His performance had been flawless. His painstaking perseverance had produced the perfect product. But no one has ever spoken of what might transpire once the last light had dimmed, for to them, the stage is fleeting. For one such as Emiya Shirou, who has acted for far too long, even the path back offstage had faded into dust, buried by the sands of time.

Having somehow been reincarnated into a new life, yet retaining his memories of the old, a simple bowman begins his journey in these corrupted lands. And the world he has been reborn in truly was in need of a hero to sweep away all the rampant corruption.

The Hero Summoning ritual of Melromarc did its job brilliantly. However, instead of summoning a gamer who likes playing with swords, it summoned a certain hero with a hill of swords. WARNING: BIG SPOILER FOR FATE/GRAND ORDER INSIDE. Now available on AO3, too.

Left in a new world with hardly an explanation for his arrival, the only thing left for him to do was to keep walking forward one step at a time for those watching behind him.

A collection of lemon one-shots pairing Emiya with the female Servants of Chaldea.

An anomaly has opened up, and Shirou just happened to be there.

In the middle of a possible Stray hunt, Rias Gremory accidentally ended up with three marks on her hand due to activating an unknown spell. After researching them, she discovered their use of calling forth a possible familiar. But what came from the summoning was a familiar that not even a Devil could have ever imagined.

An unlikely Master summons a Servant beyond the present world's understanding, starting a series of events that would become the basis of a legend. (-A reimagining of the original Birth of a Legend)

After sacrificing his arm before his demise, Emiya fulfilled his desires to never let the past repeat itself. The man expected to return in a land surrounded by swords, waiting for his next orders, forever alone and broken. Unbeknownst to him, fate had other plans for the Counter Guardian... one that came to fulfill his long desired wish.

In Archer's last moment during the Holy Grail War, he made a promise to Rin, to try his best. Not knowing if he was even capable of keeping up such a promise, while in the service of the Counter Force. Now sent to a new world to eliminate its rising threat, how will our favourite cynical hero deal with the people of this strange yet dark world?

With the last of the dragons dead, there was nothing that should stand in the way of the lions' rule. Wolves and deer were nothing to their roar. Too bad that that night many years ago a certain archer was born between blood and fire in the tower of joy. For the Counter Guardian Emiya this was just a holiday, compared to the war of the grail the game of thrones was almost boring.

OWX-01 Slipstream - an experimental, teleporting fighter jet commissioned by Overwatch. On the day of its inaugural flight, Lena Oxton, pilot of the Slipstream, was caught in an accident and disappeared.

Guardian, Protector, Hero, and perhaps something more, that was what he had always meant to her, but to others he was simply known as the Huntsman of Red, Remnant's final hope.

Emiya Kiritsugu was happy living the rest of his short days. He had put his past behind him... until he began to dream of futures that had yet to be. Let it be known that the Magus Killer was not dangerous simply because he was dying and had no plans to fight. Slowly being put on Royal Road over time.

A certain technician is invited as a member of Chaldea's staff until a chance discovery changes everything and lands him into an ordeal with the fate of Humanity itself at risk.

When your purpose has been fulfilled, what is left for you to do? Shirou's still figuring that out. And it looks like he will be doing that in a strange new place. Remake of Fire Still Burns but much better.

It was supposed to be a simple experiment, one which Rin had done many times in the past. Yet here he was... What went wrong? Why was he faced with an endless horde of monsters? And was that a magical girl? Shirou hoped his day wouldn't get any worse.

Shirou knew his one goal in life was impossible. He knew he could not reach his love without help, without its help, but to have its help meant he would still never reach his love. So as he lay there dying he thought of his love, her green eyes, her blond hair, and her wonderful smile. luckily for him, someone else was watching him and thought that they looked quite nice together.

When a Master and Servant grow close, they may experience glimpses of each other's pasts in their sleep—a phenomenon known as the Dream Cycle. It stands to reason that when multiple Servants are bound to the same Master, they might witness each other's memories instead. Even those who would rather keep their past buried.

Willow Schnee was in danger, being chased and surrounded by those who would wish to harm her. She cried out for a savior. To her surprise, a hero answered. A man with a single red streak in his white hair emerged and dealt with her attackers, appearing like a knight from a storybook. He was her hero, her knight, and the man who would change her fate for the better.

