NOTE----Again, I do not own any of the characters, but I do own Lilly.
"Where are we going?" Lilly asked as they bored the train.
"Back home. We have to tell Mustang what we found out from that man." Ed answered.
"Oh." She sat quietly untill a question poped in her head. "Why did those men touch me yesterday?"
"Some people are perverts and will do anything to have fun even if it means rapeing an innocent girl." Ed said not looking at her.
"What does rape mean?" Lilly asked casually.
Al and Ed both blushed. Lilly asked again once she saw their faces. Ed had no idea how to explain rape or anything along the lines of it to her. He had never been put in a position like that before. Should I tell her the truth? What if she asked more questions? I had better think of something quick!--Ed thought.
"It is when someone is forced to do something they don't want to do." Ed replied
"Like what?" Lilly asked.
"What do you know! We are here! Let's go before the train takes off again!" Ed yelled as he ran for the door leaving poor Al with the curious girl.
------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------
They walked in the Headquarters with Lilly slowly walking behind them. She was confused and no one would answer her questions. She had asked Ed and Al over and over about rape on the way there, yet they never spoke. She was so mad and at the same time upset. She walked to her room and sat on her bed. She had remembered what Hawkeye had told her about boys and girls. They were different and that was all she said. She wanted to know what it was that made them different. Hawkeye told her that women had periods and men didn't, and she knew all about periods, but she was sure that there was more than just that. Lilly knew that Hawkeye wouldn't tell her more than that so she would have to find out on her own. That was the problem, though. How would she find out on her own if she had no idea were to start or what she was trying to find?
Lilly got up and walked outside then layed down on the grass. She watched the clouds change shapes and blow by. Soon, it started to get dark and lyeing there made it easy to drift off to sleep. Before she knew it, she was asleep.
"Brother, Lilly isn't in her room. I can't find her. Have you seen her?" Al asked his brother who was writing in his book.
"No, I haven't." Ed didn't look up from his book untill the words actually hit him. "Wait. You mean she is missing?!?"
Ed shot up from his seat and took off. He search every inch of the place with Al right behind him. They finally decided to check outside and saw her asleep under the setting sun.
"She must have fell asleep and forgot to tell anyone she was going outside." Al said scooping her up.
"Al, someone is out there."Ed said pointing at the edge of the woods. "I think there is more than one."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, they move around and I can see them. Get Lilly inside and get Mustang."
"Right!"
Al started towards the door when a man in an all black, tight outfit and a black mask jumped out in between Al and the door. Al took a few steps back. He knew he couldn't risk Lilly getting hurt. He soon relized that he and Ed were surrounded by a bunch of men wearing the same outfit.
"Brother, What do we do?"
"Wake Lilly up. We are going to have to fight."
Al sat Lilly down and gently woke her while Ed made sure no one tryed anything. Lilly sat up and noticed that she was with Ed and Al only that they were surrounded. Al helped her up, then made her get between him and Ed. She did as Al instructed and kept quite.
"All we want is the girl. Hand her over and we will go." One of the men said.
"What do you want with her?" Ed asked.
"None of you business. We have been looking for her for almost six months. She is our property."
"She is a human being. She is no ones property." Al protested.
"Hand her over or we will take her by force!"
"In case you haven't noticed, you are at an Alchemy Headquarter. You don't stand a chance!" Ed yelled.
"Everyone of us are Alchemist as well."
Ed gasped but didn't move. Lilly watched as one of the men took a step towards them. Al moved in front of her.
"You can't have her!" Al yelled.
That is all it took. Suddenly a huge rock came from the ground and split Al and Lilly up. Lilly screamed. Ed sprung into action. With a instant he created a cage around Lilly.
"Al! Go get Mustang! I'll hold them off!"
"I won't leave you, Brother!"
With that said, everyone began. Huge rocks were being tossed like they were paper. Ed threw his own useing alchmey and Al did his best to keep anyone of getting to close to the cage. Mustang must have heard the fighting because he soon came out with an army of his own. It seemed that the more people they thought they had knocked out, the more came in it's place. Fire flew through the air, blood mix in with the sweat and all of it was because of one girl. One of the cage bars began to be melted away and a black outfited man grabed Lilly. She screamed but no one seemed to hear her because of the fighting. She kicked the man and fell on the ground. Quickly, she got up and ran to where Al was. He noticed her and told her to stay close. Soon, a yell came from Ed. She turned quickly to see his auto-mail arm being shattered to pieces with a huge rock. Lilly cryed out as tears ran down her cheeks.
this is all my fault. i have to end it. i have to make it stop. i have to........
