DISCLAIMER: What your about to read is a work of fiction. The names of the places and characters in the plot of this story are pure fan-based work. (Thus it's called "Fanfiction.")
In a rush today, so no essay long dialogue, for you readers to enjoy. (If you miss them that much, you always check out my other work here on to enjoy them.) But this chapter will be a little longer than the last, to make up for the dialogue. And while I write these, I will put up a song that I'm currently listening to on as the background music for each chapter and either a little poem or journal entry on what the characters are thinking… so today's song choice is: "Enjoy the silence" By Depche Mode.
So onward to Chapter Four… (Gosh it's freaking Chapter Four already? Wow time flies…)
Entry 1:
Wow…did she just fall off the bed?
Didn't think a girl like that could be such a klutz…
oh, sorry, Edward Elric here! Yes, it is: The Fullmetal Alchemist, Edward Elric speaking right now…and boy is it crazy where I am now!
BELIEVE ME, I WOULD GLADLY SWITCH PLACES WITH YOU ANY TIME, IF YOU KNEW WHAT I HAD GOTTEN MYSLEF INTO…It all started coz me and Al found some chick in the woods, caught in an animal trap, and next thing you know… people go nuts for over the stupidest things.
Yeah, that idiot got Guardian mad… (Lucky it wasn't me, huh?)Wonder what's gonna happen next? If you have any ideas, please tell me! I'm begging you! Don't let me get caught in this mess, I've gotta lot on my plate, as it already is! Hope Al doesn't get caught up in this…uh oh…Guardian's looking mad, better duck for cover! -EDWARD ELRIC: The Fullmetal Alchemist
Chapter Four: The Big "Brother" Freak-out?
"I'm sorry Guardian… it wasn't my fault… please don't kill me… it was all Ed's idea! He made me do it … if you want somebody to blame … BLAME HIM!" Vic cried out as he ran out the door of the infirmary, like his life depended on it.
"HEY, DON'T BLAME THIS ONE ON ME, IDIOT!" Ed cried out at the Voice actor, who left the scene in a hurry. He was about to raise his fist, when he felt burning stares of anger piercing him from behind. He cautiously turned around and quickly tried not to get scared at Guardian's burning fury of anger that stared at him.
"Edward…" She said in a threating angry voice. He knew he was screwed, when she was like that. No one ever escaped her angry glares, when she was like that. He was about to close his eyes, waiting for the lecture to begin, when he heard something that made him stop what he was doing.
It sounded like a small noise made from a scared animal, like a baby kitten. He turned towards the source of the sound and wasn't prepared for what happened next.
A small gasp was heard from the girl that fell off the bed. She was staring at the ceiling, not paying any attention from the people around her. Her eyes darted back and forth, for what seemed like a few minutes. Guardian knelt by the strange girl and tried stroking her hand and talking to her in a soothing voice.
"What's wrong?" Ed asked as he walked over to Guardian and the girl.
"I don't know, she been acting like this for few minutes….I can't figure out what's wrong." Guardian said.
"Do you think…she's having a nightmare?" Megan asked with concern for the girl.
"I don't think you can have those when your awake, Megan. At least not to my knowledge…" Ed said, as he looked at the girl.
Her eyes once again darted back in forth, seeing something that the others couldn't see. In her mind, she was panicking inside, her entire being trying to fight the monster that had crept its way into her soul, while she was in her confused dazed state.
She needed to get out…
She needed to get away…
She needed someone…anyone…to help her…anyone would do, just someone to save her from being devoured by this monster of darkness. She tried to run as fast as she could, but her legs felt like she was moving through thick water. No matter how much she tried, she couldn't move fast enough to get away.
"Someone…HELP ME!" She screamed in her mind as she tried to run as fast as she could, from this horrible monster that was closing in on her.
"GET AWAY FROM ME!" She screamed as loud as she could at the monster.
"You're mine, girl!" The dark cold voice said close to her ear, almost like it was right next to her. She could almost feel it's evil dark aura, trying to consume her in the darkness of her darkest nightmares.
"NO STAY AWAY!...
PLEASE, DON'T TOUCH ME!..
GET AWAY FROM ME, YOU MONSTER!" She screamed in fear as the black arm-claws tried to reach out and grab her, pulling her into the evil darkness of it's aura.
