(lol, Imperfexion pointed out that it seemed like I was rushing through the last chapter...well I was when I made it, I noticed that when I read it over too. See i was writing it during class, and my friend kept yelling at me because I would get stuck in the middle of the sex scene and would stop there! So i had to hurry up and get it finished, and also...i don't really want to be caught writing that in class. My teacher would sooo read it out loud...lol i don't need the whole class knowing that im a pervie..although all of my friends know it. Heh! Anyway! Yes there is a death, you may love me for it...or you may kill me for it. but it is definitely in the next chapter. I found a good place to end it here So..yeah. ON WITH THE STORY!)

The next day Roy was up early. He sort of had to be. He couldn't come out of Ed's room in the middle of the day. I mean sure...he goes in and out of Ed's room all the time but, it's different when he hasn't been seen all day.

He opened the door to the Security room and gaped. Bodies were scattered all around the room. He slapped a hand to his face and cussed under his breath.

"WAKE UP YOU LAZY IDIOTS!" Roy yelled angrily. Everyone woke up with a start.

Hughes stretched widely as he yawned, he looked up at Roy. "Well if it isn't-" Hughes barely got a chance to finish his sentence when Roy set his hair on fire. Hughes yelped and went into the 'stop drop and roll' procedure. Riza poured someone's stale soda on his head to put it out.

"Now all of you...if you please...GET TO WORK!"

"Yes sir." Everyone said tiredly.

"um Sir?" Some one questioned.

"What?" He asked annoyed.

"Do you mind if we take a shower first?"

Everyone mumbled their agreement. Roy sighed. "Have at it...but make it quick." He turned to walk back out the door then stopped. "Oh and LT.Hawkeye."

"Sir?"

"Make sure you get that camera back to it's regular position."

Riza looked at the ground. "uh..yes Sir."

Roy left the room and Hughes began to laugh. Riza hit him over the head with the muzzle of her gun. "Keep quiet."

Ed sat up and rubbed his eyes. "Oh man...what time is it?" He mumbled. He got out of bed and took a shower.

He then got dressed and headed towards the library.

"I'm so tired." He yawned walking through the hallway, When he stopped at the library he looked around. It was just how he had left it.

"Except.."He bent over and picked up a tea glass that was now chipped.

"Well..this is great." He said noticing that the tea spilt on one of the books. He picked it up and looked it over. He didn't notice this book before. He sat down at the book covered table and flipped through the book he found. He gasped as his eyes widened.

"This is it."he said amazed he grabbed the book and rushed out of the library in a hurry to find Al.

"SORRY!" Ed yelled back almost Colliding into Roy.

Roy sighed. "That's okay, you only almost ran me over." Roy said sarcastically.

"AL!"Ed called running out of the HQ.

"Al WHERE ARE YOU!"Ed said running along the sidewalk

"Crap..where is Al." he thought, coming to a hault. "Oh yeah..he was over at Gracia's sleep over party." He laughed to himself. When Al told him that he wanted to go to the little girls sleep over, he shot soda out through his nose. And if you've ever done that before, you know it hurts. But he was laughing to much to notice the acidic burning in his nostrils.

He began running in the other direction to go find Hughe's house.

When he got to the house he knocked loudly on the door. A woman answered the door.

"Hey Mrs. Hughes, I came looking for Al, is he here?"

"Oh hi Edward." She gave a small giggle. "You must be talking about Mrs.Alphonsa"

"Uh...what?"Ed said completely takin of guard.

She gave another small laugh. "Take a look for yourself."She said opening the door wide so that Ed could walk through.

"Uh thanks."He said unsure. The sight before him hit him like a punch in the face. Ed began to make small, choking sounds in his throat as he tried to keep himself from laughing. But he couldn't hold it in any longer and broke out in uncontrollable laughter.

Al was holding a small cup in his hand. Al, Gracia and her friends were all in a circle on the floor dressed up in clothing that was too big for them. Al's outfit was a little tight considering, it was Mrs. Hughes pink dress. He was wearing a wierd light pink hat with a large hot pink ostrich feather on the top. Gracia was leaning over Al's cup with concentration as she poured him some 'tea' which was actually cold water. When she was done she sighed and set the cup aside. "There you go Miss. Alphonsa."

