Ohayou gozaimasu!

Welcome to chapter 2 of my first FMA fanfiction, booyah! It took me a while to write this. Well, two days to be exact. I had to rewrite it because I wasn't happy with how it turned out. I actually planned to have Ciela fight against Gluttony, but then decided that wouldn't be right in the 2nd chapter so I made her meet someone else!

Thanks for the reviews! I'm sorry for the confusing quotation marks last time, that happened because I forgot to change OpenOffice from my native language to English. Now that I fixed that that problem should be solved

Again, I'm not a native English speaker. I'm sorry in advance for any mistakes. I'm a grammar nazi so annoying mistakes like you're/your etc won't happen here, heh.

If you have any suggestions or questions, please review and let me know? I didn't expect so many to read this since I never got 6 reviews in such a short time, heh.

Disclaimer: I don't own Fullmetal Alchemist because if I did Greed would have had the voice of my favorite voice actor (like he did in the first Season). I own the OC's (like Ciela) though.

Chapter 2: Freezing

"Oi!", I heard a voice calling out for me. I tried to raise my hand to reach out, but my arm was so goddamn heavy.

"Did you kill her?" A female voice asked. She didn't sound too nice.

"I didn't kill anyone this time!", the other voice answered. It sounded somewhat like the voice of a child. And it sounded familiar and again I couldn't quite put my finger on it.

My strength came back and as I slowly sat up my eyes met a pair of purple eyes.

Was I dreaming? Was this really Envy? The Envy from Fullmetal Alchemist? There was no mistaking it was him.

He opened his mouth to answer her, not facing me anymore. He couldn't have seen I was awake, yet his words made me feel somewhat uneasy.

"She was already dead when I got here. Woo, must've been dead for some time, she's cold as fuck." I closed my eyes in an attempt to hide the fact that I had woken up.

"Man, that's annoying. Gluttony doesn't eat corpses once they're all cold." he then added.

"Just leave her here. It's none of our business anyways. There's no helping it, we can't use someone who's dead already."

Envy seemed to agree, because I heard him get up and after a while their steps less noisy and I figured they had left.

But why in the world did he say I was dead? I did feel cold, I was freezing in fact, but there was no way in hell I was as cold as someone who's been dead for a while. When I was sure there had left I opened my eyes again and slowly sat up.

I tried to figure out where I was, but I had no idea. It seemed I was somewhere in the underground. I remembered that there were shafts under Central City and basically everywhere, giving Pride the possibility to move. Well actually it was a huge transmutation circle underneath Amestris.

I remembered that I should miss a limb or two and searched for missing pieces on my body. My arms and legs were fine. I didn't feel any pain either, so my organs seemed to be alright, too.

But the Truth said I had to pay for it, right? It granted me my wish to either find a reason to stay alive or to die, so what did I pay with? I started walking along a shaft I hoped would lead to an exit. Down here it was dark and cold. So cold.

After walking for what felt like twenty minutes straight, I noticed burbling of water a few feet away from me. I sighed and went on, until some weird noise distracted me.

"Huh?" I made and turned around.

The burbling of water had died down, but that wasn't what irritated me. It was frozen. All the water had turned into ice and I didn't understand how that happened. A single drop made its way down the stown wall next to me. I lifted my arm tried to catch it with my finger, but as I got closer to it, it stopped midair and turned into an icicle.

"What the hell.." I murmured confused.

Did the cold air in this shaft cause the water to freeze or was it my doing?

Then it dawned on me.. could it be? I didn't lose any limbs but.. my warmth? Was that even possible? Well, Edward lost his leg (and his arm when saving his brother), Al lost his entire body, Izumi (Edward's and Al's Sensei) lost some of her organs andRoy (after being forced through the gate) lost his sight. So.. with all that, was it really possible for me to lose my warmth? I didn't know much about the Truth either (who knew the truth about the Truth anyway?) so I figured it was a possibility.

Shrugging I continued my search for a way out of this shaft and was surprised to find something like a stairway not too far away. It seemed to belong to a house that had a connection to the shafts. Slowly and trying not to make any noise I went up the stairs, begging that no one was inside the house so that I could sneak outside.

