-Alphonse's POV-
Back in the room, he was struck by a thought. Something he hadn't had a reason to think about until now.
"What if my body is rotting away though?"
He looked around after asking. He was seated on one couch, next to Winry. His brother sat on the one across from them and Kit was sprawled out on Ed's bed. She actually looked pretty comfortable and calm.
"I'd be more worried about it's lack of muscle than the smell Al." Kit commented.
"Yea, I'm sure your body is just fine." Ed said.
"How could either of you be so sure?" Winry asked.
"Have a theory, Brother?"
"Of course he does." He heard Kit say.
"That's right. I'm thinking that when we tried to bring mom back, by using our blood, we made some kind of connection between me and your body. "
"Sounds about right. And before you say anything, Ed, that has nothing to do with your stunted growth. Winry's heavy creation is weighing you down. No offense Win. It's beautiful work. Really it is but it's kind of heavy on the system. Especially one as, um, vertically challenged as Edwards."
"None taken Kit. Thank you." Winry smiled at Kit.
"Hey! Offense taken on my part!" Ed pouted.
"Good thing I don't care that much about offending you. Winry is much more deadly. Have you not met her wrench?" Kit argued rolling her eyes.
-Kit's POV-
"Oh, I know it all too well." He answered, shaking slightly.
She smiled at him. Back when she was watching FullMetal Alchemist, Kit usually burst out laughing when Ed got hit. She found it really amusing for some reason.
"Well I'm going to head to bed now. Night, you three." Winry yawned as she stood and went to the room she and Kit were supposed to share. The remaining trio called good nights after her.
Kit sat up and looked at the brothers.
"I know it's a bit late but I think I'm going to get talking to Mustang over with now." She said.
They turned to look at her and Edward raised an eyebrow at her.
"Don't look at me like that. I really don't want to put it off any longer. Besides, it'll give you boys some time for brotherly bonding time." She stated standing and picking up her bag.
"Anything in particular you want us to bond over?" Al asked.
"That's between you and the short stuff. I'm off. Later fellas." She told them as she crossed the hotel room to the door and waved at the boys as she left.
-Edward's POV-
He and Al watched her close the door behind her as she left. Then they looked at one another.
"So... uh... She's really improved in her combat skills." He started awkwardly.
"You really want to talk about Kit? Of all subjects?" Al laughed.
"Not particularly. Any other subject would be great actually."
"Okay. So did anything else happen in Xerxes that you didn't tell us earlier?"
He felt his face heat up and he cleared his throat.
"I found out that i was Scar that killed Winry's parents." He said softly
"What?!" Al gasped.
"Shhh! Not so loud." He shushed.
-Kit's POV-
She walked into the hospital and wandered around.
"Can I help you?" A familiar voice asked from behind her.
Kit turned and grinned at the nurse.
"Kit?"
"Hey, Miss Bernadette."
"Is everything okay? What brings you back here?" The nurse asked looking Kit over as though she were a child.
"I'm fine. Really. My amnesia is gone, Ed and Al are fine, my ankle is completely better too. I just came to see Colonel Roy Mustang. He wanted to talk to me at some point and I can't put it off anymore."
"I see, very good. You are aware that visiting hours are coming to a close, right?"
"I know but I really want to deal with it now. Surely you can help me make it happen, please? Pretty please?"
Kit looked up at her and popped out her lower lip, twisting her face into a pleading pout. Bernadette sighed and shook her head.
"Okay! Okay, I'll allow it. Just this once."
She grinned again and flung her arms around the nurse.
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"
"Shhh. Come on then."
She nodded and followed as Bernadette lead her to the room she sought.
The nurse stopped before a door and knocked softly.
"Who is it?" Riza Hawkeye's voice called cautiously.
"Visitor for the Colonel."
The door opened and Riza poked her head out. When she saw Kit she raised an eyebrow.
"Kit?"
"Yea. Ed and I just returned from our visit to Resembool a few hours ago and Colonel Mustang wanted to speak to me about... things I know. I'd like to get that out of the way now."
