[ Ever since that terrible end to her experience in the fourth grail war, Saber waited outside the bounded realm of time. She stewed in her despair, cursing the name of Kiritsugu Emiya for forcing her to destroy her one hope of salvation. In the moments that followed she drowned in the black mud that festered inside, the deluge spreading out like an ocean and consuming all it touched. The agony that she suffered in those few moments overwhelmed her mind, and as she thought that her end had finally arrived, she found herself thrust back onto that desolate hill.
Something changed inside her. That much she knew for certain. She felt the corruption festering her soul, tearing away at her mind and forcing her to feel despair greater than anything she knew before. She wished for nothing more than death, yet when she felt the tugging of the grail drawing her back to Fyukui how could she refuse? She of all people knew that second chances were rare, and the possibility of reverting everything that had gone wrong in her life seemed too enticing to pass up.
The tumultuous sound of a thunderclap heralded her arrival as she materialized in the Tohsaka living room. Raw magical energy cackled forth, sundering the room and scattering books, furniture, and knickknacks as the room tried to contain the summoning energy. After a few moments it dissipated, forcing itself outward as it blew out the windows. Rin would have a fun time trying to explain that one to the neighbors in the morning.
For the moment though Saber paused as she gazed around the room, surveying the chaos of her entrance. Inside that time freeze on the hill, she felt trapped inside her own mind. Here in the more permanent world she could feel how heavy her new armor felt on her frame, yet at the same time she felt stronger than ever before. She paused, extending her hand to examine her dark purple gauntlet, but only for a moment. She pushed her thoughts to the side. More pressing matters demanded her attention.
Where was her Master? Had something gone wrong with the summoning ritual? ]
