Ed awoke to a bird song right outside his window. Light shimmered through the blinds and onto the bed.
"Al? You there?" Ed asked pushing himself up wincing slightly.
"Of course brother, I've not left the room,"
"Al, last time I was awake I told you to go out and do something."
"It's not the same without you brother. Anyway, how are you feeling?"
"I'm fine, see."
Ed swung his legs off the side of the bed and pushed himself up onto his feet.
"Brother!" Al yelled as Ed became dizzy and fell towards the floor. Al caught him.
"I'm fine Al just a bit weaker than normal," Ed said giving Al a weak smile.
"Please lay back down brother and you'll be out quicker."
"You worry too much," Ed said sitting back in bed.
Al sighed and went to sit on a chair by the bed.
"Where did Fin and Alicia go?" Ed asked.
"I think they went to the ice cream parlour to talk."
"That'll be good for them won't it A..."
A high pitched scream rose from the street below.
"Al! What's that?" Ed said sitting up too quickly and gripping his head.
"Brother, stay still! I'll go and look," Al said running out of the door, "Don't move and stay there!"
Al ran down the stairs and out of the building towards the scream.
Ed couldn't just sit there while something was happening outside. Ed pushed himself ignoring his throbbing head and jelly like legs. He stumbled downstairs and fell onto the streets. Fin was standing I front of his sister facing Gluttony, but something wasn't quite right.
"Al! There's something wrong with Gluttony!"
Al span round.
"Ed I told you to stay up stairs you're still not well!"
"Since when do you tell me what to do?" Ed smirked still in a lot of pain.
Suddenly Gluttony ran at Ed. he didn't have enough time to get away.
"Brother!"
