My Snippets, Incomplete Ideas, or Prototype Works

Regulus Tohsaka POV: A Month Later

I watched my parents and Rin from the depths of my nature covered space as they stood across from where Zouken, Byakuya, and my puppet counterpart were.

My right hand idly spun the stylized dagger that was given to me by Rin a day before today...originally, she would have given a ribbon but I was a guy instead of a girl so she bought me a dagger.

"This will be something to at least remember me by," were the words she had said and then her eyes turn cold as she turned away from me that day leaving me to blankly stare the dagger still clutched in my hand.

For a moment I'd been stunned a part of me had clung to the illusion that we were closer than that, that our bond as siblings was stronger than the pressure of our father's commands or the expectations of the Tohsaka family.

But then I remembered.

I remembered how easily she obeyed our father's every word, how quickly she adapted to the roles and rules he set for us as if her identity was molded by his approval alone. I thought of Sakura and the cold indifference Rin showed toward her in the other fate routes it seemed that even in this reality she was no different and part of me resented her for that.

She had discarded me behind like I was nothing our bond as siblings meant nothing to her, it was to be expected still it stung and I wished I didn't care about her either the way she did me but I couldn't.

I numbly continued to watch the projection watching as they split up back to the Matou household I quietly watched as my puppet (reinforced and carved with a ton of high explosive runes) was finally tossed into the pool of crest pool...now was the time to act!!

Not wasting a moment longer, I activated the explosive runes all at once that caused Zouken's smiling face to now shift into one of shock he had no time to react as my puppet exploded destroying every single one of his worms before destroying his 'body'

The explosion grew bigger engulfing the whole entire household which unfortunately meant that both Byakuya and Shinji were now dead as well unfortunate really, but it had to be done in order to completely destroy Zouken before he had a chance to escape through some random window or floorboard.

I opened up a rift landing on a nearby building roof top that was a good distance away from the Matou house but still close to the point where I could see it with my reinforced eyes.

Some might say it's overkill what I am about to do next but I never leave something up to chance. Black, gray flames danced around my palms as I then twisted my hands back until it looked like I was loading an arrow "Hollow Flame Arrow!" I called out enhancing its mystery from my imaginary space releasing the infernal projectile.

The arrow soared through the air leaving a trail of black and gray embers in its wake. The moment it struck the burning house, the ground erupted in a wave of dark flames, consuming everything in its path.
