The whole day seemed to quickly pass on by, as it soon started getting dark in the world. Katrina sighed to herself, as she walked on upstairs towards her new room that Winry had shown her earlier. Pretty much the whole day, Katrina spent most of her time with Winry as she showed her around her home and gave her some nice clean night clothes to sleep in as she was stayed for the night. Katrina slowly shook her head, trying to get rid of her thoughts about today, and yawned as she walked into her bedroom, and closed her door shut and started walking towards her bed. As she did she saw the night gown Winry had given to her earlier, lying down on her bed, folded neatly.
Katrina looked at it for a moment, lifting her eyebrow before she finally grabbed it and looked at it up close. It was just a long blue silk gown that seemed like it would go all the way down towards her ankles. Katrina just held it there in her hand for a second, untill she finally snorted and tossed it onto the floor. "Ugh, honestly. Like I actually need clothing to sleep in." She mumbled as she started taking off her shirt. But as soon as she did, she quickly heard a knock on her door, causing her to quickly stop what she was doing.
"Hello? Katrina? It's me Winry, I just came by to see if you needed anything, before heading to bed." Katrina heard Winry call through the wooden door.
Katrina sighed when hearing her and started grumbling to as she put her shirt back over her body and started walking towards the door and opened it. "Ugh...i'm just fine." She said.
Winry smiled and nodded. "Ok, thats all I wanted to know. Sorry if I bothered you. But hey Katrina? Listen your new aruond Risembool right?"
"Uhhh yeah."
"And Edward and Alphonse told me earlier that you didn't have any clothing to where. Is this true?"
"Yeah pretty much so."
"Ok great! Well then, how about tomorrow, after me and granny measure up Ed's arm and leg, and we get all the new structures out right for his new leg and arm, how about we go down to the market and look around for some new clothes for you. I'm sure it could be fun." Winry said smiling warmly at her.
Katrina looked at her, raising her eyebrow for a second before finally sighing and shrugging. "Well I guess it couldn't hurt. Besides I am needing some new clothes, after that last battle with the two idiots." She mumbled.
"Awesome! Well we'll go sometime tomorrow afternoon after we get Ed's automail arm and leg straitened out ok?"
"Ok."
"Ok, well i'm gonna go ahead and leave you alone now. Goodnight. Seeya in the morning!" She said waving, as she then turned around and started walking in the other direction, towards her bedroom.
Katrina sighed whenever she left and closed her door once more and started walking back over towards her bed. "Honestly. I just don't get humans sometimes..." She muttered to herself as she started stripping her clothes off once again. "And I certainly don't get why I have to do this job. Even though it can be a little fun with all these fightings I might have to do in these so called missions." She said as she pulled off her last artical of clothing and threw it to the floor. After doing so she sighed, and walked over towards a small dresser mirror to see herself in it. She stared at herself for a long time, checking out to see everything that has happened to her in the last fifty years as a humunculis.
Nothing. Nothing had changed since that fateful day of when she was once human.
Katrina sighed, closing her eyes, trying to block out her painful past. "I shouldn't be thinking of them...I shouldn't be thinking of...him. It's the future now. Time to move on. I will not be held down by the past. I am a humunculis now. Thanks to...him." Katrina muttered to as she slowly opened her eyes back up to see her naked form once more.
Her hands gently traveled up her body slowly, reaching up towards your full, plumped, big breasts. Katrina sighed, messing with them a little. Ever since she could remember, even when she remembered small parts of when she was once human, people have always picked at her for having big breasts. Not to mention how many guys had drooled over them. It was annoying to have people picking at them or drooling at them. She especially hated it when other girls just suddenly grabbed them and tried measured them from their own, saying how jealous they were. No matter how annoying it was, Katrina knew they came as an adventage when getting away sometimes. She even messed around with Envy a few times with them whenever he tired cornering her.
But she sighed shaking her head away from all those thoughts and slowly put her hands down on the sides of her body, and then turned around and started walking towards her bed. She slowly crawled up into her bed and fixed her pillow's, and then finally sat down to where she was comfortable on the bed board and grabbed a book from her backpack and opened it up and began reading quietly to herself, as she awaited the hours to go by, till the next day finally came.
"Ugh, dammit, Winry! Do you always have to mess around with my nerves! Ouch stop that!" Cried a annoyed little Edward who was sitting down on the couch, as a frustrated Winry hovered over him, measuring his arms and legs.
"Oh your such a big baby! I'm not doing anything to you!"
"Yes you are! You keep sticking your fingers right into my nerves! Ouch!"
"Well I wouldn't keep doing that, if you'd only hold still for just a second...now just sit up again, so I can take your leg off for a while." Winry said as she started getting off of him, and putting her ruler away.
