-Kouta's POV-
I was waiting for my cousin Yuka at the top of a stairway that I used to enjoy looking at the nearby ocean from. I had been gone for about 7 years, the last time I was in Kamakura was during a festival, my father and little sister died soon after.
A girl walked up to me, "Kouta?" She had brown hair that was cut just above her shoulders.
"Do I know you?" I asked.
"Don't you remember me? I'm your cousin, Yuka!"
"Wow... it's been a long time, must've slipped my mind. How'd you find me?"
"You always liked the view from here..." She said, "Come on, let's go to the beach, we'll be meeting your guest their, right?"
"I think so..."
"Then let's go!" She grabbed my arm and started pulling off.
Oh that's right! I was expecting 2 boys from the country of Amestris to come stay with me for a few weeks or months... not really sure. When we arrived at the beach Yuka began talking about stuff we used to do there that I had forgotten. That's when I saw two blond men-looking-guys. One was a bit shorter than the other (An: Short Ed is awesome xD) and had his hair tied in a braid. He wore a red overcoat on top of a jacket with another black shirt underneath and black pants along with boots. The taller held his hair up putting it in a ponytail, he wore the same type of coat, except it was blue, he wore a tank-top and jeans underneath with sandals on his feet. Both had an odd eye color of yellow "Why do you always wear the hottest things when we go to warm places, Brother?" the taller one asked.
"This coat is special! I'm gonna take it off once we get to where we're staying, but I'm keeping it on so no one can snatch it. Why are you wearing yours?" The other one asked the taller one in an aggravated voice.
"Because you're wearing yours, Brother!"
"That must be them..." Yuka stated, "Hey! Are you the Elric brothers?" She asked.
"Yup!" The one in red said with a smile, "Edward Elric, the Fullmetal Alchemist!"
"My name is Alphonse." The one in blue said.
"My name is Yuka and this is Kouta."
"So you're the one we'll be staying with?" Ed said, he looked me up and down then scowled, "Looks a lot like Colonel Sarcasm.."
"Brother, he's not the Colonel anymore... " Al told the younger-looking one.
"He doesn't deserve the rank of Fuhrer..."
"Never thought they'd let such a short person into the military..." I stated. Ed shoved his right fist into my gut, it felt too hard to be an arm, but I didn't think anything of it.
"Cookie?" Yuka asked, holding a bag of cookies out to the brothers, each took one and took a bite, "Kouta?" she held the bag in front of me and I reached in, "Wait!"
"Huh?"
"Don't look ahead..." She said.
"Huh?" I looked the direction she was looking at and saw what she was staring at. A stark naked girl with pink hair. The brothers looked at her two, both started to blush.
"N-nyu..." She said.
"She's bleeding..." Edward said in realization. She started to run off but tripped on some litter, landing on her face. When she sat up she started crying.
"Are those horns coming from her head?" Al asked.
"Why are you..." She pushed me, supposedly so I wouldn't stare at her, "Are you hurt?"
"N-nyu?"
"Nyu? No... what are you doing here naked?"
"Nyu?"
"Here..." Alphonse took his coat off and put it around the girl's shoulders. "Maybe this injury on her head made her forget..."
"Most likely." Yuka said. "We can't just leave her out here like this, so let's take her to your place, Kouta, I'll lead."
"Oh... ok..." I said clumsily.
-Al's POV-
We soon arrived at Kouta's home, it honestly wasn't as warm as I thought it was, but it still wasn't cool enough to be wearing a big overcoat over layers of clothing like Brother. We walked in and bother Brother and I went to find a room to stay in while Kouta and Yuka spoke. I heard them scolding the girl, whom they had named Nyu, about peeing on the floor, I walked into the room and fair enough she was sitting on the floor in a puddle of pee, my coat in it as well. The girls went to take a bath while Brother (1) volunteered himself to clean my coat.
Kouta and I sat there cleaning the floor when he started talking to himself, "Started cleaning already... but that girl... she urinated on the floor at that age? I don't think it's about understanding our language... I think it's more like she's a baby before learning to speak."
"You're talking to yourself, Kouta..." I told him.
"Oh, sorry..." He stopped scrubbing and took out a shell. "She must be, like, 15... that's the same age Kanae would be right now..."
"Who?"
"My little sister... she died a few years ago..." He started to tear up.
"I'm sorry about that... Kouta, I'm pretty sure Brother would react the same way if I had died..."
"She'd be happy if she were here...living by the sea."
"Sorry we took so long!" Yuka and Nyu stood infront of us.
"You put my underwear on her?" Kouta asked, noticing she was in an undershirt and boxers.
"There was nothing else for her, I'll bring some of my clothes later." She noticed the shell in his hand, "That's a pretty shell."
"Oh this? It's a memoir... it's the last thing Kanae gave me before she died."
"I'm sorry for her."
"Ok, Al, you're coat's clean..." Brother had walked in. Just then Nyu took the shell out of Kouta's hand.
"What is it?"
She held it in front of herself and broke it. Kouta got mad and started swearing at her. "Get the hell out of here!" He shouted before throwing her to the ground. She sat their for a few seconds before standing up and running out of the room. I stood to follow her.
"Nyu, wait!" She ran outside, I continued following her. She stopped running and went into a walk. She stopped after we arrived at the beach, "Why are we here?"
She walked over to the water and started digging in the sand. "Nyu... what are you doing?"
"Nyuuu.."
