The Next Time…
"Here is the dumb resume of my mission," I said as I was about to walk out of the door.
"Wait a minute Kurai," the Colonel said. I turned back around with an annoyed look on my face. The Colonel Roy Mustang was his name. His goal? To annoy me.
"What now?" I said.
"You've got another mission," he replied.
"You kidding me! I just came back from another one! Can't I take a break?" I asked.
"No. As a dog of the military, you are to obey every single one of your commands. Am I clear?" he asked me. I sighed.
"Yes, Colonel," I replied.
"The details of this mission will be found in this document," he said as he pointed at the small pack of paper on the corner of his desk.
"You will be heading west to recover something called a fragment of innocence. It's an unknown substance. It may have something to do with the Homunculus," he explained.
"Well, considering the name, I don't think it has something to do with Homunculus," I said. The Colonel glared at me.
"You will be with the Full Metal on this one," he said as I slammed the door shut.
"Damn Colonel," I whispered.
"Still hate him?" a voice asked. I looked up. Edward Elric, as known as the Full Metal Alchemist. He was a relatively short person; however he was the same height as me with his high platform boots and his little "antenna". His so called antenna was actually made out of hair. It was a tiny strand of hair that stood out of nowhere.
"If he didn't exist, that would make my job a lot easier," I sighed. Ed smiled.
"So, you've got a mission?" he asked as we made our way towards the hotel.
"Yup! And the Colonel wants you to come along with me," I replied.
"Great, he wants to drag me down as well," he sighed. I smiled.
"What's the mission about?" he asked me. I looked through the papers that the Colonel gave me.
"Something called Innocence. Not sure what it is, we will surely figured it out sooner or later," I said.
"Where are we heading?"
"West," I said. Ed sighed.
Soon we arrived at the hotel, Ed and I parted. We had to leave as soon as possible. I took a shower and grabbed a pair of black shorts and a black tube top. I put on my knee length black boots. I looked at myself in the mirror. My red eyes were the things that I notice the most. Instead of an ordinary color like blue or brown, I got red eyes. The thing that stands out the most of my entire body is my eyes. Not to mention the fact that within my short shoulder-length black hair, there is a long strand of platin blond hair which reached almost my hips. I attempted to dye it however the color will always return and more vibrant than usual. I was… short. I hate to admit it, but I am. A bit taller than Ed, but still short.
I grabbed my red coat and headed out. I almost forgot my weapons, Shiro and Kuro. They were twin swords one of them is black, the other is white. When they weren't activated, they turned into a black and a white bracelet. I placed one on each wrist.
"Hurry up!" Ed shouted once we reached the station.
"I am coming!" I said as I ran to catch up to him. Ed was wearing his usual long red coat with a sign on his back. My coat wasn't as long as Ed's. In fact it was really short. It reached half way down my back. However, it had long sleeves.
"So, we are suppose to be looking for what exactly?" Ed asked me as soon as we boarded the train.
"Don't know. Nothing in the document that the Colonel gave me explained what it looked like," I said.
"Maybe it's a Philosopher's Stone," Ed said. I sighed.
"Ed, ya read too much books," I said as I glazed out the window.
My mother brought me to this country when I was 3. My mother got separated from my dad a while ago. She doesn't like talking about the past. When I received the invitation to become a state alchemist, my mother was against it. However, in the end, she accepted. I became a dog of the military since the age of 11. I met Ed on the day of my exam. He is a year older than I was. He's 16 now and I am 15.
Life wasn't exactly easy in the military. You had to obey the commands of your higher-ups, kill without hesitation, something I had to do countless times. I hated being in the military, but I had no choice. In order for my mother to live, I had to. Even if I hated the military from the bottom of my heart, I had to obey their commands.
"We are almost there Kurai," Ed said. I woke up and looked out the window. We had arrived to our destination.
"So, where to?" Ed asked.
"I don't know any better than you," I replied. Suddenly we came to a forest and there were two of the military's dogs there.
"Halt! May I know who you are?" one of them asked. Ed and I took out our pocket watches.
"It's the Full Metal Alchemist and the Black Alchemist," the guard said. Almost at once, they let us enter.
"Was easy," Ed said. I stood on my guard. Something wasn't exactly what you could call okay around here.
"What's wrong?" Ed asked.
"Something's fishy…" I replied. Suddenly the road in front of us widens and there stood a transmutation circle. I ran up to it and looked at it carefully. Ed soon joined me.
"What is it for?" Ed asked.
"Don't ask me, I don't know," I said.
"The only to figure it out is to use it," Ed said as he stood up. I did the same. We clapped our hand together and placed it on the transmutation circle. Nothing happened.
"Great! What are we suppose to do now!" Ed said. I took a step forward and without realizing, I plunged into the circle.
"Kurai!" Ed shouted as he grabbed my hand. Soon I knew I was once again in the same forest that I started in. Only this time, I found myself on someone.
"Ya alright?" we both asked at the same time.
"Yeah," we replied at the same time. Suddenly a boy with red hair walked up and helped the girl stand up. He was followed by a younger boy with white hair and grey eyes. His left eye had some kind of weird scar on it.
"You okay Kurai?" Ed asked. He lended me his hand.
"I am fine,"
"Are you okay Hikari?" the boy with red hair asked.
"Yeah, I just fell on a Moyashi over there," she replied. So her name is Hikari, which means light. The opposite of mine which meant dark.
"WHO YOU CALLING SHORT!" Ed snapped. Damn it…
Hikari and Kurai: Yay! our turn to say: REVIEW!
