Chapter 28

Guesses

"Where are all the people?" Ed asked surprised by the empty car. "There weren't any people. We were surprised too," said the man that was in charge, "How many of my men have you taken out?" "All of them! And you're going to go down as well!" Kanden said, kick the man holding her in the shin, causing him to let go. Ed did the same thing with his left leg and the guy fell over from a broken shin. They kicked the people that were holding them to make sure they were down.

"Impressive. Normal people couldn't take them down that easily. They're my top men." "I've trained," Kanden said flexing her muscles proudly. "And your left leg is made of automail, correct?" the man asked. "How'd you know?" "Lucky guess. You're both State Alchemists, too. Well, I'll make sure to be careful." "You saw the pocket watch chains?" Ed asked. "Yeah and now," he said taking off his gloves and rolling up his sleeves to reveal that both of his arms were automail, "Let's fight. That's what you came for right?" "Yep!" Kanden said as she lunged at the man. He easily flipped her and moved on to Ed, but Kanden was persistent. She started kicking at him from behind but amazingly, he dodged those too. Ed was working hard to block the punches but he lost balance and was hit hard. Then, he knew his suspicion was fact.

"Kanden, Stop!" Ed yelled. "WHY?" she responded. "Can't you tell? This isn't a human at all!" Ed yelled, kicking the guy in the side of the head, making the man flash with alchemical light. Then it was clear to Kanden. The man was actually Envy. "How come I can never keep a disguise?" "Those arms didn't feel like automail when you punched me. Also, Kanden and I left our pocket watches at our seats." "Why do I always miss small details? Oh well. I'll see you later," Envy said running towards the back door. He jumped over Kanden and made it out the door. He leaped onto a car following the train. Then the car stopped and it was left behind. "Damn it! Why does he keep jumping out of a fight? And through a window! But for now, let's get back to the other cars. We should be approaching the station," Ed said climbing on the roof, followed by Kanden, their last prisoners in tow.

This one was also short but oh well. I finished off the train robbery! Hurrah! I interrupted again, I know. Keep reading! Also, Envy is back again! And I still don't know when I'm going to finish this story. It'll take me awhile and I'll probably stop somewhere soon and start a sequel to wrap it up!
