Roy wasted no time in gathering the girl into his arms. "Ed, I'll handle her, just check out that symbol."

Ed wavered, caught between wanting to help his friend and curiosity over the strange mark. "But..." He said, trailing off.

Roy glared, already heading for the car. "No damn buts! I've got her handled, so just do what I ordered!"

Ed huffed, worry overweighing his curiosity. But, Roy did have it handled... And was orders... Ed clapped, and watched as the alchemical light transformed itself. But what he saw wasn't what he expected.

Back on the other side of the gate~

Abby forced herself not to get too absorbed into the scenery of downtown Tokyo. She had something to do, dammit. She could gawk like a tourist later. She stopped at a vendor, pulling out yen while chatting. "Sumimasen, anata wa kono otoko o mite iru?" (Excuse me, but have you seen this man?) She asked, pulling out a picture of her uncle.

The man running the stand shook his head. "Mōshiwakearimasenga, nai, watashi wa arimasen." (Sorry, but no, I haven't." Abby muttered he thanks before wandering off.

'I seriously must've tried at least half the stalls in Tokyo, but no ones seen him! Maybe he's moved on already...?' She thought, reaching inside her bag for her locator device. Opening and activating it, she glared at the gold dot blinking innocently at her. She tried getting a better lock on his location. 'Dammit Uncle Tony, you sure are doing a good job of avoiding me...' Abby thought, ignoring the odd looks she got for her computer. 'Dammit, zoom!' She thought, and like that, she received a street address. Abby sighed. 'Was it really that easy, or did you just start to comply?' She thought rhetorically before heaving herself up and walking towards the nearest vendor. After acquiring directions to uptown, she started that way.

Minipagebreak.

Abby held her breath as she knocked on the door. A smiling man opened the door. "Kon'nichiwa, watashi wa watashi no oji tonī o sagashiteimasu? Watashi wa kare ga koko ni ita to iwa remashita. (Hi, I'm looking for my Uncle Tony? I was told he was here.) The man nodded several times before ushering her inside, calling over his shoulder. Her uncles voice called back, and it almost made her freeze before she regained composure. When Tony walked into the room though, his shock was obvious.

"A-abby! What are you doing here?" He grimaced.

Abby smirked. So he was surprised? Good. "'Lo, Uncle Tony. So, is this where you've been hiding these past couple of years? I'm surprised. But a touching family reunion isn't why I'm here. Neither is yelling at you for ditching us."

Tony smiled, relieved. "Then why are you here? And wheres Camille?"

Abby's face fell. "See, Uncle T, that's why I'm here. You see, Camille's been kidnapped."

Another short chapter, I know. I'm trying, I swear! But writers block and school and the holidays and other writing projects... I'm lucky I haven't passed out yet. Anyway, R&R!
