Poor Shinji

A/N: If you know about Astolfo then this chapter is hilarious. Poor Shinji.

A certain blue-haired boy prowls the streets of Fuyuki city at night. The presence of one Shinji Matou is not foreign here, but the time of his presence is most certainly thus. At a normal time, during the day, he would be surrounded by a throng of girls, the Shinji fan club. But tonight his motives are much more sinister than a little flirting.

Shinji, after being cast aside by his grandfather, Zouken, plots his ****. Both unable to summon one of his own, and lacking the Book of False Attendant, he stalks the streets tonight in an effort to try to find a servant.

"Stupid Grandfather. I'll show YOU who's worthless, you sack of skin! Hurry up and die already so you can get out of my hair!" Shinji mumbles as he strolls around the quiet city night. "I'll get myself a servant! And then the Grail will be mine! And I certainly won't give it to HIM!" Shinji cackles and continues his walk. He's clearly besides himself as he bumps into Astolfo.

"Hi there! Aren't you a cutie! But you're nowhere near as cute as I, Astolfo!" Astolfo says, turning towards Shinji. The blue haired Shinji immediately turns on the charm. "But of course, it's only natural that you'd want to be seen with the one and only Shinji Matou. A pleasure to meet you."

The sleaze eminating from Shinji is apparent. But if it's this same sort of charm that's gotten him the throng of girls at the high school, so it should work on the much more attractive woman who stands before him.

Astolfo grins. It's going to be fun messing around with this boy for a while, especially with Illya safe and sound for now. "Thanks", Astolfo says, while idly twirling a pink lock of hair around a finger with a grin.

"What's a lovely lady like you doing out here all by herself so late at night, hmm? At least allow me to be your escort. Perhaps we may even find a tea parlor that is still open. My treat." Shinji smiles, leering at Astolfo.

Astolfo considers it for a moment by placing the same finger that was twirling hair close to lips. Tea did sound good after all, so Astolfo decides to keep playing along with the poor boy. "I, Astolfo, can take care of myself! But that tea does sound nice. So lead on, Shinji Matou!"

It is with these words that Shinji sets his fate to be tormented tonight and his advances rejected by Astolfo. Rumor had it that some people heard a certain blue-haired boy screaming and running away from a what appeared to be a pink-haired girl.