Morgan thinks her marriage is falling apart until she discovers her husband's hidden fantasies by looking through his browser history and reading his chat with a certain 'Nomiya'. If this is what her husband desires, then as a good wife she will follow his will. And definitely not because she thinks it's hot. Meanwhile, Ritsuka himself asks a certain Red Archer for a favor.

In a world where the Last Hero's birthbed was the place of his death, the eventual fate of the world lies on a razor's edge. How will Orario, and the rest of the world, fare without the Argonaut? Luckily, there's another who is all too happy to help this possibly doomed world. (FateRoute!Shirou in Danmachi)

Karasuba never had any intention of finding her "Destined One"; to spill blood, any Ashikabi would do. With that said, she was never supposed to meet a genocidal maniac as sick and twisted as Emiya Shirou. Maybe romance wasn't dead after all.

Uno quien no conoce del trato, otro quien carece de tacto y el tercero con una idea sobre que es un acto. Los tres puestos en una obra para ayudarse entre sí a pesar del odio tan arraigado que hay desde raíz. Se agrieta la máscara junto con el bosque el cual se consume al igual que las espadas al aire, terminando en óxido dando su peor parte.

Counter Guardians are timeless beings that are summoned when the world faces a great catastrophe. So why did a certain one get placed in the body of his past self well before an oncoming disaster? This is a story of a broken man's second chance at life. Will it end in regret or will he finally get a happy ending? If only his memories of the past weren't so fragmented...

Cuando Jeanne Alter y Emiya se detuvieron en una situación fuera de su control, uno agradeció mientras que el otro se enojó. Al abrir los ojos y encontrarse a sí mismos una vez más, no pensaron lo raro que podía ser el mundo después del final. O al menos creyeron que eso era el final... Emiya no lograba entender a esos héroes y Jeanne solo sabía meterse en problemas. (Emiya&Jalter)

Mordred meets a certain redhead that saved her from a tyrant trying to burn Camelot. OR, what happens when "Shirou Emiya" gets dropped in 6th century Britannia. I edited Chapter 21 and changed its name: Character Sheet. I restructured some chaps to make it easier to read.

Counter Guardian Emiya is a man of many regrets. Among them, the fact that he wasn't able to save his Saber when he was a boy continues to haunt him to the end of days. Now, however, a chance has mysteriously appeared to change that result. And being the practical man he is, he will not hesitate to seize it. But still... why in Alaya's name is Artoria his new Master in this world?

Sent away by Samuel Hayden, the Doom Slayer arrives on Earth in a different time with no memories. But that quickly changes one night in a town called Kuoh. Restored and with a new power, how will the Doom Slayer react to the supernatural and these new beings called Devils? How will the supernatural react to him? One thing is for sure: He'll rip and tear anyone that gets in his way

Once upon a time there was man whose only wish was to see other people smile. However this wish was never granted and he was thrown into a hell of his own making. Strangled by his regrets, the man began to curse his own existence. He is given a chance to erase his tale, however the people around him have other ideas. "Don't give up yet hero. You still have people to save."

Diversión y llanto, ambos juntos, una reía y el otro callaba. Una opera que ambos interpretaban ante un público inexistente, una vida que no se vivía y una vida que quería ser vivida. ¿Finalizar todo por una oportunidad? Un contrato y una promesa, una maldición como una bendición, dando paso a aquella risa unísona que resonó para el miedo del mundo. Emiya x ProtoMerlin.

Kukulkan contemplated what was in front of her. The life she wanted was present, but her desire was fervently falling into madness. Who was that person she longed for so much? Looking to his side she could only smile and cry, not wanting to go through with the current reality. And her insane desire.

Summoned as a Berserker in the Fourth Holy Grail War by a desperate man, armed with only his meagre skills and wit, Emiya sought to bring his master the salvation they both sought. Unfortunately though, things get out of control pretty fast, well, not like he cared anyway. It's just another Friday.

A drunken night leads to Shirou winding up in a hotel bed with the last person he’d ever expect to be in bed with, he wonders exactly what he has gotten himself into. Find out next on this thrilling story of Night of the Blue Bloods!