The house was indeed empty and it looked like it's been forever since it's been in use. Everything was covered in dust. I left the house through the backdoor and found myself in a small alley. I breathed in and exhaled slowly, enjoying the fresh air filling my lungs. It had been quite smelly down in the shafts after all. So this was Amestris, Central City, hopefully.

I left the side road trying to figure out where to go, I didn't know anyone after all. Well, sooner or later I'd (hopefully) run into one of my favorite characters. The only problem was that most of them weren't exactly people you wanted to meet at the wrong time. I was drawn to psychopathic and sadistic people. Anyway - BAM!

I ran right into something very tall and very hard and fell to the ground, right into a puddle. "Ah!" the huge thing above me exclaimed. "Gomenasai! I didn't see you, hey, are you hurt?" I looked up into the non-existing eyes of a huge armor. Alphonse Elric.

I shook my head no. "I'm fine, don't worry." I held out his hand to help me up but he frooze right before I came to grab it.

"You're bleeding!" He sounded beyond worried and guilty. I noticed a scratch on my left knee that was bleeding slightly, but it wasn't anything serious. I was just about to say that it was nothing when he noticed something I didn't so far.

"What.." he said, sounding breathless and confused.

I looked down and realized that the puddle I fell into was completely frozen and so was the blood on my knee.

"Al, what are you doing over there! Found a kitten again? I told you already, we ain't gonna take a kitten with us!" another voice called out. I froze in place (or I really did if you know what I mean?).

"Gomenne, Nii-san. I just saw something that was a little-"

His older (but shorter) brother Edward Elric interrupted him. "WHO ARE YOU CALLING SO LITTLE YOU CAN'T FIND THEM AMONG ANTS?!" He was furious.

"Calm down, Nii-san. Look." He pointed at me. Ed calmed down and got closer, standing next to his younger (but way taller, especially in his armor, brother).

"So what?" Ed then asked, seemingly confused. "It's not a kitten but a girl in a frozen puddle? I know I said no kittens but I didn't mean for you to take anything else home instead."

"Nii-san, it's spring. There's no way a puddle would freeze." If he could have raised an eyebrow, he would have, I was sure of that.

Ed seemed to concentrate for a minute, then he sighed. "Alright. I don't get it. What do you mean, Al?"

"I'm saying that this is impossible. She fell down and then suddenly the puddle froze." Al explained.

"So you're saying she did that?" He sounded like what he asked was completely ridiculous.

"Hey!" I finally said, getting up. "Don't act like I'm some kitten that doesn't understand what you guys are saying. I'm a person."

"Sorry, didn't mean to upset you or anything." Ed stated. "So lets get over with this already, I'm tired of walking around the whole day. Did you do that?" He pointed at the puddle.

I sighed and shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe, I guess so."

That confused Ed and Al even more. "And how did you do that?" Both of them asked at the same time.

I shook my head. "How would I know? I'm kinda cold, you know? So maybe that's why?" I held my hand up and breathed on it, my breath freezing in the air. Ed did the same, but his breath wasn't freezing. Then he reached out with his flesh arm, touching my hand.

"Woah! You're so cold it feels wrong!" he nearly screamed. "Are you sure you're not dead?"

That made me laugh a bit. "That's not the first time someone called me dead after they touched me.." I thought of Envy, obviously. Then I realized that maybe I shouldn't notice him. I didn't know if this world followed along the plot of Fullmetal Alchemist or not.

I began to feel a bit funny. Well it couldn't be healthy to be so cold to be able to freeze water just by touching it or passing by, could it? Ed and Al where discussing how it was possible for me to be a living refrigerator. I opened my mouth to tell them I didn't feel too good when everything began to spin. My sight went blank and so did my brain, surrounding me in nothingness.

I fainted.

So how did I do this time? On a scale from 1 to 10 (1 being horrible and 10 being perfect)?

I'm guessing you realized that I didn't watch the dubbed version of FMA, therefor I included a few japanese words. Gomenne and Gomenasai meaning Sorry and I'm sorry, and Nii-san means Big Brother. That should be it. ;)

So, review, maybe? I love reviews, they make me feel like I didn't bore (or annoy) the crap out of you with this chapter.

Much love!
