The Iron Blade Alchemist
Chapter 2: Central
Mika: Ello again! Well people if you guess that Winry was Chris' mom then….your…..wrong! Just Kidding!. Of course Winry is her mom! I don't own anyone except my made up people that you will find, so far you only know of Chris, and Dalla, but there will be more and I do own them. Yet I don't own the real peoples from FMA. So I disclaim them, so me no own you no sue! Anyway I'm sure you want to hear me dribble on and on but now you get to read about the next chapter! So please read on…
"Chris!" Winry's voice echoed threw out the auto-mail house.
"Edward! Get up! Its almost 1:00!" No response, she sighed those two are just too much alike.
"Don't make me come up there!" She got a grunt from Ed's and her room but that was all. She shook her head she hated having to use extreme force but this was drastic measure. She ran up stairs and open up their room's door. Ed was sprawled across the bed his head hanging over on side and his feet over the other, his head was upside down and drawl was coming out of his mouth.
"Ed! I'll ask you once more to get up!" A moan and a grunt came from his mouth but that was it.
"Alright that's it Ed!" She walked up to him and hit him on the head with one of her wrenches. This got a more extreme reaction.
"Winry! What the hell did you do that for!" He yelled as he rubbed his throbbing head with his auto-mail arm.
"What was that for! Its 1:00 and your not even up yet!" He glanced at the clock.
"Your right it is." She sweatdroped Ed would never change no matter how old he got.
"I'm going to wake up, Chris and we're all going to Central." Ed groaned.
"Awww.. But I just got back from there!" Winry twitched
"Yes, but Conhan, Roze, and Mattie are already there." This got a strong reation.
"What? You let Mattie go on his own?" Winry looked at him like he was an idiot.
"Do you really think I would let my 11 year old son go to central with just Conhan and Roze?" Ed wondered for a moment.
"Well I guess not… But then how did they get there?" Winry smiled.
"Al took them."
"What! You let Al take my son to Central!" Winry angrily twitched.
"Well if you would get out of bed at the right time, then we could have all gone! Now we're going to all get dressed and have breakfast and then we are all going to the station!" Ed shrunk back into their bed; she was so scary when she was mad.
"Ok… I'll get dressed…" Winry smiled at him and kissed him on the cheek.
"Good I want to get there in time before the big sale on new auto-mail parts closes!" Her eyes twinkled in happiness.
"You will get me what I want wont you Honey?" Her eyes hardened and a hand reached for a wrench. Ed got off the bed and turned to the dresser to get some clothes out and mutter something.
"What was that Ed?" Her hand was going to pull the wrench out but Ed quickly spun around.
"Nothing sugar bum! All I said was what ever you want you can have it!" His auto-mail scratched the back of his head. She eyed him but shrugged and went to Chris' room.
The situation in there wasn't any better than in Ed's room. She was in the same position and had saliva hanging out of her mouth like Ed. She was even wearing striped boxers like Ed. The only difference was that she was a girl of 12 so she was wearing a strapy top, and Dalla was sleeping on top of her chest. Winry looked at her daughter she looked so much like Ed, and she enjoyed the same things he did like alchemy. And she hated the same things he did like milk. She unfortunately even had an auto-mail right arm like her father. It didn't happen the same way of course, but it was still ironic. It had happened in a train crash when she was only 8 and her brother was 7. The train was on the wrong tracks and the tracks it was on were broken and the train flipped a rolled down a mountain and crashed in to some trees. Ed had smashed his auto-mail into pieces that day trying to save them.
Flash Back
"Ed. What was that?" Winry heard screeching of brakes.
"I don't know, but it didn't sound good. Winry stay here with the kids. I'm going up front." And he started to walk up the isles.
"No! Stay here something might happen to you!" Winry cried as she held his real arm close. He looked at her and his two kids, she was right they needed him.
