/~ Rage's POV~\
Where Am I…what's going on…?
Rage held her head in her hands, and a sharp light surprised her. Rage looked down in confusion at the stinging brilliancy…there was a tattoo on her hand. It was a dragon, biting it's own tail, with an odd star in her hand. She later realized that it was, in reality, two triangles, intertwined to resemble a star. For the time being, however, Rage contented herself with sitting up and looking around.
She trapped in a cave, only lit by a lantern. She was lying on a grass bed, and upon closer inspection, the floor was littered with dead rodents. They looked as if their necks had been snapped, and then they had not been touched there after.
How odd…
Rage thoughts, and made a move to rise from the bed. A sharp hiss to her left proved the effort to be in vain, as she just fell backwards in shock. There was someone in the cave with her…she wasn't alone… Rage tried to summon a threatening growl, maybe to scare who ever it was off, but it just sounded like a whimper. She was treated by a soft Chuckle, and a man stepped out the shadows.
He had light blonde hair, worn long and pulled back into a high ponytail. Wisps of hair framed his face, and rough stubble betrayed his age. Rage looked about her, and finding nothing to protect herself with, sighed and gave a sheepish grin.
“You look nice in your dress” The man offered kindly, and Rage looked down in confusion. Her dress was relatively long, though it only went to about past her knees, and there was a slit down the side. Her gloves were shorter than that of lusts, and she noticed that her hair was smooth and her lips full and red. (Go to my profile page for pic)
Rage glanced down at herself again, and promptly flushed a cherry red. She didn't remember being dressed like this before… The man chuckled, and held out his hand.
“Come, We Have to leave, soon. Envy will come back with the red stones any minute now.”
The man said quickly, and Rage once again tried to stand. This time, she wobbled, and took a few steps. Soon she had her footwork down, and walked toward the man less than confidently. The man smiled a toothy grin, and she noted how nice his teeth were. Soon they where outside, hurrying away from the cave. The man was ushering her, explaining that his name was Guilt, and that he was hear to help.
When he spoke his name, Rage looked at him for a second, and something clicked with in her.
“I…I remember you… At least, I think I do…” Rage fumbled with her words, much to her own embarrassment. Guilt smiled hopefully, and rage gave a halfhearted smile in return. There was a quite rustle in the bushes to their left. Guilt instinctively gathered Rage in his arms, shielding her from whatever was coming. Rage cringed against his chest, needing comfort- just as Guilt had thought she would. The rustle grew louder, and Guilt finally relaxed when he heard an agitated cry
“AL! THAT WAS MY FOOT!”
/~ Al's POV~\
Al flinched away from the loud sound of his brother's yelp. Another ound, a boisterous laugh from their right mage hum jump, and he heard his brother fall over.
“Well, so much for the plan” Guilt managed in between outbursts of laughter, and Al hid his head in his hands in an attempt to hide the not-so-quite chuckling from them. Edward looked over at Rage and Guilt, and immediately smirked at their position. Rage noticed, and backed away from Guilt (Much to his disappointment). Edward shook his head, and held out his hand.
“Hello, my name is Edward Elric” Edward said a little less than cheerfully. Rage jolted, her eyes widening. Edward backed up in panic when she started to shake. Guilt knelt beside her, asking her Quietly what was wrong. Al could barely hear the faint whispered that passed through her unmoving lips.
“So it's true…what happened… to Al and Taka?”
Guilt looked away, biting his lip. The age-old sorrowful look decorated his features in a grimace, and Guilt finally looked back at her. Al looked away, trying not to listen or look, incase that same sorrow come for him and mar him like it did the other. If he allowed sorrow to overtake him…he would not be able to draw back from it.
“Taka's leg was taken. Winry is staying with him…She's a good mechanic. Al was already fixed by Ed when we got back to the house.”
The soft words did nothing to disperse the panicked look that shot through Rage's eyes. The trembling worsened, and she squeezed her eyes shut. Even so, a lone tear slipped down her face, and Rage couldn't suppress a quite sob.
“…What am I?”
