Yay I'm still watching the fma movie but this time with my anime oblivious friend she has almost no idea what's going on. Well on with the story.

Also I was bribed with salt sticks.

DISCLAIMER: I don't own fullmetal alchemist (sad story)

" well at any rate we need to get your automail fixed so come inside." Said the old woman dropping the subject of akane's and Ed's awkwardness.

She opened the door and waited for them to walk in. winry and akane were talking about something.

"no really, look…" she said as she grabbed the mangled thing that was Ed's automail.

" wow, but that thing must have been really strong, it sustained a car hitting him." Said akane in aw, then in remembrance of Ed's stupidity she glared at him.

Akane gave him an if looks could kill you'd be dead look, he recoiled form her.

She pulled out the wrench from winry's pocket and hit him with it.

"gah! You already hit me in central after the crash why hit me again? Haven't I been hit enough?" he asked indignantly.

Winry turned to akane." you hit him with a wrench? In central?" she asked akane.

"well ya, I had a metal pen and it was the first thing I could think of to hit him with when I transmuted it." She said a bit sheepishly.

Winry blinked.

" oh wow. Heh, it's like you're my double or something." She said smiling, not even noticing how alike they looked.

" yaaa, i… have to go talk with Alphonse… so I'll just be…" he tried to make an exit but was pulled back by two angry hands on the collar of his shirt.

" your not going anywhere." They said in unison.

"wha? Why?" he asked suffocating from the choke hole they had on him.

"because I need to fix your automail." Said winry.

" ya, and I want to see how it's done." Said akane

Ed was finally released by his child hood friend and his new friend. He slumped on the floor hoping they would give up in fixing it so soon, he was not in the mood to be in excruciating pain at the moment.

" get up." Said winry grabbing him by the collar and leading him to a chair. Apparently she was not happy with him, wonder why.

She detached his automail and set it down.

" wow is it really that detachable?" asked akane in aw.

" well it take a while to learn how to detach it right so it comes off really easy and quick." She said looking up from examining the auto mail.

" well I guess you can go ed, we don't really need you here anymore…actually let me get you a spare." She said walking over to the right side of the room and grabbing a spare automail. She walked over to Ed without warning shoved it in the port.

"gah! What is wrong with you?" he asked grabbing his shoulder where the port was located.

"nothing I just thought it would be easier if you didn't complain so… I just decided to do it when you least expected it." She said rather coolly as though nothing was wrong with that.

" your insane." He finished, getting up rubbing his sore arm.

Akane sniggered at how helpless he just was.

"Shut up! I don't need to hear it from you!" said Ed walkaing towards the door rubbing the automail port.

"no you need to rest go lie down." Said winry stopping him before he left.

"ah,, fine." Ed sighed. Knowing she would persist and he didn't want any fevers, so he reluctantly

Ed lied down on the sofa there and soon he was in deep sleep.

"well better get to work on this." She said

" can I watch? I've never been able to see this done up close." Said akane

"alright." Said winry sitting down at her (awesome) work table and set to work on the auto mail.

Akane watched for a while then winry turned to her.

"you want to try?" she asked.

Akane couldn't bevieve it.

"alright." she said getting into the seat as winry plopped her down on it.

Winry told her to do a few things and told her down… but it ended up with winry getting exasperated.

" I'm sorry! I'm not good with my hands." She stated as she broke yet another screw.

" then how are you an alchemist?" asked winry really confused.

"actually I've never had a problem with the circles because… well I've never had to use them." She said finally getting to the point.

"huh? How? Are you like Ed?" she asked.

" well kind of but I've noticed that ed has to put his hands together I just concentrate and touch it, after that it's regular alchemy." She stated to the oblivious winry. She hated having to explain things to people.

"heh?" was all that escaped winry's mouth a confused look on her face.

" hmmm, let me show you…" she said, akane closed her eyes and concentrated then opened them revealing pure white lined with light lavender the touched the screw parts and held them together, they appeared to magically conjoin.

Akane laughed at the stunned look on winry's face.

"I know it looks like magic." She said still laughing.

" sometime I'm not even sure myself if it's really alchemy. But after the touch it's regular alchemy so I guess it is." She said giving winry one of her famous smiles.

" wow." Was all the stunned winry could say as she slumped onto the workbench.

'And it's a curse' she thought as she still smiled at winry. On the inside she didn't smile anymore, ever, all the times she smiled at Edward and Alphonse, to the colonel, the fuehrer, she didn't mean it once.

At that moment her sadness was portrayed in her eyes that had returned to their original color.

Winry saw it. Her face was downcast as she looked at nothing in particular just thinking.

'That's the same face Ed makes, when nothing I right and he doesn't want me to worry.' She thought thinking about the sleeping boy on the couch and the face akane just made. Even for a second winry knew that face she had seen so many times from Ed.

Akane saw the look on her face.

"whats wrong winry?" she said trying to look as thought she had no idea… in reality she was kind of clueless but had one idea of what it was.

'maybe she saw though. No that would never happen… I'm too carful for that to happen.' She thought to herself, deciding that she was careless but not that much. She shook her head as though that would knock some sense into her. Then the same look played across her features.

Winry caught it again.

She will never tell me what's on her mind… not for real… Ed never did.' She thought to herself.

" it's getting to quiet in here isn't it winry?" asked akane that smile replacing her earlier expression.

"ya." She said forcing a smile on her face.

Akane smiled back.

She turned around and concentrated opening her eyes to reveal the white lined with light lavender and her put her hand over the busted automail. It fixed itself… well she fixed it with alchemy.

"why didn't you do that before?" asked winry.

" well the thought never came to me that I could fix it. I just thought that I might permanently mess it up or something but it looks okay I guess." Said akane holding up the automail and swinging it in front of her the fingers and wrist of it bending back and fourth.

