Chapter 10

An Old Friend Returns

The next day, Scar woke up in the hospital bed he had watched his daughter lay sweating in the day before. He covered his head with his right hand when he heard someone pass by the door, almost forgetting what happened yesterday. He felt bandages covering most of his scar so he lowered his hand but felt someone next to him when it touched the bed's surface. He turned his head to his right and almost jumped in shock. He yelled, waking up the person next to him, who to the person's own dismay, was Edward Elric. They both yelled, alerting the people in the hall, Skye and Alphonse.

"What is it!" they yelled, but their question was soon answered. When they walked in Ed and Scar were both out of the bed and against opposite walls, wide-eyed and breathing heavily. They looked at Skye and Alphonse with Ultimate Death Rays. Alphonse and Skye giggled with little sweat drops forming on the side of their faces.

"HOW COULD YOU STICK ME ANYWHERE NEAR THIS PERSON?" the shocked 'patients' exclaimed as they stared harshly at their friend/daughter/brother. "Well . . . we needed the bench for for the person who saved us. You should thank her when she wakes up. Unless you want to sleep on the cold dirty floor." responded Skye calmly. "I DON'T CARE IF I HAVE TO SLEEP ON THE GROUND OUTSIDE! AS LONG AS I'M AS FAR AWAY FROM HIM AS I CAN POSSIBLY GET!" the two screamed as they pointed at each other from across the room, still staring at Skye and Alphonse.

After the two enemies finally calmed down, they sat down and ate the food that Skye and Alphonse had scavenged out of the destroyed hospital cafeteria. It wasn't as good as the day before, but it was good enough for them for the time being. "So, she came in and electrocuted Lust? Wow. She must be powerful," said Ed as he finished a dry loaf of bread and a glass of warm juice that, even though it tasted nasty, was better than the almost expired milk Skye was drinking. "Yeah, but she fainted from all of the power she use to control those wires. She's still a beginner," added Scar as he finished off some mildly warm oatmeal mush. "It was a spectacular fight and I think we still should thank her for her kind deed." commented Skye as she alternated between eating a slightly stale pancake and rebandaging Ed's wound.

A yawn came from behind their grouping and everyone turned around to see the mysterious savior stretching her tan arms and sitting up to look around when the stranger's ruby eyes and Skye's blood red eyes met and they immediately recognized each other. "Skye? " asked the stranger. "Kanden?" Skye said in return. They both screamed and everyone was startled. Skye jumped up from where she sat and ran over to the girl that she had just called Kanden. They hugged each other and smiled. "I missed you!" said Skye as she sat next to Kanden. The rest of the group looked confused.

"Oh! I'm sorry. I forgot introductions. Guys, this is Kanden, one of my best friends from Ishbal. Kanden, these are my newest friends. Edward and Alphonse Elric . . ." She pointed at them and they raised their hands. "So you're the Fullmetal Alchemist. Nice to meet you!" said Kanden, holding her hand out to Al. "Nice to meet you to. And next time get your names right." Edward said agitated as he cut in between Al and Kanden and shook her hand. "Oh! Sorry!" Kanden said as she shook Ed's hand. "And this is my father, Scar." Skye said continuing her introductions. "Wow! It's nice to finally meet you! When we were kids, Skye talked about you all the time. How you were such a great alchemist and all." Kanden said enthusiastically. Scar stared at Skye embarrassedly and she just smiled nervously. Then Skye and Kanden smiled at each other as everyone continued eating.
