"Wipe that smug little smirk off your face before I come over there and do it for you, yeah you'll be sorry then won't you and I'll make you say it!" Ed yelled at Amanda, they were always fighting like this.

"I'm sorry." Amanda said cooly.

"Shut up! You're a real wise ass you know that." Ed continued to yell.

"At least I'm not the nosy idiot who's causing a scene in front of the train station!" Amanda started to yell.

"You done it now tom-boy we're taking this outside!" Ed held up his fist.

"We're already outside you girly-boy!" Amanda folded her arms.

Al and Amy walked outside with luggage in their hands.

"Are you two ready to go yet?" Al asked watching them fight.

"What took you so long?" Ed asked sounding annoyed.

"What have I done!" Amy said throwing luggage up in the air, but Al caught it. "I'm so sorry! We kept you waiting, you must have been so bored!" Amy went crazy and she started to run around. "I'm so sorry!"

"Amy, it's okay." Amanda said trying to calm her down, but failed. "Amy!" Amanda hit her over the head with her fist.

Amy went back to fantasy world and calmed down. They continued to walk down the street.

"Is she in fantasy world?" Al asked to be safe.

"Yeah. It appears so." Ed said poking Amy. "We're good to go."

Amanda threw Ed some of luggage and he caught them.

"Hold them." Amanda said smiling.

"Why do I have to hold them you tom-boy?" Ed asked getting angry.

"Shut up you girly boy and carry the luggage." Amanda said helping Amy get off the ground.

They continued walking down the streets of Central. Ed and Amanda were still fighting, Amy was walking next to Al and Amy was still out there in fantasy world.

"What's in here!" Ed yelled struggling.

"Alchemy books for the exams, remember that we are staying with you until the exams." Amanda said smiling. "I always wanted to become a state alchemist, but I don't think that I'll pass." Amanda looked down then looked at Amy. "I think Amy will pass the exams."

Ed and Al looked at Amanda then Amy.

"Amy? Who gave you the idea that Amy could pass an exam?" Ed asked looking at Amy.

"Even though she acts stupid doesn't mean she is stupid." Amanda punched Ed.

"I'm sorry Ed!" Amy yelled. "If I wasn't smart you wouldn't have gotten hurt!" Amy started running around and Amanda hit her on her head.

"We need to find you some help." Amanda smiled at Amy.

"We're here." Al said opening the door and walking in.

Everyone walked in the house. Ed and Al dropped the luggage. They rested on the couch until Amanda jumped on Ed and Al was sent flying into Amy.

"Amy are you okay?" Al asked getting off of her.

"Never better." Amy said smiling and getting up, but then when she got up she fell over again.

"Idiot." Ed said trying to get Amanda off of him. "Stupid tom-boy!"

"Damn girly boy!" Amanda yelled back.

"When are the Exams?" Ed asked.

"Next week." Amy said getting up.

"Next week!" Ed yelled. "This sucks!"

"I'm going to sleep." Amy sad walking into a random room.

"Me too." Amanda said walking into another random room. "Don't wake me up."

Ed and Al looked at each other then looked at the last bed room.

"I guess we need to share a room." Ed and Al said in unison walking into the room.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

day after day Amanda and Ed continued to fight. Amy studied most of the time and Al helped her.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the morning a week later...

Amanda was reading in the living room, Al was reading the paper, Ed was sleeping, and Amy just walked into the living room.

"Amy, your awake." Al said looking at her.

Amy nodded and rubbed her eyes.

"Now Ed is the only one still sleeping." Al said pouring himself a glass of orange juice.

"We can't just wake him up, he might get pissed." Amanda said putting down her book.

"Huh? Then I'll go wake him." Amy said walking toward the kitchen. "I had this dream..." before walking into the kitchen she looked at them. "...I've always wanted to wake someone up with a frying pan."

Amanda and Al went back to reading. Then Amy continued walking into the kitchen and took something out of the cupboard. Then she started walking out of the kitchen and toward Ed's room. Amanda took a glance at Amy and looked back at her book.

Amy opened Ed's door and a light filled the room. When the light hit Ed's face he woke up and looked towards the light, he saw a figure with something in it's hand.

"Oh, it's you." Ed said looking at her.

Then a shinier light gleamed in his face and he noticed a knife in Amy's hand. Ed freaked out and his eyes widened. Amy got closer and closer with a big smile on her face.

"Wh-What?" Ed asked sounding scared.

"Oh, your awake." Amy said looking at him. "I screwed up." she turned around and walked out of the door.

Ed watched her leave with fear on his face.

"A-Amy! Why are you holding a knife!" Al yelled sounding scared and Ed continued to watch Amy.

"Huh? I thought I was holding a frying pan." Amy said still sounding sleepy. "I wonder where it went."

"A-Amy, Don't wave that at me!" Al yelled still sounding scared.

"What are you talking about?" Amy said still half-asleep.

"Don't wave it in my direction!" Al yelled.

"The knife..." Ed started. "...is flying..." Ed said still watching them.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the kitchen...

Amanda was cooking breakfast. The smell of eggs and bacon filled the room.

"Will you three shut up and come eat breakfast!" Amanda yelled.

At the sound of Amanda voice everyone ran to the kitchen and smelled bacon. Everyone sat at the table and ate. Then Ed stole Amanda's bacon and ran off. Amanda ran after him yelling "my bacon!" over and over again. Amy and Al just ate, later they watched Ed and Amanda fight over bacon.

"Do you two want to be late for the exams?" Al asked.
