Chapter two
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOUR OUTTA MEAT BUNS? I ALREADY PAID FOR THEM, SO GIVE ME MY MEAT BUNS!" A girl with curly brunette hair shouted at the waiter in the dining cart of the train.
Ed and Al abruptly stopped eating and turned their attention towards the shouting girl. Winry noticed the 'wait...I know that voice' expression on Ed's face and quickly changed her voice.
"Umm...I mean...can I at least get my money back sir?" Winry said in a cute southern accent.
"Uhh...sure..." The waiter said in a confused way and walked back to the main dining cart to retrieve the girl's money.
"huh...I could have sworn I heard Winry's voice..." Ed said to Al a few tables back from Winry.
"Really? Me too!" Al agreed with his nii-san.
'Oh crap!' Winry had to think quickly! And change the subject before the two put the pieces together!
"Oh! Aren't you the Fullmetal Alchemist?" Winry said walking to Ed and Al's table. Still in that cute southern accent of hers.
"Why, yes I---" Ed stopped when he realized the girl walked passed him and stopped at Al.
"I guess that's why they call you Fullmetal!" Winry giggled.
"Well, uhhh, actually..." Al said embarrassed. People ALWAYS make the same mistake! Over and over! Even after 3 years! (A/n: to lazy to check how long Ed was in the military...was it 3 yrs? He started at like 12 or 13 right? Correct me if I'm wrong)
"I'M THE FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST!" Winry could see that Ed was trying to hold back his anger, but Winry only wanted to go on with her little game.
"Well, I thought he was 16, not 12" Winry looked at Ed with a disbelieving expression.
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING A BEAN!" Ed stood up and faced the unknown girl. Winry wanted to come up with a snazzy comeback like she always did. But she held back, she wouldn't want to act too much like herself.
"B-brother..." Al said nervously.
"I-I'm so sorry! I'm such an idiot!" Winry began to shed fake tears.
"gahhh!" Ed was shocked. He didn't want to make her cry! I guess it was because he was always fighting with Winry he had gotten used to it. He expected her to say something like "You, You idiot! Who else in here is as short as you?" or something like that...
"D-Don't cry! I didn't mean for you to cry!" Ed TRIED to soothe her but...the thing was...he didn't KNOW HOW too in the first place.
"I'll give you my meat bun if you stop crying..." Al said, after all he couldn't eat...But, he didn't mean for the plan to ACTUALLY work, he meant for it to be a little joke...
"REALLY?" Winry stopped crying and gladly took the meat bun off of Al's plate.
"uhh...sure..." Al said with a sweatdrop on his metal head.
"I'm Alphonse Elric, and this is my older brother, Edward Elric" Al introduced the two.
"Oh, well nice to meet you! I'm Win---dy? W-Wendy! Wendy Hamorie" Winry quickly covered up her mistake. (A/n: ehh...I made the last name up...pronounced Huh-more-ee)
"Nice to meet you..." Ed and Al both said...uneasily...something wasn't right about this girl.
"Mind if I sit with you two? I don't know anyone on this train..." 'Wendy' said with a polite smile.
"uhh sure..." Ed said and she took a seat next to him.
Silence...chirp...chirp...
"Soooo uh...where're you guys heading?" Wendy asked.
"To central..." Al replied.
"Ah! Me too!" Wendy said and smiled...
"Well...duh...this train is only GOING TO central..." Ed mumbled.
'WHAT WAS THAT SHRIMP!" Wendy thought to herself but decided to keep her anger and rage inside.
"Are you going to go visit some relatives?" Wendy asked the two.
"No...just business..." Ed said looking out the window...
'damn...he still won't fess' up..' Wendy pouted.
Bing bong
'Passengers, please get ready to board off the train...' The speaker rang.
"Oh, well, I gotta go get my stuff!" Wendy stood up and went to go get her bags.
"She's weird..." Ed said as 'Wendy' left.
Al just laughed nervously.
As the train stopped and Ed and Al got their bags, they went on ahead towards their room...
Winry stepped off the train and headed out of the station...she paused...
"Wait a minute..." She said still in her fake accent...
"I have no where to stay!" Winry slumped down sulking...
Passer Byers gave her funny looks.
"Ah! I know!" Winry had an idea and called for a cab.
Ding dong! The doorbell rang.
"Coming!" A little girls' voice answered and opened the door.
"Hey there Elysia!" Winry smiled.
"Who're you?" Elysia asked confused.
"Oh! Hehe I forgot!" Winry wiped her face and took off her wig.
"onee-chan!" Elysia hugged Winry.
"Kaa-san! Onee-chan's back!" Elysia ran into the house with Winry following behind her.
"Winry-chan?" Gracia came out with a broom in hand.
"Nice to see you again Mrs. Hughes" Winry bowed politely. She followed Gracia inside to the kitchen and took a seat.
"It's so nice to see you again! What brings you here?" Gracia went to the kitchen to fix up some lemonade.
"Well...uhhh...you see..." Winry said embarrassed with herself.
"Are you serious?" Gracia laughed lightly as she sat down across from Winry, Winry nodded her face flamed.
"That's very bold of you..." Gracia sipped her lemonade.
Elysia was sitting next to Winry confused. She looked back at the blushing Winry and back to her mother.
"huh?" she said lightly tilting her head to one side.
"You don't need to worry about it!" Winry waved her hands around.
"So...you came here to stalk the Elric brothers on their journey?" A voice said from the door.