"With swords that aren't yours, with skills that aren't yours, for dreams that aren't yours. Your entire existence is a lie!" - "Then I'll show you that even fake dreams can become reality." A different choice, a different path, a different FATE. Shirou/Multi

Una propuesta y un ideal, quien estaba ahí en el presente para dar la felicidad y el entendimiento que deseaba escuchar. incluso si era egoísta, le gustaría saber del final para ambos y la paz que podían alcanzar.

Shirou dies, and the corrupted grail in his soul grants an incomplete wish, reincarnating Shirou's soul. An old soul meets a new world, tragedy strikes, the sleeping UBW awakens, and memories resurface. Shirou embarks on an adventure, seeking what he has lost.

The world had abandoned her. Humanity had betrayed her. The Gods were laughing from their high seats. She had not been broken. Not yet. As long as her hero stood by her side.

Emiya Shirou pidió el deseo de que su hermana fuera feliz en otro mundo, Emiya Miyu pidió exactamente los mismo, lastimosamente no se volverían a encontrar y esa seria la única cosa que Emiya Shirou le cause tristeza en su mundo "ideal" pero las Clase Card son un recuerdo que debe recuperar a toda costa y ni siquiera los dioses le impedirán recuperarlas.

Un contrato simple, una ida de un solo camino, su objetivo alineado...solo ¿Qué pasaba con ese sujeto y como terminó en ese lugar también? Echidna no pensó mucho en su situación una vez que obtuvo lo que quería, pero no siempre el contrato es lo que dice ser.

Desconocido para ella y para todos, cuando su mente pasó a mostrarle cosas que no sabía y que no existían, la carta estaba servida por la nada, a la espera del momento adecuado de acudir para terminar con el calvario de ambos, a veces el destino podría ser una perra.

Why should someone fight, if his ideals have betrayed him, there is no-one to fight for and only despair wait him? EMIYA certainly wouldn't, and his story has finally come to an end. Or is it?

"Artoria, the moment you were born as a magus, you are no longer a "normal" person..." That's something Artoria grew up with. A "normal" life is something people like her [magus] can't not have. She knows and she has accepted... But seriously, "Incineration of Humanity"? Isn't that just overboard! Give her a damn break!

Un destino elegido a pesar de poder elegirlo, una opción al alcance de tomarla pero sin las fuerzas suficientes para modificarlo. ¿Por qué velar de lo establecido cuando solo necesitaba actuar? Un lienzo y una sola palabra, la indecisión de la tinta y las ganas de conocer aquel significado dado por la luz guía que no podía llegar a moverse por sí misma. Emiya x Murasaki Shikibu.

Emiya Shirou died saving the world. The last thing he expected was to wake up in a reality where his father was alive and he was not supposed to know about magic. But darkness still encroaches upon Fuyuki and his family. Armed only with his prior knowledge and a power that may kill him, Shirou must master his own magecraft and save those he loves before they are lost forever.

After Emiya loses to Francis Drake in a drinking contest, she takes him back to her cabin aboard the Golden Hind.

As Emiya enters his room, he finds none other then Saint Martha waiting for him.

Having never been kissed before, Jeanne turns to Emiya for a little guidance.

Over and over and over again. How many times has he done this? Shirou couldn't tell anymore. But still, he had chosen this path. Then he will walk with it until the end. Or so he thought. Now, under the night sky, Shirou prayed that this time he closed his eyes, he wouldn't wake up again.

¿Qué define a un héroe? Muchos te dirán que lo define la valentía, el esfuerzo, la inteligencia, la fuerza e incluso su voluntad. Pero lo que nadie te dice de esa definición es el cómo termina el camino del héroe, tragedia. En eso termina. Así que cuando dos héroes trágicos terminan en un mundo de tragedia por error, tendrán que demostrar por qué fueron llamados héroes alguna vez

Al momento en que alguien puede estar riendo es donde otro puede llorando. Ambos iguales de cerca como iguales de lejos. Quien clama perdón es quien también desea ser culpado. Incluso así, paz es lo único que ambos más añoran al final.

