[Archer was admittedly procrastinating on this. Like everyone else, he had his target as well. But, he picked to go after Rin's first, in fear of any possible backlash the town may have on her for not removing her target. He had the name of his - Minako Arisato - and he had to work on it. The question was

Locked and placeholder for now

[femtags]

Yes, I'm here.

[is this what she thinks it means?]

Minako, I presume. [He sighs. He never really had to discuss with his targets before he killed them as a Counter Guardian, so pardon him if he will be awkward about this...] I want us to meet on makeout point this evening to fight. To the death.

[So it was]

...Before we go, I have to ask. Why are you doing this? [Well that was a stupid question, she knew what the consequences were seeing pictures of her friends and not to mention one...no two of them were here as well]

...Have you thought about this?

locked

[fatesjanitor]

...I have no choice. It's simply something I have to do. [He tried. But, he can't go on like this. He can't stay human and protect three people at the same time. It's too tasking on him to be human and in these conditions.] No tricks, no one else coming. Just you and me and a battle.

[For a moment, Minako isn't sure what to do. This person was really considering a battle to the death. However, she made a promise to Minato and the persona crew and she promised others she'll be safe...]

I...I'll...have to refuse.

[fatesjanitor]

[...]

Sorry, but this isn't an optional thing.

[femtags]

I promised others that I would stay safe and...

....I have others to protect as well.

[He gritted his teeth from the other side of the line. Now what. He could try to find where she lived, but taking on even two people at once could end in his death easily. Only reason he won against Ephraim was a sneak attack, but that may not work over as well.]

...I only want to fight you. If you don't I'll get to you by force.

[femtags]

[She raised an eyebrow...this person wouldn't know where she lived right?]

Like what?

locked

[fatesjanitor]

Like attacking your entire house from the outside. I've already killed someone and I regained part of my original power back. A power that can wipe your entire home out in a moment's notice.

[His tone is no longer at pensive, but vicious instead.]

[He really was serious about this! What shocked her even more was how dedicated he was to protecting people he cared about to the point that he was willing to kill others.]

locked

[femtags]

[It was something to be admired that he was willing to go so far...

However, she doesn't know what Archer's power was. Even if death was temporary here, she can't afford to risk their lives. She wasn't sure should she call his bluff, he really was going to through with it.]

...I hope do you realize the consequences of this.

locked

[fatesjanitor]

I do. I've accepted them. So, give me an honest fight. We both have people to protect and the winner will gain more power to do so. That is all there is to it.

locked

[femtags]

...

Very well but promise me one thing. Whatever your power is...you won't use them for this battle. It wouldn't be fair for me if you want an honest fight.

locked

[fatesjanitor]

I won't.

[An easy promise to keep, seeing as he doesn't actually have that power yet.]

We can meet at Makeout Point, as the sun begins to set. It's the large area of cliffs that overlook the town's edge. No one should disturb us up there.

[femtags]

I hope that you keep your word.

[She is here for less than a week and she's off to fight to the death. What kind of place is Mayfield anyway?]

Sounds easy to find. ...I suppose I'll see you then.
