After the Battle (An FMA Story) Chapter 35: Do Not Return
"Yes." The "Master: said," I heard you got rid of your sister. But...I need you to get someone and bring her here." Ed leg twitched but he stayed asleep.
Kitty's eye twitched, "That's it, shorty!" she said then ran too far away for Ed to pumble her. Cat smiled. "sure who, and why?" she asked.
Ed woke up immediately," I AM NOT A PIPSQUEAK!!" He yelled and got up, "…Ok how did I get here and why do I have sand in my hair?" Silver just laughed at him. "The wolf chimera that traveled with your sister. Silver. And I do not have to tell you why." The master said.
Kitty looked at him strangely. "first off all, I didn't call you a pipsqueak, second of all, you swam from the island, 3rd of all, you fell asleep on the shoreline, and 4th of all, I think you have short term memory loss." she said raising one eyebrow.
Cat looked up at her master "...ok..." she said and got up. "you want me to go now?" she asked.
"...So what if I do?" Ed asked.
"Yes." The master said," Do not fail me Cat."
Kitty shrugged. 'I dunno..."
Cat turned away. "ok, is that all?" she asked him
"...Ok fine I do have short term memory loss." Ed said," Wow your short, short tempered, and have short term memory loss!" Silver said joking. Ed glared at her," what...did...you...just...SAY!?" Ed yelled," You heard me!" Silver said.
"Yes. Oh and make sure no one follows you." He said," now go."
Kitty looked over at Silver. "I'd run if I were you..." she said and sighed. Just that moment Cat came running up to them. "Hi Kitty!" she then stopped and turned to Silver. "your Kitty's friend, Silver right? Can I talk to you...alone?" she asked with pleading eyes.
" Sure I guess." Silver said. Ed was steaming. Silver looked at him," Oh calm down you know I was kidding...Kinda..." she said and added the last part under her breath. Ed just gave her an evil glare then turned away.
Cat smiled. "thank you, please follow me." she said trying to sound kind. 'wow, what an idiot!' she thought as she led Silver away. Kitty kneeled down next to Sakari and put her hand on the puppy's back and whispered in her ear. "follow them, if anything bad happens bark 3 times loudly then howl." she said and released Sakari standing. she turned to Ed. "Oh, quit being such a baby!" she called out to him.
Silver followed Cat. She felt uncomfortable because Cat is a homunculus but tried not to show it. Sakari licked Kitty's leg then ran off after the two. Ed just kept his back turned. He was still mad.
Cat came to a building. "now Silver," she said grabbing her by the neck. "You should know, that I don't plan to do any talking." she hissed and smirked. "in fact, I highly doubt anyone does." she laughed maniacally. "such a simple trap, and you fell straight into it you fool!" she said slamming Silver into a wall. "Master! She is here!" she said drawing her sword and putting it to Silver's neck the same way Kitty had the leader of the gang peoples. Cat smirked wildly. "There is no escape Chimera!" she said.
Kitty walked over to Ed and stood in front of him putting her fingers on the corners of his mouth and smiling hyperly. She pushed the corners of his mouth up. "Much better!" she said laughing slightly.
Silver flinched then growled," I knew I shouldn't have trusted you!" she said still growling. The master walked to them," Well done Cat." he said. Silver growled at him. He just grabbed her by her hair. She yelped and looked up at him. For some unknown reason to her he looked like someone she knew. Ed just glared at her," Stop it!" he said. Sakari saw what was going on. She almost barked but was picked up by the scruff by Envy," Well, well, well. What do we have here? A spy dog?" She asked and smirked. Silver looked at Envy," PUT MY DOG DOWN!" She yelled. The master yanked on Silver's hair," Be quiet." he said. She yelped. Sakari growled and struggled. Envy just grabbed Sakari's mouth so she couldn't bark.
Kitty looked at him sternly. "why shou..." she stopped hearing Silver's scream. "Ed, stay!" she commanded then put Tenshi-Neko on his shoulder. "Tenshi-Neko, make sure he stays!" the kitten mewed and sat obediently on Ed's shoulder. Kitty came running to where Envy, Cat, and the master were. She stopped seeing them. "Let go of Silver and Sakari, unless of course you all wish to suffer a very slow and painful death." she demanded. Cat looked at her coldly and both Kitty and Cat drew their swords at once blocking the other's strike. "oh Kitty..." she said coldly. "It's so hurtful, you don't trust your own sister?" Kitty smirked. "o'course I don't!" she yelled back and at that moment the 2 of them started fighting to the death, weapons and all.
The master took this to his advantage and pulled Silver off. He covered her mouth so she couldn't scream. Silver struggled but it was no use. Envy moved around the girls and followed Master still holding onto Sakari. Ed smirked and started to walk the same way Kitty did.
Tenshi-Neko hissed loudly and dug her nails into Ed's shoulder.
Moments later Kitty had knocked her sister unconscious. "sorry, but this time, you deserved to die." she said and walked in front of the master and Envy holding out her sword pointed towards them. "And just WHERE do you think you're going?!" she yelled angrily at them. "When I said put them down, I meant it as an order." she said, with a flare of mischief and mayhem in her eyes.
The master looked at Envy. She nodded and slammed Sakari to the ground and walked up to Kitty," There. Is the dog down enough?" She asked and smirked. She transformed her arm into a blade. The master smirked and turned around then walked off still holding Silver.
"ARGH!!!!!" Ed yelled and ran in a circle trying to get Tenshi-Neko off his shoulder.
Tesnshi-Neko withdrew her claws but remained on his shoulder in case he tried to follow her again.
Kitty looked into Envy's eyes. "Well, that was a little bit harsh...but yes, Sakari is down enough, oh and sorry to disappoint you," she said pushing her arm away and putting the stone to her forehead turning her human. "but initial shock can only last for so long." she said stabbing Envy in the heart and walking over to the master. "you fool." she said stabbing him straight in the back. "never turn your back on an opponent." she said and smirked. 'well, that was progressive, 4 in 1 day!' she thought.
The Master smirked," I know not too. But you should never turn your back when fighting homunculi." He said. Lust came up behind Kitty and stuck his nails right on both sides of Kitty's neckThe master walked from the blade making it come out of his back.He turned around and grabbed the necklace.He yanked it and the stone came off," I'll be taking this. Lust, get rid of her." The master said. Silver bit down on The Master's hand. The Master just pulled her hair. She yelped and growled," Let go of me now!" She yelled," No. I have plans for you." He said.
Kitty started laughing uncontrollably. "...you...idiot! you really...think that the stone...is all I have...at my disposal?!" she said still laughing. "what a moron!" she said, still having the sword in her hands she took it and swiped Lust's nails, breaking them off. she put her hand to the ground and blew it up then ran to the master and grabbed the stone. "I believe this is mine." she said dropping it back into the proper place on her necklace and turned Lust human and driving the sword through his heart. then came up to the leader once more and jumped onto his back, he same way she had with pride, she slipped the blade in front of his neck and grabbed the other end with her spare hand, she pushed herself off his back and cut his head clean off. "come on Silver, Sakari, lets go."
