Episode ELEVEN

The Ropes, the Ropes

After a long night of drinking at a bar, the military gang (including the still-sober Riza) walked down the dark town. Havoc fell behind, and collapsed, so Armstrong and Breda helped him walk back to HQ. Fury, who was also one of the only sober ones, walked behind them, when he heard some footsteps. He quickly looked back, and saw nothing there. The young man shrugged, and continued walking.

The ropes. . .the ropes. . .

someone whispered, and Fury jumped with a squeak. Riza looked at him.

"Is something the matter, Fury?" she asked. The man shrugged, and they continued walking.

Roy hiccupped and tripped on a crack in the sidewalk. Hughes burst out laughing.

"They just put that there. . ." he said. (my dad says that to me whenever I trip on something)

The ropes. . .

Bother men jumped and looked back, and saw a pale figure walking towards them, chains on it's arms, holding out it's hands. It seemed to have a rope around it's kneck and ankles. It wore a long, glowing white kimono, and it's (erm. . .her) hair was down, covering her face and shoulders. Roy and Hughes shrieked, and raced down the road, all the way up to HQ.

" -hiccup- Wuzzup wid dem?" Havoc slurred.

. . .the ropes. . .the ropes. . .

He, Breda, and Armstrong looked back, and saw that same pale figure. Their jaws dropped, and eyes twitched. Havoc and Breda raced to HQ, leaving the strong buff man.

"I shall defeat you with my BEAUTIFUL PINK SPARKLES OF DOOM!" he yelled in his speech-like voice. The figure let out a blood chilling giggle, and Armstrong's sparkles fell to the ground like rocks. He ran away screaming. Riza and Fury looked over at the figure, who stopped the giggle just to burst into a hysterical fit of laughter. Behind her, came out a laughing Edward, with several dollar bills.

"Here, Sae. Thanks for filling in for Kirie!" he said.

"No prob, kid. Call me anytime you need help." the figure dropped her clothing to reveal a kimono drenched in blood, and then dropped the wig to reveal shorter hair.

"See you later!" Ed waved, and grinned. He noticed Riza glaring.

"Heehee. . .I'm in trouble now. . .aren't I?"

This is my punishment for looking at that scary Al picture I mentioned a few chappies earlier. Yep.
