Fortunately and unfortunately the small city of Fuyuki didn't have its own airport yet. Maybe in the future but not at that moment. It was fortunate however that the family didn't mind spending a couple more hours together. It helped the fact that the driver was Liz instead of Iri.

The journey was peaceful, they were in a simpler standard van that fitted the whole family and the luggage. On the front were the maids with the rest of the family in the back, Iri wanting to spend more time with her children. It was also time for her to go, while Kiritsugu and the others were the boots on the ground from their operation she was the accountant.

Unfortunately the mercenary couldn't go back to Japan yet, the situation in North America got solved and he returned to Earth safe and sound but once he heard what happened to Shirou he decided to make plans to help him instead.

With the protection of the scion of the Gremory house they had time and the father wanted to help his son settle in the moonlit world in the best ways he could. Training, studies and a target. That was what he needed but he also needs to set up the best conditions possible not to mention lead a 'security' organization.

It would take time but he would do it for his son. Iri didn't disagree with her husband and rushing to challenge the problem is not a good idea, Shirou is not Illia and they needed another approach for him.

Even now while she talks with her children she can't help but think 'He is too kind for this world'. How she wished that her children lived normal lives.

Shirou himself was also enjoying the ride, trying to not think that once it was done he would be without his sister, his mother and one of the women who raised him for the first time in his life.

He was used to having his mother traveling with his dad but this was the first time his sister and Sella were going to be away from a long stretch of time, even when his father was training his sister they were out for just a couple of weeks at a time.

Now he is going to be home alone with just Liz, a prospect that wasn't unpleasant but still strange.

Shirou literally can't remember his life before his family and now most of it is away from home while he stays. It made him wonder, 'what I will do?' Not only in that moment but in the future too.

The redhead was not one to think much about the future but for the first time he did and he had no answer. That didn't stop him from enjoying this last ride.

Sella was at her sister's side watching the interactions between her mistress and her children, her eyes ignoring the road completely both trusting in her sister's skill and concern.

'Will the house still be there once I got back?' She didn't know how long they would stay in London, the times of study in the Clocktower were actually defined by their own students. One can stay, join a departament and then leave without trouble but they also can stay in more permanent bases to gather resources, prestige and money.

The older maid was 100% sure Illya didn't care about any of that, the nobility of the Clocktower was also some of the worst people on the planet.

Sabotage, backstabbing, murder, inhuman experiments, there is a reason why Kiritsugu insisted that Illya was prepared to go to such place and that Sella is acompaning her. There are even plans for fast extraction and agents that worked for him in positions to help or call in case something happens with them.

The emergency protocols were so many that the markets she would buy groceries and her recommendations for where Illya could spend some time and relax were already defined.

Emiya Kiritsugu made a living of 'taking care' of magus and he was taking every precaution in case Illya's name was discovered.

Sella won't be serving Emiya Illya in the exterior, she will be serving the last survivor of a dead family, Illyasviel Von Einzebern.

'Today is going to be Shirou cooking dinner', Liz was already thinking about what she is going to eat later. That was an attempt from her to avoid thinking on unpleasant topics.

Shirou was not the only one that was going to be separated from their sibling for a long period of time. Looking at Sella from the corner of her eye the short haired sibling had to hold herself back from breaking the steering wheel with her superhuman strength.

She takes a discrete deep breath and focuses on the road.

When homunculi are made they are not that different from a character in a video game, they have attribute points that need to be distributed to exercise their primary function.

Sella was made to be an assistant, she is capable of doing complex tasks with ease, has a great degree of knowledge in both simple tasks or support spells that include the complicated healing and the creation of boundary fields. She also was great in management and a skillful cook.

Leysritt was the opposite of her sister and she knew it, where the elder was made to be a multifunctional and skilled helper Liz was the muscle. She can lift a small car over her head and her pet halberd, the equivalent of a love child in between an axe and a spear, was heavy enough that if it fell to the ground it would leave a print.

The short haired woman on the car never envied her sibling and she knew for a fact that Sella never envied her either. They are both the two sides of the same coin, the brains and the brawl, she hits and Sella keeps her going.

But now they are being split for the first time since Irisviel had saved them. They were going to be far away from each other, Sella in England and her in Japan.
