Private God
Chapter I: Playing God
A blond man was walking towards the East City's Military department, followed by a walking armor and a blond girl. Edward Elric, also known as the full metal alchemist, was walking towards one of the things he hated the most; the military department, the army, Roy Mustang. Obviously when he became a State Alchemist he didn't thought the same way he did now. He didn't like the military, but he didn't hate them either; and about Roy, he didn't knew him… not as much as needed.
"Ed, are you sure you want to do this? You don't seem very exited about seeing the colonel" Alphonse told the blond man walking in front of him.
"Do you think I want to see Mustang…?" Ed said with a cold voice "Of course not! I mean, his an ass! He thinks he knows every thing! I'm sick of him and his stupid sarcastic comments!" the alchemist started screaming like crazy about how much he detested the colonel.
"But… he's not so bad… is he?" Winry asked in a soft voice as older Elric looked her in the eyes.
After a few seconds of silence Edward stopped glaring at the beautiful girl and started screaming again. "It seems obvious that you don't know him as much as I do! He's always making fun of me… He thinks he's funny! I will show him something funny!"
"Take it easy and stop screaming would you" a voice came from the headquarter. Ed stopped yelling and turned his face to Riza standing next to the headquarters' door. "Colonel Mustang will kill you if he hears you talking like that"
"For him I'm already dead…" the national alchemist said to himself.
"Sorry?" asked Riza who had heard Ed saying something but hadn't understand it.
"Nothing, forget it."
"The Colonel is waiting for you" said Havoc once they entered the Military Department. He was also waiting for them, outside Roy's office.
"I give a fuck about what the colonel is waiting for" he murmured for himself again while he entered the office.
"I heard that" came Roy's simple voice from inside the office. He was sitting on his leather chair. "Now… what's your propose here?" The sunlight passed directly through the office window. Roy was smiling, happy knowing he could give orders to full metal, and not full metal to him.
"You called me! And told me it was an emergency!" the elder Elric screamed to his boss.
"Who said that? Is anybody there? I see nobody… Oh a dwarf!" Roy's mocking voice was heard as he glared at the blond alchemist "Oh no is you Edward" he commented after some seconds in deseption.
"Who are you telling dwarf you idiot! Let me show you wh…"
"I did call you" Mustang's voice had changed. It almost seemed he as talking seriously "I want you to investigate some murders that have occurred in the north region" the fire alchemist interrupted Ed before he could finish.
"What dose that has to do with me…" Edward said coldly.
"Oh, nothing. It's just that I thought you'll like to go" Roy said slowly as his face was covered with a sarcastic grin "there lives a really powerful alchemist; he once was a famous national alchemist"
"Another of your military dogs" Ed said to himself.
"Just like you" the colonel replayed "his nickname was the death alchemist, there are some rumors that he has the ability to bring the death back from the grave" after this words Ed stare at his chief in silence. After a few seconds Mustang continued "I guess that's a yes, then take the train to a city called Marbas and then you'll have to walk to this town where the murders have occurred, Vassago"
"Vassago? What kind of name is that" Ed said as he turned and walk towards the door.
"I want you to report me every single thing you discover; from the murders and from the death alchemist. When you catch the killer bring him to Marbas City; there they will imprison him." Roy ordered while he rested in his comfortable chair, knowing that mocking the young alchemist was one of his favorites things in this world.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever" commented full metal as he went out of the colonel's office.
Al got besides his bother letting Winry some steps behind "So… where are we going now?" Al asked his brother as they walk out of the military headquarters.
"Yeah, I'm curious too… where did the colonel send you this time?" Winry asked as she made a long step so she could be near the Elric brothers.
"A place called Vassago…" the blond haired boy said slowly.
"And… the mission is… which?" Winry asked again. Obviously still curious.
"He wants me to capture a slayer" the elder Elric said softly "and near that place there's a man who they called the death alchemist. He also wants me to investigate him." Edward told his companions.
"The death alchemist… I wonder why will they call him that way?" the living armor wondered.
"I think you already know the answer" his brother told him and then gave him a little hit in the forehead.
The tow alchemist and the girl walk and talk about stupid things until they got to the train station. In their way Ed never said what Mustang had communicated him about the death alchemist reviving the death.
"You know what I hate most… that in the train there's nothing good to eat and I'm always starving" the blond girl commented while Edward bought the tickets.
"Three tickets to Marbas City please" full metal asked for the tickets while Wirny continued talking about food and things.
"What! Weren't we going to Vassago?" Winry stopped her complaint to scream at Ed.
"Yeah, but there's no train to Vassago" Ed supported himself with what the colonel had told him.
"What kind of city is Vassago? if it doesn't have a train station" the younger of the Elric brothers asked kind of worried.
"Well it is more like a… town than a city" Ed commented hoping Winry and Al not to mind about that simple detail.
The bad thing for Edward was that his brother and his childhood friend did mind about that simple detail… so he suffered the consequences of his acts. After that the two alchemists and the mechanic entered the train. An hour had passed and Al had fall asleep. Ed had stayed in silence the whole time since they had enter the train, Ed had been wondering how that alchemist could revive people the whole time since they had enter the train.
A strange sound came from nowhere making full metal to stand up and get on his ward. "What was that?" he asked fastly to Winry.
"Ahh, it was my stomach, I haven't eat in an hour" the mechanic girl told Ed as she rub her stomach.
"…" Ed´s face change, he knew that was just the stupidest thing he had ever heard. "An hour…"
"Yeah… I'm starving" she commented noticing what Ed was thinking.
"Here, eat this" blond boy offered as he took out a chocolate from his pocket.
"Ahh, thanks!" Winry said before she graved it and eat it. Ed stayed in silence looking at her beauty. "Is everything alright?" she asked after a minute of silence.
"Yeah" he answered slowly.
"No, it's not" the blond girl's voice could be heard. She looked at her friend in the eyes and wondered why was he so stubborn "What's bothering you?"
"Ahh…" he let some seconds passed and then continued "well this man, this death alchemist, he… well Mustang told me he can resurrect the death."
"Why didn't you tell us?" She knew thought something was odd about this mission and now she was sure, but that didn't make her feel better.
"I... I don't want Al to know about this" Ed confessed
"Why?" she asked as fast as she could "I mean he's you brother. You should share everything with him!"
"Not everything" he said coldly; more to himself than to her.
Winry´s face changed, she stopped looking into Ed's eyes and turned giving him her back. She was not sure why, but she felt bad. It was what the two brothers were looking for, what they worked for, and now Ed was hiding it to his bother.
"Winry… I'm sorry, I can't tell him" Ed told her after some uncomfortable minutes of silence.
She turned again to face him "I know you should have your reasons… but, still you share the same dream… you should tell him. That's what I think" she finished in a low and soft voice.
Winry saw this ability as what the world needed to become a better place. She saw it as a new hope, as a new salvation. What she didn't knew was that death was as natural as life. Edward knew it, he had experienced it, he knew that stopping any of those two things was playing God, and he knew that playing God was not funny.
