A/N: Yeah. Know I said I'd update by the end of last week, but lately we have been getting SO MUCH lightning and that's the perfect way to have no wifi for an entire day.
Then when it was finally sunny again, disaster struck! My glasses broke and I can't see a thing! So I'm struggling to update this.
AND THEN Fanfiction was being a total butt and wouldn't let me update. But I finally figured it out.
This is my absolute favorite chapter out of all of them.
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
Infinity was smacked hard on the arm. She came out of her drowsy state and looked up at the bastard who woke her up. It was Nick and Adrian. Of course.
"Infinity! Come on!" Adrian said, tugging on her arm.
"Noooooo why the hell did you wake me uuuuuppppppp," Infinity whined. She rubbed her eyes and looked at her watch. "Ugh. Lets go meet Ed at the train station."
"Really? Infinity, no. There's something really cool we want to show you," Adrian pulled harder on her arm, causing Infinity to slump lifelessly on her side.
"I don't wanna mooovvee."
"It involves explosions."
"I'm coming!"
Ed sat on the metal bench at the train station. He didn't think he could ever be this pissed.
First, Infinity and her idiots just left him and Al at Dr. Marcoh's house. Then, they hardly found out anything about the Philosopher's Stone. Then, he had to push the heavy box containing Al all the way back to the station, which was incredibly difficult with only one arm. And now, they were late.
"Brother, don't be so upset," Alphonse said.
"I know, its just, we were so close. But at least we found out that a Philosopher's stone can be made, " Ed replied.
He looked at his pocket watch. It had been an hour and fifteen minutes. Still no Allocates. The train would be coming any minute now.
Meanwhile
Adrian passed Infinity a strange looking box, which she placed on top of three others.
"Don't you think we need more in the main shaft?"
"No! We need to put some in the side tunnels to build up the pressure!"
Yaya suddenly flew into the small shaft. "Alright guys! Every thing's all set! You ready to make Amestris history?"
"Yep! Come on!" Infinity beckoned everyone over in the middle of a large mine shaft. "So, what do we do now?" Thanatos deadpanned.
Infinity reached into her pocket. "Light a match, and run like hell."
Ed began to push Al towards the edge of the platform as the train rolled into the station. He was slowly making progress but he was getting there.
"Hey!" Ed looked up to see Dr. Marcoh bent over, out of breath.
"Dr. Marcoh..."
Dr. Marcoh reached into his pocket and pulled out a piece of paper. "This is where my materials are hidden," he handed he paper to Ed. "If you're sure you won't regret learning the truth, then take a look at this. Knowing you, you'll be able to find the truth within the truth," He turned around. "No. I've said too much." Dr. Marcoh began to walk away and waved. "I pray that the day will come when you get your bodies back."
Suddenly a huge explosion went off.
The whole train station shook and Ed lost his balance and fell. The pavement around him cracked and the train rattled dangerously on the tracks. Finally the shaking calmed a bit and Ed was able to regain his balance.
"Wha- What was that?!" Dr. Marcoh stuttered.
"I don't know," Edward said. He looked up to see the building at the top of the mountain gone and instead there was a smoldering crater with thick black ash spewing out of it. He began running towards it. "I'll be right back, Al!"
"Brother, wait!"
"WTUFJSYRDFYRPIWWRAADURRUOJLMTIWUTMGQRHDGIDUPSFIEQ ESYVIRIHHDGDGRIGODDAMMITINFINITYAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH HHH!"
"WHAT THE HELL INFINITY?! I THOUGHT YOU SAID WE WOULD BE FINE!"
"GOD DAMMIT ITS NOT MY FAULT YOU DID NOT CORRECTLY INTERPRET 'RUN LIKE HELL'!"
Another explosion came from behind the Allocates, knocking them off their feet. "Ewwwwwww I GOT COAL IN MY MOUTH!" Infinity screeched as she spit out black pebbles.
"Come on!" Adrian grabbed her arm and pulled her to her feet and they began running back up the steep mine shaft. Yaya looked nervously behind her as the glowing orange lava raced towards them. The Allocates coughed out ash and wiped their stinging eyes.
"I knew making Amestris' first volcanic eruption was a bad idea! Why do I even hang out with you guys?!" Nitori yelled as the side of the tunnel in front of them broke apart and boiling hot lava came pouring out. The Allocates screamed and jumped out the way as the ceiling began to crumble as well.
"Alright! Everyone stay behind me!" Infinity ordered.
