Hello everyone! Waaaaah I want reviews but no one gives me any in this story. I get a good amount in my other one Cheeky Chimera though… T-T Is it just not good enough? I would gladly take any criticism or good reviews. If I get five reviews on this story then I will update Cheeky Chimera regardless of where I am in this story. I would like to try to finish before Halloween comes up though. Tell me what you're all going to be! I am going to be Eruka Frog from Soul Eater. She is the Frog witch with the orange Frog witch hat. If anyone recognizes me from my profile in real life just say "Hello Shadow!" I will realize where you know of me. I would like to have friends who know me from here and I am more than happy to have conversations with you all by Pm ing me. If you know any way to receive fan art online can you tell me? Do I need to have a deviant art page? I want to have a page for Cheeky Chimera of Ed in cat form as the front-page pic. Depending on if I learn how to do this though. Other than that enjoy the chapter!

Chapter 3: The Search

We looked at each other in horrified realization. Edward was a ghost. He was dead.

Ed's POV

I woke up to find myself standing in the basement. My mind was blank. I couldn't remember anything that happened since that weird chant of hers. It must have been awhile since then because the full moon was out and the sky was light with stars. I noticed a body lying in the corner, it was pale and skinny. Crimson blood covered the floor and the area around it. There were slash marks that were most likely made with a knife and the hair was pale and had splats of crimson in the dull blonde. 'WTF! That's me! But that can't be me unless…' I floated over to the body. It was in fact me. I had dull lifeless eyes but my chest rose so slightly I almost didn't notice it. My body looked lifeless. If anyone looked at it they would assume me dead instantly.

'That's not good. I leaned on the wall only to fall right through it. 'Shit. I forgot I'm a ghost.' I floated up through the ceiling looking for some way out. I tried to go t the outside of the house but every time I tried some block stopped me. I felt like there was something I needed to do. Something important, well, besides getting back in my body anyway. The array was still there so that was good. I noticed it before making my way up here on the 2nd floor. I looked around. There was a sound of footsteps coming from the first floor. I floated back down and to the front door. I heard the footsteps echoing from the kitchen. That is where I will go next.

The first thing I got was the surprised look my friends, brother and lover gave me when I announced my presence. I smiled. Not a crazy one, a sad little smile. I was sure if I had the ability I would be crying. This was it. I need their help.

Roy's POV

I was looking around the kitchen. After Ed's display earlier I was completely shaken. We were looking for any signs of were Ed's body or killer is. I wanted revenge for my lover, the only person I have ever loved and who made me forget the horrors of the Ishbalin war. The whole place was deserted and there was no sign that anyone ever lived here accept for the buildings existence itself and the furniture. There was a small click that came from the doorway and we all turned in a flash. There stood Edward to all of our initial surprise. He looked and gave a small sad smile. Golden eyes glittered with silver giving those miserable eyes the look of crying.

"I've missed you all." He whispered.

"So very much. I need your help. After that crash I ended up here and my body separated from my spirit. I am alive, however that can easily change soon. If you can find out how to get to the basement before the sun rises I may just live. However, if I do not leave this house before then, I will die and my spirit will be trapped here forever. Never able to pass on."

My heart jumped when he said he was still alive only to stop a little after when he said he would die and never be in peace if we didn't get him out before sunrise. I looked at his pocket watch. 12 Pm. If we don't find him before then I will ever forgive myself.

"We need to find the basement. Now!" I shouted! They all looked at me in agreement and Ed smiled once me before giving out a light sigh and disappeared. I ran straight back into the front room, the others following quickly behind. I continued into the same hall that Ed ran into the first time we met him. I threw open the door and by manipulating the air around me, I felt for the weight of pressure of a human in another area. I slowly tracked the surrounding area and found nothing. Crap. That means the door that leads to Ed is too far or not open.

Al's POV

I could feel the Colonel's stress and fear for my brother. I realized now that I could still use alchemy. From the following events I had totally forgotten.

"Colonel!" I shouted

"Stand back! I'm busting through the bottom. Don't worry it shouldn't hurt Ed." I heard a grunt and the shuffle of feet before I clapped my hands and pressed them to the floor. The resounding bang must've alerted the one who did this I'm sure. But I don't care, Brother comes first. I jumped down the hole and noticed the others follow. The basement was spacious and large. We were a bit away from the middle of the room and we had traveled far into the mansion. As the dust settled I started at the room. My heart stopped. In the far corner there was a transmutation circle, but that wasn't the worst part. There propped against the edge of the room… was Ed.

Sorry the chapter is short. I know but I am busy and I need some me time. I will write another chapter tomorrow if we don't go anywhere. I don't have much time to read fanfics during the week because of homework. So that's what I going to spend the rest of today doing. Please please please please! Review Waaahhh T-T That button is very lonely. I hope to hear whom you readers are going as for Halloween! Thanks again! Let me know if there are spelling errors, etc in any of my stories.
