It has been some time… oh well, enjoy and review!
Rose had been through a lot of strange and painful things recently but this one was just off the charts weird. "What?" She asked in disbelief. "We know that you were part of the reason that Edward was able to stop Cornello, we also know that you have a lot of knowledge about that area and think you would be a great help to our chances of helping your people," Mustang spoke.
"They are not my people…" Rose said sounding upset. "Sir's maybe it would be best to give her some time to think about it, give her a little rest?" Riza spoke, the Fuhrer smiled. "Of course, Colonel Mustang I'm putting her under your charge." He then took a seat. "Oh and congratulate the young Elrics for me would you?"
He smiled as the Colonel saluted. "Yes sir." He then escorted the two ladies out making a mental note to call Edward a shrimp at least once while congratulating him. "Rose may I suggest that if you do indeed choose to except our offer that you stay clear of any inner office relationships," Riza suggested. "Um, ok," Rose blushed. Mustang smirked.
"Relax kid, I'm pretty sure that Fullmetals to thick headed to try anything anyway," He chuckled. "Sir…" Riza sighed.
Rose spent half of the day walking around the offices, chatting with soldiers who all said Mustang was such a great soldier, and how people should stay clear of Brigadier General Grand. "…And that's why you should never ever for any reason at all ever eat the Tuna Salad." A soldier was blabbering to her as Rose was sweat dropping and backing away. "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING A SHRIMP SO SMALL HE'S FOOD FOR MICROSCOPIC PLANKTON!" the shrill voice of an adolescent was heard screaming from Mustangs office.
"Gee I wonder who that could be…" Rose sighed.
"Gee Fullmetal with a voice like that I'm surprised you haven't been scouted as an opera singer." Mustang smiled amused as the rest of his staff just sighed. "Why I outta!" Edward rolled up his sleeve making a motion to smash his face in, "Brother…" Alphonse sighed. "Uh sir," Fury came in looking slightly frightened. "Yes what is it?" He didn't enjoy being interrupted from his daily "Taunt the holy hell out of Ed" sessions. "A Miss Thomas to see you."
Mustang looked up. "Send her in." He left while Edward continued grinding his teeth in anger, "Brother doesn't that name sounds familiar," Alphonse asked. Suddenly his question was answered as Rose came walking in looking bewildered at Edward. "Rose!" They both gaped. "Hey guys." She looked slightly happier. "What are you doing here?" Alphonse sounded happy. "Ya, aren't you supposed to be in Lior?" Edward asked rather rudely.
"Gee Fullmetal you sure know how to charm the ladies." Mustang declared. "Shut it Asshole!" Rose sighed. "Your never going to learn are you brother," Alphonse sighed. "So what ARE you doing here Rose?" Rose looked down sadly. "Well I…" Mustang interrupted. "Rose here has been asked to join the military by Fuhrer King Bradley." Edward's eyes went out of his head while Alphonse did that little cartoony thing his head sometimes does. "WHAT!"
Rose frowned. "Is that a problem Ed?" Edward shouted. "Of course it's a problem, you can't join the military!" Edward practically screamed in her face. Rose looked angrily at Ed. "And why not?" She shouted back in his face. "Because, your not right for the military, you wouldn't make it!" He shouted in her face stupidly, Rose looked hurt for a moment causing Edward to flinch, then she looked pissed.
"Ill have you know Edward that I AM going to join the military, AND I am going to be right next to you wherever you go to look for this Philosopher's Stone, and when you do find it I am going to help you!" She shouted with determination as Mustang stared interested at her sudden change and emotion. Edward looked nothing but stunned as Rose stomped out opening to door while Fury, Havoc, Breda, and Riza all fell out from behind the door.
"Wait, Rose!" Edward called after her but she just kept walking. "Ugh, what is with Girls!" everyone sweat dropped as Alphonse sighed. "Brother, you really should apologize to Rose." Edward glared at Al, "Apologize, to her!" Everyone glared at him while Mustang just smirked. "Well it's not like you had any chance of dating her anyway small fry."
Ed flushed while screaming. "Who the Hell are you calling small fry?" Mustang just shrugged as Ed stormed out after Rose. "Sigh, Brother will never learn."
What did you think?
