“Congratulations!” Roy told his niece. He changed his expression from a smile of joy to a frown of seriousness. “The Furher has given you the code name `The Element Alchemist'. He has also given you a mission. [Elina looked at her uncle surprised] you are to investigate a town called Hasenko….hmmm… What's with the look?” He had noticed her expression and also looked at her with an expression of his own. “I …thought that …once I became a state alchemist that I could conduct my own investigations.” “You can…once you have completed your duties as a state alchemist.” `But…I.” “You are a dog of the state now….and dogs must obey their masters…you leave tomorrow…your job is to investigate the disappearances of our other enlisted state alchemists in that area. Is that understood element alchemist?” “Understood sir!” She saluted her uncle and walked out of the office. She stood outside the door for a moment, then began to walk to her military issued dorm room. “Wow…I guess Ed and Al are probably doing military work t--.” A thought suddenly came to her. What if Ed and Al went to Hasenko too….and maybe they disappeared. The thought that crossed her mind sent chills up her spine. “Maybe I shouldn't think about it…it will only make me worry.”
The next morning came and the Furher made sure she had the best accommodations on the train. Her uncle was there to see her off. “Well…I guess this is good bye uncle.” She said sadly. He looked at his niece, eyes glistening with love and sadness. He gave her a hug and said “Please be careful ok…don't take after Fullmetal alright?” she looked at him and nodded. She pulled away and got on the train, turning around one last time to see him waving goodbye. As she took her place in the little room they had provided for her, she took out her new silver pocket watch. She had remembered what Roy had told her when he gave it to her the night before. [flashback] “Now Eli…don't loose that watch…it is your ID for being a state alchemist and it amplifies alchemic reactions. Now I mean it, don't loose it!” [flashback end] “Yeah Yeah Yeah I'm not gonna loose it.” She said to herself as the train began leaving the station. The train left central quickly. Elina watched as it disappeared into the distance. She became bored and fell asleep.
She arrived in Hasenko early the next morning. She woke up yawning, and slowly carried herself off the train. “The Colonel told me to stay here…that I am not supposed to leave until I receive orders to.” She looked at the people, the buildings, the shops, and thought Wow these people have seen a lot of oppression. The people looked fatigued, run down, and the buildings looked old and caved in. she walked around town, noticing that the buildings that looked caved in and unsafe, people still lived in. she couldn't believe what she saw. The entire town looked poor. She walked up to an old woman, and asked her why the town was in the shape that it was. The woman said that it was the military's fault. They had caused a war. The war destroyed the economy of the city and the lives of those who lived there. She walked away, and began to think. The military caused all of this?...did I do the right thing?... joining the military….I think until I learn more about this town I shouldn't let them know that I am apart of the military.

“Al…I'm hungry!” Ed said whining to his 6 foot tall suit of armor for a brother. “Brother there is a town up ahead. Maybe they have an inn we can stay at.” As they got closer to the town, a sign cam into view. “Hasenko….hmm….I have never heard of this town brother.” Al said. “Yeah me neither….well…let's take a look around.” They walked towards the town. Once they entered the town, they saw cake vendor. “CAKE!!!!!” said Ed with a smile. He ran over and began to admire the delicious delicacies. Al heard a commotion. He looked towards the end of one of the streets and saw a girl covered in a brown cloak with a hood over her head. She was running from Hasenko policemen. “Hey Stop!!!...Someone Stop that girl!!!.” Yelled one of the policemen. She ran right passed Al and bumped right into Ed causing him to drop his cake. “Sorry shorty didn't see ya there!” she yelled. Al realized what the girl had said and tried to grab his brother, but it was too late. He was so mad that she made him loose his snack but called him short too. He had taken off after her. He ran as fast as he could to catch up, but he decided to take a short cut. Somehow, he got in front of her. He clapped his hands together and placed them on the ground. The girl came into his trap just as he had planned. A cage came up from the ground and formed around her. “Ha…Gotcha….” Ed said smirking. “That's what you get for making me loose my snack and calling me short.” The girl smirked not really looking up at Ed, all she could see was his feet because the hood covered her face. “You underestimate me.” She clapped her hands together and placed them on the bars of the cage. They morphed into spikes that stuck out all around her on all sides. The police arrived and pulled out there weapons. Before they could fire, the girl had clapped her hands once more and a column of earth came from between the spikes. She arose to the top of a building, and jumped off and ran on one of the roofs. “She doesn't know who she is dealing with.” Said Ed as he clapped his hands and followed her giving instructions to his brother to corner her. He ran after her on the roof. He called to her, “Hey!....[she stopped running]…how did you do a transmutation without a circle?” the girl turned around. When she did her arms became restrained, and her feet dangled above the roof. “Let me go!!...Let me go I said!!!” she said skwerming around in Al's hold. “Now let's see who you really are.” Said Ed. He pulled off the girls hood, while she kept trying to break free. She stopped for a moment and looked at the boy standing in front of her. “Edward?...Is it really you?” she stared at Ed. She noticed that his hair was much longer now. He was wearing it in a pony tail. His bangs still hanging in his face. He wore black pants, boots and shirt. He was also wearing a red jacket. He stared at the girl for a moment, not knowing how she knows him. He thought for a moment, until he heard Al say, “Elina?” Al lowered Elina onto the floor of the roof. “Eli?...You haven't changed a bit.” Said Ed. The policemen were coming up onto the roof, they began shooting. Al tried to protect his brother an Elina. “Brother you and Eli need to get away from here.” Ed took Eli's hand, which caused her to blush a little, and ran with her down a fire escape. Al followed once they were off the roof. They ran through the back allies of the town. “Ed, Al….i have a hide out come this way!” she said. She took them to where her hide out was but, “Oh no…they've found it…now where are we supposed to go.” “maybe…we can leave the town.” Said Al. “No!!!” Elina shouted, almost causing the policemen to hear her. “But why not?” asked Ed. “because….Dogs must obey their masters.”
