returned.
"wait a minute! Is that a living corpse? ehh.. nevermind, i don't want to ask, you can spare me the details later" She sighed, clutching her forehead on what the hell Jack has stolen this time.
"Show our client here the goods and the clean job you've done." Riyu snapping his fingers, demanding Jack to present the evidence of his successful mission.

"Master, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the child master has declined to see you eye to eye for personal reason and our proposal seems to be on the tentative side. But fret not, she is keeping her options open and willing to discuss terms with you in the form of her representative" Piper manifested infront of Enzo.
"Uhmm, yeah, so her envoy is a floating mask.... and strangely enough it has a name... it's Ted." Piper sheepishly said, scratching his chin, almost unable to introduce the girl's reluctant envoy.
"It's kinda skittish after seeing Ratface so try not to intimidate it as much" Caster sighed.
"Nevertheless, should I let 'it' in here to discuss negotiation? I mean you could just tell your message through one of my familiars to avoid risk" The well-suited bard said, hoping Enzo would take this compromise deal and waits for his decision.

"Everything checks out, I just need to wait for a confirmation from my master and you're all set" Ratface's arm reassemble itself and casually waits for his master's signal.

Thieves for Hire
Somewhere down the Native District, A strange deal or rather a sidequest was a proposed for the thieve duo of this holy grail war. It's rather odd that a prestige organization such as the Yakuza would consider contracting a deal with scoundrels and swindlers at their caliber. I guess this unexpected job request must require dirty hands and tactics to resolve the city's dilemma, and there are no better dirty hands than the thief girl Riyu and her infamous saber servant, Jack. Its what they do for a living.
Before getting into the details, The thief girl has taken a glimpse of the guy's colorful tattoo around his body, examining the rugged man from head to toe and wondering what kind of deal they are making. could this guy be one of them? She pondered, knowing this is no ordinary client they are speaking into.
She stood still along with her servant, Jack and listens to the intimidating man with the eyepatch has to offer.
Riyu hears Mr. Kage unfortunate sob story about his wife and son, keeping a straight face as he goes along. To be honest, this kind of story doesn't really surprise her but the way this yakuza dad describe how his family got abducted in an unusual way, its somehow peak the thief girl's curiosity. Perhaps this guy is on to something. She thought to herself.
Her mind starts to drift somewhere else about the possibility of this kidnapping is the work of a magecraft or a magus. But as soon as she heard the bounty this man is offering right in front of her. Her train of thoughts was immediately drowned by her greed. Riyu's ears wiggles with excitement and All Riyu can see now is Yen bills flashing before her eyes.
Gold, protection, perhaps my very own bishounen harem manservants in my very own private mansion! oh boy, this is too good to be true. Riyu thought to herself and continues to drift into her thought...Money, Money, Money! Riyu imagines herself being carried by some gorgeous men into her private hot-spring, setting a nice warm- hot bath underneath the view her luxurious pagoda mansion. This sounds like an opportunity only a fool would pass by.
The greedy thief girl's delusional daydream was cut short as The yakuza man finishes his proposition, snapping her back into reality and clears her throat before speaking.
"I don't usually do a hit on someone, but after the promising compensation you generously proposed, it would be ashamed if you give it to some else," Riyu said, being almost being completely transparent about her true motive."We'll take the job, Riyu and Jack retrieval service is open for business.." She said with confidence, disclosing their real name to the man who they will be partnering with.
"Lemme just say, you'll get your moneys worth with the deal your making, we're trained professionals, My servan... I mean my partner here is a master in the art of the heist and as for me, my eyes are trained to see the impossible no matter how hidden they are." Riyu smirks and offers her lip service to the man.
"We'll find this culprit who is responsible for this, Mr... uhm? I didn't catch your name.." The thief girl said extending her hand.
