"That'll do," Ed said as he finished caking on the last layer of glue.
"I don't think that'llwork. Besides, now it looks really weird," Al said as he stared at the vase.
"It will work Al. It has to work."
"Why don't we just transmute it?"
"You know we can't do that! Remember Al, house rule number four thousand and seventy three: You are not allowed to use alchemy in my house." Ed said as he pulled out a gigantic handbook which had Izumi frowning on the front.
It's been a month since Ed and Al started training under Izumi, and since then their life had been completely transformed. They've been forced to eat three meals a day without anything unhealthy, They've been forced to train their body and mind daily, but worst of all, they've had to follow Izumi's crazy rules. Some of her rules were as follows.
Rule number one: You must wash your hands five times before you eat.
Rule number two: You are only allowed to read the books which I have given to you.
Rule number three: You must eat all of your vegetables.
Rule number four thousand and seventy three: No alchemy in the house.
Oh, and Sig had to follow these rules as well, but he had some more specific rules such as: You may only look at women from the chin up.
Ed and Al didn't have any problems with the laws, until now. They had finally found a fun activity that wasn't breaking any of the laws. They couldn't play outside or throw a ball indoors, but there was no law against indoor flaming Frisbee toss. They played for about five minutes until Al threw the Frisbee and it knocked the vase over. Sig came running into the room.
"What's going on. Ahh! You broke Supreme Overlord Izumi's fine china vase! Fix it before she gets back from the grocery store!" Sig said in a frenzied voice as he hid in the closet.
"Hurry Ed! I don't want to be eaten alive!" Al said as he began thinking of his short life.
"Don't worry Al, I'll go get some stuff!" Ed said as he ran into the supply closet. Not much later he came out with some glue, mighty putty, and duct tape.
"Use the mighty putty! That stuff can pull cars!" Al said very loudly.
Ed then put the broken shards together with the putty, only to see it fall apart. "Let's try the glue," Ed said as he began dumping glue everywhere. "That'll do," Ed said as he finished caking on the last layer of glue.
"I don't think that'llwork. Besides, now it looks really weird," Al said as he stared at the vase.
"It will work Al. It has to work."
"Why don't we just transmute it?"
"You know we can't do that! Remember Al, house rule number four thousand and seventy three: You are not allowed to use alchemy in my house." Ed said as he pulled out a gigantic handbook which had Izumi frowning on the front.
"I know it's against the rules, but I'd rather get in trouble for fixing something than breaking it!" Al said as he smacked the book out of Ed's hand. It landed on the vase and broke it even more.
"Good job Al, and all we have left is duct tape..." Ed said as he patched the vase together.
"Hey! It stays together!"
"Yeah, but the thing is, I don't think It'll last very long. It's only a temporary fix. When she goes to dust it, it'll fall apart." Ed said in a tone of defeat. Izumi walked in, and immediately Ed and Al began begging for her forgiveness.
"We didn't mean to break it! It just happened by accident!"
Al tried to talk while crying, "Saz gis bla yi to pab da!"
"What are you crying about?!" Izumi yelled.
"We...we broke your vase!" Ed said.
"So? I was throwing it out tomorrow. Now get off of me and get your brother to stop crying. Oh, and Sig?"
"Yes?"
"Get out of the closet."
HAHA...Sig is coming out of the closet...
