Dying To Please

Riza was making spaghetti for everyone. They sat down at the table, in the dinning room. "Okay. I don't like the stupid new names they take to long to remember. I think we should just stick with are real names." Roy said. "Same." Riza said. "I think we should too." Kain agreed. "But we have to call each other by the first name not the last name." Jean said. "Okay, Riza call Falman and Breda. Make sure they know." Roy said. Riza got up and called them. They liked using there really names too. "Okay tomorrow are you two going to your section to look over?" Roy asked. Riza turned on the TV. To see if anything was on the news. There was, Another woman had been killed. "Okay me and Roy will take this one." Riza said getting up.

Roy was already done with his food. They grabbed there watches out of their bags. And walked out. The moving company had left them a car. Roy had bought it. Riza got in the driver seat, Roy was in the passenger seat. "Roy comb your hair back so you look different." Riza said taking a comb out of her bag and gave it to him. He brushed his hair back. He hated that look but what ever. Riza got her hair pin out and put her hair up and she drove down the street. It wasn't that far to get where it was it had happened in an ally. Not a good place for a woman to walk. She parked the car. They got out and walked down the street. Hopefully the police hadn't touched anything yet.

But knowing the news it happened yesterday. They walked in the ally where it had happened. All that was left was a blood stain. "That's great we can't even tell what the coss of death was." Riza said. "Oh, I have an idea." Roy said. "A first for everything." Riza said under her breath. "We could go to the one place. That has the dead bodies and people figure out how they died." Roy said. "Good job Roy. Hurry up." Riza said. They got back in the car and drove to the thing. (A/N I can't think of what it's called.) They pulled up and Riza parked the car. Walking up the steps they made there way in. "Hello how can I help you?" the lady at the desk asked. "You could help me in 3 ways." Roy said with a smile. "Your married." Riza said grabbing his ear.

"The woman that was killed we need to see her body." Riza said. "Um.. Only police are allowed to see the bodies." she said. Riza and Roy took out there pocket watches. "Um right this way." she said standing up and letting them go in the back. "Here she is." the girl said opening the thing she was in. The woman was pail. Riza looked at her chest where a bullet hole was. Roy and Riza studded the hole. They both gasped. "The person is using Alchemy." Roy said. "And it's the same Alchemy I use." Riza said. They looked up. "I didn't know you used Alchemy." Roy said. "Look see the skin around the hole its been burned. It's a type of Alchemy that I use. You make the bullet on fire and it burns the thing or person." Riza said.

I think I know who might be doing this Riza thought. "Thank you." Riza told the girl. Roy and Riza got back in the car and drove back to the house. It was quite they whole ride home. Except the radio, Roy insisted that they keep on. Havoc was asleep when they got home. Kain was washing the dishes. "Did you find anything out?" Kain asked. "Yeah. He uses Alchemy." Riza said putting her purse down. Black Hayate was fast asleep on the bed up stairs. It was 8. Riza climbed up the stairs, and walked to the bathroom. She turned on the bath water. It felt so good on her skin. Sinking down in the water, she scrubbed her hair to get all the dirt out.

She got out and changed. She remembered something. She had told Clara that their names where Eric and Sarah. "I hope she forgot." Riza said drying her hair. She put her blue pajamas on and walked out of the bathroom. It was a really nice house. She walked down stairs to see Jean and Roy watching some show. Riza jumped over the couch and landed in between them. "What are you watching?" Riza asked. "Family guy." they both said not moving there eyes from the TV. Kain was in the kitchen cleaning.

Once the show was over, they all sat down to talk. "Okay, tomorrow Jean and Kain you need to tell the police that the problem solvers are doing the investigations on the killings." Roy said. (A/N if you didn't know problems solvers is another name for State Alchemist). "Me and Roy will go and talk to the family see if anyone wanted her dead, or if it was a random killing." Riza said. "That's not fair. I wanted to go see if there are any good looking girls here." Roy said. "Roy your supposed to be married!" all three yelled at him. "I don't know how to act married." Roy said. "Wait! Roy tomorrow we have to go to Clara's welcoming party." Riza said.

"That will be fun." Roy said. "Jean, Kain. You should try and find a apartment to live in tomorrow so we can take more ground." Riza said. "Alright." Jean said. "Okay. I'm going to take a shower." Roy said getting up. "I'm going to take a shower to." Jean said getting up and opening the glass door to get to the other house. (A/N that is a really house. It's one of my X boyfriends house) "What about me." Kain cried. "There is another bathroom." Riza said pointing to the door down the hall. "Thanks." Kain said, going to get his cloths from his room. This left Riza to her own thoughts. Black Hayate came out from under the couch and jumped up onto her lap.

