Pulverization

"Are you kidding? I'm not going to let you pulverize my automail until the last screw." Edward refused. Winry pouted. "I'll put it back together! I promise!" she protested, holding up three of her trusty screwdrivers. Edward shook his head. "I refuse." He said plainly. Winry started one of her mini-fits. "I said I promise I will put it back together!" she insisted. "No, ask someone else." He snarled. Winry sulked but ran over to Alphonse. "Al, can I pull apart…" she trailed off because Alphonse cut her in. "No way, Winry. Do it on Ed." He said sternly. Winry stared at him then back at Edward. That was final. She was going to take apart Edward's arm, whether he wanted it or not. She stomped over to Edward with a determined face. "Sorry." She said as she clenched a screwdriver with her teeth. Edward looked at her. "Sorry? For what?" he asked, slightly suspicious. Winry grinned and grabbed her wrench. "For this." She responded, churning the wrench on one of the screws on Edward's automail. Edward's eyes widened. "Stop that." He ordered but Winry had made up her mind. She pulled the screwdriver from her teeth and started to unbolt screws. Edward sighed. There was no stopping her. "Winry, this is the last time I'm ever letting you do this." He mumbled. Winry shook the screws out and began to adjust the metal layers. "You said that the last time I did this." She informed, before turning the whole arm off. Edward growled silently. Winry tore the whole arm apart and beamed at the broken pieces. "I'm done." She said happily. Edward glared at her. "Now, fulfill your promise and give my arm back." He said. Winry nodded and commenced to fix everything back together.

Winry dropped her screwdrivers and snapped the arm back in place. "I told you I would put it back together in the end." She said. Edward rolled his eyes. "Winry, if I hadn't told you to put it back together, you would have kept the pieces and never return them." He muttered. Winry stuck her tongue out and started to reach for her screwdrivers and wrench but Edward snatched them before her. "Hey!" she shouted in surprise. "No more 'taking it apart and putting it back together' for you, I can't let you have your screwdrivers and wrench back until I make sure that you won't do it again." He reasoned, packing them in his pocket. Winry shook her head. "No! Give them back NOW!" she whined, pulling on Edward's shirt. Edward held firm. "No." he said simply, patting his pocket protectively. Winry gave him an icy look. "Please?" she appealed, frowning. Edward let out a breath. He was getting tired of this. "Winry, promise that you won't take apart my arm again and you can have your screwdrivers and wrench back." He said. Winry thought for a moment then glanced at her watch. "Hmm…I better go now. You can keep them, Ed. I have others, you know!" she called as she fled out the door. Edward snickered. "No you don't. I have them too." He murmured as he unzipped his other pocket. Inside, there were more screwdrivers and tools. "Winry, I guess you'll never see your beloved tools again." He whispered, half-talking to himself.
