Chapter 4 Auto Mail Time
"I know there is more information I should probably tell them but Blaire will tell them when the time comes." Winry thought to herself. "I had no idea." Al said looking at Blaire. "I didn't either Al." Ed said looking out the window. "That must have been awful, to have a mother not care for you and a father beat you, and when you could die of blood loss." Ed thought to himself. "She had a hard life." Ed and Al thought at the same time.
I like having them tied together, I mean thinking or saying the same thing . -
Blaire woke up to see Ed sitting on a chair by the door asleep and Al in a corner, she couldn't tell if he was awake or asleep. Blaire rubbed her eyes and sat up. She studied her arm moved it back in forth. "It is lighter and looks new!" Blaire thought to herself and smiled. "You're awake!" Al said standing up. "So obviously he is awake." Blaire thought. "Yeah." She answered. "You were asleep for a day." Al said grabbing some soup and tea. "I am fine, I am not hungry." Blaire said weekly as her stomach growled. "No your hungry, here eat something." Al said putting the tray on Blaire's lap. Blaire sat up strait and moaned a little then started eating. Ed started to wake up. "You ok? You gave us quite a scare." Ed said looking at Blaire. "Yeah, I have never been good with the auto mail pain." Blaire said looking from Ed to her soup. Blaire at a little soup then she put it down and drank some tea. "I know it is none of my business, but how did you get your auto mail?" Blaire asked looking at Ed. "Forbidden alchemy." Ed said looking at his feet. "So that is how Al lost his body and you lost your arm and leg." Blaire said. "How did you know about my arm and leg and Al's body?" Ed said standing up. "I predicted it" Blaire paused a little. "Winry told me." Blaire said in a flat tone. She enjoyed jerking Ed around.
Ed was getting his auto mail fixed when Al showed Blaire around the town. "This is where our house was." Al said pointing to the old burnt wood. "You guys burnt down your house didn't you?" Blaire said to Al. Al paused. "…Yes, we did." Al responded. "I would have to, but my house did burn down." Blaire said looking at the wood. "So, you can control light?" Al said trying to get off the subject. "Well, yes. I can also send bolts of light, it can kill someone if it is strong enough, I can also dim or take light from a house or room and putting the energy into a powerful light, or energy ball. Or I can just take away all light. I can do that stuff with out a transmutation circle. These black gloves have a transmutation circle on it to amplify my power. It blends in so it is hard to see, and no one notices. But for all the other alchemy I can draw transmutation circles fast so I can doge things." Blaire said semi showing off when she talked about her ability. "That is really cool, I wonder what mine is?" Al said looking at his hands.
Blaire and Al were walking and talking about alchemy. "Your parents are dead, aren't they?" Al said trying not to seem noisy. "Yes, well my mom is at least, my dad came and went. He wasn't there that night." Blaire said. "What night?" Al said trying not to sound like he knew. "Don't play stupid, I know Winry told you, how could she not." Blaire said. "It is fine, I don't care about them." Blaire said looking at the dirt path. Then there was a light. It flashed from Winry's upstairs window. "That is the sign to go home." Al said looking at it. "I know, Winry told me." Blaire said running towards the house and starting to race Al. "Winry tells you everything!" Al said running. "Yeah she dose." Blaire said to herself.
