________________________________

Your brother was a fine alchemist. A young, handsome, gifted man who pushed the wrong crowd a little too far. Sometimes, the truth is best unknown. But the apple didn't fall very far from the tree, and even if it kills you, you're determined to know what happened.

"You know after all these years I thought you were dead," you stared deeply into his eyes, reading his emotions as you began your interrogation. "Why are you targeting doctors?" You stood tall with your arms crossed over your chest, across the table from you was Lenny, handcuffed and bound tightly to the chair with officers on either side of him.

"They're fun to kill," he said with a shit-eating grin. You scoffed at his nonchalant reply. "What else do you wanna know, sweetheart?"

"Where's your leader?" Your question was combated with a chuckle.

"Now you know better than to ask me that," the deranged look on his face made a chill run up your spine.

"Fine, tell me everything you know about my brother," you eagerly said, eyes hopeful and focused.

"What I know hmmm... Liam was a good family man, I only wish I was there to watch him die," his words were met with your fist, your stomach twisting at the memory he forced you to relive.

"You have a bold mouth for the situation you're in," you leaned forward and grabbed him by his shirt. "I'll ask you one more time, what do you know about my brother and where is your leader?" He spit out blood from the impact of your fist, laughing maniacally. Like the sound of old, creaky automail it made you cringe.

"Pretty girls have no business being involved in something so vulgar," he avoided your question once again, and in an instant everything went numb as you went into a fit of rage.



"Come on Al, let's get out of here," Edward tilted his head to the side to pop his neck, rubbing out the tension with his hand.

"Wait, now?" Alphonse looked at his brother in shock. They had already waited so long, and he wanted to see how things played out.

"The stone was a fake, we have no reason to be here anymore. Let's go before we get ourselves too involved in other peoples business," he began to walk away.

"We can't leave now! She needs our help, besides she seems to have a pretty solid lead on the stone." Al's argument wasn't good enough for the older, more stubborn brother.

"I won't repeat myself Al, let's go-" he heard the commotion in the interrogation room grow increasingly louder, and just moments later the hefty man tied to a chair came flying through the doors, followed by a heavy metal table.

The brothers jumped back with a shout of surprise, slowly looking towards to door to see you standing in the doorway with a dark aura and eyes of fire. You placed a heavy foot on Lenny's cheek and pressed his head into the ground. "Sleep on it Lenny, tomorrow I'll have a lot more energy, but less tolerance for your jokes," you turned on your heal and stormed off, letting the officers that stood by take him back to his cell.
