Fate/Zero: A Different Path

Chapter 7

The moment both side blurred forward, I made several mental calculations

Shirley is not in control of her impulse like in Canon, which makes her quite weakened. We could use this fact to our advantage

Nun girl threw the Keys forward. One in an overhead throw, the other two arced behind Shirley's back to pierce her shadow. 

The Apostle in turn deftly avoided them as she blurred across the room, batting all three of them away at an almost simultaneous pace with one hand

At the same moment, the other hand deflected three shots from my pistol Tokarev as I evaded her punch using [Time Alter: Double Accel]. Wind rippled from the aftermath

"- Not good" 

Unlike Canon Kiritugu I can use [Time Alter] without any drawback to my body. However, the method to which I did so require extensive Mana control and time to set up the Bounded Field. If either of those two fail, I am as good as dead

I grunted and regain my balance just in time to avoid a vicisiou double lash from her limb

Nun girl blocked a kick from Shirley. She was sent several paces back, leaving room for me to try and fill the gap in defense with a dash

[Time Alter: Square Accel]

[Reinforcement]

Four explosive kicks were thrown toward her, breaking the Apostle's guard enough for me to move within range. 

I did so while dodging her vain attempt at a counterattack, sending a bullet within that lapse in time and close the remaining distance while she was distracted

[Gradation Air]

A silver knife materialized in my hand as I slashed down. It was promptly blocked by Shirley, who hissed at the anti-evil property in them

What she did not expect me to do is for me to project a second knife in my other hand and slashed at her exposed side. 

Blood spurt into the air as the thing wearing Shirley's skin let out a pained scream

"Do you remember?" I mumbled furiously "It's the same knife Father Simon gave to you. Carietta. Shame I have to kill you with it, huh?"

She moved to strike me, but a flying Black Key intercepted her claws, enough to redirect it to graze my face. As the weapon bounced off midair, nun girl appeared behind her.

Before she could react, the young girl drove a fist into the Apostle's side

"Six Grand opening: Elbow Upthrust" 

I heard her muttered the name of the technique 

What followed next is a blur of movement

In one burst of motion, she grabbed the opponent's arm from below, carrying it up while also pressing her side close to Shirley's waist. Blocking Shirley's attempted kick with her knee, she twisted around

Then the attack happened in a flash as nun girl simultaneously delivered a blow to the heart with her left elbow, a palm to her solar plexus, and a fist to her abdomen, causing the other girl to coughed out blood before being carried upward

'Is it...a bastardized version of Bajiquan?'

With another step she slammed the Apostle into the ground, creating cracks on the floor from the impact

The Catholic girl pulled back, sacrament materializing in her hand. 

Four flashes of light followed as the Black Keys punched themselves through her limbs. Her opponent tried to scream, but she is quickly silenced with a blade through her throat
