Good news people i am just now getting over the Flu! this means i will be able to update like i used to.
Envy and Knox starred up at the castle they had followed Kimblee to. "Damn of all the places." ENvy muttered. "Of all the places it had to be Dantes place. How good is your alchemy without the stone?" He inquered. "Only so so." Knox confessed. "Yea and i really don't feel like fighting."Envy admittted. "Maybe we should ask Mustang for help and get back up?" KNox suggested. "And admit i fucked up?" ENvy scoffed. "No way. Ok wait i got a plan." He siad smiling. "Oh dear." Knox said nervously. "This doesnt happen to involve me as bait does it?" Envy didnt answer He merely dug into his bag and brought out a rope. "Dont worry I proise no harm will come to you." Envy replied as he tied the doctor up. "See its stuf like this that made me go into hidding in the first place." Knox muttered.
WInry sighed as she looked up to the top of the chandiler where Edward was fearfully perched. "Ed please come down. I know you don't like it but you need to come down!" Everyone else nodded their agreement. "Ed you are 15 years old just take it like a man!" Roy said immpaitantly. "Yea think of it as a spa." Ling assured.
"NO I refuse to submit myself to such torture!" Ed hissed. They always did hate this time of the week as of lately for the past three weeks it had been relatively easy for them due to the fact that he was too out of it to be aware of what was going on but the last few days He had been alarmingly aware of his surroundings. One would even say he was pretty much out of acomma if it wasnt for the fact hat every now and than his eyes would glaze over and he would be dead to the world for hours at a time. If only such an ocurance was now.
"Edward ELric Mustang I am going to count to three and if you dont come down i will snap my fingers and burn all the fur off your tail you hear me?" Roy grabbed his tail fearfully and began to look about for an escape. He eyed the window and decided to try it. He jumped off the chandiler and aimed for the window unfortuently he was caught by Riza who was ready for him. "Let me *cough cough* go"Edward said as he coughed into his hand. "No ed you know that you have to do this or you will get fleas again."Riza responded as she carried him into the bathroom and undressed him. once he was devoid of clothes she gently placed him into the tub and began to pour water on his head much to his displeasure. "Flea shampoo."Riza ordered as roy handed it to her.
She squerted some in her hand and begant o lather it into his hair makig sure to get his ears and tail. "I hate flea bath day."Edward merowed in displeasure. "Just be glad that we dont make you wear a flea collar."ROy said frowning. "But... if you want to i coudl go pick one up." He said deviously. Edward glared at him with fangs barred. "Bastard you try and put that on me and i will casterate you!" He warned as Riza hit him on the head gently but firmly. "Edward what did i say about swearing?" "Not to."Edward mumbled shamefacedly. Ling turned to Winry and wiped an immagianry tear from his eye. "Isnt this wonderful Ed is waking up." He said smirking"ANd he is fouler than ever." WInry frowned at Ling shakking her head. "It must be all the pent up frusteration from having to deal with you." She quipped causing Lings already squinty eyes to narrow more. "Your lucky you are my freind." LIng said carefully. "So what percentage is he at right no w awke wise do you think?" WInry asked changign the subject. LIng looke dover at the squerming Ed for a moment. "I'd say about 75 percent." Ling assesed. "But I feel sorry for him.. at least when he is less aware he doesnt know how much pain he is in." He said in an undertone as he walked out of the room. Winry nodded following. "Do you think he is aware that he is you know.. dying?" Winry aksed quietly. Ling looked over at her surprised that she would even admit that outloud. "I think that he was always somewhat aware." Ling asnwered softly. "He just didnt say anything."
KImblee sat on the table of the entry way smirking as Envy came in holding onto a tied up Dr. Knox. "You serriously think Dante is going to fall for this?" He asked gesturing to the doctor. "I expected better of you."
"Where is Dante?" Envy asked ignoring the kids comment. "Dante is out in a meeting last i checked." he answered boredly. "Look will you stop beating arround the bush i know you are here to get this." he said tauntingly as he held up the stone for them to see. "Want to fight for it?" he challanged.
They had Just gotton Edward dressed in his favourite Kitty PJs when the bell rang. "I wonder who that could be."Roy mussed. dropping the towel he was using to dry Edwards hair to get up. he felt a tug on his leg and looked down to see Edward looking up at him expectantly. "Please?" he asked obviously in pain. Roy smiled tenderly as he picked Ed up and laid his head on his shoulders. "I will get the door."Riza siad smiling. however she stopped smiling when she saw the men in white coats at the door. "Mrs Mustang, We are here concerning your youngest son Edward." the eldest one informed her pushing her aside. "Hey watch it i didnt invit you in! WHat do you want with him anyway?"
"We are alchimist scientist who study chimeras." The eldest informed them. I am Dr. Polmon and this is my assistand Dr. Tucker." We heard tat he is a perfect fusion may we look him over?" "Look who over?" Roy demanded comming in with edward lying on him half asleep. A greedy look crepped into Tuckers eyes as he spotted Edwards tail. "Look pollman he is clearly fused with a cat as they sujested." Tucker said excitedly.
Edward yawned and lifted his head to look over at the new guests before he began to cough. Oy dug into his pocket and handed his son a hankee which he gratfully accepted and began to cough into. ITs once blue surface becomming red. "Heis a bit immperfect though.. do you think this is becuse ofthe transmutaion?" Pollman frowned. "a still failed Experiamnet perhaps?"
Roys eyes narrowed at them"MY son is not an experament. He is a humn just like everyone else and for your information he is ill you jackass!" He said furriously. He gently placed Ed down on the floor but Ed began to whimper at being away from his warm spot as he shivered. Wirny and ling took a big blanket and wrapped it arround him as they also glared at the men.
"Look if you let us look over him we maybe able to cure him of his disfigurement."Pollman siad cautously. "who knows maybe his illness will ggo away." a couple rounds of buleets flew past the scientists. "MY son is not disfigured you creps!" Riza roared. "He is perfect the way he is and my son has chronic bronchits you bastard! Now leave my house at once before I shoot your blass off." the scintists nodded and quickly left but not befor leavign thier card.
once outside the scinetst began to breath easier. "well that was a failed attempt." pollman said sighing. "That chimerra will be mine soon enough tohugh."TUcker added with a determined look.
Edward was still whimpering inside the house as his parents tried to comfort him. "ITs ok my Kitten. "I wont let anyone get you you will be ok." Riza cooed.
