fourteen years later

Ed had dissaperd five years ago no one is sure how or why. Al had complete faith in him that he didnt just run off cause Ed was always so angry at their own father for doing that to his family. Winnry however was convinced that he had run away she couldn't even bare to even look at Elsa to to her resemblance to her father. So all of Winnry's anger was trown at teenage Elsa.

"Go back to your room young lady!" Winnry yelled at her daughter

"Why? what did i do?" the teenager repliyed angrily

"Just Go!"

"i know why! you just hate me! you cant stand it that you have a second child! ever since dad disaperd you've always acted like this!"

"You dad disnt just disaper he flat out abandoned us why cant you get that into your head?"

"Cause i KNOW that the father i remeber would never do that! he was too angry at grandad over doing it that he wouldnt do it him self."

"GO TO YOUR ROOM BEFORE I GROUND YOU!"

"NOT UNTILL YOU GIVE ME A GOOD REASON!"

"CAUSE YOUR BEING A DISRESPECTfULL LITTLE BRAT!"

"NO! IT'S Cause I remind you of him!"

"GO RIGHT NOW OR YOUR GROUNDED!"

"WHAT DIFFRENCE DOES THAT MAKE? I Dont have any friends and as soon as i come home you always do this!"

"YOUNG LADY IF YOU ARE NOT IN YOUR BY THE TIME I COUNT TO TEN..."

Alphonse broke it up before someone got hurt. since Ed dissaperd he had become the head of the home.

"Elsa I give you permishion to go to the study instead of going up to your room. feel free to the books just put them back where you found them." he told her. a thrilled look came across the girls face as she raced to the study. the room was full of refernce books for all of the homes adults to use. medical and technolagy for Winnry it also contained a few notebooks Al and Ed put together on Alchemy incase they would ever need it again also to pass down the skill to the two kids if they wanted to learn. Elsa's favorite thing to do was go through the note books. Owen prefured the medical books that were there. However he did know the basics in alchemy in case he ever needed it. Elsa would easily loose her self in the notebooks to the point where almost everything else was tuned out. leting her in was an easy way to make the girl happy. Once the girl was out of the room.

"Winnry why did you have to do that?" he asked her

"She was being disrespectfull and you need to back me up!"

"Winnry her whole life is being grounded! she doesnt have a life outside of ths house. the only people she has in her life is you, me and owen. She loves you but do you want to turn that love to hate? cause if you keep this up that is whats going to happen. shes either going to get so hatefull of you to the point it poisens her or shes going to spiritualy brake. I know you think Ed abandoned us and thats why you dont even want to look at her. cause she has him written alover her. but thats why you need to be carefull with how you handle her. Its not her fault she takes after her father. and to be honust with you shes the one that has given me the will to hang on with out knowing where his is or what happend."

"DONT tell me what to do Al! shes my daughter!"

"im not challangeing you im simply.."

"You have no right to meddle in with this!"

"if you claim she is your daughter than show it. prove to her that you love her. right now im sure she thinks you hate her and want her out of your life."

"I know my own child!"

Al knew when to back off but he knew this was true but she had made her own heart stone so she showed nothing but hate tward her daughter. while showering her son dispite the protests both put up.

"if thats how you want it. but i have this one last thing to say. if you dont change your attatude tward her you are going to loose her and never get her back." he said wraping it up back turned to her as he left. Winnry just scoffed.
