Chapter 12 – My Day Just Got Worse
'Lila, wake up.'
'No more.'
'Come on, get up.'
'Stop. No more.' It was about 13 when I said this. The tests were still going on. Only one nurse had peaked my interest. She had long reddish hair and dark blue eyes. She was always nice when getting me up for the day, but today was different. She had slight anger in her voice. I look up and she was bleeding.
'What happened to you Ivy?'
'Nothing to worry about. Just an experiment gone wrong.'
'Oh…. Which number was it this time?'
'Number 58. I tried to stop them, but the scientists made me get out.'
'Oh….. I'm sorry that I couldn't help you out.'
'Lila, you know as much as I know, that you can't get out without those keys.'
'Oh really.' I clap my hands and get my hands out of my chains. 'See, told you.'
Ivy just laughed and mentioned something along the lines of me being the most smartest person here. I smiled and I followed her to the lab for more 'torture'. As we walked, I heard a familiar scream from behind a door.
'M-Miya?'
'What was that Lila?'
'AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!' That screamed with straight to my soul and I knew who's scream it was.
'MIYA!!'
I open my eyes to see the clock strike 4:00pm. I get up and look for Isabella. She is gone and Ed is sitting on the other bed asleep. I go over to the door and there is a note.
"Lila, I'm taking Al, Miya, and Isabella to my parent's house for a few weeks. Al said that Ed may even enjoy the alone time. Al has to get a few for Ed's arm and leg to, so it may take a little longer. See ya in a few weeks!!
-Signed Sapphire."
There was a hand print that was the size of Isabella's hand. I laughed and remembered that it was still my birthday. I was still in danger of a birthday party. I ran into the restroom to change you-know-what-and-if-you-don't-then-go-to-the-last-chapter-like-a-good-reader. It had gotten worse than the last time.
"Oh just peachy. How long do these last again? 7 days?" I mumbled to myself. I sighed and took ANOTHER shower. I get dressed in a red dress. YES a RED dress. I sighed and looked in the mirror. My hair was a mess! I grabbed Ed's brush and violently began pulling out the knots. The red was still at the bottom of my black hair. I liked the way it looked though. I thought of a really funny song and sang it.
"Happy birthday to me!
Happy birthday to me!
I'm finally sixteen!!
Now I have to leave!!"
I started laughing really hard till my side hurt. I calmed down, and walked out of the door. There what I saw scared me. There was a strange transmutation circle in the middle of the room. There on Ed's bed was Envy tying Ed up. Ed looked at me with desperate eyes, like he was telling me to run. I stood my ground though.
"If it isn't the black head!"
"If it isn't the palm tree!" I countered back.
"I'M NOT A DAMN PALM TREE!! WRATH! DO IT NOW!" I felt little hands knock me into the middle of the circle. I feel face first. There was blood coming out of my nose. I look up to see a menacing looking boy with long black hair. One of his arms were longer and darker than his other.
"ENVY!! I thought we wanted Sorrow! NOT this….this……OLD HAG!!" OH NO! hE DID NOT JUST CALL ME OLD!!
"I'M NOT OLD YOU LITTLE BRAT!!"
"I'M NOT A CHILD!!"
"SHUT UP YOU TWO! You guys sound like a married couple!"
Me and wrath both yelled, "EEWWWW!"
"Whatever Wrath, just get it over with. We need to get rid of her so we can get Sorrow's total attention."
"I KNOW! I KNOW!" Wrath clapped his hands and put them on the circle. It started to glow and I was horror struck. I couldn't move my feet. I look in the corner of my eye and see Ed shoving Envy off with his feet. He jumped off the bed and shoved me out of the circle, right as it reached full power. His eyes grew cloudy and then glowed. I caught my breath and tears running down my eyes.
