I must have found a great muse under my birth star, because this is the second Fanfic for the Rangers, which both are on its second chapter's. *Yeah me* =^-^=
So with only than a month away from end of the winter quarter at my school, and spring quarter being even more complicated, I've suddenly got even busier than ever. *Shakes fist at open sky* I CURSE YOU, CREATOR OF HOMEWORK AND THE MODARN EDUCATION SYSTEMS! I don't have any free time anymore thanks to you, because of all the stupid homework I keep getting….
*Yells in anger* GIVE ME BACK MY FREE TIME OR GIVE ME DEATH!
*stops ranting and continues intro*
So as usual I have to put my usual statement for a friendly reminder:
(Anyway, this is my first time writing a fanfic for the Risembool Rangers, so forgive me, if it's a little weird….and I did promise, I would write this up: as we all love writing our stories and Fanfic's as Rangers. And I'll try to update this as best I can, but I am busy with school and home. So please don't be mad if this doesn't get a lot of updates as you guys want. Were all busy in many things, but I'll try and put some spare time into this when I can.)
DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST OR THE RISEMBOOL RANGERS. I OWN NOTHING IN ANY OF MY FICS, EXCEPT FOR MY OWN IDEAS AND MY OWN CHARACTERS.
(*Fullmetal Alchemist belongs to Hiromu Arakawa-Sensei, and The Risembool Rangers belongs to the creators of the group. )
So let's continue with the show and with Chapter Two….while I get a quick snack…..
Enjoy!
CHAPTER TWO:
I woke up, grumpy as usual from another night of fighting off those damn trespassers. Almost every night, a group of wannabe military personal, trespass the land near my home, trying to use me as bait for the military.
But in the end, it just turns into a cat and mouse routine….just one big game of Tag-Demon Chase Style. Since I basically grew up in this area, I know the whole land, like the back of my hand. There isn't a foot of grass, which I don't know.
The Forest is my shelter.
The Water Glade is my Sanctuary.
The Grassy Meadow is my home.
And I will protect it, with every breath I have, until the day I die.
So the next night I went out again, hunting and running as usual…..And again those stupid idiots came back again…
But this time, they wouldn't get away easily.
After teaching those morons a very painful lesson in trespassing without permission, I headed back to my home, as I started to change into my Wolf Form. Since I was too tired to use my human legs for running, I decided to use my Wolf body, since wolves don't tire out as fast as humans do.
My tail had already started to form out, when my ears changed their shape, becoming sharper and pointier. I was summoning up my claws, when I heard a noise coming not too far from where I was.
I sniffed the air, using my sense of smell, to search for a scent. I picked up a really weird mixture coming from this scent.
It was a human scent, but it was kind of different and new to me. I caught the scent of a human male mixed with metallic's and oil.
"That's weird. Why would I smell metal and oil on a human scent?" I thought as I tried to think of a quick way to escape. I thought of running into the thick bushes for protection, since there was a lot of space for cover.
I took a deep breath, and ran with graceful speed, like the wind. I jumped into the bushes and fell hard on the ground.
As I slowly got up, I cursed under my breath, glaring at the human bear trap my leg suddenly was caught in.
I was so stupid, that I didn't look to see if there were any traps around here in this area.
I tried to pull off the trap from my leg, but it was clamped shut tightly around my ankle. As I was struggling with the stupid device, a couple of voices were coming closer to where I was.
"Did you hear that brother? It sounded like a big weird thump."
"It's probably nothing to worry about. It might have been a dog or some bear that got in a trap. You know how some people are with their hunting obsessions."
"But brother, someone might be hurt in those traps….maybe a kitten or a little puppy."
"Now why would a kitten be doing anything here….in a forest…in the middle of the night? I DON'T SEE ANY CANS OF CAT FOOD LYING AROUND HERE, YOU IDIOT!"
