Chapter Four : The Boy with the Napoleon Complex

Rukia walked around by herself, she had gotten seperated from Edward and Alphonse, but her mind couldn't wrap around how that guy turned a simple flower into a shrine. She shook her head and rolled her eyes, Human Problem, she stated to herself, Don't get dragged into these things. She continued wandering around, hoping to run into one of the two boys, or both. She wasn't really focused on the fact of finding them but she knew they'd run into each other eventually. She started thinking about that Father Cornello guy again. "It just doesn't make any sense on how he could do that"

She continued walking and she smelled something horrid. It made her feel dizzy for a moment. Her eyes rolled back and she collasped. She found herself stuck in yet another Human Problem. She was picked up and thrown over some man's shoulder. She wasn't unconscious but she took that they didn't know that. She heard everything the man and his allies said.

"Who is the girl anyway?" One said.

"I dunno. She was standing next to some blonde haired boy and some guy in armor during one of the miracles. You heard the stories about the Fullmetal Alchemist. I take it, he was the guy in the armor. She was with them so she muct be of some importance to them. Her identity isn't important" The man carrying her said.

That's what you think! Rukia thought.

"You think Father Cornello could really use her to make the dead come back to life? That would make Rose so happy" Another said.

"Maybe"

"I hope the girl won't be put in any danger. She seems so young"

"She'll be..."

Rukia blacked out before she could hear anything else.

"So that's the Sun God Leto, huh?" Edward looked at the statue some girl was bowed in front of.

"Yes, are you interested in Leto-ism?"

"No, I'm not really religious"

"Oh. That's too bad. If you did maybe he could have made you taller"

Edward grit his teeth,"What's that suppose to mean?"

"Brother, She was just trying to help" Alphonse held his brother back from a rampage.

Edward reverted to his serious self,"So, what about bringing the dead back to life? Can your god do that, too?" He sat in one of the benches.

"I believe he can"

Edward sighed and pulled out his little black book and opened it. (Just because I don't want to get in trouble for copy writing). He read off everything that makes up an adult human body. The girl just stared at him. "That's the chemical makeup of the average adult human. It's been calculated perfectly and still there is still no successful reported case of creating human life and so you're telling me things modern science can't dp, you can do with prayer?"

"If you have belief, you're prayers will be answered"

"Didn't you hear that list I read to you? A kid could buy them at a store with loose change they found. Turns out humans aren't as expensive as you think"

"That can't be true! We were all created in God's image!"

Edward looked at her,"You must understand alchemists don't believe in anything that can't be proved. We're scientists, afterall, we just try to find the truth. It's ironic, really. We could almost play gods"

"You put yourself on the level of a God? That's arrogant!"

"Sorry to cut in on your topic of arrogance but I need to ask you a question Mr. Scientist" A red haired man with tattoos cut in. He looked at Edward carefully,"Have you seen Rukia anywhere?"

"Nope. She went on a walk I take it"

"Hn" The man walked off.

"Anyways" Edward jumped off the bench,"Do you think you Father Cornello could help such a arrogant scientist as myself?"

"Of course!"

Rukia had her ear pressed against a wall, she could hear Edward's voice. It seemed he was having a little trouble out there. Stupid Human Substances don't have much effect unless you're in a gigai and sadly that's just my positio! She could barely hear anything but she was heavily grabbed by the arm and dragged from this dungeon room she was in. She said nothing. There was nothing for her to say she just waited.

Edward was being shot at by Father Cornello then heard some man calling through the shots as they stopped. "Wait, Father! He won't attack as long as we have her" Edward was staring at Rukia and Rukia was staring back at him. She let out a bit of a laugh,"What a situation you've gotten yourself into Edward"

"Looks like you're in a bad one yourself"

Rukia grinned,"Not as bad as you think" She grabbed the man who was holding her back by the arm and flipped him over her shoulder. She looked at Cornello, who pointed the gun in her face. "That's quite cruel, isn't it? Threatening a young girl like me?"

"It keeps both you and them from moving, doesn't it?"

"I will move at will"

"I will shoot at will"

Rukia took a step toward him then disappeared. "Hado 33 Sokatsui!" A blue flash of light hit the wall. She looked at Al, Ed, and Rose. "Well? Let's get going!" The four of them ran out and went seperate ways.

Rukia stopped and looked at Edward,"Hey, Edward"

"Yeah?" Edward stopped to look at her.

"I know it isn't the time for this but.. Has anyone ever told you that you have a Napoleon Complex?"

"No?"

"Well, you do. You're short and crazy just like him" She laughed and ran off"

Edward grit his teeth and kept himself from going into a rant. He watched her run off before running to Cornello's office. Short and crazy, huh? I like it.
