What was that smell? It was like…bacon and eggs? Everything is blurry when I open one of my eyes. In front of my was the door, illuminated by a light source to my left. I look over to said direction towards the kitchen, and there was Al cooking up some breakfast.

"Good morning Bree!" He happily says as he flips some eggs. My mind still foggy with sleep, I mumble 'hey' while cracking my back; which was greeted with a lot of pops.

"What time is it?" I ask while yawning.

"About eight." he responses, turning back to the stove. I hum as I stand up, stretching my arms above my head. "Well, uh, breakfast is about ready, I just need a couple of minutes." Sighing, I let my arms drop.

"Aright, it smells good Al!" I smile at him, "Do you need any help?" One thing that most people don't know about me is that I can't cook. I always find a way to screw up the recipe or set the kitchen on fire. On second thought, maybe that was a bad idea to ask him.

"I think I'm about done, but thanks anyway!"

"Yeah, sure. By the way, where's Ed?" I ask and was answered by a loud snore. Looking over to the bed, I saw the FullMetal Alchemist among the scattered bed sheets. He was in a funky position facing up with his hair scattered about his head…And he had no shirt on. I turn around to face the door, my face heating up. It's not that I haven't seen a guy without his shirt on in person…It's that I've never seen a hot guy without a shirt on in person. I mean come on, he's literally ripped! With a whole six pack and everything! And his automail and scars just….uh!

"Bree?" Al of course sees my expression and has to worry.

"Uh-uh I'm fine," I hum, my embarrassment growing each passing second. "Wait, when does our train leave?" I suddenly ask, remembering that Ed never told us; or me at least.

"I don't know, maybe we should wake him?" Al suggest, walking over to him but was stopped by me grabbing his arm.

"Wait, I got an idea." Smirking, I rush to the fridge to find a certain substance that Ed despises. Grabbing the carton, I walk to the side of the bed.

"Don't do that!" Al exclaims, grabbing the arm I held the milk in.

"This is for snooping in my bag! He has to learn his lesson right?" Letting go of my arm, Al nods his head.

"Yeah I guess so…"Al says, still unsure by the idea.

"Alright, go back to the kitchen and pretend to cook. After I dump it on him, I'm running to the bathroom. Got it?" He again nods his head and goes to his post. I know that he's going to kill me for this, but hey. YOLO! I splash the milk all over his head, running for my life to the bathroom. Behind me, Ed sputters in surprise and rolls onto the floor with a thump. I close the door as silently as I could and start to run the water, setting the carton on the counter. I stifle my laughs as I hear Ed scream bloody murder.

"WHERE THE HELL IS SHE!" He roars, stomping around the room. Dude, can't you hear the facet running? Idiot…

"She's been in the bathroom this whole time brother," Al says to him. Note to self, if I ever need to pull a prank on Ed, ask Al for assistance. Hearing Ed storm closer to the bathroom, I quickly place the carton in the cabinet below the sink; hiding it in the back in case he searches for it. While splashing water on my face, Ed slams the door open. His face and chest covered in the white substance.

"Haven't you ever heard of knocking?" I smirk at him, drying my face with a towel. "Anyway, what happened to you?"

"You know damn well what happened to me!" He howls, throwing his arms around in the air like a kid throwing a fit.

"Then why did I ask you? And can you please put on a freaking shirt?"

"No! You better apologize for what you did to me! It should be illegal! Milk should be illegal!" He yells as I walk past him to where my bag was sitting; which was at the head to the couch.

"Why, this was an act of revenge…" I say in a scholar-like voice, "For what you did to my stuff last night!" I growl at him, packing up my stuff.

"That was last night! And why do girls hold grudges anyways!"

"Um, guys…" Al starts, but compared to us; was out voiced.

"We hold grudges until the people apologize for what they did!"

"Well you're not getting one out of me!"

"Then I'll make your life hell!"

"Guys!" Al finally yells, after trying to get our attention a couple of times.

