"What idiots… who would want to get in the way when my Roy-toy and I are happily in love?" All eyes turned to see Betty the ladybug sitting in Teyya's hand.
"Sorry to say but you little train ride needs to end." Teyya smirked. Everyone took a step back when Teyya drew out a gun.
"EVERYONE DUCK!" Skaii cried right before Teyya fired. The room was engulfed with pink. It was so horrible that Armstrong couldn't even flex his overly buff muscles. Betty glared at Teyya and then hit her in the back of her head. The pink went back inside the gun when Teyya tried to flick Betty away; instead she was bit by the annoying ladybug.
"What are you doing?"
"Don't you dare hurt my Roy-toy!"
"Shut up! I have to!"
"Do not."
"Too do!"
"You mean 'Do too', right?"
"No, I meant 'now let me kill them'!"
While they were fighting the little group sneaked out the door.
Skaii was in the lead with Al at her left and Ed at her right, Hughes floated happily next to Roy and Armstrong skipped behind them all with Darrie and Alf on his shoulders.
"Where are we going?" Ed asked hastily just after Skaii opened another car door. Skaii looked over her shoulder as she ran, jumping over a skateboarding piranha, and said happily,
"Ha ha, well to tell you the gloomy truth," She stopped and jumped onto a bronze ladder at the end of the car and started climbing it. The group of boys and Alf watched as she grabbed a wire and tugged the hidden door open. She climbed in and motioned for them to follow, saying awkwardly, "I'm not completely sure." Ed fell off the ladder and onto Darrie, who had just gotten to the floor.
"Anoooo" Darrie whined as Ed slumped back onto his feet with Al's help.
"Git a go'n!" Alf chattered while looking over her shoulder. The door at the other end of the car opened and, quite evilly, Betty walked in.
"Oh my Roy-toy, there you be!" She started scurrying; very fast for a ladybug, towards them. Roy freaked out and climbed over Ed and Hughes. Skaii took out her reddish-brown box and waited. The next person was Hughes. She smiled and asked,
"Want a free camera?"
"You bet!"
"Okay then, put your whole body into this box."
"Is this a contest?"
"Uh, well-"
"Here Ed!" He grabbed the shorty who was making sure Darrie got on the ladder with out falling. Hughes declared quickly, "I shall verse you, Ed, in the 'get in the box before the other guy does' contest!" Ed glared at Skaii with a sweet drop on the side of his head.
"Did you-"
"Nope, not this time." Skaii said casually. Alf climbed up and sat next to a shivering Roy. Armstrong was half way through by the time Hughes stopped bragging about how he'd use the camera. "Okay, okay. Go." Skaii ordered. Hughes grabbed Ed by the braid and jumped in the small reddish-brown box. Now Ed and Hughes were gone.
"What? Edward Elric and Maes Hughes, I and my muscles shall save thee!" Armstrong dove into the box as well.
"This thing is getting heavy…" Skaii complained her face a bit angry. Roy looked at Skaii with wide eyes.
"Take me too!" He cried and jumped at the box. He would of got in if Al hadn't shoved his way through the small opening and blocked his way, thus giving Roy a concussion.
"Al, I wanted to do that…" Skaii complained. Al said sorry as he shut the hidden door so Betty couldn't get in. Suddenly Al realized that Ed was gone.
"Where's brother?" Alf and Darrie pointed to the box.
"Hughes pulled Ed in with him." Skaii replied defensively. Al grabbed Skaii, shook her back and forth, yelling at her to bring Ed back.
"Hee hee, can't catch me!" A fork and spoon giggled as a cat chased them with a fiddle. The four remaining stared blankly at the activity. The utensils opened the hidden door and jumped. The cat jumped as well after bowing to the confused spectators.
"Heh, you really believed you… could get rid of me?" Betty wheezed as she flattered onto the wooded floor.
"Well, to tell you the truth I did." Skaii said in a matter of fact tone.
"Me too." Alf said while readjusting her bonnet.
"Ano, ano ano." Darrie laughed as he blushed and scratched the back of his head.
"Sure, why not? I did think we could get away." Al sighed. Betty gaped at them. The ladybug sat there… in shock.
"Good job guys! Let's go." Skaii grinned and walked down the darkening passage. Al shrugged and walked away from the ladybug while holding Alf and Darrie's hands.