"Well we're defiantly not going first!" Adrian yelled. The five friends lined up behind Infinity as she jumped in the air and slammed back down, making the lava in front of them separate
"Alright! Go! Go! Go!"
They ran through the small gap and continued down the tunnel. "WHY ARE WE EVEN RUNNING?! WE HAVE POWERS YOU KNOW!" Yaya screamed.
"YEAH BUT THAT RUINS THE FUN!" Infinity yelled back. "ALRIGHT 107 FEET TO GO!"
"YOU MAKE IT SOUND LIKE TWO FREAKIN' INCHES!" Adrian yelled. The walls around them began to collapse and lava poured out from all sides. The Allocates screamed and jumped back and forth, trying to stay out of the path of the hot liquid. Finally the top of the mount appeared. Infinity lunged and broke through the black ash cloud above and into the daylight, her wings suddenly appearing. She landed in a crouch on the ground and stood up.
She looked around at the pandemonium before turning to her friends, who were just climbing over the edge of the 'volcano'.
"Alright guys! We don't want to miss the train, do we?" Infinity said turning towards the group. Dark purple wings suddenly appeared on Nitori's back and she nodded. "Let's fly!" Infinity exclaimed, grabbing onto Nick, the only non-flyer of the group.
Ed ran past the screaming people as he darted through the streets towards the peak of the mountain. If only he could use alchemy...
"Hey Ed!" a voice called from above. Ed looked up and squinted in the sunlight as six silhouettes appeared in the sky. "Infiniy?!" he yelled back. "You're going the wrong way! Train station's behind you!"
"What the hell did you do?!" Ed yelled.
"Ugh. I am not missing that train. Hold this," Infinity tossed Nick to Nitori and swooped down towards Ed. Everyone was too busy panicking to notice Ed being grabbed by the shoulders by a flying teenager.
"Ah! Put me down!" Ed screamed.
"Oh shut up."
The train whistle blew just as the Allocates landed on the roof of the train. The train slowly began chugging forward and Infinity hopped off and scooped up Al. "Looks like you'll be riding coach this time, Al." They walked across the top of the train and jumped down in between the cars. Infinity opened the door to the train car and they took their seats.
This was going to be a loooooonnnggg ride.
After yelling at the Allocates for being dumb asses, Ed settled in with Al on the seat across from him. "Brother, what does it say?" Al asked. Remembering the paper Marcoh gave them, Ed pulled it out of his pocket and unfolded it.
"National Central Library, First Branch."
"I get it," Infinity said, suddenly appearing behind them. "If you want to hide something, put it plain sight. I do the same thing with my donuts in the fridge so that Adrian doesn't find and eat them."
"What's a donut?" Al asked.
Infinity sat down next to Ed. "Well, it's a ring of, oh never mind."
Ed sighed and stared at the paper. "There are clues to the Stone there." He said, smiling.
Dr. Marcoh shut his front door and his shoulders drooped in relief.
"I've been looking for you, Marcoh," a feminine voice said.
"Winry, our regular customer is here!" Pinako called. "Yo, granny!" Ed replied. "We're home."
"My word, what have you gotten into? And you've brought such a big crowd," Pinako took a puff from her pipe and looked at the Allocates. Infinity gave her a cheesy smile and waved.
Ed waved it off. "A lot has happened. Can you set us up again?"
Infinity walked over to Pinako and held out her hand. "This is General Infinity," Pinako shook her hand and looked at her quizzically. "Infinity? What a strange name." Infinity's teeth and fists clenched. "Whats it to you, Granny?" Infinity spat.
Pinako took a step back. "Pinako Rockbell," she stared at Ed. "It's been so long since I've seen you, and you've gone and grown smaller."
Ed's face darkened. "You know, normally, in this situation, it's 'grown bigger,'" Ed growled.
"If you had grown bigger, I would have said it," Pinako replied.
"What was that, you old hag?!" Ed screamed.
"Ed! Look out!" Infinity called as a wrench spun through the air and hit Edward in the head.
Adrian winced as the wrench collided with Ed. "Ohhh, that's gonna leave a mark." He looked up at the origin of the wrench: Winry Rockbell.
"I told you to call before you come for maintenance, idiot!" Winry yelled.
"Winry! Are you trying to kill me?!" Ed yelled and the blond girl giggled. "Welcome back," she said, suddenly switching to kindness mode.
"Yeah, yeah," Ed replied, rubbing his head. Infinity laughed. These next few days were going to be quite entertaining.