Ed sighed and started mumbling under his breath as he then started doing what he was told and sat up. He then watched as Winry started messing around with his automail leg for a while as she ran her fingers up and down it, tracing it, while focusing hard on each part. Ed couldn't help, but blush a bit to himself as he watched her. He didn't like to admit, but he knew he had always had a crush on the mechanic. No matter how much they fought, Ed had always seemed to find himself fond with her, and loved teasing her. Even though Al would call that flirting, but Al was the only one who seemed to know that Ed had a crush on Winry. Actually, he always thought his brother cared about her more than just a silly old crush, but he always left his brother alone about that.
"Alright...now this may hurt for just a second Ed." Winry said as she slowly and carefully started unhooking a few things that were attached to his knee's and other parts of his legs. Then soon after that, Ed suddenly felt a jerk happening on his leg and then a sharp pain going through him, causing him to nearly yelp whenever she removed it. "Ok, there." She said as she slowly removed his automail leg away, and stood up.
"Ahhhh...next time...pull it off with a little less pain..." He whimpered out.
She only smiled at him. "Oh Ed. Honestly your such a big baby at times, you know it?" She said giggling down at him.
He sighed and started mumbling. "Only when you do that of course..." He mumbled.
"Well it's finally all over for you, for a while. In the mean time you should lay down and get some rest for a while." She said as she clasped her hands against each other, and then picked the automail leg up again.
"Ugh, don't you have those spare limbs of yours somewhere? I'd rather train with Al here, then rest." Ed said sighing as he looked up at the blond mechanic.
"Afraid not ever since Den used them up as his own personal chew toy, your gonna have to just sit there for a while." Winry said sighing, while wiping some sweat off her forehead.
"Oh great..." Ed mumbled.
"Oh just relax. I'm sure you and Al will find something to do around here. In the meantime, i'm gonna hurry up and start getting your new automail strutures together ok, and then i'm gonna get washed up for a while, and take Katrina here out for a while around town, so she can get to know the place a bit better and maybe find her some nice decent clothes for when you guys are traveling together." She said with a smile while looking towards her.
Katrina only sighed and turned her head away, crossing her arms.
"Oh so you guys are going out today?" Al asked with a smile, while also looking at Katrina.
"Yep pretty much. So Katrina, why don't you go ahead and get cleaned up, and then wehn i'm done we can go ahead and head out and try to get to know each other a bit more. After all, if your gonna be friends with these two daredevils then you should at least be friends with their little mechanic here." She said smiling.
"Ugh, whatever." She mumbled as she then started to stand up and stretch out.
Winry smiled and nodded. "Ok well, I better go ahead and get this done then. And when I get back i'll get granny and then we can go ahead and start working on your automail parts."
"Alright, when do you think you guys can get it all done?"
"Hmmm...probably give us tonight and half if tomorrow and i'm sure we can get your new automail parts on you by tomorrow afternoon."
"Ok sounds good to me then. Just as long as I can stand again by tomorrow." Ed said sighing.
"Yeah well don't hold your breath just yet. But i'm gonna go ahead up ok? I'll be done in an hour ok, so be ready by then katrina." Winry said as she then finally turned around and started walking on up the stairs. After watching her leave Katrina started sighing once more and started straitening herself out as both the brothers started looking up at her. "Sooo you and Winry gonna hang out today?" Al asked.
"I guess."
"Awesome! You guys just got to know each other since yesterday and it seems like you guys already are starting to be friends." Al said smiling happily up at her.
"Uhhhh whatever..." She said shrugging.
"Could you at least show a bit more enthusiasum?" Ed asked sighing.
Katrina looked at him and glared. "Ummmm let me think about the for just a second...uhhh how about...no." She said.
Ed glared at her. "Honestly you really need an attitude adjustment. But I just hardly think you and Winry are even gonna be friends by the end of the day by the way your acting."
"Whatever, like I actually give a care. I'm gonna be up in my room, reading, so don't even think about coming up, got it?" Katrina said glaring at them both as she then started walking on up the stairs and towards her room.
Ed sighed once she left and started mumbling. "Honestly Al. This is gonna be one tuff year. Esepcially with her on our side."
"Oh come on brother, just give her a chance. I'm sure she'll lighten up...eventually."
"Yeah right. By that time, she'll have already shewed our heads off and fed them to a wild chimera."
"Oh brother...just show faith in her. We all just met and maybe hanging out with a girl like Winry could help her out. Besides it seems like she does kinda like Winry." Al said with a smile.
Ed sighed and rolled his eyes. "You better be right Al. You just had better be right..."
