A/N: Hello! I'm back, got inspired to write this! My sister is making me watch 'Twilight', I'm dying. I'm BLASTING music in my headphones just to end the torture so the end is really short and mean to Alphonse.
This review made me start the next chapter! (Because it gave me an idea for some odd reason...)
Alapest: Even though I'm quite the tomboy, if I was in Japan at that time I think I'd be fan girling like the girls in OHSHC if Al was there (no lie!)!
Hehe... *singing* Riza and Roy, sitting in a tree, K.I.S.S.I.N.G ;)
Can't wait to know what happens next! *squeels and grabs Al into another hug*
I think I'd be fangirling too, screw it I WAS fangirling while writing it (I had the whole thing play out in my head, it was ADORABLE!) Yes, Roy and Hawkeye sitting in a tree! K.I.S.S.I.N.G~ And Al now accepts your hug all on his own (I'm so proud of him!)
Okay, that's pretty much it.
~Enjoy!
Al sat in the kitchen/dining room with Riza, waiting for the hosts to show up. Al was giving Riza the run down on everyone in the club, except Haruhi.
"Tamaki Suoh, he's very flamboyant. He will try and be a host on you, so beware."
"Got it. Tamaki is the tall blonde." Riza nodded as a sign for Al to continue.
"Kyoya Ootori is very smart. He's the shorter black haired one. Be very careful with what you say around him." Al warned the woman.
"Alright. Anyone else?" Riza took of her tea.
"There's Honey and Mori but they're alright. Actually they're the oldest of the group even though Honey looks about five years old. Mori doesn't say much. He's the tall black haired one." Al took a sip of his tea then looked at his watch, the hosts would be there any second.
"Alright. So, Honey is very short and Mori's very tall. Is that it?"
"No, there are the twins, Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin. They're very... interesting. If they ask you to play a game say 'no'. Just say 'no'." Al sighed as he shook his head.
"... Alright." Riza said with a laugh. A knock sounded from the door and she got up to answer it. "Oh, you must be the Host Club! Come on in!" She greeted.
"Thank you, ma'am." Tamaki said as the hosts were lead into the room by Riza.
"Oh, you can call me Riza if you want." She said with a smile. The hosts and her all took a seat at the table.
"Well thank you very much, Riza." Kyoya said with a smile.
"So, would you like tea?" Riza offered as she got up to make some more.
"Yes please!" They all answered in unison.
"So, Alphonse, why did you want us to come here exactly?" Tamaki asked.
"Well, we didn't get to finish our meeting yesterday so I thought 'hey let's finish it at my house!' I didn't want to inconvenience the janitors again." Al said as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Al-chan! I brought some cake to eat!" Honey said as he set the package of cakes on the table.
"Thank you! Why don't we eat some then?" Al suggested as Riza brought over the tea. The hosts nodded and took something from the package.
"Alright, down to business, what's tomorrow's theme?" Tamaki asked the group. They stayed quiet for a moment before the twins raised their hands and spoke.
"How about magic?"
"Like magicians?" Kyoya asked as he scribbled something down in his note pad.
"No, remember that book we told you about? Well in this book there's this thing called 'alchemy' and it's pretty much like magic." Hikaru explained as he took out the book and set it on the table. It was barely there for two seconds before Al snached it up and began reading it.
"Alphonse Elric! No reading at the table!" Riza scolded as she left the room to do laundry.
"Sorry, Mom." Al answered as he set the book down with an embarrassed expression.
"I've never seen anyone read books with so much interest." Tamaki commented.
"You think that's interest, my brother read way faster than me!" Al said with a chuckle.
"That reminds me, where is your brother Al?" Honey asked him, his mouth full of cake.
"Not... I, he's not here." Al said quietly, forcing his tears down. He wasn't going to cry in front of his friends.
"Oh, is he back in Germany with your father?" Hikaru asked as he shoved more cake in his mouth.
"You could say that."
"Meaning?" Kaoru asked.
"Let's not talk about it, okay?" Al snapped. He didn't know what else to do so he tried to change topics. "How're we going to do this alchemy thing anyway?"
"... Well, in the book there are guys who are known for alchemy and they have really cool outfits." Hikaru grabbed the book and showed them the bag with some of the alchemists, Al looked at the page and gasped, in the center of the page was Ed and him. But in the picture he was still in a suit of armor.
"What's wrong? You don't like it?" Tamaki asked, disappointed that Al didn't like it.
"It's not that, where did you get this book?" Al asked the twins seriously.
