Chapter Six

When the two woke the next morning they were wrapped in each others arms. Neither of them wanted to get up. They had made love all last night and well into the morning before going to bed.

"You know we're going to have to get up eventually", Lust said to Scar.

"But I don't want to", Scar said nuzzling Lust's neck.

"Stop it", Lust said trying not to moan.

Scar ignored her and started to plant kisses on her neck and Lust couldn't hold back the moans that followed. Scar moved his hands to Lusts most sensitive area.

"Wasn't last night enough for you?", Lust said has Scar inserted a finger into her.

"It was. I'm just enjoying tormenting you".

"Oh trust me you're not tormenting me", Lust thought to herself has Scar inserted a second finger into her. Lust arched her back in pleasure has Scar moved his fingers in and out of her.

After the two were done 'playing', they checked out of the hotel. The first place they went to was the hospital. That was the first logical place to look for Fullmetal, considering his injuries from last night. When they got to the hospital the first thing that they noticed wrong was the blonde haired soldier standing in front of the building lighting a cigarette. Lust had seen him before, his name was Havoc or something like that.

"I can't go in there", Scar said, "not with the soldiers there".

"Wait here, I'll be right back", Lust said pecking him on the lips.

Lust walked into the hospital and went straight to the receptionist.

"Hello, may I help you?", the receptionist asked Lust.

"What room is Edward Elric in?", Lust asked.

"Are you a relative?", the receptionist asked eyeing Lust.

"Yes, we're cousins", Lust lied.

"Ok, he's in room 527 on the third floor", the receptionist said.

Once Lust was on the third floor she saw a nurse going into the bathroom and she suddenly had an idea. Lust walked into the bathroom just as the nurse started to wash her hands.

"Excuse me", Lust said to the nurse, "can I borrow your clothes?".

"Hell no", the nurse replied drying her hands.

"Then I'll have to take them from you", Lust said stabbing the nurse through the head.

Lust quickly stripped the nurse of her clothes and put them on herself. Lust pulled her hair back into a ponytail and checked her reflection in the mirror. After hiding the body in a bathroom stall and picked up the clipboard she had dropped. Lust walked out of the bathroom and noticed the soldier standing outside of Ed's room.

"I just need to do a few things", Lust said imitating the young nurse.

"Go right in", the soldier said.

Has Lust walked into the room she could barely make out the words, 'damn that nurse has a nice ass'. Lust ignored the comment and walked into the room. Ed was lying in a hospital bed yelling at Mustang for calling him short.

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING A LITTLE RUNT WHO'S SMALLER THAN AN ANT!", Ed yelled angrily.

"You'll never get better if you're always angry", Lust said making her presence known.

"Do I know you from somewhere?", Ed asked eyeing Lust in her nurses uniform.

"I don't believe we've ever met", Lust said walking towards him.

--- --- ---

Scar waited impatiently for Lust to get back. How long could it possibly take? All she had to do was go in and stab him. "Then why does it seem like somethings not right?", Scar thought to himself. Suddenly glass was heard shattering followed by a chair falling out of a third story window. Scar ran into the hospital and charged up the stairs. Once on the third floor, Scar saw an open door and heard most of the noise coming from there.

Scar burst into the room to see Mustang trying to protect Ed from Lust. Or at least who Scar thought was Lust. She was wearing a nurses uniform and had her hair pulled back. Scar grabbed Lust and yanked her back just has Mustang fired a jet of fire at her.

"I thought you two would be together", Ed said from his hospital bed. "So I set you up".

"You won't be able to make it out of here alive Scar. We have the place completely surrounded", Mustang said.

Scar felt the barrel of a gun being pressed to the back of his head, and slowly turned around to see a young soldier behind him. Scar felt Lust squeeze his hand and looked towards the window. Then in a movement so fast that Scar barley had time to move out of the way, Lust had amputated the young soldiers arm. The sound of Mustang snapping his fingers was heard followed by a jet of flame going straight for Scar. Lust stood in front of Scar letting the flames hit her and Scar lunged at Mustang tackling him to the floor.

Lust ran towards the window and grabbed Scars hand and jumped out the window. The two landed in front of a military barricade.

"Put your hands in the air or we will shoot you!", a soldier yelled over a megaphone.

Lust jumped to a rooftop taking Scar with her. The two jumped from rooftop to rooftop evading the military.

"I think we lost them", Scar said after they were out of Central.

"Where do we go now?", Lust said to him.

"I don't know", Scar said holding Lust to him, "I don't know".

They just stayed like that for awhile. Scar holding Lust in his arms not wanting to let go. Again, Lust felt something like emotion but didn't care. She wanted to be human so badly, not so she could die, but so she could love the man who now held her.

"Ishbal", Lust said suddenly.

"What?", Scar asked her.

"That little town full of Ishbalan refugees, we can hide there", Lust said looking up at him. "Besides", Lust continued, "I want to learn more about my past".

--- --- ---

When they got to the town they went to the temple. They were greeted by the same Priest and he offered them the same rooms they had stayed in the last time they were here.

"What was she like?", Lust asked Scar has they walked through the streets.

