I hope this doesn't bore. It's a mix of the series and the manga.
Iamme14: Thank you again!! You are the best!
Annoyedbyyou: I thank you to.
Frida: I'm glad that I didn't bore you. =3
Lilypop8: I am so sorry that I haven't updated in a little while. You can see why once I'm done with the reviewer thanks. So…thank you for reviewing for such a boring story. I say it's boring cuz I'm the one writing it. =D
I thank everyone who has faved and put this on story alert. I'm so happy. I have decided to dedicate this to my grandfather. He had to go to the hospital. The doctors' say that he will be just fine, but I'm still worried about him. I hope this one doesn't bore people even more than it has.
This chapter was redone for people who have already read this chapter before the redo. Most is the same, but there is a part really different. Enjoy and don't hurt me.
At the hospital.
Jacob was asleep on Elizabeth's' heaving chest. She had, had two blood transfusions and her heart had stopped once. Jacob was reluctant to leave the hospital when his father said to come home. Alex had blamed himself for this and was vowing to never ask for chocolate milk again. Just then, her breath hitched. Jacob sprang up like a rocket and was holding her hand.
"Lizzy. You're ok. I promise." Slowly her eyes opened to show dimmed, brown, glossy looking eyes. She was there, yet her mind wasn't there. Her mouth moved, but no words came out.
"Lizzy? Are you there?"
"….M." she closed her eyes again.
"Lizzy, stay with me." Her eyes opened again at the sound. She looked desperately for the source of the sound.
"…Mom….my" Jacob patted her hand.
"Y-yes. Mommy is with you." Slowly, Elizabeth closed her eyes for the last time. Her heart rate stopped for the second time that day.
"GET ADRENALINE IN HER!!" One of the doctors outside had heard her heart stop from the monitor and was rushing in. He knocked Jacob out of the way and five more medical staff came in. They worked on her till her heart started again. Jacob left to let them be. He grabbed the FMA book and took it to the waiting room. He flipped to the last page where he had stopped. The pages had the images back. He read the mine coals part, but nothing was different. When he turned to the Hijacker part, he saw a girl in the background rubbing her foot.
"Lizzy? Is that really you?" He rubbed the picture and turned the next few pages. It showed her in the background being chased by Edward.
At East Headquarters where Ed and Roy are talking.
"You owe me big time for this one Colonel."
"You saying that makes a shiver run down my spine. (Sigh). Fine. What do you want?"
"Get right to the point don't you!? Well, I do you know anyone with specialty with biological alchemy?"
"Biological? Why? Are you in a hurry for something?"
"My arm and leg aren't just going to grow back by themselves!"
"We haven't talked for a long time. Maybe we can get you in." Mustang grabbed a file. It had Shou Tucker's photo on it, with the information on the first talking chimera. With that, he grabbed another file.
"What's that?"
"Well FullMetal, since we can't watch Elizabeth, then YOU will look after her."
"WHY ME!?"
"Don't worry. While she was knocked out, we gathered information on her. Here, take a look." Roy handed Ed the File and Ed grinned.
"Oh this is good, but did you have to put THIS in." Ed pointed to double lettered information on it.
"Could be useful, I guess. Remember, the information is looked at thoroughly."
Where Elizabeth is being held.
Pain, so much pain. It felt like someone was shocking me and sticking a needle in my heart. I open my eyes and look around. Lab men are just leaving, but one stayed looking at me. I look at myself and there were no clothes on me. I screech and sit up covering myself.
"WHERE ARE MY CLOTHES!!!?" The man points to the corner of the room and I run up to put my clothes on. Once dressed, I headed out the door to find Ed, Al, and Mustang. I had to knock out the lab man to get out though. I finally find the right room and slam the door open. There on Roy's desk is my backpack being torn apart.
"MY PACK!!" I run up and take it from them. "MEANIES!!" I hug my backpack to my chest. I zipped up it components back in. I glared at Roy and he shrugged. I then glare at Ed, who is laughing.
"WHAT'S SO FUNNY!"
"Look~!" He handed me a paper and what I saw shocked me and enraged me. There on that slip of paper were details of me.
Elizabeth…..Middle and last name unknown.
Gender – Female
Hair color – Blonde
Eye color – Brown
Height – 5'3
Age – 13 -17
Weight – 116
Shoe size – 7
Blood type – AB+
Bra size – B 34
"You looked at my breasts?" Since I WAS in the anime world, I guessed that my hair was sticking out of place. My face must have been white. Roy then snatched the file from my hands and shoved it in his desk. I was still in the same position that I was in since I held the information.
"~What's wrong Elizabeth?~ Embarrassed?~" I turn to Ed and glared daggers at him.
"HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF THAT HAPPENED TO YOU!!!?" I ran at him and smacked his face with my sketch book. He fell backwards and had a large red mark on his cheek.
"WHY THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT!!!?" I stuck my tongue at him and went back to my backpack and pulled out my CD with the song Faint by Linkin Park.
"What's that?"
"Shut up Mustang. This is my stuff and not yours. Leave me alone." I pressed the play button and nothing came on. I slammed my finger into the button and still no song came on. I got mad and slammed it to the ground, breaking it in the process.
"What was that?"
"SHUT UP EDWARD!! LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!" I flung the pieces at him. I was wondering why I had the desire to kill someone. I stopped throwing when blood came out of my mouth. I fell to the floor holding my throat. Ed and Roy came running up while I was gagging. I felt sudden pressure on my chest and needle stings in my arms. Slowly, the blood was pouring out. I collapsed to the ground and Roy picked me up before I fainted.
'Where am I?' I tried opening my eyes, but I wasn't able to.
'GET A MEDICAL SURGEON IN HERE!! SHE HAS A COLLAPSED LUNG!!' A WHAT!!? I was just fine a minute ago. I tried opening my eyes, but when I did…..I saw red everywhere.
'HEY!! SHE'S AWAKE!!!'
'WELL GET HER ASLEEP AGAIN!! SHE NEEDS SURGERY TO REPAIR HER RIBS AND LUNG!' I look to my left and see a door open. Jacob comes running in.
'Jac…..ob……ple…ase!' I moved my needled arm and reached it toward him. I could see tears forming in his eyes and I felt mine do the same. A doctor had jabbed me with a shot filled with a cerium. I felt sleepy, and before I completely went off, I heard Jacob screaming at the doctors to help me.
"HEY! WAKE UP DAMN IT!" I felt a hand swat my face. My eyes shoot open to see Roy looking in my face and Ed having his hand in the air from slapping me. I sit up and rub my cheek, feeling a tear there. I sniffed and pulled my legs to my face, burying my face in my arms to cry. I felt Roy's arm go behind me and pull me into an embrace. I cried in his shoulder.
"Elizabeth…..What is going on?!" I knew that it was an order from the damn colonel. I look up at him with streams on my cheeks. I felt a throbbing pain in my chest and a snap. I screamed in Roy's chest hoping it would go away.
"DAMN IT GIRL!! TELL US WHAT IS GOING ON WITH YOU!!?" I look up Ed and his face is full of fear.
"I-I……w-w-w-want to go home……w-w-with J-J-Jacob." The pain subsided and I relaxed in Roy's arms. He lifted me up and sat me on his desk. Ed was looking worried at me. I gave him a quick smile, and then I noticed the file by my hand. I picked it up and read it out loud.
"Shou Tucker. The sewing life alchemist. The one who made a human speaking chimera."
"Are you interested in alchemy?" I look at Ed. I nodded a little then looked at Roy.
"2 years ago, Shou made a human speaking chimera, but only spoke once. It said, 'I want to die.', and a few days later, it died. It had stopped eating and was in pain. The poor thing."
"How did you know that? That's not in the file." I grinned at Roy and pointed at him.
"Equivalent Exchange. I'll let you in a little secret, but you have to help me get home."
"Well where do you live?"
"Not here of course. I live on the other side…..before it's too late." I look at my feet and swing them. I felt normal again.
"The other side? YOU MEAN OTHER SIDE OF THE GATE!!!?" I grinned at Ed and nodded. Ed came up and grabbed my tank top. I pushed his arm from me.
"Oh, did I ever mention the metal arm and soul, Ed?" Ed's eyes were filled with shock and Roy pushed him out of the way and he grabbed my shirt and held me up. I grinned wider and started whistling.
"H-How do you know about Al?" I look at Ed and smile.
"What do I get in return? OH! How about you teach me about alchemy. Deal?" Ed reluctantly nodded and I kicked Roy in the face, landing on my hands. I hand walk over to my backpack and pull out a FMA book.
"This-" I held the book for all to see. "- is how I know. It's blank since I came here, but it was a book about all of you, and I seem to have been sucked in it. I wonder how my friend's will react to this." I danced back over to Ed and showed him the torn CD. "This used to work in my world, but here it is just as useless as this shoe." I pointed to my torn shoe. They were badly scuffed up and had my friends' names all over it.
"A-A book? About our lives?"
"Yeah…. You should see the stuff in 2008. It is so freaking amazing. Cars, Cd's, new music, and my favorite…book stores at ever corner where I live." I stared out the window, caught up in my memories. I remembered Jacob always taking me to a book store, walking me to school, beating up bullies, and singing lullaby's to me. I felt a tear run down my face. I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned to see Ed smiling.
