Ch. 3
Samantha had somehow managed to ditch the guys in a few seconds. She hid in a bush, taking off her denim jacket. She wore a white tank top and black pants. Sitting in the bush, she thought about her brother and his first lieutenant. It was sort of obvious that there was more than a friendly affection running between the two, but both seemed oblivious to it. More than that, every one of Roy's subordinates seemed romantically deprived, especially Havoc. The only exceptions were Hughes and Falman, for obvious reasons. She touched a finger to her chin in thought. "I can always have fun with the rest of the boys," she mused aloud.
"Where did she go?!" Havoc shouted to the rest of the group. "You already asked that," Falman reminded him. "She was right here," Breda said. "Then I went into the café to get a donut." Fuery looked at the ground. "And I saw a dog." Falman sighed. "Book store." Havoc sighed as well. "Hot girl with the dog." The group let out a collective sigh. "We're dead meat."
Maes was walking along the park, seeing as it was his day off. His beloved Elicia was at day care and his amazing wife Gracia was shopping, so he had no one to dote upon. He noticed a bush quivering slightly, so he peeked over. It was at that moment that Samantha had been talking to herself. "What kind of fun?" he asked her. She looked up, her eyes wide. "Oh, Hughes, it's just you..." she sighed, a hand on her chest. After helping her out of the bush, they walked along a path. "So Hughes, you're my brother's friend, right?" she asked. He nodded. "You can call me Maes, Kiddo," he said. "And yeah, me and Roy go way back." She made a noise of acknowledgment and walked along. "Why do you ask?" he asked her, adjusting his glasses.
"Let's split up," Breda suggested. "We'll find her easier that way." Fuery shook his head. "Never split up!" he shouted. "It's like those horror movies, we're easier to kill off that way!" The group stared at him for a second. "IT'S THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY!' Havoc shouted at him. After a few minutes of argument, the group split up. Falman headed toward the shops to see if she'd visited any of them, Breda headed to HQ to see if she'd just gone back, and Fuery (who could not be convinced that an axe murderer was not going to come out and kill him) tagged along with Havoc to check the park. "I can't believe we lost the chief's sister. And why didn't he ever tell us he had a sister?" he said, mostly to himself. Fuery kept quiet, listening to Jean's rant.
"Has my brother ever mentioned me?" she asked Hughes. He looked at her for a second, thinking back. "No, I can't say he has." He saw her eyes glaze over with sadness as soon as he said it. "But," he added quickly. "That is most likely to protect you. His ambitions are dangerous you know." She nodded sadly. "Yeah, I'm sure."
Havoc saw Samantha walking with Hughes. "Samantha!" he and Fuery ran over to them. She smiled at them and Hughes noticed just how fake the smile was. "Sorry I walked off," she said. "I thought I saw someone I knew and I guess I just got lost!" Havoc and Fuery laughed to themselves. "Hey Maes, thanks for finding her," Havoc said. "Mustang would have burnt us if anything happened to her." Samantha laughed along with them, but she couldn't stop a thought from keeping her from being truthfully happy. Why had Roy kept her under such a tight watch? Why hadn't he told anyone about her?
