Chapter 4: Sparks Are Flying

(Previously)-"Your mine!" Envy yelled running toward me when a giant sword landed between us, stopping Envy. We looked where it came from and there was Aisu and a purple haired girl.

"Sorry Envy…but you have to go through us."

(Hane's POV) I sighed in relief, I really thought I was about to die. Aisu walked up to the sword, picked it up, then turned to the purple haired girl. Her hair was a little below he shoulders and had purple eyes and she was wearing a purple Chinese style top, loose black pants, and black and purple combat boots.

"Erica, you take care of Envy. I'll take Hane and Ed to safety."

I slowly rose up. "No…I can fight."

"Hane please go with Aisu, I can take him easy."

"But he's not a normal guy. He'll kill you."

The purple haired girl chuckled a little under her breath. "Well…let's just say I'm not normal either." She closed her eyes and a purple light surrounded her. Then her clothes changed into a light purple dress and light purple wings emerged from her back. Finally a chain-whip that looked like it was emitting electricity appeared in front of her, and she grabbed. She turned to me and smiled very lightly.

"See…I'll be fine. Now go with Aisu!" She then flew toward Envy and began attacking him with her whip. Envy quickly transformed with the devil wings and began fighting hand to hand with her. Aisu quickly picked up Ed and ran past me, yelling at me: "Hane, c'mon!"

I turned around and followed quickly behind Aisu back to her house. When we got inside I went and fell onto one of the cushioned chairs. Aisu gently set Ed on the sofa a few feet from me. Aisu got up and walked toward the kitchen mumbling something about bandages. I turned to look at Ed and my eyes widened from amazement. I just realized it…that Ed looked so beautiful. He lost his hair tie during the fight so his hair was down. I wearily got up and walked toward the couch and sat on the edge of it. I brushed his bangs off his face. "Hane…" Ed whispered in a soft, dreamlike way. I pull my hand back, blushing a shade of red that would resemble Ed's cloak and I could feel my heart pounding through my chest.

"Why do I feel this way? It's so different then when I was with Jake…"

I heard Aisu coming back and I quickly moved back to my chair. She came back with a first aid kit and took care of Ed's wounds. Not long after I fell asleep on the chair I was sitting.


(Ed's POV)-I was sitting on the shore of a beach, watching the waves. That's when I saw Hane surfing on the waves (1). When she was done she walked out of the water and towards me. I noticed that she was wearing a purple bikini as she was coming up to me. She smiled softly brushing my bangs off my face. "Hane…" I whispered softly, slowly getting up and looking at her majestic, amethyst eyes. "What?" "I…lo-"

"BROTHER WAKE UP!!!"

I immediately open my eyes and sit up. Al, Hane, Spiffy, Aisu, and some purple haired girl were standing around me with expressions of shock and worry. I rubbed my nose and when I looked at it there was…blood. I quickly run off the couch and into the bathroom to take care of my nosebleed.


(Hane's POV)- "Do you think he's going to be okay?" I asked as Ed ran out of the room, Al quickly following behind him.

"Who knows…but we need to tell you something Hane." Aisu said.

"What?"

"First you might want to sit down…it's a long story." Spiffy said as we all sit down.

"Okay…but first…who are you?" I said pointing at the purple haired girl.

"Oh! Where are my manners. My name is Erica Raikou, and I know your Hane…the Angel of Light."

I just looked at them with a really confused look on my face. "What?"

Erica took a deep breath, "You see a long time ago, there were eight angels. Each represented a different element; fire, ice, water, lightning, wind, earth, dark and light. All of them watched over and protected the Earth. That was…until the Angel of Darkness, Shikyo, wanted to destroy the other angels and take over the world. She tried, but the others fled and scattered themselves over the planet. They went to eight different girls, and sealed themselves, and their powers, within them-"

"But…why did they have to flee?" I interrupted.

"…Shikyo slowly weakened them, so they couldn't beat her at that time. If they tried fighting her at the time they would've died. Right now the only ones that know about this are Aisu, Spiffy, you, and me. We need to find the others and awaken their powers before Shikyo finds them and tries to kill them and us. She has many minions, like Envy, so we also need to watch out for them too."

"That sorta makes sense. But how come Spiffy can talk and I can use alchemy without circle?"

Spiffy spoke "I can talk because I'm not your average cat. I use to serve the other angels and I came down her to find them. Also, the reason you can do that is because as the Angel of Light you are a master of alchemy so you can use alchemy without a circle."

"Right…like my power as the Angel of Lightning is being a master martial artist and Aisu as the Angel of Ice is like a super genius." Erica quickly added.

