That's not like you!

Roy opened his eyes when he heard a knock on his door. He had been sleeping again instead of keeping the military in check.

"Come in," he said quietly still half asleep. A woman with long auburn hair came in wearing a military uniform and carrying a wad of papers.

"Just delivering finished paperwork Sir," she said

"What's with the formalities Mel?" he asked getting up from his seat and walking round to her. She blushed and replied, "It's not very professional to call you Roy-kun like at home."

"Hmm, but no one is here. . ." he said and then kissed her passionately. They stayed like that until they desperately needed to take a breath.

"You know Mel, I've also finished all my paperwork," Roy eventually said grinning. Mel knew what that meant and allowed Roy to unbutton her jacket while moving her over to the sofa.

Knock, knock, knock.

Roy looked very annoyed, "Yes? What is it?" Riza Hawkeye walked in to find Mel and Roy sitting on the couch together. "Hello Hawkeye," Mel said smugly. This was because almost everyone in the military had thought Riza and Roy would get together. Mel just liked the idea that she got there first and they were very happy. "Reporting in Sir. Jade Kinzoko has reached the place of her mission successfully," Riza eventually said professionally.

"Ok thank you. You are dismissed," was Roy's only reply. Riza looked as if she was going to protest, but left the room hurriedly.

"Now. . .where were we?" Roy questioned Mel. She did not need to answer as she knew perfectly well it wouldn't make the slightest difference. They continued to have their 'fun' on the sofa. . .

"Jade! Come back!"

"No! He went down here and I'm going to finish my mission!"

"Don't! It's too dangerous down there! JADE!"

Jade Kinzoko ignored the previous statement from Jean Havoc. Although these two had been going out for a while, Jade still had a thing for completing missions, no matter how dangerous. She continued down the back alley after the dark haired man. This man was not actually that dangerous, but she was going to the place where many Homonculi had been spotted.

Eventually she came to the end of the road and looked left and right. "Hmm, no sign of him, where did he go?" she thought

"Oh dear me! A state alchemist hanging around here by herself!" came a mysterious voice from behind. Jade turned round to see a beautiful woman dressed in all black. She had a tattoo above her left breast and dark hair fell over her perfectly sculptured face. "Homonculus!" growled Jade. "Oh very clever! You needn't know which one however," she replied casually before brandishing her long finger nails. Jade actually smirked at this, "Bring it!" she said as her ring glowed.

Havoc searched the many back alleys for Jade. He knew this mission had been a bad idea from the start, but Roy had insisted and so had Jade. They were actually very alike each other he thought to himself as he continued to run. He had almost given up hope when he heard shouts from ahead and then ran as fast as possible to where they were coming from. When he came to the clearing, it was full of black and blue blurs. Straight away he recognised Jade, and he took a sensible guess at the other being a homunculus. Havoc stayed in the corner not wanting to be noticed. He worried about Jade but allowed her to fight because he knew, although he would never admit it, that she was powerful that him. She was the Frozen Wind Alchemist, while he was just a simple lieutenant.

He watched the battle closely, trying to see who was in the better position. Jade has made her ice sword and was slashing fiercely at the homunculus, but her attacks were always blocked by those extendable spikes on the homunculus' hands. It looked as though Jade was being played with, and that no matter what she did, the homunculus counter attacked without any effort. Jade ran and did a mighty slash, causing a large cut to appear across the chest of the homunculus. She fell to the ground and Jade looked over her triumphant. Suddenly those spikes extended and slashed Jade across the shoulder. She yelled in pain and fell to the ground as the homunculus stood up, the gash not affecting her at all. At this Havoc dashed out from his hiding place over to Jade.

"Jade, Jade! Speak to me!" he desperately called to her

"Ha. . .voc?"

"Yes, I'm here it's ok,"

"Don't be too sure about that," came the voice of the woman. They both looked up at her and she stabbed Jade through the stomach. Blood spurted everywhere and Jade yelled again.

"I told you needn't know my name, but for future reference it's Lust," she said walking in the opposite direction leaving Havoc cradling the extremely injured Jade.
