'Two pieces are added to the chessboard... But only one can be chosen as a sacrifice... Where's the fun without a little obstacle?'
-Jealousy-
I shot a glare at the kid that sat next to. "Miss Juliet? Is something the matter?" Speak of the devil. I put on a fake smile and lied to the kid, "I'm fine Selim, just thinking about a few things." "I see... then how about we go play in the garden!" the little brat suggests and starts to pull my arm. I thought to myself secretly, 'Damn brat doesn't know when to shut up! I just want to strangle him already.' As if my prayers were answered, Mrs. Bradley came into the room. "Selim," the calm mother calls, "it's time for Ms. Douglas to return to her duties." Selim pouts at the news and stands from where he sat, then I followed afterwards. That's right. I, the infamous Jealousy, have become a servant of the military.
::Three day's ago::
The first thing that happened right as soon as I came into the Furher's office was this, "I see you've returned from your mission General of the Army." "Huh? What are you talking about you old fart?" questioning what he just said, I raise an eyebrow to show how confused I was. He just chuckles and turns to face me, "I have appointed you the highest rank in the military. Father wants to use you for a highest purpose than just being an errand girl." I face-palm at this thinking, 'I knew this would happen.' "By today you go by the name of Katelyn Douglas," Wrath continues to explain my ranks and purposes. I didn't care one bit. All I want was to go and do my business, but I'm stuck listening to that man.
"So at four o'clock you-"
"Listen, I don't care about all this crap you put me in. All I ask is for you all to atleast trust me a little and give me some space, and that alsn goes for Pride."
"We can't allow our strongest asset to run free then that means you wouldn't mind keeping my son company to see if you can be trusted. Selim doesn't like to go out in public."
"I can see why," I scoffed, looking at a certain corner of the room. The shadow slightly moved in place, like as if it was nervous, until it went back to its normal state. My eye brow twitched at this. "From this day onward," a pamplet was tossed across the desk, "you will go by the name Juliet Douglas."
::Present Day::
Since then, I've been stuck with this identity from that day and I haven't been able to do things my way because of that.
-Me-
It was a normal day at Central, literally. My missions were pretty simple; like taking part in investigations, help rebuild towns, and etc. I'm still suspicious on Raven's actions though... I can already tell what was really going just by looking at his Jealousy on their side they probably know that I'm not from here. There are a few things tha has surpised me since I first arrived: 1. I can easily do alchemy, 2. I haven't died yet, 3. The characters from the fma 2003 ver. are here, and etc. I failed miserably at not getting close with anyone though... Ed, Al, Hughes (and family) Mustang, Riza, and etc. I know it's late for me to worry about that stuff after so long, but I still need to know why I'm here. "Miss Cairo there's a phone call for you from East HQ!" Lilith shouts. "Alright I here ya!" I stopped what I was doing and walked out of the small room.
+On The Phone+
Me: Mustang if this is you again, I'm gonna soak you on the other end!
?: It's only me Cat!
Me: Ed?
Ed: That's sure is a nice way to greet you're former partner.
Me: Shut up shorty! *anime vein* And who gave you the right to call me that!?
Ed: I'm not short! Atleast I'm taller than a certain excuse of an alchemist!
Me: By an inch Elric, an inch! Atleast I don't add a piece of hair or wear high heels to add to my height! And my alchemy is way better than you! (Even though I've only done it for a year or two...)
Ed: No I don't!
?: Brother stop it! You're not calling Cat not so you can insult her! I thought you two got over you're fighting.
Ed: Stay out of it Al!
Me: Al's there? Hey Al! Is this on speaker?
Ed&Al: What's a speaker?
Me:(Crap! I forgot that this is an ancient phone!) Ah...! I mean, can he hear me right now?
Al: Yep! Long time no see Cat!
Me: But I cant see you. *gasp* Are you watching me right now? Stalkers...
Ed: Can we please go back to the reason why I called!? I wanted to know if you're okay!
Me: Eh?
Ed: Well you were in the hosital last week so I- we wanted to know if anything was wrong!
Me: Ed...
Ed: Wh-what is it?
Me: *blush* Thank you... for worrying Ed... But I'm fine! Just a little after shock from getting killed by a killer!
Ed&Al: You what!?
Me: Oops... I let it slip...
Al: Are you sure that you're okay!?
Ed: Tell me the name of that bastard! I'll make sure to break every bone in his body till he stops breathing!
Me: (They're really worried about me... Even Ed! Maybe I'll mess them up a bit.) *smirk* Don't worry you two! I'm taking care of everything. He's stuck in my room for surveilance since the jail doesn't have enough room to house him yet.
Ed: ...
Me: (He's quiet now. Oh how I'd kill to see his face!) It's so nice to finally have some company after so long! Except for the fact he tries to kill me in the shower.
Al: ... Sorry Cat, but Ed won't be on the phone for a while.
Me: Ahahahaha! I was just joking. Anyway, what are you guys doin' anyway? There's no way that the two of you have the time to call me at a time like this.
Al: Well brother was really worried about you and...
Me: Huh? Al? Is anything wrong?
Al: Colonel Mustang said a few things about you that you never told us.
Me: What do you mean? (That bastard did not just-!)
Ed: He said that you were in a similar condition as us. I don't think you know what happened to us but I wanted to take this chance to ask you just to conferm my theory... Catherine, is your arm fake or not?
Me: ...
Ed: Cat?
Me: ...Sorry Ed! I forgot that Raven wanted to see me! Bye!
Ed: Wai-!
+End of Call+
Instantly, I hanged up before Ed had the chance to ask me. My face was slightly covered by my bangs as my head tilts downwards. 'I can't let them know... They mustn't know what happened,' I thought.
-Ed-
The phone, still in my hand, was silent. I didn't know what just happened, but now I'm more curious than before. 'That time when we were in Resembol,' her image flashed in my head, 'she never asked why we did it. It was as if she knew it would happen.' "I think we shouldn't pry in her personal bussiness. Cat never questioned us," Al reasons to me politely. I shook my head and informed him, "That's just it Al. She never asked us anything! I thought that Cat was being polite, but after seeing that I had an automail was what got me. You may trust her... but she's hiding something and I intend to find out what it is."
To Be Continued
Sup people! I know I know its been waaaay too long since I updated.
Ed: It sure has.
Fangirls: Kyaa~! Edward!
Me: Oh boy... Wrong Edward you douchebags! Cullen is in the other room! God they're annoying.
Roy: You sure want to be alone with Fullmetal.
Fangirls: Kyaaaa!
Me&Ed: Why are you here!?
Roy: Mercury said she was busy and wanted me to take her place as a co-star.
Ed: Says the guy who gets little screen time...
Roy: *anime vein* You sure can talk for some so-
Ed: Who are you calling small!?
Me: Sigh... I guess I'll end it... I do not own any FMA characters except Catherine, Alice, Jealousy and Fate! And I've decided to change the style of my pov's.
