What was that? Was it a dream? Ed lent over and looked out the window that must have fallen open and looked out over the town. He sighed and fell back to his pillow. He wasn't one to get such life like nightmares. He was just thankful the town wasn't being turned into plains of bloodshed.

Ed angrily closed the window, he was awake and agitated by that dream now, especially seeing as how once face kept popping up, of a young man that he didn't know. He silently got dressed, deciding a walk might clear his head, and he once again started to think about the strange phone call he had read.

"Hello?" Ed said softly as he he came down the stairs, hearing a rustle and seeing the soft glow of a lamp coming from the small library that branched off from the base of the stairs.
Ed poked his head around the corner to see a person slumped across one of the desks, atop a pile of papers under the glow of the green lamp.
"Effie." Ed sighed walking over and tapping the side of her head until she awoke.
"Oh god! Ed, don't do that!" She hissed through clenched teeth.
"Working late?" Ed asked, nodding to the papers she was sleeping on.
"Only because I found some people who seemed to be out of the ordinary in town, and I was looking up some background information on them." Effie muttered thrusting a hand full of papers at Ed before making herself comfortable once again on the desk.
Ed flicked through the papers, there were three people, a woman by the name of 'Liza Shefeled' who's photo was not on file, a man who to Ed, looked familiar for some reason by the name of 'Tony Geralds' and the third.
"Effie, isn't this you?" Ed wondered kicking Effie awake again and reading her file.
"Well, I decided to see what they had on while while I was here, after all, I was born here." Effie mumbled, resting her chin in her hand.
This was news to Ed. According to the file, she was born and raised there until she was 11 at which The family moved to central, no other information was given except the date Effie became a part of the military.
"And these other people, you met them while you were wandering town tonight?" Ed said reading more on the two people.
"Yep, the woman was heading towards the bushland to the north of town, covering her tracks very carefully, and it's even stranger that there is not much information on her since according to that file she was born here and that man I was at a local pub sitting the corner looking at what looked like detailed plans of the town, but he hastely rolled them up once he saw me looking in his direction." Effie seemed to have practiced this, either that or it was all just tumbling out of her mouth in a daze.
"How did you get their names?"
"I followed the woman from her house, and I went back and asked her neighbors, nice people they were, and the man, I asked the barman about, who told me, said he was a regular recently and he always sat at that table and did 'work' so yes, they seemed like the most suspicious of a casual lot." Effie pulled a bread stick from her front pocket and started to much on it. Ed raised his eyebrows. "I got it from the pub." She Muttered.
"I wasn't raising my eyebrows at you, I was at this mans file, Tony Geralds, says he was once a part of the military for a short time, only leaving recently. But it doesn't say why he stopped service." Ed thought aloud.
"I only know as much as you do."

Ed re-read both of the peoples files, but other than the fact Tony Geralds had served in the military, the only useful lead was the fact there was such little information on them, and it made them suspicious. Not to mention the fact of possible involvement of the homunculi regarding the phone conversation he and Al had read earlier.

"I don't think I can make much sense of this until we track these people tomorrow." Ed said, stifling a yawn and pulling up a chair to the desk, his tiredness catching up with him again now the nightmare seemed so far away. "Were there any specific names connected to these people? Any organizations?" Ed mumbled, fiddling with the paper clips that held the files together. He got no response. He looked next to him and smiled to see Effie asleep again with half a bread stick hanging out her mouth.
Trying to pursue some research himself, he checked some of the police records to see if their names were mentioned at all for minor or major crimes alike, and despite the fact he was tired now, he ignored it, and it was no surprise when he found himself being woken a few hours later by Al just after the sun had risen.
Waking Effie proved to be a more testing task, but eventually she sat up, pealing a sheet of paper off the side of her face and wasting no time in pointing out that Ed had a copy of police file no#10048 printed on his check.
"Well, it's your fault for making me stay up so late."
