Brothers trought time

Chapter 4. Ego

Al looked down at the ground. He yelped as he realized how high he was.He clutched to something that turned out to be someones clothes. Al looked up and saw the winged man. So he was in some foreigners arms.

"Put me down creep!!!" He yelled and started to struggle.

"I'm not so sure you really want me to let go of you, do you?" Halfmoon smirked evily and looked at Al.

"Just put me down! Let go of me!" Al yelled totally forgotten how high they were.

"Sorry. No can do." Halfmoon said and flew a bit higher.

"Where are you taking me!?"

"To my place. That's one place you won't be able to escape. "

"What do you want from me!?"

"Nothing. But somebody else does." Soon Al saw a house that was built on a cliff. He searched a way down with his eyes but found none. It was like the only way to get in the house was by flying there, and the same was how to get out of the house. Halfmoon landed on a big balcony and dropped Al on the floor.

"I'll go and make you something to eat. You are my guest after all." He said with a normal voice. At least it sounded normal, for this time there was no any hint of evilness in it. Al stood up. "Your guest?" He mumbled and looked around. The view from the balcony was absolutely beautiful. The fullmoon shone it's light on the grassfields and forests below. Far away stood great blue mountains and a big lake that bathed in the moonlight. Al admired the view and almost forgot where he was. He turned quickly around at the door.

"Hey wait!" He shauted as he walked in. Trought the door was someone's bedroom. The bed was unusually small, it looked more like a child's bed. Al would have thought that the room belonged for some child but the swords and many other weapons, that were lying on the floor, told it couldn't be, unless it was some psycho raising a child and giving him swords to play with. Al shivered as he looked at the weapons. Some of them had bloodstains and few were rusty. He turned his eyes at the roof that was unusually high. 'Why... Why would he take me here..? Who could want to see me? No one knows me.. Right? We just came to this world with brother. No one knows us... Right..?'

Al was snapped out of his thoughts when someone walked in. He turned his gaze at the door. There was a man who looked alot like Halfmoon except he had a bandana that crossed his right eye and was tied at the back of his head, plus he had no wings.

"You must be tired. Come with me. I'll show you where's your room." The man said with a sad voice. Al hestiated but nodded. The man started walking and Al fallowed. He exmined the back of the man with his eyes as they walked. This man was somehow different than Halfmoon. Al wasn't sure why, but he felt like he could trust this guy.

"So... What's your name?" The man asked and looked over his shoulder. Al jumped a little.

"A-alphonse... My name's Alphonse." Al stuttered.

"Alphonse? Hmm.. That's a fine name." The man soid nodding as he opened a small door. The door was so small that Al had to bend a little so that he wouldn't hit his head. Unlike the room he just had been in, this room was small and Al could reach the roof easily with his hands.The window was small as well, but not too small. It was big enough to see the sky and the moon. The bed was normalsized though. He exmined the room for a while then he turned around to face the man behind him.

"Thank you... Ummm... What's your name by the way?" He asked a bit unsure of himself. The man was silent for a while staring at the floor beneath him. He looked like he was trying to remember his own name, like it was somekind of hard task or something.

"You can call me Serfer..." With that he walked away and left the door open. Al wasn't sure what to do so he just stood there speechless.

Slade stared at Ed in disbelief.

"So, you say, that you and your brother, who is somewhere, are not from this world... And you can use some power called alchemy?" He said and raised an eyebrow. Ed nodded. Slade just shook his head.

"But you're human! Humans aren't supposed to be ale to use that kind of power in this country..! It was made so, that they would never ever cause any more trouble with it!" Slade stormed.

"I already told you that I'm not from this world!" Ed yelled, hurt, defensive, for what Slade had said earlier about the humans, that humans cause only trouble in this country.

"Yeah you're right! You're not from this world! You're somekind of mini alien from the outer space!"

"Who are you calling a super-half-sized-maggot-from-another-planet you goose!!" Ed was ready to clap his hands together when Tidus grabbed his collar and pulled him back making him yelp.

"Way to go Tidus! Keep him up so I can punch him!" Slade was about to move but fell flat on his face. Garret sat ontop of the giant and held his arm back.

"Just relax you two, okay? There's no need to kill each other." Tidus said still keeping Ed in the air. Ed and Slade snarled and glared at each other. "So... You want to find your brother and find a way to get back home, am I right?" Tidus put Ed down and looked at him. Ed didn't look back he just stared at the ground. "..." It sounded so familiar. Get your brother back, return home. ed was sick of it. He had thought that in London, they had a home to stay. Finally he had all he needed and from now on he had nothing to lose. But what now? They were once again separeted and in a different world. Ed laughed bitterly. "Yeah, right." He said and turned his eyes at the darkness of the forest.

"I... I'll find Al... That's all... Then we'll figure out together what we'll do. I'm not interested in getting cought in another war or in other's problems." He said with determation. Tidus nodded. "That's a good decision." he said and sat down by the fire.

