Ed: -sigh- Do you always have to say that?
me: No, but I want to.
Ed: Where did everyone go?
me: Besides you and me, no clue.
Ed: How awkward...
me: -awkward silence- Uh... I'll be in the kitchen...
Ed: -hops onto couch- Whatever.
3 hours later...
Ed: WHERE IS EVERYONE!
me: -walks out of the kitchen dirty- Dunno, but you don't need to hollar.
Ed: Why are you dirty?
me: I had to fix the stove.
Ed: This entire time!
me: Nope. I had to clean the house as well. Also,
mangagurl 101: Well, I updated and Thank you()!
Ed: You could have used alchemy.
me: Where's the fun in that? Well, I don't own FMA, if I did, I would have added the new characters I made.
Ed: Makes sense, but...

Ed: WHERE IS EVERYONE!

Ch. 28 Training
"I'm still confused." Sam replied making Soya and Sarai sigh.
"I'm not human. I transform into different things. The person right here is your Auntie Soya." Sarai explained again, a bit annoyed.
"Okay. How are you not human?" Sam asked making Sarai sigh.
(((Space)))
This is gonna take awhile. I thought as I stood up.
"Where are you going?" Sam asked and I looked at Soya.
"To talk to your father. Stay here and talk to your Aunt, okay?" I asked and Sam nodded.
I went down the hall and up the stairs. I went into the main bedroom and saw Ed lying on the bed.
"Sam's okay. He's getting to know Soya." I told Ed and he sat up.
"What about Tan-"
"She ran into Soya and she's in the living room." I replied, hearing Ed give a sigh of relief.
I sat next to Ed and looked at him.
"Ed, they're gonna come back and we need to prepare the kids for it."
"Yeah. I'm gonna train Sam myself." Ed replied getting up.
"Be careful. You have automail and Sam doesn't." I warned and Ed turned and faced me.
"I know." Ed replied and he left the room.
But what will I do to help Tanya? She thinks she's a sin... I thought and got a flashback of Tanya trapping me in ice.
If I can help her snap out of it and help her harness her dormant powers, then she will be able to match the sin's power. I thought, going down the stairs and into the living room.
Tanya was waking up. I quickly made a blue stone and threw it at Tanya. There was a bright, orange light. When it subsided, the stone disappeared.
"Tanya?" I asked walking slowly over to her.
"Hmm...?" She replied getting up from the floor.
Good. I thought as I walked over to her.
Meanwhile...
"Well...?"
"The brat ran into Kira's sister." Envy replied sheepishly as Lust jumped down from the table.
"Anger destroyed her and the brother." Lust stated, but Envy shook his head.
"I destroyed him, but the other one must have escaped through the tunnel."
Lust and Envy turned to see a woman with a red halter top, a red mini-skirt, black hair with yellow streaks, and slightly tanned skin walk towards them.
"Well, well... if it isn't Anger." Envy snickered, but Anger ignored him.
"What should we do? Since Envy made that mistake, Kira and the pipsqueak will probraly train them." Anger concluded making Lust give Envy a cold stare.
"What was I supposed to do!" Envy yelled making Lust sigh.
"We are gonna have to destroy their "training time", won't we?" Lust asked looking at Envy and Anger.
"It appears so." Anger replied before disappearing into the shadows.
Back in Resembool...
"Whoa!" Ed yelled dodging Sam's punch.
Ed tried to trip him, but Sam jumped. Sam kicked Ed in the face and Ed flew a couple feet. Ed slided and got up.
It doesn't even look like he needs training! Ed thought as he ran towards Sam.
Ed tried to punch Sam, but he ducked. Sam punched him in the stomach and he doubled over. Sam kneed Ed and he fell.
"Are we done?" Sam asked as he helped Ed up.
"Yup. We are." Ed replied walking into the house with Sam.
Sam went to the kitchen and Ed went outside. Ed took one step towards the stairs and a sharp icicle zipped right past Ed's face.
"Holy-"
"Sorry daddy!"
Ed looked towards the front of the house and saw Tanya waving at him. Ed went down the steps and walked towards Tanya.
"Sorry Ed." Sarai apologized as Ed picked up Tanya and whirled her around.
"I'm a bird! I'm a bird!" Tanya yelled happily and Ed put her down.
(((Space)))
It's so peaceful here. Why did they want to come here? Al thought walking out, onto the back porch.
"They want more than just Sam and Tanya. I'm sure of it." Al said quietly walking towards the field.
"Probraly."
Al turned and saw Soya sitting on the railing.
"I didn't here you come out." Al replied and Soya sighed.
"I was already out here." Soya replied and Al wondered why she was out here.
"The sun's setting..." Al sighed.
"Yeah, and it's beautiful." Soya replied as the sun turned a yellowish orange color.
"I have a question." Al asked and Soya sighed.
"Fire away."
"You came here by yourself,"
Soya stiffened.
"So where's Spencer?" Al asked and Soya bit her lip.
Soya quivered for a minute and then burst into tears.
"He's dead, Al! The sins killed him! He told me to run and he got hit by a mine explosion!" Soya cried and Al gasped.
Soya was about to fall off the railing, but Al caught her. Soya immediately passed out and Al had become concerned.
Why didn't she say this before? Al thought as he ran into the house.
(((Space)))
"Stay right here." I told Tanya and Ed.
I walked inside the house and heard someone crying. I went upstairs and into the main bedroom. Al was trying to comfort Soya who was crying nonstop.
"What happened?" I asked and Al sighed.
"Sarai... Spencer's dead." Al replied and probraly regretted it.
I stood there, frozen. It was like my feet were stuck to the ground and that my body wouldn't listen to my commands.
"Sarai? Are you alright?" Al asked very concerned as I heard Ed and Tanya come in the house.
"But... he... and... wouldn't..." I said slowly and then it hit me full force.
"Dead." I whispered as my head dropped.
"Many people are dying on you now, aren't they?"
I was in front of a mirror. My reflection stepped out of it and in front of me.
"I haven't seen you in a very long time. You've grown, and got married..." My reflection sighed as my knees gave out and I dropped to her feet.
"Why does this happen to me! I only cause misery to the loved one's near me!" I screamed and my reflection sat down in front of me.
"Sshh. Come here." She beckoned as I was eight years old again.
I ran into her arms and sobbed. She brought a mirror out and showed it to me. It showed me collapsing and Al jumping off the bed. I was on the ground and Al yelled for Ed.
"This only proves my point." I said in my childish eight-year old voice as Ed entered the room.
He felt for a pulse and yelled at Al to do something. Soya was on the bed and looked scared. Ed told Soya to do something and she nodded. Ed picked up my body and put it on the bed.
"What is happening?" I asked as my reflection shook her head.
I felt a pain start to grow in my back. I jumped off her lap and stared at her wide-eyed.
"Why did you do that? Come here and look into the mirror." She beckoned as I became my regular self.
"Your just like a Lamprey(1), you are slippery like an eel, but have sharp teeth like a leech." I snickered as she frowned.
"What do you mean?" She asked innocently and I snorted out of disgust.
I turned into a wolf and slashed her arm. It revealed a set of sharp circular teeth and she immediately stood up.
"Well, I never! I simply wanted-"
"To take my life without it being so painful? Shut the fuck up lady." I replied angrily and she revealed her true form that made me gasp in horror.