"EDWARD!!" I shot up and punched Wrath. He lifted his arms and the transmutation stopped. Ed fell to the ground gasping for breath and I was punching the shit out of Wrath. He was trying his best to stop me. Homunculi are the strongest inhuman things there are. I was not as strong as them, but adrenaline was pumping through my blood. I grabbed his neck, and threw him into the wall. I clapped my hands and the floor becomes a spring where Envy and Wrath now stood. It launched them into the air. I clap again and I make the ground outside swat them 'probably' to the next city.
"COME BACK AND I WILL KILL YOU!!" I huffed and ran over to Ed. I shook him. Ed slowly opened his eyes. Each were still glowing from the transmutation. He sat up and held his head.
"You ok Ed?"
"No…. I feel light headed." I smiled sadly and pulled his head to my chest. I stroked his head and………HIS BRAID FELL OFF!!
"OH.MY.GOD!!"
"What!?"
"YOUR HAIR FELL OFF!" I pulled back and showed him the hair that fell off, still in a braid. His hair was shorter now. (A/N His hair looks like when he went through the gate for the first time. Ep49 or 50 I think.) He reached back and tried to feel his hair. I saw his eyes sadden and I pulled him into a hug.
"Why did you push me out of the way?"
"The same reason who beat up Wrath."
"I did that so Al wouldn't have to see his older brother dead."
"That's what I was going to say."
"It'll grow back. Promise." I giggled and I could feel that he was smiling. HE was still in a hug form. I was sitting uncomfortably. YOU would be too if your legs were in the position of the splits. I pulled away from him.
"Getting a little affectionate are we Ed." He blushed and hid his eyes.
"I-I-It just relaxing I-I guess."
"Are you really ok?"
"I feel…. Different."
"Different how?"
"Well the hair is one thing, but my bones feel like they are growing shorter."
"Shorter……Let me see the transmutation circle." I get up and observe the circle. It was nothing that I have ever seen before. I checked every little detail, till I heard Ed scream. I look at him and his body rapidly grew shorter.
"ED!!" I run back over to him. He looks at me and backs away.
"Where's Al? Who are you?"
"Y-You don't remember me?? WAIT! How old are you?"
"Why should I tell an old person like you?"
"Cause this old person knows where Al is. How about that." Ed huffed and looked away.
"I'm 10 years old, so what. Now tell me where Al is. I have to fix him." OH GREAT!! THAT TRANSMUTATION CIRCLE MADE HIM GROW YOUNGER!! I guess it was good idea for me to rent an apartment. I work so long for that and now this. I guess he can take Miya's bed till I can fix him.
"Well Ed, Al went away for a few weeks with my friends. He'll be back. He told me to look after you till he came back."
"I can take care of myself."
"No you can't"
"YES I can."
"NO YOU can't."
"YES I CAN!!"
"Whatever. Come on. We have to get you packed for my apartment. You're going to live me till he comes back."
"I'm going to stay here, AWAY from YOU."
"Oh really. I guess I'll tell Al about last night then."
"What about last night?"
"You don't remember?"
"What happened?!"
"I'll tell you if you come." I knew the mind of a 10 year old. They are extremely curious. Ed nodded and sat at a bed. I began packing the clothes that Ed had little of. I finished packing his and my stuff. Ed grabbed a hold of my skirt and followed me out of the dorms. It took about 30 minutes to reach the apartment. The whole time, Ed was complaining on how his feet hurt, His head hurt, How he was hungry, and worst of all……. He needed the restroom.
"ARE WE THERE YET!!"
"Almost, hold your horses."
"If I wait any longer, then I won't be able to hold them any longer."
"I know you have to go, but wait a little longer. We're almost there. See, just to the left up here." I pointed to the tall white building. We walked a little faster and we headed to the front desk once we got inside.
"Hello miss. Room for two?"
"Yes, I already have one rented for Rose."
"Oh, why yes Miss Rose. Here are your keys."
"Thank you."
"Ugh….. Miss Rose."
"Yes?"
"Is he going to be alright?" The man pointed to Ed. I looked and Ed was crossing his legs and closing his eyes tight.
