The five guards around us were completely silent as we walked out of the military building in Central. As we got in two cars on our way back to the hotel room we had been staying in while the Curtis' went to get food to cook. In our car Charlie started talking animatedly to a male guard about something. I leaned into Ed on our way back and Al held my hand smiling. This is how it should always be. We all were together, it seemed perfect, other than the fact we all knew we would die tomorrow if we didn't do anything.
I still had no clue of what Ed's plan was. (ooc- Neither does the author... CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!! I should probably think of something. Honestly... I'm stalling... please don't hurt me!!!) I yawned loudly unaware of how tired I was until that second. My eyes slowly closed.
Who was this person? Where was Alphonse-sama?? All I saw was Edward-sama, a girl, and another boy! I followed their car on the rooftops, I took this chance to jump down on them! I jumped off the roof a few yards in front of where the car was headed. I landed in the car with a loud THUD. Some clicks from guns resounded all around me. The girl was still sleeping after I fell all the way down here.
"May? I thought you were going back to Xing!" A familiar voice asked. I looked around filled with emotion. Exhales came from the gun weilders behind me.
"Where's Alphonse-sama? I hear him but I don't see him!" I whined.
Ed hugged the girl to him and looked to the boy next to him. "I'm right here!" The other blond boy smiled. He had golden eyes that made me want to melt.
"Where's your armor?" I asked while staring into his eyes.
"I don't need it anymore. Thanks to Haruhi." His gaze moved to the purple haired girl sleeping in the car. He grinned. I already didn't like her...
"How did you meet Haruhi?" I asked. If he liked her it was my job to get rid of the obstacle blocking me from Alphonse-sama's love.
"She just kind of fell into my arms one day." Ed smiled while gazing down at Haruhi's sleeping figure.
"Yeah... She does that everyday." Al joked. So she was with Ed. Alphonse was still open to love me!!!
"How deeply does she sleep?" I asked.
"When she's dreaming, extremely." Ed replied.
Haruhi muttered something in her sleep sounding like laughter. "I wonder who she is dreaming about." Al thought aloud.
"Wait... May why are you even here?" Ed yelled sitting up sraight. Haruhi's torso fell from leaning onto him to the floor...
"AGH!" I screamed. I looked up from the ground, "Ed! Why the hell did you drop me? OW!"
"I'm sorry..." Ed laughed while saying this. The car jolted to a stop.
"Hi, I'm May." A girl with long black hair held out her hand to me. I grabbed it and stood up.
"I'm Haruhi." I smiled.
She suddenly dropped my hand. "You better not get too close to my Alphonse-sama... Or else." She held up a knife.
"I'm not interested in Al like that..." I frowned.
Al looked confused, "I'm your Alphonse-sama?" He asked.
Ed laughed, "She likes you little bro!"
May stepped out of the car, apparently we reached the hotel. Ed jumped out after her, offering to help me down. He picked me out of the car and onto the ground. Al hopped out afterwards.
I got my first good look at May now; she looked about my height, her hair was black and reached her waist, she wore robes, and had a panda on her shoulder. Aww... The little panda was adorable!!!
We entered the hotel and walked up the stairs to our room. I collapsed on the couch when we entered feeling exhausted; Ed stood there and watched, laughing a bit. He kneeled on the ground and smiled, "Are you really this tired?" Al sat in one of the chairs near the couch.
"Are you not really this tired?" I asked.
He smiled and touched my hair happily. "So, how you feeling?"
"Um... hungry? What's weird is that I have a craving for tomato juice now... and I don't like tomatoes... other than that I'm good." I laughed.
May looked at us oddly and then looked at Alphonse. She collapsed on a chair in the corner looking tired; batting her eyes at Alphonse. "I'm soooo tired!" She complained loudly adding a yawn for effect. When Al stayed put in his armchair. "I kind of feel sick, Alphonse, can you feel my head?" She asked.
Al looked up with a start, "Huh?"
"Alphonse, can you feel my head? I'm sick." She fake coughed after saying this.
"Do you want me to get you some tomato juice?" Ed asked.
I thought for a minute, "That would be awesome but I don't want you to leave yet!"
Ed smiled, "We have forever to be together, I'm thinking of something that will help us."
I sat up quickly, "What?"
Ed looked down a bit and looked back up at me, "Well it's more of a theory than anything else so I can't tell you unless I can figure out if it works."
"That's no fun..." I pouted.
"I'm not good at that stuff yet. Ask Brother or Haruhi if you want to be checked to see if your sick!" Al replied smiling.
