-Cici's POV-

I slowly returned to consciousness. But I didn't open my eyes. Judging by the blanket over me, someone had taken me to the hospital. Well they can rot in hell. I want to see Ed and Al. I want to see my little brothers. I don't want to be in this dump Central anymore, and I don't want to be on my mission any longer. I want to be with the only family I have left. I then heard footsteps. Judging by the double clack on the ground, I figured it was a woman wearing high heels. A nurse, perhaps.

"Poor dear..Still unconscious.." the woman said in pity. She was indeed dressed as a nurse. I mentally cursed at her for calling me 'dear' and giving me pity. I then came up with a plan. A plan to scare the little nurse wench.

When she was about to leave, my left arm shot out and grabbed her arm. This indeed scared her, causing her to scream. I opened my eyes and looked at her. She looked back at me, and breathed out a sign of relief. "Oh, so you're awake. That's good. Miss...Elric, correct?"

"Yes" I hissed. I hated people like her. Her hair was a light color, which I assumed was blonde. She had an almost undying smile plastered on her face, too.

"Oh, well then, you have visitors! Shall I show them in?"

I rolled my automail eyes, staring at the wall. "Go ahead, wench." I then heard the same double clacking of her heels. Soon I heard more footsteps. It sounded like a lot of them.

Then Roy Mustang, Riza Hawkeye, Maes Hughes, Alexander Armstrong, and Maria Ross came into my room. I looked at all of them, and sighed. "Came to lecture me, didn't you?"

"Actually we just came to find out what happened and to cheer you up! So.." Hughes said. Before he could finish, I had thrown my silver pocket watch at him, and he dodged.

"I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANY OF YOUR GODDAMN KID'S PICTURES!!" I screamed, forcing myself to sit up.

"Calm down immediately, Metal Eye" Mustang commanded. I gave him a dirty look, before calming down.

"Sorry, Lieutenant Colonel" I hissed through my teeth.

"It's okay, Cici. We all know that you're hurt, and that just leads people to get angry at times" Hughes reassured. "But we need to know what happened to you."

I knew I couldn't tell them about the homunculi. Not yet. "The Rouge Alchemist. We got in a fight, but then he got so close that he could remove my arms and legs. After raping me, he gave me my limbs back, but transmuted a sword and forced it through my stomach. Then he ripped it through my side."

"All the more reason to bring him down" Armstrong said. He then began to flex his muscles. "And I will assist you, Cici Elric!"

"No, I'll do it alone. They were my orders, and I have to go through with them." I looked at Mustang, Hughes, and Armstrong. "You three understand, right..?"

"Absolutely, Cici" Mustang and Hughes said. We talked some more about what supposedly happened between myself and the Rouge Alchemist, then soon they had left.

Before Mustang could walk out the door, I piped up. "Colonel..When my brothers get back from Lior..And I'm still in the hospital..Can you tell them to visit me?"

Mustang looked at me, and I got scared when he smiled. "Of course, Metal Eye. You're a respected member of the military, believe it or not, and I'm sure Edward will help you with your mission." He then walked out, leaving steam coming from my ears.

"I DON'T NEED HELP!!!!!!" I screamed to myself, falling backwards, my head flopping into the pillow.

Days passed, and I got usual visits by my friends in the military. I impatiently waited for my brothers to come back to Central. I often played around with my pocket watch, then I graved something in it one day. The words "Never forget Seroko." I waited longer, then one day, when I was sleeping, I heard the door bust open. I jumped up into a sitting position and saluted, thinking it was someone big like the Fuhrer. My hand dropped when I saw Ed and Al walk in.

"Sis! I came as soon as I heard you were in the hospital!" Ed yelled. "Are you okay, you're not too hurt, are you?! Are you going to die?!?!" Ed sounded and looked panicked. I assumed it was because he didn't want to lose one more family member.

"Ed, calm down. I'm fine. Doctor says I can get out of this dump in a couple of days" I replied, smiling, then hugged him. "But thanks for being so worried."

"Who did it to you? I'll kill the jerk who hurt you" Ed said.

I looked around. I knew I had to tell my siblings the truth. "Homunculi. One named Envy took me to the hotel room, in Seroko's form, and raped me. Then one named Lust came in and did this to me."

Ed and Al gasped. "Homunculi?! But aren't living ones a myth?!"

"Until now."
