"Might I ask your name?"
"Alphonse Elric"
Mustang froze. He would not, Could not accept this answer. He had last seen the Elric brothers right before they had crossed the gate into the place called Germany one year ago. This man in front of him could not be the Alphonse Elric that he knew. Many people had the same name right? This must be the case. "How old are you" Roy asked tentatively.
"Seventy-eight" Alphonse answered simply. He knew that it would take a long time for Mustang to adjust to them being so much older then him. Alphonse noticed that Roy had his brothers pocket watch at his waist. Sam must have given it to him, Alphonse thought, a fitting use for it. Brother's going to freak when he sees Mustang with his watch, or, well at all.
Alphonse's thoughts were interrupted when another German accented voice came from upstairs
"ALPHONSE! What is all that noise? Don't tell me those two brats are here again!"
"Sorry to disappoint you Ojii-san, ,but we are!" Sam practically sung up the stairs, finally able to stop giggling. "We brought someone you might want to meet!"
"Stop calling me that already, I already told ya I aint your grandfather!" He snapped irritably, coming down the stairs.
"The grammar police wields guns, boom!" Rose shouted using her hands to mime shooting a gun at him. If Mustang had thought that Alphonse resembled Hoenhiem, then Ed was as much a copy of him as the homunculus's father was. Spotting Mustang, he reeled back in shock, grasping the table next to him for support
"How the hell did HE get here?!" He yelled, pointing to Mustang. "That bastard should be long dead! Don't tell me it's one of his mirror's descendants because I won't believe a single word. A sword through the eye aint hereditary."
Then Sam begun to laugh. She didn't know why, she just did. She couldn't help it, it was just that ridiculous. The way that Oji-san was glaring at her didn't phase her one bit, though if looks could kill she would be dead within a moment.
Everyone stared openly at her. Finally, she calmed herself down again when Edo-Ojii hit her halfheartedly over the head.
"Brother!" Alphonse scolded, shooting him a scandalized look.
"Haiya!" Sam yelled as she tried to hit him back, but Ed just blocked her as easily as if she were in slow motion. Sam continued trying to hit him in an amateur manner, and he continued to block her without even looking. Finally he sent her flying backwards, as Rose, who everyone seemed to have forgotten about, helped her up, Mustang only sat down.
" So, how'd you get here anyways Colonel Bastard?"
"It's lieutenant General, now" he boasted
"OK, lieutenant General bastard, you didn't answer my question, how did you get here?" He asked, seemingly not happy at his promotion.
"I don't know, I just woke up this morning in this young lady's room"
"PERV!" Yelled about four people, including Sam, simply because she liked giving him a hard time.
Ed looked at him with a disgusted face
"Geez, I knew you were bad, but you slept with her and don't even know her 's, like, 15, god, Mustang. Just how much did you drink last night?"
"None! You all have exactly the wrong idea! Nothing happened!" He yelled indignantly, pink dusting his cheeks "What's with you anyways, you know, you were there"
"Ohhhh, she was there, she knows" Rose said suggestively, looking at her friend. By now Sam was blushing too
"Shut up Rose" Sam said, looking angry and hitting Rose over the head
"Ow!" Rose cried scampering away to hide behind Aru-ojii "Save me Ojii-san! Sam's scary when she's mad!" Sam just sighed and sat down.
"So, how did you meet these too anyways?" Mustang asked, pointing to where Rose was still cowering in fear, and Sam used to be sitting but had gotten up and went to the fringe without asking , to get a drink." They seem to know the house pretty well. And they seem to know you two pretty well"
"Well, that's a really funny story actually…"
One Halloween, Sam and Rose were trick or treating.
"Hey, Sam, isn't that the house of those two old guys who moved in?" Rose asked. She was dressed a Sheiska(sp?) since she pretty much looks like her anyways.
"Yea, I wonder what's with them anyways, you don't normally have two old guys living together…Wonder if they're queer" Sam was dressed as manga Ed, complete with automail arm made out of foam that had taken her hours to make.
"Sam! That's not nice! You shouldn't judge people by their sexuality. So what if they're gay. That doesn't mean that they aren't nice people! They actually looked pretty similar, maybe they're brothers…"
"That'd make sense maybe… Still, why move here…"
"This thinking hurts my head! Let's go snag some candy!"
"Adventure yes!"(AN: if you get the reference you are awesome and I'll include you in this story in the next chapter)
Sam and Rose walked toward the old people's house and knocked on the door. Sam, instead of saying 'trick or treat' like a normal kid got out her pocket watch and prepared to say "The state alchemist of Amestris require candy for their experiments" because for some reason people seemed to give her more candy that way. The words died on her lips however when she saw who knocked on the door. It looked exactly how Sam imagined Hoenhiem if he had been real. The person behind the door stepped back too, surprised.
"Holy shit! AL! C'mere! There's a kid here who's dressed as me!" he yelled, turning toward the lit inside of the house
"What the hell are you talking about?" Sam asked with a sneer" I am the famous Fullmetal Alchemist, Hero of the people, you may have heard of me"
"He certainly has the attitude down, brother" Laughed Al as he came to the door. They both looked like Hoenhiem. Sam was creeped out.
"Wha…" She started
"Come inside, I promise we won't hurt you" Al said
"And that's how these annoying brats came into our once peaceful lives" Ed finished
"And we became best freinds!!!" Sam ended happily