"Everyone loved her", Scar answered.

Lust had changed back into her dress at some point. They had decided to walk around a bit. Lust clung to Scars arm has they walked. Lust looked around at all the people, at the children running and playing. She had once been one of these people, and had died during the Ishbal war.

Has they walked they passed a house with a young girl of about 18 sitting in front of it watching two little boys playing. When she saw Lust her eyes widened suddenly.

"Selena?", the girl said gasping.

"You say something?", Lust asked Scar.

"No", he replied, "why?".

"I just thought I heard somebody say my name. I mean, my human name", Lust answered.

"It's getting late", Scar said, "we should be getting back now".

They turned around and Lust came face to face with herself. Or at least, a younger version of herself.

"Selena…", the girl said, "I thought you were dead".

Lust didn't know what to say. She had assumed that if she had had any family in her past life that they had all died during the Ishbal war. Luckily for her, Scar stepped in.

"Natasha, last time I saw you, you were a little girl", Scar said to her.

Natasha turned to Scar and squinted her eyes, trying to remember him.

"Matthias?", she asked him.

"It's been awhile hasn't it", Scar said to her.

"I haven't seen you or your brother since Ishbal", Natasha said. "And who is this?", she said motioning to Lust.

"It's a long story", Scar said to her.

"Would you like to come for dinner?", Natasha asked eagerly.

"Sure", Scar replied.

Natasha turned to the two little boys and scooped them up in her arms. She then turned back to Scar and Lust.

"Well are you coming?", she asked them.

"Are they yours", Scar asked motioning to the kids.

"Nephews", Natasha replied leading them into the house.

"Could we have a minute alone?", Lust said.

Lust quickly turned to Scar, the expression on her face a mix of anger and surprise.

"Who the hell are these people, and why'd you say we'd stay over for dinner?", she asked.

"Well for one, what was I supposed to say? And secondly", Scar paused before continuing. "She was Selena's sister. She was a child when she died".

"That's why she looks like me", Lust thought to herself. Now she was more nervous about having dinner here. She'd be with people that had known her in her past life. And boy was it going to be hard to explain why someone who was supposed to be dead was walking around.

"It's ok", Scar said putting his arms around her, "I'll be with you".

Has soon as they stepped into the house Scar was greeted by an elderly old woman. Lust took a breath when she saw the older woman. She looked like her, except older, and wrinkled with time.

"Matthias, I remember you when you were a young boy. I remember you followed my Selena around everywhere", the old woman said.

"Where'd your friend go?", Natasha asked Scar and Lust tensed. She knew what was coming next.

"I'm right here", Lust said getting it over with.

--- --- ---

They took it better than Lust and Scar had expected. They were shocked to say the least. The fact that a woman who had died years ago was now standing in their home would shock anybody. In the end, Lust and Scar wound up having to explain everything to them.

"…and that's basically how we met", Scar finished. He had told them everything. How his brother had tried to resurrect Selena and how he had gotten Lust instead. About the homunculus and how she had no soul, everything. There was a long, uncomfortable silence before anybody spoke.

"I can't take it anymore!", Natasha yelled getting up and running out of the room.

"Natasha wait", the old woman, whose name was Helen, called to the girl.

"I'll talk to her", Lust said getting up from the table.

Before anybody could say anything Lust had walked out of the room and had walked up the stairs to Natasha's room. Lust didn't know why she was doing this. Natasha had been someone important in her past life, but she couldn't remember. Nervously, Lust opened the door. Natasha was sitting in a chair, staring out the window.

"Natasha I—", Lust began but she cut her off.

"I know. You came in here to comfort me. That might be hard considering you don't have a soul", Natasha said bitterly.

Lust didn't say anything. She expected a cruel remark like that to come.

"I'm sorry", Natasha said, her tone different. "It's just that, you, I mean Selena, was my older sister. We were inseparable, and I was crushed when she died. And then I saw you and I thought I was crazy at first". She turned around and Lust saw her face streaked with tears, "but I guess I'm not".

Natasha broke down into tears and Lust found herself hugging the younger girl. The girl that had been her sister, her baby sister. She would've been at least six or so when Selena had died. Suddenly Lust had another flashback…

"Selena why do you keep giving Matthias looks like that?", Natasha asked her older sister.

"Like what?", Selena asked.

"Like your in love with him", the little girl answered.

They were alone in the house while their parents were out for the day. Matthias had 'dropped by' and said hello to Selena. Though Natasha thought there was more to it than that.

"Why would I be in love with Matthias, I'm married to Alexander remember?", Selena replied.

"Because you love him", Natasha said. "I can see it when you look at him".

"Natasha, I want you to promise me that you won't tell anybody about this".

And then the memory ended. And Lust found herself back in the present, holding her crying sister in her arms. "No", Lust thought to herself, "I am not her sister, I'm just an image of what was supposed to be". But no matter how much Lust tried to remind herself of that, she couldn't help but feel connected to the people in this house. Natasha, Helen the woman who had been her mother, and then there was Scar. Every time he was near her, or he kissed her or made love to her, Lust felt different inside. Like she wasn't an empty vessel, now she wanted to be human more than ever.
