So I hope you all liked my first chapter, and I'll try my hardest to keep everyone in character and make this chapter interesting. I'm really sorry I updated a day or two late but I didn't really know what I wanted to have happen and I'm still not completely sure. With that said here's the next chapter. Enjoy!

Chapter 2

I opened my eyes and found myself lying in a strange bed. I couldn't remember how I had gotten there and immediately tried to sit up, but was stopped by a pain from my leg. Then the events of the day came rushing back to me. The car crash, my leg, blacking out, waking up to find my brothers gone, the castle like building, and the soldiers. I looked around the room from the bed I was in. The walls were an off white color and the floors were made of a light colored wood. Fang was slumped in a chair next to my bed fast asleep.

He reminded me of our father with his messy, black, strait hair, and his pale flawless skin. He looked calm and peaceful while asleep and I didn't want to wake him up but my leg was killing me and I wanted answers about where Arrow and Hanyou went.

"Aaron…?" I said softly using his real name instead of his nickname.

Once he heard his name he shot up from the chair so fast that he ended up falling on the floor. "What! What's wrong!?"

"Aaron, my leg hurts. How long was I unconscious for?"

"You've been asleep for 3 days. Are you hungry? I can find someone to get food for you if you want it?" He was rambling on and on about little things. He completely avoided the topic of my leg which worried me.

"My leg, Aaron, how bad was it?" I asked in a low tone string at his face. I was waiting for him to say that it was going to be fine and that I would be able to move it in a couple of days, but he didn't.

"It wasn't good. The doctors said that there was nothing they could do. The only choice was amputation or bleeding to death. Can't you fell that's its gone, Dith?" He almost never used my real name anymore. I wanted to believe he was joking but when I lifted the covers away I say that the bottom half of my right leg was no longer there.

Why didn't I feel it missing! Why couldn't I tell right away! No, it's because this is some kind of nightmare! This isn't real! It can't be! My thoughts were racing as I processed that information.

"But don't worry about it because there's this stuff called automail. It's like a prosthetic but it's a thousand times better and made of metal. It's like a real leg and is kind of cool looking if u ask me. It does however requires an extremely painful procedure thingy to attach something called a 'dock' for the auto mail to be held in but I think you could handle it, you've been through worse. It also has a 3 year recovery and mastery period but I think you might be able to do it in 6 months at the most do to the 'being special' thing. I've been reading up on this stuff for-"

Aaron kept on talking but I had zoned out after a minute or so. Did he say automail? Like from Fullmetal Alchemist?! What is going on? Where the hell are we? This is not real; he's playing a sick joke on me.

I know that wasn't true. I knew that this was really happening and that Fang wasn't lying. After all I could remember the gate. It was a lot scarier looking in real life. Part of me wished that I could just forget it, like Fang had, but another part wanted it to happen again. I wanted to pass through the gate and see the 'Truth' for a second time.

"Stop rambling Fang. I'll do the surgery thing, But only if you tell me what happened to Arrow and Hanyou." I stated cutting him short of whatever it was he was saying.

I watch as Fang stiffened and walked over to the bed. He sat down and hung his head so that his hair covered his bright green eyes. "Listen Metal, their gone. They left us for a group of bandits. They told me that they didn't want anything to do with us anymore."

What? How could they leave us all alone!? We're not even on earth anymore and they decide to just leave us….

My brothers left me alone, Just like our parents did. I just looked down at the floor boards with fang.

TIME SKIP

"Now, would you two like to tell us what happened, and why didn't you just go to a hospital." The man known as Lt. Colonel Roy Mustang of the Amestrian state military asked us. He was also known as the Flame alchemist, which sounds way cooler. How did I know this? Well I was in FMA after all and I am a little bit of an expert on this topic.

We just sat there and stared at the floor. I didn't really feel like telling the story we mad up to explain why we were here. So I let fang do the talking.

"Well you see sir, my sister Metal and I were traveling with our older siblings when bandits showed up. My brothers decided to leave us and join the bandits. My sister had gotten injured and I don't really know where we were or where to go so I just carried her to the biggest most important looking government building I saw and it happened to be this one."

That was a great story Fang. Minimal lies, believable, yep overall way better than I would have come up with.

"Where are your parents?" Mustang asked, although it sounded more like he was demanding a straight answer.

"Who cares…?" I responded in a low tone. I was still slumped over in my chair, staring at the floor like at any moment it might open up and become the most fabulous thing to ever exist.

Mustang just raised an eye brow at this, motioning for me to explain.

I sighed and sat up strait on the edge of the chair and looked him directly in the eyes. "The stupid baka's just decided to leave us. They decided that their own kids weren't worth being around anymore, so they vanished leaving us with nothing." I knew I was going to break down at any minute. I was never good at controlling my emotions, and when it came to the subject of my "parents" all I seemed able to do was to shut down completely.

I really didn't want to make a screen in front of the military officer, or for that matter, show any sign of weakness at all. But since I couldn't exactly run off somewhere to hide when I was finished I just closed my eyes and leaned back down In the chair reverting back to the previous position in which my hair covered my face.

P.O.V

Fang

Oh, Metal, why'd you have to get yourself all worked up. I knew that she must have wanted to run off somewhere, to a place that she could let her emotions out, to not have to show her weaknesses to others, but she couldn't.

"Um sir?" I wanted to ask the Lt. Colonel about auto mail and what we would have to do to get her to have it as soon as possible.

"Yes?" he looked away from Metal as if I had snapped him out of deep thought.

"Um, I was wondering if u could tell me about automail. I wish to find a way to get it for my sister." I sounded very confidant, which surprised me because on the inside I was having a mental battle.

'You better have a good answer for me bud or else I'm gonna hurtle the desk and kick u out that big glass window of yours!'

Oh no how could you think that way…. Please, please, please, please, sir, please help my sister. I'll do anything!

'Come on already help us out! Your probably rice and stuff seeing as how your kind of in charge around here from the looks of it.'

Ahhhhhh I'm so rude, I'm begging you sir, I don't have any were else to turn, and for the "Inner Circle's" plans to work out then she has to be able to move around and fight.

Ugh all of that mental fighting was giving me a head ach. It had been 2 minutes since I asked the question. He had just been staring thoughtfully down at his desk. His chin was resting on the back of his head.

Right when I was about to ask again he lifted up his head and opened him mouth to say something. But I never got to find out what he was going to say. He was cut off by the door opening so fast that I was slightly surprised that it didn't come off its hinges.

Then a blond boy, probably around Metal's age stormed into the room. He had a red coat on but the right arm was practically shredded, exposing the metal of an automail arm underneath. His left pant leg was also ripped to the point where u could see that he had an automail leg as well.

"Mustang!" the boy yelled the name of the Lt. Colonel. By the tone of his voice I knew he must have been pissed.

My sister had lifted her head ever so slightly to get a glimpse of the angered boy, but when I saw the slightest reddening in her cheeks I immediately knew who this kid was.

He was my sisters 'anime crush' as she had once called it.

The great and famous 'hero of the people'…..

"Edward Elric." The military officer said his name confirming my original guess.

At least he saved me the trouble of having to track him down.

'Found you.'

Oh another cliff hanger, he he well I guess you will all have to wait till I finish the next chapter to find out what's really going on. But hey we go to meet Ed for the first time today.

EME! I TOLD YOU I WROTE THIS STORY!

And that little shout out was to my close friend Eme. One of the only people who will understand where the idea for the inner circle came from. I will say one thing though. All is not what it seems with my story. I'll try to update as soon as I can but I don't really know where I'm going with the story to much so I might take more than one day. See ya all in the next chapter.