"WHAT!" We both yell at him, turning simultaneously in his direction.

"When does the train leave?"

"Around eight thirty!" Ed says annoyed, turning back to me to yell again.

"But that's in five minutes…" We all stop in our tracks for a couple of moments for the information to sink in. Then we all spazz out, throwing our stuff together, and rushing out the door in a panic. We ran down the street towards the train station. Ed and Al are running as fast as they could, I felt like this was a jog. Sure, my bag was heavy; but this was nothing! I'm so happy that I did a lot of sports!

"Man, you guys are so slow," I say jokingly to them, keeping a steady pace.

"What, you wanna go?! Let's go!" Ed bellows, probably still mad at me. He races in front of us, pumping his arms and legs dramatically.

"Brother!" Al yells after him.

"Hey Al," he looks at me while I hand him my bag, "Hold this." I say demonically as I start heading after Ed. "I'm going to get you Elric!" I scream at the top of my lungs, easing into a full out run.

Catching up to him effortlessly, I smirk. He literally huffs out smoke through his nostrils. Laughing, I start to pass him; seeing the train station up ahead. The wind whipping my hair, its coolness of the morning cutting through to my skin. Sliding to the front of the station, I throw an arm up in the air.

"And this is why girls rule the world!" I yell, turning back to see Ed wheezing with his hands on his knees; Al finally pulls in too. My guess is that his armor is really heavy and it's hard to run in that get up. "Ha! I won!"

"You cheated…" Ed mumbles as he regains his breath and stands up fully.

"How?!" I exclaim as we all head towards the ticket booth. We hand the dude the tickets. "I did not cheat!"

"Yes you did! You're on steroids or something!" Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Al talking to the ticket guy.

"How the hell am I to get steroids if I barely have money?!"

"Hey! Our train's leaving!"Al suddenly turns our heads to see a train pulling out of the station. We immediately run after it, Al in the lead still carrying my back pack. He grabs the rail and pulls himself up with ease. Will I be able to do that? Next was Ed, who reaches his hand out to Al for support. Then it was my turn. The train was going really fast by that time. I was giving out everything I got just to keep up!

"Give us your hands!" Al yells while reaching his hand out to grab mine, Ed doing the same. I jump, reaching out both hands to grab theirs. And thankfully, I make it. Hosting me up, we all collapse on the small platform.

"Dudes, that was a close one." I sigh, running my hands through my hair, having my cap in my bag.

"It's your fault…"Ed breathes to my right.

"And who was it who A: didn't tell us when the trains leaves and B: was sleeping in?" I sass him.

"Haven't you guys fought enough already?" Al sighs to my left.

"Alright Al, let's get inside." I sigh, standing up and looking around us. The sky about us was a brilliant orange and yellow rising from my left. Turning towards the ball of flames, it starts to warm my face up with a breeze blowing towards me. I smile into it, not having the time in my world to enjoy the mornings.

"Come on." Ed almost orders, opening the door. I tear myself away and walk into the car which was empty. Great, now they can't refrain from questions. Alone in a car with these two for who knows how long, this should be entertaining to some extent. I randomly sit down around the middle of the car, with Ed and Al following me.

"Here." Al says handing me my bag as I slump down.

"Thanks Al!" I exclaim while I search through my bag. Once I was certain everything was there and not damaged, I pull out my cap.

"What's that symbol mean? Some mafia thing?" Ed asks, sitting next to me since Al kind of took up most of the corresponding bench.

"You mean my cap?" I ask, holding it in my lap facing it towards us. He nods, curiosity filling his golden orbs. "It's from a superhero comic book."

"What's a superhero comic book?" Al asks, interested in the conversation.

"Well, a superhero is a person with special powers who uses them to help people and fights bad guys. And a comic book is like a novel but uses pictures." Remembering I have a manga book in my bag, I quickly fish it out. The manga was 'Ouran High School host Club', I still haven't finished the series yet since I'm only on book nine. It's ironic that Tamaki and Edward have the same voice actor. Ha-ha! Ed flips through the book, showing Al also.

