Part 2- Revenge
1 week after the 'party incident'
After hours of thinking, Ed still hadn't come up with a plan that was evil enough. He had some that were too evil, but that would probably get him kicked out of the military. Finally he gave up and asked Al for help. Al thought for a moment and came up with a few pranks that were time tested and guarenteed to make Mustang mad. Ed loved them all and couldnt pick just one, so he decided to combine them into one giant day from hell. "This should teach him to mess with me" Ed said with a crazy look in his eyes.
The next morning, Mustang's house.
It was like any other morning for Roy. He got out of bed, downed his coffee, skipped breakfast as usual, and got ready to head out the door. He was in a morning daze, so it took him a while to notice how dark it was. Confused, he went to his bedroom window and found that the outsides had been spraypainted black. He quickly went outside to find that all the windows were black and the word BASTARD was written in giant letters on his house. "Dammit, I just had my house painted last week!" the irate colonal exclaimed. After a quick call to some people who owed him favors, he set off on his way to Central. "I know exactly who did this and I am going to wring his little neck when I find him."
Meanwhile, on the roof of Central Headquarters...
"Here he comes, get ready" said Ed, who couldnt stop giggling. If Al had a face, it would look concerned. "are you sure we should be doing this, you could get in a lot of trouble." Ed tried his best to look serious when he said "he is going to get what he deserves. Plus, you are the one who thought this up." Al still didnt think it was a good idea, but he still helped to put everything into position. "Three, Two, One, Fire!" Ed yelled as he triggered the catapult, sending about fifteen water baloons in Mustang's direction. Ed's face turned from a look of joy to one of pure terror as Riza Hawkeye stepped in front of Mustang to talk to him. All the baloons landed on target, soaking both Mustang and Hawkeye. Ed turned to Al and said "we should probably get out of here now." Ed and Al quickly went downstairs and tried vainly to find a backdoor exit. Suddenly, a pissed off Hawkeye and a mildly amused Mustang came bursting in and made a beeline for the Elric brothers. Mustang was smiling because he knew their plan had backfired big time. "Just what the hell were you thinking!" Hawkeye yelled. Al turned to Ed, then looked at Riza and said "It was all Ed's fault, I had nothing to do with it." Al ran away while Ed stared dumbfounded at the space where his brother used to be. "Is this true?" she said in a calm voice that was scarier than her yelling. "Yeah, I didnt mean to hit you, I was just trying to get him back for those photos." Ed explained. "Okay, I accept your explanation, but you still hit us with water baloons." Riza told him. "since you both seem to be responsible for this happening, you both need to be taught a lesson."
Now I wont go into graphic detail, but it was a very long day for the two alchemists, and it ended with them both hanging upside down from a very tall flagpole. The morale of the story, Just let it go, its not worth it.
