Chapter 11
Of The Past
Winry's POV
"Her... her past?" questioned Al.
I nodded, "Yeah. Her past."
Everyone looked hesitant. And I could tell why. They were probably wondering if it was right for me to do so. If I should just be telling one of my best friends secrets like that. Wouldn't it be wrong?
But I had thought it over, and I came to the conclusion, that Kaname wouldn't be with that monster if he hadn't blackmailed her or something. I know her better than that. She wouldn't up and leave just like that without a good reason. Especially with him!
'Besides, she told me that she trusted me, and my judgment. And if she trusts my judgment that much, than she'll know that I told them for the better. Right?'
"But," I looked over at Al, "wouldn't that be like... um, an ivasion of... of her privacy?"
I could feel that he was nervous, "Not in this case," I said, "This might be able to help us. I want to find her. And get her away from that jerk!"
They all looked at me, "Winry, what has that man have to do with Kaname?" my grandmother asked concerned.
I sighed, "The only way for me to explain this, is if I tell you her story..."
I looked at them; grandma, Al... Ed. My gaze lingered on him for a moment. He was totally transformed. From the once brave, determined boy I knew, to this beaten, and heartbroken child. It was hard on all of us, but I think it affected him the most.
I sighed again, "This, is where it all begins...
"Kaname comes from... a different... world." everyone gasped, except Ed. He just looked on. I'm guessing Kana had already told him.
I continued, after Al and granny's initial shock, "She was born and raised in a country called America. She told me that where she came from, was isolated. Her home was supposedly unknown to the rest of the world. Her and the rest of her people lived in peace. No worries about war, murders, vandalizing, robbery or any other wrong things. She said it was heaven on Earth.
"She and her family were happy. She lived with her mother Hotarue, father Nobu, older sister Hikari, and younger brother Matsuo. They lived their lives, and hardly ever went into other civilizations. They only left for important supplies, that they couln't get in their 'wilderness'. But other than that they never left. And nothing ever went wrong." I frowned and tears started to well up in my eyes, "But... every good thing must come to an end...
"When Kaname was 6, she, her sister, and her brother, were out playing in the woods, waiting to go to their family friend's dinner party. About fifteen minutes before they had to be ready, they saw alot of smoke comming from the village. Kaname and Matsuo hid, while Hikari went to see what was happening. After a while, Kaname got fed up of waiting, told Matsuo to stay hidden, and ran off to the village.
"When she got there, what she saw horrified her... Her entire village was slaughtered, blood was everywhere, and some houses were set on fire. But none of that mattered to her. All that she cared about was her family..." tears started to stream down my face, and granny came to sit by me.
"Please Winry," she said, still shocked, "You know you don-"
"No!" I said, "I-I... I need to continue. You have to know."
I dried my face off and began again, "She-she ran to her house, hoping that what had happened to everyone else, didn't happen to her family.
"When she got there, she was devistated to see that her parents were already... gone." I wiped at my face again, "She heard her sister calling her. But she was fatally wounded. She had been shot. But before Hikari could tell her to go, she poited out something behind her, then she... left too." I swatted at my eyes, hoping no more tears would come, "When Kaname turned around, she was terrified. Because there was her brother... dead. Murdered in the most violent way possible. But what was worse was that he was being held by the very man who killed her village off." I looked at Ed, "The same man you met today, probably. That Yukio person." I narrowed my eyes at his name. Just saying it wanted to make me hit something!
"But she said, that before Yukio could take her, she was saved by a myterious man. She told me he looked exactly like Yukio too. She said she has a faint idea about who he was, but she never told me who."
Everyone looked astonished, especially Ed, "You mean... she went with the bastard who killed her family? What was she thinking!" he cried angrily. But I'm guessing that it was probably at Yukio not Kana.
I sighed once again, "He probably treatened her. Saying he would kill us if she didn't go with him."
Normal POV
"Poor Kaname..." Al said shaking his head.
Pinako nodded, "If only there was something we could do."
