Disclaimer: I dont own the characters of Fma or Hp. However, Ravyn is made up by myself, as is Chandra. Thanks.

Authors note: Its either type up chapter two, or sit and work on Lord of the Flies, no offence, but I hate that book. So, chapter two, I dont much care for describing things like buildings and people, I give a few rough outlines and you can use your imagination from there. And if you havnt already realized it, Roy and Ravyn hate each other. Alright so read, review, and enjoy. Later!


Of magic and alchemy

chapter two

Travel and Meeting


continued from last chapter...


Ravyn rolled her eyes at the 'unfortunate enough' part. "Malfoy?? That is the weirdest last name I've ever heard!" She told the colonel straight faced.

"Well, I'm sure they think 'Radeux' (rah-doh) is strange as well." Roy shot back.

"What about 'Mustang'??" She smirked. "Thats a friggin' horse breed!"

"You two quit it!" Riza interjected. "We're at the train station." She pointed out calmly.

Ravyn sighed as she got out of the car at the all-to-familiar train station. She shook her fist in frustration, seven in the morning and he was already pissing her off. That had to be an all time record! Roy and Riza got out of the vehicle as well and took her stuff out of the trunk of the car. (a/n: haha took the trunk out of the trunk! Sorry, continue). Then they purchased their tickets and boarded the train, Ravyn dragging the trunk behind her.

"Piece of shit." She muttered as the trunk bumped around.

"You shouldnt talk to yourself, people will think your crazy." Roy sat down in one of the seats. Riza sat beside the colonel, right by the isle.

'I was talking about you. Lets annoy mr. im-so-cool-cuz-im-an-old-fart-who-thinks-he-knows-everything.' Ravyn thought with a slight smirk. "Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a white room, it was round. I peed in the corners, but in the corners there were rats. I hate rats, they make me crazy. Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a white room, it was round. I peed in the corners, but-"

"Quit that!" Roy barked in annoyance.

Ravyn laughed at his anger, thats what she'd wanted all along. To piss the colonel off. She stared out the window as the train lurched to a start, her mind on other things besides the scenery. After about twenty minutes or so Roy got extremely bored and decided to fall asleep with his mouth partially opened.

"Riza, dont you ever get tired of watching out for him?" She pointed to the colonel.

"Not really." Riza responded shortly.

"So, when you guys gonna get married?" Ravyn laughed.

Riza glared at her, with her peircing redish-gold orbs. "What?" She asked calmly.

'A tad bit touchy if you ask me...' "Uhm, nothing! Nevermind!" Ravyn scratched the back of her head with one hand, laughing nervously.


The rest of the train ride went by in relative peace. Relative-as in Ravyn and the colonel only fought four times in a twelve hour period. That was due to the fact that Roy slept most of the time. Finally the train lurched to a stop and they got off, Ravyn again dragging the annoying trunk behind her once again. Outside the trainstation Riza hailed a taxi, and they piled into the back.

"Where to?" Said the grubby looking driver gruffly as he turned to them, his cigarette sticking out of the corner of his mouth.

"The corner of fifty-first and oak." Roy replied curtly.

"Thats a pretty ritzy part of town you know. What're you gonna do there?" The driver babbled.

"Business." Ravyn rolled her eyes.

After that everyone went silent. The driver because he had to concentrate on the road, and the other three because they were suspicious of everyone. Honestly, who knew what the driver did on his down time? Ravyn thought the taxi driver could be a spy, driving was a perfect cover for gaining information. Sneaky. Ravyn amused herself with the thought of the driver's secret spy life until the taxi finally lurched to a stop at the corner. The three militants piled out of the taxi, Riza paid the driver, and he drove off.

"Creepy little man." Roy muttered dragging Ravyn's trunk because she absoloutly refused to carry it anymore.

Currently they were walking down the busy street, passing by many expensive shops and restaurants. They were in a large city somewhere in Europe.(a/n I dont feel like being specific..sorry.)

"Where are we going?" Ravyn asked.

"We're meeting Mrs. Malfoy , and her son at a restaurant. There, we'll all discuss things over dinner, and then Riza and I will head back to Central." Roy explained.

"Where at?"

"Somewhere."

"Where?"

"Somewhere."

"Where?"

"Right here!" They had stopped in front of a nice little restaurant. (not super fancy, and not fast food either.)

