--Last Chapter--

“I have tried to cleanse by sins with everything,” he stops suddenly looking at her questioningly before continuing “But no matter how much I try it will never leave, never be washed away like the rain does for the earth. I continue to move forward never forgetting the sins of my past, but remembering them to give me strength and power to overcome the obstacles that stand in my path I never forget my sins have you?”

She looks at him startled and wide eyed before moving to her feet and thinks back to why she joined the military in the first place “No I haven’t.”

He nods “Use that to your advantage and everything will be fine.” was the last thing he said before silence came in between them, except on shadow that looks sadly at him knowing that he grew up way to soon then he was supposed to.

Chapter 8: An Unsuspected Guest

“Well has he been here yet?” Clara asks finally revealing herself in record time with her Psiren getup on, she looks at them both and smirks.

“No not yet.” Riza says quietly as she looks unsurely at Ed but he isn’t paying attention to anyone but at a distant dark figure coming up to them.

“Did I interrupt something?” she asks as she winks at Riza making her go red in embarrassment.

“No, no nothing.” she waves hands franticly trying to hurry and dismiss the subject.

She smirks even more “Right,” then goes up to Ed and puts an arm around his waist making him looks up “I hope it’s nothing because no one comes between me and my Eddy boy.” she says squeezing him tightly.

Ed just roles his eyes and sighs “Right.”

“WHAT DO YOU MEAN RIGHT?” Riza yells in disbelief and anger.

Clara looks up to her innocently “If I didn’t know any better I would say we were jealous.”

Riza blinks “No I didn’t say anything like that.” she bits her lip ‘Great now I sound like the jealous girlfriend or ex-girlfriend.’

Clara winks at her finally letting him go “Don’t worry me and Ed are close just not that close .” she smirks to herself ‘At least not yet’

“Why am I to much for you?” he asks smirking at her.

She looks back to him and smirks “No but a bit short.”

His eye twitches “SHORT?!”

“Hello Alchemists.” the dark figure says to them.

They all turn to the dark figure Ed was watching but forgot about “Huh?”

--Back at Central--

Roy has had a lot of work to do since he became General but he still had a little farther to go to obtain his goal to become Fuher but he was getting there steadily and slowly. He sighs as he leans back he really didn’t like paper work ‘Why did I want to become Fuher again? It is incredibly dull doing paper work’ he asks himself.

“Sir?” a timid voice asks as she knocks.

He sighs in annoyance putting his head in his right hand as he looks over a document one more time “Come in,” She walks in quietly as he finally looks up and blinks in astonishment “And you are?”

She salutes “I am First Lieutenant Maria Ross reporting the activities of the trial.” She stops and lays the report on his desk.

He clears his throat and looks down at the work “I see.” he says skimming down through the work signing when needed when he abruptly stops looking up to her “This is very good.”

She smiles softly and nods “Thank you Sir.” and bows once more “If there is nothing more to discuss?”

He blinks a couple times “Oh um why haven’t I ever seen you around?” he mentally growls at himself ‘suave real suave’.

“I’m in Major Armstrong’s unit or I was.” she says a bit embarrassed.

He looks up at her surprised “So your being transferred?”

She blushes and looks down “Yeah I believe it’s your unit.”

He smiles at her “I look forward to your company then.”

She blushes looking down “I do to.” she mumbles to herself.

Mustang looks up to the clock and notices it’s almost seven and then back at her and smirks “Why don’t we get out of here and I buy you dinner to get to know you better?”

She looks up at him startled and blushes an even more crimson red. “I’d like that.”

“Good lets go.”

She looks at him startled “But your paper work?”

He looks down at it and dismisses “I’ll do it later.” he picks up his coat and leads her out “So where are you from?”

She steps out of the office and looks at him “I’ve been at Central all my life.” he nods

A young woman with brown hair and a dress suit on comes up to them “Excuse me.“ she says coming up to them with a smile ”But do you by chance know when the Elric brothers are coming back?”

He looks at her surprised “I sent the older brother on a mission and then vacation.” He looks at her confusedly “How do you know them?”

She smirks at him “We’ve met once or twice.” she says and leaves with out another word.

“That was strange.” Maria says looking back at her.

Roy nods in agreement “I think I should call Ed tomorrow and see if every things all right.”

She nods in agreement as the young woman they met not to long ago disappears "I think we're going to be seeing a bit more often too."

--Aquroya--

Ed looks at him, eyes sharpening in calculation and ferocity “So you’re the Alchemist who’s been using humans to experiment on?”

Riza looks back at him with surprised disgust “EXPERIMENT? I think we forgot to mention a few things.”

“Good luck doll.” Clara says smirking “We’ll take care of his little pets.”

She looks forward and sees chimera’s coming toward them with deformation “I created them to be the ultimate fighting companion but if you still wish to go ahead they won’t die.”

“I’ve heard of you Jason your also known as the Chimera Master,” Clara eyeing him distastefully.

“He smirks your correct I’m the one who taught Tucker everything he knew about chimera’s and he stole my accursed idea to use a human with part of a chimera and he became the state Alchemist and not I.” he says bitterly but then smirks once more “But enough talk lets get on with the battle.” he says as he begins to get ready to charge.