Suddenly something clicked inside Ed's head, (A/N: Tee hee! It rymed! lol! coughs sorry. Back 2 tha story!) something Kaname had told him earlier.
"And... although you don't know it... you're kind of in my past too."
"Wait a minute." he said, snapping everyone out of their questioning.
Al looked at him, "What is it brother?"
Ed had a thoughtful look on his face, "It was something she told me before... She said 'you're kind of in my past too'." he glanced at Winry, "Do you know what she meant?"
Thinking, Winry replied, "Well, she told me, after she got away from her 'living nightmere', she went out into the world. She said that when she was about 13 or 14, she saw an add on a poster, for 'Fullmetal Alchemsit'. A 'DVD', she called it."
Everyone had bug eyes, "W-what!" Al managed to squeak out.
"Well," Winry began, "She said that a DVD plays on a... television, which is just like a radio, but it shows images to go along with the audio portion. A television can show different programs, such as... fiction, drama, comedy, and so on." she said relaying what Kaname had told her her, "Now the 'Fullmetal Alchemist' thing. She said that it is like a program that shows the lives and adventures of Edward and Alphose Elric." she looked at Ed and Al and pointed, "You two."
"W-what!" Al cried, looking back and forth between Winry, and his MILDLY surprised brother, "How is that possible!"
'I expected as much. After what she told me.' thought Ed sadly.
Winry shrugged, "I don't know. But it sure explained how she knew so much about you guys."
"I'm going to Central." announced Ed, standing up.
"WHAT!" cried Winry and Al, "WHY?"
Ed pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed deeply, "I'm going to get permission to look for Kaname."
"B-but..." Al stammered, then stood up also, "I'm comming too."
Ed's head snapped to Al, "No you're not! It's too dangerous!"
Al shook his head, "No brother. I AM comming. You're not the only one who wants to find Kaname, you know."
Ed looked surprised, "But-"
"Listen brother," Al spoke firmly. Something that Al used only in important and meaningful situations, "I may not have known her as well as you did, but she was a friend no less. And I'm worried about her. Please brother," he pleaded,"let me come."
Ed smiled, for the first time in hours. His brother had a big heart. One that could easily destroy him, and Al knew that, but he wouldn't change it no matter the cost.
"Fine," Ed caved and Al perked up, "You can come, but I want you two," he pointed at Winry and Pinako, "to stay here."
"WHAT?" Winry yelled, "WHY I OUGHTA--!"
Pinako smiled slightly and nodded, "Don't worry. Even though we want to help look for her, we know that we would only get in the way. We'll stay here, just in case she comes back, or if word comes. We'll be waiting for you two to call if you find anything." she took a drag from her pipe, "Won't you?" she asked sternly.
"Yeah," Ed gave a curt nod, "Don't worry we will."
The two brothers walked to their room and quickly packed the few belongings they had brought with them. They then proceeded to the entrance hall, where Ed pulled his coat on and slipped on his boots. He grabbed his suitcase as both he and Al turned to their friends.
"Well," Al sighed, "Good-bye."
Winry and Pinako nodded their heads, "Good-bye Al, Ed." Winry whispered as she hugged the bigger of the two.
"Good luck." added Pinako, hugging Al after Winry had moved to Ed's side.
The girl embraced him, "Good luck, Ed. Be careful and..." she paused, "bring her back."
Ed smiled ever so lightly, hugging his long-time friend back, "Don't worry." he said, "I plan on it."
After saying their last farewells, the pair of alchemists opened the door and walked away, in hopes of finding any information on the whereabouts of Kaname.
"Are you ready for this, Al?" questioned Ed.
Al merely nodded, "Yes, brother. I'm sure of it."
Elsewhere, Far From The Rockbell Household
"Are you ready to begin your training?" asked a voice from the darkness.
Another answered it, "Yes, I am."
The first voice spoke again, "You do realise that this training is very dangerous. That the powers you hold, could very well kill you if not used properly. Do you not?"
Hazel eyes shone brightly in the shadows, 'Ed... I'm sorry.'
"I do... Master."
