How To Spy on the Elrics
Chapter 3: Arriving there
Winry wasn't at all pleased. She had been patiently sitting on the train with the brothers for half an hour already and it had been complete utter silence! With an occasional grunt or cough here and there from the two. Winry was getting fidgety, and she wasn't at all happy when she got fidgety. To keep her busy she looked out the windows at the passing blur of trees. She then glanced at Edward, who had drifted off to dream land, she rolled her eyes, she was the bored one...She then shifted her gaze to Alphonse, he seemed to be occupied in a book he had brought along, Winry smiled. Alphonse was always the mature one out of the three when they were kids, he always was the reasonable one when it came to Ed's crazy ideas. Winry then went through her belongings and pulled out a small plain blue-colored journal. Winry hid a smirk. Of course she would keep track of the things the Elrics did. She opened it to the first page and turned towards the window, making sure Al or Ed couldn't see what she was writing. When she was satisfied and well aware that they wouldn't be able to read from behind her she started to write down a couple of things.
'Day one, July 16th ' she titled her journal entry and drew a little chibi face of herself. She smiled at it and began to write some more...
-sigh- Ed and Al haven't talked to me since the train ride started, and that was about
(Winry stopped to check her watch.)
forty minutes ago. Of course if I were actually me right now they probably would say something...but since I'm not then i guess it's just how it is...it's so like Ed to not talk to a girl he doesn't know well.
(Winry grinned to herself, there's no point in hiding her identity in the journal since she was sure Al and Ed would NEVER dare to look in a stranger's bedroom, well, maybe Ed but Winry would make sure ot bring the journal with her at all times.)
Hmmmm...well hopefully I'll get to achieve my goals into finding out the answers to my question!
(Winry thought hesitantly about putting too much detail in it, But what if Edward oh so got his hands on it and the journal magically opened? Edward would know who it was right away...she shrugged it off and began to write again.)
Nothing has been going on...I wonder how Grandma Pinako's doing? Hmmmm...well anyways... guess I'm stuck here with nothing to do for an hour...-sigh- I'm starting to sigh a lot nowadays...-sigh-, well, I'll update later when I come across any interesting things!
(Winry closed her journal and placed it in her purse)
'I guess it wouldn't hurt to fall asleep...' Winry thought and before she knew it, she was in dreamland.
"Hey! Wake up will ya?" Winry heard a faint voice but turned the other way trying to block it out from her wonderful slumber. It was about 7:30 PM.
"Al! YOU wake her up! I dunno how to wake girls up!" The voice said, but still faintly.
"Brother! What makes you think I know how? And besides, you've woken up Winry before haven't you?" Al shot back.
"Well, If she WAS Winry, I'd still be having a hard time!" Ed sneered.
"A hard time?" Al questioned.
"Yes, a hard time! I'd still be debating whether on I should smack her awake or use alchemy! Very hard decisions..." Ed said.
Al sweatdropped.
The locomotive had just stopped a minute ago and Ed and Al wanted to wake Wendy up but they didn't know how. And the train conductor was getting pissed waiting 'patiently' for the three to get off. His foot tapping getting louder by the second.
"I got it!" Al picked Wendy up and ushered Ed to carry her belongings.
"Wow, Al, you're so manly!" Ed mimicked a girl, batting his eyelashes.
"Well brother, I just thought you wouldn't have the strength to carry her, since you're short and all, she'd be too heavy for you" Al snickered.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Ed said in a death tone.
"nothing..." Al rushed out of the train.
"COME BACK HERE!" Ed rushed after Al carrying the luggage bags.
Ed and Al decided to settle the matter on Al referring to Ed as 'scrawny' later, and so now they were booking rooms for the three. The hotel was a 3 star place, with a lobby and everything. And if Ed and Al were to find these people, as in the people they had to 'teach a lesson', they'd have to stay for awhile wouldn't they? oh, and Wendy was STILL asleep.
"WHAT DO YA MEAN THERE'S ONLY ONE ROOM AVAILABLE!" Ed boomed at the counter clerk.
"I-I'm awfully sorry sir...but the hotel is overbooked..." The clerk hid behind the files he was holding in his hands afraid that the little fellow would kill him.
"BUT WE CAN'T SHARE THE SAME ROOM WITH A GIRL!" Ed pointed to Wendy who was fast still asleep.
