Al woke to thunder, the fierce rumble shaking him to the core of his small body. Not used to such frightening sensations, he climbed hurriedly out of bed and peeked into Ed's room. A flash of lightning illuminated the room, revealing b lankets that had been kicked off the bed and his older brother fast asleep on his back, his left hand up under his tank top and resting on his stomach. Al picked up one of the discarded blankets and climbed into the bed next to his big brother, pulling the blanket over the both of them.

When the lightning finally stopped, Al was up and out of the room so fast Ed rolled off the bed.

"Huh? Jeez, Al. I know you're afraid of thunderstorms. You don't have to try to hide it."

"Oh, um, right. OK!" Al headed for the bathroom.

Ed shook his head and pulled on his clothes, packing the rest into his suitcase in preparation for the train ride home. Finally they were going back to Risembool after six years in the military.

Meanwhile

"Reporting, Sir!" Havoc stood in line next to Hawkeye, Breda, Fuery and Falman and started puffing frantically on his cigarette. Roy's eye twitched in irritation.

"Having a panic attack, lieutenant?"

"Well, not a panic attack, persay..."

Roy snatched the cigarette out of Havoc's mouth and incinerated it despite Havoc's yell of protest and then sniffling and covering up his face with his hands.

"Oh shut up." Roy snapped, taking his place in front of his line of subordinates.

"I've called you all here to formally inform you of the FullMetal Alchemist's resignation from our military orginization." Roy saluted and all of the men and women presetn in his office saluted in return, some with slightly misty eyes. As their hands dropped back down to their sides, Breda somewhat ruined the feeling.

"Hey Boss, why'd you call us all here when we all took him out to dinner last night because he was resigning?"

Roy cleared his throat before bluntly explaining "Because I figured at least some of you were too drunk to remember."

Fuery blushed bright red and hurried back to his office.

A few minutes later, Roy smelled a strong smoky smell coming from Riza's office. He frowned and went to investigate.

"Lt. Hawkeye? What are you burning in here?"

She waved to a stick of incense in a bowl on her desk.

"Incense, Sir. For bad odors."

Meanwhile

Al swung their luggage up into the overhead compartment and then went across the aisle to sit down. Ed looked over at him.

"Hey Al, what are you doing way over there?"

"Oh, you know...Giving you room to sleep."

"It's OK, come on over here, Little Brother."

"Er, um, no that's OK."

"Al, is something wrong? Is it something I did?"

"No Brother! I just..."

Ed jumped up and came to push his face into Al's.

"What is it? What's wrong?"

"Nothing!" Al covered his nose and mouth.

"What!" Ed grabbed his hands, pinning them behind Al's back and leaning closer.

"Agggg! No, please!"

"Tell me why you're trying to get away from me!"

"B-because-"

"Why?"

"Because-"

"Why!"

"Well because-"

"WHY?"

"BECAUSE

"Bad odor, Lt.?"

"Sir, your breath

"YOUR BREATH

smells like pork left out in the sun to rot."

SMELLS LIKE PORK LEFT IN THE SUN TO ROT!"

"What?"

What?"

"Why didn't you tell me, Hawkeye?"

"Why didn't you tell me, Al?"

"Damn weirdo Chinese food from last night."

"Damn weirdo Chinese food from last night! The colonel has terrible taste in restaurants!"

"What I get for trying to pick a place Edward would like."
