Notes: Eip! I'm sorry! I didn't mean for the rest of the weekend and Monday AND Tuesday to go by without updating!


21. Black Cat

"Are you sure about that, FullMetal?"

"Absolutely," the blonde answered, wary of the know-it-all tone in Roy's voice but not about to let him know that.

Roy didn't even look at Ed as they continued walking through the front gate of Eastern Head Quarters, and the boy knew it was because the man thought he didn't have to. That's why his smirk just grew when the blonde answered his question of how he was so sure of this with, "Because I'm the FullMetal Alchemist, Champion of the People. When have I ever failed an assignment?"

Yes, the Colonel's smirk widened at the answer. And then even more when he saw Ed stop as a black cat leaped over his feet. Perfect timing.
