Ikiru's POV
Al and I made it to Lior and ran into Scar, who was fighting with Kimblee, the Crimson Alchemist and one of Greed's ex-goons. Kimblee lost and was turning Al into a bomb, and Scar, who had ripped off one of his arms to get rid of Kimblee's alchemy on said arm, put his other arm into Al. Scar went away and a huge red glow appeared. Everything was gone and I was underneath a ton of sand next to Al. We were soon unburied and there was Ed.
"Ikiru?"
"Ed!" I hugged him, then we looked at Al and opened his chest plate. He was the Philosopher's Stone. So that's what Scar was doing. We ran away because, knowing our luck, we were fucked. While we ran Al told Ed everything.
"Why didn't you tell us Ikiru?" Ed snapped.
"Because Pride would've ordered me to kill you and I wouldn't be able to handle you and everyone I loved dying by my hands or the Homunculi. Any other questions? I have nothing to hide anymore."
"Really now?" I nodded and Al got this look on his face.
"How badly would you like to be with Brother?" I blushed, so didn't Ed.
"A-Al! That is not a question you ask Iru-chan!" I started to poke my fingers together.
"She said to ask her ANYTHING. So I took the opportunity." I spun around since I was in front of them. I pulled the string holding my shirt together.
"Are you sure you want me to answer that Alphonse? Because I can show better than tell." He would be blushing if he could've.
"N-N-Nevermind. Let's go!" We were going the back way to get to Resemble. By a river. We saw Falman and hid, only to find Havoc and Fuery.
We managed to get away from them only to be caught by Roy and Armstrong. Roy wasn't mad at us, but wanted to know why we didn't go to him. He told us how he tried to commit suicide but couldn't and I walked over slowly and grabbed onto his sleeve. He turned and looked at me.
"Ikiru?" I looked up and nailed him in the balls. He fell to the ground.
"I told you NEVER to bring that up. NEVER to remember. AND NEVER TO CALL YOURSELF A COWARD!" He held himself and nodded with tears going down his face.
"Right. I'm sorry." He got up and we started for Resembol. We made it and a man was talking to Ross. Ed ran over and kicked him in the face and started to freak out.
"What the hell are you doing here?" I ran over. It was Hohenheim. I walked over, all of my markings showing. He turned and look at me.
"Who are you?" I grabbed him by the collar.
"Ikiru Bradley! Sin! Your oldest sons love interest! Your worst fucking nightmare!" I knocked him square in the jaw. He shook his head and looked at me.
"Oh yes. I remember now."
"You fucking better Hohenheim!" He put his hands up in defense.
"Don't get to violent now."
"Too late fucko. You should've thought of that before you walked out on them." I would've spit in his face if a red glow hadn't appeared. "Go away Mother." She put a hand on my left shoulder.
"Ikiru. What have we been discussing?"
"Fucking nothing about Mr. Fucko here." I said, nodding my head in Hohenheim's direction on the ground.
"Well, FYI, demons do not spit in fucko's faces."
"I ain't kicking him in the balls, already did that today." Roy had ice now. "What am I supposed to do?"
"What do you think. Act upon what you did earlier to silence Al?"
"You mean be a Pumper girl?"
"Or so." I smirked.
"I love you Mother."
"I know." I let go of Hohenheim and tackled Ed to the ground, pulling the string completely so that my shirt came undone. I snuggled into the crook of Ed's neck.
"Edward-kun" Everyone lit up like a match.
"That's good Ikiru." I nodded and got off, fixing my top.
"Well then. What do we do now?" I asked.
"We get the military off the Elric Boy's asses. The Füher said that they kidnapped you." I nodded. A few days passed and Hohenheim left while Ed went to visit his mother's grave.
We were headed to central and Ed used Alchemy to change his hair color and Al into a statue.
"You're going to right Ikiru?" I nodded. "Are you going to put on a disguise?" I shook my head. "What?!"
"I'm going to wear my princess robes. I never wear them so Father won't see it coming" I went into the closet and grabbed my robes and changed. I came out and spun. "How do I look?"
I had on a pink mid thigh strapless dress with a sweetheart neckline that had a white flowing over dress on top that showed a little of the top of the dress, mid thigh white socks, and a headband with a little purple crown attached.
"Why are you're eyes pink?"
"Contacts... okay I can change my look because of the Homunculus part, kinda like Envy. I have all of their powers and then some." They nodded. "Let's go!" And we went.
We made it and Al went off while Ed went off to do something. I stayed in the room until Ed came and we left together. We made it to an arms factory and found Al with Sloth.
"Al! Get away from her!" All this shit happened and I ended up next to Sloth's water corpse since we killed her. Then 'Winry' appeared and ended being Envy and he stole Al.
"What the fuck! Everyone's stealing Al! What the fuck!" I told Ed were to go and we went. When we got to the underground city, Ed and I were greeted by Rose dancing in a giant ballroom. She danced with Ed a little bit and told him she loved him. I was about to say something when he did and Lyra appeared with a baby that Rose pronounced was her's. Ed and Lyra got into this really long conversation and Ed found out she was Dante.
"Very good boy. Sin, kill him. He knows too much." I shook my head.
"No." Her eye twitched.
"What?!"
"I won't kill Edward."
"And why not!?" I looked down, thinking of how this would end, and none of them were any better than the last. I looked up, tears at the corner of my eyes, smiling.
"I love him." Dante flipped the fuck out and Ed and I were sent through the gate. I sighed. Not again. Ed woke up and rubbed his eye. Then Hohenheim showed up and they started to talk about how equivalent exchange was bullshit.
"Ikiru?" I looked at Hohenheim.
"Yes?"
"You are able to go between this world and our world right? Being part angel and demon?" I nodded.
"However my powers in that case is very nitpicky and doesn't wanna work right now." Hohenheim was called away and Ed and I were trapped under a burning blimp. Fucking blimp.
We went back through the gate and ended up back in our world. Al was in the middle of a transmutation circle and Gluttony was going to eat him when Ed freaked and Envy got into a fight with Ed, and once Ed found out Envy was his half brother, Envy pierced his heart. I fell to my knees.
"There. One less pest." I screamed. "Calm down Sin. He's only a stupid human."
"He's not some stupid human you mother fucking crossdressing palm tree! He was my love! And now..." I looked at his dead body and all of the blood. My heart broke again. More than when Hughes died, more than when Mother 'died', more than anything. I couldn't move. Before I knew it, Al had used his body to bring Ed back to life. Ed was freaking and offered all of him to get Al back. I walked over and helped.
"Ikiru?"
"I don't want to lose you again Ed. I won't have it." We did the transmutation and ended up on the other side of the gate. Ed had to have prosthetic limbs and we headed to Transylvania. We hopped on a train.
"You sure you're okay with being on this side with me Ikiru?"
"I wouldn't want it any other way Ed." I grabbed his normal hand. We were going to go back, to see if Al was human or not, to see if it worked. And we were going to do it no matter what.