Winry took the automail. She inspected it.

"wow." Was once again all her vocabulary was reduced to.

" you made it right, it looks like I made it." She said holding the automail in her hands.

" you think so?" asked akane.

" I just did it from what I remember it looking like… I think yours looked better though… It will probably work better too." She said casually to winry.

"mmm, wait, that's…no… who stole the… Al did it… he stole the cookies." Said Ed turning around in his sleep.

Akane and winry looked at each other and almost laughed at how stupid that was.

" lets go before we wake him." Said akane pulling winry into the hall and shutting the door behind them.

They bumped into the old woman, who akane had learned her name was pinako and she was winry's grandmother, and Ed and Al's guardian.

"dinner." She said

" is Ed coming?" she asked them. They looked at each other and winry laughed.

"no… because Al stole the cookies." Said akane trying hard not to laugh.

Winry couldn't help it anymore and she fell on the floor tears squeezing themselves out of her eyes as she laughed.

"c…come… on winry… i…it's not… it's not that funny!" said akane laughing.

They started gasping for air as they laughed clutching their sides finally their laughing began to cease as pinako waited patiently for them to stop laughing their brains out on something that made no sense.

Finally they stopped and winry rubbed the tears from her eyes and akane did the same.

They got up and winry led akane to the kitchen pinako right behind them.

They sat down at the table just as Al walked in. he sat down and looked at their flushed faces.

"did something happen that I should know about? You two look like you've been crying hard about something." Said al completely oblivious to the fact they had been stifling giggles.

Akane dashed out of the room, winry right behind her.

"looks like were skipping tonight." Said winry as they ran into a random room and akane tripped over something.

Winry saw it and stepped over it, but akane who thought it was a trick of being in the dark tripped over a big warm fuzzy squishy thing.

Winry flicked on the lights and walked over to the thing as akane rolled off and saw it was the dog that was outside earlier.

"awww, den what are you doing here?" said winry getting down on her knees to ruffle the dog's ears, but he got up and swiftly made his exit.

"hmmm, looks like den doesn't like it when people trip on him." Mused winry.

" well I would think not, also sorry about that remember the bed with hands thing?" akane stated and asked.

" ya, but if I recall you use your feet to run not your hands." Said winry smirking at akane's idiotic statement.

"touché." Said akane as winry helped her up off the ground.

"I wonder if Ed's awake." Said akane looking at the door,

" ya I wonder too… let's go check maybe he might say something stupid again." Said winry an evil smile playing across her face.

Ed opened his eyes to find himself in a dark room. Remembering were he was he looked around and got up off the couch. He walked over ot the door rubbing his eyes and opened it he began to walk down the hall when he heard a thump and giggling and laughing. Ed walked over to the place when den walked out of the room.

Xxx

" come on lets go." Said akane pulling winry's hand.

Winry started to giggle at what Ed had said in his sleep earlier.

" what cha guys doin? Asked Ed quirking his eyebrow on how they were sneaking right past him not even noticing he was there. They jumped.

"oh, Ed… uh, nothing much… just…" akane said looking to winry for help.

"I was showing akane the house." Said winry giving Ed her biggest smile.

"right." He said non-believingly.

" no really she was!!" piped up akane.

"okay I believe you." Said Ed throwing up his hands deciding he wasn't going to get anything out of them.

Akane put one of her hands behind her back and winry slapped it discreetly. They had made sure he didn't catch them, and they couldn't be happier.

" oh Ed akane and I fixed your automail." Akane elbowed her and mouthed the words 'you did'. Winry stared at her blankly. Akane taking the hint she didn't understand spoke up.

"no, really winry fixed it, I just broke a few screws when she tried to teach me." Said akane shrugging.

"great, I guess we can leave tomorrow if we get it on today." Said Ed delighted in this news.

" wait your leaving tomorrow?" asked winry stricken at how they were just going to come and go like that.

" ya, I'll go tell al so we can get ready to leave tomorrow morning." He said delighted walking towards the kitchen.

Winry sighed. Akane looked at her.

"whats wrong?" she asked.

"no nothing, it's… nothing." She said at first her expression was sad but when she looked at akane she forced a smile on her face to reassure her she was fine.

Akane saw her smile, but she knew it was fake. ' if she doesn't want to tell me now she will later.' She thought.

" oh alright." Said akane beaming back at winry. Winry checked a clock that was nearby and gasped.

"what? Whats wrong now?" asked akane a littled panicked at the gasp winry made.

" well if Ed's gonna get his automail in and ready for tomorrow we better do it now." Said winry gesturing for akane to follow her as they began to head into the kitchen.

"Ed come on we have to get the automail pu tin if oyu want to be ready for tomorrow." Said winry walking in and pulling Ed out of his chair and down the hall, akane right behind them.

She pushed Ed down on a chair, and akane flicked on the lights. Winry picked up the fixed automail and with one hand took off Ed's spare. Then she swiftly shoved in the newly fixed automail into the socket.

Ed cringed and bit his lip.

"damn it winry! I told you to warn me!" said ed indignantly.

"ah, ah, ah, you need to sleep again." Said winry standing him up and pushing him down on the sofa were he was for about an hour to half an hour before.

" nighty night." Said winry cheerfully.

Her and akane left the room, closing the door behind them they walked down a hall and up a flight of stairs. Winry led her down a hall and opened a door.

"this is your room." She said pointing in the room.

" alright, good night I guess. I have a feeling Ed's gonna want to get up early tomorrow." Said akane a little sullen.

"right… well good night." Said winry walking into the room next to akane's.

Akane walked into the room and flopped on the bed, she fell asleep fast from an eventful day.