La esposa perfecta, el mayor anhelo que tenía Tamamo era el poder convertirse en la esposa perfecta, fue entonces que después de conocer a Emiya entendió algo, que si quería ser la esposa perfecta… debía aprender a ser la esposa perfecta en sí misma, claro, nunca se lo diría a Emiya en su cara, pero le era una persona agradable, porque al final, solo quería un deseo.

Kukulkan contempló lo que tenía en frente. La vida que quiso estaba presente, más su deseo caía en la locura fervientemente. ¿Quién era esa persona que tanto anhelaban? Mirando a su lado solo pudo sonreír y llorar al no querer llegar a la realidad actual. Y a su deseo demencial.

Threat to Humanity detected. Counter Force Intervention now implementing– failed. Spiritron Stability impossible. Servant Summoning impossible. Searching for viable vessel alternatives– found. Newly augmented Spirit Origin established. Counter Guardian EMIYA summoned. Class BERSERKER. Mission Objective: Slay all the Demons!

It was only a step away. For the birth of the All World's Evil and it's imminent doom by the Hero of Justice. A simple thought can change several fates, especially when the Hero of Justice takes the Holy Lance to end the evil than the Holy Sword. Shirou was fine, but getting flung back in space time inside a tower of light isn't fun.

As Shirou was dragged into the hole left behind by the grail, the grail itself reaches out to him, acknowledging him as the true winner of the Fifth Holy Grail war. His wish of becoming a Hero is closer to being granted than he originally thought. Now in a world where being a Hero is a feasible profession, will he become a true ally of justice?

Shirou and Miyu Emiya, upon the grails granting of Shirō's wish for Miyu's happiness, are taken to Jump City. Sadly, even happiness isn't easily obtained and for his sister's happiness, well, Shirō's willing to do just about anything.

For Kyoko Sakura finding a strange pendant and the summoning of a Servant in Red and Black was all that was needed to completely change her world. Perhaps through this man she will one day find salvation. A timeline in which Kyoko summons Archer.

Deseo y castigo. Algo que quisieran o que negaran, algo que quisieran, pero no podían. Lo que causa la curiosidad es lo que genera la paz, pero la paz puede ser superficial al igual que la felicidad. ¿Cómo pueden encontrar algo de paz y felicidad verdaderos? Maldecir y rezar, querer y lastimar. Odiar y amar.

"Servant Caster, I hereby answer your summons." The Counter Guardian stared into the the eyes of his master. A girl that should be no older than 17 years old. She seems familiar, what was her name again? It's on the edge of his tongue. Ah, Rin... That was her name... But wait, was her hair always Purple?

After a brush with death, young Shirou Emiya ends up in the realm of the fae. With his body changed by magic, and the way home uncertain, he will struggle to find a path back. But after centuries spent in Faery, cut off from the rest of humanity, can what emerges still be called a human? Fairy!Shirou AU.

Death and corruption. A rotting Empire, and a man who would sit at the heart of a revolution. In a dark world of constant death and deceit, what place will a man whose only wish was to save others be able to carve out for himself?

Cornered by Lancer, in desperation, Emiya Shirou ends up summoning Archer EMIYA. And naturally, upon seeing his chance, EMIYA takes full advantage to kill his younger self over and over again, until he's satisfied. However, upon seeing the futility of his attempts, he decides to stop for the moment. At least, until the proper chance to kill Shirou for good finally presents itself.

A new Singularity has been detected, where it is possible to watch fragments of real or fictional events as long as a catalyst is used. Cú Chulainn gets excited, uses himself to watch the war where he and the others 6 servants fought (UBW route), but when the fragment starts they quickly realize that maybe is not the right route...

(Cyberpunk Edgerunners fic) The fact that David could use the Sandevistan that he'd found in his mum's EMT jacket at all was a miracle. The fact that it seemed to accept him as well, and give him access to its secret systems... well that just proved to him that he was built differently. (Gamer!David - Cyberpunk 2077 System)

Shirou Emiya is dead. His love ones though he could finally rest. Oh how wrong they were, His soul was swept away by unknown forces, returning him to his true origins, to a certain blacksmith god.(No Machine gods AU)(First fic)(no harem)

Melina needs to get to the Erdtree and accomplish her goal of restoring life to the world, and for that she needs a Tarnished to seek the throne. Unfortunately, the one she found seemed to have no such ambition. "What do you mean NO?"

