Oh, hello guys. It's my first day of summer break! So I'm gonna be able to pursue longer projects, like the length "Abduction" was! And guess what! I was able to plan out this chapter through chapter 13! There will most likely be a pretty dark feel from here on out, so if you liked the happier parts, sorry! You'll just have to read something else of mine... Now I'm gonna let you read this story, so have fun! And I'll tell you who the winner was at the end of the chapter! No peeking!

The Past To Desire
Chapter Eight Of Number Thirteen
By Chibi Allen Walker The Awsome!
(Ed's POV)
"You know, kitten? I've never told you how I really came around. I think I'll tell you, a nice story to possibly lull you to sleep, humm?" Desire said in his ever-so-smooth voice.
I blindly watched as he said some jibberish, and a screen appeared from his fingers. This would tell me.
(The Story Of Desire The Homuncolious)
Desire was the last of the homuncolious, born shortly after the others had been elimanated. He too used to have the same animal features as Edward, but they were dog. He had removed them by hand when he had grown older.
His first memory was of being in an orphanage, and wanting to kill all the people who were there, because they had all made fun of the dog ears and tail. He eventually did, the day he turned sixteen. A bloodly massacure happened, and noone was left alive. He ran away to Central City, and then north. Thus starting a military case called 'The Raven's Massacure'.
He soon found out of his past, being Lust's son, not by birth, and being half of the dead Edward Elric's soul. He sent agents to locate this 'other half' of his soul, so he could comply to Ed's wishes. And he did.
( End Of Story)
"Now, you know, kitten. Now I have something I have to do. To dispose of you, now that my chores with you are completed, anyway." Desire's grin turned into a most wicked simle, mostly meant to scare me, but I didn't make any expression back. I didn't even flinch.
(Roy's POV)
As we headed back to my house, I could feel the presence of the kid who's been following Alphonse. Who is he? I ask myself.
He was a small boy, about eight? With auburn hair and hazel eyes. He had been carrying a large suitcase, much too large for him to be carrying.
"Uhmm...Hey kid, who are you?" I asked him, letting him catch up to me.
"Oh, me?" he giggled, pointing to himself. "I'm Remus Elric! I'm training to be the best auto-mail mechanic ever!"
So Alphonse lied to me!
"Al!" I yelled to him. He peeked around, wonder on his pale face. "Didn't you tell me you haden't a wife!"
"Well, yes...But I didn't have time for that conversation, so I didn't bring it up! The only reason I was at your house was so I could see the orders for the auto-mail through! Not to make small talk with some military bastard looking for power!" Al turned on me, fists balling together.
"Excuse, me! And you didn't even give shit enough to tell me you at least had a son! I though I could trust you! But you've gone as far as to Edward's level!"
"Don't talk of him like that! He's your son! And my older brother! Don't you care about him? And to let you know," Al snapped. "I have three sons!" he retorted, stomping his foot to prove his point.
"Please! STOP!"
Below us, Remus was looking up, expression distruaght. There were tears brimming his eyes, threatning to fall.
"Please don't fight, Mister Roy, Papa. If we don't stop, we'll never resolve this! We need to work together, as a group!"
That stopped us. Al gulped, and stepped away, grabbing his suitcase. I relaxed myself and began to walk home again.
This kid knew more than he let on...
(Ed's POV)
I watched as Desire mosied out of the room, leaving me in my prison, all alone, nothing but me and my bed. The door basically melted into the wall, so I had no idea where it was, I wouldn't be able to escape that way.
I curled up into a ball, which was my preferred sleeping position, and I fell to sleep, only to have a dream.
It was a horrible dream, with everyone I knew...slitting my throat. But when Desire came up to me, he clamped both of his hands over my nose and mouth, went up to my face, and growled;
"To earn air, you must say, that you do not love Roy Mustang, with truth in your words."
I jerked awake, horribly frightened, and I clutched my pillow, and cried into it, wondering what I was going to do.
(Kade's POV)
"What? Why'd you do that, you son-of-a-bitch!" I yelled into Roy Hughes' face, almost ready to kill him. "You really do have problems!"
I slapped him and stormed off, very upset, and even knowing who had to have possibly taken Edward.
Desire wouldn't kill my best friend! Not now, not ever! All I had to do was go home and call his father and give him to tip! Then I'd go see if I could handle the problem!
(Ed's POV)
I looked up as my door opened, to see Desire, with handcuffs.
Was he going to do it again?
"Well, kitten. I've decided that we should play a game together. Wanna know what it's called? Russian Roulette. I'll tell you the rules in a moment. Now off the bed."
I knew what Russsian Roulette was! He's gonna kill me!
But I made no move of escape as he handcuffed me and lead me out into the mirky hallway.
What was I gonna do about it? My creation had lead to all of this, anyways. Maes attacking and nearly killing me, meeting Kade and Roy Hughes, my arm falling off, then me being raped and kidnapped and raped again. Then there was Roy Mustang. He came and adopted me because of something. Something more than just me being a chimera with human qualities. But what could it be?
"Allright, kitten. Time for the game to begin," Desire purred, putting me in a room and letting me go. He went into another room I could see through glass. "The rules, are simple. I'll give you one of my guns, and you point it to your head. There may either be a bullet in the magazine, or it might be blank. Obviously, the bet is your life. You'll be very lucky if it's blank. Now, you have ten minutes to make yourself comfortable. In what might be your deathbed."
(Alphonse's POV)
"Looks like we're here." Roy said, grabbing the doorknob, and opening the door.
I stepping in the extremly warm climate, Remus after me, and I went into the living room, where I had met Edward for the first time in almost twenty years.
I saw the telephone, and there was a bright purple light blinking on it.
"Umm...Is there a message on this? There's a purple light on here, going off."
Roy came into the room, and pushed a button, and a voice filled the room.
"! It's Kade, Edward's friend! I think I know who took him, and possibly where! The guy's name is Desire, who looks like him, and there's an abandoned warehouse near Briggs, he should be there!"

The Winner of my trivia question is shinohime-chan, and the answer was that Stanley Park first appeared in Chapter Two. It was located near the very beginning of the chapter. And shinohime-chan, I will try my best to get you that Yullen one-shot! Oh, and on Roselynn Saphira and awsomenaruto's one-shots and two-shots...They are getting completed as of right now, but both are still in beginning stages. I promise I'll have it at least by the end of the month! See ya in Chapter Nine! :D