"Uh thank you." he said unsure.

"Now would anyone like a cookie?" She asked politely.

One of her friends cleared her throat. "Yes Miss. Gracia, I would love to have a cookie, if I may."

Everyone turned to look when they heard Edwards uncontrollable laughter.

"Uh brother what are you doing here?" Al said taken by surprise.

It took Ed a while to regain his seriousness. He called Al over to him so they could talk without interrupting the 'party'.

"What is it?"

Ed grinned ear to ear. "I found it."He whispered excitedly.

"What?"

"I found it Al! I found how to make the Philosophers stone. (god that MUST be spelled wrong)

Ed frowned slightly when he didn't get the reaction that he was expecting from Al.

"what?" Ed questioned.

"Uh...are you feeling okay brother."

"Of course I am...why would you ask that?" Ed said getting slightly agrivated.

"we found how to make the stone 4 months ago. Remember?"

Ed laughed. "No you idiot!" Ed laughed. He cleared his throat. "I mean..ahem...Miss Alphonsa."

Al glared. "Hey..i didn't know this was ganna happen."

Ed laughed harder. "How could you come to a little girl's sleepover and NOT know this was ganna happen."

"Oh be quiet." Al said pouting.

"Anyways...i meant i found ANOTHER way to make the stone."

"WHAT YOU DID! NO WAY! HOW?"Al said excitedly.

"Well I'll tell you when we get back to HQ now come on!" Ed said pulling his brother.

"Wait Ed!"

"Not now!"Ed said pulling him out the door.

"Oh where are you two going in such a hurry?" Mrs.Hughes asked.

"Sorry! I'LL GET YOUR DRESS BACK TO YOU WHEN I CAN!" Al called getting dragged.

She waved them good bye.

Ed ran as fast as he could, back towards Head Quarters.

"wait brother!" Al said running after him. "You're going too fast."

Ed and Al Eventually burst through the door of Roy's office. Roy looked up from his paper work.

"Can I help you?"Roy asked as he watched Ed fumble to his desk.

Ed used the desk for support as he caught his breath.

"...found...how...make the...stone." He panted.

Roy looked at Ed and leaned back in his chair, putting his feet upon the desk.

"So you found how to make the powerful stone huh?"Roy asked boredly.

Ed looked at him amazed at his lack of interest. "You..you mean you..." Ed paused and narrowed his eyes. "Al go outside. I need to talk to Roy."

"But brother."

"Go!" Ed said firmly.

"Okay."Alphonse said solemnly. "Don't do anything I wouldn't do." he said as he shut the door.

"You're telling me that you knew that the ingredients to making the stone was in our own library this whole time!"

Roy smirked. "I do love it when your angry."

"ANSWER ME!" Ed yelled.

"I never said I DIDN'T know." Roy said simply. He closed his eyes, folded his hands, and placed them behind his head.

"Why didn't you tell-"

"I wanted you to find it yourself. You don't expect people to constantly hand things over to you, do you?"

Ed was growing angry. These are one of those moments when Ed wanted to give Roy one of those face plants.

"And I told you before that i didn't approve of you two going and gathering your bodies back. But now that you found it, i can't stop you." Roy looked at Ed. Ed looked at the ground to avoid Roy's gaze.

"You're welcome to start when you wish." Roy said moving his arms again to cross them across his chest.

"Right."Ed said quietly.

"I'll tell the other officers about your discovery and we'll find safe place for you guys to do the 'transformation' I'm sure it will be an amazing sight for all of us."

"Actually." Ed paused. "I would much rather do it in a deserted factory, so that no one could see." Ed said.

Roy smiled. "well I prefer a locked dark room and a bed with silk sheets, but what ever turns you on."

Ed blushed and walked out of the room lamming the door behind him.

Roy's laughter echoed through the door and through out the halls.

(uh...YEAH! So I hope it was okay..not that best chapter out of the whole thing but..it was okay right? Right! nudges YAY! OKAY! The death WILL be in the next chapter! lol try to guess who it is...actually..it's to be expected when you really think about it lol. But in a way. IT'S NOT FAIR!
