"Fullmetal," Mustang said crossly, "will you please stop pouting and pay attention!" The annoyed chibi crossed his arms and scowled at him angrily.
"Tch… sure, sure, Fuehrer," he replied mockingly, "and will you please stop being you." Mustang grinned widely and leaned back in his chair.
"So, you're saying that its part of you to be an annoying pouter?"
"ARGH!!!" Mustang chuckled and pulled a folder from his desk. Ed eyed it warily and took it as it was handed to him. Opening it, he read the contents.
"Ah, so they want me back, again?" he sighed closing it.
"Yes," he nodded looking at him seriously. "You never finished your mission in the first place, Major." Ed paused at glared at him from the corner of his eye.
"Fine. But, what am I to do with the children? They are no longer wizards; therefore not allowed within the school premises."
"And?" Ed crossed his arms and looked at him pointedly.
"Seriously… I promised to be their teacher. I can't leave them," Ed replied looking away calmly.
"Really?" Ed turned at his new dark demeanor.
"Being a dog of this military, Fullmetal, you are under my complete jurisdiction. You are an important asset of this military!"
"THEN WHY DID YOU SEND ME AWAY??!!" Ed cried standing up quickly. Mustang stared coolly at him. Ed gave an annoyed cry and slammed his fist against the nearby wall.
"Do you honestly think, Edward," he said looking away from him, "that I know nothing about you? I know more than you think." Ed blinked at being called by first name before clenching his fists.
"What does that have to do with anything?" he growled. Mustang shrugged and stood up. Walking around his desk he looked down at the chibi alchemist; much his dissatisfaction.
"Edward, I sent you there to learn the truth. Don't get me wrong, but…" he paused and closed his eyes.
"I know what you hold most dear in life, kid. I know the 'truth'. You must figure it out."
"H-huh? What 'truth'?"
"You are dismissed, Fullmetal."
"W-wait…! Tell me wha…!"
"He said you were dismissed," a new voice said calmly behind him. Ed turned at glared up at the blonde sentinel. He growled and pointed accusingly at his superior.
"Don't think you know about me, idiot!" He turned and stormed out of the room. Mustang sighed and returned to his seat.
"What did you conversation mean, sir?" Hawkeye asked after she took her normal spot behind him. Mustang turned to look at her.
"He has to find this 'truth' himself. When he finds it out, well, the world will have no longer have a place."
"What do you mean?" Mustang winked at her and turned around.
"That love is too strong and powerful for the world to withstand." Hawkeye nodded slowly not totally comprehending his words.

"E-eh…? Why!" Al cried shaking his hand at him. Hohenheim sighed and stared down at his son.
"I told you, Alphonse, you made a promise so you will keep it," he said calmly.
"N-no! You made a promise too, otou-san! You said you wouldn't leave me!" he cried running forward and grasping him tightly, "you said you wouldn't… you wouldn't…" he broke off crying like a small child; something not expected from a boy of fifteen. Hohenheim sighed and grasped the distressed boy back.
"Alphonse… I have a job to do. The wizards aren't much help at the moment and… an old friend needs the access of the Gate." Al froze and looked up at him with tears still adorning his cheeks.
"G-gate? Oi! I control the…"
"No!" Al jumped, startled at his sudden harshness.
"This is something that does not require the Philosopher's Stone. Your job waits at Hogwarts."
"B-but…!"
"No," he sighed. He turned and started walking away.
"W-wait, otou-san!!" he cried running after him. Hohenheim didn't look back.
"OTOU-SAN!!!"
"A-Al?" Al turned and saw Ginny standing fearfully behind him.
"Are you alright? You were screaming." Al bowed his head and closed his eyes.
"No… I'm alright," he sighed looking up again, "it's nothing." Ginny nodded slowly, not believing him, and turned around.
"We have to enter the platform… before the train leaves." Al smiled and waved his hand back and forth.
"Right, which one? Nine or ten…?"
"Nine and three-quarters." Al's jaw hung open comically at her.
"Wait… what?" he asked looking around, "there's no nine and three-quarters!" Ginny smiled and grabbed his hand.
"Ah! Come on… I'll show you!" Al gave a cry as she pulled him towards the barrier between the two platforms. She began to run straight at it. Al closed his eyes and braced for the compact. It never came. Opening his eyes, he looked around him and saw, with amazement, a bustling crowd of wizards and a large sign with the words 'Platform Nine and Three Quarters'.
"Sugoi…"
"Come on! We're late!" Al followed after her and onto the train.
"Oh! Where' our luggage…?" Ginny waved her hand dismissively at him.
"Don't worry about that," she said looking seriously at him, "Your father took care of that."
"Oh…AGH!" he cried startled falling forward as the train lurched.
"Ow…" he said rubbing his head. He looked up and saw Ginny's bright red face.
"A-ah, gomenasai!" he said sitting up quickly. They looked away from each other a while before Ginny turned.
"What does 'go-men-a-sigh' mean?" she asked in confusion, "you say it a lot…"
"Oh… 'gomenasai' is Japanese for 'I'm sorry'…" he said grinning.
"Oh! I get it now." Al smiled and laid his head against the back of his seat.
"If only you were here brother…"
Silly child…
"W-wait… what? Where are you! Come back!!"
The voice laughed, what a small naïve child… how weak…
"No! I'm not weak! I just…!"
No… you are mine, child. Mine. I can and shall use you as I wish.
"W-wha…?"
Good-bye, child.
"Al?" Al jumped and looked at Ginny.
"Are you alright?"
"Yeah… I'm fine." Ginny eyed him warily. She sighed and crossed her arms.
"You hold a lot of secrets inside, Al… that's not good." Al's expression darkened and he looked straight at her.
"You deserve nothing," he growled standing up., he threw open the door and stormed out. Ginny sat stunned in his wake.
"A-Alphonse…?"

"Alright, Fullmetal," Mustang said standing, "your 'ride' is here." Ed walked out with Harry, Hermione, and Ron on his tail.
"'Ride'? Ah, well… guess we're going then," he said winking misheviously at him. Mustang sighed and stepped back.
"Eh? Where are you goin…?" He stopped abruptly when a flash appeared before him. Before they were drawn into it, he heard Mustang call.
"I made some arrangements with an old friend."
"WHAT?!" Ed cried over the noise. He turned sharply when Hermione gave a startled cry. The Gate of Truth loomed over them. The doors swung forth and the black extending arms pulled them into its endless depths.
"Back to England!" Harry cried bracing himself for the impact. Ed turned and saw someone disappear into the darkness.
"It couldn't have been...."

"Well," Winry laughed leaning against the wall, "seems our plan is not a failure after all." Carter looked in confusion at her.
"Whatever you say…"
"No, you idiot," she scowled making him jump, "it seems our little friend is coming to Hogwarts."
"Eh? The pipsqueak?" Winry sighed and looked pointedly at him.
"No, his lovable little brother." Carter grinned and stood up.
"Well…. why didn't you say that in the first place? I'm going to have a lot of fun with him…" he broke of laughing manically.