May looked depressed. "Alphonse-sama, I feel like your ignoring me!" She whined.
Al looked taken back. "Um... what?" He asked.
"Alphonse, I feel like we were closer when you were armor! Go back!" She yelled.
"I'm confused." Al blushed.
"Change back!" She screamed.
"How about I get tomato juice with you?" I asked Ed.
Ed nodded quickly and laughed. He helped me stand back up and smiled brightly at me, "Lets go."
Al ran to the door to catch up with us, "Not without me you don't! You crazy teenagers..." He smiled. Charlie followed us as did May.
Al was looking behind us staring behind him. "What, Al, is she a bit needy for you?" Ed asked.
He frantically nodded in response. He shivered, "It's kinda creepy... It's like she wants me to be with her, you know?"
I laughed, "Al, honestly, she probably does." I replied.
"What?!?!" He asked loudly.
Ed smiled, "Al, she has a little crush on you! You didn't notice?"
"Well you didn't notice Haruhi liked you until she specifically told you!" Al yelled. "Girls are usually hard to understand unless your viewing from outside."
"Yes, but Alphonse, May kind of makes it obvious..." I smiled.
"Alphonse-sama! Look at that dress!!! Wouldn't I be beautiful in it?" May asked pointing at a shop window.
"Um... I don't know...?" Al replied looking at the ground.
"Well can't you just look?" May begged.
"I did. I just don't know how you would look in it." Al kicked a pebble on the ground.
I giggled, "Hey Ed, how would I look in that dress?" I asked pointing at the purple dress with an orange rose in the window may was looking at.
"It would match your eyes?" Ed replied.
I heard May mutter something that sounded like, "Why is he the romantic brother... ugh... I guess it makes up for his height... but how do I get rid of her?"
Ed frowned at her quickly and turned to me, "Haruhi, how are you feeling?"
"Normal... sleepy, sure, but that's pretty much it..." I shrugged.
"Still want tomato juice?" He asked smiling.
"I don't even like tomatos! Can we get another kind of juice, like apple?" I asked.
Ed pushed open the door of the store for me, May, Al and our guard came in later. We both walked into an aisle with glass jars of juice in them.
"Why did you suddenly want juice?" He asked.
"I don't know... I don't need juice but we are already here so I figure I might as well get some." I picked up a glass jar of apple juice and some with red stuff in it.
(ooc: I'm sorry I am stalling from the actual plot... might as well give this chapter SOME point... but how? This is for me to know and for you to find out!!! BWA HA HA!!!!)
I felt my head swim a bit... I was falling... The crash of glass was around me.
"My Wrath, you're back inside of me too now. You can join the rest of them... My Pride, you are next and last." I smiled at my other piece who was shaped like a little boy. Pride gulped and nodded, aww, he didn't want to die. "Don't worry My Pride. You will always live inside of me, now come on. I need your strength tomorrow." I crooned. My Pride looked up at me sadly.
"Father, I want to live..." He whined.
"My Pride, I can take you now by your choice or by force later on." I warned. I held out my hand threateningly to show him I wanted him to give me his stone. His eyes spun back in his head as he got smaller and smaller. Suddenly all I saw was a red stone floating in the sky.
I grabbed the stone and swallowed it whole. I felt a sudden burst of energy coarse through my body. I shuddered as the power filled my veins; butterflies flew in my lungs. I love this power...
What else could I do to gain more power? I thought for a minute but came up with nothing other than opening the gate tomorrow but would that make me stronger. Maybe it would end my pitiful existence as an experiment who came out right. Or was it wrong? I couldn't ask anyone who created me now, they were dead. The only one who might've had any knowledge about my existence was probably far away by now hiding out so he wouldn't die. Hoenheim... Well at least I could exact on my revenge.
Hoenheim made me this way... The least I can do is make his sons suffer for what he did to me... He tried to make me human...
I gasped as I awoke suddenly. "Whahappened?" I found myself asking as I looked around rubbing my head. Ed smiled at me.
"Why do you always get into trouble?" He asked.
"It's probably best not to ask... Father got rid of all the homunculi..." I gasped.
"Haruhi... you have the weirdest visions ever... you know this?" Al told me. May was looking down at me in envy.
"Kinda..." I sighed.
Ed hugged me, "Are you okay?"
"Not really... my head hurts a lot." I complained.
"Isn't that normal for you?" Izumi asked.
I realized something, we were back in the hotel room and it smelled like food. I kissed Ed's cheek. "I'm fine, really."
