Hello again my fellow readers! I hope you like the last chapter, cause it took me 4eva to fucking write. And now I'm gonna give you another one and hope that it's good. This one will probably be more centered around Kiroki. Because well… She's my main character and it'll be easier on me. I think this ark might be over now though. Now who shall do my disclaimer because I'm too damn lazy to do it myself? I KNOW! I pick, Elicia! (The 3 year old one cause she's adorable)

Elicia: Leenaluvsanime4eva doesn't own FMA! Only th' OCs and the Pwot…Kinda. DID I DO IT WITE?

Hughes: OF COUSE U DID MY PRECIOUS DAUGHTER! YOU R PERFECT IN EVERYWAY!

Leena: *Sweat drop* And on with the story!

Kiroki's POV

Did you ever get the feeling that everybody and everything was out to get you, and there was some kind of conspiracy going on that everyone but you knew about and in that conspiracy they strived for you to go down in complete and utter turmoil? Yeah well that's how I feel right about now. I thought that this camping trip would be a breeze. Pitch a tent, eat some roasted fish, and spend some time with my dad, etcetera. etcetera. But no, alas that didn't happen. Instead I end up having to tend to my dad's wounds that still might kill him. The bear that I successfully killed is stinking up the whole camp now, too. And I threw the damn corpse in the raging river, no thanks to this badass storm, and the stink still isn't gone. And that was a week ago when the damn attack happened. But thankfully do to the psychic Elementation, I've put up a barrier and now stuff like that won't come around. Sure the camp looks better now, and I have food again, but the storm has been here for 7 days and help still hasn't come. And I'm well aware infection is in dad's wounds, which I'm treating to the best of my abilities, due to the fever and just by the way it looks. No matter how much I clean them out and rub the ointment I got from some herbs I've found, it just won't let up. Dads in pain, it's always raining, and my life really sucks right now. Yeah I'm well aware I sound like I whiny little brat but Damnit this just sucks!

After having that huge ass rant in my mind I felt a little better, but Dad started groaning again and that meant he was awake and I needed to get something in him. All week long he hasn't held barely anything down. I had just mashed up some peaches, and the canteens were full. I crouched over to him and shook his shoulder lightly.

"Dad, get up you can't lay around forever. You haven't eaten all day and you need something in your stomach." I heard him groan sleepily and he mumbled a Leave me the fuck alone I'm tiered Damnit.

"I'm tiered too, dad but you're going to get dehydrated and that will make things worse now get the hell up." I said aggravation in my voice. He opened his tiered golden eyes and glared at me. I rolled my eyes and propped him up.

"Do I need to feed you or are you strong enough to do it yourself?" I asked. He attempted to raise his flesh arm but instead he groaned. And the after moving his raggedy auto mail, he grabbed the bowl of fruit, but then I saw the arm give out and I snatched it up before it fell.

"You haven't oiled it since we got here have you?" I asked my head facing the roof of the tent.

"No. I left it back at the house."

"Yeah well that was mighty stupid don't you think?" I growled. He narrowed his eyes. I returned the gesture soon afterward.

"Are you calling me stupid?"

"You tell me."

"Why I outta…"

"Do what Dad? In case you hadn't noticed you can barely hold yourself up. So what on earth could you do to me?" I growled. His face looked downward. We sat in silence for the longest time. But I broke it by saying,

"Look, I'm sorry, alright, I didn't mean to snap at you like that it's just… I'm getting stir crazy and I'm pissed because they still haven't come and got us and you've been difficult all week long and everything's just sucking right now."

"It's alright; you have a right to be snappy. I know I'm not the best patient and really sucking doesn't even begin to describe the way everything is going."

"Tell me about it." I sighed. After 5 minutes of silence I said.

"Look I know you don't feel like it but it took me 45 minutes out in the forest to find these peaches, cause I know there your favorite, and I got soaked and then 10 more minutes to get the water and then I had spend 5 more minutes to mash them up. So if you could just eat it then I'll leave you alone until you need to eat again."