I looked at Aisu, "What does she mean by that?"

Aisu just sighed and answered in an emotionless voice, "She means I'm really smart and can remember anything I see, hear, or read."

"Wow…that is amazing."

"Whatever…" Aisu said and left the room and Ed and Al came back in.

"You sure your okay brother?"

"Yes Al…I'm fine" Ed grumbled.

"Hey!!! Shorty is back!!!" Erica pointed out.

Suddenly there was great tension in the room as Ed stomped toward Erica, pointing at her.

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING SO SHORT THAT HE LOOKS LIKE A PRETTY PRETTY FAIRY PRINCESS!!!"

"I didn't say that…but now that you mention it."

Ed tried to jump kick Erica, but she grabbed his left leg and flipped him over. Ed landed on the floor with a big "THUD". Al helped Ed back up and Aisu ran in…looking extremely pissed.

"Erica!!! What have I told you about flipping people in the house! You know a lot of the stuff in this house is breakable."

"Heh…sorry Aisu."

Aisu continued scolding Erica, I went over to Al to look at Ed…who was still out cold on the couch. I poked his forehead gently, and he slowly opened his eyes. Ed slowly sat up and rubbed the back of his head, it had a pretty nasty bump on it.

"Ed…you okay?"

"Huh…yeah Hane." Ed answers, turning a little red.

I put my hand on his forehead, which made him turn tomato red. "Your forehead feels really warm Ed, are you sure your okay?"

"Ye-yes…I'm fine." Ed got up from the couch and ran out of the room shouting, "I'm going for a walk."

Al and I had anime sweat drops. I decided to go to Central HQ, and actually talk to Jake about happened yesterday and do something I hope to not regret.

I leave the house, as I left I heard a lot of crashing, smashing, screaming, hissing, Spiffy screeching, explosions and finally a loud "THUMP", and it suddenly got really quiet. I just kept walking, afraid of what just happened.


I got to HQ around sunset, and walked into Jake's office. He was hunched over his desk with a huge stack of paperwork on it, with an exhausted and miserable. He was also mumbling something about a lazy bastard while working on it. I walked up to him and tapped his shoulder. He looked up with a sad smile on his face.

"Hane…I'm really sorry, it wasn't my fault. She made a move on me, I didn't even like the kiss. Please…forgive me."

Jake got up from his seat, walked in front of me and leaned down to kiss me gently on the lips. I pushed him away gently and looking him straight in the eye.

"Hane…Why?"

I took a deep breath and could feel tears starting to form in my eyes. "Jake…I'm sorry. I believe you and forgive you, but…we can't be together. I'm going to leave soon and I don't know if I'll ever return to Central. Once again…I'm sorry."

Jake spoke tying to hide the hurt in his voice. "I understand Hane. Can we at least still be friends?"

"Sure."

"One more thing, be careful and try to visit when you can."

"I'll try...but that isn't a promise."

I turned around walking out of the room letting the tears flow down my eyes. As soon as I was out of his office I ran back to Aisu's house.


When I got to the house it was dark outside and I was able to dry my eyes. I walked into the house, noticing that pretty much the whole living room was in shambles and Aisu and Al were trying to clean up the place.

"Um…what happened and where is Ed, Erica, and Spiffy?"

Aisu continued cleaning while Al sighed.

"Aisu told Erica that she couldn't have dessert for a week for using martial arts in the house. So Erica got very mad and threw a tantrum destroying everything in sight, and Aisu hit Erica in the head with her giant sword. Erica is locked in the attic right now, Spiffy is sleeping in Aisu's room, and Ed hasn't come back from his walk yet."

Ed walked in and right past me going up the stairs saying, "I'm going to bed."

"I think I'm going to bed too." I said and walked up the stairs.

When I got up the stairs there was a loud crashing sound, and I saw Erica walking from what I guessed was the attic.

"Does Aisu really think a locked door can stop me? And I thought she was smart. All well…now I need to figure out how to get back at the shrimp. Since its his fault that all this happened and I don't get any dessert for a week…maybe even longer for what I did."

"I think I can help you with that." I said walking towards Erica.

"Really? How"

"Back at home, I would always pull pranks on everyone, and I'm quite good at it. Plus, I'm bored."

"Hm…Your name's Hane right?"

"Yeah."

"Well Hane…what do you have in mind."

"Well…remember when you called him short and he said something about him being a fairy princess."

"Yeah…I think I like what I'm hearing." Erica smiled evilly.

"Well let's talk about it in your room and carry it out tonight."

"Sounds like a plan." We walk into her room to plan and carry out our little prank.
