Hey there! This is one of my first Full Metal Alchemists(FMA) stories. I have made many stories before this one about FMA, but they just didn't cut it. So please tell me if I have any name wrong or anything wrong with the reasons. I didn't watch the series when Ed 'supposedly' died. So I don't know anything after that episode. So please give me some slack. I know that the General died in one episode, but I am going to include him and his daughter in this story. So lets get started. . .
((I Don't Own FMA, I don't want to anyway. To many episodes. I just own Kiku))

"C'mon, Al! We're going to be late!" a boy with blonde hair yells as he steps outside to the Train Station. A metal, empty, suit of armor comes out of the building with glowing white eyes. It started to walk towards the boy running to the Train Station.
"Brother, what are you doing? We aren't going to be late." the suit said as it started to clang it's way towards the Station. The suit's eyes started to grow to a soft gray. The sun was over they're heads as the temperature risen to a eighty degree. The boy wiped a sweat off his brow as he got the suit and himself a ticket for the train. The boy waited for the suit to catch up.
"Lets hurry up, so we can out of the heat." the boy said as he stepped onto the train carrying his bag. The suit followed, not saying a word. He just followed.
When they got on the train, the boy picked a seat and sat down. The suit followed and put their bags up on top of the seats. The suit sat down and started to relax.
"Mustang actually called us to Central this time," the boy exclaimed excitably. The body just nodded and listened.
"He said that we had something to do. I asked why, but he didn't say a thing. He just said that we had a new mission and that we had somethings to do before we go." the boy said with a laid back look. The suit started to up, and look at the boy seriously.
"What if we get in trouble? I mean we did do some damage at the Cathedral. . ." the suit said with a concerned look in it's eyes. The boy just nodded and looked out the window. He wasn't listening, he was thinking. The suit was looking at the boy, and was going to try to get his attention, but just ignored the fact that he wasn't thinking. He was actually thinking for once.
They finally got the Central Station, after two hours on the train. With a sleepy walk, the boy got off the train with his bag. He noticed that it was about four o'clock and he didn't want to keep the general waiting. He told the suit to hurry up and started to walk inside the Military Station.
The suit was trying to come in before it looked like it was going to rain, so it ran in. Catching in at the perfect time, the boy was at the front desk, talking to the secretary.
"Uh. . .miss, we need to see the General. Its the Full Metal Alchemists." the boy said with pride. The secretary was looking at a computer screen, and shook her head. The boy suddenly dropped his jaw, and looked at the secretary with a serious face.
"The Elric Brothers? Edward and Alphonse Elric?" the boy said with concern. The secretary kept shaking her head staring at the computer screen. Suddenly, a girl walked in from the door leading into the building's inside. She had blonde hair, that was put up, and was wearing a hat. She told the secretary something secret, and told her to let them in. The secretary nodded and told the brothers to go in.
"Thetas what I thought." the boy said. The suit quietly followed with a sympathetic look in it's eyes. The went inside the door, with the woman waiting there.
"Boy, Ed. What is your problem? Didn't even put a reservation?" the woman said. Looking at the boy. The boy grew red in the face, and stomped on into the hallway. The suit just listened.
The woman led them to a room, with bookcases in it. A man was there, and was reading something in a huge desk. He had black hair, with an eye patch over his right eye, and was looking like he was having a hard time reading the book with his eye patch over his eye. The man look up, and noticed that the boy was red with embarrassment.
"So, Ed, how was your mission in the south?" the man asked the boy. The boy just stood there, thinking of what to say. The man was staring at him with his one eye, trying to concentrate on him. The boy looked at the floor.
"Well sir, we didn't finish it. Ed here was trying to finish it when you called us to do another job." the suit told the man. the man sat up, with his hands behind his head.
"That's fine boys. I'll send someone else to do the job." The man said with a happy a look on his face. The boy jumped back, hitting the suit. His look on his face meant terror, but it suddenly disappeared with a excitement.
"So, what do you want us for, Mustang?" the boy asked with a curious look on his face. Mustang just smiled and motioned the woman to do something. She exited the room. Ed turned and saw her leave, and watch her walk out the door.
"Where is she goin'?" Ed asked Mustang, with another curious look on his face. Mustang just turned the question, and kept reading his book. Suddenly, the woman came back, with someone accompanying her. She had short brown hair, with steel blue eyes, and looked like she was from up north.
"Boys, this is Kiku. She is a recruit alchemist, and she has somethings to tell you about your new mission." Mustang told them, looking at the with a smirk on his face. They were staring at her in awe. Kiku just stared at the floor, and was blushing.
"What is the mission about anyway, Mustang?" Ed said as he took his eyes off of Kiku. Mustang just sighed with a sad look on his face.
"Well, there have been siting of a strange killer in the west. I think it's the emunkulie again. But, they say that the killing's are that the heads are broken in half. And, they had blood coming from their ears and eyes. It seems it is Scar's work. Kiku was a witness to one of the killings, but she only saw how the person died. Not what the Killer looked like. Isn't that right, Kiku?" Mustang told the two, looking at Kiku. Kiku just nodded.
"I-I was caught in the moment." Kiku stuttered. She was nervous.
"What happened?" Alphonse asked, finally speaking. Kiku lifted her head, staring at Alphonse.
"The man's head was just a lump, and the Killer laughed at the site. She was saying how weak he was and how pathetic he was. It was terrifying. She caught me looking, and told me that I shouldn't study alchemy when I was her age. And then she left." Kiku said, shaking. Alphonse walked over to her, with his bulgy body. She just stared at the floor.
"Kiku said that his head was falling off as ran walked away. She told the police, and she figured out that the man was Michael Coyk. He was a truck driver, and was stopping at a club for some fun. And she was just walking by." Mustang said.
"He must of found the wrong fun." Ed said as he got up. He motioned for the suit to get up and come with him.
"Wait! I want to come with you!" Kiku yelled as she got up to go with them.
"Why? You don't know what we're going to do when we get there!" Ed retorted as he turned to face her. Kiku stepped out the door, and walked towards Alphonse.
"Your the Full Metal Alchemist! You should understand! Please let me join you! I know those streets like my own life! When you get there, its like a maze there. Please!" Kiku pleaded, with her hands up to her face, like she was praying.
"Hold on, I'm not the Full Metal Alchemist! He is!" Alphonse said, pointing at Ed. Ed had turned red with anger, and was already yelling no.
"But Ed, she was the one who helped us!" Alphonse told Ed, who was still red. Ed was walking out the door with Kiku still standing in front of Alphonse. she looked at the suiot of armor, and the armor just nodded.
"Don't listen to him, he's just mad that you mistaken him for the Full Metal Alchemist. Don't be so hard on yourself." Alphonse said to Kiku, holding out his hand for her to hold it. Kiku was looking at the floor, and suddenly just kept going.
