21. Never play video games with Ed

Cheep-cheep-BOOM! Cheep-cheep-BOOM!

"MUAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Cheep-cheep-BOOM! Cheep-cheep-BOOM!

"DIE, YOU DAMN, DIRTY LITTLE BOMB WIELDING PUNY IDIOTIC MINIATURE RATS! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"What's he going on about now, Fury?" Hawkeye asked disinterestedly as strains of Ed's voice floated down the hall.

"I, uh, believe he is playing video games, sir- eh, ma'am," Fury babbled meekly.

"Haha, kill the liddle buggers Ed! Kill them! KILL THEM!" Havoc yelled from where he and Ed were playing Windwaker.

"DIE! DIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIE!" Ed roared in savage glee as he hacked at rats with bombs.

That's right. Rats with bombs. You know, when you go to the Forsaken Fortress a second time and all the rats like to throw bombs at you?

Roy walked into the room. "What are they doing?" he asked, horrified. "Are they blowing up rats, or something?"

"No, Colonel, they are playing video games."

"Oh! It's Windwaker, isn't it? That's the only thing with rats throwing bombs! I think…"

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Ed howled as the rats with bombs ended Link's life.

"HA! Now it's MY turn to play!" Havoc yelled joyfully.

"Okay, okay, let me save my game," snarled Ed.

"Yeah, you better, 'cause I'm gonna get all the best things and it'll wipe you out!"

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING SO SMALL THAT HE'S THE SIZE OF A MICROSCOPIC ANT WITH A BRAIN SO TINY YOU COULDN'T FIND IT ON A PINPOINT!" Ed roared furiously.

"Uh… I just said I'd wipe you out-"

"IS THAT A THREAT!"

"Calm down, Fullmetal, we all know that despite your size, your lungs are normal," Roy smirked.

"Shut up, Mustang, or I might be tempted to show these people what you look like when you can't snap to save your life!"

"Oh, you mean these?" Roy said innocently, waving a handful of pictures that showed him being dive-bombed by mini airplanes.

For the second time in this story, Ed looked like a fish as he gaped at the picture Mustang made: haughty smirk, an air of confidence, never at loss for the right smart-ass comment…

Ed snapped.

Dun dun dun…


A/n- Muahahaha! You will never know what happens to Roy! Until…the next chapter…

I hope this will make Ed less out of character, Snophlake Cat.

Me has been busy because my friend left for somewhere(can't remember) and lent us her Gamecube… thus, the video game part… And before that, I had to go to Monterey because my parents had some weird seminar thing for teachers(my Dad's the principal of one of the major high schools down here, my mom is a learning director for Clark Intermediate) for four days. We were at a five star hotel… not as nice as the one in Lima, though…