"Gee Ed, you and your short temper…"
"WHAT WAS THAT ALPHONSE? … NOW I KNOW YOU JUST DIDN'T CALL ME SHORT! ….. I'LL BREAK DOWN YOUR FREAKING ARMOR AND STICK THEM ON YOUR HEAD, YOU WALKING-TALKING TRASHCAN!"
"Brother, you don't mean that!"
"I MEAN EVERY WORD, SO YOU BETTER FREAKING APOLOGIZE, OR YOUR NEXT LIFE WILL BE AS A TOASTER OVEN!"
I tried hard not to laugh at these two fools, at what they were doing. This is some of the reasons why I despise humans. Always doing stupid stuff, for no reason at all.
The two brothers continued talking.
"Can't we check it out, just this once? …. We can make it real quick."
"Alright, but just this once Al."
"Yea, thank you brother!"
I stopped for a minute, realizing my fear of being discovered. I couldn't let a human discover me, not in the form I was in now.
The footsteps of the two brothers grew closer, as I edged toward the shadows of the bushes, trying to find some protection from being found.
A voice called out to where I was.
"Hello? … Anybody caught in a trap? …. Any stupid animals or people need saving? …
"Brother, not so loud! … You'll scare the kitten away."
"I'm telling you Al, there is no kitten out here…just a stupid…dumb…animal…that's probably lost."
A hand reached out for me, searching in the darkness for the trap. I slapped it away with all my might.
"Ow! …. Dammit, that hurt!"
"What happened brother?"
"Something slapped me! …. One thing's for sure….that's no animal!"
"Are you sure?"
"Positive!"
They walked closer to me, as they continued to search for me. I panicked even harder and did the one thing I told myself not to do.
I couldn't help with what I did, from the pain that was hurting my leg from the trap and the fear of being caught by humans.
I screamed. A scream of pain and terror. A wild and animal like scream unlike anything from this world.
My scream alerted the two brothers.
"Did you hear that Ed? It sounded like a person!"
"Your right! Come on Al!"
The footstep hurried fast to where I was. I raced fast, fighting with the stupid trap to let me go. I grabbed a nearby stick, as another hand reached for my hand and the stick.
I looked up at a human with blond hair and golden eyes. He looked at me and I looked at him.
I screamed at him, as he screamed at me.
I continued screaming as he fell over in the dirt.
"What the hell did you do that for? …. It's like you've never seen another human in your life!" the human boy said looking at me with a weird look on his face.
"I don't think she's scared of you Ed, just in shock." A metal suit of armor said as he walked over to the other human.
"Yea right Al, she's in shock…and scared!" Ed said arguing with the suit of armor.
I just sat there watching the two brothers fighting with each other. The suit of armor was wrong. I was scared, very, very scared.
I was so scared I started to shake uncontrollably.
The human named Ed started to notice me shaking.
"Hey… are you all right? … If you're scared of Al, I can assure you that he won't hurt you. Al is one of the gentlest people I know." Ed said in a calming voice, as he walked over to me. I continued to shake in fear.
"It's ok, no one's gonna harm you…..He started to say, as he noticed my leg caught in the trap.
"Your leg….so you were the one, in the trap. Don't worry, I'll have you out in no time." He patted my leg with his hand that was covered with a white glove.
"Don't worry, I'll be very gentle." He said, as a ray of blue light came out of his hands. I saw his arm transform into a blade.
I looked in shock as he sliced off the trap in one swift attack.
The trap fell off my leg, in two pieces without any injuries to my leg.
"There now, all better." Ed said as the made the blade disappear and his automail arm went back to normal.
"Are you all right?" he said as he held out his automail hand out to me. I was still shaking a little bit, but I grabbed his hand as he pulled me up.
My felt legs weak as I stood up to face the kind human who freed my leg. He was about my height…well maybe a tiny bit shorter than me, but still almost the same height. He wore a red coat over a black outfit. His hair was in a braid and his golden eyes were kind but with a little bit of sadness hiding in them.