Riza turned on the TV. There was nothing on, no good movies. I could call Gracia or maybe I could even call my mom Riza thought. She picked up the phone and called someone. "Hey mom." Riza said. "Oh Riza, how have you been?" she asked. "I've been fine. Guess where I am." Riza said with a smile. "Where?" she asked you could hear the smile in her voice. "I'm at the west where you adopted me." Riza said. She didn't have much memories of when she was little, only of her real dad. "Well baby I got a call on the other line." she said. "Love ya mom." Riza said hanging up the phone. It was kinda funny how she had come to be in the military. She had been adopted, and one of her cousins happened to be Gracia. Gracia's parents had died and she was living with them. Riza's older sister was Sapphire.

They ended up moving to a place called 'Winter Garden' that's where she met Roy and Maes. Riza picked up the phone and called Gracia. "Hello?" It was Elysia. "Hey Elysia it's auntie Riza is your mommy home?" Riza asked sweetly. "Yes. One moment." she said. You could here her running through the halls to find her mom. After a minute Gracia came on the phone. "Hey girl." Gracia said with a smile. "Hey." Riza said. "Where are you I called your house but no one picked up." Gracia said. "I'm out in the west, for a mission for King Bradley." Riza said.

"Is Roy with you Maes has been worried about him." Gracia asked. "Yeah everyone is with us." Riza said. "Maes wants to talk to him." Gracia said. You could hear Maes in the back ground asking for the phone. "Hold on let me go see if he's out of the shower." Riza said. She got up and put the phone on the holder. Riza walked up to the room and knocked on the door. Roy opened the door her was in red pajamas, his hair still wet. "Maes is on the phone for you." Riza said. They walked down the stairs and sat on the couch. Riza flipped through some channels still nothing. Roy and Maes where yelling at each other. Well it was mostly Roy who was yelling.

Roy hung up the phone with a loud clang. "Sir, don't kill the phone." Riza said still trying to find something to watch. "I'm going to bed." Riza said turning the TV off. She picked Black Hayate up and walked to the stairs. They both walked up the stairs and crawled into the bed. Hayate laid in between them. Every time Roy moved a little. Hayate would bite him. "Why the hell is your dog biting me!" Roy yelled. "He thinks that your trying to hurt me or he just doesn't like you." Riza said. She picked Hayate up and placed him on the other side of her. Roy moved closer to her, "Sir, what are you doing?" Riza asked when she felt his arms go around her waist. "I'm not used to sleeping alone, And I'm freezing." Roy said.

"You know Riza your hair smells nice." Roy said he buried his head in her hair. Riza smiled she was cold to. Riza opened her eyes. She felt something warm. She looked over at her side. It was Roy! He wasn't breathing. Riza jumped up only for pain to hit her in the stomach it hurt to move. "My dear Riza. It's been so long since I've seen you." a voice said. It was a males. She turned around to come face to face with the man known as her father. "You know you would have made such lovely grandchildren with him." the man said grabbing Riza's gun from her side. "He tried to protect you tell the end" he said

"You became a State dog. Now both of you are dying to please." he said shooting her. "Roy I'm sorry." Riza whispered falling to the ground. Riza jolted up. Roy woke up. "What is it?" he asked. Riza was sitting up, she put her hand over her mouth. She couldn't breath. Tears where falling from her eyes. "Riza what's wrong?" Roy asked. She turned to him and hugged him. Roy was surprised. Her wrapped his arms around her. "What's wrong?" Roy asked. Riza hiccuped a couple times. Roy laid back down with Riza still crying in his arms. "Roy." she chocked. "Yes." Roy asked. He looked her in the eyes. "Promise me, promise me that you won't die." Riza said.

Roy was surprised by the thought. "I promise, if you do the same thing." Roy said. Riza smiled weakly and hugged him. "Riza to tell you the truth, I've been having this dream where you are dead and I turn around and a man says 'dying to please' and kills me." Roy said. "I had a dream like that to but you where dead. I think I know who's killing people." Riza said. Roy looked at her surprised. "Who?" he asked. "I think it might be my real dad." Riza said. "Riza, let's not think about it right now. Let's just go to sleep." Roy said. Riza laid her head on his chest. Roy kissed her forehead and fell asleep.

The next morning was hell. Roy wouldn't get up. Jean had the shits from eating the train food. Kain had to pee but the bathroom smelt gross. The hot water wasn't working. By the time it was 11. Jean was done. Kain pissed out side. Roy was up, Riza had pored ice cold water on him. And the yell woke everyone on the street up. It was Friday. Jean and Kain got all their stuff and went out to find an apartment. Falman and Breda was already gone looking around for the killer, or out eating. Riza and Roy where trying to get dressed. They ran out of the house.

