Ch.2 A quite life?
FP: Make a mental note that this chapter occurs three weeks after the events of the first chapter.
Kiros has settled down and made a couple of friends in the town.
Kiros: I don't believe I've nearly been here for a month.
Winry: I'm glad you decided to stay.
Kiros: Me too.
Winry: It's amazing how much things have changed since you arrived.
Kiros: It's amazing how much people visit when theirs an alchemist around to do favors for them.
There's a loud knock at the door.
Winry: Speak of the devil.
She walks over and opens the door.
Leon: Those alchemists are back and they seem really worried.
Kiros: What do you mean?
Karrisa: I found him!
Karrisa appeared behind Leon. Coal, Sheena, and Cane quickly arrived.
Kiros: What's going on?
Coal: Someone told the state where we were hiding and from what we gather they know you're here!
Kiros: Shit, how long till they get here.
Cane: They'll be here by morning!
Leon: You're a fugitive?
Kiros: Leon get out of here!
Leon runs back into town.
Sheena: Hurry up and grab some supplies we have to get out of here!
Kiros: Winry pack a quick bag.
Winry: I can't leave.
Kiros: If you stay you'll be arrested for harboring a fugitive and they'll torture you until you tell them where we are.
Sheena: She'll just slow us down!
Kiros: And if we get into a fight you'll be completely useless, should we leave you behind to be arrested!
Sheena: Fine…
Winry was already packing a bag for both herself and Kiros.
Kiros: I'll grab my supplies.
Winry: I already packed them!
Winry throws a duffle bag at Kiros.
Kiros catches it and grabs his trench coat.
Kiros: Let's go!
The six quickly headed for the nearby woods.
Sheena: Where are we supposed to go?
Kiros: Are best bet is to head west toward the desert.
Winry: We can't stay here long they'll finish searching the town in no time.
Sheena: You think we have a chance of making it to the desert?
Kiros: If we can't make it we'll head south towards the ocean, hop on a boat and find ourselves a nice tropical island.
Karrisa: I think we should head south before we try for the desert.
Kiros: Why?
Karrisa: I don't like the desert.
Winry: I agree.
Sheena: Me three.
Coal: Looks like we're headed south.
They exit the woods heading south only to find a small battalion waiting for them guns raised.
Karrisa: Shut up Kiros.
Kiros: You had to go south, didn't you?
Karrisa: I said shut up.
General Grey stepped out from behind the soldiers.
General Grey: So you were alive.
Kiros: Sorry to disappoint you.
General Grey: Not at all, I was hoping to be there for your death.
Kiros: Karrisa protect Sheena and Winry, we'll take care of these clowns.
Karrisa: Why do you always get the fun jobs?
The soldiers open fire, but Karrisa transmuted the ground into a solid wall of stone stopping the bullets.
Kiros, Cane, and Coal leap over the barrier prepared for combat. The soldiers open fire again this time it was blocked by Cane's attack he used the transmutation circles on his black leather gloves to unleash a shockwave of super heated air, realizing that their guns were useless the soldiers drew their swords and charged the three alchemists.
Kiros: My turn!
Kiros reached into his trench coat and pulled out a small bag, he opened the bag and threw a silver powder at the approaching soldiers. He then used the transmutation circle engraved into his automail arm to transmute the powder into thousands of tiny silver spears that impaled the soldiers leaving thousands of small holes leading to almost instant death staining the grass red with blood.
General Grey: Please don't hurt me!
Kiros: Sorry, but you know that we're alive so you can't be left alive.
Karrisa lowers the wall just in time to see Kiros Shove an iron spike through the Generals forehead.
Winry: Oh my god.
Sheena: Don't worry, you get used to it.
Winry: So many people, how can you get used to something like this?
Kiros is transmuting the spears he had used back into powder and putting it back into the bag he had retrieved it from.
Cane: That's a new trick!
Kiros: I used steel shavings ground into a fine powder to create the spears.
Winry: Are they all dead?
Kiros: Yes, their dead.
Winry: How can you do this?
Kiros: It's either kill or be killed and I prefer to die of old age, not a public execution.
Karrisa: Maybe you're right the desert would be a lot safer.
Coal: I didn't even get to do any fighting.
Kiros: Now the state is going to be after us for sure.
Cane: Yeah, when Grey doesn't report back they'll know something's wrong.
Sheena: I hate the desert.
Coal: It's probably our best bet though…
