Chapter 2: Allies

Disclaimer: I don't own Full Metal Alchemist, though I wish I did...

Hello my loyal readers! Here's chapter 2! ENJOY!

"We'd better keep moving." Said Harry. "That thing might come back."

"Hey, you guys don't mind if I tag along do you?" asked Ed. "It's just that I don't know this place very well.

"Of course you can." Said Harry. 'If this guy can fight that well, he may be useful toward Voldemort.' Thought Harry. "I'm Harry by the way. And this is Ron and Hermione."

"Nice to meet you. Say, you guys look terrible. What have you been up to? It looks like you haven't slept in days!" said Ed. "Why don't you guys get some rest and I'll keep watch."

"No, It's okay, really." Said Hermione, still not fully trusting Ed. "Suit yourselves. At least let me make you something to eat." Said Ed with a smile. "Thanks! I'm starving!" said Ron. Ed just smiled. "I'll be right back." He went off into the woods.

About 15 minutes later, he came back with a bag full of firewood and some other things. "Okay. Here goes!" He clapped his hands and a blue light glowed brightly. When the light faded, there was 4 cups of coffee and 4 cups of bread. "Ron, could you start a fire for me? We got to cook these fish somewhere." Said Ed pulling out 4 small fish from the bag. "HOW THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT!" shouted Ron. Harry and Hermione were dumbfounded and thinking the same thing. "Like I said before, Alchemy." Said Ed.

Ron was still shocked as he walked over to the bag. A he tried to lift it up, he found that it was very heavy. He couldn't lift it.

Ed stood up and saw that Ron was having a hard time and went to help. Ed picked it up with no trouble at all and began to start a fire.

RON'S POV

That bag must have been at least 100 lbs! Yet he picked it up with such ease. Who the hell is this guy and who was that walking palm tree?

HERMIONE'S POV

Wow! Ed's SOOOO strong! Wait. WHAT AM I SAYING! I LOVE RON! NOT ED! AGHH!

HARRY'S POV

Alchemy…He's strong too. And he came out of nowhere. Although he smiles, his eyes look so sad. I can see it. He's seen death before. Constantly! He must have lost someone close. But who?

ED'S POV

Geez! That guy is weak…I wonder where I am? Magic? Alchemy's a dead art? Envy? Just what are they planning? Maybe I can ask them what is going on. I mean, even they can't keep me in the dark. Cant they?

There you have it! I didn't think that it would take me this long to write chapter 2. Wow! Anyway, I need ideas...Anybody?
