Chapter 6:

In the pharmacy room of the central headquarters, one of the nurse was finished with Ed's wounds, Ed stood up and walked over to Erika.

Ed said to her, "I'm glad you're ok Erika, I got worried about you when you got cut by that maniac Barry."

"I'm ok now Ed, but I still wanna hurt him for calling me short, I just hate when people call me short," Erika said in a annoyed way.

"Yeah, I feel the same way as you when people call me short too," Ed said in annoyed way and smiled.

Both Ed and Erika talked about themselves to get to know each other alittle bit more.

Then Al came in panting, Ed asked him "Al, what's wrong?"

Al answered while panting"it's...Rika...she's lost a lot of blood...I don't think she's going to make it" he said with a sad voice.

Erika and Ed eyes were wide, they were shocked of what Al told them, Erika tried to get out of the bed, but Ed stopped her, he said "you're in no condition of getting up, if you do, your wounds will reopen."

She looked at him and yelled "AND WHAT AM I SUPPOSE TO DO, JUST SIT HER AND LET MY OLDER SISTER DIE, NO WAY! SHE'S THE ONLY FAMILY THAT I HAVE...she's more than a sister to me, she's like a mom to me, even though she treats me like a little kid, she's still family to me, so I have to see her, to see if she's ok or not...I'M NOT GONNA LET MY OLDER SISTER DIE!" she said as tears were flowing down from her eyes and down her cheeks.

Both Ed and Al looked at her, Al was about to say something but Ed said "I'm sorry but you can't, it'll be to painful to you, it's much better to you if you don't see your sister dying right in front of your eyes."

Erika said "she's not going to die, she once said to me that I'm her life, that she depends on me, so I have to be there for my sister...or I'll regret not going to see her, you see...we have this strong bond, if one of us is going to die, one of us would go and heal each other in order to be alive, so that's why I have to go and see her...please, let me come with you to see my sister please."

She was crying so much, Ed pulled Erika in for a hug, she hugged him back while still crying.

Ed said "alright, you can come," Erika was happy that Ed agreed for her to see her sister.

Both Ed and Erika stood up from the bed, Al told them to follow him to the room that Rika was in.

Erika said to herself hold on Riri, I'm coming, just hold on...your lifesaver is here with you big sister.

In the room where Rika is in, the nurse tried to give Rika blood to live.

Roy was in the room with her, he looked at her pale face and pray that she would live.

Then all of a sudden, Ed, Al, and Erika came through the door.

Erika stared at her pale face sister, she ran up to her and held her hand in hers.

She said to her "come on Riri, you can make it, please wake up, don't leave me, you promised to tell me about what happened to mom and dad, so please wake up."

Then there was a glow from Rika's hand, it felt warm like a warm fire on a winter night.

A tear fell from Erika's eye and dropped on Rika's hand as the glow was becoming fainter and fainter, then it disappeared.

They all heard a moaning sound from Rika, she opened her eyes slowly, her vision was kinda blurry, but after a few seconds past her vision became normal.

She looked at everyone, she sat up and looked at Erika and said "I told you...you're my lifesaver Erika" then she smiled.

Erika was so excited, she cried and hugged her tightly, Rika was in pain that Erika was hugging her so tight, but after a few minutes she got used to the pain and hugged her back.

Everyone in the room were happy that Rika was alive and well, Roy was really happy.

He didn't know what he was feeling inside, but it felt good to him so he didn't fight it.

Erika asked everyone if they could have some privacy to talk about something, they all agreed and left the two girls alone.

Ed, Al, and Roy put their ears near the door to listen to the girl's conversation.

Rika looked at Erika, she had the face that says 'you like someone' she said "I know that face Erika, and I'm not telling you."

"Oh come on sis, its not hard to say you like someone, you like Roy, don't you?" Erika said in a hyper way.

Rika said "I know you're trying to help me find a date Erika, but I don't have time for that, Roy is a gentleman but, I can't go out with him on a date."

Erika asked her "why not, it's been like eleven years, and not one gut asked you out, also that you're decline dating guys that wants to go out with you, why is that?"

