-Cici's POV-
As I walked, I yawned boredly. In my view, Central was a stuffy city who was only good if you wanted to see someone in the military. I began to think of where I should start looking. I sighed when I decided that Central was the only place to look, considering it was crawling with State Alchemists.
Later on, I walked past the Central Library, and was shocked when I saw it destroyed. "WHAT THE HELL?!"
-Destroyer's POV-
Without Cici's knowing, I hid behind a near-by building, watching. I saw her, and my red eyes widened. "Cici Elric.." I whispered to myself.
I couldn't help but go into a daydream state. I remembered when I was a teenager living in Risembool, and I hanged out with, in my eyes, the prettiest girl in the world.
"Seroko, come on! Stop being such a slow poke!"
"Will you give me a break, Cici?!" Cici
grinned at me, pretending to think. "Nah!" "Oh
hardy har har!" I ran faster, then jumped and tackled her,
pinning her to the ground. I grinned now. "Got cha, Heaven's
Fallen Angel." "Hey, let me go, little Ishballan
Boy" Cici taunted. I pecked her on the lips, something
we did often, just for fun. I got off of her, and helped her up. She
brushed herself off, then grabbed the dropped picnic basket.
A
smile crept across my lips. But not a sadistic smile like usual. It
was a happy smile. I missed Cici for so long. But she'll never want
to see me now.. I sighed, then left.
-Cici's POV-
I looked at the lowly officers futilely trying to pick up the pieces of the library and repair it. I just chuckled slightly, and went over.
I was slightly surprised when I saw Lieutenant Colonel Maes Hughes there. "Oh! Hello, Lieutenant Colonel Hughes!!" I exclaimed, saluting.
"Hm? Oh, hello Cici! I woulda thought you would be on that train" Hughes said.
"Unfortunately, I have different orders from the Fuhrer. I'm to track and kill the Rouge Alchemist" I said.
"I see. I believe he's the one who did this.." Hughes muttered as he looked at the rubble.
"May I lend a hand, Lieutenant Colonel?" I suggested.
"Go ahead!" Hughes exclaimed.
I pushed past the officers, getting right infront of the rubble. I then clapped my hands and put them on the ground. Soon the library was back up and repaired. After the transmutation broke, I let out a slightly exhausted sigh. The sigh quickly turned into a cough as Lieutenant Colonel Hughes patted my back roughly.
"Great job, Cici! Looks as good as new!" he shouted. "Here's your reward.."
I went pale at those words. Just as I suspected, a picture of a young girl was shoved in my face. "Isn't she cuuuute?! This is her on the last Halloween! She's such a cute little fairy princess, isn't she?"
I simply nodded, standing up. I turned and walked away. "You're welcome for the library, Lieutenant Colonel!"
Hours later...
I suddenly bumped into someone. I flinched as we made contact, and looked up at them. It was a man with sunglasses on. I blinked. "Hello there."
-Seroko's POV-
My eyes widened behind the sunglasses as I saw her. It was the girl of my dreams. The one who I always thought had fallen from the heavens. Cici Elric..One of the only people who didn't treat me like a filthy Ishballan. "Hello.." I said as I looked down at her. She was still 3 inches shorter than me. I looked lower, and was shocked to see a silver chain coming from her pocket. SHE BECAME A STATE ALCHEMIST?!?!?!
Cici held out her hand. "I'm Major Cici Elric, the Metal Eye Alchemist. And you are..?"
I slowly took her hand and shook it. So the rumors are true..She does have metal limbs...And I bet her eyes are automail too. I pulled her into the alleyway we were near. "I'm Seroko."
Cici's eyes widened, and her sunglasses fell down to the tip of her nose. "Ser..oko...?"
I nodded. "Long time no see, Angel." I smirked slightly at the dumbfounded look on her face.
"Um..I'm sorry..I gotta go, I have a mission to find the Rouge..."
I interrupted her. "Surprise."
Cici looked not only scared, but disappointed and sad. Then, she fainted. I quickly caught her, then chuckled and walked off with her unconscious body.
