Chapter 16 I know it's getting boring but don't worry I'm bored too… so try to get enthusiastic.

Disclaimer: why? Why, don't I own it? You tell me… because I don't know oO

She sighed.

Then she stopped moving. Whoa…. Is it me or is the world spinning?

Then a knock came at the door.

"akane? You okay? It's like noon and you haven't come out…." Said a concerned Ed, who with his impulsive mind thought her had die or had been kidnapped.

Why does he have such… timing? She thought sighing again.

Ed pressed his ear to the door, he was just about to bash in the door when akane opened it.

"Ed? Where you about to bash in my door?" she said knowingly seeing as he was in bashing pose, with his automail arm ready for door breaking.

"n… no. it's just my arm is sore.. it might rain you know?" he said jumpily getting out of the bash pose and grabbing his "sore" arm.

"uh huh… sure." She said.

"you ready?" he asked thinking she looked like she had been up for hours, not sleeping in having a nightmare.

"huh? For what?" she asked completely oblivious to what he was asking.

"are you ready to go to the doctor? Mustang told me to take you to avoid… what well.. yesterday." He finished quite awkwardly.

"what?! No! you cant catch me!" she yelled attempting to dive past him but he moved his automail arm against the door frame stopping her in her tracks.

She crumpled.

"come on." He said with a slight grunt as he picked her up and put her over his shoulder, the way you would when you just killed a deer.

"Edward Elric! Put me down, or so help me…" she yelled pounding him in the back and attracting insane attention.

"shut up! I don't want to go anymore than you." He said flatly carrying her out the door and down the street.

"put me down." she said as they neared the hospital.

"fine." He said walking into the hospital and droping her right into a chair, that she instantly tried to escape but Ed pushed her back down.

"staaaaay." He said slowly.

"but!... but!" she wined.

"no…. sit." He said, goiving her a sad look he used on mustang to make him feel guilty.

It worked.

mmmmm. Alright." She said defeated, deflating the second the doctor came in with his huge needle.

"what? What did she do now?" he asked needle in hand.

Akane whimpered. This needle was HUGE!

"hold up doc, we just need to get her checked out because she passed out in mid sentence. " said Ed nervous because of the huge needle in front of him, it looked like it was dripping with knock out juice. A/N I'm to retarded to remember the name.. so live with it .

"oh… alright.. you wait here. You come with me." He said pointing at Ed then akane.

He grabbed akane's hand and led her to the examination room.

In there he checked her heart beat, blood pressure, and reflexes… and other stuff that they check at the doctors.

"well, you'll be fine but I have a question." He said put his little tools on the rolly table.

"shoot." Said akane sitting on the bed.

"when was the last time you drank water?" he asked looking her in the eyes, with that knowing look that she knew she couldn't lie to. He would know.

"um… once…. In the past… I don't know uh… three days?" she said nervously picking at her wound that was becoming itchy.

"what?" he yelled nearly losing his balance.

"ya… he, he, he." She laughed nervously.

"okay, you need to drink lots of water, and your under a lot of stress… no work for a week, no missions, paper work, anything got it?" he said writing it on a paper.

"yup. I'll be sure to do that." She lied, she had no intention of skipping work, she had too much to do, reports to write, colonels to annoy the hell out of. Way too much to do.

"okay, your free to go, so do as I say and you'll be fine.

"I'm already fine!" she said walking down the hall leaving him in his room.

"no your not!" he yelled down the hall as akane scampered down the hall to find Ed to get out of there.

"hey." She said getting really close to his face. He was staring blankly.. or as blankly as you can when your having a stare down with a guy drinking milk.

"Ed lets go." She said pulling him by the arm out the door.

"whoa! When did you get here?" he asked confused.

"l;ike five seconds ago, catch up.' she said pulling him almost out of the parking lot when he stopped.

"wait, so what did the doctor say?" he asked stopping her in the middle of the parking lot.

"huh? Oh he said I was healthy as a horse.. lets go." She said, lying…. Again.

"no really." he said pulling on her arm and stopping her from going any further.

"alright.. he said drink more water and I'll be good…. Happy?" she said only giving him half of the information.

" I guess that's better than nothing." He said sighing.

Akane smiled. "see? Now lets get to work, I have a week of paper work to do." She said unnaturally happy. She had made a bet with the doctor… in her mind, that she would be able to do all her work and more without skipping a beat.

"alright." Ed shrugged following her to the office. But he was not prepared for when akane began running to the office, leaving him in a cloud of dust as she yelled. "race ya!"

" I cant believe someone with that much energy would pass out so.. what am I saying?? I've done that… even though…" Ed stopped, he noticed he was talking to himself and it looked strange. He made a mental note not to do that anymore.

Ed began his chase for akane. But not before he had to go through a huge crown full of… well girls… lets just say it was not pleasant.

He finally came out of the mob of girls and women alike. Gasping for air he clutched his chest.

"so… many… fan girls…" he gasped, losing sight of the reason he went in that hell hole.

Then remembering he stood up straight attentive looking for a glimpse of brunet in a sea of blond and black.

He shrugged figuring she wasn't there and probably already annoying the colonel without him.

He walked the long way back to the HQ were he had been in the morning before going to pick up akane.

Finally he reached it feeling the pain in his automail port.

"it's gonna rain." He mumbled. But then he felt something different about this pain… it felt different… it felt…. Distant.

"probably just means it wont rain till later." He muttered calming his rising suspicions that the bee sting he had gotten on his way through the crown wasn't a bee sting at all.

He shuddered not wanting to think if it was a bee sting or not.. or worse, what was it if it wasn't a bee sting?

He shook his head violently getting the unsettling thought out of his head.

He walked up to the gate, the guard knew his face well but he stopped him.

"sorry Ed I cant let you in until I see your watch." He said his voice solemn.

"why? Whats going on that I don't know?" he asked pulling the watch out of his pocket.

"the alchemists are rebelling." He said curtly refusing to say anymore than that saying it would be better if he didn't know.

But that there made something clear, he did not trust Ed at the moment. Ed was a loyal alchemist ya, but the rebels were also supposed loyal and valuable assets, were trying to reek havoc with the power that was meant for the people.

" I understand." He said what the gate man said fluttering rapidly in circles inside his head. It bothered him, it made him feel uneasy. He wondered how long this had been going on, or if it was an all of a sudden sort of thing.

He walked up the steps into the HQ.

"damn."
