Me: Hey everyone! Just as a warning this chapter is REALLY short, just like Ed.
Ed: HEY! WHO ARE YOU CALLING A MIDGET?!
Me: No one! Geez. Talk about issues. So anyway, I do promise that future chapters will be longer.
Mustang: Aren't you forgetting something, SD?
Me: Oh yeah! Just as a heads up the next few weeks I will be busy so I don't know when I'll update again. Now we can move to the story!
I sat in an operation room next to the boy, who I had since learned was Edward Elric, listening to him and Granny talk. The suit of armor which contained the soul of Edward's little brother Alphonso also sat nearby listening. Al and I have become friends during our stay here. I haven't officially met Edward due to the fact he was always studying about the Philosopher's stone, our only chance. After the meeting with Mustang, Al told me their story of their mother and their quest to bring her back. Edward doesn't yet know that I know. He feels that they shouldn't tell anyone. "How long will the surgery and rehabilitation take?"
"I'd say about three years more or less."
"I'll do it in one."
*Gasp* "You'll have yourself spitting blood you know that?"
"I'll also do it in one."
"Are you two sure?"
We both nod and then Edward turns to Al. "Just hold in there a little longer okay? Then we're gonna get yo your body back. I promise."
"Right. And well we're at it, we'll get you two your bodies back too."
We nod at him, both of us set with determination.
