SCA: It better be if it's long.
Kamon: You will love it. ^.^
SCA: I can't wait to read it.
Kamon: Heh, of course, also SCA wrote this chapter. Edward, do the disclaimer, Please?
Edward: Fine.. Kamon and SCA don't own FMAB but they do own their OCs.
Prologue
"That...was a terrible movie."
"What? How could you think that was terrible? It was great!"
"You probably weren't even paying attention. You were probably ogling Ed the whole time." The first girl replied, pushing her dark hair back.
"Was not!" The second girl yelped, her short brown hair shivering in the wind. She turned to the first girl with a frown, "Besides, I thought you liked FMA?"
"I do." She responded, crossing her arms, "I just didn't like the animation."
"That doesn't mean it was a terrible movie, Mika."
"Yes it does, Kaylee. All of it has to be good for me to like it."
"Whatever." Kaylee said, rolling her eyes, "Let's go eat, I'm hungry"
"Me too."
The two girls turned and headed up the street, entering a small cafe situated a few buildings down from the movie theater. They took a seat near a window, Kaylee leaning forward to watch a stray cat dart across the street. Mika's eyes glided around the cafe, watching as a waitress came over to greet them.
"Hello!" The waitress said cheerfully, "What can I get for you?"
"I'll have coffee and a blueberry scone, please." Mika said softly.
"I'll have coffee and a chocolate chip muffin." Kaylee said, giving the waitress a smile. The woman smiled back, scribbling down their orders before walking away. She returned a few minutes later with their food and drinks, smiling again before she left.
Mika was much more talkative once the waitress was gone and it took the girls quite a while to finish their food. Once they were done and had paid, they left the cafe, exiting out to an almost empty street.
"Huh, there's usually more people walking here." Kaylee said, looking around, "Is something going on that we don't know about?"
"Dunno. Isn't graduation today? Over at the college?"
"Oh! Yeah, I think you're right. Makes sense. Well, let's get going. I want to go home and watch some more FMA!" Kaylee exclaimed, grabbing Mika wrist.
"Alright, alright!" Mika laughed, letting Kaylee drag her across the street. Considering there were never very many cars on the road, neither girl bothered to really look before they crossed. It was a dire mistake.
There was loud, echoing screech as a red car hit it's breaks too late, hitting the two girls with a sickening thud. There was a flurry of movement in the cafe as those by the windows realized something terrible had just happened outside.
Kaylee slowly pushed herself up, just barely managing to locate Mika and call her name before a bright, white light engulfed her.
"Up on melancholy hill there is a plastic tree.
Are you here with me?
Just looking out on the day of another dream."
Lynn desperately regretted the decision to purchase a car and not buy a GPS for it. Because she was currently lost in a Texan town with nothing but an almost dead cell phone, enough garbage to fill a small landfill, and a map that was next to useless. Why was she here again?
She knew why she was here. An old friend of hers was graduating college and had invited her to come down. It had taken a lot of begging and pleading to get her parents to let her go by herself but she had managed. Her friend had given her directions, but she had lost them somewhere in Oklahoma. Now all she had was a map she had picked up at a gas station near the Texas border.
Lynn wasn't really the kind of person to get lost easily. But she also wasn't one for traveling outside of Illinois on a regular basis. She couldn't read the map, she couldn't call her friend, and the place seemed to be deserted. That meant she couldn't ask for directions.
She sighed, turning slowly onto another street. The street was long, straight, and deserted. Figuring she'd be good for at least a moment, Lynn took her eyes away from the road to glance at the map spread out on the seat beside her. She failed to find where she was and, with a sigh, she looked up again.
Lynn gave a squeak, slamming her foot on the break as two girls suddenly appeared in her path. She was a bit too late.
She hit them hard, her whole body flying foward only to be stopped by her seatbelt. Cursing, she spun the wheel to keep from hitting the girls again only to lose control of the car. It spun and slid, slamming into a far too convently placed tree. Lynn let out a small scream, reaching up to cover her face. Her front window shattered; glass flew past her as the car finally stopped moving. Her vision got spotty as she tried to move, tried to find the poor girls she had hit.
A sharp pain flew up her side as she turned and her vision went white. It dragged her down and she knew no more.
Kamon: THIS WAS AN AWESOME WAY TO START OFF THINGS SCA!3 *applauds SCA*
SCA: It's a little short by my standards, but it's more of a prologue than anything else. Okay, that was a lie. It's very short. I'm sorryyy.
Ed: Who are you calling short?
SCA: How many times do we have to go over this, Ed? Just 'cause I say somethings short doesn't mean I'm talking about you.
Ed: Hmph. Sure. That's what they all say.
SCA: You really want to do this again? Is that what you're saying Edward?
Ed:...
Kamon: Shut up Ed or I will take you to the fangirls. *snickers*