"Nyu?" I didn't know if I should stop her or if I should let her continue, so I just let her go on. A wave soon swept us off our feet and we landed in the sand, I fell on top of Nyu on accident. That's when I heard my brother calling out to us.
"Watcha doing Al?"
"Brother?"
He helped me up and I helped Nyu up, "Where's Yuka and Kouta."
"Over there.." He pointed to the two and they ran over.
"What are you doing out here, Nyu!" Kouta scolded. He looked down at where she was digging and smiled, "You idiot... You're hungry right? You haven't eaten since then. Let's go home... I won't yell at you anymore."
She paused for a second as if deciding what to do then she stood and glomped him. Brother and I giggled. "I'll cook for you four tonight, all right?" Yuka said with a smile just before letting out a pained grunt and falling forward.
"Yuka!"
Brother stepped forward and began yelling, "Hey! What do you think you're-" he was cut off by a gun barrel being shoved into his stomach and fired.
"Brother!"
"Ooh! Those horns! This is actually the girl? So we get to kill these guys?"
When Kouta started to talk back at them he got himself knocked out, leaving me and Nyu, my brother slowly looked up at me, "Alphonse... take Nyu and run... keep her safe..." He said shakily.
"But-"
"Go!" He shouted, I nodded, grabbed her wrist and started running.
Brother... whatever you do... don't die! I kept saying in my head. Don't die! Don't die!
"Hold it!" The man with the one who shot Brother grabbed me.
"Wait! Don't hurt us! I told Brother I'd keep her safe!" I watched as the vicious one started beating on her. "Stop! Stop! STOP!" He smacked her to the ground with his gun.
"You kill her..."
"Huh?"
"I told you to kill her so do it!"
The man let go of me and walked over to her, "NYU!" I stared in horror as the man shot her. I started to tear up and placed my forehead on the ground, "Nyu..." The man started to phone in the guys he was working for but suddenly stopped. I looked up and saw the hole in his chest.
"Wha-?"
Suddenly and arm came from Nyu and ripped off the man's arm. "Is Nyu doing that?" Then the arm ripped his head off. "Eh!"
She stood and wiped some blood from her face, her expression showed she was blood thirsty. "The hell are you!" The man shouted before rapidly shooting at her, about 12(2) more arms came from Nyu and nearly hit the man who jumped back.
"Nyu..." I watched the arms attack the man until she picked up the gun of the dead soldier, pointing it at the man. He fell over after she started shooting and she pinned him with her arms. "What is she doing?"
She stood over him glaring down at him, "Do you find this fun?" She asked. The man grabbed his gun and as he pointed it up his arm was ripped off by one of the arms.
"How dare you... my arm!" He reached up the intact arm and she broke it, earning a shout of pain from the man. "You little! I'll remember you... I'll never forget your face! I'll come for you and kill you, bitch!"
One of the arms shoved two of its fingers into his eyes, "GAH! MY EYES! I'LL KILL YOU! I'LL KILL YOU! I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!" He shouted repeatedly.
"I'm bored..." She said. She prepared to kill him when she suddenly screamed in pain, "GAH!"
"Nyu!" I stood up, "Nyu, what's wrong?" She bent over on the ground beside him, moaning in pain. I walked over and placed a hand on her shoulder, "Nyu? Are you ok?"
She looked up, her blood thirst seemed to be gone, "Nyu?"
I gently hugged her, "Thank god... let's go home, all right?"
"Nyu!" She hugged back and I helped her up then looked down at the man, "Let's get out of here before he gets people to help kill us." We started running off, we ran through what looked like some sort of junk yard, we passed a girl sitting there, but I didn't really notice her until later.
When we got to the house Nyu grabbed my hand preventing me to go inside, "What is it?" She stared at me and I sat by her.
"Nyu?"
I smiled and patted the top of her head like I would a cat. "You sure sound like a cat, Nyu..."
"Nyuuuu..." She tucked her head under my arm.
"Are you cold?"
"Nyu..."
"I guess that alternate ego thing is the only way for you to talk, huh?" I looked up and saw Kouta coming towards us. "Hey!"
He looked at Nyu, "You're... alive...? I thought you were killed..."
"Is my brother all right?" I asked in a panicked tone.
"Yeah, the doctor is having him stay over night so they can clean out anything that got into the hole." He replied with a smile.
"What about Yuka?"
"They also said she was in the best condition out of us three..." He said before opening the door. Nyu grabbed his wrist and placed a few shells in his hand. "Sea shells?" When she started to walk away he called out, "Hey!" She turned and looked at him, "You're gonna catch a cold and die if you leave... so stay here for now, k?"
"Nyu..." She said before hugging him. The three of us went in and I went into my brother's and mine room to change out of my drenched clothes. I only had to put my shirt on when I heard a knock at the front door I went to answer it and saw Yuka.
"Yuka?"
"Alphonse! Erm... Is Kou...Is Kouta here?"
"Yeah he's in that room over there..." I said pointing the room he and Nyu were in. She went to find her cousin and I went to finish changing. I came back out to Yuka slamming her fist into Kouta's face. "Eh?"
"You really can't remember?" She asked him with tears in her eyes. "You really can't remember me?"
"...I'm sorry..." Kouta said, bowing his head. Yuka turned and ran out of the house. I found my self amused when Kouta sat in a ball with his face on the floor, mumbling about getting hit 3 times and girls running out on him 2 times. Nyu walked up to him.
"Nyu?"
"It's all your fault.."
