Disclaimer: I do not own FullMetal Alchemist..If I did Ed would rule the world! ...Next to me of coarse..

Claimer: However I do own Aoi! ..Atleast I own something..


A woman came out from behind double doors wearing a green striped dress and in the front was a white apron,covered in different stains of food. In her hands a basket filled with white cloth.
"Hello and welcome to my inn!"
The girl said in a cheery and annoying high pitched voice.
Ed and Al stared at her "W-wait you own this whole thing?" Al asked with disbelief in his voice.
The girl was about Al's age..maybe even younger from how she talked.
"Yep!" she nodded. "Would ya like something to eat?"

"Yeah I'm starving!" Ed said smiling,as if on cue his stomach growled.
Ed and Al walked into the resturant part of the Inn and sat down at a table near a window.
"I'll be with you two in a moment."
The girl said going into the kitchen.

She returned a few minutes later with a notepad. "What can I get you two for a drink?"
Ed looked back at her. "Orange Juice"
Al shook his metal hands. "No thank you,I'm not thirsty."
The girl nodded and scurried off into the kitchen once more.

Ed looked at the menu,it had the same sunflower and mint people decorating the menu, he twitched when just about everything had mints in it.

"Nii-san why did you want to come here?" Al asked looking out the window,the streets had calmed down since earlier.

"Well I heard a rumor about a stone exactly like the Philosopher's Stone except their aren't any risks,and it doesn't need humans. I also heard that their was a researcher who had studied and created the rumored stone,I was hoping to possibly get some more information about it."
Edward explained.
"Wow that is good news. I just so happen to know something about that stone!" The girl had come back and placed the glass of juice near Ed.
"H-How long have you been standing there!" Edward asked,thinking 'what is she a cat?'
"Ohhh..not to long." The girl smiled.
"...Oh..well can you just give me the information about the stone please?"
Edward asked.

"Well sure! It is called the Himawari stone..or the Sunflower stone as it is reffered to most because of its bright yellow color.
Like you had said it is like the Philosopher's Stone only less risky.
All of my father's notes are in the basement. My father, who created the Himawari Stone had put his mind to work as an alchemist to try to create the mimic Philosopher's Stone."
She lost her smile for a moment then it returned a few seconds later.
"You could stay here a while and research it,as..some of the notes were lost in a house fire when my father was showing someone some of the notes.." The girl explained the last part sadly,and looked to the floor.

"Wow..I wish we could stay, but I don't have that much money left."
Edward said, slightly saddened that the cheery happy girl lost her father in a fire.

"Well I guess I could let you two stay here for free as long as you help me clean around the Inn.
Oh yeah I'm Aoikajitsu. Aoi for short. But you can call me Boss.
"
Aoi smirked and walked out of the resturant.

"BOSS!" Edward yelled looking very angrily torward the door Aoi had gone through.
"Nii-san calm down." Alphonse said waving his arms trying to cool is elder brother down.
"But what right of hers does she have to make me call her Boss! I haven't even known her that long."
Edward exclaimed,face red with anger.
"Nii-san..you done?"
Ed nodded and sunk down in his chair.

"Nii-san I'm sure Aoi didn't mean any harm."
Ed rolled his eyed "Ohhh so you actually remember her name?" Edward asked sarcastically,venting the rest of his steam.
