Chapter 11
Amy turned to look at the island before her. "Alright Kira. We'll be here a month. Goals: to find Wrath, avoid Ed and Al…and not die." She made it sound so simple…but the two brothers arrived the very next day.
Both Amy and Kira tried their hardest to avoid the boys. Covering up tracks, never leaving evidence of fires and cleaning up any mess. After the first week, they decided staying in trees was easier than a normal campsite. And the girl had to admit, having a chimera on your side really made things easier. "Still no sign of Wrath. We need to set out and find this brat before another week passes…" Amy said, stabbing another mark into the tree she was keeping count on.
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
In this week's time, Brandon had made it to Dabris, keeping silent of everything he knew now. He thought it'd take awhile to find exactly where Ms. Izumi lived, but luckily found Selene strolling the streets of Dabris with Winry in the afternoon he arrived.
Selene was purely shocked when out of no where a voice called her name and ran up to her. "Selene!" he shouted, grinning and waving. Though it took a few moments, she realized this was her best friend. "Brandon!" she nearly screamed, hugging the boy tightly as if to never let go. Winry stood behind, wondering, 'What the hell?'

"So you found Amy? She's alive?" Brandon asked eagerly, slapping himself for any doubtful thoughts. "Yes. The train we were on got attacked, but we made it out. She sent me to find Ed, and she said she had to go back to Greed..." Selene explained, sighing at the end.
"You make it sound like he's her pimp or some-"
"DON'T TALK THAT WAY ABOUT HER YOU BUTT HEAD!" Selene shouted, whacking Brandon hard over the head. The her angry mood changed back to a worried one almost instantly. "I'm just worried. She'd rather go back to Greed's dump with those chimeras and that...Kimblee! Instead of coming with us."
Brandon stumbled back up, rubbing his head. "Then, why don't we go visit her? A bar called 'Devil's Nest,' is it not?"

Amy sat in a high branch of the tree she and Kira were staying in. Kira was doing random things to the tree and leaves, to make it more comfortable and easier to live in. "Maybe we've been going about this wrong. Wrath likes to watch Ed closely…right? Maybe if we stay around the Elrics, we'll find Wrath."
"That'd be a problem since we have to go un discovered by them." The chimera pointed out. But their brainstorming was interrupted when rustling was heard below.
"Hey Al, over here!"
"Get down!" Kira hissed, knocking Amy back and out of view in case someone looked up. "Brother! It's probably just some of the animals living here!" Al argued. Edward continued to fight through the brush, convinced someone was out there. Thankfully, they passed, Kira keeping watch, swaying her tail back and forth.
The chimera sniffed the air a bit…there were other scents other than the Elrics' in the air. That's when she spotted a young child, wondering around in black clothes, following the Elric's trail. "Amy! There he is!" she said alarmingly. Wrath, had heard something from above, and looked directly up. Kira's piercing yellow eyes were staring back to his dark violet ones.
Amy looked over the edge now, and decided to jump down and try to talk with the kid. Might do some good. Wrath backed up cautiously when Amy approached him, which resulted in backing himself up against a tree. "I'm not going to hurt you." She said kindly, giving a soft smile. The child stopped his shuddering, and looked up at Amy with a frightened face.
"What are you doing here?" she asked, offering a hand to the scared boy. Wrath shook his head many times, tears developing, and then took off running in a blind rage. "Wait!" she shouted after him, but the child disappeared into the brush.
Amy sighed in disappointment, putting her hands on her hips. "Great…" she said in disappointment.
"I told you someone was back here Al!" came a voice behind her. She turned slowly to see none other than Edward standing there, giving her a smirk she could never forget.
