WINRY'S POV:
I remember the problem at hand as we sit and eat breakfast, remembering that we don't even have to eat...oh joy. I eat anyway, it makes me feel more normal...lately I've been feeling less and less human..yeesh...
" Ed...you know the plan right. Do you think it'll work?..," I find myself blurting out of nerves, immediately shoving a piece of toast in my mouth to shut me up afterwards. He just sighed.
" Yes Winry I know the plan, and I know it'll work. Try not to stress out about it too much, or we're bound to mess up...," He answered, then facepalmed realizing he gave her another thing to worry about in the process of telling her not to worry...dammit. I nod and go back to eating my cereal. I'm still worried of course, but I have faith in Ed. If he said it was all gonna be okay, then half the time he was right...I'm just praying this was gonna be one of the good halves.
" I'm gonna go find you know what so we can get out of here...," I inform him quietly as I put my dirty dish in the sink and dry my hands off. He watched out, making sure granny didn't enter the room once I found it. I search the drawer vigorously, still...something's not right even when I do find it. When I pick it up, the homunculi sign is gone. He looked at it with wide eyes.
" Hey! Where's the ouroboros tattoo?!," He exclaimed upon noticing that I seem to have the right knife, but the sign isn't on there. I look at it closely, the sign was the seal...He used to say the sign was the seal...What the hell did he mean by that...?
" I don't know but keep your voice down, granny remember?," I shush, flipping the knife open...my eyes widen. Now the sign is on the blade...How the hell did it moves from where it was? Why to the blade? I have a million questions about this whole damn thing, but unfortunately I have a limited abundance of time. I flip the knife closed again and slip it into my back pocket.
" Alright lets go Ed, somehow I fear we don't have much time...Aw I hate all of this. I wanna get back to making automail, and visit Rush Valley! oh Rush valley! The automail parts, the finest in the world! The-" " Winry!", He interrupted my daydream. I shake my head, and look at him guiltily.
" Right sorry, lets get out of here... I think we should leave Al out of this one...this isn't his fight...," I sigh, as he gets up and walks over towards me. He nods in agreement, taking my hand in his. I swallow deeply, running out of the house with him...we have to end this! I hiss at the sun, while we run to the train station to get tickets back to Central...my stomach is churning!
We get our tickets and try to act natural as we board the train. My heart is pounding, sitting next to him and holding his sweaty hand...Jeez! I don't know if we can pull this off, this is all too crazy! With Ed here I can try my best, I have confidence but still...I don't wanna be stuck like this forever. It scares people! We wait nervously on the train, once we get to Central...there is no turning back and we know that...it's time to end this...
I step off of the train, still holding Ed's hand. I can already smell the awful must of the creatures, they're still hunting us down. I pat my back pocket...the blade is in there...and my hunger is getting stronger...dammit!
" Ready Ed? They're nearby...I can smell them...," I ask nervously, looking around for any sign of them. Once problem, there are so many people that there scents our blocking out the musty smell.
" Yeah, and so can I... Lets go...," He answers, gripping my hand and racing out of the station. I follow him quickly, we rush to the abandoned end of town...we don't want anyone else to possibly get hurt or find out about these things... I find myself walking down a wet street, covered in fog...only knowing that Ed is beside me because I'm holding his hand...phew...
I can't smell anything here either, all I can get is the smell of musty wetness from the recent rain. Ed is getting the same smell I can tell. I reach into my back pocket as I hear a faint sound, it is still part of Central so it could be a person...but just to be safe.
I hear a crash and turn around, my eyes widen and I duck under something swooping low and quick...luckily missing me by just a hair...that was too close. Ed jumps when I duck, as the fog around us parts and then reforms..
" Ed...they're here...its time...lets end this!," I call, flipping open the knife and letting my fangs be exposed...We are gonna kick some serious ass!
