AN: I AM SO SORRY! My computer had a spaz attack and wouldn't connect to my wifi. It really was done on time. This prank idea was given to me by Guesty Ghost (Guest). Enjoy and I hope your still reading Guesty Ghost to see your idea come to life! luluhrh yours is next chapter because I had to split it up into two.
In hindsight, it probably wasn't a good idea to prank Fullmetal while drunk. What? No Ed wasn't drunk, Havoc and Breda were. It was a halloween party that got started a little too early. Everything else was set up. People, mostly from the military plus their families, started to gather. People dressed up in many different ways. Cats, ghosts, vampires, werewolves, etc. Ed didn't though because well Ed was being Ed. They all mingled in the rarely used ballroom. Fake spiderwebs complete with fake spiders hung from the corners. Al and Ed were hanging out next to the snack table. Havoc and Breda soon joining them.
" 'ey guys. 'ow're you." Havoc slurred out. Ed raised an eyebrow and asked,
"Is it okay to be that drunk this early?"
He only got a shrug from Breda. The two 2nd Lts. stumbled away.
An hour later we find Ed slouched at one of the tables.
"Al let's go." Because as far as he can tell his armored brother isn't having much fun either. Before they could even get up to leave the 2nd Lts. came back. Noticeably less drunk and more crispy.
"Hey guys." Breda greeted.
"Hey." Havoc said.
"Hi. What do you guys want?" Ed asked.
"Only for you to try this." Havoc then brought out some food on a plate. It was meat but that was as far as Ed could identify. The plate was shoved under his nose and he grabbed one. Ed put it in his mouth and was hit with different seasons and spices used on the meat.
"This is good. What is it?" Ed asked.
"Cat." Breda said.
Both Ed and Al froze.
"What?" Came Al's horrified whisper. To bad they didn't notice.
"Cat. C-A-T. You know, meow." Havoc said.
Now multiple things happened at once, making it hard to recount the evenings happenings to Mustang afterwards. Al burst into tears, or as close as you can get in armor. The metal plates shaking and clanking against one another. Hollow sounding sobbing came from within. Al ran off, metal feet clanking. Ed got furious and tackled Havoc into a passing waitress, knocking all three of them to the floor. Breda was so startled he jumped into the arms of the person closest to him who happened to be Hawkeye, who still had her guns. Mustang appeared above the wrestling duo and helped the waitress up making sure she wasn't injured. Hughes then ran after Al. Hawkeye threw Breda sideways and into the table, knocking the punch bowl off and onto Mustang. That made his gloves, pink and useless. He growled and spun around, glaring murderously at Breda.
"Oh, you're gonna get it." Before Roy could take a step forward Fullmetal appeared in front of Breda and picked him up. He threw him to the ground and grabbed the back of his collar. He glowered as he stalked back to a now tied up Havoc. He grabbed Havoc in the same hand (automail, gotta love the superior strength) and dragged them out the door.
"Fullmetal? I was just about to kill them!"
"Yeah, well? Get in line. First they apologize to Al. Then Breda will be at the mercy of Hawkeye and whatever's left of him you can have. Havoc is mine. Said person gulped loudly then mouthed 'help me' to the rest of the room. No one even dared to move. Ed was mad and if you were smart enough you would stay away. After the three left the doorway the music started up again, as if two men weren't being dragged to their deaths. Riza and Roy followed after them. They followed the sounds of crying and found Hughes awkwardly patting Al's shoulder. Ed dropped the two men and stood back.
"Al? We're sorry. It was a prank and we didn't mean to make you cry. We though that Ed would find it gross or something. It was actually beef." Breda said trying to lighten his punishment.
When Havoc didn't saying Riza nudged (coughkickedcough) him while Ed sat on Al's lap, resting his head on Al's shoulder.
"Yeah, sorry Al." Havoc said.
"Really?" Al's voice echoed out.
"Yes, really." Havoc said.
"Oh." They all got the impression that the twelve year old was blushing. "I forgive you."
"Can you convince your brother to?" Breda muttered.
"Nope!" Al chirped.
Ed lifted his head and knocked his metal hand against Al's chest. Ed smiled then glared at the 2nd Lts. He jumped off Al's lap and grabbed the men again.
"Be back in a little while!" Ed called over his shoulder. Riza and Roy exchanged a look and grinned evilly. They chased after Fullmetal who already made it to the training grounds. There he untied Breda and Havoc and let them stand up.
Let's just say the fight was a blur for the men who woke up with various bruises, burns, and what looked to be a bullet grazing. They sat up from their place on the floor and winced. A pistol whip probably caused the headache, that or being punched/kicked by Fullmetal's automail. They stumbled to the infirmary for a different reason than being drunk and fell into beds. Ever since the pranking and the failing have started the nursing staff don't ask questions...yet. They want to know what happened too.
A week later Ed and Al found something very interesting in the floor of the training room. Ed smirked evilly ad looked at his brother.
"I have an idea."
AN: I have decided to split this into two parts. The second half was taking me too long to write. It will be posted. At the latest Friday. Don't worry luluhrh you idea is the second half of this, though they could be seen as seperate. Again sorry for the delay and I hope to hear from you guys!
