So, here is chapter five of this thing. Also, please forgive me if I get some facts wrong about the series, because it's been a while for me and I'm too lazy to watch it again. However, if you see a mistake, please correct me!
Edward rushed up the stairs, followed by the others. There seemed to be a little more pep in his run. Alphonse could only guess that it was because they had gotten a report so quickly. Usually, they would have to wait for days, and now it had only been a few hours.
Ed burst through the doors and looked around.
"Mr. Elric, over here!" called a woman. Ed looked over and ran over to her, taking the phone from her small hand. He put it straight to his ear and shouted "Hello?"
"Keep your voice down Fullmetal, I don't need an extra person screaming at me."
"Whatever, just tell us what you've found out!" said Edward.
There was some laughing on the other end of the line.
"Always hungry for information Fullmetal. There's been a sighting of more of those heartless things in the alleyway again. We've already sent some soldiers out there, but I want you to be out there too, seeing as you have more knowledge than any of us."
Edward chuckled a little.
"So you finally admit that I'm smarter than you. I knew you'd realize it someday!"
"Just shut up and got defeat those stupid things." Said Mustang. There was a large sound on the other side of the line, which was made by Roy Mustang slamming the phone back onto the receiver.
"What's up?" asked Sora, "is it about that Scar guy?"
"No, but more of your heartless friends have shown up." He said. He gave the phone back to the librarian woman and popped his collar a little.
"And the Colonel concited to MY wonderful knowledge of the foul beasts and said that we had to go help the soldiers."
Sora scoffed at Edward. "You don't know anything! He's only sending you because you have us with you."
Ed glared at Sora and began to raise his sleeve with his right arm. "What did you say punk?"
Alphonse got between the two of them, creating a wall. "You guys can fight on the way! Ed, where are we going?"
He continued to glare at the Keyblade master as he fixed his sleeve and told his brother where they were headed.
"Back to the alleyway. They've started appearing there again."
"Well then, let's get goin'!" said Goofy. They all ran out of the building as the head librarian scolded them for making so much noise.

Back at HQ, Colonel Mustang was furiously rushing through a two-foot high stack of paperwork that was due in fifteen minutes. He was going through them so fast that at one point, the pen broke in half.
However, there was nothing to worry about, because he opened a drawer behind his desk that contained an entire row of the exact same pen. He quickly picked one out and continued his seemingly never ending mission of finishing the papers.
Riza opened the door to his office rather quickly. She seemed unimpressed by the sight of the colonel rushing with the pile of paper that was on his desk.
"Colonel, I have urgent news." She said, saluting him.
Roy never took his eyes off of the papers that were in front of him.
"Lieutenant, are you sure that it can't wait? If you haven't noticed, I'm a little busy right now."
"With all due respect sir, that is not my concern, nor is it my problem. You need to understand how to manage your time."
Roy finally stopped and looked up.
"Did you come here to lecture me Hawkeye?" he asked. She shook her head.
"No sir, as I mentioned before, there's some urgent news. It's about Scar."
Mustang dropped the pen in his hand onto the top of the desk, where it bounced off to the floor.
"WHAT?"

