Ed, Al, and Winry followed a loud sound that sounded like screaming. It led them to a long hallway filled with the cries of babies.
Meanwhile in the hospital room…
"Roy!" Riza called him to her side.
"Yes, I'm here…yow! Honey you're squeezing my hand." He came to her side like a dog following its master.
"Roy, hand me that gun in my holster right over there." He grabbed the gun and handed it to her.
"What do you want it for?" he asked.
She cocked it and put it to his head.
"Huh? I don't understand. Why are you so moo…," he was about to say moody but decided against it, "Did I mention you look great when you're angry?" he winked and gave a weary almost scared smile.
"Maes," Roy whispered to his friend, "you never said she was going to be this angry."
"I guess all women act differently, bye now." He zoomed off; things are going to get pretty bad in there. He thought while running away.
The Elrics and Winry finally found the right room…or so they thought they found the right room.
"We're here." Ed proclaimed as he fell to the floor.
"Ed what's wrong?" Winry asked as she looked at the room, "Oh sorry, ha. Wrong room."
They heard another loud scream followed by the ever so familiar click of a gun.
They ran about three rooms down, and they finally found their room.
"On the count of three I want you to give us a nice long push, ok?" the doctor instructed.
Riza gave a slight nod.
"One"
"Two"
"Three"
She pushed, but the baby was not coming yet.
Riza was in pain and Roy had to watch, as he could do nothing to ease it. He grabbed her hand and told her everything was going to be fine.
"Take deep, calming breaths, Miss." The nurse told Riza.
"Now let's try another push." The doctor said.
"Push!" he instructed.
She gave another push, and now you could see the top of the baby's head.
"Good job. Now one more push." The doctor said.
So she gave one more push, but that didn't quite do it, so she gave about two more, and the baby was out.
They cleaned the baby and checked it over before handing it to Riza.
It was at that time the Elrics and Winry arrived.
"Great it's here and we missed the whole thing. Let's go see it." Ed was first to jump in the door.
"Hey Shrimp." Roy greeted.
"It's not like me, but I'll let you off the hook this time since you're a dad, and I want to be a good role model as…her…umm…his…uh…its uncle." Ed proclaimed with every once of dignity.
Winry and Al had small hearts sprouting from their heads as they hovered over Riza and the baby.
"So…is it a boy or a girl?" Ed asked.
"Girl." Riza confirmed.
"Do you have a name?" Winry and Al asked in the same exuberant fashion.
"Hannah Louis Mustang." Roy said, "She'll grow up strong and beautiful…"
Hannah had thick, black hair, much like her father's, and she had black eyes, but they weren't in the form of slits like Roy's, but they were more like her mother's.
Armstrong and Maes burst through the door, "She'll be trained in the Armstrong arts… that is if you would like Miss Riza."
"Uhh…well I don't…"she responded.
"Absolutely not she'll be a flame alchemist just like me." Roy corrected.
"Well… that's uhh…"
"What about Al and I train her?"
Riza was dumbfounded.
"Why don't we let her decide once she gets older?" She suggested.
"Ok." They all agreed.
3 weeks later…
Riza was out of the hospital and our story is back to square one.
"Like I said a while back, we should just go on an all out assault. We can take the homunculi. Just give me a little time with that hot one…Lust, and I'll seduce to kill." Havoc stated.
Everyone sweat dropped.
"Fine, I guess if you can get Douglas than maybe you can get her, but mind you, she's a lot smarter than the others." Roy confirmed.
"Trust me on this one chief, she's practically already in my web of doom." Havoc reassured while putting an evil emphasis on web of doom.
"We may have a problem though," Ed spoke up, "A little while ago this guy named Scar came after us. He said that he was on a mission to kill all the state alchemists."
"So…" Roy asked.
"So… what if he shows up? God only knows he's spying on us, but on the other hand, I did a little bit of research on him and the markings on his arm, and I found out, from Dr. Marco's research, that the markings have something to do with the Philosopher's stone."
Roy froze at the name, and Riza noticed.
"What's the matter, sir?" she asked.
"That name." he responded still in a shocked manner.
"What about it?" She asked again.
"Nothing…it's nothing." But as he turned he saw Winry, and the flash of her parents on the floor covered in blood flashed before his eyes.
He shook his head clear, and turned back around, "Let's just get back to the plan."
A/N: sorry about the long update, Im really neglecting my other stories though so it may be another long update next time too. I hope you enjoyed this chapter even though it was rather short.
