My first (and maybe last) hetero couple ever. I just love them. I love Izumi. and Sig.

Betaed by Blind Alchemist, a dear friend of mine.

Enjoy!


She fell face first onto the dusty main roads of the town of Dublith, Western Amestris. Her stomach grumbled loudly, due to the fact that she hadn't had anything to eat for the last fifteen hours. She had just come back from the Northern Briggs, and although it was uncharacteristic of her, she lost her way through the roads and ended up somewhere in the western areas, which were filled with the scent of ending summer and welcoming autumn.

She needed food. Urgently. She wanted to eat a proper meal, with all meats and breads and vegetables, since she'd only survived on canned food from the Brigg's soldiers and a single bear. The bear was tasty, though. But the old bastard Gold Steiner took all her appetite away, after declaring that he wasn't even an alchemist.

And she looked up to find a sanctuary.

There, above the city, a big ribbon was tied up from one end to the other, flamboyantly displaying: THE ARM-WRESTLING COMPETITION. FIRST PRIZE: ALL YOU CAN EAT IN ANY OF DUBLITH'S INN.

She smiled.

Suddenly her strength was back.


Of course it was so easy for her; she flipped a bear with one hand, and next defeating a 200-pound man with nothing but fat (actually it was all muscle) was too easy. She flipped them down so fast they didn't realized that their hands were already under the table.

"Yosha! Another win! Izumi! This wonderful woman has already knocked down twenty men! Don't look down upon her! And by the way, would you mind not breaking anymore tables, Izumi-san? This is the twentieth table we have changed, and we are afraid there are no more spares…"

Izumi nodded, but not without grumbling. She wished everything would finish off quickly so she could get her free meal. She was sure that nobody dared to challenge her, given that the last man whose arm she'd broken was 200 pounds with a body like a swollen bodybuilder's.

"I will challenge her. This is the last."

Suddenly the crowd was cheering louder, calling, "Sig! Sig! Sig!"

Izumi turned her head to find the most gorgeous man alive—very masculine and muscular, with nicely cut hair and a black thick beard. Very, very much her type.

He sat down before her, offering his hand. Izumi nodded, and took his hand in her palm. It felt so right, warm, and big. So nice.

"And…. START!"

When the signal was given, Izumi immediately concentrated on her hand. They could say that the man actually did have better strength than others. But she was still better, and when she was ready to push the man's hand down, satisfied with their skin contact, suddenly the man kneeled down and took Izumi's hand in his. Instead of knocking Izumi down, the man kissed the palm in his hand.

"You are so wonderful. I have been watching you… Please marry me."

Silence ensued.


"An that's how we ended up together, right, my dearest hubby?" Izumi blushed and embraced her husband. Sig Curtis nodded while hugging back his dearest wife inside his arms. They looked too lovey dovey, just like those silly couples who couldn't let go of each other's arms.

Edward and Alphonse looked at each other. And they thought of the same thing, knowing that the other also thought of the same thing.

'Why do they always change the story of how they met?'

Dont you think FMA's Izumi and Olivia are the two of most-coolest-ever women characters?
