Oil and Water
Riza was beginning to get concerned. Her colonel had spent the last three hours studying every inch of the alley they had arrived in. She wasn't sure what he had come up with so far, but unless he had found a way to get them back, they were going to have to find some place to spend the night. And that posed a number of problems that she really didn't want to face.
"I'm not sure I can do anything without more research, Hawkeye. There are barely any traces of the array here, and I'm not sure what went wrong with it in the first place." He sighed. "I have my original plans for the array, but I doubt I can figure out what went wrong from my notes alone. I'm sorry, Hawkeye."
"Sir?"
Mustang sighed again. "I shouldn't have--"
They both froze at the sound of footsteps on the pavement. Mustang slipped on his gloves as her fingers inched towards her gun. They waited.
"Damn it, Knott, you've lost him."
"You're the one who lost him. Mister Malfoy wants to know where their headquarters is sooner rather than later, and we both know that the red headed muggle lovers are in on it."
Mustang nodded, and they took positions on either side of the alley. Two figures in odd robes appeared at the entrance.
"I still think it's the other alley. Hurry up. I want to get away from all these muggles as soon as possible."
Both men were holding sticks out in front of in front of them. Riza frowned. What in the world did they think they were doing? The taller one pointed his stick at the far end of the alley. Mustang shifted further into the shadows, and she heard the sound of cloth against the wall.
So did the other two men.
"Lumos!"
A silvery light filled the alley, and Hawkeye could now clearly see the two men. One pointed his stick at Roy, yelling, "Incendio!"
A jet a flame came barreling at them. Roy snapped. The two fires came together explosively, forcing Riza to shield her eyes. Something was wrong here. Her body felt funny and tingly. She could hear other voices now, yelling, but the world was going black again, and she couldn't fight the tide of darkness.