"Fine. Feed me. But not one word to Mustang, he'd hold it over me for the rest of my life. He knows nothing of what has happened this week. Understand? Because you are sworn to secrecy." He said, lifting up his flesh pinky, but not moving the arm. I linked his pinky and nodded.

"Pinky swear dad, cause he'd hold it over me, too. Now here, open up." I said holding out the spoon. (How did she get a bowl and a spoon? IDK thin air? Why are they pinky swearing? For shits and giggles that why!) After feeding him, God that was so awkward, I gave him a drink and let him sleep. But alas, all that hard work I had put into making that food was wasted, why you ask? Because he couldn't hold it down and upchucked it outside of the tent. In the rain. That just helped make his fever grow to more than likely around 103. Just fucking great.

After helping my dad settle back down, and covering him up, and placing a cold, damp strip of my used to be t shirt on his head I slumped down to the ground by him. Now my t shirt was a belly shirt and I was freezing. I grabbed the thin blanket from my bag and wrapped it around me. Still cold but it was better than nothing.

Days pass quickly and soon we had been out here for a month. Yes a month. Nothing really changed, Daddy was still sick, help still hadn't come and it was still storming. Will this misery ever end!

Normal Pov

Winry's Camp.

They had finally given in after a month. Winry was missing home and her baby boys. She was hoping Ed and Kiroki were already home, but she knew that because they were both so stubborn they would never give in until no one else was there. Rescue came in the form of a bus. Which held all the other families. Due to the storm they were ending the trip and letting everyone go home. But Ed and Kiroki were unfortunately the last stop. Winry would just have to wait. They had emergency services following the bus just in case they came into trouble with anyone. But they hoped they wouldn't need them. After picking up Roy and Riza's camp they headed to the last stop. Thankfully the storm was beginning to slack. Winry looked out the window and saw the nice looking camp. Knowing them they were probably living it up. But when she saw a short blonde female shoving something forcefully in the river here eyes widened. What on earth was she doing?

Kiroki looked up from the river when she heard the sound of a horn. She smiled glee fully when she saw the bus. She brought her arm from the water and made sure that the bleeding had stopped. For she had snagged her arm on a tree branch when looking for some more peaches. She sprinted quickly to the tent and said to Edward,

"Daddy get up! Help is here! We can go home!" He blinked his tiered unfocused eyes and smiled.

"Well go get them over here then. I'm ready to go home." He said happily. She ran out from the tent and quickly spotted Elicia who held an umbrella over her head. After reaching her she said,

"Miss Elicia, you might want to get some help for Daddy."

"What kinda help, sweetheart?"

"The emergency kind."

"Damn, what the fuck did he do now?" She asked as she looked toward the sky. After successfully getting Edward in the ambulance, getting an EMT to stitch and bandage up Kiroki's arm, and packing there things in the bottom storage compartment on the bus, Elicia and Kiroki got on and they started home. Winry's eyes became confused when she didn't see Edward, though.

Seeing her mother's dilemma she went to her and explained the situation. Edward would be taken to the Hospital while everyone one else would get dropped off at home. And from there they could change, bath and head to the hospital and see him. Winry had started crying softly and hugged her daughter. After many tears and greetings from all her friends and family, they reached Central and everyone was happy.

After bathing and changing into clean clothes, the Elric party headed to the hospital. When they got in they reached the front desk and were lead to a private room. They opened the door to a drug induced sleeping Edward and the Doctor Emily Johnson standing by, the woman being the family doctor.

"Ahh, Misses Elric, Elijah, Jacob, Jason, Kiroki, James, Matthew, and Little Ed Jr. How are all of you doing today?" Emily asked, her bright cheery smile always lighting up her face.

"We're fine, Emily but how is Edward?" Winry asked.

"It's creepy how she knows all our names and never once messes up." James muttered to Matthew. Matthew snickering at this remark.

"Edward? He'll be fine; Kiroki actually did a good job of treating him, and as to your remark James, remember I was the doctor that helped birth you. So naturally I know each and every one of you brats by heart."

Laughter filled the room on account of the remark.

