Ch. 9

The train pulled into Central. Ed got off and walked towards Central HQ. It was maybe around 9 or 10:00 A.M. He walked in the station and to the dorm he and Al were assigned. "I might go back eventually but for now I think I need to be alone", for now.

" So you don't know where Ed is Al?" asked Winry. " I don't remember him leaving at all and if he did he might have just gone for a walk." " Why do you guys say that all the time? Ed nearly killed himself last night when he had ' gone for a walk.' So I think it's about time you tell me what happened to you guys." " I guess you do have a right to know," said Al giving in.

" We finally had a lead for the Philosopher's Stone and the man wanted to see us that night. The man told us to meet him at a certain address and when we got there it seemed to be an old abandoned warehouse. Neither me or brother felt right about the place. He was...telling Ed he liked his work." " What work?" " Me. The man kept telling my brother how he was probably glad that mom died or else he wouldn't be a great alchemist. Brother hated him for saying that because it wasn't true and he demanded to know how that man knew so much about us." " And?" " The man said it was pointless to tell us because we would be dead anyways so Ed told him to get out of the darkness and that if he did he might have a chance at killing us. The man, who turned out to be older than we thought, had came out of the dark he kicked of my head and he started choking Ed." " He was choking Ed and he knocked off your head?" she asked with some tears escaping the corner of her eyes. " Yeah... I don't remeber much of the rest except for when I was able to get the man of Ed. The man fell on the ground and suddenly disappered."

" Brother!" Al kicked the man off of Ed and they both fell to the ground. Al kneeled down," Brother are you alright?" " Yeah," he coughed," i'm fine but hurry don't let that guy run aw-- Where'd he go?" " I don't know but maybe we should go." " Yeah you're right. This is actually the first time i didn't damage my auto-- What happened to my arm! It looks warped!" " Maybe we have to go see Winry afterall?" " Yeah I guess so but I want some shuteye first."

I'm really sorry for taking so long to update but i couldn't think of anything. but i finally decided on this. thanks for your patience