They walked up a stairway or two, Al vaguely wondering how tall the train was, they knocked down a couple of door, jumped over a burning pit of death (all riding on top of Al), wrestled down a crying gooses, that was saying something about her children, and asked for directions. And it all happened in a minute or two before Skaii stopped them.
"Ano?" Darrie asked slowly. Skaii nodded, dropped the gooses, and took off her backpack, unzipped it, and started digging. Al watched as she leaned farther and farther in.
"Skaii, what the…" Al helplessly goggled as Skaii stuck herself, all the way from her waist up, into her unmoving backpack.
"She be look'n fer de key." Alf explained gazing up at Al's flustered armor face.
"But how is she doing that?" Al questioned the ashen child. Alf looked over at Darrie. They nodded at each other. Alf grabbed Al's giant hand with both of hers and looked up pleadingly.
"Imagination." Alf replied sadly. Al looked from Skaii feet that were sticking out of her bag, and back to the children.
"You mean like with alchemy." He wondered aloud. Darrie shook his head
"A…no. No." He said trying hard to figure out how to say more, but couldn't.
"Darrie no 'alk no mer cause he was a use'n imagination." Alf said in a low voice while looking down at her dirty feet. "Pa and ma wa' take'n cause I… be sinning." Alf choked back tears. Al was mystified at these words. He was about to ask more when Skaii started to come out of the backpack. She was wearing orange goggles with the breathing thingy, a blue swimsuit, and her dark Chinese shoes. She was dripping wet with what looked like mustard. She snapped and she was in a clean outfit. She looked as though she was going to go thieving.
"I found the key! It was right in the mustard eating mailbox!" Skaii laughed as though she had done it a million times. Alf wiped her tears away and helped Skaii to the brick door. Skaii stuck the key in and turned it, unlocking the door, and then took it back out.
"Ye be want'n to back yer up." Alf said gleefully as she ran to hide behind Al with Darrie.
"Oh, before we do that here Al." Skaii tossed a letter at Al. It read,
Pink Ish the Spawn of SatanDear Ed and Al,
You're so short, an ant could step on you and you wouldn't get squished because you'd fit between the grooves of his tennis shoes. Do you care that I named a red Teddy bear after you::Hugs Edo Bear:
:Gives Alphonse some Basic I (industrial strength cleaner, it works great): There!
:Gives Ed a purple shirt and purple pants to replace the bean outfit: Do you like purple? Because I love purple. Purple purple purple.
:Gives Alphonse a giant meat tenderizer (like a mallet but with spikes): Bonk Skaii and Ed on the head with this when they get to stupid, okay?
Your Otaku,
Kristi-chan-no-baka and Edo-no-tedi-bea-chan
"You're going to hit me with what?" Skaii asked a bit frightened. Suddenly a purple bottle appeared in Al's right hand and in his left a giant meat tenderizer.
"Yay! Hold on… where were you guy all that time ago?" Al started talking to his gifts.
"I need to save this for Edward…" Skaii chuckled wickedly. She ended up coughing and snapping herself some water.
"Hey Skaii,"
"What?" Before Skaii knew it a painful meat tenderizer was squishing her. Al lifted it up off her with ease.
"There, I got that out of my system now." He laughed as though it was nothing. "Say, what about Ed?"
"He'll get his stuff when he reads the letter…" Skaii said, once she was up and sitting on her butt, Al sighed and looked at the door.
"Are we going?" Skaii shook her head.
"Not yet Al." With that she handed him another letter.
Dear Alphonse,
Since Edward rejects every girl who likes him, would you like to be my Boyfriend? You're so sensitive. Just what a girl wants!
Ellen Tee
"AAAAH!" Al dropped the letter. He placed both hands over his metal face.
"Al…? What's wrong with you?" Skaii asked worriedly. Al gazed at the ceiling. There was a moment of silence before he cried out,
"YES, YES I WILL BE YOUR BOYFRIEND!" Skaii, Darrie, and Alf watched as Al danced for joy.
Sorry I didn't update in forever. I was debating whether or not I should rewrite, continue, or take it all down. I suppose you're all happy.
Ed: NOPE.
Al: Not really.
Skaii: Eh, so so.
Me: Ungrateful little…
Ed: You want to fight?
Me: Bring it on!
YAY! Happy dance day! Whooohooo!YAY!
