Chapter 3
Inner Turmoil
It had been an hour ever since the "interrogation" incident had ended...
Maka was tossing and turning in the bed...
Something was plaguing her mind...
But what?...
She found herself in a dark room...
looking around she seemed to feel uneasy...
Was anyone here?
Why was she here?...
She looked around only finding faint sources of light...
"Hello Maka..." an voice whispered...
She turned around to find a dark figure covered by the shadows...
"Who are you?"
It then began to walk slowly towards her..
"Isn't it obvious..." it replied as the figure walked towards a faint light..
Maka's eyes slowly widened...
Her face showing a sense of confusion...
As the figure slowly enveloped in the light Maka realized that who she saw was an exact replica of her..
"I am you... the other "you" " the girl finally said.
"What are you?" Maka asked..
Her "clone" stood... silent.
"your dark half"
"What?" Maka exclaimed.
"your hate, anger... anything that you have been keeping hidden... only enhanced." "Dark Maka" uttered
"Th... That's not true" She answered in defense.
"Oh is it?" her copy answered.
Maka began to think...
Something seemed familiar about who was in front of her...
That face of the girl in front of her ...
It was one on insanity...
Her eyes finally coming to focus she realized that what was near her was a remnant...
A remnant of her "insane" form...
But why... why did "it" remain?
Weren't the effects of that episode suppressed..
the effects of the "black blood"
"I thought you.." Maka uttered...
Her clone instantly understanding her words replied.
"No.. I didn't disappear, I remained only in a dormant state, until that "gate we passed through did something to what little black blood was in you.
Ominous silence filled the room...
"Why did you bring me here..." Maka asked.
"Me.. no you brought yourself here... with all that crap eating away at your sanity I am in the position to offer my services...
"Why?" Maka asked.
"Simple... were both in a bit of a predicament.. if anything happens to you I get hurt too..."
"There are some things that can only be done in a fit of insanity my naive counterpart" the copy added.
"I don't need your help." Maka answered, only to find her copy gone..
silence again...
"Don't be a fool." her copy finally answered finally reappearing behind her.
"You're gonna have to sometime." it said a dark smile forming once again.
"cause whether you like it or not if your in a pinch you can't cope with I'll take over." It finished
"Your gonna thank me for this sometime my naive twin" Her "twin" answered.
Then light...
Maka woke up in the room partially confused...
Finally Izumi opened the door her students behind her.
"My students and I have talked..." She calmly said
"You need a new arm and leg" Ed added.
"How are you gonna do that?" Maka asked .
"You'll see" he replied. leaving with his brother.
Izumi looked back to Maka..
"One other thing, once you get fixed up... I'm going to train you." Izumi remarked.
"In what?" Maka asked.
"Alchemy..." Izumi replied
later...
"In the meantime read these books they'll give you the basic knowledge." Izumi said hoisting a pile of books on a nearby table.
" THESE ARE FOR BASICS!" Maka thought to herself.
Well... there wasn't anything she could do in the meantime.
Quickly grabbing a book labeled "introduction to alchemy" she was reading... and at a VERY fast pace too..
Izumi looked at Maka noticing a small look of insecurity in her eyes...
"Are you okay?, Is anything bothering you..."
"nothing... Nothing at all." Maka replied...
Izumi quickly took leave knowing that Maka needed to concentrate.
Meanwhile...
In a nearby phone.
Edward was trying to talk to his mechanic..
well.. TRYING to
With all the talk and rambling of her training in Rush Valley and the different things about automail..
Getting on track was almost impossible...
"So what is it Ed?"The girl asked over the phone.
Yes indeed it was Winry Rockbell the "automail freak" talking on the phone her eyes fixed on a particular design..
"We need your help... can you make it to Dublith in a day." Ed asked a serious tone in his voice echoing.
"Why... did something happen to you two AGAIN!"Winry Inquired a sharp tone in her voice emanating.
"No... It's not that... it seems that we found another person who tried the same "stunt" Al and I did..."
"Oh..." Winry replied a solemn tone in her voice.
"I'll be there tomorrow. Dublith isn't that far either" She answered with a determined sound to her words before hanging up the phone.
Meanwhile somewhere else...
"So..." another one eh? An ominous figure sarcastically remarked
"Yes … and by the looks of it a possible threat too can you handle it?"
" No... Not yet... She isn't of any threat to us yet I'll intervene only when necessary. "
"Good.. Very good.. I hope you'll be of more use..."
"... Envy"
Well thats all for this chapter as well
