Edward watched the scenery outside the train fly past him. Alphonse wasn't with him on this mission and he was going to somewhere that he didn't believe in. The compartment of the train he was seated in was cozy and made him tired. "hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry huh, pfft what a stupid name." Edward was given the mission to guard the school at all costs. "I think Mustang's trying to kill me." Ed said to himself. The ride was long and a few times people had requested to sit with him and the teacher in the compartment with him, but the teacher waved them off and said that this was a teacher's department. Some of the girls that asked looked at Ed and when he waved at them the ran away giggling.
When Ed reached the school he was escorted to some carriges and taken to the head building where he was given permission to venture around at his own free will. Ed had done when he arrived looking around in every crevice and staring with intrest at all the pictures. When Ed came to two huge wooden doors he pushed them open and was met staring eye's and confused expressions. "Ah the boy has showed his face." Said the man at the front. "Children this is Edward Elric the Fullmetal Alchemist. He is a legend in his world and he is here to help protect the school this year." Edward had to nod at this for this is what he had been assigned to do. As Edward walked up to the head table students looked at him and afew girls giggled. "Edward will you show us some of your alchemy." Ed nodded dumbly as the headmaster handed him a block of metal. Ed raised a skeptical eyebrow at the random block of metal, but didn't question it and placed it on the ground. He clapped his hands and placed them on the metal. Blue electricity surrounded the block of metal and turned it into a metal rose. Ed walked down to a random girl and handed her the flower. "Here." He said simply before turning and taking his place in the seat next to the man he was with on the train.
"Let the feast begin." The Headmaster said and after the words were spoken food appeared on the plates and students dug in.
Ed dug in straight away, but was interrupted by the man next to him tapping him violently on the shoulder.
"Look at all the women starring at you." The man said. "Not even I get that much attention." Ed snorted and continued eating. "Aren't you even going to wave?"
"No" Ed said still chewing on the meat of the chicken infront of him.
"Why not?"
"Because there is no need to I've acknowledged they're there by looking at them that is all the acknowledgement they need." Ed continued chewing.
"You must still acknowledge their beauty." The man said.
"Why don't you if you're that exited about it. Oh wait I forgot you're older than them so doing that would make you a pedophile or even worse would give you a bad reputation." Edward said sarcastically slapping a hand to his cheek.
"Why you..." The man snarled raising his fork. He brought it down upon Ed who merely stuck his right arm up. The clang of metal against metal echoed through the hall and everybody turned to the two. Ed was still stuffing his face, but the man who had thrust a fork into his arm was staring in horror.
"Did you really..." Ed began wiping his mouth satisfied with the amount of food he had consumed. "Think you could hurt me with a fork." Ed said pulling the fork out of his arm. "Fool!" He yelled "Do you have any idea who you're dealing with!" The hall was silent. Ed acknowledged this and turned to the crowd. "I'm sorry children this man was just telling me the attention I was recieving was amazing. To those who looked at me thankyou it's nice to be noticed," Ed looked to his food and smiled sweetly. "Now please let us continue with this lovely feast, to have all this food go to waste would be horrible." Everyone shrugged and turned back to their food. Ed continued eating and was continuously looked at by curious girls.
Edward sat in the room given to him by the school and polished his automail limbs. After he finished the boy oppened his door and decided to go exploring. His hair hung out of its usual plait and hung around his shoulders, he wasn't wearing his jacket and instead he wore just his over top and tank top underneath. As he walked through the halls Edward heard a few of the paintings talking so he decided to join in on the conversation. "Did you hear Lord Voldemort is Back." Said the first painting.
"Who's Lord Voldemort..." As Ed uttered the name his eye's turned pale the colour almost completely draining from them and the pupils entirely gone. He slightly lifted off the ground and his mouth oppened as if he was going to scream, but no sound came out. The photo's watched him in horror.
"Lord Voldemort's death this boy is, when he utter's the name of his other half the subconscious will summon the dark lord hurry tell Dumbledoor." One of the painting's said hurriedly almost yelling at the other painting's. Ed didn't hear that, infact he couldn't hear anything voices rushed through his head, people screaming, yelling at him to stop killing and torturing them. Images flashed and he was blinded from the world outside. "Edward..." He couldn't even hear the cry of his own mother. 'Wait mo-ther' Ed blinked, but the vision still lingered in his mind it was the day he tried to bring his mother back, but it was different, 'where's Al' Ed thought. That voice he had heard was not his mother's, but now he saw the mangled form of his 'Mother' on the floor in his memory, that wasn't his mother that was Al. "See this is what you've done to him this is what he feels like, he feels so out of place. Nobody looks at him like they do you, no girl giggles at him, they instead run and hide. You've made him like this. You must want to die." A voice said.
"No." Ed whispered though no sound came out of his mouth.
"No? You fool he hates you even if he say's he doesn't, even if he say's he's okay, you know he's not, you know he's lying to make you feel better and that make's you want to scream."
"I-I guess."
"See you want to die, if you hand your body over to me I'll put you out of your missery." The voice was pursistent.
A hand appeared in Ed's mind. "Take the hand and I'll make you leave that body to find a new life." But before Ed could take the hand (Which he wouldn't anyway, but it make's the story more interesting) he fell into unconsciousness.
A:N/ Don't worry almost everything will be explained next chappie. But know I'll explain the voice that Ed thinks is his mother's. It's actually Dumbledoors. I'll explain more about the voldemorts death thing next chapter. Also I was thinking of having Envy in the net chapter. I love the EnvyxEd pairing so I need permission to do it or the story will go way out of control and considering I'm so obsessed I'll probably do the pairing anyway, that's what I get for being all squiggly in the head. Anyway see ya next time.