The neighbors watched them push each other to get to the car first. "Bring it old man you can't top my speed." Riza yelled back at Roy. "You little bitch." Roy yelled tackling her to the ground. "I'm driving." he said with a smile. "My ass or should I say your balls." Riza said kicking him right in the nuts. "AHHHHHH!" Roy yelled falling to the ground. "Who's the little bitch now." Riza yelled. After a minute of everyone watching them Riza helped him up. They got in the car and drove off. "That was embarrassing." Riza said. "Why where they staring at us. That's how Gracia and Maes act." Roy said.

Riza shrugged her shoulders. How where married people supposed to act. They pulled up the house where the woman's family lived. They got out and walked up to the door. Roy knocked on the door. A old woman answered the door. She looked like she had been crying. "Hello, I'm Elizabeth Hawkeye. We need to speak to you about your daughters death." Riza said. "Yes, please come in." the woman said. Riza and Roy walked into the house. There was a man and a young child in the living room. "Are you going to find out who killed my wife?" the man asked standing up. "We're going to try." Riza said.

"I hope you don't mind if we ask you a couple questions." Riza said. "No not at all." the man said. "Was there anyone that may have wanted your wife dead?" Riza asked pulling out a small note book from her purse. "No, not that I know of." the man said. "Well, maybe we should have called Maes, after all." Riza said. "Great job Riza." Roy said. "I didn't see you getting out of bed this morning." Riza said. "If you don't mind me asking are you really police?" the man asked. "We're State Alchemists." Riza said. They both took out their pocket watches. The cell phone that Roy had got yesterday rang. (A/N I know they didn't have them back them but it's my story so oh well). "yeah." Roy said picking up the phone. "Alright we'll be right there." Roy said. "We have to go. There's been another killing." Roy said.

"Sorry we have to go." Riza said. "Where is it?" Riza asked as they got in the car. "It was just a mile away. Now the killer is ether going left to Breda and Falman or right to us. Kain and Jean are already investigating the body." Roy said looking at her. She looked worried. Her hands where white from gripping the steering wheel. Roy grabbed one of her hands. She looked over at him. "It's okay." Roy said. Riza smiled. Roy called Falman. "Have you found him?" Roy asked. "There isn't anyone, it's like he disappeared." Falman said. He was on speaker phone. Roy sighed hangup. "I know how he leaves." Riza said. "How?" Roy asked.

"It's a type of Alchemy. He hasn't left. He's still there trying to find a new victim. He'll take a shape of another person." Riza said. "I'm positive. It has to be my father." Riza said. It was 4 when Riza and Roy made it home. Kain and Jean had found a apartment. The only problem was that there was only one bed. Riza took the upstairs bathroom and Roy took the down stairs. Black Hayate was glad when someone got home. Riza changed into a nice plain red dress. It came down to her anckles and had small straps. She wore her hair down and wore red high heels. Roy wore a pair of black pants and a red shirt, with a black jacket. He wore black shoes. He put an gold ring on. Riza put a gold ring on with a ruby on it. "I can't believe we have to act like where married." the both said.

They walked over to the next house. Riza knocked on the door. "Hello, it's nice to see you again,..." Clara stopped. Riza laughed. "Riza and Roy." she said. "Of course how silly of me to forget." Clara said. They walked down the hall. The house wasn't as big as Roy and Riza's but it was a nice size. There where two living rooms, instead of one. There where only a couple people there so far. "This is your other neighbors Danielle and Logan and there daughter Catherine." Clara said. Danielle was skinny she had on a black dress that looked good. She had blonde hair that came down to her mid back and had brown eyes. Logan was kinda fat, he had on a blue shirt and brown pants. Catherine was about 12 she had black hair that was wavy and had brown eyes. She was wearing a green dress.

"Nice to meet you." Danielle said with a smile shaking both of there hands. "You want a smoke?" Logan asked Roy. "Uh... you kinda scare me." Roy said. "Roy!" Riza yelled. Logan laughed. They started with some light talk nothing big. "Are any other people coming?" Riza asked. "No, the other people are so mean." Clara said. "Oh." Riza said. Roy's cell rang. Riza grabbed the phone. "Hello." she said. It was Kain. "Kain what's wrong?" Riza asked. Kain sounded like he was crying. Riza looked pissed. "Roy." Riza said. "What?" he asked. "Will you go pick Kain up from his apartment." Riza said more then asked. "Why?" Roy asked. "Jean got strippers Kain's hiding in the bathroom." Riza whispered in his ear.

"If you take more them 30 minutes your in big trouble." Riza said. Roy sighed. "I'll be right back." he said and left. "What's wrong?" Clara asked. "My brother-in-law is having trouble with his room mate." Riza said. Roy knocked on the door to the apartment. No one answered. You could hear laughing in the apartment. Roy kicked the door open. Jean was on the bed with at least 5 women. "Look who made it Roy." Jean said. He was drunk. "Jean I would stay with you and get some ass but I'm in deep shit if I'm not back in like 10 minutes." Roy said knocking on the bathroom door. "Kain it's Roy come on Riza told me to come and get you." Roy said.

