Warnings:Mentions/start of freaky/pedophilia stuff. sort of an OOC and an OC crossed together

Ed woke as the sun tickled his face, he moved his hands too rub his eyes, but found them covered with something. His mind flashed back to the night before, the liquid had dried. He slowly rose and walked into the bathroom, he was half asleep and not paying much attention to the world. Walking slowly towards the mirror above the sink, he blearily gazed at his face.

Dried red streaks covered his eyes, trailing over all of him. He was startled to full awareness. It covered him, vomit shot up in his throat as he silently prayed. But he knew. Blood, he was covered in blood. Whoever the blood belongs to couldn't be alive. When he had lost his arm, there hadn't been anywhere this much. And it came from his brothers hands.

"Oh no. Oh no. it's not. It's not. Oh no. Oh please. Dammit. No he didn't. He did. Was Mustang? No! He killed! No!" Ed pushed himself backwards, terror striking. He clenched his fists, splitting his wrists again, adding to the blood.

He screamed grabbing his hair and began falling to his knees. A strong pair of hand caught him around the waist. He whirled his head towards his brother.

"What's wrong?" Al softly cooed in his ears.

Ed was choked with tears and tried not to scream as his brother held him.

"Al. Tis everywhere. Where… Why s'on me?" Al cooed in his ears again and turned the shower on.

"It makes you good Ed." He undressed the boy, smirking at the blood marks on the boy's chest. Lifting him into the shower he allowed his eyes to trail the boy's body, enjoying himself, while his brother trembled uncontrollably.

As he trailed his hands over the blonde's body (in the guise of cleaning him) he softly whispered into his ear. "Where did this all come from? Hurt your wrists again? Just as they were healing." Ed nodded. Al nuzzled Ed's wet hair, soaking his own hair and clothes, as he hugged the boy.


Ed was still shivering slightly when he was taken into central. Too his surprise Elysia and Gracia were both there as well as Mustang and his subordinates and Winry. Gracia smiled at the sight of him and pulled him into her arms.

"I thought Elysia was crazy when she told me." She pulled back and smiled into the boys face. "I'm glad your back." She could feel grief gnawing at her chest, but she had loved Ed so would put it to one side.

Mustang walked over. "Elysia has decide that because we are 'old and out of touch', we will be useless at bringing you up to date with world. And she is going to tell you things that you need to know. Basically she's in charge of you."

"Wow. Good luck chief." Havoc murmured quietly, receiving a glare from the girl.

Mustang frowned as he looked at Ed. "you look pale Fullmetal. Did something happen?"

Ed jerked his head backwards. "What! No what could have happened? I'm fine." He let out a fake laugh and rubbed the back of his head. "Okay Elysia. Let's go."

"No. let sit here making a lot of noise and being really irritating until Uncle Roy gives us some money and then we'll go round the town." The girl let out a devilish smile, which made every adult in the room quiver.

Less than a minute later the girl was dragging the confused boy outside and into through the streets.

"Hey Elysia. I have to be back at the gates by 5."

"Sure big brother." Ed's eyes widened slightly, then a grin spread across his features. 'Big brother' he had always liked being called a big brother. His earliest memory was being introduced to his 'new baby brother'.

Elysia turned to him "What are you thinking about?"

He glanced up "I was remembering baby Al. this is really weird you know, but I was thinking about it. I remember. I was Al's first word, and I could always make him smile. I used to love being a big brother it made me feel really good I liked looking after him… sounds stupid I guess."

Elysia smiled "I remember you two being at my house, you were always nice with Al I remember. You were great." She looked at his downcast eyes. "You can be my big brother if you want."

Ed's head shot up and he began laughing as she went red. "We're exactly the same age! Same day and everything."

"Shut up big brother! It's a good idea." Both children ran down the street laughing and joking with each other.


Mustang, Winry and Gracia watched them go.

Gracia turned to Mustang. "Does he know what Al is? He could be in danger."

Mustang shook his head "I tried telling him, but he won't believe me."

Winry look at the older adults. "He loves his brother there's nothing you can do to change that, and I don't think anything Al could do would be cruel enough to stop that either."

Gracia looked at the blonde woman in front of her, "He'll try though. Won't he?"

Winry gazed in the direction the children had gone. "We're going to have to try and stop that then." Suddenly the anger, sadness and pain, she had been holding since she saw Ed's torn wrists came rushing out. "FUCK SAKE! Mustang, IF he can get home you should be able to find where he lives and get him the fuck out of there!"

Mustang looked at her, "I should yes but he's quick and he won't let us tag along."

"Then do it without him noticing. He's twelve, it can't be that hard."

Mustang let out a dry chuckle. "Problem is with that logic, he's no ordinary twelve year old. He's Edward Elric a child prodigy, still the only child to pass the state alchemy exam. He's got more brains then we're giving him credit for. Can be a blessing and a curse, genius can be."

"You would know, would you sir?" Hawkeye stepped up behind them. "I think you may be overreacting. But if you want to know where he lives just get the shadow alchemist to follow him."

Mustang's dark eyes widened. "I can't believe I forgot about him."

Winry looked between the others. "Who?"

"The shadow alchemist. He's just good at following, uses alchemy to do it."


Both children were exhausted. They had been rushing around town for ages. They had finally sat outside a café, which luckily was cheap. They had spent most of the money Mustang had given them.

Elysia had just been treated to Ed inhaling his food and they were now sitting, talking.

Elysia suddenly checked her watch. "Damn. Ed it's nearly five we had better get going…?" the second the words were out of her mouth he was shooting away toward headquarters, she picked up the bags quickly and followed.

Ed kept running at his fastest speed, and found himself running into Al's arms.

Al scowled, and Ed felt his heart fill with dread. "Al. I ran all the way." The man simply stared at him, Elysia ran round the corner. She froze, she had heard enough rumours about Al to know who he was and fear him. Ed glanced round "Elysia?"

She smiled quickly "Nothing. Good seeing you, bye." She rushed off, waving. Al watched her go.

Ed turned back to his brother. "What's wrong Al?" Al began walking back to the apartment.

Elysia walked into the building, slowly, lost in thought.

"Elysia, is something wrong." The girl looked at her mum, and then burst into tears.

"Mum! Mum! I saw him. Big brother's brother, the murderer. He's going to going to hurt him. Mum! We're got to save big brother." Gracia hushed her daughter gently, knowing exactly how she felt.


When they arrived back at the apartment Al still hadn't said a word.

"Al? Is something wrong?"

The man whirled around, glaring; he was pissed off and needed to take it out on something. "Yes. You were late."

Ed sucked a breath in and pressed against the door. "Here's your choice LITTLE brother. Either you suck me off or in the closet, for 20 minutes, without manacles. Though if you choose to suck me off and back out your going in the closet for 1 hour with the manacles."