"It's because I had to take care of you for those eleven years, all I could think of was…to take care of you, cause I promised mom that I would, and that's what I'm gonna do."

"I'm not a little kid anymore Riri, I'm a teenager, why do you have to treat me like a kid, what is it that you don't want me to know of whatever happened to mom and dad?"

She answered "you're just like I was Kira, I used to be like you when I was your age right now, the thing is Kira, right now is not the time to tell you of what happened to mom and dad, but I promise that I will tell you in due time."

Erika looked at Rika and said "you promise to tell me?"

"I promise."

Then Erika held up her pinky and said to Rika "pinky swear it then," Rika held up her pinky and hooked it with Erika's pinky, and Rika said "I, Rika Sohma, pinky swear promise to tell my little sister of what happened to mom and dad...when it's the right time of course," then they both smiled.

They unhooked their pinkies and hugged each other.

Roy came in the room, he made his hand into a fist, held it in front of his mouth and cleared his throat to get the girls attention.

Both the girls looked at Roy, Erika looked at both Roy and Rika, she knew what she had to do, so she cleared her throat and said "well I'll leave you two lovebirds alone now," then she left the room.

Roy came up to Rika, he sat in the chair that was next to the bed where Rika is.

Rika smiled and said "so now that we're both alone, I guess that there's one thing to do now."

Roy looked at her and said "I guess the only way to get Hughes off my back, is to go on a date, not that I don't wanna go on a date with you, I mean you're beautiful and all, but Hughes just gets on my nerves all the time!"

She blushed when he said that she was beautiful to him, so she just smiled at him.

He asked her, "if we both weren't forced to do this blind date thing, would you still go on a date with me, on your own free will?"

Rika answered him "if I were to go on a date with someone on my own free will, I would go out with someone, but I also have to take care of my sister, I know that she's not a little kid anymore, but I still have to watch over her."

Roy smiled and said to her "I'm sure that she can take care of herself, she has the protection of the state alchemist and also the full metal alchemist with her, so there's nothing to worry about, so rest a sure, your little sister will be safe from harm."

She smiled at him, she said to him "Roy Mustang, I would be honored to go on a date with you."

He looked at her and hugged her, but not too tightly, and she hugged him back.

Erika, Ed, and Al, were still listening to the conversation, until Erika feel on top of Ed.

She said "I'm so sorry Ed, I slipped on something..." as she was apologizing to Ed, Ed was staring at her.

They both blushed, there was dead silence, until the door opened, both Erika and Ed got up from the floor.

Both Roy and Rika looked at Ed, Erika, and Al, while they were both holding hands.

Erika saw this and said "awww...look at the cute couple, hey Ed, isn't that kawaii or what?"

Ed answered "yeah, that is kawaii, I even think that they're gonna get married."

Rika and Roy both blushed when Ed said that they were gonna get married.

Roy said while still holding Rika's hand "I hope that we do get married someday, and I wish for both you and Erika to get married also, considering you're both short, you two would make a good couple."

Both Erika and Ed yelled "I'M NOT SHORT!" they both looked at each other and blushed.

Rika giggled when they said that and that they were blushing.

Roy requested "alright, it's official, let's all go on a date, how about next week..." he looks at Rika "does that sound good to you Rika?"

Rika answered "that sounds good to me, I'm sure my wounds will heal by that time."

Both Rika and Roy smiled at each other, both Ed and Erika thought that it would be a bad thing for them.

Rika said to Erika "I'm sure that your date with Ed will be great, besides he's a good guy for you Kira."

Erika blushed and put her head down while her bangs were covering her eyes.

Ed put his hand on top of Erika's hand, Erika blushed more when he did that.

Roy said "I'm sure that our full metal alchemist will take care of her while we're on our date Rika, besides they both do have something in common...they're both short."

Both ed and Erika got annoyed by Roy calling them short, they both yelled "STOP CALLING US SHORT!"

Both Roy and Rika were laughing, and Al was holding both Ed and Erika back from them killing both Roy and Rika.
