Chapter one

Roy Mustang stared in wonder, wondering what Edward's problem is. He had been acting weird all day for some reason, even Alphonse admitted that Ed had come unexplainably late last night acting strange. All he had to do was pound Ed over and over and bother him until he told him about what happened, but somehow he felt that this was different. Somehow Roy felt that that wasn't the way this time, for some strange reason.

He called Ed in for his report, when he heard thumping outside his door. He got up to make sure everything was all right, and when he opened the door there laid a certain Fullmetal alchemist on the floor rubbing his head which was forming a bruise.

Roy sighed. "What the hell, Fullmetal? You know I didn't ask you to come here just so you could break down my door again."

Edward scowled at him. "I know, Mustang, but it's just so much fun making you pissed that I purposefully ran into the door trying to knock myself out." He said as he tried to stand up, but his legs gave out and he fell back on the floor, and shouted when his butt hit the floor.

Mustang raised an eyebrow. "…Well that was a little dramatic, Ed you didn't have to scream," he said as he rolled his eyes and put his hand down for Ed to hold on to as he stood up.

Ed pushed it away. "Whatever I haven't been feeling too good lately…"

So that was it. Maybe he just was sick or something and that's why he had been acting all distant and foggy eyed today. That still didn't explain why he had ran into his door.

"You mind telling me how you fell on my door, Fullmetal?

Ed sighed. "Jesus Mustang I slipped on your oh-so-perfect glossy floors that you have mopped three freakin' times a day. I don't know how you people can run back and forth like you do without killing yourselves from the floor…"

"There's these new things that came out called 'SHOES THAT HAVE SOLES ON THE BOTTOM SO YOU DON'T SLIP' you should try them sometime."

Ed scowled. "Bastard…" He said as he got up. Roy noted that he scrunched his face in pain as he went into his office and sat on his couch. He figured he'd let it go so he didn't have to deal with another rant over something stupid again.

"Ok Ed im just gonna be honest with you here… I didn't call you in so you could give me your report. Obviously you knew that, or you just didn't care and that's why you didn't bother to bring anything with you." Ed rolled his eyes as Roy went on. "I called you in so we could talk. Al told me you came home last night acting different…very different, also a lot later. You mind telling me what happened and why you worried Al like that?"

Ed looked up suddenly. Roy could tell Ed was thinking something really important for him to not have made some shitty ass comment yet.

"Ed. Come on I don't have all day."

"Um…nothing.. nothing happened I just got.. busy.." Ed barely mumbled the last part out as he put his head to the floor.

"..Well Ed be more descriptive."

Ed's eyes flew open. "DESCRIPTIVE? NO I WON'T AND ALSO HERE'S ANOTHER THING, 'COLONEL, SIR'," Ed screamed, "MY LIFE IS MY FUCKING LIFE SO YOU LEAVE ME ALONE AND LET ME DO WHAT I WANT IT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS WHAT GOES ON AND WHAT HAPPENS. ITS NOT LIKE I COULD CONTROL WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT YOU THINK I WANTED THAT TO HAPPEN? NO I DIDN-" Ed stopped suddenly realizing he was about to tell Mustang everything.

Mustang realized something happened last night that Ed wasn't dealing with the right way. "Ed.. tell me what happened."

Ed looked down. "I-I-I just.." Ed stopped and looked up at Roy.

"Edward?" Roy started to panick. What the hell happened to him last night?

"It's nothing…" Ed said and he got up and went to the door.

"EDWARD ELRIC." Roy shouted. Edward stopped at the door. "NO ITS NOT NOTHING APPARENTLY. YOU GET YOUR ASS BACK IN HERE NOW."

"You can't tell me what to do, Mustang." Ed then turned around and tried to smile a little. "And it's nothing anyway, I just….its nothing but I gotta go Al is waiting for me.." and then he rushed off practically running through the hall. Roy just stared down the hallway watching the boy leave. Why won't he tell me what's going on…. Roy thought. He went back to his desk and started filling out more of the paperwork Riza had given him when he just thought of something.

"HAVOC!" Roy shouted.

"Yes, sir?"

"We have the ability to see the film on the security cameras on buildings, correct?"

"Pretty sure, sir. If not that would be pretty lame…"

Roy shot a glare at him.

"Um… I mean.. YES, SIR. I'LL GET THE FILM RIGHT AWAY WHAT CAMERA WOULD YOU LIKE? Havoc shouted trying to cover his tracks. Roy put his hands through his hair. There are many security cameras around Fullmetal's house, he thought… Which one should I choose to see what really happened…
