Military Academy:

The Mirror

Part 1:

The Jornal

I

My story begins with a fire. This fire destroyed a building used by the military for storage of the personal files of the members of the military. They of course had copies of these files at the Military Library in Central, and it was extremely unlikely that both of these building would be destroyed. But my story is not about the files that were destroyed in the fire. This story is about the personal effects of one Nerissa Jacobis, which was found in the basement of said building. You see, the building had previously been used to house members of the military before the barracks had been built. The person in question, Nerissa Jacobis, had once lived in this build, before the war in Ishbal. She had been called away quite suddenly, and had subsequently left quite a bit of her things behind. She had been honorably discharged after the war do to injury, after which she apparently disappeared. She never came back to her previous dwelling, and so her things were still there when the fire destroyed everything but the basement.

When Col. Roy Mustang got to his desk, the box was already there. Roy stood, looking it over. There was several books about alchemy, a large book with a faded cover, on which you could see the words "The Mirror of my Life; Property of-" and then the tip of some capitol letter that could have been an "A", an "M", or an "N", what appeared to be a lamp, and an old medal.

Roy sat behind his desk. "Lt. Hawkeye, what is this?" he asked.

"Sir, it's some of the belongings that was found in the basement of the storage building. You were supposed to track down and contact the owner," she replied.

Roy frowned at the box. Why did he always have to get stuck with these pointless jobs? He sighed and folded his hands over his mouth. He raised his face and rested his hands on his chin. Then he asked, "Do we have any idea who these belong to?"

"No, sir, but I'm sure you'll figure something out," Hawkeye said. Roy sighed again and reached for the "Mirror" book. "Sir, what are you doing?" the Lieutenant asked.

"I'm looking for a signature. There might be one in one of these books." Roy opened the book, looking on the inside cover. There was a signature, all right, but there was also an inscription. The Corneal read aloud, "I always right what I see the way I see it. This book will be the mirror of my life reflecting and distorting these events. Neris-" He stopped suddenly and looked up at Hawkeye, whose eyes were wide with what must have been shock. "Nerissa Jacobis…" he finished.

"Sir, you can't be serious…." Hawkeye said quietly.

Nerissa Jacobis. The girl that had graduated head of their class in the military academy.

This is a test run. If you want it to continue, say so. Feed back…. Must have feed back.
