Who Needs a Brother Like You?

Chapter Ten – The Third Game Begins

"Alphonse..." Edward weakly called for his stunned brother.

"Brother!" Alphonse knew right away something was wrong with his Brother. "Ed...Edward!" Winry screamed and tried running at him but Armstrong jerked her back. "No, something isn't right!"

"You see those people Edward? Those are the people who made your life terrible. They want you dead. Alphonse doesn't love you anymore. Don't you remember what your brother said to you?" Evillie leaned close to his ear but spoke loud enough for the others to hear.

Edward opened his mouth like he was reciting some type of chant "I hate Brother because of what he did to me..."

"Brother! That's not true!" Alphonse yelled. He stood up and charged at them but Envy jumped into the air and pushed him back with a hard punch. This punch was so strong that it threw Alphonse into the ground and broke his weapon.

"You're lying to me! Stop lying to me!" Edward screamed holding his ears and falling to the ground. "I heard everything you had to say! Those other mean people said things too! I can't remember them...but I know!"

Winry and Armstrong gasped. Winry felt her soul break "He doesn't know who we are? What did you do to him?!" she screamed even louder than what she did before.

Alphonse starred at him. That fire that he used to have...it just wasn't there anymore. "We're all we've got...I thought that we agreed we wouldn't do anything to pull us apart..." Alphonse felt like crying. He wished he could cry...just to show to his brother how much he cared.

"Your words mean nothing to him now. The only words he cares about is what you said about him behind that door."

Alphonse stood up trying to keep his eyes on his brother. "How dare you monsters rip the bond of these two brothers apart!" Armstrong yelled. Envy laughed, "What bond? There never was a bond to begin with! Alphonse said what he thinks of his brother!"

"Shut up! You know very well that you said all those lies!" he spat back.

Edward gasped and uncovered his ears. "What are you trying to s-say?"

Lust caught on very quickly. Edward was starting to come back to reality. Maybe it had been a bad idea to bring him after all. "Evillie...it's about time I think we tell them now."

Evillie looked back at her and nodded, "Alphonse Elric, Winry Rockbell, Major Alex Louis Armstrong...when the rest of your little group returns from wherever they have gone off to tell them this. You are all a part of the third and final game of Hide and Go Seek. If you can find us you can have Edward back memories and all."

Edward glared at them. They were treating him as if he were some type of reward! Not saying anything he kept his mouth closed and turned his back on his brother. "Bother! Wait! You don't believe them do you? You know I would never say-!"

"Shut up!" Edward screamed "I'm going along with this brother! If you really do care about me...you'll find me! But if you don't...I'll know that I'm not wanted anymore..."

Winry cried Edward's name, desperately trying to reach for him but the Major kept holding her back. Alphonse went into a deep shock not knowing what else to say. They were brothers! He knew what the homunculi were really like!…Or did he? That girl must have deleted everything thing he possibly knew about them from his brain.

"Edward…you're all I got left! Mom and Dad are both gone...but you...you're right in front of me! Why? Why are you doing this? You know I would never say anything like that about you! Nor would the Major…and Winry…yeah you don't get along with the Colonel sometimes but you know he would never really talk about you behind your back!"

"The Colonel?" he froze. The image of a very familiar man flashed through his mind. "Colonel…Idiot?" he asked.

Alphonse nodded quickly, "Are you finally starting to remember?!"

"That's enough! Envy retrieve Edward! We're leaving now!" Lust ordered. Envy rolled his eyes and looked at him "Come on pipsqueak visiting time is over!" he yelled.

Edward's heart began to race. He wanted to know more about these people. "No! I want to hear what he has to sahh-!"

Instantly, Envy's foot went hurling into Edward's stomach. His eyes died completely and his face met the cold road. "No one tells me no, especially not a pipsqueak like you!"

Alphonse screamed his brother's name and with the last of his energy charged one more time. This time Evillie stepped it. "Tag…you're it!" she punched him back and a flash of light blinded him.

He felt himself stumble back and hit the ground at full force. When he opened his eyes he saw that his world had been torn upside down. The girl and Edward were the only two in front of him.

"What's...what is this?!" he tried raising himself to the ground but his legs failed him. They were both walking away and heading towards thick darkness. "Brother! Don't go with her! Please!" Alphonse desperately tried standing up and reaching for him. Edward stopped right at the edge of the shadows and slightly turned his head towards him. "Stop calling me brother! Because you are no brother of mine!" With that everything around him died along with his brother and strange new foe along with him.

I've decided to end the chapter here...I'm kinda having a short writers block. I just simply don't know what to put in between the major events...but don't worry that won't slow me down! Also if the ending was confusion...sorry...you'll know what happened next chapter.