All five of them had just arrived into the alleyways and began to run through the maze, trying to find the soldiers.
"Damnit all!" said Edward, "Why does it have to be so confusing back here?"
"It's alright, I think we're getting close. I can here some gunshots coming from over there." Said Alphonse, pointing in the direction from which the sound was coming from.
They all turned and began to run that way, and it was a matter of minutes before they reached the area.
They could see a group of three soldiers that were fighting a Large Body and another kind of heartless that Sora had never seen before.
It looked like a little person, but instead of arms, it had two large wrenches. The heartless insignia was located on both of the wrench bases. The heartless, with its yellow eyes, looked over at the group of five and let out a sound that was close to a growl.
"Hey guys, we can take it from here!" said Sora. All three of the soldiers turned around. Two of them were unfamiliar and retreated, but the third was one that recognized Edward and Alphonse.
He had blonde hair that was slightly rustled in the front. He had a cigarette in his mouth that was about half way burned out, and he was holding a gun in his hand.
"Lieutenant Havoc! Long time no see." Said Edward.
Havoc smiled and nodded. "Yeah, you guys have been out for a while, and then you had to go back to Resembool for a while right?" he asked.
"Yeah, we got a little beat up on our last mission, so we had to get some help from my mechanic." Said Ed.
"Can we save the small talk until AFTER the fight?" yelled Sora as he landed a final aerial attack on the Large Body, causing it to disappear completely, except for some money that it dropped.
"Oh, sorry!" said Alphonse, rushing in to help with the battle.
Edward turned and clapped his hands together. He then put his left arm over his right, causing a flash of blue electricity as he swept it over his arm, creating a temporary blade.
"Alright, fine, I'm coming!" he shouted. "You take a rest Havoc." He yelled behind him.
"Can do!" Havoc yelled back. He found a comfy place to sit and watch the fight in front of him ensue.
Sora and the others were almost finished with the new heartless (which they were going to call Mechanics) when Edward and Alphonse jumped in.
"Step back, we'll take care of this guy easy!" said Edward, rushing past Sora, Donald and Goofy.
"Yeah sure, cause we TOTALLY haven't been doing a good job!" yelled Sora.
Edward and Alphonse finished the Mechanic off and rubbed their hands together to signify that the job was done.
"See? I told you it would be easy." He said. Sora scoffed at him again. The glaring contest began all over again, that is, until Donald and Goofy pointed behind the two feuding boys.
There was a small army of heartless, made up of Mechanics, Shadows, Large Bodies and Soldiers (not from the military).
"What? Why are they back so soon?" exclaimed Alphonse. Sora and Ed stared in awe. There was no way that they could take on that many of those things at once!
"Let's go!" said Edward. It was worth a shot right? I mean, what other choice did they have?
They fought for a good ten minutes, and the army didn't seem to have weakened at all. Havoc had even returned to the battle arena, but they weren't making much of a dent.
"There's too many of them!" shouted Donald.
Sora cast a thunder spell and destroyed a small group of Shadows. "We can't just run away! If we do, they'll just invade the civilian area!"
There was a loud static noise as a red light invaded the area. It shot across the ground like electricity and destroyed at least ten Heartless upon impact.
At first Sora, tried to see where it came from, but he was attacked and had to turn back around. There was another stream of red electricity that destroyed even more of the pesky enemies.
"Woohoo! I don't know where it's coming from, but thank you red light!" shouted Sora.
However, Edward, Alphonse and Havoc were far from rejoicing.
"Do you think it's him?" asked Havoc, loading in another bullet cartridge into his gun. Edward nodded.
"Who else could it be? There's only one person I know who's alchemy is the color red."
Alphonse looked over into the direction of the red light, which shot through again. "Yes, but why would he be destroying the heartless if their supposed to be working for him?"
"I don't know Al, I really don't know."

Mustang was unable to breathe. What had Lieutenant Hawkeye said just now?
"Sir, I think we have to take action. Scar is in the city somewhere." She said again in her formal tone. Mustang regained his composure and straightened himself up.
"Alright, we need to get some soldiers to where he was last spotted to see if there are any clues about him or those strange new beasts."
"Wait sir, I wasn't finished reporting." She said.
"Can it wait Lieutenant? Scar is getting away as we speak!"
"It's about Scar again sir. He's not controlling the Heartless like we thought."
Mustang froze. "What did you say?"
"We have eye witness accounts that say when they saw him, he was destroying the heartless, not controlling them."
Roy fell back into his chair. If Scar wasn't controlling the heartless, then who was?
"And colonel," she said, "He's been spotted near where you sent the Elric brothers and their friends to investigate."
Ok, so there's another chapter up, I hope y'all enjoyed and I'm going to try and get these things out there as soon as I can!
