I need at least three reviews before i update this again

Roy still couldn't believe he was in another world and it was so... full of trees and dented monsters. However he didn't have time to take everything in because a now strangely human ALphonse was dragging him through the portal and past a bunch of crowded shops where every town person seemed to be hiding. By now he could hear and see a fray going on... and his gut told him Edward was the cause of it. Sure enough he was right...and frankly he was appalled..Edward and a dark haired boy about his age were in the middle of a hand to hand fight and it looked like neither kid was giving up.

Edward soon had Ash pinned to the wall by holding on to his throat. Ash started to thrash about as he struggled to get free. Fortuently for Ash he had some fighting skills as well. He lifted his knee and kicked Edward in his stomach hitting a recent wound from the boss. Ash's eyes widened in surprise when he saw the red substance pour heavily from the wound and down his side. Edward fell back and clutched his wound and grimaced. "Why did you have to do that?" he gasped in pain and shock. "I dont even know you." His eyes momentarily clear. Hypno sensed that he was coming to and so he gently but firmly grabbed Ed's face and forced him to look at him and the pendulum. his momentarily clear eyes turned blank again and once more he was pounding into Ash with fierce determination.

"Thats why i did that!" Ash screamed as he ducked another punch. "The real question is why are you doing this to me?" He spat.

"MY boss told me to..I have no choice." Edward growled. "I will do whatever he tells me!"

"Umm...why don't you listen to your brother instead?" Ash prompted hopefully but Edward only stared blankly at him faltering slightly. "Br..other?" Edward asked confused.

"So you are seriously telling me that that ant eater thing is what is controlling Ed?" Roy asked increadiously.

"In a nutshell yes." Alphonse said dryly. "So i was thinking that maybe you shou..." Alphonse started to say only to see that Roy was no longer listening to him instead walking towards the fray as he pulled his gloves on. "He didn't even bother to listen to what i have to say..." Alphonse said wirily. He winced as he watched Roy just barely block a kick in the groins. "ooh that woulda hurt.." Alphonse winced.

"Edward as your guardian I am going to have to kill you for aiming for my privates." Roy said flatly.

"I Don't know you old man!" Edward hissed as he landed a kick in Roy's shin causing him to stumble back. "OK now that just hurt my pride." Roy groaned as he held onto his leg and tried to wheel back the pain. His ears pircked slightly when he heard a sound that sounded some what like laughter. he turned and saw that this hypno creature was laughing hysterically at the whole seen.

"Stupid creature." Roy mumbled. Come on Roy you were in the ishballian war! You killed people twice as strong as Edward..and they weren't bleeding like a gutted pig like Edward was." He thought viciously as he tried to will himself up to the challenge. "Edward i blame myself for getting you into this situation.. I didn't protect you like I should but..that is no reason to attack me." Roy said hastily as he kept dodging more blows but not really fighting back. He didn't want to hurt Edward anymore than he was.

He was getting annoyed with the Hypno's laughter. He couldn't take it anymore without even a second thought he snapped his fingers and lit the monster on fire. "Whose laughing now freak?" he asked angrily but stopped scowling and turned in surprise to Edward...who was ...laughing...

His eyes were still blank but there was a hint of awareness in them..not much but still some. "What a moron." Edward trilled as he continued ot laugh. "Stop drop and Roll i repeat stop drop and roll!" He mocked a bit of his old self clearly coming out. Ash noticed that there was enough distraction so he sent out his squirtle and ordered it to dose it with water. soon it was charred and soaking wet..and no longer laughing..although Edward still was.

It was honestly warm to hear Edward laughing despite the circumstances.. he never ever really did. However they weren't able to smile for long because they realized that even though HYpno was now out for the count and in a pokeball..Edward was still very much not all there..and still under its control...
