"Good morning Ai." I looked over at Al with a smile.
"Morning Al, Ed." I nodded to each of them. I saw Ed blush slightly. "Something wrong Ed?" I was inwardly smirking at him.
"No, nothing." I nodded and yawned.
"So, how long are we staying? Or do we leave today?"
"Um… We leave today, by train."
"Ed?"
"Hm...?"
"Why won't you look at me?"
"I am looking at you."
"In the eyes?" I was trying hard to hide my amusement, but it was hard. "Did I do something wrong?"
"No, no you didn't do anything." He looked me in the eyes for a second, and then looked away.
"Uha…" I said with a smile, "Well, when do we leave?"
"On the next train." He left to his room and left Al and I alone.
"What did you do last night?" I looked at him.
"What?"
"Last night, before I went to sleep I heard you leave your room and now brother can't seem to look you in the eye." He had a smirk pulling on his lips.
"I left my room to get something to eat. I don't know why Ed can't look me in the eye."
"Why are you smirking?"
"The real question is what do you think I did to make me smirk."
"I haven't the slightest idea."
"Well okay then." I said as we went to get our stuff from our rooms. We left soon after that and went to the train. We got into a booth and I smiled as we sat and Ed looked out the window. He looked over to me and saw a frown.
"What's wrong?"
"I'm not sure." I said, "I just have an uneasy feeling. Like something is going to go wrong…" The train then stopped.
"How did you-?"
"I just did." I said as the compartments started being searched. "Just stay calm, I have a plan." Both boys nodded, curious. The door slid open then and a man walked in. He looked us over, his eyes lingering on me.
"Come with me." He said, I stood before the boys and walked over to him. I put my hands behind my back and clapped them together, I then touched my lips. "Hello there." He said, I smiled at him and kissed him.
"What the hell are you doing?" Ed yelled behind me. When I pulled back I rolled my eyes.
"How else was I supposed to keep him quiet?"
"What?" He yelled.
"Shh! I stopped him from talking. I am an alchemist after all."
"You used puppet alchemy?" Al asked, I nodded
"You don't think I'd just kiss a guy do you?" I touched his hands, arms, legs, feet, and head, "No one's getting away. Now act natural." I said to the boys as we walked down the hall, I took in a deep breath and started to talk through him.
"Oi! Guys, found them." The other guys looked at him and nodded as they all walked down the train.
"Like taking candy from a baby." I said as we walked. We were quickly approaching the end of the train, but on the walked there we got to a train with no one in it, the luggage cart. "Boys?" They stopped and looked at me. "Would you come here?" The majority of them stopped and about half came as the other half went ahead. "Ed, Al, a little help?" They both smiled and put their hands together locking in the men. "Thanks." I got to work then, keeping them silent then putting on the strings. "I wish I had a different way to do that." I said as we left the cart.
"I see you found them," I looked over at the leader, I was tired as hell with all the strings I had going around the room.
"Is there something you are looking for?"
"Yes, you."
"Me?"
"You."
"Why would you want me?"
"I think you know why."
"You know, I'm not much for useless talk or questions, so when I ask I rarely know the answer."
"The answer is all around this room."
"Your men?"
"The ones under your control."
"Sir, I think you have the wrong girl, though I am part of the military I am not an alchemist, so I can't have anything all over this room except maybe men."
"You dear are indeed an alchemist, an amazing one at that. To keep so many men under your control…"
"Sir, have I done something to you?"
"Not to me, for me."
"I'm getting tired of playing your game." I said annoyed as I flicked my finger and the men attacked their leader.