Suddenly a warm feeling of light, came into her being and began to push the monster away…away from her and this empty existing space. She felt something grabbing her, like it was pulling her away from the evil monster.
All she could feel, was the warmth of light:
Warm and comforting light, like the light of a good friend.
She felt the light embrace her, as she let a few tears fall from her eyes. She knew now that she was safe, bathed in the warmth of the protective light and knowing that the aura monster couldn't come back for her. . .
Not as long as she was being protected by the light. More tears continued to fall as she cried some more, still in the embrace of the light.
Then the next thing she saw, was the embracing light turning into a warm hand, pulling her away from this darkness and into a different dream space. She held onto the hand, like her life depended on it, making sure she wouldn't let go. While still holding onto the hand, she followed the source of the hand's aura, leading back into the light and into reality…
"Guardian, what did you do?" Megan asked her friend.
The two just watched as Guardian continued trying to calm the girl down. After what seemed like a few seconds, the girl began to squirm and squeal little shouts of pain. The group was about to hold the girl down, if she started to get worse. . .
But a small glow came over the girl and she began to calm down, relaxing a little bit at a time. In a matter of minutes, she was totally relaxed and breathing softly as Megan and Ed stared at Guardian in wonder.
"I don't know. I didn't use any Alchemy or anything like that. . . . all I did was try to help her calm down." Guardian said to her two friends.
They all looked at the girl who was sound asleep and seemed to be having a better dream, a sweet dream free of any nightmares.
Hours passed when Reinae woke up again, this time in a different room.
She looked around and saw it was a room painted with lots of fantasy drawings on the walls from legends of the past, like ancient Elvin people and flying winged avian's. She took in every detail of each drawing with all its amazing detailed structure.
She was so hypnotized by the drawings that she didn't notice the knocking on the door of the room she was in. She snapped out of her trance and looked towards the door.
She could her voices on the outside of the door, voices that sounded familiar to her.
"Do you think she's awake yet?"
"How should I know? Why don't you open the door?"
"Well, I don't a repeat of the last time I opened the door. . . so you should do it."
"You stupid idiot! Why I outta. . . ." She tried really hard not to laugh at the two voices bickering with each other as she cautiously got off the bed.
She walked towards the door, with little sound made from her tiny feet. She walked with the grace of a ballet dancer, no noise made on the floor when she walked. When she got to the door, she reached for the door handle, but hesitated for a minute as she pulled her hand back. She didn't know if she wanted to open the door and face those any of the people hear again.
She was afraid and scared of what might happen, if she opened the door. . .
The Alchemist named Ed seemed to not like her for some reason. . . But she could tell that he was burden with a great sadness at a loss and a tragedy, somewhere in his life.
And that Vic guy, seemed to be a little weird to her, but she could also tell that he was just trying to help. He was worried about her:
A stranger, who had not connection to any of the rangers here. . . But he still wanted to help in anyway, even though she didn't ask for anyone to help her.
Even though they didn't show it the first time they met this strange girl, but somehow they wanted her to be okay. And somewhere deep in her mind, she knew that's the reason why the came to that room . . .
Before she could change her mind, she quickly grabbed the door handle and opened the door. She saw the two guys still bickering at each other. . .
This time getting ready for the flying of fists.
They only stopped the bickering, when she announced herself by clearing her throat for their attention. "Um excuse me, but. . ." The girl named Reinae said, standing there in the doorway in the long pink sleeping nightgown that Guardian and Megan must have put on her, when she arrived yesterday.
It was a soft Sakura pink color with little buttons running down the top of the nightgown down to almost halfway of the middle part of the gown. But if you looked closely, there was another one under the first nightgown, since the first one was too short for her, so the girls must have doubled it up for her.
So now she just stood there, in the nightgown-dress waiting patiently for someone to say anything.
"Hey, feeling any better?" Ed asked the Reinae who just stood there trying not to look at him fully in the eyes.
"Yeah, a little bit. I never got to thank you for yesterday with the trap and everything. . ." She said, trying to get out her apology without messing it up while she talked.
"No problem. And besides, Guardian would have killed me if I left you alone like that." Ed said, not wanting to imagine what would have happen to him, if he hadn't saved this girl from the trap. Reinae's wolf ears perked up, twitching like a cat's tail, making her embarrassed at their actions.