"Doctor Emily, I was wondering, how come Dad never seemed to be healing when I was treating him?"

"Well, that's because your still not entirely through all the classes and I haven't taught you too much on infections, so you didn't know what this one was. But what you did kept him alive. Cleaning out the wounds, making sure he was fed, treating the fever, that all helped but what you needed was medication to inject in his blood stream, which is currently healing him now."

"Oh!" she sighed.

"So, how long will he be here?" Winry asked.

"Well if goes right in about 2 days I'll let him leave and then he can, excuse me, he will take 2 weeks off. And Kiroki, same goes for you. Don't think I can't see you attempting to hide that cold. I could hear you sneezing and coughing from a mile away. When yall leave, your gonna rest, understood?"

"Yes mamn."

"Can yall just shut the hell up?" a sleepy voice said.

"*gasp* Mamma, Daddy just said a bad word!" Edward Jr. said, while tugging on Winry's skirt.

"Yes he did Eddy and Daddy's gonna apologize isn't he?" Winry asked in her baby voice.

"Yeah Daddy, 'pologize!" He said in his 5 year old voice. Ed groaned and muttered.

"Yeah, Yeah whatever. I apologize now leave me alone and let me sleep." They laughed at how lazy he was.

"God, Shut up!" he started yelling. The laughter was stifled but still there, along with three tiny sneezes from Kiroki.

"Thanks a lot, now I'm awake. Now what do you want?" Edward asked.

"Nothing babe, I just wanted to talk to you. I haven't seen you in a month." Winry said.

"Well then come over here and talk." He said motioning to the fold up chairs and couch that littered the room. After sitting down and talking for hours, at some point Kiroki had fallen on Elijah in exhaustion. A tiny snore was heard and they knew she had fallen asleep. It was only 6:00 PM, but she had been through so much and she was exhausted. Elijah settled her head across his lap and unconsciously stroked his little sister's hair. It was a very touching seen.

"Well we've been here for about three hours, Elijah take you siblings home, and I'll stay here with your father. Elijah you're in charge until I get there, whenever that may be. Understood?" Winry said sternly to her eldest.

"Yes, mamn." Elijah said solemnly.

"Dang." Jacob and Jason muttered.

"And Elijah, make sure that Kiroki gets plenty of rest, and that Matthew, James, and Eddy are in bed by 8:30, Jacob and Jason you need to be in bed by at least 12, remember, you have school, and Eli, same for you. 12. And I don't care if you have to strap here down kicking and screaming but you make sure that Kiroki stays in bed no matter what. Take her temperature, give her the proper meds, etcetera, you know the drill. Am I clear?"

"Crystal."

"Then go, now." She said shooing them out. Jason picked Kiroki up off of Elijah bridal style and held her loosely until Elijah got up. Eli took the girl from his younger brother's arms and carried her small body bridal style. Unconsciously she wrapped her arms around her brother's neck and snuggled into his warm, muscular chest. Eddy was picked up by Jacob and they then, the 7 siblings made their way out of the hospital.

Thankfully the storms had ended and it was a nice enough day to walk down the streets without worry of rain. After the 20 minute walk to their home, Elijah took Kiroki up to her attic bed room and set her down on the loft bed. After tucking her in and running down to the bathroom to get the thermometer, he heard her stir. He was going to go through hell. Because every time Kiroki was sick, she was a bitch the first day and then asleep for the next week. Usually Edward took care of her, because he was the only that she listened to, But when anyone else did, it was absolute hell the first day. He sighed and climbed up to the attic loft and bent down by her mattress. (1)

Tiered golden eyes stared at him and he sighed.

"Here, open up, KiKi." He said putting the thermometer in front of her mouth. Instead she flipped her body over and covered her head with her head.

"Look I know your tiered but if your gonna act like a baby I can always treat you like one. And you know what that means? That means that this thermometer goes up that tiny ass of yours." In a matter of 3 seconds the girl shot up and popped it under her tongue. After a few minutes that seemed like hours, Elijah took it from her and rolled his eyes. 102.2. The girl knew how to run a fever didn't she?

