Chapter 7
A dream, I think I had one there on the train. It had that guy from before, the one that Youji said he never saw. He had the same clothes from before, but his eyes were glowing a deep green color, and his hair was now black. It looked as if he was saying something, only I couldn't hear the words. That's around the time Youji woke me.
" You better?"
" I'll live Michaels."
He just gave a small grin as we left the train. Unsurprisingly the local MP's swamped the station to take care of the remaining followers of the Western Peoples Liberation Association. We were greeted with salutes and what not. Rather annoying in my opinion. We checked in as 'brother and sister' in the hotel and got a room. I still couldn't shake the strange feeling I got from the change of attitude from Youji. At first he was more then happy to be my 'husband'. Then all of a sudden, he rather be my brother. I not complaining, I was just confused.
" Youji? May I ask you something?"
" I hate to tell ya, but you just did Hun."
He's lucky that we weren't on the second floor, Because I had the unusual urge to throw him out a window. Currently he was laying on one of the beds, hanging upside down over the edge facing me.
" What is with you sudden attitude change? Your not as much of an ass-hole any more."
" I'll take that as a compliment."
He laughed slightly, with a smirk (albeit upside down) that even Mustang could be proud of. Thinking about that now scares me a little.
" Just think of it as my down time. I'm just not too….me, right now."
" So then who are you?"
" Oh ho! A joke, there's hope for you yet Terra."
His smile never reached his eyes this time. When your taught to read people, you always knows what triggers there change in emotions. But with Youji, I couldn't place it. I didn't know if it pissed me off, or confused me. Either way, I would know.
" Seriously, what the hell happened?"
" It's nothing."
Youji turned to leave, maybe hoping to stop the conversation, but I wasn't going to give. Not that easily.
" Is it the mission? Is that what eating you?"
He stopped. Wow, and on the first try too. He turned, eyes hidden by that shaggy hair of his. A grim expression to say the least. I didn't like that he had hidden something from me, especially since it was about the mission.
" She's involved. I rather do this myself."
" Whoa…who are you talking about. What do you mean by your self? Youji your not making any sense."
" My sister, it concerns her."