¿Qué tan jodida debe de estar tu vida cómo para despertar en el cuerpo de la persona que más odias? No solo tienes que volver a ver esa molesta cara que denota inocencia sino que tienes que vivir un sueño estúpido una vez más.

Counter Guardian EMIYA had no wish for the grail, he did however have a single desire. Kill his foolish younger self. He finally finds himself summoned in Fuyuki. Only there's one small problem. This isn't his Fuyuki and what's with these 'Magical Girls?

Una competencia. Nadie esperó que las cosas fuesen así, mucho menos los participantes, todos estaban preparados para una cosa, pero el resultado final… ¿Qué era todo lo que había pasado?

31 year old Emiya Shirou lived a good life. He made a lot of friends and saved a lot of people. Despite his strength, however, he couldn't predict the Incineration of Humanity. Now reincarnated into a world of swords, how will the man with a body of blades fare? Isekai!Shirou

El tiempo y el pasar de la vida, la forma en la que esta continua y como algunas cosas nunca cambia, per por primera vez en la interminable sombra proyectada, la luz se asoma. Un ángel o un demonio, no importaba ahora como la viera, un humano o un engendro, no importaba de donde era. Solo había una cosa que buscar. Paz. (Historia sobre Emiya y su vivencia con Alaya)

Rin might have convinced him to take the gig, but Shirou had a funny feeling that this wasn't what she had in mind at all. If being a master of Chaldea was dangerous before, then now it was an outright suicide mission. Investigating all of these singularities on his own won't be very fun.

With Ainsworth defeated, his world came to an end, and his oath to his sister was fulfilled. Emiya Shirou welcomed his happy ending. However, fate had other plans for him, and he awoke in a dungeon. The beginning of a new story, as he saved a blonde girl named Aiz Wallenstein.

Esta mal dar las cosas por sentado. Y no hay manera de que pueda relajarse, mucho menos cuando es él de quien se está tratando.

A dead world, a dead species, and a group of beings asking why they were made. Their answer came back in the form of one of their so-called creators, too bad the world gave them the one human who was too much like them.

Al fin podría tener una vida libre y salir de ese infierno, pero para eso debe de realizar una última misión de la que no tiene idea en qué consiste. Novela: The second coming of gluttony.

Scáthach sintió curiosidad. Aquella persona ante ella un mentiroso. Skadi sintió curiosidad porque su "otro yo" estaba tan interesada en aquel hombre Y Emiya solo no comprendía nada de esas dos mujeres y sus acciones sin sentido. ¿Por qué los seres divinos tenían que ser tan complicados?

A different outcome in the clash of a King and a Faker. Is it a curse or fate that Emiya Shirou was brought to a world where humanity needs saving?

Él era una máquina de matar, un hombre que carecía de convicción suficiente para seguir avanzando. Sin embargo, cuando terminas en una época fuera de lugar, la anomalía se hace presente por obligación y no por placer.

Shirou Emiya has long since carried on with his ambition, with his search. So when he dies and finds himself reborn in another world, a world where the gods walk the earth and monsters seek to devour any who they come across their path he finds his own course unchanged, for the most part. His search may yet be over. Written for Alex Kellar's contest.

Nameless Archer reincarnated as a sword.

Despite repeated denials, Ciel Phantomhive isn't entirely convinced his new servant wasn't the devil in disguise. In his defense, Archer thinks much of the same of his new employer. Stuck with a brat he thinks of strangling on a daily basis on a job with no end in sight, Archer is one hell of a butler. As if he wasn't overworked enough.

De verdad no esperaba nada de la vida, simplemente resignado pero aceptando sus acciones, pero de la nada fue arrojado a través del tiempo para ver una vez más a uno de los reyes más grandes de la historia y aquella mujer que profeso a amar.

Unaware of loss, nor aware of gain. That phrase defined him since the day of his birth. However, the words of a certain magus allowed him to finally break free from the shackles that made him Shirou Emiya. The counterforce would not acknowledge the contract of a man who didn't exist, so where else could he go, other than back to the beginning?

