It was a buzzing city, the place people called 'Central'. Much like the place where the two girls originally lived before. As the walked the cobble stone streets the looked upon the merchants calling them over to look at expensive silks or antique pottery. Crystal bushed them aside with a cheerful smile and a friendly wave goodbye. Her sister on the other hand, dashed over to a peculiar stand that was selling fine jewelry. She stood there for a few moments glancing from one glass case to another filled with bracelets. Then she shook her head and looked at the merchant and then smiled.
"Never mind. I don't need jewelry I have my own!" she shoved her wrist in his face and giggled slightly "See their paper clips! I made them all on my own!" She skipped away back to the group she was tagging along with. They never noticed she was gone until she bounced into her sister causing her to run into a fruit stand, knocking over half the fruits in the cart and smashing them on the ground. The merchant dashed over to the blonde girl and grabbed her by the shoulder fiercely, yanking her against a wall and shouting.
"Look her young' in! I don't spend all my time growing these just to have them smashed by some careless whore! Watch where you put your big feet or next time we'll have our selves a little problem! Understood?" He gave her one more little shove against the wall before slowly taking off. But before her could take at least two steps the blonde snapped.
"Look here…ASSHOLE! I don't appreciate the name calling and the aqusations your throwing at me. So keep your big mouth shut, cause not all women are going to stand her and take a beat down from such a man like yourself. Acquire some manners and then we'll talk." She walked up to him and looked him in the eye. Her fists clenched ready to fight if he dared to hit her. She grew up being picked on and beaten up, but as she got older she learned how to fight and if it was necessary she would fight a man. The man drew his right arm back and was about to release the blow when it was stopped before it hit her face. She was holding his big fist in the palm of his hand. She gave him a slight smirk and was about to hit him when her arm was yanked back by an un familiar grasp.
"Ma'am that wouldn't be the best of ideas at the moment." A deep masculine voice said. The blonde turned her head around to see who was stopping her from finishing off that rude bastard. "The name's Colonel Mustang. Pleasure to meet you. But im going to have to ask you to step away from this guy and let me handle it." He winked and let go of her arm. He took a step in front of her and looked to the man and shook his finger. "Now is that any way to treat such a charming young lady? I think you owe her an apology for this was probly nothing more than an accident. Go on now!" He nodded his head in Crystal's direction with a serious look. He watched as the man apologized and then shoved him about his way. Then he look towards Ed and questioned "Fullmetal, you were just going to stand her and let this man be beaten by this girl? Not very military like now is it?"
Ed wasn't able to get a word in before the brunette girls jumped into a whole new subject. "HEY! I know you! Your Roy Mustang! Hahaha I so know you!" she said with a huge smile across her face and a feeling of accomplishment. She waved hi and then strutted off to investigate some kittens playing in the alley ahead, also playing with Al.
Roy, Ed, and Crystal watched in amazement as the girls skipped off. It was impossible how her mind switched subjects so fast. When she finally reached the alley, Roy turned back to the two and then studied the blonde girl in front of him. She was young maybe about 20. She had tan skin and long blonde hair streaked with a golden tint. Her eyes sparkled of a crystal blue and the freckles around her nose were, cute? Thoughts poured into his mind about this girl like all the others he meets and or dates. But something was different about her.
"Well Fullmetal aren't you going to introduce me to your friend here?" He questioned as he stuck out a hand in front of her. "You know it is rude not to introduce people. But I expect it from a short childish boy like yourself." He said with a chuckle, as Ed's face got red with fury.
"IM NOT SHORT! I am of perfect size for my age, that's all. And as for your question, this is Crystal Hancroft, she studies Alchemy." Looked over at the girl as she shook Mustang's hand and smiled at him. "And that very random girl over there with Al is her sister, Kiah. They came all this way to look into testing for a State Alchemist title." Roy nodded in interest. He thought to himself, quietly and then looked up to the sky. It was turning to dusk now, so they would need to head off somewhere for the night.
"It's getting to be night time. Maybe we should head back to headquarters and discuss this further over some coffee or maybe tea?" Roy was mainly asking Crystal but Ed forced himself back into the picture by clearing his throat. Roy glanced at him slightly annoyed and turned to head in the direction of Headquarters. Ed ran to the alley to get the attention of the other two. But first he checked all stomach to see if he had placed some "lonely" kittens in there. He noticed that Kiah was carrying two kittens in each arms smiling and cooing at them. He laughed loudly getting her attention that he was watching her and said some words muffled by his laughter.
"Your going to have to put them back. You cant have them where we are going, there's a dog there that could possibly want them for dinner!" He laughed again, but choked when his brother slapped him across the back in fury. He faced Al and clenched his fists in anger. "What was that for Al? I was only joking!" he snorted in disbelief that his brother would hit him.
"Don't joke like that brother. Kiah and I don't like those kind of jokes!" he said in a huff and walked off to catch up with Roy, with Kiah following behind them laughing away at their silly argument.

By the time they all reached headquarters it was night time. Hawkeye had just finished her paperwork was beginning to head out the door when she bumped into the crowd. She noted that there were two more people who weren't affiliated with the military. She curiously asked each of the girls who they were and what they needed assistance of. Roy raised his hand in a way of showing her that he had it covered. She nodded and continued her way out the door. When the door was closed Roy finished leading everyone to the main room of the Headquarters. When everyone was seated her started up the conversation that they were having in front of the merchants stand. Anyways about taking the test for State Alchemic License." He said clearing his throat. "What is it exactly that you ladies would like to apply for? You know like a certain alchemy that you study."
The girls looked at each other and the blonde spoke first in a somewhat high-pitched voice. It seemed to be raspy, maybe from too much smoking in her lifetime. But it was that kind of raspy that most guys thought was "hot" on a girl. " Well I have always been interested in Fire Alchemy but transmutation and Elemental alchemy is my specialty. And my sister is just your ordinary alchemist. She can fix and make things…im not certain what all she does, but I know she does it." The girl said with a shy laugh. The whole time her sister was in the background just nodding and making facial gestures at Al trying to make him laugh.
Roy nodded as he leaned back in his chair to study the candle light dancing across the bookshelf behind the girl. IT came to them that they would need a place to stay, and he wasn't about to pass up the chance of offering a beautiful blonde to stay here at quarters. "I'll just let you two girls discuss it later on. But its getting late so maybe we all should head off to bed. Umm, do you ladies have a place to stay?"
Crystal looked around and then looked at herself and nodded. "No im sorry but we don't. And we don't have money to pay for a hotel so were stuck on the streets I guess you could say." Her sister jumped into the conversation by saying she only had some lint and a penny to spare as money, and something about her finding a dime but it was stuck in some gum by the garbage can she was chasing a cat into. Crystal looked back at Roy and embarrassingly said "But other than what my sister has, were broke."
Roy laughed and the stood up and headed for the door. "If you ladies would follow me I can lend you guys a room. Its not much of anything you guys would be used to. It's just got a bed and a couch, and a fireplace. But im sure you two would find it cozy enough to stay one night in." he smiled at Crystal once more. He seemed to like this girl more and more, especially since she had a fetish for fire like he did, that made her even more smoking hot than she was.