"One moment. Sir?" She asked and turned to look over at, most likely, Roy.
"Let her in Hawkeye." A masculine voice said, clear as day.
"Very well, Come on in Kit." Riza said, opening the door.
"I'll see you hopefully later Kit." Bernadette said, smiling as she walk off.
"Okay, later. Thank you again." She smiled and went into the room.
Riza closed the door behind her and Kit looked around the room. It was nearly identical to the room she had stayed in when she first came to Amestris. Roy sat up in one bed, legs crossed and dark eyes fixed on her.
In the beside him was a spiky banged blond man with fair skin and blue eyes. Jean Havoc. Laying as he was, Kit assumed he was slightly taller than Roy and a touch more muscular than the Colonel. Though he wasn't as attractive. In fact, Havoc looked downright pathetic.
Riza stood behind Kit and a little to the left of her.
"You said you'd explain yourself. Please began." Roy ordered.
"Ah, right! Well, you see..." Kit then told him her story. From being home to waking up in the hospital with Edward. Her first memory recovered. Everything she could think of being as worth telling him. So everything except how she may or may not by Truth's offspring.
The three around her looked skeptical.
So, for proof, she pulled out the notebook full of FullMetal Alchemist information and passed it around. Starting with Riza who passed it to Roy before it went to Havoc. When Havoc finished he handed it back to Kit.
"Does anyone else know?" Havoc asked.
"Well there's Ed and Al, Armstrong, Hughes knew, Izumi, Miss Gracia, Two Xingese men; Mr. Han and Fu, Maria Ross, The Homunculi; well the ones that are in the loop and alive. So that's Envy, Wrath, Gluttony, Father and maybe Pride. Then my mother and best friend back home know too." She answered putting her book away."
"Well... It appears to be a better kept secret than Ed and Al's." Roy commented and she simply shrugged.
"It's no where near as well kept as the Fuhrer's." Kit laughed.
"And what is he hiding?" Riza asked.
"What you didn't read it in my book?"
"I guess I missed that part." The adult woman admitted.
"Well, all in good time then." Kit smiled playfully.
Roy smiled at her.
"I should head back now. But first... Colonel?"
"Yes?"
"Well I've been compiling a sort of bucket list and I was wondering if you would allow me to check something off it."
"A bucket list, huh? Okay. Go ahead." He nodded.
"Great. Thank you." She smiled and walked over to the right side of his bed.
He turned and looked up at her, curious as to what she had in mind. Kit raised her right hand. In a swift motion she slapped Roy hard enough to leave a pink spot on his cheek.
Riza gasped and Havoc laughed while Roy stared at her stunned.
"Thank you! Now I can cross that off." She said delightedly before running out.
"Wait!" He called and she stopped in the doorway.
"Yes?" She asked, looking at him.
"What else was on your bucket list?"
"Tugging Edward's clothes off and kissing Envy. Envy is a shapeshifter and I already kissed him."
"So all that's left is to strip Ed? Good luck with that." Roy scoffed.
"Actually I almost did that several days ago. But you wouldn't want to hear about that." She said and Roy's jaw dropped as she continued on her way out.
-Edward's POV-
"So. I was thinking."
"About what Brother?"
"Luring out Homunculi to question them."
"What about asking Kit what you want to know?"
"Where's the fun in that?"
"You're like a child. How are we so sure that you are really the older brother here?"
"Al! Really? I'm offended you would ponder such a thing."
"I'm not." Someone else commented.
The brothers turned and saw Kit closing the door. Grinning and walking towards them.
"I hope you don't mind. But I would like to sleep in here again." She told them.
"Is something wrong with the other room?" Al asked.
"No. I... I'm just more comfortable sleeping with you guys."
"It's fine with me... I guess." Ed shrugged and she smiled, sitting her bag onto the couch as she slipped off her shoes before climbing onto his bed. As he watched her he felt his face heat up.
"Thank you." She told him as she laid on her left side.
