A Family Crisis
It had been 9 years since the last time Roy Mustang and Edward Elric had seen each other. Roy was thinking about how he missed Fullmetal's rants when people called him short, the way he had called Roy, Colonel bastard, and the way Roy never got any work done when Edward was in the room. Roy smiled as he leaned back against his chair. He stretched and closed his eyes, leaning his head back. He was remembering all the times that him and Fullmetal had gotten into fights and Hawkeye would have to butt in and get them apart before they ripped each others heads off.
Roy was brought out of his thoughts by a small tug on his sleeve. He opened his eyes and looked down to be met with big, curious, red-brown eyes. He smiled and stood before he kneeled in front of the small girl.
"What is it, Robin?" Roy asked, sweetly.
"Momma says it's time for dinner." the girl said. Roy smiled and ruffled the girls onyx hair that matched his own.
"Alright, baby. Tell her I'll be down in a few. I just gotta finish up some paperwork." he told the girl. She smiled and nodded. She turned and skipped out of Roy's office and down the stairs.
"She's so cute..." Roy said to himself. He stood and continued with the paperwork he was supposed to be completing.
~o.o.o~
Edward Elric was sitting out on the porch of his house, thinking about his old friend, Roy Mustang. He couldn't believe it had been 9 years since they had seen each other. It hadn't seemed that long. Edward leaned his head back and closed his eyes, thinking about all the times that him and Roy had gotten into fights and almost ripped each others heads off. Ed smiled slightly at the memory of them yelling at each other about a stupid matter and Riza Hawkeye had gotten in the way and told them both to quit it or she'd shoot them both. Ah, how he missed those days when he was threaten by the strong military woman.
Edward was brought out of his memories by a small tug on his sleeve. His eyes opened and he looked down and into soft, kind, sapphire blue eyes. He smiled and slid off the rocking chair and kneeled by the small boy.
"What's wrong, kid?" he asked.
"Granny Pinaku says it's time for dinner." the boy said.
"Okay. Tell her I'll be there in a bit. I just gotta check in with Uncle Al, okay?" Edward told the boy. The boy smiled and nodded before running into the house. Edward smiled as he watched the boy. He stood and grabbed the cell phone out of his pocket and dialed his brother phone number.
~o.o.o~
Alphonse Elric jumped slightly at the sound of his cell phone ringing. He got it out of his pocket and looked at the called ID.
Brother :)
Al smiled and answered the phone.
"Hello?"
"Hey, bro." the voice on the other end said. Even if Al couldn't see it, he knew Brother was smiling.
"Hi, Brother. How's everything going there?" Al asked, putting his elbow on the arm of the chair he was sitting at.
"Pretty good. How's everything in Xing?" the older Elric asked.
"Good. How's Seth?" Al asked. Edward smiled.
"Getting big. How's Angel and Allen?" Ed asked. Alphonse smiled to himself as he watched the said kids play in front of him.
"Good. Obnoxious and adorable." Al answered.
"That's good. Well, I gotta go. Winry's calling for dinner. I was just checking in." Ed said.
"Okay. Bye, Brother." Al said, standing up and heading for the kitchen to help Mai with dinner.
"Bye, Al." Ed said, before hanging up and putting the phone back in his pocket. Al put his phone away and helped Mai cook dinner.
~a few days later~
Alphonse jumped at the sudden ringing. He woke up and turned on his bedside lamp. Mai sat up.
"What's going on, Al?" she asked.
"I don't know. My phone's ringing." Al said, reaching for his phone. He looked at the caller ID.
"It's Edward. I wonder what's wrong." Mai said, looking over Al's shoulder. Al nodded and answered.
"Al! Thank God you answered!" Al heard Ed say on the other end.
"Brother? What's going on? Hold on. I'm putting you on speaker phone." Al said, putting his phone on speaker so Mai could hear also.
"What's going on, Edward?" Mai asked.
"Seth's gone!" Ed said, obviously freaked.
"What?!" Mai and Al asked at the same time.
"Seth is gone. Winry and I heard a noise in the middle of the night and it woke us. We went to check on Seth and he was gone!" Ed explained, freaking out again. Al heard Winry's voice in the background.
"Brother, give the phone to Winry." Al said. There was silence before Winry's voice came on.
"Al? It's Winry." she answered.
"What was the noise you heard?" Al asked.
"It was a thump and then a slam. Like someone fell or something and then someone slammed a door or a window. When Ed and I went to check, Seth's bed covers were on the floor and his window was open." Winry explained.
Then, Mai and Al heard the exact noise Winry had explained.
"What was that, Mai?" Al asked.
"I don't know." Mai answered.
"Al? What's going on?" Winry asked.
"I'll call you later Winry." Al said, hanging up before Winry could respond. Mai and Al slowly made their way down the hall and towards the twins' room. The door was open. They walked in and Mai gasped and coiled into Al.
The beds were empty, the sheets were on the floor and the window was open.
Angelique and Allen were gone...
Me: Welp, hope you all liked the first chapter. :)
Edward: My kid's gone?
Me: Yes. So is Al and Mai's kids.
Edward: ... *starts freaking out*
Me: *sighs* Anyway, please review! :D It keep me going! :D