"Shall we help out?" Garret said with a smile and sparkling eyes.

"Thank's for an offer but I think that I'll pass..." Ed said, though he thought that help would be really wellcomed in a forgein country like this one.

"Why not? We have nothing better to do right now. We' re only on a quest to kill one stupido."

"Optimistic quiet!! You shouldn't be telling secrets to anyone you feel like telling! What if he's a spy!?" Slade yelled, still pinned down to the ground. "And let me up you midget! This ground's wet in this spot!"

"He's not just anyone... He told us his secrets and I told him ours... We're even..." Garret spoke and pointed a finger at Ed. "Besides, the ground can't be wet for it haven't rained for a whole week and I'm not a midget! I'm just not tall, that's all..." Ed looked at the pair. How could be, that so tall man could be held down by someone so small.

"Damn you Garret! Quit playing and let me up!!" Slade yelled and raised his free hand. Garret looked a bit scared and jumped off of Slades back. "Feh.. That's not fair..." He said and watched the other man get up.

"Like you're one to talk..." Slade mumbled. Garret just shook his head and turned to look at Ed again. "So.. We'll help you out okay... You won't be able to find him if you don't know where to start" He said with a smile.

"Garret's got a point ya know..." Tidus said and patted Ed's head. "This country got many beasts and stuff you don't know how to handle..."

"I do know how I handle a beast..." Ed growled. He really wasn't interested in sticking around with these guys. But it felt like he had no other choise. He sighed and sat down. "Great! We'll move out tomorrow"

In the morning, the sun shone straight to Al's eyes, waking him up. Al raised up in the sitting position and exmined the room. it was plain and dusty.

"Where...? Oh, That's right... I'm here..." He said and lied back down. He rested his head on his knees as he curled in a tight ball. 'Nii-san, where are you?' Al's stomach growled. He raised his head and looked at the small table beside the bed. There was a plate and on it something that Al assumed to be food. Maybe potatoes and some meat. Next to the plate was a cup of milk. That's right. Halfmoon had said that he'd go and make some dinner for Al but Al had fallen asleep before Halfmoon was back. He sat up again and exmined the food. Wait... This wasn't food of yesterday. It was still warm, so it couldn't have been there for long. He took the fork in his hand but halted.

"Maybe I shouldn't..." He mumbled and put the fork down.

"Why not? It's there for you and you only. I've already eaten so It's not there for me..." Said a voice almost behind Al startling him. He turned around and saw a white wolf with white wings laying on the edge of the bed. Al pulled back.

"A talking wolf!?" The wolf just laughed. It sounded kinda funny to hear a wolf loughing and if Al wasn't so freaked out he'd maybe laugh a little too.

"It's me, Halfmoon." The wolf said and stood up. He came closer and Al pulled back till his back hit the wall. The wolf transferred into Halfmoon and chuckled. He sat on Al's legs and looked at the teen straight to the eye.

"What are you? A chimera...?" Al asked with trembling voice. Halfmoon gave a laugh. "If that's what you want to call us. But we, call ourselves wolf-elves. For our ability of transforming from wolf to elf and the opposite..." He expaled and pinned Al to the wall from his wrists. Al was down right frightened and tried to sruggle free.

"L-let go of me!!" He yelled and tried to free his hands from the tight grip, but made Halfmoon only tighten his grip. Al gasped. Halfmoon lowered his head on Al's shoulder level his teeth on Al's neck.

"So, would you be kind enough and tell me who was kind enough to show you the way here..." He whispered in a soft tone. "I don't remember guiding you here nor sending anyone to take care of you... So tell me, who was it?" His voice started to grow venomous and Al felt his breath tickling his neck and his canine teeth, which were unusually sharp and big, pressed agains his sensitive skin. He shivered and raised his shoulder a bit as he tried to block Halfmoon's head away from his neck.

"S-stop that!! It was someone... Someone named... Serfer something or other! Please stop that... Please!" Al yelled on the border of tears. Halfmoon pulled his head away and looked amused. He was smirking in a dangerous way, or at least it didn't look really nice.

"Well, well... Serfer... Well what do you know I never would have guessed you'd return." He talked to himself looking at Al. Well, actually Al felt like he was looking right trought him, at the wall. "This might get interesting." Halfmoon said and stood up. He transferred back to his wolf form and walked out the door laughing on his way. The door closed and Al was alone again. He breathed heavily and held his hand on his neck on the spot where Halfmoon's teeth lingered not so long ago. His eyes were big as plates and he could feel the blood escaping from his face.

"Nii-san..." He whispered rather loudly in frightened tone.

On the other side of the door Halfmoon smirked. "Nii-san? So you have a brother too eh? Well, should I go get him to you?" He mumbled and looked at the door witha glee.

Lexan: ... Halfmoon's a pervert... Oh well, That's the fourth chapter, hope you liked it... It's a pretty short too but I ran completely out of energy...
