We Meet Again
By MeganTheNerd
Hello my little kiddies! I'm starting this story because I have made the decision to delete my other story, The Convention of Connections. I'm kind of sad, but the story was a little off from what I wanted it to be so I stopped writing it. Oh well, out with the old and in with the new, right?
Disclaimer: I don't own FMA, I just own the people and plot that I made up. That includes bad guy number 1.
BTW: This story is set 2 years after the FMA movie and Ed and Al are still in Germeny. I just thought that it would help it not be confusing in the beginning.
-----------------------------
"Brother, you didn't have to be so hard on them," Alphonse said as he followed his brother out of the restaurant they were just thrown out of.
"It's not my fault that they can't listen to customers!" Edward responded, "I had every right to yell at them."
"But you ordered something you knew you wouldn't like."
"No, the waitress just can't hear. I said that I wanted the stew with milk and she gave me the stew and a glass of milk!"
"You could have been more specific," Alphonse replied as they turned the corner into an alley.
"Whatever, Al. Let's just get back to the apartment, I'm tired after all that yelling," Ed said.
Suddenly, the brothers were surrounded by a gang of scruffy looking teenagers.
The eldest of the teens stepped forward. "You look like you got a few extra bucks to spare, mid handing them over?" he said with a menacing tone.
"Sorry, but I would like to keep my money," Edward said with a smirk.
"I wasn't talking to you, shrimp," the teen said.
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING A SHRIMP YOU PUNK ASS! I'M THE OLDER BROTHER!" Ed screamed at the top of his lungs. Al sweat dropped.
The teen shrugged. "Whatever, Shorty, I tried to be nice. Go ahead guys."
One of the surrounding teens leaped at Alphonse, who easily sidestepped and kicked the guy into a pile of trash bags. Then the rest of them attacked. Ed and Al soon found out that the rest of them were a lot better that first guy. After they knocked out about 3 guys, the rest started to pull out knives.
Ed and Al were back to back with about 10 guys surrounding them. All they guys attacked at once and separated the brothers. 4 attacked Alphonse and 6 went after Ed. Alphonse was finished with all his guys in about a minute, but Ed wasn't as lucky. One of the guys had tripped him and once he was on the ground the rest of them assaulted him.
While this was going on, the first guy was waking up to find himself lying in a pile of trash. He stood up, pulled out a gun, and aimed at Ed. Alphonse saw him and without thinking tried to transmute the ground in between Ed and the shooter. To both Ed and Al's shock, there was a bright alchemic light.
They both blacked out soon after.

I just love cliffhangers, don't you? :3
I promise to finish the next chapter sometime in the next week!
BTW: I'm sorry that I made Ed kind of suck in the fight, but it made Alphonse look kind of bad ass and I like my Alphonse to be bad ass.
