Chapter forty-five: The
rest of the gang
"Oh… So you fell in these enchanted waters and you turned into a cat." Yvette summarized.
"Yeah." Coniniaue was still clutching Edward's red jacket to her. "CAN I GET SOME CLOTHES? PLEASE?"
Roy kicked a storage closet door closed. "Sorry, fresh out. You'll have to go home."
"YOU PERVERT!" She almost let go, but thought better of it. "Edward, punch him for me."
"Will do."
BAM.
"Ouch! Not with your metal hand!"
"Coniniaue didn't say which hand. So naturally, I chose my metal one." Edward smirked and looked at Coniniaue. "Now, um, you can keep my jacket until I buy you something to wear…" Of course, he rushed out to buy something he wanted to see Coniniaue wear.
"Yvette, if you will be as so kind as to slap Roy for me…"
SLAP.
"Oww! What was that for?"
"Staring at me leery-eyed."
"Oh please, you are sixteen, you're too young and totally not my type."
"What about that time I saw you making out with…"
"Pay you twenty bucks to say you saw nothing."
Coniniaue opened her mouth and Roy slipped the twenty in. "I saw nuffink!"
Edward rushed in right then. "Here!" He tossed Coniniaue a bundle of bags. "Go change in the bathroom!"
"That was fast…" Yvette muttered.
"No way! I'm not leaving this room!" Coniniaue complained.
"Then change in the closet!" Edward opened the closet door and shoved her inside.
"ROY! WHY ARE THERE EXTRA UNIFORMS IN HERE? AND WHY ARE THERE TONS OF THEM IN MY SIZE?"
"No reason!"
Edward rubbed his hands together evilly. "Heh heh heh…"
Edward got her a black halter top and a black miniskirt. She walked out and threw Edward his jacket. "Damn you, Edward Elric…"
"I'm a sixteen year old boy, what can I say…"
"I'm a twenty seven year old boy and I can say you look hot!"
SLAP.
"SHUT UP, COLONEL ROY BASTARD!"
"The rest of your gang will be here soon…
Edward glanced at Yvette. "I have to go on this mission with a GANG? There's MORE? How many?"
"Three." Roy chuckled.