"Hey are you alright? … You don't look so good." Ed asked me with a worry in his tone of voice. I didn't say anything as I started to feel very faint for some reason.
I hadn't been feeling good for most of the week, so I guess I had a cold or something when I was night patrolling a few times this week.
My head felt kind of hot and my throat felt sore.
Suddenly my knees gave out and started to fall.
I would have collapsed to the ground banging me head, if Ed hadn't raced to catch me before I fell. Ed caught me then gently placed me on the ground, making sure I wasn't hurt anywhere.
"I'm right, aren't i? … Something is wrong with you." He said as I was panting for breath and shaking again.
My fever was worse than I thought.
I felt like I was on fire all over my body.
"Hey if you can hear my voice, tell me what's wrong. I can help you, but I need to know what's wrong."
"I can't… tell you….you're not my kind.." I stammered out as I faded in and out of consciousness. "What do you mean, not your kind? Ed asked as he looked up and saw my wolf ears, which I was trying to hide in the shadows.
"What happened to you? …why do you have wolf ears?" he asked of me as I grabbed his arm.
"Don't … let them… take me away…" I said in an almost whisper like voice, as my mind grew fuzzy from a dizziness fever.
"Please…don't let…them…" I said with the last of my strength, as the darkness came over me.
"Hey, wake up! ….wake up! ….. Dammit!" Ed cursed as he tried shaking my lifeless-like body to wake up.
"Brother what happened?" Al asked with a worried look on his face.
"I don't know Al, but I think this girl is really sick and needs help. She's got a fever and wolf ears for some reason…." Ed started to say as he took the strange girl into his arms.
"But we'll deal with that later…right now, we need to get her to a hospital right away." He said to his younger brother.
"Do you think we can take her there? … they might have something for her there…" Al said to his brother.
"That might be a good idea, let's take her to the Ranger H.Q. !" Ed said as he carried the girl gently, as not to disturb her.
"I don't who you are….but I'm gonna save you! …just hang on and don't give up on me! …I swear…. I'm not gonna let you die on me!" Ed vowed to this girl as he and Al raced to their friend's headquarters with time running out.
Megan, a fellow alchemist friend of Ed and a Risembool Ranger, sat down in the cool green grass, resting from her accomplished mission that she completed a few hours ago. She was about to close her eyes, when she spied Ed and Al racing towards Ranger HQ. She sensed something was wrong, in the way they were running towards her.
"Megan, we need your help! … We found this girl, caught in a trap in the woods, but she has a really high fever…."Ed said as he carried a strange girl in his arms, who was panting really hard, and having a hard time breathing right.
"How sick is she?" Megan asked, getting up, and running over to her two friends. "I don't know, but she needs medical help right away." Ed said, looking at his friend with a worried look in his eyes. "Don't worry Ed, she'll be alright. Get her inside quickly and to the infirmary. We'll be able to help her there." Megan said, as she and Ed took the girl to the infirmary. Ed followed Megan through the halls and up a flight of stairs to the infirmary.
Once in the infirmary, Megan went over to a small laptop and made a few taps on the keyboard for a few minutes. "I just paged some of the other rangers. They'll be here to help take care of her." Megan said, as Ed situated the girl onto one of the beds.
"Hey Megan, is it alright, if I stay with her for a little bit? …. Just in case something goes wrong?" Ed asked Megan. "Sure Ed, you can stay with for a while, it's alright with me. I just have to make a quick call and I'll be right back." Megan said as she walked out of the infirmary and into the Ranger Tech Room.
She tapped on a few buttons and a shadow came onto the computer screen. "Hey it's me, Megan. Codename: Half-Metal Alchemist. We may need you back early….we kind of got ourself's into a bit of problem."
Oh I wonder what the problem can be?...
And what's gonna happen when the strange girl wakes up?...
And who was Megan talking to?...
So many questions and so many answers….