"He WILL be once we get up to our room. Come on Ed." I held out my hand to him, but he didn't take it. He was to busy not to go in his pants. I sighed and picked him up. I waked him to the room. I sit the suitcases on the bed once I unlocked the door. Ed was squirming more now. I walked fast over to the restroom. I kicked the door open, and placed him in front of the toilet. I stood back so he could go, but he was AGAIN to busy not to go in his pants. Ed was grabbing himself now and biting his lip.
"Great." I whispered so he couldn't hear. I squat down and unhook his belt, and then I pulled his pants and boxers down. I saw him blush after he noticed what had happened. I picked him up and sat him on the toilet. I patted his head and left him to his business. I decided to unpack. I put Ed's clothes in the drawer in his room. The man at the counter had owned 10 of these houses and I had one for a few months. I then unpacked my clothes.
"Everything seems to be in order." I walk down the hall to start dinner. I heard the toilet flush when I walked past its door. The kitchen was about 5 feet away from the bathroom. I got some vegetables, beef, and milk. If you know why I put out milk, then that meant I was making stew. YEP! GOOD OL STEW! WHERE MILK IS TO BELONG!! I heard little footsteps behind me. I look and Ed had gotten smaller.
"How old are you Ed?"
Ed held up three fingers. Such a big change since the last time.
"Come here Ed." I bent down and opened my arms. Ed scooted into them. His automail arm and leg were to big for him. I clap my hands and made them a little smaller. I had practice with these when I was 7 years old.
"Where mommy?"
"You're staying with me for a little while. Your mom went on vacation with Al for a little while. She said that we needed to get to know each other more, and she wanted to go with Al somewhere special."
"Mommy doesn't like me anymore?" Ed looked up and I could see tears forming in his eyes. His breathing became fast and hard.
"No, no. Ed, she loves you very much. She even told me a secret. You wanna hear?" He nodded and still gazed into my eyes with those yellow sun eyes.
"She told ME to tell YOU that she wants you to have lots of fun here and when she comes back, that you can share all your stories to her." Ed smiled a little and bent his head in my chest. I picked him up and sat him on the counter.
"You want to help me cook tonight's dinner?" Ed nodded and sat a little straighter. I ruffled his hair and got to work. Ed helped me put the vegetables in the stew sauce stuff, mixed them in, and even held his nose like I did when I poured in the milk. We looked at each other and broke out laughing. I picked Ed up and sat him at the kitchen table chair.
"This is going to taste good. I hope you're a better than I am Ed." He smiled and grabbed his spoon. Put some stew in a bowl for him and some for me. I sat down and watched him take the first bite.
"Is it good?" He nodded and shoveled more in his mouth. I took his lead and did the same. 'I wonder why he doesn't talk much? Maybe he is shy.'
After eating, I had started doing the dishes. I finished with the plates. I turned to Ed and saw that he was asleep with his head on the kitchen table. I walk over and picked him. I walked him into his bedroom. I dug into his clothes looking for something smaller to fit him. I found a black tank top. I switched his shirt with the tank top and his pants with his boxers.
"Mommy?"
"Hey Ed. You want to go to bed?"
"Uh huh."
"Ok, I'll leave the door if you need something in the middle of the night. My bedroom is just to the right." I pointed to the direction of my bedroom just in case he didn't know his left from right. Ed nodded and closed his eyes. I carried him over to the bed and laid him down. I covered him up and stood back up.
"Sister, wait." I look back down at Ed and he had his arms out.
"No go. Give hug first." I shrugged and gave him a big hug. I didn't mind if he called me sister. I felt complete with him saying that. I gave him a kiss on the forehead and then I stood up and left. I slipped into my night gown and lay down. I soon fell asleep. BUT for how long?
Ria: (asleep on floor and on top of Al.)
Al: Ria was drunk people. I think she was drunk off of cold medicine. IF that is even possible.
Ed: AAHHHHHHH!
Al: What is it brother? OH MY GOD!! IS THAT A DRESS!!
Ed: GET BACK HERE ANNOYED BY YOU!!
Annoyed by you: AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!! You look very pretty Ed.