Suddenly Lilly's eyes and necklace started to glow red. A red transmution circle apeared on her forehead. Her body lifted into the air about five feet. Everyone stopped to look at her. Mustang took this as a chance to call back his men while the enemy watched in amazement. Once all of Mustang's men were behind Lilly, he knew she was about to do something bad.
"Everyone! Get inside now!" Mustang yelled
"What about Lilly!" Al yelled.
"Thats an order!" He yelled.
Al helped Ed inside and everyone gathered around the windows. The enemy tryed to run, but it was to late. Lilly widened her eyes and with one movement from her right arm, everyone of the got cut to a million pieces by an invisible force. She would have done the same to the others if it wasn't for Mustang ordering them to get inside. Once she noticed no one was left alive, the red circle left her forehead and the glowing stopped. Lilly's body fell from the air and hit the ground. She didn't move. Mustang instucked everyone to stay inside. He walked slowly towards and looked down at her. She was covered in blood but this time none of it was hers. Mustang picked her up and took her inside. Everyone watch as he laid her down and faced them.
"Everyone get cleaned up and tend to your wounds. Ed, call Winry and tell her to get over here and fix you. Tommorow we will discuss this, but for now ,everyone, just get some sleep."
---------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------
"Hi. Winry? I need you to come down here. I had an accident. I need a new arm."
------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------
Winry got off the train and was meet by Armstrong and Ross. She smile as they grabed her suitcases and walked her to the car. She was excited to get to see Ed and Al, exspecially Ed. As soon as she got there she marched up to Ed's room to yell at him, but when she walked in she found a girl sitting beside him in his bed. She gasped, and tried to hide it. Ed smiled but was a little weirded out that he hadn't got yelled at.
"Hi, Winry." Ed said scratching the back of his head.
"Hi." She said blankly.
Al walked in and said hi too. He handed Lilly and Ed a sandwitch and offered one to Winry but she said no.
"Winry, this is Lilly. We....uh.....found her." Ed laughed.
"Hi, Lilly."
"Hello." Lilly turned to face Ed. "Can I stay and watch you put on your new arm?"
"I don't think it would be a good idea. It's really painfull for me and I don't want you to see me like that. Why don't you and Al go color in your room untill I am done?"
"ok."
"Don't go outside. I don't want anything to happen to you."
"I won't." she smiled
Lilly got out of his bed and stumbled a little. Al caught her before she fell.
"I guess you still haven't recovered from your experience yesterday." Al said.
"Thank you for helping me."she replied with a smile.
They left and as soon as Winry was sure that they were out of hearing range she began with questioning. As she and Ed prepared of Ed's new arm, Ed explained everything he could about Lilly. He told Winry about the day before and how no one has spoken of it since. Lilly barly remembers anything about it. All she knows is that she did something powerful, because it took alot of her energy. Ed had decided to tell everyone not to tell Lilly that she had killed people. He didn't think she was ready to know.
"So you know nothing about her?" Winry asked.
"Yeah, all I know is what I told you. I am going to find out all I can about her now. I hope that as soon as I figure her out, I can help her. She seems so confussed."
"You really care about her, huh?" Winry asked in a low voice.
"I'm not sure..." he answered honestly.
Ed's scream filled the air as his arm was put into place. An hour later, Mustang came in to tell him that everyone is gathered to discuss Lilly. Ed and Winry followed him to a huge room where everyone was. Lilly saw Ed and her and Al joined him.
She smiled when she noticed his new arm. Mustang walked in front of the group and cleared his voice.
"As we have all noticed, Lilly is not like a normal human." Lilly looked at Ed with fear in her eyes. "She is extremly powerful. I think she was created as a weapon to use against someone or something. Yesterday those men wanted her, and I think she can't controll her power. If she could she wouldn't have done what she did. Something trigered her to do that and untill we can find out what, we need to protect her at all cost from those men. If they get her there is no telling what they will use her for. Ed and Al are her guardians and untill further notice, she will be with them at all times. We still have no idea what she is capable of but as long as she is with us she will be safe form those men. This is also for our safty as well. Don't treat her any differently than you would yourselves. She is now extremly important to us as well as those men. We can not let them get to her. The security around this place has been doubled. Be on guard at all times. We can not take our chances. Dismissed."
Lilly was looking down as everyone left the room. Ed lifted her chin to look at her.
"This is all my fault..."she whispered.
"No it's not. If you wouldn't have done what you did, a lot of us may not be standing." Ed objected.
"I don't get it. What did I do?"
"It doesn't matter." He smiled and she smiled back. "Come on, lets get some hot chocholate. I will make you feel better."
Winry watched them walk away with Al behind them. She murdered over 60 people and yet they act as if she is perfect. Why? What is so important about her? Why does Ed seem so....involved with her?