"Ok, so where are we going exactly?" Katrina questioned as she and Winry were walking down the dirt path road. After Winry and Pinako had finally done their measurements on Ed and had done their structure parts for his legs and arms, Winry and Katrina had finally got theirselves ready and all set to head down to the market place.
Winry smiled and giggled when hearing her and turned around towards her. "Towards the market place of course silly." She said happily as she kept dragging her along down the dirt path.
"Ummm riiight. I know that, but where exactly is that?"
"It's just over the hill, and then we're there. I'm sure you'll love it! It's got almost everything there! Well not everything, unfortunatly for me and Granny but a few things you might like." She said smiling.
Katrina sighed. "Ugh...I hope." She mumbled as she and Winry had finally made it across the big hill and down it to see a big old market place filled with people nearby.
Winry quickly smiled when seeing it and turned to her. "Come on! I'll show you around and maybe we can find some nice decent clothes that might just fit you!" She said happily as she then started dragging Katrina towards the place. As they made it, Katrina sighed of relief whenever Winry had letten go of her and started looking around. 'Man, if she hadn't let go in five seconds her hand would of been---'
"Hey come on Katrina, this way!" Winry called out, breaking her away from her thoughts. Katrina sighed when hearing her and started mumbling under her breath as she then started following her. "Yeah yeah i'm coming" She muttered. She smiled and nodded. "Ok well come on. We got the whole day, so we got the whole day to buy you some traveling things. But first things first. We need to get you some clothes." She said as she then started looking around through all the shops.
"Ummmm oooooook." Katrina said as she also started looking around everywhere.
As Katrina looked around she couldn't help, but notice the people around her all laughing and running around the place. She saw many children running with their new toys in their hands, and adults all talking and laughing with each other as they looked around through the shops. The sun shining down on all of them making them all glow with what seemed to be happyness. Oh how it made her sick. Katrina hated seeing a person happy, but she never knew exactly why. Was it because of her not ever being happy? Or was it another reason that she didn't know? All she knew was that she hated seeing a person happy and thats all that their needed to be. But as she looked around at the people around her, she suddenly noticed Winry stopping all of a sudden in front of a window.
Katrina looked at her, blinking a few times before also turning her gaze towards what she was looking at. A small white looking tank top with straps that were on shoulders and came all the way down to a little purple skirt that seemed to match well with the outfit, and along with some traveling shoes that also seemed to match. Katrina had to admit that it didn't look too bad, but still didn't know why Winry was staring at it. That is untill you noticed her gaze turning towards her.
Katrina quickly looked back at Winry to see her hand up to her chin and studying her up and down closely. Which was kinda a little uncomfortable for her, as she took a step back. "Uhhh what are you doing?" She asked, lifting her eyebrow.
Winry quickly stopped studying her, as her eyes went back up to hers, with a smile. "You know what? I think i've just found you the perfect outfit for your traveling missions!" She said happily, clapping her hands together.
Katrina looked at her, blinking a few times. "You mean..."
"Yep! Come on! We better hurry! It's on sale too, and ooooo this will be sooo perfect on you!"
"B-B-But, it might cost a fortune!"
"Oh don't worry about that, Ed lended me some of his money so, no problem!" She said as she started dragging Katrina on into the store. As they walked in, you looked around noticing all the traveling things around the little shop.
"Ummm oooook." Katrina said to herself, whenever she felt Winry stop dragging her whenever they made it over to the outfit she had been staring at.
"Ok! Now lets see...what size are you?" She questioned.
Katrina shrugged and crossed her arms. "I don't know. It's been forever since I last checked and haven't really cared that much."
"I see...well turn around!" She said as she quickly spun her around before Katrina could say anything and started looking down at her shirt. "Hmmmm...not bad. Now for your shorts...ok...perefect! This seems to just match with you perfectly!" She said happily as she then turned back around and started getting the outfit.
Katrina growled, but then sighed whenever she did. "Ugh, well just as long as it fits me I guess..."
"I'm sure it might. But we better go ahead and find some other outfits for you too, not to mention a new backpack, and maybe some shampoo, conditioner, and a hair brush, and maybe a bandana, some hair clips, some other hair type things, oh and maybe some mechanic tools too!" She said happily as she started twirling around with complete joy.
Katrina started sweatdropping as she did. "Uhhhh...we're gonna be here all day shopping for that stuff aren't we?"
"You bet! Come on! We got this whole day ahead of and we're not gonna waste it anymore!" She said happily as she started dragging Katrina on through the rest of the store, trying on some new outfits and other what nots for your traveling adventures with the Elric brothers.
Of course, pretty much Katrina was in torture for the rest of the day as she was hanging out with Winry doing nothing but shopping for girl things, wishing so much in her head she was with the other homunculi instead. 'Oh this is gonna be a LONG day...'
