"How did you get it?" Ed asked

Drew didn't answer. She was on her knees, both hands on her head, and screaming.

The double doors to the mess hall slammed open. Furor King Bradley and Lutenite Hawkeye stood, sweat soaked and out of breathe.

"Damn it, Mustang! What happened?" Yelled the Furor.

"I don't know, sir." All the alchemists were unsettled that the Furor was not his usual calm self.

"Fuck, Mustang!" Bradley ran to Drew's side. "I placed her under your protection!"

Without anyone noticing, Drew grabbed the Furor by the collar of his jacket. "My…" She doubled over, dragging the Furor with her. "…Mother?" She released the Furor.

"Your mother died. Four years ago." He answered

"And…….The boys?" Drew rolled on her back in pain.

"Here." The Furor turned to every one. "Full Metal. Go, Get your brother." King Bradley looked reluctant.

"Al's here sir." Ed and Al rushed in.

"Alphanse. Come here please." Bradley stood as Al stepped over. "Use the Transmutation circle in her eye to stop the pain in her scar."

"I don't know how." Alphanse stepped back.

"You…don't have to." Drew reached up to him. "I'll show…" She stopped for a scream. Drew stood and took Al's hand. Biting her lip, she placed both their hands over her scar and eye.

The light of the transmutation flared. Drew screamed in pain and tore away from Al. Her scar and eye were a flame of light. She turned hard and SMACK her head strait into a wall.

When she turned back to everyone else, the glowing was gone, she had stopped screaming, and there was a red welt swelling over her forehead.

"I feel better." She stated with a smile.

"Are you sure?" Bradly stepped forward

"Would I have said it otherwise?" She rubbed her forehead. "Do I really need a 'protector'?"

"Yes, I will not have you harmed."

"Well, I'd rather be 'protected' by an Elric. Not just another Mutt of the Military." Drew glared past the furor at all the alchemists.

"Okay." He let go of her and turned to Ed. "Full Metal. You are to protect this woman without question. Do you understand?"

"Yes, sir." As the furor was leaving he ordered everyone to sit and stop staring.

Huese, Roy, Al, Ed, and Drew ate quietly. A minute after sitting down, Drew sighed. When she looked up, she saw worry in everyone's eyes. She looked away with another sigh. "Ask." No one reacted. "Your questions."

"But…The Furor- -" Huese started.

"Bradly doesn't want you asking why I need protection…or where I came from…or why I'm here. So…Ask your questions." Not only did Ed, Al, Roy, and Huese start asking questions at the same time. But so did the Alchemists close enough to hear what she had said asked theirs as well. "One at a time!" They all wanted to ask their questions first. "All right! Ed."

He smirked and asked the question most were asking. "Where did you get that scar?"

"Which one? This one?" Drew pointed to a scar on her neck.

"No, the one you just fought with."

"Uh." She looked around to find curious faces all around her. "Do I have to?" They all nodded and she sighed for the third time. "Fine. Ed, you must know you have put me in a tight spot." He nodded. She sighed again. "I got this scar from…your brother, Alphance."

All eyes where on Al. "I don't know her!" He protested.

"No, you don't. Not anymore." The eyes shifted back to Drew as she drank deeply from her water. "You were only Four years old." She put her cup down and watched it as she turned it. "I was seven. You didn't like me that much, but Ed hated me." She pulled her leg up onto the table and unzipped the pant leg. When the leather was pulled away, it revealed a scar that looked like bite marks. "He gave me this. He was only five. Ya'll ambushed me. I was asleep on the couch, Mama was in the garden, and you and Ed attacked me. Papa was asleep in his room. He heard me scream and woke up to come to my rescue- -"

"Wait…why were you at our house?"

"Oh…I was going to get to that. You don't remember me because Papa and I left that day. My true name is Drew Palara Elric." There was shock on every face in the room. "Papa didn't abandon you, boys. He sent letters."

"But…" Confusion had taken over shock.

"Let me tell you what happened in more detail."

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Ha-Ha-Ha see you next chappy