His eldest, Christie was wearing black shorts and a black sleeveless shirt and a red short-sleeved jacket over it. Her blond hair short like his when he was younger she was also wearingblack sandals like the kind when he was little. Her amber eyes were wide in fear.
He looked at his son Matthew. Or as they called him Mattie. He had chestnut hair, which was ruffled; his brown eyes were full of tears as he held on his older sister. He was wearing white shorts, a white sleeveless shirt and a blue-sleeved jacket. He was also wearing black sandals. He nodded and sat down with his family.
He was about to tell them that it should be okay for now when all of a sudden the train lurched and the sound of twisting metal was heard through the mountain range. The train slid onto its side and the train started to move down the mountain fast. Ed grabbed his kids and then Winry and put his back against the side of the train that was screeching down the mountain. His auto-mail was being scratched away, and his skin was burning. Christie's arm curled around her father's back. Bad idea, for then her arm was being scratched away by the train's side. The same thing happened to Mattie except he had his leg wrapped around his dad. And his leg was just being ripped to shreds. They thought that they might die that day. Butthatthoughtwas stopped half way though because the train crashed into some trees. The sudden stop made Christie lurch out of the window, Ed tried to stop her from going by grabbing the stub at her elbow, but the trains motion was to strong and Ed was left holding Christie's elbow to her shoulder. The crying of people and children could be heard from anywhere that day.
So many people lost their lives. The Elric family was one of the lucky families that didn't lose anyone in that horrible accident. When the train had stopped enough for him to be able to get out of the train, Ed leapt out and raced to Christie's prone body. Blood was everywhere, there was no way you could step somewhere and not have your boot touch blood. He knelt down and cradled her in his arms with only one arm because his auto-mail had been completly scratched away. He raced to the near by town that luckily had a hospital. It was less than a quarter of a mile. By the time he got there Christie was going pale from blood loss. She was lucky; the doctors were not busy, so they there cleaned to cuts and wrapped her up. A few more minutes later Winry burst through the doors to the hospital with Matthew unconscious from blood loss. Ed thought, he must have fainted from fright, but then he saw Winry's tear streaked face and blood all over her. He looked down at his son and ran to him. Matthew's leg was gone from the knee down. The doctors did the same for Matthew, cleaned the cuts and bandaged him. Winry hadn't been hurt badly, only some scratches and bruises that would heal in time. Ed had many cuts, and bruises everywhere, his auto-mail leg was about to brake, and he didn't even have a right arm auto-mail anymore. Winry leaned her head on his real shoulder and closed her eyes.
"So I guess its back to Resembool for auto-mail fix ups." She mearly nodded. Her world has changed; her young children both lost a limb. She looked up at Ed; his amber eyes glittered with new tears.
"You know I thought I'd lost her, for a minute there." She wiped away his tears.
"But we didn't we still have them both."
End of Flashback
Winry refocused her eyes, she had lost herself in though for a minute there, but she had to remember why she had run up here in the first place.
"Chris! Wake Up!" No change.
"Christie Marrie Elric!" She screamed, no change, well unless you count a grunt and a moan. Dalla was up though she had jumped off Christie and was quivering in a nearby corner.
"That's it!" Winry yelled as she hit her only daughter around the head with a wrench, not as hard as with Ed, but hard enough to wake her up.
"Mom! What the hell did you do that for!" She yelled as she rubbed her throbbing head with her auto-mail arm. Winry sighed she way too much like her father.
"We're all going to get up and eat breakfast, then we're going to meet uncle Al and Aunt Julia at Central." Her eye's lit up.
"Alright!" She pumped her arms in the air and shoved her mom out of the room while she got dressed. 15 minutes later they were all down stairs getting breakfast ready.
"I'm going to go and pack for everyone since I already ate and you two can eat breakfast. Can I trust you two to eat the right meals?" She eyed them both, when they grinned she sighed and when to the kitchen to get them breakfast. It was going to be a long day.