After getting the correct prescription and forcing Kiroki to take the very large pill, she fell asleep and Elijah sighed it was 8:30 and time to wrestle the other children. Damn.

After rounding them up and practically tieing them down in their bed, Elijah had a little time on his hand and decided to make himself a sandwich, having made the other children one earlier. It had been a long day, and hopefully Winry would come home. At 1:00 AM on the dot, the said woman came strolling in, and saw Elijah sleeping on the couch. Evidently he had tried to wait up for her but was too tiered after dealing with his siblings all day. She smiled softly and woke him. He blinked tiredly but understood why. The couch was old a ragged and very uncomfortable. And if you slept on it too long you'd end up having back problems. He stumbled to his room and flopped onto his bed and Winry chuckled at her son's sleepy foot work.

(the next day, 6:30 am)

"Good morning, Elijah, Jacob, Jason, James, Matthew, Eddy. And how are you on this fine morning?" Winry asked from the kitchen as she saw her sons come in sleepily. She placed there breakfast in front of them at where they sat at the bar. Elijah started slowly eating, while Jacob and Jason's faces fell into their oatmeal. James and Matthew stirred around at their oatmeal and Eddy ate his whole heartily.

"So did yall sleep well?" Winry questioned, her tiered looking sons.

"mmph." Was heard around the bar.

" I did, mommy and I had this dream…" her youngest babbled. Soon after breakfast the 6 siblings got ready for school, the three older going to the high school and the three younger heading to the elementary school. At about 9:00 Winry heard stumbles and a few curses coming from above, figuring her daughter had awoke she padded over to the staircase to see her daughter holding her head in her hand and stumbling down the attic steps.

"Kiroki stop rite there." Winry said sternly in fear of her sick, daughter falling. But the cry was on deaf ears for when she had two steps left she fell flat on her ass.

"Damn, that hurt like a bitch." She muttered. Her mother sighed and made her way up to her daughter. Winry grabbed the girl by her armpits and hoisted her up sighing as she heard her back pop in protest. Winry sighed as she wrapped her arm around her daughter, supporting her as she helped her feverish daughter step down the staircase and onto the living room couch. Covering her daughter with a blanket she kneeled down beside her and asked softly,

"Kiroki, how are you feeling?"

"I'm hungry."

"Okay, can you stomach some toast?"

"yeah toast is fine, and mamma?"

"Yes baby?"

"Can I have the strawberry fig preserve jelly on it?" (2)

"Of course, baby." Her mother smiled. She went to the kitchen and quickly lightly toasted some bread and spread a tiny amount of butter on it then spooning out the preserves on it. She helped her daughter sit up and placed the food in her daughters lap. After quickly gobbling down the food, she gave her mother her plate and snuck down under her blanket. After depositing the plate in the dish washer, Winry came and sat down beside her daughter on the couch, placing the girls head on her lap. She placed a hand on her daughter's forehead and smiled.

"Well you don't have much of a fever anymore so I think you can manage school tomorrow, don't you think?"

"UGH! DO I have to?"

"I' m not letting you play hooky."

"Damnit. Fine I'll go tomorrow."

"Atta' girl. Wanna watch some TV?"

"Yeah as long as something's on."

"Well its 10:30, so I think SpongeBob is on.

"Oh yes, mom, every 15 year old wants to watch GayBob QuierPants. (3)" She smirked.

"Okay, what about…Tom Jerry?"

"YES! IT'S LIKE THE MOST VIOLENT CARTOON EVER!"

"Tom Jerry it is." Winry smiled as she turned on the TV to channel 175.(4) And after a long day of lounging around and resting, the next day, Kiroki was completely better and ready for facing the never ending crowd at school.

Oh the joy.

She sleeps on a single mattress with no frame on the bare floor of the attic loft. Just to have that cleared up

Strawberry fig preserve jelly is what my Grammy makes all the time, by preserving Figs and strawberry jello powder together and it is awesome

This is what my 17 year old brother calls SpongeBob, since he was at least 15
