"What do you want Mustang?" Ed looked at the superior officer, he hated to call him by that but it was easier than saying colonel Mustang all the time."I wanted to tell you that I am going out." Ed looked at him surprised, "And I thought you were supposed to be "married" to Riza! Cheating unofficially now?" Mustang crossed a look of annoyance across his face, "No, I merely have to go out for some work duty." Ed hated to admit it but Mustang seemed like he was telling a god-honest truth. "Ugh, whatever."
Ed returned to reading, he sighed putting the book down. He wondered if there was a bookstore here. . . He ran upstairs forgetting that Riza was taking a nap, "HEY RIZA!" He opened her closed door to find a grumpy, tired and forcefully awoken Riza, it was kinda scary, her hair was down which looked kinda pretty but her eyes seemed to be glowing and a dark aura floated around her, "What do you want Edward?" Ed stuttered a bit, "U-uh i was wondering if I could go around town to see fi there are any bookstores around or something. . ." Riza looked at him, her face somewhat soft, "Go ask your dad."
Ed walked out, Riza referred to Mustang as his dad? Ed laughed to himself, as if that would ever happen! He then ran downstairs and out the door. He could just say that Mustang said yes. Ed ran into the streets of Japan. He looked around in awe, he had chosen his simplest outfit, a white shirt with black pants and a long black overcoat. His hair was up in a braid as usual and he ran through the streets, even though it was almost seven, the sun was still up!
Ed made sure he had his money with him and walked around, everyone around here dressed pretty normally. He could easily tell the rich from the moderates though. He came to a little grocery store. He thought of getting some food to eat while he was out and shrugged, going in.
He went in and looked around, everything was in Japanese! He tried hard to read the price for something but he couldn't. He sighed. How did Mustang do all of this? Suddenly a person tapped his shoulder, "Excuse me, are you okay?" He turned to see a girl with short brown hair and hazel eyes. "Oh yeah, I don't speak Japanese so this will be a tough one!"
Turns out the girl's name was Haruhi and she also attended Ouran Academy. "So, you attend The Academy as well? You must be pretty smart, probably skipping some grades too." Ed looked at her, "Why do you think that?"Haruhi laughed, "Because your so short!" Ed resisted using alchemy to shut her up, "I'm not short, you guys are just freakishly tall!" Haruhi laughed, "You know, we should meet up some time. Hang out."
That's all he got out of her before some tall blond boy with violet eyes dragged her away, claiming Ed was just trying to get her attention and he was acting. Ed smirked, That guy was such a kid.
Ed walked into the door, seeing Mustang home on the couch doing paperwork. And Riza came out of her room, "Back finally?" Ed looked at the clock, it was nearly nine. "Oh sorry, time flies huh?" Riza nodded and looked at his bag of food, "Where'd you get that?" Ed looked down at it, "Oh, at the supermarket."
Mustang turned to look at him, "How could you read Japanese? I know for a fact you can't speak it."Ed shot him a glare, "Well, what if I do!" Mustang chuckled, "Yeah, right."
Ed had climbed into bed, exhausted after today. And tomorrow he had to go to this Academy place. He sighed and spotted something from the corner of his suitcase, he picked it up and saw a manilla envelope titled to him. He took it out and look over some papers then reading the title, "How to speak Japanese." Oh geez, cause this is so helpful now.
Ed fell asleep steadily, wrapped in the covers and snored lightly.
