Twelve o'clock noon exactly.

Oh, Shit.

Edward Elric tore his gaze from his watch and continued his mad dash toward the docks.

"Brother! Wait up!" The younger Elric, Alphonse, called after his brother who, Alphonse noted silently, was incredibly fast for someone of such small stature.

"Hurry up, Al! We're gonna miss the boat!"

"If you got up when I told you to, this wouldn't be happening!"

"Who are you calling so short that he was too small to jump down from is bed and get ready to leave?!"

Alphonse continued running, deciding no answer was the best answer.

The boat they were to board was now in Edward's line of vision, and he cheered silently. The two boys continued running, about to reach their destination. Edward stopped right at the end of the line of people who were showing their tickets to the boat attendant and boarding.

"Yes! We made it, Al!" Ed cried victoriously.

He was about to step forward, as it was now two people away from his turn to hand in his ticket, when someone roughly shoved him out of the way, pushing him back into a pile of stacked up boxes and barrels. A few toppled over, casing an orange to roll off the box above him and hit him square on the head.

"W-What the hell!?" Ed yelled at whoever just shoved him.

A dark haired, tall (Ed noted bitterly), man arrogantly glanced over at him.

"Oh, I'm sorry," He said with feigned innocence, "you were so short, I didn't even see you there," He laughed jovially before turning back to the line and handing his ticket in. He boarded the boat with another man, also tall with dark hair and glasses. Damn tall people.

Ed was up in a minute, orange in hand, "You bastard! Don't just walk away!"

The man was already far away enough that he couldn't hear Edward anymore. More like he was completely ignoring him, but still.

Edward, peeved about the insult about his height, getting shoved, being ignored, having an orange fall on his head, then being ignored some more, threw the orange angrily in the general direction of the man. It missed completely and solemnly bounced off a wall and into the water.

Edward swore, as his last means of attack was lost.


A/N: HI THERE. Nice to meet'cha!! I'm so glad you found your way here. Okay, so I love FMA and after much plotting I decided to write this fic. Yeah. It gets stupid at points. It also gets serious as well as funny and possibly anything else. As for how soon I get these chapters up, It depends really. School will be starting soon. I will try my best to update often!

HELPFUL CRTIQUING IS NICE, BUT OMG NO FLAMING.
