Transmutation Four

Sunday PT 2: Phone Call

Ed sat up at the top of the stairs, feeling upset for the comeback he had yelled a minute ago. He knew no one would ever sell their lives to the military, not even Roy. His thoughts were interrupted when the colonel called him.

"Ed, you have a phone call." he said. The boy nodded, and walked downstairs. The raven haired man handed the teen the receiver, and walked away. The blond fumbled with the phone a bit, trying to figure out if he should listen to it through his cat ears, or his normal ears. Figuring that the cat ears were too high, he went with the normal.

"Hello?"

"NII-SAN!" yelled a worried metallic voice in the phone. Edward's ears rang, and he cursed himself for having twice the hearing.

"A-Al. . .you can keep your voice down, you know," he said.

"Oh, sorry, Nii-San, but is it true about what happened to you?" Alphonse asked. "that you're a. . . a cat." Ed could tell his brother was trying not to squeal, from the fact that he loved cats.

"Yeah, who told you?" the neko boy said, sitting down on the couch.

"Hughes told me. He called early this morning." Al answered. Ed sighed. "so, Nii-San, what are you going to do? Can you take care of yourself? If you want, I can come over right aw. . ."

"Now, Al, don't let your two weeks of vacation end quickly. Don't worry about me, the Investigations Dept. are looking into it now." or. . . so I think.

"Well, if you say so, Nii-San." Alphonse sighed. "but if you get into any trouble, you know you can count on me and I'll be there for you." Edward wanted to cry at how loyal his younger brother was.

Roy had walked by the staircase, and stopped. He listened to Ed talking on the phone to his brother. The man shrugged off his angst, and decided to play a little prank.

"So, Nii-San, where are you staying again?" Al asked.

"Me? I. . .uh. . ." Ed stuttered. Roy stood at the top of the stairs, and cleared his throat.

"Edward?" he yelled, causing the young teen to freeze, as well as his brother. "hurry up on the phone! I'm waiting!"

"Nii-San. . ." Al said on the other line in a low voice. "was that the Colonel. . .?"

"Erm. . ."

"Ed? Hurry up and hop into bed with me!"

"NII-SAN? WHAT ARE YOU DOING? I NEED TO HAVE A WORD WITH YO. . ." but Al was cut off when the older brother hung up. He glared up at the smirking colonel, who put his hands on his hips in victory.

"What? It's not like I did anything." Roy said.

"It's not like you did anything. . ." Edward grumbled back mockingly. ". . .my ass."

"Huh? You say something?" the raven haired man asked, wlaking down the stairs and into the kitchen.

"No, Baka Taisa. I didn't say anything."

"Say. . .Fullmetal. . ." Roy said, saying the teens real title on purpose. "since you are a cat. . .well, part cat, do you think you can really act like one, like. . . how do I say it. . ."

"Of COURSE I can act like a cat! Anyone can!" Edward snapped. The colonel handed him a cup of coffee.

"Oh, thanks." the boy said, before chugging it all down, not caring about how hot it was. He suddenly felt dizzy, and strange. He felt like he was loosing his senses.

"What the hell did you put in this shit?" he asked in a slurred tone.

"Catnip." Roy answered calmly, before taking a sip of his own coffee.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! CATNIP! AHAHAHAHAHA ! Review, please.
