Chapter 3: A Door

Edward opens the door to his dorm room, drops his suit case, and sluggishly goes strait to the bedroom, already half asleep as it is, in where he plops down exhausted and closes his eyes for who knows how long, until the phone rings.

He opens one eye and stares at the infernal racket, known as a phone, next to his bed, which seems to not want to go away, he groans and roles over, picking up the phone in the process “Hello?”

“Hey Ed, make it there alright?”

He groans even more closing his eyes “Is there a reason for this call or did you call to make my life more miserable then it already is?”

“Heh, what’s got you in a cranky mood? I mean it’s only seven.”

He looks over to the clock and groans even more “Lets just say I only got to bed a half hour ago, now what do ya want?” he says getting frustrated and fighting the urge just to hang up right now.

“Ed we just wanted to find out what he wanted? NOW TELL?! The curiosity is killing me”

Ed opens his eyes fully, smirking sinisterly as one word comes to mind “Classified.” he slams the phone down and unplugs it for the next five hours, he covers his head with a pillow and sighs “I’m going to pay for that tomorrow.”

--Riza POV (Central) 12:00--

Riza walks around the office making sure everything is in proper working order so she could go home and get some sleep for tonight, when she notices a certain Colonel trying to sneak out to buy those horrid truffles that he loves so much, she clears her throat from behind him and he jumps like a little kid caught in a cookie jar “Oh Lt. Hawkeye, what can I do for you?” he asks trying to get into her good graces.

She secretly smiles sinisterly at him “I still have some papers for you to sign.” pulling them out behind her back.

He hangs his head and retreats to his office “Yes Lt. Hawkeye it will be done in no time.” he says going back to his desk, when he stops in front of it ready for the paper work, looking utterly defeated.

She smirks to herself as she goes through the paper work ‘that’ll show him about skipping work hours.’ she thinks to herself, but she didn’t notice Havoc in the room stretching out lazily and sound asleep, when she walked by and accidentally trips over his foot, and bye, bye paper work.

She closes her eyes tightly waiting for the impact, but it never came, she slowly opens her eyes to see she was caught by none other then her secret affection Colonel Roy Mustang, she blushes a bright crimson “I’m so sorry, Sir.” he looks at her amusedly as she tries to stutter out her apologies, but then notices he still has a hold of her and hurriedly takes his hands off blushing a light pink, she tries to hide the hurt in her eyes, but the Colonel seems to not notice as he dismisses the subject.

Then she hears a snore coming from the chair she tripped on. She turns in that direction, drawing her guns in a fraction of a time that she normally does, firing five shots around a startled looking Havoc, he stares wide eyed at his attacker “What did I do?” he asks fearfully as Mustang laughs in total amusement.

----------------------------------------------------

--22:00 hours(10:00 p.m)--

He comes out of the bathroom after a hot shower, with only a towel around his waist, (Just had to put that in) he dresses quickly in his clean cloths and heads for the door. He reaches for his jacket when he abruptly stops as he hears a soft beat.

Scanning the room for the sound only to look out the window to notice the rain; that continuously beats against the window and the distant roar of the Thunder “It’s raining?” he says out loud to himself and then smirks at the irony of it all ‘No matter how much it rains it can never erase the sins that have been committed in my life.’ he throws his crimson jacket on and starts to walk to HQ, he sighs in defeat ‘tonight won’t be any different.’

He walks silently forward, wrapping his coat more securely around him in the chilly rain, until he reaches HQ in which he rushes in to get out of the cold, shutting the door as quietly as he can behind him.

He turns around and looks at the poorly lit corridor ’I must be the only one here so far,’ he thinks to himself as he begins to walk forward, down to the Colonel’s office where a light was being emitted from.

He walks in quietly only to see Riza filling files furiously, with hurt reflecting in her eyes and angry mumbling to herself about ‘idiot men’ he clears his throat announcing his presence, she stops and turns around smiling at him “Full Metal I didn’t hear you come in.”

He laughs at her lightly “I didn’t think you would mumbling about men being idiots.” he says taking a seat on the Colonel’s couch.

She sighs in defeat “I guess I’m not really sure why he didn’t take that chance.” she says more to herself then to Ed.

He lifts an eyebrow in amusement “I’m guessing the ‘he’ you would be referring to the Colonel?” he asks her curiously when she nods, he shakes his head “You defiantly could do better.” she huffs a little in thought for a moment and then turns to the fire when the others begin to gather in.

Hughes was the first to enter he waves at them “Hey Ed, you still in that mood you were in last night?” he asks still remembering the night before clearly.

He looks at him not answering, when the Colonel comes in and smirks “Probably not after all the whining the baby Full Metal did last night.”

“WHO ARE YOU CALLING SO SMALL THAT STILL SUCKS ON HIS THUMB?!” Edward fumes, glaring daggers at anyone who approaches him clearly saying ‘say something more and you lose your teeth’ mostly at the Colonel though.