One's fate is not decided by chance, but by choice. A hero will rise from the desolate sands of Hueco Mundo.

Shirou Emiya in Oath Under The Snow got transported to the world of DC, and end up on Amazon Island. See how his luck played out with these female warriors and the Justice League.

Y si después de todo ese esfuerzo por lograr un mundo mejor lo único que esperaba era terminar. Solo para verse envuelto en un nuevo mundo. Alternativa: The beginning after of the end.

On the eve of the Fourth Holy Grail War, a different Caster is summoned in a different house with a different family's blood. And so, the Fate of the Holy Grail War will forever be changed. This is the story of those seeking redemption for their sins.

Shirou Emiya had not been ready for the Clocktower. He lacked roughly seven years of the background required to do anything of value there, and the attempt to teach him was cutting into Rin's own research time. So Zelretch decided to send the boy away to another world to complete his 'magical primary school education'. Not like he has the power to say no.

What if Shirou was found by Kirei instead of Kiritsugu during the fire. This is is the story of Shirou Kotomine, executer and king. Shirou x Fem Gilgamesh/Harem.

A boy who could be a hero takes up a sword. A girl who hates her face wields a spear. In this familiar city, tied so deeply to the Holy Grail, the hunt for the Class Cards begins. What will they find, in between faces both familiar and new? Will they find horror, hatred, betrayal? Or will they find that which they both pursue – purposes of their own? Cross-posted from Spacebattles.

This isn't the story of a boy who dreamed of becoming a hero of justice. That's someone else's story. This is the story of a boy who simply wished to protect his family and loved ones... but it came at a heavy price... one that I later came to regret. Everything changed when I accepted that offer... and shouted those two words.

A timeline deviated from Proper Human History to the point even ALAYA nor Gaia can correct it nor delete it was discovered. Their best option? Send their best Counter Guardian of course! Meanwhile from his perspective, Counter Guardian EMIYA never expected to get a vacation with an order to "live", much less in another dimension.

It was a sad day for the Emiya family. Years of failures leaves Shirou helpless as he watches Ilya waste away. Yet, on Ilya's final days the impossible happens. Through the manipulations of a nutty vampire and a legendary book, the Emiya family is taken to another world. Branded a hero Shirou must save Ilya and this new world, or die trying. Typical Monday am I right?

Shirou Emiya just can't take a break even in the afterlife as he was reborn as Prince Zuko of the Fire Nation. He may not know what fate had in stored for him but whenever someone needed help, he would do what he can to do so.

Medusa's history is nothing more than prolonged torture for a petty goddess. History is also in flux, constantly shifting. The event that made Medusa the monstrous being of legend has a new start.

Shirou Emiya wanted to help people, and now he was in a world that desperately needed his help. Even if he didn't know how he got there, or when even since apparently he's been there for a long time. But let's try not to get too hung up on that, there's people to save, diseases to somehow stop, and a girl he's choosing to try to save, even if everyone in the world says he shouldn't

Vivir, sentir y disfrutar, todo fue raro, pero no se quejó porque no quería ver aquella sonrisa... ¿Quién venía? Un ángel rojo en alto con su aureola en llamas y un demonio en traje llegaron a su lado, el demonio le sonrió con cariño y fue todo, fue entonces que solo pudo aceptar a aquel demonio, el demonio que sonrió con sinceridad, porque al final, nunca nació como un humano.

A story idea that was a long time coming. Kiritsugu used Avalon as a catalyst, sure that it would summon the King of Knights. Who else would be so attached to the king's scabbard than Artoria herself? Well...There is another. Saber Emiya! Let's see how this goes.

The first Fate/Stay Night-Campione! crossover. A Heavens Feel Shirou finds that himself and Illya have been pulled into another world by a corrupted Grail. There his actions lead to him becoming the Eighth god killing Devil King. Now he has to deal with becoming someone who rules where he walks, even if he doesn't want to. That and trying to find a way back home.