"What's with the smile? It's scaring me, Edward."
"So we're part of a book."
"And series. I just watch every show, except the episodes 29 – 38. Why?"
"Well….do we ever get our bodies back?"
"I…..can't say. I can't tell you, cuz I really don't know. I know, but I don't know what would happen to the story line….so I can't tell you. But I do have to say one thing…..Alphonse is still happy that you are with him….don't forget that." Ed looked off guard and I go up to him and playfully slap him. I rub my new tears away from my face and head over to the couch and lay down. I closed my eyes and I heard Roy telling Ed to take me with him to Shou's house. I snap my eyes open. Ed looked worried for once and I was trying not to cry. I had always cried when Nina had died.
"Elizabeth, do you know something about Shou Tucker that we don't?" I look at Roy and wipe my tears off.
"No. I don't know him that well, but I can tell you that….someone……so precious, will leave you." I smile sadly before turning my head into the couch. I silently sobbed. What would happen to Nina? Will she be killed in the alley way, or in the one building? I got up and grabbed my sketch book and started doodling. My art came out as a fox and it was time to head to the house. We got into the car and drove to the mansion.
"We're here. Well hurry up you three." I glared at Roy, hating him for dragging me into this groggy day. It was a little cloudy, but wasn't as bad as the days before. A giant white dog had pounced on me and Ed. I got the end with the tail beating my face. A little girl came running out.
"You know that's bad Alwexander." The little girl known as Nina came out and started laughing. This was going to be a long few weeks. I walk into the house to see Shou Tucker working on a book.
"WHAT CHA DOIN!!?" He jumped and I laughed.
"Please don't scare me. I see you came with the other two?"
"That be correct." I kicked one of my legs back and forth. Shou shrugs and goes back to work. I jumped when I felt someone jump on my legs.
"WANNA PLAY BIG SISTER!!? I'M NINA!!"
"Yeah…whatever. Big sister needs to find a little brother of mine."
"Little big brother your brother?"
"Yes and no. He acts like I should keep him from…..stuff….and He will act like an adult sometimes." I couldn't bring myself to say danger. Ed could be so stupid at times. I walked out of Shou's study room and went to Ed and Al with Nina holding on my leg and Alexander following. Ed looked like his brain was going to explode.
"So Ed…..are you going to teach me alchemy?"
"Later."
"Fine, but remember equivalent exchange." He glared at me and I stuck out my tongue.
"Hey Elizabeth."
"YESH!?" I turned to Al and returned my tongue back to my mouth smiling. Nina hopped off and ran to Al. Al picked her up and put her on his shoulders.
"You want to go outside and play with me and Nina?"
"WOOF!"
"And you to Alexander."
"Nah. I'm good. I can stand to stay in here. I waiting for when Ed's head explodes from too much knowledge."
"You don't want to play?" I look up to see Nina on the verge of crying.
"I don't think I can, well I don't think I…OK."
"YAY!! LET'S GO PLAY!!" Al ran out the door with Alexander following. Somehow that big dog got under me and I was hanging on for dear life. He ran out the door with me on his back. Alexander stopped and I went flying into a tree. I landed on my face and I got a bloody nose.
"YOU OK BIG SISTER!!?"
"I'M FINE NINA!! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE FOR A MINUTE!" I sat there and Alexander came up to me and licked away the blood.
"Alexander is worried about you Big Sister."
"Well I don't like it." Alexander kept licking my face. "Stop it." He didn't stop. "I SAID STOP IT ALEX!!" I stopped and dropped my hands from my face. Alexander was whimpering. I was looking at nothing. I felt a tear escape my eye and I curled into a ball.
"ARE YOU ALRIGHT ELIZABETH!?"
"BIG SISTER!!"
"WOOF!" Alexander was barking nonstop. He ran inside and in a few minutes had Ed running after him. Alexander stopped in front of me. Ed came running up and knelt down to my size.
"Elizabeth." I was closing my eyes.
"Elizabeth!" He grabbed my shoulders and shook them. I looked at him and more tears came out.
"WHAT IS WRONG ELIZABETH!!?"
"EDWARD!" I leaped into his chest and started crying. Ed was frozen solid. I hugged him closer till I was sore in the chest.
"I WANT TO GO HOME!! THIS PLACE DOESN'T HELP ME SINCE THEIR DOG HAS THE SAME NAME AS MY LITTLE BROTHER!! I WANT OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!!" I was sobbing again. I had never cried so much in my life, except when my mother had died. Nina came running up and I hugged her instead. My was clenching my teeth so I wouldn't cry as much, but that was unsuccessful.