“Colonel I believe we have things to do.” Riza says getting her guns out ready to shoot if someone one says a thing to keep them from not doing their job.

He clears his throat and nods “Your quite right.”

---------------------------------------------------------

--Fuher‘s base--

They arrive at the base where the Fuher is working supposedly late at night, a mile high brick fence and a gate just as high if not more surrounded the building but there was something there that wasn‘t supposed to be, and that just ticked Edward off, he glares slightly at the slightly dazed Colonel “Alright now that we’re here oh Colonel what should we do now that there are guards where there shouldn’t be.”

He looks over at the towers and the gate “I’m thinking Midget.”

Hughes quickly covers Ed’s mouth before he blew a gasket, he looks around the compound “Colonel just a suggestion why don’t we split up and look for a way in.” the Colonel thinks that over a minute before he nods.

“Alright, Feury and Havoc will try to go forward, you and Edward will go right, and me and the beautiful Lt. Riza Hawkeye will go to the left, we will report back here in five minutes to see if we have found something.” he says smirking.

Riza sighs in exaggeration ‘I fall into his hands and he pushes me away we go on a mission in front of everyone he wants to buddy-buddy, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH HIM?!’ she growls to herself.

They role their eyes and nod as they sigh in defeat they go their separate ways, Hughes and Edward head to the right and around the corner until the other four were out of sight.

Ed shakes his head as they begin to walk to the base "Mustang is delusional."

"Probably." Hughes chuckles and then looks to his side as Ed walks forward silently looking for a way in, until they see an opening, Hughes grins at him “Looks like it’s our lucky day.” he starts to enter buts stops abruptly when he notices his travel companion wasn’t following.

“Hughes maybe we should get the others.” He says to him looking over the wall fidgeting with his coat slightly.

Hughes grins even more “Oh come on Ed, you can’t really be scared of a big bad wall are we?”

He shakes his head “No that’s not it.”

“Then come on we can’t wait for the others and I promise to show you more pictures of Alicia.” he says waving one of them in front of his face as he goes in.

Ed looks reluctant but goes in anyways “Then why do I have a bad feeling about this.” he mumbles to himself as he looks around.

“Looks like we came at a bad time.” he walks on with a reluctant Edward by his side.

-----------------------------------------------------

--Riza and Roy--

They had been walking for a while and nothing seems to be open in the wall she looks at the wall frustrated ’Isn’t it obvious I’m interested or do I have to actually scream at him?’ she looks back at him and sighs “Sir, I don’t think any things back here.”

Roy looks over the wall and sighs “I think your correct,” he stops for a moment then smirks “so when I become Fuher what kind of mini skirts should you wear?” he looks at her cattishly.

Her left eye twitches a moment “I don’t know Sir, but I can guarantee I won’t be wearing one.” she says looking at him fully she sighs again ’maybe Full Metals right maybe I can do better.’

Roy sighs in defeat, hanging his head “It was worth a shot lets head back.”

She turns around leaving him behind “Yes Sir,” he stares back at her in shock for a moment before running to catch up with her and then begin to walk, until they reach the front again.

“Colonel?” Havoc says coming up to him.

He looks at him not interested “Yes?”

“Have you seen Major Hughes or Full Metal?” Feury says coming up to them as well panting heavily from the run.

He looks at them confused then to the side they went “No we haven’t where is the shrimp?” they shake their head and begin to walk to where Hughes and Edward went.

---------------------------------------------------------

--Ed and Hughes--

They lean against the wall in exhaustion from running from traps and the guards, Ed sighs and turns a glare in Hughes’ direction “Now can we go back?”

Hughes laughs nervously and nods his head “I think it would be best,” he looks at the floor “now only we have to not step on the traps.” he says looking thoughtful.

He roles his eyes “For an intelligence operative you sure don’t show it.” he leans against the wall fully waiting for him to ask him what he thinks he’s going to ask him.

Hughes blinks twice and rubes his head sheepishly “Oh yeah you’re an Alchemist aren’t ya.” he chuckles at his stupidity as Ed roles his eyes again in exaggeration. He transmutes the whole hall into one solid piece of stone with no traps, Hughes blinks making sure what he is seeing isn’t a illusion “Hey a door.” he points to it across the hall.

He begins to walk forward as Ed sighs again and begins to walk with him trying to persuade him into turning back, but not having any luck he knows something’s wrong, but he can’t get him to turn back with out Hughes.

--To Be Continued--

Sorceress-Arghh

Riza-What’s up with you?

Sorceress- I can’t seem to get Ed’s personality right it’s like he’s bipolar or schizophrenic or something

Ed-HEY I AM NOT BIPOLAR OR SCIZOPHRENIC!

Sorceress-could of fooled me and I will not update unless I have at least three reviews and I can guarantee you don’t want to miss the next chapter or the next.