"Our mom got it from some weird man. " They shrugged in unison. Al was about to answer when the phone rang. He got up and picked it up.
"Hello?"
"Alphonse. Did Hawkeye show up yet?" Roy's voice said urgently through the phone.
"Oh, hi, Dad. Yes, mom's fine." Al said quickly once he say the hosts' confused looks.
"What the heck are you doing, boy?" Roy asked, he was utterly lost.
"Oh, nothing much, just hanging out with friends." Al said as he hoped Roy would catch on soon.
"Oh. Well, is Riza there? Can you give her the phone?" Roy answered in an understanding tone. Al let out a sigh, Roy caught on.
"No, mom's doing laundry, want me to have her call back?" Al looked over at the hosts, listening to every word he said.
"Can you pass on a message?" Roy asked with a sigh.
"Yeah, what is it?"
"Tell her 'Her mother came to visit and she made a large pie.' Tell her that, word for word."
"Got it." Al said with a nod.
"Repeat it back to me."
"Fine. 'Her mother came to visit and she made a large pie.' Happy?" Al asked with a sigh.
"Very much so. Goodbye Alphonse." There was a click and then Al hung up the phone. Al sat back down with a heavy sigh.
"What was that all about?" The twins asked in unison.
"My dad wanted to speak with my mom."
"Oh. So, are we doing the alchemy thing?" Kyoya asked as he pushed his glasses up.
"YES!" Tamaki answered as he stood and gave a fist pump. The rest of the group nodded and Kyoya scribbled something down.
"Well, I guess the meeting's over!" Honey said as he stood up. The rest of the group nodded and stood. They waved goodbye as they left through the door.
"Oh, Al, bring the book back soon!" The twins said as they left their book on the table and followed Tamaki out the door.
Kyoya stood and walked over to Al, he bent over a whispered something in his ear.
"Don't think you can hide from me forever." With that he left the house. Al stared at the closed door in shock, what did Kyoya mean by that? Al didn't have time to wonder before Riza came back into the room.
"Are they gone?" She asked Al who nodded. Riza came back in and sat down at the table with Al. "Good. Who was on the phone?"
"Roy. He said 'Her mother came to visit and she made a large pie'." Al repeated the message to Riza, never taking his eyes from the door, what did Kyoya mean by 'hide'?
"Al, why don't you go read that book, I've got to call Roy back." Riza suggested in a tone that said the suggestion wasn't really a suggestion.
"Alright. He sounded tired over the phone though." Al warned as he left to read the mysterious book.
Al lay down on his bed and opened the book.
Dear Reader,
You may find this book in the 'Science Fiction' section of your book place. Fine, believe that, but if you're like me than you know that this is real. Everything in this book happened, only the names are changed. But, believe what you will.
Sincerely,
Author.
"Well, that's cheerful."
This story starts with a war. This war is called 'The Ishvalan Extermination' and as you can probably guess many innocent people died. The two countries fighting the war were Ishval and Amestris. The Amerstrians had a special branch in their military to fight all the battles for them, these people were called State Alchemists. These men had the ability to use alchemy, a science that allows you to deconstruct and reconstruct almost anything as long as you know the chemical makeup of the item.
Now during this war a woman died. She didn't die from a bullet or war, she died from sickness. And she left behind two little boys, a ten year old and a nine year old. These two children happened to be alchemists. Once their mother died the older of the two, a boy named Edward (Or Ed for short) came up with the idea to use alchemy to bring the woman back.
"Come on, Allen! We're going to bring Mom back!" He would say while the two researched ways to bring her back.
"B-but I don't..." The other would start but then stop, they both wanted their mother back that they would do anything for her.
One year later they had finally perfected the transmutation circle.
"Ready Al?" Ed asked.
"Mmhm." The younger one nodded unsurely. They clapped their hands then pressed them down on the circle. Instantly blue lightning came up from the floor space around their hands, they gave confident smiles, it had worked.
Then everything went wrong.
The lightning turned crimson and surrounded both boys, black hands reached out of the floor and grabbed the two and wrapped around Ed's lower left leg. Ed cried out in agony as his knee down on his left leg got deconstructed.
"ED! ED HELP ME!" Ed looked around for his brother a-
Al shut the book, his breath was fast and shallow, this was his story. Al threw the book across the room and hid underneath his covers, trying to hide from the world.
A/N: Wow, no time skips in this chapter... that is so weird. Anyway, I feel really mean for doing that to little Al! T^T I'M SO SORRY!
Disclaimer: I don't own anything mentioned in this fic, happy?