The bathroom door opened and Kain hugged Roy. "I thought one of the stripers was going to get me." Kain cried. "Yeah what ever, hurry up." Roy said. Kain grabbed his bag from the bathroom and ran out side with Roy. Roy shut the door behind him. The ride home was quite. Roy pulled up to Clara's house. Roy didn't even knock on the door he ran into the house and got on his knees. "I'm so sorry I didn't mean to be late. Please don't tell—." something hit him. He wasn't late for work and begging for forgiveness. "Forget I said that." Roy said. "Look I brought Kain back, and he didn't cry once." Roy said

Everything was quite. Kain was crying to Riza that he was scared. Kain was so scared of women we except for Riza. Everything was quite tell Kain stopped crying and Roy sat down. The girls where talking we'll the boy just kind stayed quite. "So Riza are you and Roy hoping for children?" Clara asked. Riza didn't know what to say. She could say no but then they would ask why. "Yes, me and Riza want to have a baby girl." Roy said wrapping his are around her waist.

"Yes." Riza said with a smile. 'Doesn't that hand feel good there?' 'Don't get a boner Roy' damn it will you guys leave me alone 'I'm sorry you where the one that just said you wanted a little girl' 'oh did I just see you thinking about Riza moaning' 'under you just like all the other women' that's not true it's not like other women I love her 'yes' 'we got him to admit it' YOU GUYS ARE GOING TO HELL. Roy could hear the voices laughing at him. "Ug... will you shut up!" Roy yelled at him self. "..." everyone started at him. "I forgot something, at home, my cookies are burning." Roy said running out of the house. "..." everything was quite.

"I'll be right back. Got to make sure he doesn't hurt him self." Riza said walking out. Riza walked into the house. Roy was running around. "Damn it get out of my head." he said banging his head on the wall. "Roy." Riza said grabbing his hand and pulling him away from the wall. "What wrong." Riza said. "I keep hearing voices their mean. I can hear them laughing at me." Roy cried. "..." Riza was a little scared. "Okay I think you had way to much to drink." Riza said. Roy looked at her. "I must have drank to much." he said to him self. "Come on Roy I'll help you to bed." Riza said helping him up the stairs.

'Go on you told us you' 'love her why not tell her' because she doesn't love me. She's to good for me anyway. Riza helped Roy stripped down to his boxers. She found him some pajamas to change. Helping him get into his pajamas. She helped him into the bed. "Do you have a head ache?" Riza asked. "No." Roy said. "That's good." Riza said, she put her hand on his head to see if he had a fever. Roy grabbed her hand. "Roy?" Riza asked not knowing what was going on. Roy pulled him into her. Kissing her sweetly. He pulled away. 'Is now' 'or never' "Riza I love you." Roy said, there was no hesitation in what he said.

Riza was taken aback. "Roy." Riza was surprised. "Riza, I've loved you since we where kids. I was just so suborned to realize it." Roy said. "Roy. I don't know. I'm your subordinate we could get in trouble. You would be braking the rules." Riza said. "It wouldn't be the first time." Roy said with a smile. Riza hesitated, "I-I-I have to go get Kain." she said walking to the bedroom door. "I'll be right back." she said. Why is he telling me this, I'm his subordinate he's way to good for me and he would never love me like I love him 'oh really you know' 'you've loved him since you where kids' 'and he loves you to, just tell him how you' 'feel' if only it was that easy Riza thought to her self as she walked to Clara's house.

Riza walked in. "I'm sorry Roy isn't feeling well. Kain come on." Riza said. Kain and Riza left. "Riza is something wrong you don't look good." Kain said worried. "It— It's nothing Kain." Riza said opening the door to the house. "You know Riza sometimes it's good to tell people things." Kain said opening the glass door. 'Its only fear that makes you run' 'the feelings that your hiding from'. Riza put her purse down and walked up the stairs. Roy was outside standing on the balcony. "Roy?" Riza asked walking closer to him. "Riza do you remember when we were younger and I told you that I loved you?" Roy asked. Riza walked up to him. "Yes I remember." Riza said. "I hope you know I meant what I said." Roy said staring out into space.

"I had a feeling, but I didn't know my answer then." Riza said looking at him. "What do you mean?" Roy asked turning and looking at her. "I meant that I can answer that question now." she said. "Oh really and what do you say or are you going to fake fainting or run away?" Roy asked. Riza hugged him. "I'd have to say I love you with all my heart." Riza said. Roy smiled hugging her.
