A/N - As a before thought, I just want to let you all know that I got most of my alchemy statistics and data information from Harry Potter, FMA and the Internet. But because it is a mixture, this story will not flow perfectly with everyone else's concepts of the Art of Alchemy. So please enjoy, and should I be WAY off, inform me please. Thank you. Enjoy...
-Central City, Military Hospital-
Izumi lay on a white hospital bed with Sig sitting in a chair next to her. Standing on the other side was Ed. Al had gone off to Izumi's house to find her pills. In the doorway stood the military officers. They all watched as Izumi laid, motionless staring up at the ceiling. A nurse entered and behind her was Al holding a small bottle of pills.
"Here teacher, I ran as fast as I could."
Al handed them to Sig who dissed out the pills and handed them to Izumi with a cup of water. She sat up and took the pills and drank the water. She made a face as she drank the water. It tasted different then the water in Dublith, probably because it was filtered.
"Thank you Al, your timing was perfect."
Izumi smiled and laid her head back down on the pillow.
"We need to take these when ever we travel."
Sig said as he placed them inside his pocket.
"I didn't expect to use alchemy in a city full of...state alchemists."
At this, Roy stepped forward and approached the edge of the bed.
"You wouldn't of had to if you let the authorities handle the work."
Roy remained stern, even when Izumi gave him a death glare. This was Roy's territory and he didn't need any no-name alchemist trampling on his turf.
"I would have let the so called authorities handle it if they did their job and didn't let those men hold a gun at my head."
Izumi yelled back.
"Next time don't get involved."
Roy yelled back. By now, Ed and al were white as ghosts in the corner cringing. Riza noticed this and stepped forward.
"Sir..."
Both Izumi and Roy glared at her, but she didn't even flinch. She however did glare back at Roy who backed down. He then went on to mumble something under his breath about woman and meanness. Just then, Roy noticed the Flamel on Izumi's chest. He tried not to stare, already knowing her wrath. Sig however did notice Roy staring and began to stand up. Izumi caught on and placed a hand on Sig's arm.
"The Flamel?"
She looked over at Roy who shook his head. He nodded and Izumi smiled.
"Don't know why I'm explaining... (sigh) ...I got it after an attempt at human transmutation over ten years ago."
Ed and Al stared at her. They have yet to know she attempted it. Ed's mouth dropped open. At this time, Izumi was sitting back up and crawling off the bed, with some help from Sig. and soon slowly walked to the door. Soon all of them left the building and began walking once again down the street.
"Oh teacher, here..."
Ed handed her the book and she took it smiling.
"Teacher, if you attempted human transmutation, why did you screamed and beat us when we told you we attempted it."
Izumi glared at him.
"Thats because I'm the teacher. Do as I say... not as I do..."
She coughed again, but this time, luckily no blood.
Roy smiled and mouthed something off to Ed about having a girl for a teacher. Izumi looked down just in time to see this and. A vein popped out.
"What's wrong with a girl as a teacher?"
She screamed at him.
"Nothing, I just can't believe a 'girl' taught them alchemy."
"What's wrong with a girl alchemist?"
By this time Izumi was glowing red again. She was very pissed off at Roy. Roy however just smiled and closed his eyes. He knew he was pissing her off.
"Now I know where Ed gets it from. His 'short' temper. his bad attitude..."
"WHO ARE YOU CALING..."
"Hey! You think just because I'm a girl... I can't do alchemy?"
Izumi cut off Ed's screaming with her own. She approached Roy who finally opened his eyes and was now staring face to face with Izumi. Riza stepped between the two and grabbed Izumi's wrist, which was about to attack Roy and pushed her back. Riza was now also pissed. She was not taking it lightly how Izumi was screaming at her superior.
"Back off..."
Riza calmly, but angrily stated. Izumi went to push Riza aside but Riza ducked. Roy however got slapped. Seeing this, Riza pushed Izumi back further and pulled out her gun. But before she could shoot, Izumi jumped up, landed on her hands and kicked the gun away. She went to attack Riza but Riza countered it with her own kick. Soon the two girls were caught up in a very good martial arts hand-to-hand fight. They were matched attack for attack. The other boys just stood by and watched as the girls fought it out in the middle of Central. Thankfully, no one was around.
Neither girl used anything but hands and legs to fight with. No alchemy, no guns. Finally, after about twenty minutes, Riza landed on one side of the street in perfect posture and Izumi landed only a few feet away, also perfect posture. Both were breathing very hard. Then, Izumi clapped her hands together and Riza drew her gun. By this time, Roy and Sig ran across the street and restrained the two girls.
"Okay... end this..."
They stated as they held back the girls.
"General, I order you to halt..."
At this command, Riza stood still and placed her gun back in it's holster. Izumi stopped struggling, knowing she wasn't gonna break free of her husband's hold, and then stood straight again. The two stared at each other. Ed leaned into his brother and whispered.
"Hell knows no fury like two pissed off women..."
Izumi and Riza both glared at the boys who cringed and attempted to hide behind a light pole. Riza then walked away, crossing the street and fetching her gun Izumi kicked away. After re-holstering hr guns, she walked back to Roy and stood next to him, ready to pounce.
"We will get nothing accomplished if you two can't get along."
Roy stated, not angrily, but controlling.
"What's this we?"
Izumi demand as she reopened her book and began reading.