"That's weird." Ed simply puts it, handing me back my book. Well fine then, but that's saying your weird since your story started out as a manga book!

"Hey, it keeps me entertained." I shrug, slumping back into my seat more to get comfortable. But the Elrics were ready to run their mouths.

"Is there anything we can know about you?" Al asks, leaning towards me slightly.

"Uh…I'm 15?" I didn't know what they were referring to, so maybe the basics were the best start.

"When's you birthday?"

"September 1st."

"Where do you go to school?"

"Um…Grand Junction High School?" Is it alright to tell them my school? Oh well, too late.

"And where is that?" Ed questions, eyeing me.

"Somewhere on Earth." He groans in response, leaning back in the bench. Smirking, I look back towards Al. "Anything else?" He ponders for a moment.

"What's your favorite color?" he asks, not being able to think of anything else.

"Really Al…" Ed mocks, "You couldn't think of anything better?"

"I'm trying to start a conversation!" Al almost whines towards him.

"Red and black, green and black, and red and gold;" I say, while they look at me oddly. "I have my favorite color combinations. One color just doesn't cut it for me," I explain. Ed's still looking at me like I was nuts, but Al at least shakes his head in understanding.

"Who's in your family?"

"My mom, dad, my bro David, and my dog Shelby." Nothing about my family could do any harm right?

"Since when is a dog included in a family?" Ed questions rudely.

"Since when you were short, so for a very long time," I sass again. His face turns a very interesting color of red, but he doesn't say anything. "So…where are we heading anyways?" I ask, maybe getting my mind set in the timeline

"Oh, we're going to East City to study at a man named Shou Tuckers house." My heart drops twenty floors. Dude, I'm going to start crying or something. I hate this part in the story…but maybe I could change it? Could I save Nina from her father? I could at least try, right?

"Ok, why?" Of course I knew the answer to that, but I'm trying to act like I don't know anything!

"We want to do some research on chimeras." Ed glares at him, saying 'if you tell her one more word I'm going to kill you!' "But that's because…um…" Al frets, trying to think of a good answer.

"Hey, I'm not telling you guys everything about me so what gives you the right to tell me," I say, shrugging like it wasn't a big deal.

"Oh…ok."

For the next hour or so, we didn't say much. We were lost in our own little worlds. I had my ear buds in, listening to the Disney 'World of Color' soundtrack from 2014. Hey, I love Disney and I'm obsessed with their songs! :3

But I couldn't get Nina out of my mind no matter what! I even tried to think of Disney movies and it still didn't work. Once I got here, I was really hoping that I would arrive after that took place. But thanks Truth for putting me in the part where I actually cried!

Maybe I could save her? Its might not be possible, but I could try. But I have no experience of fighting and stopping people from doing something they'll regret! Especially a full grown dude! I wasn't as strong as some of my guy friends, and I'm defiantly not the kind of person who takes action quickly. Well, anything other than sports anyways. I'm always thinking someone else would do what needs to be done. But it's all up to me since I was the only one here that knows what's going to occur.

Except I'm scared. I'm so scared of standing up in what I believe in what's right. Usually, I just go with the flow. But knowing that I could save a life that's innocent, which out weights which? I gotta do it; maybe that's the reason I'm here. Perhaps Truth put me here just to save Nina? I highly doubt it, but I can still dream, right?

I lean my head against the cooling glass, about to nod off since I haven't slept well in the last couple of nights. But Ed (I'm assuming its Ed) had to pull one of my ear buds out and make me flinch in surprise. Who doesn't hate being woken up from sleep!? Tuning to him, I glare.

"What?" I growl at him, thinking about yanking my earbud back.

"What are these?" He turns it over in his hand, studying it. An evil idea comes to my mind, and I want to see Ed's reaction to it.

