Sins
Edward and Alphonse Elric's train had come to its final stop for their type of ticket and had let them off at this stop. Kraeyensburg, the broken sign had once said. Ed looked around the town. "Is this what we've sunk to, Al? A low-life's town!" indeed, there was hardly any sign of an actual road structure, just tracks where wagons had passed by. And not a single building was made of any type of stone, not even what seemed to be the federal building.
"Oh come on, Brother, it's not so ba--" started the tall suit of armor, until an entire building collapsed right next to them.
"Hmph." Ed crossed his arms. "You were saying...?"
"Ah...well...uh...it seems to be...okay, it's a low-life's town, but it's all that our train ticket to get us to. We'll have to wait until next week to get a ticket to Darensford." they started to walk through the town.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah...well, I wonder if there's anything to do around he--whoa..." Ed stopped in his tracks.
Standing in front of Ed and Al was a young woman about sixteen years old. She had lightly tanned skin and long black hair. She wore leather gloves that reached all the way up to her shoulders and her hair was pulled into a very long French braid. The woman wore very baggy black pants and a black tank top. This was very unusual, due to the fact that the sun was amazingly hot in this town.
But what amazed Ed most about this woman were her eyes. Her eyes were a pure gold. Not a natural bronze golden, like his own eyes, but purely golden, almost like a cat's eyes.
Al noticed that his brother was spacing out, so he waved his hand in front of Ed's eyes. "Earth to Brother! Hello?"
"Al…" Ed turned the suit of armor's head towards the girl. Al's jaw dropped. "I know…isn't she hot?"
"No, that's not what I'm staring at! Brother, do you realize who that is!"
"One fine—"
"No, the person she's talking to!"
Ed looked at whom the girl was talking to and frowned. "Mustang…? What's he doing here? Come on, Al, let's check it out." Ed walked over to the Colonel.
"Coming!" Al followed close behind him.