"Ed! calm down! we'll take it!" Al interrupted taking the room key.
"B-But!" Ed tried to protest but Al only dragged Ed with him amazingly with Winr...errr Wendy still in his arms.
"Grrrr I think I'm going to have a lovely 'chat' with the colonel when we get back to central..." Ed gritted his teeth while many, many inappropriate words filled his head.
Al sighed as they went to find their room. They looked for their room number and Ed slid the keycard through the card slot.
As they opened the door they gaped at what was in front of them...Al even dropped Wendy causing her to wake up from her slumber.
In front of them was...
was...
...a room painted a reddish pink with a pink fluffy heart-shaped bed in the center, and a regular shaped bed, but pink as well, in the far corner.
"WHAT THE HELL?" Ed yelled his fist in the air.
One thing popped into Ed's mind then...
"DAMN YOU TO HELL FOR ALL ETERNITY MUSTANG!" Ed blew up startling people throughout the floor of the hotel.
Wendy was still half-asleep and was sitting on the floor rubbing her eyes.
Al walked over to a note on the table and opened it.
Dear munchkin,
You're probably wondering if this is the right room...well...it is...and you can't do ANYTHING about it because i am superior than you!
-ahem- as i was saying...you will have to go undercover for this mission...because...
well...
because i say so...
and if you disobey my orders i have military men all over the place watching you to see if you can behave yourself...
you will be posing as a couple living with whoevers (doesn't matter girl or guy) brother.
OR Edward can play the annoying LITTLE cousin since people would mistake him like the little pipsqueak he is...
well whatever floats your boat...
best luck to you...
Soon-to-be-fuhrer,Mustang
After Al finished reading the letter Ed grabbed the note from his metal hands and placed it on the floor.
Al and Wendy looked at Ed quizzically and then Ed clasped his hands together and turned the note to nothingness.
Back in central Roy suddenly felt a sneeze coming but it went away...he rubbed his nose and put the thought aside.
The three teens stared at the two beds...
"well..." Al started first.
"I'M NOT THE BOYFRIEND!" Ed and Al both shouted at once.
"Hey!" Ed glared at Al.
"Al, you're taller so you have to be her boyfriend" Ed smirked.
"But brother, I am but a suit of armor and you are a human, I can play the otaku obsessed kid, it'd be more reasonable" Al replied smoothly.
Ed fumed inside but couldn't help but admit that his kid brother was right.
"You owe me..." Ed muttered and set his things down beside the couch.
But Ed was wrog actually, Al could've been the otaku obsessed BOYFRIEND, but oh well!
"I'll take the couch...the girl can take the...(was it even a bed?) bed" Ed mumbled.
"Wha?" Wendy looked from Al to Ed.
"Al...you explain to her..." Ed sighed and jumped on the couch slouching in it as he closed his eyes to gather his thoughts.
After thirty minutes of explaining to Wendy all three of them decided to call it a night...
X
O
X
Wendy woke up first and once again rubbed her eyes to get a better view of her surroundings.
She saw Ed sleeping on the couch and Al on the other bed.
She suddenly jerked herself up and checked to see if her wig had stayed on, to her luck it did and barely fell out of place. She grinned, it was a good thing too, or she'd be found out.
She got up and walked to the bathroom washing her face.
Thirty minutes later, Ed and Al soon woke up and found Wendy watching tv eating pancakes.
Wendy didn't notice until she heard the yawnings of Ed and turned toward their direction, she smiled politely, "good morning Elric-kuns"
Al nodded and Ed snorted, which pissed Wendy off...
"Did you make all this?" Al asked looking at the sizzled bacon, scrambled eggs and all the breakfast foods.
"Why yes i did" Wendy smiled.
"Duh Al. who else would've made it? a ghost perhaps?" Ed rolled his eyes as he sat down at the table earning a glare from Al.
Suddenly, the front door knocked, Wendy stood up and went to the door...
as she opened it she yelped falling on her butt, causing Ed and Al to rush to her aide.
"What's wrong!" Ed exclaimed startled with Al following behind.
The three gaped at the person in front of them and gulped inward.
It couldn't be!
The sparklies gave it away...
it was none other than...
The strong-arm alchemist himself...
Dun dun dun dunnnn! ok...this was short...I'm sorry...but i updated right? the next chap will be longer! I promise!
Thanks to all of the reviewers! I love you all!
