Ed carried his luggage onto the train with his brother following up behind
him. Ed smiled at his brother as the train started to move.
"This will be the last time we'll go on a mission Al," Ed said, smiling at
his brother.
"Niisan, are you sure?" Al asked, a hint of worry in his voice.
Ed grinned, "Of course I'm sure! We're going to do what we always planned
on doing."
Al stared at his brother, "Niisan, are you sure we can do it?"
"Of course. We have everything and the theory is perfect," Ed replied.
"Oh, Niisan," Al replied and Ed had a feeling Al would had smiled if he could.
Al glanced outside his window; even though there would be nothing to see.
It was pitch black with only the twinkling stars as a light.
"Niisan, couldn't we haave waited until later. It's still dark out," Al said,
looking at Ed.
Ed grinned. "Don't worry Al. The sooner, the better I say. It's been years
that we been trying to accomplish our goal. We can finally do what we set
off to do."
Al would have smiled if he could have.
"Once were finished, you can give Winry a kiss," Ed said, trying not to
laugh, as it was obviously that Al was embarrassed.
"Niisan!" Al said, embarrassed at his brother's comment.
Ed couldn't help but grin. He looked out the window as he waited for Al
to calm down. It was common knowledge; well at least to Ed, that Al liked
Winry. It was always funny to tease Al about it.
Ed saw his brother's reflection in the window. Soon it would be his
brother's real reflection and not the suit of armor he was seeing now.
There were the celebrations to look forward to. Havoc had gone on about it
for a bit, saying it had to be done. The two brothers had smiled and
agreed.
After all they had been through with the unit it would be strange
not to agree to the celebration. Al and him had grown so fond of everyone.
Ed had just grinned, he was personally looking forward to the celebration
that followed after the group one. The one that involved only him and the
Colonel.
