Ed

"Hey Auntie," someone said, walking into the bar I was in. There was only one person I knew who called the bar owner that. I glanced up, expecting to see Colonel Mustang. Instead, I saw a boy who looked not much older than me, returning my gaze. I chuckled to myself- it was just Mustang in some disguise. Something the bar owner said made him smile. Wait, that couldn't be right- Roy NEVER smiled, even in disguise. He came over to the table I was sitting at. Definitely not Mustang- this guy was too short.

"So I hear you're a state alchemist," he said, pulling up a chair.''

I nodded silently. Who was this kid? He looked so much like Mustang it wasn't even funny, only his hair was red, not black.

"My name is Kira, what's yours?"

That's an odd name, I thought. "Edward- Edward Elric, but you can call me Ed."

"Nice to meet you, Ed," Kira said, smiling again.

"You too. Hey, do you know Roy Mustang, by any chance?"

A look of pain crossed his face, but was quickly replaced with a smile. "Yeah, he's my commanding officer." He put his hands behind his head, and started tapping the floor with his right foot.

"Uh, cool... He's my CO too." How could this guy be glad to have Roy Mustang for a CO? I wondered.

"Awesome!" He said grinning. He stood and looked back at me. "Well, I guess I'll see you around," He said, before moving towards the bartender. "Yo, Auntie..."

Ed (later that day)

I was on the couch in Mustang's office while he did some paperwork. Why did Kira look so much like Mustang? What was his last name? Why did he call the bartender 'Auntie'? Questions were swirling around in my head. "Hey Colonel...?" I asked.

"Yes, Fullmetal?" He asked, not looking up from his work.

"I was wondering, do you have a brother?"

Mustang looked up, surprised, but quickly masked his face. "No, why do you ask?"

"It's the new guy," I said, glancing over at the Colonel.

"What about him?"

"It's just that when I first saw him, I thought it was you." I paused, then continued. "I thought you were just wearing a stupid disguise." I paused again. "You two look alot alike..."

Mustang sat in silence for a minute, then said "I don't see it," before looking back down at his paper.

"There's more, Colonel. He called the bar lady 'Auntie.'

Mustang dropped his paper, then gave me a hard look. "Are you SURE about that?" He asked.

"Yeah, and when I asked him if he knew you, he got this sad look."

The Colonel sighed to himself. Was he really planning on telling Fullmetal this? "I need to change my answer.

"Huh?" I asked, confused.

"I don't know if I have a brother or not." Damn. He WAS going to tell Ed this. "I only have memories starting after 9 years ago. The first memory I have is sitting at a kitchen table reading a letter, then telling Auntie that I was going to become a state alchemist."

"Who wrote the letter?" I asked.

"I don't know, whoever wrote it didn't sign his or her name and didn't say where exactly they were going," Mustang said.

"Do you still have it?"

Mustang didn't answer immediately. "Yeah. I don't know why, but I've kept it all these years."

"Good," I said, "Then you have a way of figuring out who wrote it."

"Hmm?"

"The handwriting. Everyone has different handwriting, like a fingerprint."

There was a knock on the office door, then Hawkeye and Kira entered. "I brought Kira, Colonel."

"Thank you, Hawkeye," The Colonel said, before the Lieutenant turned to leave.

"Thanks for everything, Riza," Kira said.

Hawkeye paused and put a hand on his shoulder. "No problem," she said, before leaving.

I stared at Kira. "You know Lieutenant Hawkeye?"

"Huh?" He asked. "Oh, yeah. Her father taught me fire alchemy," He told me, walking over to the sofa and sitting next to me. "So, Colonel, why did you bring us here?"

"We have a mission." Colonel Mustang was now in business mode again.

"The three of us?" Kira asked, smiling.

"Yes. We are going undercover to find a murderer. We will be posing as brothers. You two will be twins, and I am your older brother and guardian, as our parents are dead."

Kira's smile widened into a grin. What was he smiling about?

"Ed, your name will be Sebastian Mustang. Kira, you will be Ceil, and I am Jack."
