When we arrived at the area where Scar was last spotted, Ed and Al decided that it would be safer if I would stay in Al's armor. I didn't want to start an argument, so I agreed to it. After about a half hour of being inside the armor, I heard Ed arguing with a girl that I assumed to be the one Al was talking about.
"Let me out Al." I say. "Sorry." Al replies then he opens the armor. I fall out. "I kept bumping my head." I say. It really was not comfortable in there. "Excuse me who is this women Alphonse?!" The girl says. I look at her. She starts crying and she asks Al how he could do this to her. I'm confused. "No. It's not like that she's just a friend." Al tells the girl.
"Hey May, you shouldn't go running off like that." A voice from outside the room says. A man enters, he gasps. "The Elric Brothers are here." "Who's that?" Ed asks. "Right, my face. I'm Doctor Marcoh." The man removes his hood. "What? Doctor Marcoh?" Al says. "But you look… What happened?" Ed says. "Why don't you tell me what you're doing here first?" Doctor Marcoh replies.
Another man comes into the room, he gasps and shouts: "The Elric Brothers are here?!" "And who are you?" Ed asks him. "Don't act like you don't know me. How could you have forgotten me?" He says and mentions that he is from Youswell. "Rather easily. Are you sure we've actually met?" Ed replies. I wonder if Ed has actually forgotten who this man is or if he is just trying to annoy him. "How cruel! And after you destroyed my life!" The man reminds Ed that it was his fault that he lost his job and suffered because of it. He wants revenge.
The girl speaks suddenly. "It's not right. I'll never let a thieving hussy like you take him from me!" Huh? Did she really just say what I thought she did? "Did you just call me a hussy? I ask. "I already told you, she's just a childhood friend." Al tells the girl. "You should think about something else, like alchestry." Ed says. The man shouts something at Ed. "Yeah how sad, life is hard. Trust me, I know how you feel." Ed replies. The man shouts at him again.
Later, after the man has calmed down Doctor Marcoh shows Ed a book that might help Al and him. But he says that they need Scar to help decipher it. "What do we need him for?!" Ed shouts. We hear a loud noise somewhere that's not too far from where we are and we all gasp. Ed tells us to stay here and hide. He says that he and Al will find out what's going on. "So, Scar's here." I say. I decide to sneak away and follow them.
I've been watching Ed and Al fight Scar for a few minutes. It's getting intense, and I feel nervous. I decide to interfere. "Don't hurt them!" I yell. Ed looks at me. He and Al stop fighting Scar. "What are you doing here, idiot?!" Ed yells at me. I step forward, but then stop when I feel a hand on my shoulder. "That's close enough." Major Miles says. "You brought her here, major?" Ed asks. Major Miles holds a gun on Scar. He tells Ed and Al that he can take from here. I see this as a chance for me to face Scar. I step closer to him. "Winry!" Al calls. "Stop, Winry. Stay back." Ed warns me. "Let me go. It's alright." I tell them, in a serious tone. I need to do this and they can't stop me. "It couldn't be any less alright." Ed says, sounding angry. "Miss, you need to stay back." Major Miles says. "Just let me. Please understand you have to let me talk to him. I need to, Ed." I say. Ed and Al let me go. "Why? Why did you kill my mother and father?" I ask Scar. "There's nothing I can say that won't sound like an excuse. Nothing can change the fact that I am responsible for their deaths. I killed them." I wait for him to say more.
