Chapter 3
The Prophecy
"Whew! That was a close call." Ed muttered. He had just escaped Winry's grasp and got outside. She had been teasing him that he had a crush on Kaname. Truth be told; not even Ed knew if he did or didn't. He thought she was beautiful, but was it just that? Ed hadn't even known her for twenty minutes, and he already 'liked' her. But was it lust or love? Sure he liked her body and looks, but he didn't even get to see her personality. What was she really like?
Ed had blindly wandered into town, he was so caught up in his thoughts that he hadn't even realized where he was going. He got bord just walking around, so he decided to sit down on a bench and just reflect on the things that had recently happend... The discovery that he and Al had made, no less than a week ago... The prophecy...
"I have no idea what all that junk meant, but... I have a feeling that it has something to do with Kaname... and I feel that I have to... help and... protect her..." Ed sighed and leaned his head back while sticking his arms over the back of the bench. "What does this all mean?"
Flashback
"Brother! Come here!" Al yelled over to Ed.
They were currently in the ruins of an ancient and legendary city called 'Vexous'. Vexous was legenday because of very curious incidents, that used to occur there.
It was said that Vexous was also known as the 'City Of The Gods' or the 'City Of Prophet'. It was called these because when Vexous was still living and full of life, that the Gods favored this town above all others. It was said that one night during a yearly festival they held, a miracle happened. A great and terrible light flashed in the skies. It was a pale green with golden swirled into it. It struck a giant boulder, like lightning, and left a prophecy. It said that within days there would be a great fire that would strike feircely upon their village. Many took no heed of the warning and disregarded it, but many also believed in the words and took shelter in the mountains. And a fire did strike as the prophecy had said. The Vexians, rebuilt their great city and continued to live a peaceful life. More prophecies came and went, but mostly during times of need or when something of great importance would occur.
Ed and Al's situation, was one of those times. Possibly a time where the balance of the world hung. If the prophecy was not fulfilled the consequeces would be dire.
"What is it Al?" Ed asked running up to his 'little' brother.
"Look at this." he said indicating to a stone tablet that was placed on a pedastel, which was under a crumbling arc.
Ed took a look at the tablet and gasped at the text written upon it.
"Al? Did you write this down?" Ed asked the suit of armor.
"On it." he replied
Ed nodded and looked back at the text, "What does it mean?"
End Of Flashback
Ed dug his hand into his pocket and fished out a folded piece of paper. He carefully unfolded it and read what was written on it, for, what seemed like the hundreth time.
'Eyes of grass and hair of dirt
bring powers unknown
From another world
but knowledge of the Yochi
Will find true love
but has already found sadness and hurt
Upon their soulders
rests the fate of the Yochi
A life sacrificed
to save the Yochi's hero.
But when victory is held
happiness will not be found
For one once loved
is lost'
It was the prophecy Al and him had found. It made hardly any sense to him; especially since the rest of it was gone. When they had been in Vexous, the stone tablet had been slightly eroded, so the last few verses were lost. But, Ed knew that Yochi was 'Green Planet' in japanese. He knew that, but it was the last lines that peeved him the most.
Ed sighed and refolded the scrap paper and stuffed it once again into the depths of his pocket, only to be taken out again later on.
He got up and strod further into town. Stopping to look into a shop's window every so often. And would sometimes say hi to some old friends or aquaintences.
Ed had been walking for maybe, fifteen minutes, when he suddenly heard a scream.
"HEEEELLLLPPPP!" the voice was definitly feminin and it kinda sounded like...
"KANAME!"
