3 months gone

Ed crashed down into the kitchen in the morning, half asleep.

Igani was lying on Mustang, who seemed to have fallen sleep on the sofa, reading.

He had taken an interest in reading a while back, unknown to Ed after he received Al's note, which he had read just hadn't told anyone about it.

He now had the reading age of the average eleven year old, which considering he was three and three quarters years old was impressive. Even though it was below his mental age of fourteen.

His long hair was loose and Ed used it to lift his head and braided it, picked him up baby style, from Mustang and then dropped him on the older mans stomach.

The younger blonde paid no attention to this drop, Mustang's eyes shot open and he leapt for Edward.

Al was still watching them, only when the lights went out in house late at night did he go and find somewhere to rest, usually the house where he and Ed had lived and where Igani had been created. The windows had been blocked up, rumours had spread and nobody wanted the house.

After staying with Winry for so long he had ended up looking well put together, and had given him plenty of time to influence Winry and Pinako, really it was the stress that had broken them, it was lucky really he hadn't thought about how to keep them quiet when he had gone, it had taken holding a knife to their throats.

He casually twirled the sharp object between his fingers, hopefully this would persuade Ed to obey, of course his toy would obey him once he made it realise who his master was again.

The only problem was getting his toy back.

Ed was sitting at his desk, bored.

Igani was sitting next to him reading one of the simple science books Ed had given in, ever since he had learnt to read the basic aim had been to get up to a high enough standard for a high school student, though he tended to get bored after short amount of time due to immaturity.

"Ed."

"Hmmm?" the older blonde glazed towards him, mumbling around the pen in his mouth.

"How are babies made?"

The pen fell out of Ed's mouth as he turned into a tomato. It really was the dreaded question.

"When a man and a women love each other very much, they…have sex…"

"What's that?"

Impossibly Ed felt his face heat more, then felt worry building up. He didn't want to confuse the boy and make him think that he could be pregnant after Al.

"Well, isn't it in that book?"

"Yes, but I think its wrong, because where's your M…other and Fat…her."

"Well, my 'father' ran off and my 'mother', my mum, has died." He stared at the desk frowning then glanced towards the boy noting the look of guilt that past of his face.

"That's…sorry." He frowned still looking confused.

"Where they mine too then?"

"No, she died before you were around."

"So where are mine?" Igani moved to sit on the desk in front of Ed.

"You don't have any, don't you know about…? Why do you think we look (aside from you being younger) identical?"

"I think because you took me out, so I just look like you. I used to think it was because I was old enough to go and the person who got you out had to look like you, but that's wrong."

"Yeah, well. It's because you're cloned of me." He watched boy for any reaction, he only got a blank stare.

"That means you were made to look like me, no sex involved."

He received a deeper frown in reply. "By who?" he looked away looking guilty. "Draig? The bad man?" Ed gave a curt nod, and glanced at the boy from the corner of his eye.

"Why would…that make me, to hurt like that. And why choose you to make me from?"

"Well, he was my brother."

"Yes, but no reason to use you. He would have you. So it must have been something he wanted from you and you wouldn't give." Igani's breathing was speeding up, and he was feeling more confused, he had never been angry before and it was making his head hurt. He wanted to shout and hit something, the only reason he hadn't was because he didn't want to upset Ed.

"So what did he want?" He fixed his eye firmly on Ed's.

Edward gazed back at him, and then smiled broadly screwing up his eyes. "Right come on let go get something to eat, I think we can get away with sneaking away now…"

"No you can not. Tell me now." He glazed back at the other blonde, he had hidden his eyes beneath his hair, but his knuckles were white.

"He just did it we don't know why."

"You are a lair. I think that, it was for something else." He turned his glittering to Ed's face again.

"I think it was for." He glanced at the book next to him. "I think it was for sex, says that people really like it, so we not. You too brother not supposed to so get another one like him." Tears where flooding down his face. "I am right, aren't I?"

Ed shifted slightly, feeling like a chastened child, wishing anyone would walk around the corner right now.

"Yeah you are."

A/N: Review if I should keep this up

A/N2: Erm, yeah so a little mean.... Igani is a pain to write, I don't want him to be too cutsy cause thats annoying, but I do want him to be sweet and have something about him. Oh well let me now how I did