Ravyn looked at the building, it was a dark green with a few flecks of paint beginning to peel off of the corners. She shrugged "interesting." Sighing, she followed Mustang and Hawkeye inside. Roy said something to one of the staff members and they were led to a table private table near the back. This table was of a fair size with surround seating, rather than individual chairs. There was a large red curtain that served as a sort of wall from the rest of the restaurant, one which was currently open.

One of the servers came up to them, with her dark hair tied back in a high ponytail. "Would you like to order now, or wait for the rest of your party?" She smiled sweetly.

Roy smirked that trademark smirk. "No thanks, we'll wait." The serving girl nodded and walked off, closing the curtain as she left.

"She's way to young for you Mustang." Ravyn muttered.

Roy was right about to open his mouth to reply when the curtain was drawn open. In walked Mrs. Malfoy and, of course, her son. "Why hello," Mrs. Malfoy spoke cautiously, " You must be Miss Hawkey, Mr. Mustang, and Ravyn." She pointed at each of them in turn.

"Absoloutly right, please have a seat." Roy gestured happily. The two of them sat down at the table as well.

"And you are Mrs. Malfoy I presume?" Riza asked politely.

"Why yes, oh, and this here is my darling son, Draco." Mrs. Malfoy gushed delightedly.


Soon the serving girl came back and they all ordered their food. The adults talked amongst themselves whilest Ravyn and Draco sat there, bored to the extreme. Ravyn looked over to the Malfoy heir, he looked just as bored as she felt.

"So what kind of stuff do you like to do?" Ravyn asked Draco in an attempt to break the ice, an relieve her boredom.

He looked at her, a slight frown flicked across his face. "Normal stuff." He replied shortly.

Ravyn rolled her eyes, this wasnt getting anywhere. "Cool, so what do you consider 'normal'?"

"Sports."

"Like?"

"..."

"I'll keep asking until you give me a straight answer."

He gave a huff. "Sports, like Quidditch."

Ravyn frowned. "Quidditch? Whats that?"

Draco looked astonished. "You've never heard of it?"

"Uh, no. Should I have?" she was so confused now.

"Yes."

"Oh, well would you mind explaining it to me then?"

Draco's eyes lit up. "Mind? Not at all." And he began to explain to Ravyn the complicatedness of Quidditch and the rules and everything. He also told her about the different teams, especially his, and a whole bunch of other stuff. The waitress came back with everyone's food just as Draco finished. "I think that does it."

"Wow, that sounds like the coolest sport ever!! I cant wait to watch you guys play!" Ravyn told him genuinly interested.

"Oh right, your transfering to Hogwarts arn't you?" Draco began to eat.

Ravyn picked up her fork. "Yeah actually, but my other school wasnt as cool as yours sounds like!"


An hour or so later, they finished up at the restaurant and Ravyn and Draco were still chatting aimably. By now Ravyn had already given Draco the nickname of Draxx, and to him she was Rave. Riza and Roy were getting a taxi to head back to central because, you know, they have important business matters to deal with.

Ravyn ran over to Riza and Roy. "Hey wait!" They looked at her. "I have to say bye dont I? I mean, otherwise thats not fair!"

Riza smiled. "Goodbye Ravyn, and good luck." She got in the taxi.

Roy looked at Ravyn, no smirk tracable on his face. "Report as often as possible, dont get into trouble, and have fun."

Ravyn saluted. " Later colonel." She may hate the colonel, but when saying bye you never know if you'll ever see the person again.

He laughed. "Later Soldier." He too got into the taxi and they drove off. Ravyn stood there for a second, then turned and walked back over to Mrs. Malfoy and Draco.

"Are you ready to go dear?" Mrs. Malfoy asked her politely.

"Yes, thank you."

They all got into their cab, Ravyn's evil trunk in the back, and drove off to Malfoy Mannor.


End of chapter two.

Okay so this one was kinda short too, but all my chappies are gonna be because I'm not great at writing long things. Not to mention, I get distracted pretty easily. Sorry this one took soo long. And, yeah...so far Ravyn and Draco are just friends, so far. So, tell me your thoughts at this chap, the story or whatever. Comments, suggestions, ideas for the next chap, flames, whatever you want to type up. Because I've decided I'd like at least two reviews before I start a new chapter.

Anyways, thanks for reading this.

Later.
