Surpass God or Truth Chapter 6

"So how do I choose a partner?"

Soul, Black Star, and Kid sat with Ed at Pizza Hut. All four of them ate their favorites and munched loudly.

"Well, first you got to match your soul wavelength." Kid said, watching in disgust at Black Star swallowing two large pizzas whole.

"If your wavelengths don't match, the weapon can put off bad wavelengths like heat or seem super heavy."

Ed nodded looking at the sky. The moon chuckled darkly at him and the navy blue sky seemed to be filled with glittering glowing stars.

Ed smiled slightly, feeling homesick.

You could see every star in the sky in Resembool. They were like floating lanterns in the navy blanket that was the night sky. On occasion he would watch them with Winry. Those were the best moments. Just the two of them, staring at the night sky on the roof of Granny's house. The cold night air nipping at their noses and Ed putting his arm around Winry to keep her warm.

Ed almost forgot what it felt like to be warm. Or cold for that matter. The numbness of his body was being pretty annoying in Ed's opinion.

"Can weapons fight without a meister?"

Kid nodded, his asymmetrical bangs dancing from side to side. His eyes were mild and showed wisdom.

"Yes. They aren't as strong as they can be by themselves."

"Ya! Ethan holds the longest streak of not having a meister. Maybe you're the meister he's needed." Black Star yelled. "Maybe if he starts acting more like the great Black Star he could pick up a partner!"

"I don't know. I mean, I think I want to rush picking a partner." Ed said. He was getting more and more caught up in this lie. He has to find a way to make sure narcissist assassin won't try to surpass God.

Kid's golden apple-like eyes closed as Black Star went on about something Kid didn't care about.

'Speaking of Ethan, where is he?' Kid wondered. 'He hasn't been out of his house in days.'

"I haven't been out of the house in days." Envy paced. He was getting jumpy and paranoid. He ran his hand in his hair which made is even more palm tree-like.

"I can't let the Fullmetal pip-squeak's arrival drive me nuts! I have to do something."

Envy transformed and red static covered his whole body. With skin turning to fur and violet eyes became orange, Envy transformed into a cat.

Jumping onto his window he left and roamed Death City in his new form.

Ed, Soul, Black Star, and Kid walked around Death City. The city looked beautiful at night. With all the multi-colored lights from stores and houses it was a truly breathtaking sight.

Under Liz's orders, the guys had to get Ed more new clothes. Ed insisted he could make his own, but Liz didn't want to hear it.

The boys did their shopping and Ed was fitted with black jeans and a black tee that said DWMA in large white letters with Lord Death's mask on it.

Ed liked it but he still wore his red coat. It was his favorite, after all.

The boys continued but Ed couldn't help the feeling that he was being watched. He felt tensed. He had a gut feeling something wasn't right. Looking around his eyes landed on a little grey cat.

The cat's glowing orange eyes seemed to follow his every move. Ed sighed with relief, thinking that it was only a harmless cat that was watching him.

Boy was he wrong.

Envy flicked his tail as he watched Edward turn around and walk with Soul, Black Star, and Kid.

As every clock in Death City struck twelve o'clock, Ed decided to settle for the night. Waving goodbye at his new friends, he unlocked the apartment he was borrowing.

Plopping down on his bed, Ed fell asleep the minuet his head touched his pillow.

Authors notes:
