Shirou & Servants
Gillian hesitated, shaking her head slowly. "I... I am fine. I just had a bad day yesterday. It's... nothing important."
Both Lancelot and Rider looked at one another, raising an eyebrow, with an expression silently screaming 'yeah, right'.
Soon enough, Mata and Vlad came back, said goodbye to the gang and headed out, the former wearing a pretty sky blue sundress with white flats, and the latter having a white turtleneck sweater on with black shin-length skirt and 4-inches black pumps.

Next thing Gilian knew Nero grabbed her wrist and dragged her to a more private room.
----------------
You both head out into town.

"H-Hey!... I am fine, I said!" the blonde woman let out, nonetheless following until they were alone in a guest room, the door closed. "...Tch. You just won't leave well enough alone, will you?", she said, sitting on the bed.
Shirou & Servants
"Um... should we... like, say or do something?" Rider asked, as the two left to the room in question.
Shirou shook his head. "...Nah. Gil will listen to someone whom she considers an equal or close enough, which means either me or another King or Emperor or ruler of some kind. Plus, I know she has a soft spot for Nero, so chances are that Nero can talk some sense into her. Let's just leave them be."
Lancer & Assassin
"This is fun", Mata said enthusiastically. "We never really go out together, you and I."
"...I am not really a 'go out for fun' sort of person", Vlad explained. "I'm most at ease when I'm in the heat of battle, fighting for my life and my beliefs."
"...Fighting is not everything, you know?" the brunette said gleefully. "...There can be pleasure in duty, if you look hard enough. Come on... let's gather information and have fun doing it", heading out downtown, where they were quite likely to hear a lot of people talking... and have fun, as well.

Nero sat down taking the King of Heroes' feet in her lap and slowly massaging them. "Now then, please the Great Nero what is troubling you so that I may ease all your worries away."
---------------
You walk though town hearing all sorts of rumors.
People with strange powers showing up in and around the city, people using cell phones to summon superhumans to fight for them.

Gillian
"Now then, please the Great Nero what is troubling you so that I may ease all your worries away."
Gil nodded silently, before looking at her and giving up.
"...Fine, but only because it's you", she said on a bit softer tone, enjoying the foot massage. "...I am simply... troubled, by how easily I was defeated yesterday. The enemy sneaked up on us and I didn't sense anything, hear anything or see anything until the Nobunaga Oda attacked us. Now, I'm aware that some Servants are indeed better in stealth than I am at spotting them, but even then, I have never been defeated in a single attack... not by anyone... until yesterday. I couldn't even react... No one ever defeats me like this, and yet, she could have killed me there and then had she wished to! I'm the Servant Killer, the King of Heroes, for crying out loud!"
She bit her lower lip.
"...This is horrifyingly humiliating! ...I feel broken, and ashamed, and weakened."
Lancer & Assassin
"...Odd... there is a LOT more unusual rumors going on and about than I expected", Mata said, looking around with curiosity. "We barely had to ask around."
"You're right... something's up, it's obvious. It's like many people are talking about it, too", Vlad agreed.
The brunette shrugged. "Oh well... let us learn everything we can before we return." She walked up to a nearby large groups of passerbys along with Vlad. "...My, what a pleasant day, don't you think so?" she said on a friendly tone, letting her pheromones do the rest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mata will put 7 stones in her Pheromones (Atk VS Durability to cause lust or love towards Mata Hari) to attract the attention of a large group of passerbys to have them feel interested in her, and have her want to discuss with her.

"I see... That is indeed troublesome." She said leaning down. "I can understand your feelings of humiliation." She said punctuating each work with a kiss on your feet and calves. "But even still. You are the King of Heroes, when you encounter a foe capable of harming you in such a way you should not sulk and think so low of yourself. You should be exited, and eager to match your power against a foe of equal power on even terms."
-----------------
"Why yes Miss, it is." Several of the people say completely awestruck with you.

