NOTE: Hey guys. Its...12:56 pm and im sitting here typing. I love you guys whole bunches! (even though youre getting worse with not reviewing) So I decided to write more! AND since im babysitting tonight, I think Ill make ANOTHER chappie! Wow! But dont think for a second that you dont have to review! If I dont get 4 reviews for this chapter, I wont put up chapter 5. I hate people like that. They just read someones story, and dont even review! Now, we had nearly 10 reviews for just the first chapter! What happened? Where are all my faithful r and r ers? Well, ill tell ya what, if I dont start getting more reviews soon, I WILL DELETE THE STORY. And I know you dont want that to happen, cuz I dont either. I worked too hard on these stories for them to just sit around and not be read. So, i REALLY dont wanna have to delete this...because some ppl acually like this story! And itll be all your fault because you didnt take one minute out of your 'busy' schedule to leave a review! Thats right, feel bad. Winryrockbell2 is busy most of the time, and she ALWAYS leaves a review! Cuz shes nice! And thanks to everyone else who reads/reviews this story.

Review Responses:

ihrtinu: Yes, of COURSE youre loved! Youre one of my best readers/reviewers! And thankies for loving me! Also, remember its not my fault if the story gets deleted, its all because of the ppl that are just too damn lazy to leaves a review. And still, im no genius, im just a crazy authoress with a pirate living in her bedroom ( 0 . 0 i know what you all are thinking...NO NOTHING HAPPENED! ...or did something happen? Cuz think of it, a girl...in a room with CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW. uh oh.) So yeah. plus, I LOVED your answers! they were all funny! The blackmail thing from mustang isnt what it is, but im still gonna do it, cuz its a good idea. I also like #2. Im gonna do that too. Yes, its fun to see what you guys'll say when i ask you those questions. Its so fun! (especially if youre like me and love taking quizzes)

Andrea8000: Thanks, I try! Your answers were pretty good. #1: Not really. But it does involve Ed, in a way. #2: Dont worry, they will. I kept meaning to tell you guys in a note that Akina will be back, but i kept forgetting. So, here ya go.

Chapter Four

FB's Office, Purchase of Property, and a little bit of Blackmail

We waded up to Furher Bradley's door. I reached out to the handle, turned it, and opened the door. We were then washed away in the flood of tears, and landed in front of FB's desk.

"Hey, Sir. Sorry I'm late." I coughed, making an attempt to wring the wetness out of my shirt. I hated it when I got my clothes wet. Exept bathing suits, I dont care if I get them wet.

"No problem, Miss Elric. Its quite alright." He said, handing me a towel. (Whered he get it? 0 . 0) I dried off my face, arms, and hands, and then started to dry off my clothes.

"So, what's in the mail?" I asked, standing in front of a fan. Dagger laughed as my wet, baggy clothes made strange noises. FB opened a desk drawer, and pulled out several envelopes.

"Not much. Most likely junkmail." He responded, handing me the envelopes. I flipped through them.

"Yeah, it usually is." I sighed. I sat in a wooden chair as I took out my pocket knife. The first letter had Mustangs office adress in the upper left hand corner. I made a disgusted face. I had a feeling this was bad. I took the knife and cut it open, and took out the paper within it.

"So, how was your trip?" He asked, looking at me. I looked up from my letter.

"It was okay. It sure was hectic, though." I said bluntly.

"Why do you say that?" Dagger asked, joining the conversation.

"Ed and Winry...they admitted their feelings, and--"

"AWWWWW! HOW CUTE!" She cooed. "But I can't believe I missed it!"

"Not only that, but we had a great dinner, watched movies, a little Nascar, made Ed into a snowman, dressed him up like a girl a few times, and trapped him under a pile of snow..."

FB laughed.

"Sounds like fun."

"It was..."

Dagger watched me as I read the letter from Mustang. I had this shocked look on my face. But then I started to laugh towards the end. I handed the letter to Dag.

"Here, hold onto this, Ed's gotta read it." I said, opening another letter. It was from one of my old friends back in West City. It read:

Kumori,

We all get heavier as we get older because theres a lot more information in our heads. So, I'm not fat, I'm just really intelligent and my head couldnt hold any more, so it started filling up the rest of me!

Thats my story and Im sticking to it!

Sincerely, Latara

I laughed and I handed it to Dagger as well. I looked at the third letter a moment before I opened it. My eyes widened. I tore the envelope to shreds with my bare hands, and quickly scanned the letter. I screamed and threw my hands in the air.

"Whats it say, Whats it say?" Dagger demanded. I cleared my throat, preparing to read it.

Dear Kumori,

We've been working on building your new house and it's almost done! If you wanna come up and help us out, feel free to. We could use the help! Jareth's being his lazy self again...

--Your Pal, Miki Kaoru

PS: Weve already got the utilities turned on for you.

I read it out loud with a huge smile. Ive been waiting for months for that place to get done. I couldnt wait to have my own place; living with Mustang was a pain in the ass.

"Congratulations, Miss Elric." FB said.

"Yeah, You gonna have a housewarming party?" Dagger asked exitedly. She loved parties.

"You bet!" I said. "Seeya later, Sir. I'm gonna go help 'em out." I stated. Dagger followed me out the door, down to the lobby.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Well, well, well. Lookie there, Kumori's got herself a house! Im not gonna do the adventures of jack and kumori right now--
