The Sins of Alchemy and The Tools we Call Shinobi

Chapter 9

Battle from Hell

I don't own FMA or Naruto

((Hey you guys, im back with vengence! Anyway, I now have a deadline time, so expect a chapter by 10:00 PM Eastern US time on fridays unless otherwise stated and in case you didn't guess, the dragon technique is based on Haku from "Spirited Away", I got the idea becase I thought that guy sounded like the Dub-Sasuke. Later!))

"Thanks Naruto-san!" said Alphonse thankfully. "This is the perfect place for me and nii-san!" Edward also grinned but Naruto simply sighed. "It's a present for Edward, speaking of which..." A large vein popped up on him. "WHAT IS THIS ABOUT BEING A NINJA!" he yelled, at full anger and full volume. Edward looked dumbstruck for a second then a vein popped on him too. "You're the one who suggested it!" Naruto simply looked more angry. "ONLY BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T SEEM TO WANT TO, YOU SCREWY LITTLE RAMEN-SHIMP!" Edward steamed at him and hit him in the face with his metal fist and he finally yelled.

"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING A BUG SO SO SMALL YOU CAN'T CRUSH IT!" he yelled angrily. Naruto recovered, angry and with blood on his face. "WHATEVER, MICRO-BASTARD!"

"DROPOUT NINJA!"

"GRAIN!"

"LOSER OF ALL LOSERS!"

"BITE-SIZE ALCHEMIST!"

Finally it ended when they punched each other in the face at the same exact time and knocked each other out. Just at that second Kakashi came it. "Umm, guys, the Hokage wants you..."

---------------

Naruto groaned, it had been a week since Ed had become a ninja, he'd been doing small fry D Ranked missions with Sakura and Edward, sometimes Alphonse. He wanted something good! "Granny Tsunade! Give me a mission worthy of all my strength and power! I want a challenge!" He gave he a looked filled with fire and deterimnation. Tsunade simply sweatdropped and yelled "BE QUIET!" Naruto shivered and Edward sighed. "What is the mission?"

"The mission was given by a friend of mine, he isn't here but the mission was left in his... will." Naruto and Edward looked at her in surprise. "YOU MEAN THIS IS FROM A DEAD GUY!" they both yelled, pointing at the 5th Hokage. The thinning peace of he temper snapped and she yelled at both the boys. "YES! DO YOU HAVE A FUCKING PROBLEM WITH THAT?" Scared, they hid behind their chairs, Edward and Naruto got up, only half working up the courage to. Tsunade continued. "Anyway, this is a "joint-mission" meaning it's a 2 part mission and you'll be paid double the normal C Rank Mission." Naruto grinned. "The more money, the more ramen!" Edward sighed. "Is that all you think about? Anyway what's our objective..."

Tsunade pulled out a small, leather bound notebook. "This was found hidden in Tashuza Kazuma's body, he is a famous owner and creator of the Shinigami Train Company, one of the most rich companies to ever build railroads, but lately there has been a lot of looting the cars, they say the hijackers have odd powers and dress darkly. That sounds like Homunculi, I want you to protect the train. The second part is to put this in the shrine when you get to the town the train is going to. You might want to stay in the town for a bit, this mission might be good for you Edward..." Edward gave an odd look at her temping smile. "The train pulls in at 1:30 at Konoha Station right outside the village. I'll see you two in a few days."

---------------

They both sighed as they climbed onto the train. It was going to suck and they both knew that, though they were happy they got out, but why were they targeting the trains? Were they just looking for trouble or were they just trying to catch their attention? What was the purpose of them raiding these trains? Was there a Philosopher's Stone in trains? Was there something else Orochimaru wanted?

These thoughts ran through Edward Elric as he and Naruto sat in the train, bored and slurping down ramen and food they couldn't afford and wasting money they didn't have. They had made a tab for the village of Konoha. Just as there was only about an hour until the ride was over-

BAM! A raspy voice spoke over the loudspeaker. "Humans, I advise you to go and protect yourself and cooperate with us. We are looking for something on the train and we advise you don't hide anything or anybody, any violators will be killed immediately." Edward and Naruto grinned. "Showtime!" Naruto exclaimed and they started to run toward the beginning to the train...

-----------

Wrath was partrolling Car C when he saw a blur elbow him in the chest and he felt his body go through the glass of a compartment. The blur that had attacked him had transformed into a boy with golden hair and blue eyes. He had that symbol, that goddamn symbol, on his forehead and he was obviously an enemy. Wrath clapped his hands and his arm took a hit at the boy, he was thrown back out of the compartment.

The scraggly homunculus grabbed a thick knife from his belt and stabbed it into the boy's body, but somethiing wasn't right, the material of the body was too thick... He felt human charka enter the atmosphere and realized he was witnessing the art of substitution. This had to be the boy who was accompanying the Elric boy, Uzumaki Naruto. He then saw the other end of the car shatter and a boy of 16 with long, blond, braided hair and golden eyes was wearing all black except for a red coat, a steel plated headband and a pair of white gloves. Blood gushed from his left arm and he huffed and clapped his hands and pressing his palms to the floor of the train, causing an alchemical reaction, a transmutation to be extact.

The transmutation was an elevator that formed a tower on the train and made both Ed amd Naruto go up to the top of the train. They were soon joined by the 2 homunculi. "Give us the damn book!" Envy said. "It shouldn't be in your hands!" Edward and Naruto breathed heavily and Edward grabbed Naruto, There was a possibility he'd get away with this!

"Later!" Edward yelled and he and Naruto threw themselves off the train, into the woods. THUD! Naruto landed on his head and Edward landed on his stomach. Naruto glared at him, Edward had saved him, but in a very stupid way. Edward stood up and so did Naruto. "Okay, let's get into-" Naruto wandered off and Edward sighed. This guy was too curious. After searching for a few minutes he caught him looking at an artifact, a sword in a monumental stone. He looked at it's hilt and realized it had a transmutation circle. He looked at it, surprised, it was vine-encrused and had stuff growing on it. It was old, he knew that. He looked under his feet and found a block of cement and a handle. He grabbed it and found a special basement. "Hey Naruto! Check this-" It broke for a five foot raidus. Naruto grabbed Edward and felt themselves go into a lone, cement room with a special deck on one end.

Naruto looked around the deserted room and Ed was reminded strongly of the place where he'd fought Cornello's Chimera. Naruto spied a small mark. "What's this?" he asked and touched it and a transmutation occurred, making chains and wrapping his arms in themselves abd then creating a cage that hung above the cement surface. He couldn't create hand symbols or even move. Several locks were automatically transmuted. "Ed!"

The cement turned to sand and a fuigure appeared from it, a boy in odd clothing and purple hair and a tattoo that said "love" on his forehead but with several black and red marks surrounding it. "So, Edward, Gaara here has decided to fight you, what do you think about that?" He looked back to see Envy and he clapped his hands hand put them to the sand, creating a transmutation which created a large spear out of the sand.

He looked to the boy, he had an an insane, menacing look to him, he couldn't be using his mind! He was drooling a bit and saying "KILL! KILL!" Edward felt several projectiles be thrown at him, the first two were a decent speed but the last one... it was definitely fast. He felt his spear break. This wasn't going to be good.
