The group headed out of the forest. They looked down the slope at the town, which was still heavily burning.
"It won't be safe to go through there; we should go past it and check the town over." Mr. Elric said, pointing far off past the town.
"But Mr. Elric, what if there are survivors?" Kailani questioned, looking down at the town and thinking about her parents.
"It can't be helped. If we go in there we will die. That town is going to burn down." He replied solemnly. Ed nodded and tears skid down Raeka's face.
"Let's get going; that means there's around five miles we need to walk to the next town." Mr. Elric claimed.
The group started walking. By the time they walked around the village it was already getting dark. There was to be no rest tonight. Unfortunately, there was no forest to rest in this time. This time, there were miles of flowering fields, along side roads. Surely there was to be enemies patrolling the roads, so they would need to crawl in the fields to the next town.
Hours went by.
Everyone was traveling in a certain order, Mr. Elric in front, Raeka and Al after that, and Ed and Kailani following them close behind.
"I'm so tired. Any idea of when we'll rest?" Kailani whispered to Ed, who was next to her.
"No idea, we might be crawling for days." He whispered back with a look of concern in her direction.
"Don't look at me like that! I'll be fine!" Kailani reassured with a sleepy smile.
"Ouch!" Raeka exclaimed, pricking her finger on a rose thorn. Al put a hand over her mouth.
"Shh!" He said.
"I know I need to be quite!" she hissed, pushing his hand off. Al watched in awe as she crawled speedily ahead. He looked at Kailani for answers. She shrugged and said,
"She's just tired and moody."
They kept crawling until Mr. Elric suddenly stopped. Ed hit his head on Raeka's boot.
"Ah! Why are we stopping?" Ed hissed aggravated.
"Shush, listen!" Kailani hissed back.
They heard the sound of screams and shouts coming from the road.
"Mercy! We don't want to be part of your war!"
"Please, spare us! We are Christians, please!"
"I need to protect my children! Please! We beg of you!"
Screams.
Blood.
Flames.
Blood curdling screams were heard and a blast of flames was seen from the flowers. Raeka gasped and Kailani fell onto her stomach.
"Why do the flowers make everything so peaceful, when everything is so… not?" Kailani inquired the group in hushed words that sounded of the wind.
"Where is God? Where has he been? What did the world possibly do to deserve such a… slow death?" Raeka whispered, rolling on to her back to look at the stars.
"Get up. Let's move." Mr. Elric started moving again, and the boys helped the overly tired and thinking girls up.
Now they were able to stand up because they were by a small river. It flowed into the next town so they knew they could follow it and be safe from enemy computers. (Remember, computers can't find things near water)
"What is that?" Al exclaimed looking ahead at a huge fountain.
"It's so… pretty…" Kailani wistfully added, stumbling over to it.
"Don't! It could be a trap!" Ed shouted grabbing her elbow.
"Let go!" Kailani shrieked, running toward the fountain.
"Kailani don't!" Ed hollered after her worriedly, running to catch up.
"Come on, we've got to go get them." Raeka yelled behind her to Al and Mr. Elric. She ran after them too. Mr. Elric and Al sighed and exchanged looks then were off.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
Trisha was sitting on the edge of the fountain when suddenly a girl with fiery red hair and bright eyes came into view. (When you actually got in 12feet of the fountain, fog was all you could see around you and the fountain.)
"What are you doing here?" Trisha questioned shocked.
"I, I… don't remember."
"Oh no…" Trisha said. "We need to get you out of here!"
"Oh, but it's so nice…"
"Kailani!" Came a voice. "Kailani! Where are you?" then out of the fog came Edward Elric. Trisha gasped and Ed's eyes widened.
"Mom?"
"Oh, it's so nice here!" Kailani said, wondering around the fountain. "Who are you?" she asked Ed.
"We need to leave, or you'll lose your memories. Come on!" Trisha said, trying desperately to push them out into the fog.
"No, I want to stay! It's so nice here…" Kailani fainted.
"Brother!" Al bellowed, appearing out of the fog.
"Edward!" in came Mr. Elric. "Trisha?"
"Get out of here!" Trisha shouted, and she pushed with all her might. Kailani started to evaporate in Ed's arms.
"Kailani!" Ed screamed, starting to evaporate too. Then there was a blinding light.
Soon the whole atmosphere changed. They were back in the flowering fields, and they could now see the town in the distance. There was only one thing out of place…
"… Mom?"

(Headquarters of the Christians)
"Sir! There have been sightings of a group of fugitives near the Town of Time, should I send a group after them?"
"No, let's have fun watching them run."
"But sir, Mr. Elric is among them with his family."
"Good."
"Sir?"
"It's Ma'am, you idiotic lieutenant. Someone please, I want this one," she declared to the room pointing at the shivering man in front of her, "dead."
"Mother?"
"Yes Envy?"
"Does this disguise look good?"
Standing in front of the cursed woman seemed to be Edward Elric, though he was a little taller.
"Yes, that will work."

"Let's move! Come on!" Cornel Mustang screamed, gesturing to his men. "Riza, where is your gun?"
"No time to explain. Move Cornel!" she replied pushing him out of the way of a bomb shell. "Run!"
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
Maes Hughes sat lazily at a desk.
"This is soooooo boring! Secretaries have no fun… I just sit here all day."
"Here is your cappuccino sir." Said a polite voice.
"Why thank you, Gracia."

Oh! Surprised? I thought so. If you have any suggestions for scenes between Riza and Mustang, let me know. I need some help with them. Send it in a message, not a review. But please review!
