💕Edward and Winry💕

⭐Adventure Chapter 20⭐

He turned around and placed his arm over the seat of the chair. Edward and Clara both stared at him. "The king sent us here," Edward explained.

Clara replied, "Yeah, we are here to check on you." Edward shakes his head nervously as the man stares at them with suspicion.

"Is that right, then, what's your name?" The man replied while standing up tipping his feet, then looking at them with a glance while he places a hand on his hips. He lowered his head a bit to the left. "My name is-" Clara interrupted Edward,

"The king forbids us to share our names, but if you don't mind what is yours?" She said softly.

"I'm 23 and you guys look like you've lived here for years, but you sure don't dress like one." He said a raised eyebrow. In front of his deck, Edward glances at a pile of papers on the desk, "What are these?" Edward asks, flipping through the papers. 23 Ran to him and grabbed his arm, "It's rude looking at someone's stuff."

In response, Edward laughed and asked, "Is this your stuff?" 23 replied, "No, these are his stuff." Edward replied, "Funny that you took and looked at his stuff, how ironic." Edward read more information.

23 stared at him in anger and replied, "Of course, I do not know anything about alchemy. I'm a slave, after all."

When Clara placed her hand on 23's shoulders, she said, "I'm sorry, 23, he's into things like this, once he sees information that intrigues him, he's out of it." His face rested on Ed's shoulder in relief and he said, "A friend urged me to do this, so I could be useful, and I won't be a slave anymore. I want to live long and have a family, but they're not here."

Ed looked at him as he flipped through the papers, "You want freedom, I understand. Who is your friend?" Ed asked him.

"They call themselves homunculus." Clara held Edward's hand and whispered, "We still have time." Edward looked down at Clara, "I trust Winry."

"Are you certain I'll believe that? Clara sleeps with someone else, and not with her master? How pathetic, you must know something. Is this a trick?" said Lezabel.

"I wish it wasn't true, but it is," I said, tears rolling down my cheek. "If you want more power, tell me where Edward and Clara are, and I'll kill Edward myself," Lezabel said. When my body began to sweat, my brain couldn't stop pounding, as I forcefully took myself to say, "No, I want to kill him myself."

Lezabel shrugged, "Yeah, I guess you could, since you're after revenge." My heartbeat so fast and the nervousness was eating away at me, but I just kept telling myself, "They're both looking for a slave."

Lezabel smiled at me as she carried me up to the city, I looked at her as we disappeared into the streets of the city.
"Ouch!" I said as I rubbed my behind and looked at the view of the City.

The site is beautiful, Edward Heritage. "Show me where they are." She asked her, I nodded. We walked into the city, I glanced back, her arms crossed as she looked back at me, I quickly turned my head toward her.

Clara tugged Edward's shirt while he was talking to 23. She whispered to him, "They're here." 23 looks confused, "Okay, what's going on?"He's questioning Edward and Clara.

"We have no time for questions, please show us the master room," Edward said, quickly opening the door while Clara grabbed his hand and dragged him near the front door.  "No time for explanations, let's go," Clara said. They headed out of the room while 23 gave them directions.
