train ride


"Brother, you never did tell me what happened on the phone." Al stated as he and Ed whached the senery go by.

"Al when I called a voice I didn't reconise was on the phone and they said the Auntie and Winry were closed." Ed said as he slowched down in his seat.

"But brother...they don't close. Do they?" Al asked as Ed continued to glare out the window and awnsered,"No Al, Auntie told me that they don't close because if you need a repair, no matter what they most surely will help."

"Then what's going on?" Al asked as Ed turned to him, stared him right in the eye and said,"Thats what we're going to find out."

The rest of the ride was silent after that.

Arriving at Winry's house


Ed and Al walked into the door just to hear a slam and that stange voice say, "Winry, will you please unlock that door?"

"Brother...is that who you were talking about?" Al asked as they climbed the stairs just to find a woman, thirdy mabey more, years old knocking on Winry's door.

The woman gave a sigh as she backed away from the door and nearly knocked both Ed and herself down the stairs.

"Oh my. I am terribly sorry."She quitely said as she turned to them and asked who they were but as soon asa she turned and saw thieir faces properly she gasped.

"Oh gosh... Winrys not goin/" they woman was cut off as Winry's horse voice coming from behind the other side of the door, "Who's there?"

"Winry, if I tell you will you come out?" The lady said quickly before ethier Ed or Al could get in a word.

There was a long silence before Winry spoke again.

"Okay. Tell me I'm coming." Winry said as they heard footsteps

"Come out and see for yourself. And mabey we all could go out and get something to eat." She said as they heared the lock click and Winry's head slip out as the door slowly sliped open.

As soon as Winry saw Ed and Al she slamed the door shut and they all heard the lock click back.

"Winry please! Please come out. Please? You haven't even come out to eat in over two days." The nurse pleded as she slowly banged on the door with her fist.

Silence was all the awnser that she had gotten in return, so she tried again,"You need to eat something."

She got an awnser this time."No I don't."

The lady opened up her mouth to say something else but was cut off by Ed. "Yes you do."

And yet again silence was the only awnser she gave.

"Edward could you come with me?" the woman asked as she walked down stairs. I noded and Al told me he was going to stay up there and try to convince Winry to come out.

(Yg: Good luck with that Al.)

Once we were down stairs I asked her how she knew my name.

"You must understand Edward, you aren't the only one who's lost almost everything. Winry has, too." she said walking into the kitchen.

"What are you talking about?" Ed said following her in the kitchen waiting for her response as she opened a cabnet door.

She sighed as she closed the cabnet door and gave Edward the unwanted news that he so desrtly wanted now. "Winry has now lost her mother, father, grandmother, her dog and now she fears she has lost you guys. She belives that both you and your brother hate her."

"Why would she think that?" Ed quetioned her as she sat down with two cups of tea. "What is this for?" Ed asked looking in the cup as if mabey she had done something to it.

"Understand Ed its a long story. So I though mabey you could use a drink as I tell her tale." Then the kind woman explained of one day that had started out as any other, "Auntie and Winry were working on some kind of contraption andthen the dog come bounding in followed by ...a man using Alcemy he blew up the macine intistly killing Auntie and the dog. Winry was wonded horribly. The man seemed quite upset that she had sevived and started to say horrible things at her while beating her sencless."

"Ed became angry while she was explaining the story. Who could ever become that angry to kill the Rockbells.

"Who was this man?" Ed asked durning her pause.

In turn she awnsered,"I don't know...he looked like you.." she paused slightly and then coniued, "Then while he was beating Winry he noticed that she had passed out. Thinking that she was dead he walked out and I saw a flash of light and then in his place I saw a man with long green locks."

Ed was in a state of shock.Thoughts were running around in his head and they had nowhere to go. ((Like me...didn't Al see something like that? Scar called it a homacilde or something...but why is it after Winry?))Then a thought struck him."How do you now all of this?"

"I came here to pick my husbands auto-mail, she told me to get it because they were both very busy and it was just behind the counter there. So I walked behind the counter to get it, heard a loud bang and I saw the whole thing. I couldn't move and I felt so bad for her that I just stayed to help her get back on her feet but.. she only got worse."

"Worse? what do you mean worse?" Ed asked and slowly gasped as she held up a rasor covered in dried blood.

"No...Winry wouldn't...she would never..."Ed couldn't belive it. Winry was..well..Winry. Strong and Independent. She would never think of doing such a thing. Would she?
