Saya jumped as she heard someone yell across the field. Then something was running towards the group as it got closer the three teenage girls, Tsuki, Katana and Ruber said at the same time. "Here comes Ed." Just as they said that a boy with blonde hair and a red coat ran towards them.
"STOP CALLING ME SHORT!" yelled Ed. Then a boy slightly taller than Ed with light brown walked up behind him.
"Brother calm down and let's get back to practice." Al said as a sweatdrop appeared on his head. Apparently this kind of occasion happened a lot.
Saya just stared as Ed seemed to almost be steaming and glowing slightly red. Tsuki went in front of Saya and said to the brothers, "Now Edward we just wanted to get your attention."
"Did you have to do it that way?" yelled Ed as he crossed his arms. Al had a sweatdrop as his brother once again lost his temper.
Then Ruber walked up to Ed and put a hand on his shoulder, "Now, now, Edward you're going to scare our new band member"
"Have I ever told you that you creep me out when you do that. And what the hell do you mean 'new band member'?" said Ed as he removed Ruber's hand from his shoulder. Which was true. Not a lot of people found Ruber very entertaining. Besides being horrible at giving directions, she has a tendency to analyze people while talking to them. Thus she basically dubbed herself 'the phsyco flute player to stay away from.'
Al looked from Ed to Ruber and then back, obviously his brother forgot what Ruber was saying, once again he had to remind him, "You forgot again! Brother remember Mr. Mustang and Mr. Hughes told us about it yesterday when they called us."
Ed though for a moment and finally remembered what his brother was talking about, "Oh yeah that's right, that bastard called me short and I yelled at him and hung up" Al gave a long sigh, that's exactly what happened. "So where is this new member anyway?"
At that Saya stepped forward and waved a little nervously and for good reason. Behind the angery expression Saya could see that Ed is a bit cute and over all hot. In the band this is known as Editis. In the school there is a club known as 'The Edward Elric Fanclub' which consists of practically all the girls in the entire, expect for band members. Roy Mustang thought it would be a distraction to everyone if there was member of the band in what he calls 'The club from hell'. "Uhm... Hi I'm Saya"
Edward looked over at Saya, "Oh hello, I'm the Drum Major Edward Elric. I'm supposed to give you some introduction to the band and you can questions and we'll move on from there. And the rest of you." He looked at Tsuki then to Katana and lastly to Ruber "Get back to practice!"
"Alright, alright shrimp" mumbled Katana as the three left.
"WHO YOU CALLIN SO SHORT THAT HE COULD DROWN IN A KIDDY POOL?" Ed yelled at the top of his. They just laughed and moved on.
Now let us get into the business of things. Saya comes from a normal high school marching band. Get a theme for the show, memorize the music, learn your spots in the show and practice until your feet are ready fly off your ankles; but this band seemed different. She walked up to Edand asked him, "What kind of show are we doing?"
"Show?" he asked as if Saya spoke another language.
Of course that respond made Saya wonder if the drum major knew what he was doing or if, by some off chance, this was some joke the band played on new students. "You know, what kind of music are we doing? A musical? A rock band? Or video game?"
"Oh that! We don't do that here... not exactly anyway."
"Then what do you do here?" Saya asked, now even more confused than she was when she first stepped on the field.
"Well" Ed started. "We're not a typical marching band, we're an alchemy band." 'an alchemy band...?' Saya thought to herself. She knew that the band is called the Alchemic band but she just thought it was the mascot for the school. Then Ed continued, "Basically, you take your instrument, which should have a transmutation circle on it, you activate it and make a weapon. After that it's all fun and games."
At this point Saya stood there, not knowing if this was a dream. She then realized it wasn't and is just going crazy. "So we do alchemy instead of music? Sounds like we should have wands and call ourselves wizards" she said a little sarcastically. The very second the word 'wizard' escaped Saya's lips the whole band stopped what they were doing and gave her a glare that would not only scare little kids but old grown men as well.
That's when Al ran up in front of Saya flailing his arms about as if to stop a mad mob, which is slowly forming. "Come on guys! She didn't mean it! Remember she's a newbie, she doesn't know anyway better!" The band calm downed a bit but there was still and eerie tension in the air.Al turned to face Saya, whom had just seen her life pass before her eyes, Al scrached the back of his head and said "Sorry about that but the Wizard band is our rival band."
"The Wizard band?" Saya asked, noting to never say it again in a joking manner, unless to make fun of them.
"They've been our rivals since before I came here. Their drum major this year is a bastard named Harry Potter. You see, we have a competition at the end of the marching season. Whoever wins gets a prize." Ed explained.
"What kind of prize?" asked Saya.
"We call it the Philsopher's stone but those bastards at Hogwarts call it the Sorcerer's stone. Anyway, just make you don't say that again."
Saya looked around and saw that the band had calm down for the most part, "Alright."
Mustang and Hughes have been in their office talking, sleeping, or at least Mustang not doing paper work and Hughes looking at a picture of his daughter for the millionth time since Mustang banned him from the phone.
Roy stirred in his seat, sat up and looked over at the clock, "It's time to tell the students the news." He stood up, walked out of the office and outside where the band members were talking and causing chaos to each other. Hughes in the mean time was following him carrying a very large black bag. As the students mingled to eachother about miscellaneous things. Mustang stepped on the podium infront of the 50 yard line and blew the whistle that hung around his neck. "Attention all students, we have a matter of utter importance that must be looked into now." The band looked at their director not sure what happened to make him sound so serious.
Roy looked at Maes in which he gave him the black bag. Now to some people, Mustang might be holding a trash bag and is going to tell them to pick up their trash. Other's see it as a body bag as a threat to them to not miss practice. And other's who were smart and didn't think like that thought it might have clothes inside it. They were right. "As of now we have a new uniform." Mustang said aloud to make his point clear. "This change affects only the female personel of the band." Instantly all the guys in that band gave a sigh of relief, but the girls, knowing that their teacher is a complete pervert, could only guess what awaited them. Then Mustang answered their quiestion of what is in that damn bag! He removed the bag and held up the band uniform. A brilliant red with a gold cord and on the back has a symbol of a cross with a snake wrapped around it and a crown and wings over them. The girls stood, wide-eyed and horrified at the new and improved uniform, sure the color and the design are the same, but Mustang just had to add his own touch to it. A tiny miniskirt. "For now on all female band members are required to wear tiny mimiskirts!"
Ok that's my story. And I really am REALLY sorry for taking so long, I just couldn't think of anything. Then I came up with this. And to avoid any akward questions. Yes, I was on quizilla. No I will not rewrite the story. And I have my own reasons for quiting quizilla. I hope that cleared things up. Anyway I hoped you guys liked this and I hope to have at least 8 reveiws before I go on with the story. Don't worry I won't take as long as I did before since I get really bored in my classes. But then again I also have band practice. And I almost got killed by a saber! Bye guys!