He was a hopeless man, a man who would amount to a little more than a fool. Yet this man pursued an endless dream, a dream in which he could hold her again... (A Shirou medieval Britain Fic-beginning before Saber drew Caliburn)

By LaVacaMuh. He was a broken hero who never deserved anything, but when the fear of the unknown is present, the place or time doesn't matter, only the survival of the strongest matters. After all, tragedy is something that always existed, even in the age of the Gods.

It is said that Karma bites everyone in the ass. And what better way for Karmatic Vengeance against a guy who treats women like Dirt and made a Sex empire, then to have his Empire destroyed by the one who Hell fears. The Doom Slayer has Come. And there will be Justice!

A new weapons shop opens at downtown Vale run by a pair of mysterious siblings. As the embers of another great fire begin to spread across Vale, the fate of Remnant will be decided by a promise made in Winter.

A hero more rust than man let loose in a galaxy of myriad grays, walking the familiar steps and seeking answers at the end of that long, winding road. (Editing ch26)

He was an anomaly not meant to be in this world, yet fate would deem otherwise. After all, the fate of the world just may hang in the balance.

When I sold my soul to the Devil, I thought I was prepared for anything. I wasn't. I didn't expect him to be a her. Or dressed up as a magical girl carrying a pink wand tipped with a cheerful yellow star. Her being a prankster however didn't come as much of a surprise. You know, the Bible would have been a whole lot more interesting if they included stuff like this. Complete AU

Fighting Gilgamesh sucks. Getting tossed into a different dimension and being forced to save the entirety of humanity sucks even more. But what sucks the most: is the infuriating summoning system that won't give him S a b e r .

Gaia had, at last, slain Alaya but has yet to achieve victory. In its last cry to save humanity, Alaya spreads its dying embers all over the globe. Emiya Shirou is one such fragment, an incarnation to Alaya's expression of Blade. But as the fires of the Fourth War wash away this aspect of humanity, what remains of Shirou? (Contains some original lore, Predator!Shirou)

A conversation between two siblings while Kirei is grafting Archer's arm to Shirou.

He had sacrificed his soul to ensure they would remain. Eradicating his own existence to save those he loved, Emiya Shirou vanished from his world, forever. But the death of such a Champion does not go unnoticed, especially when there's a Goddess in the Astral Planes who knows everything. On the edge of the Horizon...

Emiya has found his answer, but for how long will he be able to remember it as he is plunged into hell again? This is the story of a man who returns having failed to end himself only to find something unexpected along the way—-—Ok, who am I kidding with the serious summary: UBW is full of hot anime babes, but you already knew that from the title, bro.

Mientras la magia exista, la guerra comenzará una vez más. Un espíritu heroico que no lucha por el santo grial si no por su deseo de salvar a una mujer. EmiyaXHarem

...was the third thing she searched on Google after she learned how to use internet without blowing it at age eight. The answer was appealing, but too bland./In which Tohsaka Rin is reincarnated as Nakiri Erina and she swears to burn his dad alive if it's allowed. Oh, by the way, Shirou is here too, somehow charmed everyone regardless age and gender as Yukihira Souma. Rin-centric.

Fate is a fickle thing. Time and time again, the Once and Future King has woken from her slumber to aid her country in its time of need. The World could not refuse her plea, her prophecy, but it has entered a never-ending loop as a result. Fed up, Alaya sends one of her dogs to fetch the key to a new Guardian. Fuses myth & FSN. Very Slow build. Cowritten with UniverseCreator.

Accepting what should have been an easy job, Emiya Shirou is pulled along into a catastrophe with repercussions echoing through time. Once again, he must surpass himself if he wishes to survive and save those pulled into this disaster.

EMIYA succeeded in his plan...He is reborn in a new universe with a new family for his efforts. With a chance to try again, can the former Counter Guardian become a true hero, like he always dreamed? However, there is more on the line than his ideals and humanity, for gods walk among men...and even darker things lurk in the shadows worse than any Heretic God. Harem! Rated T-M!

Honestly, Shirou was beginning to think that he should be used to this; being unwittingly selected to take part in brutal tournament that he had no idea existed until he found himself in the middle of it. Then again, second times the charm, right?

In the fire that ravaged Fuyuki city, it was not Emiya Kiritsugu who saved the life of a young Shirou, but the tainted grail itself.