"S-She was not nearly equal in power to me, she simply attacked by surprise with a weapon stronger against divine beings... I curse my half-divine heritage. This is my mother's fault, again", she grumbled, unable to get fully angry because of Nero's affections. "...Hnnh.♥ B-But you are correct... I shouldn't let this appalling defeat put me down so much... Instead, I should plan my inevitable victory when we next meet, she and I", she admitted.
The gorgeous blonde then smirked.
"I imagine a display of my appreciation would be in order... Roman Emperor Nero?" she asked, playfully caressing her with her toes.
Lancer & Assassin
Even Lancer was left speechless and her heart beating incredibly fast in her chest as Mata Hari displayed her simple yet formidably effective seduction power. She was astonished by how strong a reaction the girl left in people when she really wanted to. Gritting her teeth, she attempted to focus and not simply stare at her in awe.
Meanwhile, Mata continued:
"...Such a shame that such a peaceful day would be troubled by so many strange events. I heard... unusual things about people with odd powers, and even tales of individuals using cellphones to summon superhumans to do battle for them! Can you believe it?" she said seemingly casually, leading the conversation immediately on said subject. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lancer puts 6 into Intelligence to stay focus despite Mata's pheromones affecting her a bit.
Assassin uses 8 stones (Ef.) into Information Gathering (Atk VS Intelligence; success means the victim will tell Mata Hari whatever she asks just because they are so enthralled with her beauty and pheromones, regardless of how secret or sensitive the information she askes for is. Additionally, it functions as an Atk VS Int+Mental Defense which, if successful, will make the victim forget all about telling her anything of the sort, only remembering how beautiful and kind she is), to direct the conversation to people with powers and cellphone summoning.

"Perhaps you should." She said with a smile standing before you in her dress minus the boots.
-----------
"I know someone... There's this guy in the Apartment next to mine... Hideosaki Hanamaka he obtained this power to use his phone to summon some guy to fight for him. wouldn't say his name, just hit a button and the guy was by his side. big dark skinned guy with tattooed arms, and an X shaped scar on his face." a woman says.
Similar tales are heard of other people both Japanese and Foreign with such servants... Like a Frenchman with no weapon but still slices things, or an old man dressed in ninja/samurai like armor wielding a staff.

"Perhaps you should."
"Then how about joining me here?" the golden-haired beauty suggested, making room for her in the bed. "The very best thanks are felt, not spoken", she said, softly. "Please allow me to let you feel... how grateful I am.♥"
Lancer & Assassin
"I know someone... There's this guy in the Apartment next to mine... Hideosaki Hanamaka he obtained this power to use his phone to summon some guy to fight for him. wouldn't say his name, just hit a button and the guy was by his side. big dark skinned guy with tattooed arms, and an X shaped scar on his face."
Mata Hari listened to this and the other tales, pretending to be shocked.
"...That is a bit scary... Did your neighbor say how he obained that power?" she asked. "What do those people use those abilities for?" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lancer puts 6 into Intelligence to stay focus despite Mata's pheromones affecting her a bit.
Assassin uses 8 stones (Ef.) into Information Gathering to ask a bit more details.

"Indeed." Nero said eagerly joining her.
---------------
"He just said he had an email on his phone, and when he downloaded an update the phone summoned him." He said. "Said it was part of some competition for something called the Cubic Grail."

Gilgamesh kissed her lovingly as she caressed her feet with her own, holding her close.
Lancer & Assassin
"That is worrysome... I hope nobody gets hurt. Please... be careful, okay?" Mata said gently. She then turned to Lancer: "Let's go home... I think we should warn our dear sisters."
"...Yeah... our sisters", Vlad said, smiling, as both girls waved goodbye to the strangers and began heading back home.

You get a quarter-way back to the house when the heel of Lancer's shoe snaps off under her.

"...Yikes!" she let out, falling to her knees. "Bloody hell... those stupid heels keep breaking off so stupidly easily!" Vlad growled, slowly getting back on her feet, and kicking off her shoes.
"You okay?" Mata asked, concerned.
"...Y-Yes, of course. This is nothing. Come on, let's get back."

Mata then notices something rolling away from the broken heel.
a shiny ball bearing.
Just then an object flies across Vlad's neck cutting into her jugular! (OOC: Lose 2w.) a simple playing card flutters to the ground stained with her blood.
"Hehehe, Bullseye!" a bald man with a target tattoo on his head says running off into an allyway.

Lancer & Assassin
"Lancer!" Mata Hari let out, surprised.
"...Urrk... ggh..." the silverette let out with difficulty, her hand holding her throat as blood escaped through her grasp, as she glared back at the man who had attacked her. "...S... S-Son of a bi-"
She coughed, grimacing with pain... before reaching for the nearest heavy object she could find, and throwing it at him!
At the same time, Mata Hari vanished into thin air... attempting to sneak behind the man using the distraction, and her power to render herself invisible! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lancer Start H: 5/6 P.L: 0/3 E: 30/30 P.L: 0/0
11 stones into Ranged Combat to grab the nearest large and heavy object in her reach, and throw it at the attacker!
6 stones into Acrobatics all into defense.