She always hated when her wolf ears did that. . .
especially in front of other people.
"So um, got any other place to stay?" Vic said, making Ed and Reinae both turn to face him with shocked looks on their faces.
"What the hell was that for, you big idiot? Why would you say something like that? Have you lost you're freakin mind?" Ed ranted at him, while Reinae covered her face from the light crimson blush that had crept onto her face.
"What? Weren't you thinking the same thing? It's obvious that she has nowhere to go and as the only person who has better respect for human beings than you, I thought it was best to ask if she need's a place to stay." Vic said, like it was the most obvious thing in the world, only to him.
"WHAT WAS THAT, YOU FREAKIN LUNATIC? . . .
YOU TAKE THAT BACK YOU FREAK OF NATURE!" Ed screamed at the Voice actor, the streaming literally raging out of his ears.
As the two argued, once again almost at the point to rip each other's throats out, they were interrupted by Reinae's voice once again.
" I . . . don't." She said in a soft voice that made both guys freeze at that instant.
"Uh, what? Sorry didn't catch that. . . Did you say something?" Vic asked his fist a couple of inches from Ed's face.
I . . .
Don't have . . . A place to stay.
I never did have a home to call my own.
So no. . . I don't." She said with her head down and her eyes facing the floor, not wanting to look at them anymore. She continued on, still looking at the floor.
"I don't even have any siblings or parents to go to right now. They left me when I was little, so all this time, I've been taking care of myself without any support from anybody. It's been fine so far living on my own, but . . ." She stopped her self from trying to let a few tears fall from her eyes.
Nobody ever cried for her losses, so why should she cry for herself now? What happened in the past, stays in the past. There was nothing she could do to change it.
Nothing she could do. . .
But keep going towards the future, if she even had one. . .
She continued to stare at the floor, not knowing what was going to happen next.
"YOU POOR LITTLE THING!" The wails of the Tamaki mode, rang out crystal clear as she was sweeped up into the arms of Vic and spun her around in circle. She screamed in surprise, not liking this at all.
Ed just stood there, dumbfounded at the whole scenario. In his mind he now knew the sad hard truth. . .
This guy . . . Was totally . . .
Idiotic and completely insane.
"You've been suffering much, without any help from anyone. Why is the world so cruel to little lambs like you?" Vic continued in his Tamaki mode, while Reinae tried to squirm her way out of Vic's arms.
"Let me go blondie, I don't need anyone's pity." Reinae said as she tried to get this guy to let go of her. Her words might have done the trick, coz he let go of her and she quickly rubbed her arms from being grabbed like that. She didn't like that at all, it felt weird to her.
But she wasn't expected what he would say next.
He grabbed her shoulders and spun her around to face him, his blueish-green eyes gleamed with a look in his eyes that kinda scared her a little.
He was up to something and she didn't want to be any part of it.
"Don't you worry about anything anymore . . .
from now on . . .
YOU'RE BIG BROTHER WILL BE HERE TO LOOK OUT FOR YA!" Vic said still in his Tamaki mode, as she raised a questionable eyebrow at his statement.
"And what do you mean by 'Big Brother'? I thought I told you that I don't have any sibling's . . ." she said as he cut her off.
"That's not true . . . not anymore at least.
You got a new brother . . . . . .
. . .(Author:*Wait for it audience. . .*)
...ME!" Vic said pointing at himself, knowing now that he just offered himself the position before discussing it with anyone first. That's when she knew what the heck he was talking about:
He had just offered to be her "Big Brother".
As in,: Keeping an eye and watching over her, in replace of any "Real Parents".
So basically, in one single moment:
He had now single handedly . . .Turned her life into a topsy- turvey . . .
Living hell.
You could just feel the awarkedness seeping into the room, after that decision was made. And there was only way how to describe that decision. . .
"Way to go, moron!" Ed muttered at Vic, who just stood there . . .
With the biggest. . . Idiotic . . . Grinning smile on his face.
Entry 1: ~Ending~
What a moron. . .

So end's the fourth chapter, which took me a lot longer to finish even with my other fanfic project's that I've been working on.
I've been at the computer for about three days working and typing on all my stories that needed to be updated. After finally getting through six chapters done, I still have a lot more to do . . .*cries* anyway, hoped you like this one, even though it took a while to write up.