"Big Sister doesn't like Alwexander?"
"NO IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!! IT IS JUST TOO HARD NOT TO REMEMBER MY LITTLE BROTHER!" The sobs came back. I was shaking violently. I felt Al pick me up and take me to Nina's room. It had drawings of Alexander, She, Shou, and what looked like her mother. There was a picture of her mother to. I jump out of Al's arms and jumped to the picture. I was done crying and the picture showed a smiling young woman with long brown hair and blue eyes.
"Is this Nina's mother?"
"Yes that's my mom." I look at the door and there is Nina looking sad.
"She is gone isn't she?"
"Mom left two years ago. She didn't want to be with daddy." I get off her bed and held out my arms. She came running up and went into my arms. I heard her crying. I rocked her back and forth. "It's ok Nina."
"I wish she didn't go to her parents house." She sniveled. I patted the back of her head and brought her away from me.
"Want to write a letter to her?"
"Ok." I smiled and grabbed her hand. I knew the letter wouldn't reach her mother, but her thoughts could. I felt that we had made a connection. We wrote the letter and gave it to Shou. HE was eyeing me and I glared.
"Make sure that gets to her mother's house by end of night." He nodded and was about to leave before I stopped him. "Shou…. Let me have a word with you. Nina, can you go play with Al and Ed. I'll be in there in a few minutes." Nina nodded and ran for the front door.
"What do you want Elizabeth?"
"I know what you did. You can't hide anything from me." I sat down at the kitchen table and pointed to the other chair across the table. He sat down and I cracked my fingers.
"What do you know."
"OH just about everything. What happened to Nina's mother, the chimera, and what you are planning."
"I'm not planning anything."
"I know you don't know it yet, but you will know in a little bit. I'll just say this quick and short. When you do, do it then you will get a world of pain. Just a warning." I left the kitchen and went to Nina, Al, and Alexander who was on top of Ed. The next few days were just the same as today. Studying, Playing, Confusions, and of course… Ed getting toppled by Alexander. Then THAT day came. The worst of all. The cloudy day.
"It's going to rain for sure." I heard Ed say. I was walking slowly behind the two.
We went into the house to search for Shou. We found him in the lab. Then everything went so fast. Ed knelt by the Chimera. It was trying to speak and I was glaring at Shou.
"Big…..brod…der."
"Can I ask you something Mr. Tucker?"
"Yes you can Edward."
"When was the last time you made one of these human speaking chimeras?"
"Two years ago."
"And when did your wife die?"
"Two years ago. What are you getting to?"
"Where did Nina and Alexander go!!?" Everyone, but me went into shock. I held my head down and Nina came over to me and licked my hand. It felt so wrong, but I knew she was worried. I knelt down to her and hugged her. Ed was now beating up Tucker and Nina was whining.
"Don't look sweetie. It's not going to be pretty."
"Big…..brod…..er." I held her tighter and Alphonse had stopped Ed, when the Grant (also know as crazy moustache guy) came busting through the door. He was speaking Ed and I was being escorted with Tucker and Nina. They stuffed me into the car with them. I wondered why they were taking me.
"Nobody understands." I look at Tucker and he is looking at Nina. The car shook and it fell down. The door had opened and Nina had ran out to the streets. Ed was ahead of me and Al when I had gotten out.
"This is bad, this is so bad." I was saying this the whole way. I remembered the gut retching feeling when the showed Nina was being disemboweled. Her inside exploding out onto the alley way wall. I ran faster and past Ed. I got to the scene first and fell to my knees. Scar was just then destroying Nina. I ran for him.
"DON'T DO IT!" Too late. Her insides went everywhere. Her blood splattered on my face and I fell down on my stomach, screaming in sadness. Scar passed me, running away from the scene.
"DO YOU SEE HER!?"
"NO ED! DON'T LOOK!" Ed turned and was scarred stiff. "I warned you." I dropped my head to the ground. I was crying more than the show. I had her blood on me and her eyes were locked onto me before she died. Ed ran up to the blood smears and was hanging his head. I backed away to Al. I grabbed his arm and leaned into him. I heard Ed crying. I hated seeing him so sad. He was normally brave and strong, but this was different. I had streams going down my face and was choking. That's when I heard cars pull up. I turned to see Roy.
This chapter was redone cuz it went to fast. DON'T TAKE MY STRAWBERRY CAKE IF YOU HATE THE REDO!!! It just gave more detail instead of Nina and I were friends……(Blah) (Blah) Nina dies in 15 seconds thing. So if you don't like then….DON'T TAKE MY STRAWBERRY CAKE!!
