Ed: Whoop de doo.
Al: Brother, be nice to the writer. She controls our fate.

Ed's POV
You ever feel like you're having the worst day of your life, but then it just gets worse and you feel like shooting yourself? Yeah. That's what it was like for me today.
"I cant. Believe. I'm doing this." Yup. That was me talking. Right now, I'm cleaning up dog piss off the floor. I mean, Jesus Christ! It's Fury's dog and Mustang let him keep it! You'd think one of THEM would be cleaning up THEIR dog's piss. But noooo. Instead of using this valuble time on finding the Philosipher's Stone, I'm. Cleaning. Dog piss.
That's just one of the many things I'm mad about. Mustang's been fucking me over all day. It was chore after chore after chore. First it was clean his car, then it was mop up in the cafeteria, and NOW I'm cleaning up after his mutt. Juuust great. A perfect day.
I heard the door open and looked up. Guess who was right in the doorway, smirking? You got it. It was the bastard himself, the great flame alchemist, Roy Mustang.
I glared at him. "What now?" I swear to God, if he gave me one more chore...
Roy just smirked at me. "Well, the garbage needs to be taken out..."
That was it. "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? WHY DONT YOU JUST GIMME A REAL GOD DAMN ORDER FOR GOD'S SAKE?" I slowly calmed down. I knew what would come next. I'd get the 'I can expose Al's secret to the world blabbity blabbity blah' speech. I figured if i waited quietly and pretended i was listening, he wouldnt wake up everyone in the town.
Roy opened his mouth to say something but then closed it, looking thoughtful. "Hmm...alright. I do have an assignment for you, Ed."
"Whoa...really? No yelling?"
"No. I have a very interesting case here. You see, there's been several mass murders so far in the past week. It's getting more and more out of hand. He doesnt seem to be targeting specifically. It's really just anyone he manages to catch. Witnesses described him as a man with short brown hair. They also have never seen his face because he wears a mask. They described the mask all white with two slits for eye holes. The only other detail about the mask is that it has a mouth that is always plastered in a sickening grin. Get all that?"
"So far, yeah." I was on full alert now. The one thing i couldnt stand was some cold blooded bastard that ran around killing people because he enjoyed it.
Roy nodded. He even seemed serious now. "We recently got a call about another murder. You go check it out and see what you think of it. Report back immediately when you're done." I started walking away but Roy stopped me. "One more thing. What we'll be calling him for now is Mask."
I nodded and walked out. I decided not to tell Al. It was better if he wasnt involved in this at all.
I warily walked down the street. I honestly didnt wanna be out after dark if this guy was still lurking around. I nearly jumped out of my skin when i felt someone tap my shoulder. I calmed a bit when i saw it was just an ordinary man. He had dark brown hair with piercing green eyes and a white t-shirt on with faded blue jeans.
"Hey." The man stared at me. "You headed to the crime scene."
"Yes, sir. I'm a state alchemist. Edward Elric."
"Ah, yes. You're that Fullmetal Alchemist everyone's been talking about. My name is Vic. Vic Hudson. My wife was killed by that masked person." Vic looked down angerly. "If i ever get my hands on him...he's going to wish he's never been born."
I looked down. It must've hurt him terribly when his wife was murdered. And he looks so angry... I just hope he doesnt get ahead of himself and actually go after the murderer. "I'm sorry, Vic. I promise, I'll catch this guy fo you. Dont worry."
Vic smiled. "Thank you, Edward. I appreciate it."
I waved. "I gotta go. Talk to ya later." I walked off to the murder scene. Now let me say something right now. I've seen a lot of gross things in my life, but this was by far the most discusting. Mask cut open her skull and most likely used a blender to scarmble her brain. He even managed to cut through her stomach and scramble her organs with the blender. There was blood EVERYWHERE, and I was suprised i didnt puke right there on the spot. I mean, it's one thing to murder someone, but THIS? This is just sick... I had to leave before i puked so i quickly walked back to report to Mustang.
I thought this day was bad, and I had no idea it was about to get much, much worse.
Mask's POV
He was perfect. I saw him walking by and realized i had to have him. No matter what it took, i needed that boy. I sharpened by weapons and smiled as i thought of what i would do to him. A boy this special needed special treatment, right? I would make it nice and long...nice and painful...oh, i would definetly enjoy this. Now i just needed the right time...
Lucario: Those of you who arent stupid should know who Mask is talking about. And for those of you who dont, get with the program, people!
Ed: I dont like this story...
Lucario: You'll get over it. R&R plz! Till next time...
All: BYYYEEEEE!
