"Haaaaa…that is so much better." Hughes sighed, walking along inhis borrowed shorts and t-shirt, "Thank you so much Logan."

"Not a problem mate." Logan grinned toothily, "Glad t' help."

-WHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHP-

A huge surge of air blasted down on the two, gusting off the ground and making their lightweight clothing billow.

"Well would ya lookit that." Logan whistled, staring up at the helicopter that was bearing down on them, "Y' don't see that everyday now do ya?"

"Wh-what is that?" Hughes mumbled out numbly, confused and a little unnerved as he had never seen such a contraption before.

It it was huge and metallic and had a body that slightly resembled that of a dragonfly's...but there was the matter of the huge, rotating blades that made it look very threatening and completley unlike it's insect counter part.

"That's a chopper, mate." Loga replied, eyebrow raising slightly, "You weren't kiddin' when y' said you were out of it were ya?"

"No…" Hughes replied slowly as a rope ladder was tossed out of the noisy thing and two familiar faces poked out.

"Hyuu-san!" the teal haired girl cried, waving furiously, "Noboru! Isoginasai!"

"Hyuu-san!" The purple haired teen said, looking relieved, "Hontouni ureshii daijoubu!"

Staring at the rope ladder vacantly for a few seconds, Hughes quite sudden jerked from his daze by something smacking viciously into his skull: a black, steel-toed combat boot to be exact.

"Hey RETARD!" an all too familiar, acerbic female voice shouted, "Getcher awfully, animated ass UP HERE YOU CHOAD!"

"Sweet girl." Logan smirked, shaking his head sympathetically as Hughes began to climb, "Love'er fangs."

"Thank you for everything." Hughes smiled sheepishly as he ascended the ladder.

Hinode and Sora grunted loudly as they tugged Hughes aboard the helicopter.

"Doko no miku, Kakyoin-sama?" a voice asked from the cockpit.

"Munich, Germany." Akane replied coolly, glaring ferally at Hughes as she tugged off her other boot so as to have some sort of symmetry.

"Hyuu-san, daijoubu ka?" Sora asked.

"I-I'm terribly sorry but-" Hughes began only to have Akane interrupt him with a snarl.

"She asked if yer alright, jackass." She growled ferociously, switching her foot back and forth in agitation, "Waste a energy in my opinion."

"Um…could you tell her I'm fine? Please?" Hughes asked carefully.

"Tch. This. Is so…" Akane growled, before switching around and barking at her friends, "Ossan no shiru."

Panicked looks filled both girls faces and they were on Maes in a matter of seconds.

"SHIRU?" Sora screeched, stamping her feet, "IIE! IIE! IIE! IIE! IIE!"

"MEIIS-KUN HI YURUSU SHIRU!" Hinode sobbed hysterically.

Maes could only stare in bewilderment and couldn't even begin to guess what Akane could have told the Otaku Twins to make them react this way.

"DAMARE-YONO BAKARO!" Akane bellowed, "OSSAN NO DAIJOUBU!…ahou."

The two fell instantly silent as looks of the utmost relief flooded both Sora and Hinode's faces and Hughes could only assume that Akane must have told them he was fine…or…at least something to that effect.

Roy sobbed quietly, head in his hands, as a contortionist handed him a plate of food with her foot.

All this German was giving him a perforated ulcer!

You would think all this spandex and skimpy clothing would have put Roy in seventh heaven, but no.

Most of the performers in the show were male, and rarely shaved, so there went the idea of heaven right down the drain.

"Eh? What's that?" the trapeze artist from earlier asked distractedly, glancing out of the tent as a huge flurry of wind gusted through.

-WHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHP-

The blanket one of the performers had draped over Roy's shoulders was blown away to parts unknown as the helicopter peered into the tent.

"HEY ASSHOLE!"

Roy's head snapped up at that familiar, grating voice: Akane, her long, midnight-blue hair flying about her, face contorted in a look of extreme disgust.

"GETCHER ANIME ASS IN GEAR!" she shouted.

Roy didn't need to told twice.

He was on that odd contraption fast than you could say "YIPEE!"

Hughes looked at his commander in a concerned manner and patted his shoulder comfortingly.

"Don't worry, sir." He said soothingly, "It'lll all be over soon."

"Remind me that the first thing I need to do when we get back…is learn at least two words of German." Roy mumbled into his knees.

"Why German, Roy?" Hughes asked mildly surprised.

"JUST DO IT!" Roy snapped.

"Y…yes sir." Hughes replied nervously, worried about his commander's current mental state.

Completely ignoring this little production, Akane stalked back up to the cockpit and drawled out coolly, "Hawaii, Ryu, and fer th' love a GAWD make it fast."

"Yes ma'am." The pilot nodded, increasing speed as the sounds of Roy's yells as Sora and Hinode tackle glomped him were heard emanating from the cabin.

"Get a-WAY FROM ME!" Ed yelled, running around a beach umbrella, only to find himself trapped by a pair of awaiting, suntanned arms.

"GOTCHA!" a giggly teenage beach bunny squealed as she captured the Fullmetal Alchemist.

"Way t' GO Nadine!" an equally tanned girl cried, dashing over.

"HEEEEE! He's soooooooooo kyoot!" another cooed, pinching Ed's cheeks.

"AHMSTWONG! HELF MEH!" Ed shouted at the muscular man, currently flexing for a rapidly growing group of beach bunnies.

But Armstrong couldn't hear poor Ed's cries for help over the high pitched harpy shrieks of the bikini clad girls and continued to show off his ample muscles.

Suddenly, sand began to fly into the eyes of the beach bunnies for no apparent reason, causing them to scream in pain.

The bikini clad girl holding Ed captive released him almost immediately to let her hands fly to her eyes, and Ed took full advantage of this and bolted.

But he didn't get far.

-WHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHPWHP-

The strangest looking contraption Ed had ever seen in his life swooped down from the sky, blowing beach towels, umbrellas and sand everywhere.

"Well what's all this?" Armstrong asked mildly as Hughes popped his head out of the strange thing.

"Hey you two! Hurry and get in quick!" he cried, "Akane isn't in the mood to wait around!"

Ed was a little hesitant to climb aboard the strange contraption but was given little to no choice as a pair of hands gripped him by the shoulders and tugged him inside.

Armstrong required no help and leapt easily aboard.

Akane shot them both a glare that could kill, resurrect and kill again.

"California, Ryu." Akane hissed venomously, eyes never leaving the anime charas, "Don't. Make. Me. Wait."

"Yes ma'am." Ryu said officiously, maneuvering the helicopter back into the air as Ed shrank back in a corner.

"Eddu-kun, daijoubu ka?" Hinode asked, touching his arm.

"Huhwuh?" he blinked, seriously confused.

"I think she's asking you if you're okay, Ed." Roy said, sounding a bit more stable.

"Oh." Ed said, "Well I will be…once we're away from that crazy bitch." he added under his breath.

"I heard that." Akane snarled.

"HEEP!" Ed squeaked.
