I Wanna' Be An Alchemist

Chapter Two

Off To HQ... For Reasons Unknown

(A/N) Hey all, tis me CherryBlossomedHeart and well this is chapter two, and I don't know if anyone actually read chapter one... lol, oh well like I said this is mainly for Lindy. I laugh every time I read it, but I guess that's because it's funny having your friend do stupid things in your story, meh?

I woke up the next morning with a huge headache, to my left was Lindy, laying on the floor, she was sleeping with a trail of blood down her lips. I sighed, yep she still hadn't noticed. The door smashed open and in waltzed Winry, Ed, and Al. Lindy jolted awake as she coughed up some more blood, I placed my head in my hands, what now?

Winry looked serious. "You're too young and weak to get auto-mail..."

I looked confused. "I didn't say anything about–"

Ed interrupted me. "And don't you think you should rest up before you join the military!"

My eyes shot open. "I'm not joining the–"

Al cut me off. "It's just too dangerous, we can't allow it."

I laughed nervously. "Look guys I'm not doing any of that–"

Winry hugged me. "I guess your minds made up, I have no choice but give you auto-mail... and joining the military is your choice too."

I shook my head. "I don't wanna' do those things..." Ed and Al grabbed me and began dragging me into the operating room. I screamed as Lindy tilted her head like she didn't understand what was going on.

"Tasha what's wrong?"

"Lindy! They're crazy they're giving me auto-mail and signing me up for the military!" my nails dug into the floor as they dragged me further.

Lindy shrugged. "Meh? Good luck!"

"NOOOOOOO!!!" I screamed as the door shut firmly and Lindy went back to sleep.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When Lindy woke up several hours later I kicked her in the head. She groaned and looked up at me angrily. "WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT FOR!?"

I pointed at my new auto-mail leg. "Four fucking hours in there, no pain killers, no drugs... just cutting me open and attaching my nerves to cold STEEL!"

Lindy rolled her eyes. "It's not that bad!"

I pinched the nerve on the back of her neck as she squealed. "It's THAT times a BILLION!"

Lindy started sobbing and curling into the corner. Ed came into the room and watched us beat each other's feelings. He was soon joined by Al and Winry who just stood and watched the two of us, we were interrupted finally by Al who said "Our train is leaving in ten minutes."

I looked up, as did Lindy. "Our what?"

Winry looked as though she were to cry. "You two girls shouldn't join the military, you'll be away from your family..."

Lindy pipped up. "Excuse me? We're not joining the military!"

Ed gave me and Lindy our suitcases. "Why must you girls be so strong, why can't you just stay here with u!?"

"We don't want to go–" I tried to say.

"Why did you burn down your house!?" said Al sadly.

Lindy and I looked horrified. "OUR HOUSE!?" we yelled as we went to the window and saw our beautiful home...burning... how the hell did that happen? Lindy and I didn't do it!

Before we knew it we were being dragged to the train station. Winry sat next to me and Al got to sit next to Lindy... he smiled at her and the music started up again... the sharing of the feelings music, I gagged... why was this happening to us? BAH! I just wanted to bring Matty back to life so he could tell us how to beat level seven on Final Fantasy IX, and now we were joining the military? Edward's tormented stature stared out the window.

"How long do you think it'll take for you to find the philosopher's stone?" asked Ed.

I looked at him oddly. "Philo-what now?"

Al looked to me as the music stopped. "It's a long journey ahead of you now."

I broke down crying, Lindy laughed at me and coughed up blood (KARMA) Ed looked at me sympathetically. "It's okay to cry, our sins make us vulnerable."

"No it's not that! I forgot my toothbrush!"

(A/N) Odd? Yes hahaha, yes I hope you like it, less swearing this time. Meh.

Love,
