"Sakura…I'm sorry," Envy started to say with embarrassment, but the next thing he saw was not Sakura shutting the door but a sandal flying at his face which was intended to hit him in the eyes.
And the sandal hit it's mark as Envy fell backwards, blinded by the imprint of her sandal as Sakura screamed in the room for Envy to knock before entering a room! Envy was stunned on the floor as he rubbed his sore face and as he got up, he was face to face with a puffy haired Edward Elric. The two saw each other and the same thought crossed their minds and their lips.
"Don't ask," they simultaneously said to each other as they went to their separate rooms.
Meanwhile, Al was helping the young woman get up.
"Are you alright, miss?" He asked as the girl jumped up a did a few stretches.
"Yep! Never better, though I think I blew my cover." She stated, holding one finger to her lips in thought.
Al was confused as the young girl began to introduce herself as a new comer to the village and under the assumption that Sakura had stumbled upon something important that could be helpful to her people. Al stared at the girl as she lost the disguise of a simple villager to reveal her ninja outfit as she prepared to sneak back into the house and find out what Sakura was hiding.
"Excuse me, but I don't think you should be in here," Al said as he cautiously followed the guest through the house.
"Don't worry, I'll be careful!" the young girl shouted as she tripped over the sandal Sakura had tossed at Envy.
Sakura was shocked at the sound of someone inside the house as she heard the clumsy footsteps of the visitors tripping around the house causing chaos wherever she stepped with Al trying to help the girl from causing anymore trouble. Sakura gathered herself up in a robe and walked out to living room of her home to find house plants and furniture overturned with Al trying to put things upright; the young girl was found with a pot on top of her head.
"And what the hell is going on here?" She asked, her eyes twitching in anger.
Al waved his hands in front of him, "I can explain!"
"This had better be good…" She said dryly, the loosely tied robe slipping as Envy came in looking for the kitchen. His eyes widened and he turned to leave when Sakura's fingers closed over his ear, "Oh no, you and I have to talk after I hear this, understand?" Her voice and eyes left no room for argument.
Envy stood in shock as he was at a lost for words as he tried to keep himself from saying something wrong as he saw that Sakura's robe was open a small part at the top, and it was revealing her less then covered top half. Envy started to slightly drool until Sakura saw what he was looking at as she closed her robe and while running from the room to get dressed she shouted, "You're a pervert Envy!" shutting the door to her room.
Envy was at a loss for words as Ed came out of his room to find out what the commotion was all about and upon seeing the mess that the young visitor made and Envy with a look of shame upon his face.
"What the hell happened while I was gone?" Ed asked as he tried to make sense of the situation.
"Let's just say that house guests are the worst kinds of people," Sakura said as she came out of her room.
Al was still helping the young visitor remove the clay pot off of her head, it would have worked out too if it hadn't been for the open back sliding door as Al and the young girl fell out into the yard as the pot soon smashed on the ground. The two people were stunned on the ground as Al lay on top of the young visitor as she struggled to get out from under him.
"GET OFF ME!" The girl cried out, flailing helplessly as she struggled the get out from under Al. He got up and the girl sat up and let out a breath of relief. Sakura stepped out onto the porch and fixed the girl with a hard stare.
"Now then, you were going to tell me what you're doing here?" Sakura asked calmly, closing her eyes, "And it had better be good or I'm going to throw you into the desert with no water and a gun pointed your way. So start talking." The girl stood up and bowed to Sakura.
"My name is Shinomori Tomoyo, kunoichi in training." She waved, smiling stupidly. Sakura raised an eyebrow as the boys looked confused.
"A kunoichi? What's your mission?" Tomoyo stood up straight.
"To investigate the Takahashi mansion and one Takahashi Sakura, who was supposedly missing for the past two hundred years." Sakura's eyes widened and the boys turned wide eyes to her.
Sakura just stared at the floor until the leering eyes of her friends and Tomoyo made her look up and finally reveal the truth about the past that she had hidden, but it was a part of her past that she hadn't revealed to Al or anyone….especially Colonel Mustang.
"Well, I guess the present is better then never," Sakura said as she gathered her wits about her as the others came in and sat down to listen to her story.
"Story time, story time!" Tomoyo cried as she sat down on the floor. Sakura sweat-dropped and cleared her throat.
"Well, Ed and Al know what happened, just not when. Eh heh." She attempted smiling at them, but stopped and stared at the floor. "It's true. I'm technically 216 years old. When I was 6, I was visiting the country of Ishbal, and got sealed up in a crystal by an alchemist. About 10 years ago, during the Ishbal rebellion, Dr. Marcoh discovered the crystal and released me." She scratched her head, "The weird thing is that I should have died, but I was perfectly fine. Anyway, I joined the military and that, as they say, is that."
Ed and Al sat stunned at what Sakura had just told them, but one thing didn't make sense, what was she doing visiting Ishbal in the first place? Ishbal may have been peaceful at one time until the Military stuck it's damn noses into the people's business. Ed pondered the possibilities of Sakura's story, but in the midst of the silence Envy stood in the corner and pondered the possibilities of using the girl for creating the Stone if the Elrics failed to follow through with it. Unfortunately, his attention was drawn to Tomoyo was jumping up and down in the chair with excitement as she begged for more of the story, but she sadly sat down as Sakura told her that it was all she could offer from her life's story.
"Sakura, could you describe the alchemist who encased you?" Ed asked as he leaned forward.
"I really couldn't it's been so long it happened and most of the memories are a blank except for the ones that hold of Daisuke and my family," Sakura said with a sullen tone of voice. That which in turn set Ed off.
"Great, another dead end! How I'm suppose to create the stone when all the turns we turn down lead to nothing!" Ed shouted as he slammed the coffee table which caused the table fall apart and Sakura to reach for Ed's throat and start to strangle him.
"THAT WAS A FAMILY HEIRLOOM!" She shouted, shaking Ed back and forth, "AND I GAVE YOU A WAY TO MAKE THE DAMN STONE, BUT YOU WERE AN IDIOT AND WENT SKIRT-CHASING INSTEAD OF GETTING THE INGREDIANTS, STUPID SHRIMP BOY!" She dropped him to the floor, glaring down at him. She sighed heavily, "That's it, we're going to Central."
Envy was shocked from silence at the mention of Central as an evil thought crossed his mind, "Good, I could use a little fun messing with Colonel Matchstick and the whole damn Military."
"NO! I DON'T WANT TO GO THERE! ANYTHING BUT THAT! Uh, what is Central?" Tomoyo asked puzzled as Ed, Al and Sakura stared with disbelief at Tomoyo.
"We're not taking her with us are we?" Ed asked as he stared at Tomoyo.
"What else are we going to do with her?" Sakura asked as puzzled over the main torturous ways to rid themselves of Tomoyo.
"What are you guys talking about?" Tomoyo asked as she got close up to Sakura and Ed.
"Nothing!" Sakura and Ed simultaneously said as they angrily stared at Tomoyo.
