Chapter 4: Please Watch Over Him, My Darling

Edward had explained his story to King Cedric, who was sitting in his desk, with Patricia next to him holding his pulse. When Edward was finished explaining, Cedric gave out a sigh and said, "This is really unbelievable."

Patricia removed her hand from Edward's wrist and said, "But Edward wasn't lying." Cedric looked at Edward seriously and asked, "So you suspect that you came to our time through that storm we had recently?" Edward nodded.

Cedric smirked and said, "Then I believe that you can use the same storm to get back." Edward looked at Cedric confusingly.

"What do you mean?" asked Edward.

"Take my room for example. How did you get in?"

"We went through your door," answered Edward. Cedric nodded.

"You have to use the same door to get out. So it should be the same with you traveling through time," said Cedric with a smirk. Edward smirked back.

"That does make sense. I just have to find the storm with the red lightning and jump in," said Edward in an amused tone. Cedric nodded.

Patricia looked down at Edward and asked, "How are you going to find the storm?" Edward fell silent and slumped over.

"You have no idea?" asked Patricia. Edward shook his head.

"Maybe he can check every storm that hits us to see if there is any red lighting in it," reasoned Cedric. Edward smirked and said, "That's a good idea."

"But we won't know when a storm is going to hit us," said Patricia. Edward slumped over again.

"He can check that new storm system you made in your lab," said Cedric. Edward revived and said, "A storm system? Can it tell the weather?"

Patricia nodded and said, "It's still in the making, but it still works." Edward smirked and said, "I'll just check that thing everyday then."

"That's in my lab and you need me to get in," said Patricia seriously. Edward looked at Patricia and asked, "Can you bring me there everyday?"

"Are you serious?" asked Patricia in an annoyed tone. Edward nodded.

Cedric stared at the two and smirked.

"That's not a bad idea," said Cedric. Edward and Patricia looked at him confusingly.

"What do you mean?" asked Patricia. Cedric entwined his fingers and said, "I don't want the information about Mr. Edward as a time traveler going around, so for the mean time, I want him to work in our base as a new state alchemist. If he's working on cases then no one will suspect that he is from another time."

Cedric smiled widely and added, "So I want Mr. Edward to work with you as your new partner, until the right storm hits. This will also allow him to see your invention everyday." Patricia and Edward stared at Cedric surprised.

"Are you serious?!" they exclaimed. Cedric nodded and said, "So please get along, but not too close." Patricia could tell that Cedric was dead serious and sighed in defeat.

"All right, but he better not drag me down," said Patricia completely against the arrangement. Edward glared at Patricia and said, "I should be telling you that."

"Be quiet, pipsqueak," said Patricia. Edward growled and swung a kick at her. Patricia caught his leg in the air causing him to growl.

Cedric smirked and said, "You're a bit too early to land a kick on my darling Fullmetal." Edward groaned and yanked his leg away from Patricia.

Cedric cleared his throat and said, "If Mr. Edward is going to work here temporarily, then he is going to need a title."

"Just call me Edward, the Fullmetal Alchemist and stop adding Mr. to my name," said Edward in an annoyed tone. Cedric chuckled.

"Oh yes, you did mention that your title in your time is Fullmetal just like my darling," said Cedric. Cedric thought awhile and then smiled.

"All right then, my darling Patricia will be Fullmetal Alchemist number one and you will be Fullmetal Alchemist number two," said Cedric proudly. Edward growled and screamed, "Why am I number two?!"

"Because I am number one," answered Patricia. Edward glared at her.

"Heck no, I should be number one!"

"You will always be number two because you stink."

"Who says?"

"You are also a pipsqueak."

"Who are you calling a pipsqueak?!"

"You."

Edward was burning with rage. Cedric shook his head and said, "Just deal with it, Edward." Edward turned away from Patricia angrily.

Cedric looked back at Patricia and said, "Please watch over him my darling, just until he returns." Patricia nodded.

Patricia was about to walk out, but then looked back at Cedric.

"What did you want to speak to me about anyway?" asked Patricia. Cedric smiled and said, "I can just tell you next time, when you don't have your 'partner' with you, darling." Patricia gave a nod.

Patricia dragged Edward out of the room even though Edward was clearly angry. Before the door closed, Patricia looked back at Cedric and said, "Don't call me darling."

When the door was fully closed, Cedric looked at a picture of an eight-year-old child in a blue military uniform on his desk and smiled.

"Maybe this time traveler boy will open up Patricia's heart."
