Hey buys, sorry I haven't updated in a while, I just had writers block :P Also, about Ed's amnesia, he remembers bits and pieces. He basically has a mix of Retrograde amnesia and stereotypical amnesia.

Slip Up

Ed walked into Central Command, and clocked in. He sighed and walked into Colonel Mustang's office. He stifled a yawn and sat down in the chair uncomfortably. Al stood behind the chair.

"So let me get this straight," started the flame achemist, pinching the bridge of his nose. He cracked open his eyes and directed his gaze upon the blonde headed confused boy. "Ed has amnesia? " he asked irratatedly.

"Yes, sir." came Al's reply.

"Oh this is too good." the colone said sarcastically. He took a deep breath and glanced at Ed's bandages, which were wrapped tightly around his head. "Well, I'm assuming you got amnesia from that blow to the head." Ed nodded. "Did you at least remember to do paperwork for Hawkeye?"

"What paperwork?" Ed asked , tilting his head.

"Well, it appears your in for a mouthful. LIEUTENANT!" he called leaning back in his chair.

"Er- Colonel Mustard?" Ed asked innocently. Roy's eye twitched.

"What did you call me?" Roy spat, excpecting back talk from the teen, but instead, an appologetic look took over Ed's face. Ed opened his mouth, but he coldn't find words to say. Mustang had amlmost forgotten about his amnesia.

Al crouched in front of Ed. "Ed," he whispered. "His name is-"

"Colonel Mustang?" a woman's voice said as she stepped into the office. This woman was none other than Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye, the best sharpshooter in Amestris. She approached the man's desk and brushed her blonde bangs out of her face. "You called?"

"Yes. The shrimp didn't do the assigned paperwork." He said with a smirk.

Riza sighed expecting Ed to do the usual, to flip out and throw a tantrup. But he didn't. She furrowed her eyebrows and walked slowly over to Ed, who stared at her with large eyes. She put a hand on his forehead. "Edward, are you feeling okay?" She asked.

"...Who's she?" Ed asked Al. Riza gasped when she realized the bandages and immediately understood.

"Ed, who did this to you?"

"Her name .Ed has amnesia." Al said.

"Yes, I understand that." She said.

"Was it Scar?" asked the Colonel.

"I don't know."

"Was it one of the homunculi?" asked Al.

"I don't know."

Al sighed and hugged his brother.

"Are you insane?" Ed tensed in the hug as he heard Damien's voice.

"I don't know." Ed replied. Al hugged him tighter, thinking he was just repeating himself.

"Wait..." said Ed, not realizing he was talking aloud. "Did you do this?!"

Al pulled out of the hug and looked his brother in the eyes. "What? Of course not!" Al denied, sightly offended that his own brother would-

"No, no, not you." Ed told his brother. The two dogs of the military gave him a crazy look.

"Bathroom. NOW." Damien growled. Ed whimpered and stood up abruptly, fear etched on his face.

"Fullmetal?" Roy asked. Ed walked at a quick pace towards the men's washroom.

The three quickly followed. Ed locked the door to the bathroom behind him and put his back against the door and slid down. He held his head in his hands. Shit. Now they suspect something. If they find out...

"You fool, How dare you be so-... so stupid!" Damien materialized next to Ed before kicking him in his bruised ribs. Ed cried out.

"Brother?!" Al cried from the otherside.

"Fullmetal, let us in!" The flame alchemist slammed his fist against the door. Ed flinched.

"Please, Ed you have to let us in, whatever it is, we can help you with it!" Riza yelled through the door.

"Idiot." growled Damien, pulling Ed into a standing position by his hair, only to knee him in the stomach. "Do you not remember my warning." Ed shook his head, sobbing softly. "If you do not cooperate, I will take over."

"What?!" cried out Ed, horrified.

"Oh yeah, I gave you amnesia. My bad. But you should be thanking me, for if you didn't have amnesia, and you slipped up like that. Your punishment would have been much more severe, maybe even fatal. I don't need you anyways. You are worthless. Anways, we need to get you out of here."

"W-why? Everyone is s-so nice." He asked pleadingly.

"Because I don't want them to hear you scream during your punishment..."

"W-what?"

"What do you mean 'what'? You slipped up! A punishment is a punishment!"

Ed shook his head and began to sob hysterically. "N-no!" This can't be happening. It can't go on like this. I need help. But...Al...H-he might hurt Al...

"Get up you piece of shit!"

Ed couldn't take this anymore. His breathing increased. "HELP! HE'S GONA TAKE ME! HE'S GONNA HURT ME! HELP! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" He screamed at the top of his lungs.

"ED! OPEN THE GOD DAMN DOOR! THIS IS AN ORDER!" Barked Mustang.

"FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!" Damien screamed and punched Ed full on in the mouth.

BANG!

The door busted down with a thud and the three entered.

"B-brother?" Al asked.

The golden haired boy stood in the middle of the room, and whiped the blood from his mouth with his automail arm. His bangs were in his eyes and he chuckled darkly.

"Fullmetal are you alright?" asked Roy in a concerned voice.

"Fullmetal?" Riza gasped, it was like two voices were coming from the same body, one identical to Ed's...the other, much more menacing. She jumped when he let out a maniacal, malicious laugh."Guess again."
