Disclaimer: I only own Maria. Eh I hate these stupid things….

Maria laid in her bed and turned over. Her eyes looked at the sleeping form of Ed and sighed. She remembered what it was like to be fifteen. She wondered who had it harder, her or Ed? She turned over to stare up at the ceiling. She sighed again a fell asleep.

That morning…. Maria woke up and looked at her clock. It was eleven! She gasped and quickly put on her military uniform and her hair in a bun. A true military woman always put her hair up in a bun. Right? Right. She turned to go out of the room when Roy stopped in front of her door. "Hola," she said and walked down the stairs with him staring and blushing at her back. She walked into the kitchen and looked around and saw Ed. He looked tired and grumpy. She sighed. "Edward, Edward," she said, "You need to stop reading late at night. Its not good for a growing mind like you." "Yea well…" he thought for a moment and came up with an awesome comeback, "You need to stop talking in your sleep. I heard you last night." Maria blushed and punched Ed on his head (HEY IT RYMED!). "Ouch! What was that for?" "You perfectly know well why." They stared at each other. Maria's brown eyes stared evilly into Ed's golden-brown eyes. If looks could kill well, it would be the Ishbaul Massacre all over again. Link, Marth, Roy, and Young Link walked into the kitchen. They stared at the two alchemists. "It's a good thing you're my lieutenant and not some regular state alchemist," Ed said. "You should be happy that I think you as a brother," Maria replied. "Mrs. Mustang," muttered Ed. Maria blushed and walked over to the fridge. She could be heard muttering how she was going to report Ed to Mustang for not being nice to her. She got out a cereal box and got herself some cereal. Maria sat down and stared at the cereal for a minute. She sighed and started to eat it. "You look really tired," said Y. Link, "Were you up all night?" "Yea," said Ed, "I was reading a book about Equivalent Exchange." "What?" Roy asked. "Equivalent Exchange. It's basically where if you want something you have to give something in return," Maria said. The four swordsmen looked at Maria. She got up and threw her paper bowl away. "What? You never seen a science wiz who was a girl? Sheesh!" Then she walked out of the room. Ed was trying to stifle a laugh. "Oh yea," said Roy, "You have a match against Link today!" Maria waved to show that she acknowledged him. Roy blushed. Ed rolled his eyes.

In the teleportation room thingy…. Maria stood waiting for Link to show up. Ed sat down in the stands and said, "HEY LIEUTENANT! CATCH!" He threw Maria's gun to Maria and she caught it. "Thanks, Ed," she muttered. She pocketed the gun and saw Link show up. "Ready to get this over with," said Maria carelessly. She was getting pretty annoyed with Roy blushing every time she showed up. Link nodded. They heard Master Hand's voice: "This match will take place in Hyrule Temple. Time is five minutes. Stock is one. All items." Maria shrugged as she stepped into the teleporter thing. They were transported to the stage and Master Hand said, "GO!" Link unsheathed his sword and Maria put on her gloves. Link slashed at Maria. "Shit! Watch where you slash your frickin' sword," said Maria. "Oh will you shut up," Link replied, "Girls are such a pain!" This hit a nerve. Maria waved her right hand and a wall of water came down on Link. "HEY! How did you do that?" Maria rolled her eyes and waved her hand again. This time a wave came and knocked down Link. Maria ran over, stepped on Link's chest, and pulled out her gun. Then it hit. The worst memory that Maria always had came back to her. She stared at Link and a tear fell down her cheek. She looked up and yelled, "I forfeit!" They were teleported back and Maria left the room in a hurry. "Lieutenant," said Ed. He ran after her. "What happened back there? You reminded me a lot of Colonel Fuckface," he said. "Ed. Don't call him that. But I guess I'd better tell you." Ed sat down in a chair and Maria sat down too.

"You know about the Ishbaul Massacre right?" Ed nodded. "Well when the Alchemists were called in my father was one of them. My parents were already divorced and I didn't want to go back to my mom's. So during the Massacre my dad had to go somewhere. I really don't remember where. But he gave me a gun. He told me if any Ishbauleans were causing any trouble then to shoot them. Well I had cornered one and the look of fear on his face was so sad. But he was about to shoot me when I shot him. I stared at the fallen Ishbaulean. I wanted to kill myself. Then I don't remember anything after that. It becomes all blurry from there." Maria started to cry. She put her head in her arms on the table. "I never saw anything so horrible in my life. I was only twelve!" Ed put his auto-mail arm on her shoulder. She was just like Mustang in one way: she had scars from the Ishbaul Massacre.
