Ch.29

The next morning at Central, Roy had gathered his team together: Ed, Al, Azure, Rain, Hawkeye, Armstrong, Fallman, Furey, Brenda, and Ross. Azure started yawning repeatedly. 'Sir, why have you gathered us all here?' Hawkeye asked. 'Because Rain and Azure are going to explain what they learned yesterday.' Roy said. 'Rain, your explaining because Im too damn tired right now to even speak right.' Azure mumbled with a slight slur in her voice. Everyone turned to rain, who was dozing in the back. '…' Azure walked over to rain and started poking her. Rain slapped her hand away and continued sleeping. Azure kicked her. She kicked back with her metal leg. 'Ow…' Azure glared at rain then punched her in the face. Rain, who was still asleep, punched Azure with her metal arm. Azure sat down and crossed her arms 'I give up.' Rain, still dreaming, smirked at Azure. Azure glared and growled at rain. Rain woke and stared at everyone. 'Um.' She blushed. Azure continued glaring at her. The blush spread across rain's face, turning crimson red. 'Glad you woke.' Ed said, grinning. 'Yeah, after punching me with you damn metal arm.' 'Don't forget the leg.' Havoc said. '….that too.' 'Don't blame me. I didn't sleep last night.' Azure muttered something under her breath then said to rain 'Anyway tell them what happened yesterday. I can't talk in front of a bunch of people so your doing it.' Rain rolled her eyes and made her way to the front and sat on roy's desk. 'Ok, here's what happened: I was taking a walk through the city when yet again, I ran into Envy. I ran back to the house where Azure and I tried to fight him. Something stabbed me in the neck and I blacked out. Azure called my name and tried to fight off Envy but whatever stabbed me, stabbed her too. I was the first to awake, woke her, and found that we were in a cell. Sloth came to get us, Azure tried to make a run for it but Sloth stopped her, and had us follow her. There, we met Father, the man who created the Homunculus. He's plan is for Edward, Azure, and myself to open the Gate so he can rule the world. I told him that he was missing two Homunculus since Gluttony was dead, Greed betrayed them, and he had Lust, Sloth, and Envy. It then hit me that Bradley was also one of them, he's Wrath. Father then showed us the last Homunculus, Pride.' Rain cut off from there and shuddered. Azure stayed silent. 'What does he look like?' Furey asked. Rain pointed to Ed. 'He looked like Ed enough that I thought he was Ed.' 'Really?' Brenda asked. 'Yes really' 'So how did you guys escape?' Maria asked. 'I built us a tunnel exit, since I couldn't find one, and destroyed the entrance and the exit. And I believe I know who killed Hughes.' Azure randomly started chewing at her skin by the cast cause it was itching. 'You mean you know who killed him?' Havoc asked. 'Yeah, this is a theory but I think Envy had something to do with it.' 'Well Envy can change what he looks like.' 'Which is the key factor of Hughes death.' 'So what do we do now?' Al asked. 'Fight.' Rain said bluntly. '…And kill them all.' Azure lowered her voice so that she could hear it 'Or at least all of you guys, im never killing anyone again.' 'But what if Bradley finds out we know his secret?' Fallman asked. Rain scoffs 'Let him, I'll fight him to one of us dies.' '…It actually wouldn't surprise me if he already knew that we know.' Outside, Pride Ed, stood, overhearing their conversation, and he left to report to the Fuhrer. Rain got off the desk and walked over to the window. 'What?' 'Something is bugging me.' 'Like what?' 'I'm not sure.' Azure went quite. The others, except for Ed, Al, and Mustang, also Azure, left. '..Now what?' Rain was silent. Azure just went quite again. 'I'm sorry what?' Rain asked, shaking her head. 'Now what?' Azure repeated. 'I'm thinking of something.' Azure nodded then started scratching at her cast again. 'We need to find out where they are staying.' '…Did you catch were that warehouse was?' 'Yeah, it's outside of Central.' '…So why don't we just go there.' 'Because we need a plan to get through it.' 'Oh.' Rain's ears (AN: One of rain's abilities is to pick up noises, she's not really human) picked up the sound of footsteps and a sword being leashed. Rain turned to see Olivia and another person walk through Mustang's door and she changed her arm into a blade. Azure spun around and got ready to attack them. 'Damn, never thought I see you again.' Rain said. Azure's gaze flickered to the two people to rain and back '…Who are they?' 'Olivia Armstrong, Alex's sister, and that's AJ, her personal slave.' 'Oh…' 'Care to share why the Ice Queen ain't up North?' Azure just decided to stay quite for a moment. 'Someone is tempting to overthrown the military and if there's going to be a new Fuhrer, it's going to be me.' Rain laughs. 'In your dreams.' 'You don't seem like the kind of person anyone would listen to.' 'That's cause she's not.' Roy said. 'She's a lying, cheating bitch who kicked Alex out of his home.' Rain growled. 'Oh.' Rain went to stab her but AJ stopped her. Azure just watched. She reared her other hand and punched him in the face then kicked the sword out of Olivia's hand. Rain stood, picked up the sword, and held the blade Olivia's throat. Azure was still watching the scene with her eyes slightly narrowed. Rain raises the sword, going to cut Olivia's throat when a voice stopped her. 'Rain, NO!' Roy shouts. The hand stops moving. Azure stepped forward and took the sword from rain. 'Ha, she is weak to kill anyone.' Olivia said. Azure flicked the sword up to Olivia's throat again so the blade was touching the skin 'Another word and I'll kill you.' Azure threatened. AJ moved to stop Azure but Ed kicks him in the face, rain stood like a zombie. Azure kept the sword in the same place and was glaring at Olivia. 'She deserves to die.' Rain says demonic voice. Azure slowly started moving the sword into Olivia's neck. 'Kill Her!' Rain commanded. Azure slashed the sword as soon as rain spoke then stared with a dead look in her eyes. Olivia fell and the boys moved towards their girlfriends. Azure dropped the sword and started trembling. She shook her head then ran. Ed ran after her while rain collapsed. Azure ignored that Ed followed and went onto the roof. Ed also went on the roof and found Azure. Azure was sitting on the edge, hugging her knees. 'Azure.' Ed called softly. Azure flinched when she heard her name, but didn't move. 'Love, it's just me.' He said softly. Azure turns slightly to look at him. 'No matter what you did, I still love you.' Azure didn't say anything but hugged Ed. Ed hugged her back, running his fingers through her hair. Azure started trembling again. Ed took his coat off and placed it around her shoulders then went back to hugging her. Back inside, roy was running his fingers through his sleeping girlfriend's hair, trying to understand what happened. Azure broke away from the hug and went back to sitting down and hugging her knees.
