Hello again! I was going to make this a short story, but it grew and grew into so much more...So here it is! Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist...there I'm safe...
Edward and Alphonse were staying at a room in the Central military building. They tried to pass the time but found themselves finally out of ideas.
"Dammit, the one day I need information from the Colonel, HE'S NOT HERE!"
"Well, Brother, I told you we should have called ahead..."
"We were near Central so I thought I would just come...damn him.." Edward got up from the couch and grabbed his red coat.
"Where are you going?"
"Out for a walk, just stay here."
"Ok, I guess I'll just clean my armor but you remembered what happened the last time you went walking alone?"
Ed looked past Alphonse trying to remember.
"No...but I won't do it again."
"YOU DON'T REMEMBER? You- HEY!"
Al yelled at his brother but he had already walked out. Edward walked outside, putting on his coat and wandered the street.
"I wonder what I did before...it's probably just some small thing Al got upset about..."
Edward walked the streets looking at every building. He tried to find something, a bookstore, anything to pass the time. Edward saw an automail tool shop and shuddered. That incident with Winry...Edward moved away quickly from the building when he felt something under his shoe.
"What the?" He picked up the object to see it was a colorful straw like container. He moved it to feel that it had something inside. A name was written on the side.
"Pixie Stick?" Edward had never seen it before. He felt the top of it and peeled the top off. He looked inside and saw colorful dust.
"What the heck is this?" He place some of it on his palm. He stared at it then looked around to see if someone was watching. He put his finger in it and licked the dust.
"Not bad...sweet.." He put the rest of what was in his palm and in the container in his mouth. "This is really good!"
Suddenly Ed's face brightened and a smile appeared on his face.
"I WANT MORE." His mind said. As he thought this, a little kid was leaving a candy store and he saw it.
"SUGAR!" Edward ran towards the kid who fought against him.
"LET GO OF MY CANDY!"
"I WANT MORE!GIMME DAMMIT!"
Edward grabbed the candy and quickly ate it. He saw the candy store the boy had left.
"THEY HAVE MORE. YOU WANT IT RIGHT?" Edward heard a voice in his mind and ran into the store. He slammed his fists on the counter.
"I WANT SUGAR!" The candy store owner stared at Edward, who had pixie dust all over his lips.
"Umm..you need money." Edward took off his red coat to look for money in the pockets, then for some bizarre reason took off his pants to look through the pockets too.
"Will this cover it?" He slammed his watch onto the counter.
"Sorry...cash only..."
"DAMMIT! They're doing this on purpose! Wait here for me my precious candy!"
He turned around and stood there ready to run but looked back and grabbed his watch.
"I'm gonna need this..." He ran out of the store and headed towards the military building where Al was. It seemed he didn't notice he was running around in only a sleeveless black shirt and his boxers with everyone staring at him...
Back in the room, Al was petting the black-spotted white cat he had picked up outside
"Brother, I know you told me we couldn't have a cat, but I found this poor little guy outside and I was wondering..." Al was rehearsing when he heard a tap on the window.
"Huh?" He heard the tap again and just as he got up he saw a round object go through the window with a loud crash.
"W-WHAT THE...?" Alphonse looked at the broken window, then at the State Alchemist watch that had crashed through the window.
"AAAAAAALLLLLLL!" Edward screamed from outside.
"I NEED MONEY!" Edward shouted to his brother on the second floor of the building. Al looked at his brother in his black shirt and boxers and knew something was wrong.
"Brother, you didn't...huh?" Al had looked away then leaned on the window to see that his brother had disappeared in a split second.
"Money money..." Edward was right behind him looking around the room.
"What the? But you were just...you were outside...how?" Al looked at his brother. He then remembered. ED'S SUITCASE. Al saw Ed had thought of the same thing. They both ran toward it.
"NOO!" Al jumped on the suitcase and stuck a hand out at his brother to stop.
"AL! I need the money!"
"NO YOU DON'T! You ate sugar didn't you?"
"Al get off..."
"But.."
"ME NEED MONEY!" Ed kicked straight upward and kicked Al's head off. He then pushed the rest of Al's body off.
"BROTHER!" Al quickly found his head and saw his brother rummage through the suitcase throwing everything around.
"Brother, you're only acting like this because you ate something sugary, it's bad for you."
"NO IT'S NOT! Mark TOLD me it's good!"
"M-mark? Who's that?"
"It's the voice in my head who told me to find money. He didn't have a name so I named him Mark. He said the cows don't want me to have sugar and they're bad. Those damn milk-producing bastards! I knew they were up to no good!" Edward glared at his brother.
"You're not with the cows are you?" Edward stepped closer looking straight at Al's eyes.
"N-no..."
"GOOD!" Edward smiled when he heard this. He felt something touch his leg. He looked down to see a cat looking up at him.
"OH! Brother...ummm...I was wondering...could I..."
"AHH! Perfect! A shield against the cows!" He picked up the cat and placed on his head.
"There, I'm ready to go! COME ON MARK!" Edward grabbed a bag from his suitcase and ran towards the window.
"AH! Don't ju---" Al tried to warn his brother they were on the second floor. He ran to the window to grab him just as Edward had opened the broken window and was on his way down. Edward landed smoothly and started to run with the cat still on his head.
"..." Al looked out the window stunned. He thought of the poor cat on Edward's head.
"I GOTTA GO AFTER HIM!" Al ran out the door to catch up with his sugar high brother.
Al...hmm...the things he has to deal with...oh well. Hope you enjoyed the first part. Second chapter coming soon!
