Hello everyone. I would like to apologize for my lack of updates. I'm very very very very sorry. I won't get into details of why I haven't updated because quite frankly I don't think anyone cares. Anyway I do plan on updating more often now that it's summer. Thanks to everyonewho reviewed.Once again I apologize and here's the long awaited chapter 9.

Something amazing happend at the beginning of the second week. Ed and Roy had called a silent truce. No one knew how or why it happened and quite frankly they didn't care. All they knew was that it was a lot quieter around the house.

It was already the 21st of September and there was no sign of Scar. Which according to Amie meant that he was going to arrive any day now. That didn't help ease anyone's apprehension.

Roy had taken to following Amie out into the forest when she went to transform a few times a week. Which meant that Amie had taken to disappearing between the trees leaving Roy hopelessly lost in the dense forest. After a few hours Amie would reappear, seemingly able to find him no matter how far he wandered, and lead him straight out of the forest neither of them uttering a word the entire time.

So here he was wander throughout the forest hopelessly lost waiting for Amie to come and find him. "I can't believe you got us lost!" And Ed was with him.

"I don't recall inviting you to come along Fullmetal."

"I don't recall you telling me we were going to get lost."

"Amie will be along shortly and lead us back."

"She's the one that ditch us back at that big pine tree. How do you know she'll come back for us?"

Ah yes the big pine tree. He knew it well. No matter how much he tried to keep an eye on Amie she was always able to duck behind the big pine tree and disappear. "Because she has yet to leave me here and I don't think she'll start now."

They had been wandering around for about two hours already and they haddecided to stop and sit down in a small field they found in the forest. It had started to rain shortly after that. Not a downpour just a steady mist but enough to make Roy's gloves useless.

"I think there's something out there."

"And I think you're paranoid Fullmetal. It's probably just Amie." Roy was not in a good mood. He was loststanding at the edge of a field in the middle of a forest and he was wet.

"Mustang I'm serious there's something-" The rest of his sentence was cut off when he felt a hand rest on his shoulder. "Ed is right there's someone out there."

"See I told you it was just Amie-wait what do you mean there's someone out there?" Roy and Ed turned around to face Amie and they saw worry evident on her face.

"I think I was quite clear in what I said Flame," As quickly as the emotion appeared it disappeared again behind her well-constructed mask. "Hello Scar."

Ed saw a figure appeared out from behind Amie emerging from the shadows of the forest.

"The allusive Angel alchemist along with the Flame alchemist and the Fullmetal alchemist. It must be my lucky day." Amie turned around to face Scar and Roy silently cursed the fact that the rain was picking up and he had no way of doing his fire alchemy. Yes this day just kept getting better and better.

Sorry about the cliffie. I need to do some more thinking about how I'm going to write the fight scene. I should get chapter 10 up in the next few weeks at the most. Thanks for sticking with me. Please R&R.