"Daddy!" Elysia got off her chair and ran to Maes smiling cutely.
"Awww Elysia you look soooo adorable today!" Hughes said all floaty-like.
Winry sweatdropped while Gracia smiled.
"I can't believe you're actually going to stalk them" Hughes snickered while holding Elysia.
"I AM NOT STALKING THEM!" Winry boomed.
"I-I was just joking! Don't hurt me!" Hughes moved to the opposite end of the room afraid that the scary girl would kill him.
Winry sat back down with a 'humph' and folded her arms together. "I'm just going to see why Ed always breaks his automail..." Winry stated matter-of-factly.
"You know, if you go with them, you're putting yourself in danger...Ed is a dog of the military afterall..." Hughes switched from his 'obsesses daddy' mode to a serious one.
"I know..." Winry looked down.
"Why don't you just ask them what they've been doing?" Hughes suggested.
"I've tried so many times! They never tell me anything! Even when we were little!" Winry shouted without thinking. She quickly covered her mouth.
"I'm sorry..." She whispered quietly.
Hughes looked at her with gentle eyes.
"-sigh- I won't stop you...but I did warn you..." Hughes said with a shrug.
"Really? Thank-you Mr. Hughes!" Winry hugged Hughes.
"Just call me Hughes" Hughes ruffled her head.
"So I'm guessing I'm not suppose to let them know you're here?" Hughes asked while taking a glass of lemonade.
Winry shook her head yes.
"ok...well...the Elrics brothers are going on a mission tomorrow...so I guess I CAN assign you to work with them..." Hughes scratched his head.
"Really?" Winry asked excited.
"Well I'll see if I can do it...I'm going to call a few people first" Hughes walked out of the kitchen.

"What do you want?" Edward walked into Roy's room with an annoyed look on his face.
"Edward? I can't see you what with all my papers in the way..." Roy explained, and yes in fact his desk was full of papers needed to be signed.
"WHO'RE YOU CALLING A BEAN!" Ed shouted.
"Calm down Edward...jeez" Roy sat up and yawned he was too tired to have a verbal abuse fight with Ed.
"Colonel Mustang sir, here are more papers needed to be signed..." Lt. Hawkeye came in carrying a stack of papers.
"Auughhh! DAMNIT!" Roy held his arms in the air in frustration. Also pushing the papers out of the way causing them to fly everywhere.
Ed snickered and Roy glared at him.
"Your next assignment is to investigate a series of sexual harassments by a gang of idiots downtown..." Roy muttered.
"A series of sexual harassments? Can't the police handle something like this?" Ed yawned.
"Hey...At least it's not a series of rapes...I know you couldn't possibly handle a case like that..." Roy smirked. Ed stuck up his middle finger.
"Anyways...I hear they use alchemy to trap young girls and then they 'play around' with them...not rape...just other stuff...like when a guy..."
"OK!OK! I get it!" Ed said his face flustered.
"Well pint-sized alchemist...good luck..." Roy said waving as Ed cursed at Roy under his breath, too frustrated and annoyed to yell back a comment.

The day when Ed has to go investigate matters of the series of sexual harassment...
"Nii-san! Why do I have to stay here!" Al asked angrily.
"uhhh...you're too young..." Ed said patting Al's shoulder.
"I'm only a year younger than you!" Al glared.
"You're too pure hearted..." Ed sniffed fake tears and then left Al puzzled.
Ed and Al had just boarded the train when a voice called out to them
"Heeeeey! Edward! Alphonse!" Hughes came running up to them with a unfamiliar girl running by his side.
"Wendy?"Al questioned looking at the breathless girl.
"Oh my! Why if it isn't the Elric brothers!" 'Wendy' said surprised. in her southern accent of course.
"What the heck are you dong here?" Ed said bluntly.
'Why you ungrateful little...' Winry thought to herself clenching her fingers.
"Oh? I see you've met already...well that saves us some time..." Hughes lied perfectly.
"Well...Wendy here will join you two on your mission..." Hughes placed a hand on Wendy's shoulder.
"What? Why!" Ed stood up from his seat.
"Well...I want to hunt these guys down...my friend was one of the victims..." Wendy said sadly.
"Who cares? We're not taking a LITTLE girl with us!" Ed roared and Al held him back.
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING A LITTLE GIRL, YOU ALCHEMY FREAK?" was what Winry WANTED to say...but instead she started crying...she was a very good actress.
"I-I'm sorry! It was such a stupid idea!" Winry sobbed rubbing her eyes.
"Nii-san!" Al glared at Ed...
"Damnit..." Ed mumbled frustrated running his hand through his golden hair.
'Wow...she's good...' Hughes thought to himself...
"Look...It's not safe for you okay? I don't want you to blame me for getting hurt..." Ed said gently.
Wendy looked up at Ed and smiled..."But you two will be my bodyguards! Colonel Mustang said so!" Wendy handed Ed a note. Ed opened it up.
Pint-sized alchemist who can fit in the grooves of my shoe...
You must bring Wendy with you or you will be sorry...and no, I will not tell you why you have to do it...just obey my superior orders...
Your future fuhrer, Mustang.
Ed ripped up the note and threw it out the window of the train.
"Fine...come on..." He mumbled folding his arms across his chest.
As the train started to move 'Wendy' gave thumbs up plus a wink to Hughes and he mouthed a 'good luck' and held up a thumbs up sign as well...
Ehh I shall stop here for today...And I'll update faster...I promise...well...reviews please!