"Put it in your ear and find out." I smirk, searching through my songs for one particular song. Hesitantly, he puts it in his ear as I found it. And I hit play.

Cannibal by Kesha was playing. I deliberately choose this song because I knew Ed was going to have a hilarious expression on his face after it ended.

The song ends and look up to see Ed's face. And let me tell you, it was the funniest thing I've ever saw! Oh my goodness, I just had to take a picture of it and I did. He was grossed out, shocked, and freaked out that I listen to these kinds of songs. I died that day, just from Edward's face. Al looked so confused, and he should be.

"What were you doing?" he asks, hesitant.

"You don't want to know…" Ed mumbles.

"Hey, not all of my songs are like that! Here." I exclaim, remembering that there was no one in the car except for us. I start to play 'Radioactive' by imagine Dragons out loud. I start singing softly as I turn it to full volume, making my own harmonies in the chorus. I think they like it…but I couldn't really tell since Al was an armor dude and Ed acts like he hates everything.

"So that's music from where you're from?" Al asks at the end of the song.

"Yep, and there's all different genres of music too," I explain, "If you want I can show you."

"Sure!"

"I don't know why you guys are getting so caught up in music…" Ed grumbles.

"Excuse me sir, but without music life would be a mistake," I hiss at him. Nobody and I mean nobody; can bash music in front of me. Music is my life! The best part of my school day is when I get to go to band! (And I love lunch too!)

So for the next hour, I showed Al all different kinds of music and artist. Everything from Carrie Underwood, Draughty, One Republic, Imagine Dragons, Nightcore, and even some Disney songs. He likes the Disney songs the best :3 All through this, I caught Ed looking over at it curiously and tap his foot slightly to the beat. But once he caught me gaze he would grunt and turn around. And I didn't noticed when I fell asleep after I was done showing Al, my head leaning against the cool window.

(Ed)

I admit her song box thing she calls an IPod was pretty fascinating. But like I was going to show it! That'll ruin my reputation. I was just relived when she fell asleep.

"So what do you think brother?" Al whispers to me, trying not to wake her.

"I don't know…But she seems to know about us…" I ponder, putting my hand on my chin.

"What do you mean? You're the famous 'defender of the people'."

"But how did when know your name? And how did she know to call me Ed?"

"Well…I don't know. But one thing that bugs me is that she's not really interested about my body. Even last night when she woke up from a nightmare; she didn't question why I was up so late."Scrunching up my eyebrows, I try to think of all the possible answers. The Coronel could've spoken to her about us. Or she could be some psycho stalking us.

"But I'm curious where she's from. Her technology is so advanced…" I think out loud.

"Yeah, but she'll probably tell us the more she gets to know us."

"How do you know that Al?"

"Because I spend time with her," he stresses, "but you seem to be avoiding her."

"There's something about her that I don't like. Whenever we try to bring certain topics up she seems to go tense." Something in here eye's screams panic. She's hiding something that she doesn't want to tell anyone about. Like it's a life or death situation that she can't say anything about.

Lost in thought, something suddenly plops on my lap. And when I look down, I see Bree's head, facing in Alphones's direction. The urge to push her off suddenly hit me, and I was about to do it too. But Al stops me, shaking his head no.

"Just let her sleep brother. She probably hasn't slept well in days." Al whispers to me. I groan as I lean my head back on the bench. And I even fell asleep too.

A/N: Hiya guys! Another update! Whohoo! :D

So how was everybodies Spring Break? i was so dead the last time i post so I forgot to ask D: But never late than never right? (Think i said that right...)

She almosted killed me for what i did... So anyway, intersting part to come up and i'm really excited for further updating!

Also, Bree gets to hang out with Ed more and argues with him :) i know it's really cliche to have the OC and Ed fight but it was really fun for me. I never wrote a fight that was like a teasing, arguement so tell me how it went?!

Ok guys, remember to like, fav, whatever you do! Oh and a reveiw would give me life! :D

Thank you my awesome readers!
