I havn't even been writing because all my stories got deleted but 1. I wa sgoing to get myself deleted to, but, whatever. Okee dokee, so I guess I'll just get on with the disclaimer. I don't own FMA nor any of its characters, I just own my 8.00, kawaii, widdle Edo-Kun plushie from Sugoi-con! huggles Ed plushie

The inside of Ed's boots squished as he and Al hiked across the slippery road that seemed to be leading nowhere. They had been in search of a town for days now, but with no luck ended up stuck in rain, on an isolated road with no sign of anything living, let alone a town. Ed sighed clenching his stomach as it started growling. "This isn't fair..." wined Ed groggily, "There's nothing here, just dirt, road, and rain. I could transmutate something into food, but-" He stopped as he collapsed to the ground. "But, there's nothing." Ed rolled over to edge of the road and began doodling in the dirt with his finger. "Maybe I should check the map again," said Al, a little worried as he watched his brother draw doodles of pies. "Yeah, pie. Apple, no, maybe, raspberry," Ed whispered, as he began to drool. "Hmmm, I don't get it," Al muttered turning the map sideways. "According to the map, we should have passed through at least 3 towns by now!" "Or maybe cherry," said Ed, not paying any attention. Al started turning the wet map upside down, puzzled. Ed rolled up into a ball and started rocking back and forth. "I don't know how much longer I can go!" He yelled. Al shook his head and flipped the map around again as the wet corners began drooping. "Let me see the map," snapped Ed, as he grabbed the edge of the map.

"Don't Nii-san!" cried Al, pulling it back.

"Al just let me-"

"Stop! You'll rip it!

"Well if you'd just let go, then maybe-"

RRRIIIIPPPP! They both stared down the map which was now soaked and ripped in half. "Sorry," Al said squatting down to pick up half of the map. Ed was silent. He gently picked up the other half of the map and rolled it up. "Well," he began, sticking the map in his pocket. "That's...ok." He smiled down at Al, offering his hand. Al took his brother's hand and stood up. "And besides!" yelled Ed, getting excited. "Who needs a map to get us outta here anyway! We're the Elric brothers, and we've gotten out of tuffer things than this!" Ed raised both arms into the air "Yup, and as long as we got me, you can be rest assured we'll get outta this in no time!" A sweatdrop formed on the back of Al's metal head. "We're doomed," he thought to himself.

MEANWHILE

A knock was heard at Roy Mustang's office door. "Come in," said Mustang, as he finished closing a drawer on his desk. "Lieutenant Hawkeye, hello," he greeted. Riza Hawkeye saluted. "Sir, we haven't heard anything from Full Metal yet," she reported. "Really," Mustang replied smirking. "How does that not surprise me." Riza sighed. "Shall I assemble a search team?"

"No" ordered Mustang. "I'll see to it that Full Metal gets back here, personally. Go start one of our cars. We'll leave in about an hour."

Riza gave a disgusted look. "Yes Sir." She was well aware of Mustang's rivalry with Edward, and knew he was just doing this push Ed's buttons. She scratched the back of her head. "When will that man just give it up."

She walked into the military's garage to find Maes Hughes preparing a car. "Mornin' Riza!" he chimed. "I got Mustang's orders already, I guess he just likes pushing Edward's buttons, huh?"

"Apparently," Riza replied, looking in through the passenger's side of the car.

"Check it out!" Hughes said smiling holding out small booklet. "We got Alicia's pictures made into conviently sized stickers!" He began sticking them to the back windshield. "Hughes, Hawkeye, if we leave now, I think we can-" Mustang stopped as he walked in. He and Riza stared blankly as Hughes continued to glaze their military car in 3 ½ inch stickers of his daughter's face. "You think she should stop him?" asked Riza.

"We wouldn't want to spoil his fun," replied Roy sarcastically.

"DAMN!" yelled Ed, as he and Al ran through the rain, which had now become a storm. "This rain really picked up fast, I can't see anything!"

"Nii-san, this wind is too strong!" yelled Al. "It keep pushing ba-"

"Al!" Ed looked behind him to find his brother half sunk into a puddle of mud. "I'm okay..."

"Don't worry, Al, I'll get you out!" Ed began digging through the mud with no luck.

"If you could just free my arm, I could pull myself out!" cried Al. With that Ed stood up and began pulling on Al's heavy, metal arm. "Okay, on the count of three!" Ed yelled. "1...2...3!" On the third and final pull Al's arm flew out sending little Ed flying backward. Al proceeded to pull himself out the mud puddle. "Nii-san, are you okay?" he yelled, as a loud roll thunder boomed over them. Ed stood up. "Ow. . ." he moaned, rubbing his head. "I hit my head on something." Al helped him up, "What kind of something? Like a stick?" he asked.

"No, it was harder than that." Ed turned around with his arms outstretched against the wind and rain. "It was, right about. . .HERE!" he yelled. He squinted through the rain to find he had grabbed hold of a metal bar. "What is it?" asked Al. Ed moved his hand over to find another bar. "It's some kind of gate!" he yelled. "Al help me push!" The two brothers began pushing the gate, as it carefully creaked open. Ed hurried through the opening, covering his eyes and squinting to see what they had found. As a bolt of lightning struck, their discovery became visible. "Al! It's a house! A HUGE house!" shouted Ed overjoyed. Al hurried through the gate. "You think they'll let us in?"

"Of coarse they'll let us in!" yelled Ed. "I'm a State Alchemist!" he smirked pulling out his State Alchemist's Watch. "Now c'mon, let go knock on the door! They might have PIE!"

Al sighed. "Nii-san, even after that, you're still thinking about your stomach?" But Ed wasn't listening, he was banging the door knocker and pounding on the door. "HELLO!" yelled Ed. "Anyone home!" They waited. Ed grabbed the door knocker and knocked again. They continued to wait. Al grabbed the door handle and opened it slightly, peeking his head inside. "Hello?" Ed peeked his head in under Al's. "There's no lights on, I guess no one's home," he said running in, disappearing into the darkness. Al tiptoed in after him, looking nervously looking around. It was too dark to really see anything. "Nii-san?" Another loud roll of thunder boomed closing the door behind him. "EEP!" he yelled dashing in. "Wait for me!"

So whatdya think so far? This was originally going to be a spooky horror fic, but then Roy and Hughes kinda ruined that effect -;; Oh well. REVIEWS ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED! P.S. If you find typos, I'm sorry bows my spell check doesn't work at all. It seems to think everything I spell is correct. Even things like 'ffdsiudsjiuvr.8439.,32fdhsui' So if you find something, just do your best to ignore it. Arigatou-
