The Lone Moon: First Quarter

Conflict "S"

Once Sarawano noticed Saluke's presence outside the tent, things were about to get pretty messy.

Sarawano: Why don't you want to come inside?

Saluke: You know perfectly well... I hate the stench of those two...

Sarawano: Don't you mean three?

Saluke: Dad, c'mon! I've known Alphonse since he was this small. He's my brother. I understand him way better than that...

Toby...

Sarawano: But do you notice anything about Amy?

Saluke: Who? The girl? No, nothing. Nothing at all. Why?

Sarawano: She looked almost like...

Delina...

As he said this, Saluke's eyes widened. His heart beat raced faster and faster and his blood pumped twice as more than it did before. He was angry.

Saluke: HOW DARE YOU TALK ABOUT DELINA RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY FACE!?! That GIRL BEARS NO RESEMBLANCE TO HER AT ALL!!!

"Sniff"

*Saluke started to cry...

Why don't you just... leave- me- alone....

Sarawano: Saluke... Please...

Saluke: JUST GO!

Sarawano leaves, defeated and dumb-founded. Nothing else was to be said. The ruckus outside the tent was loud enough to lure the weakest of minds. Alphonse heard everything, of course, and quickly grabbed hold of his brother's hand.

Alphonse: Don't worry Saluke. I miss her too. She''ll be watching over us, just like Amy's mom. At least we're not the only one's who have experienced a loss.

Saluke: Oh Al, what would I do without you?

They both manage a smile and with that Al asks;

"Soooooooo.... can I....."

Saluke: No.

Alphonse: Awwww... come on! You didn't even know what I was going to say?

Saluke: I know what it is and the answer is no.

* Al basically wanted his brother to go inside the tent with him.

Alphonse: Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please!

Saluke: Alright. Alright! ALRIGHT! OK! Fine! I'll do it. For your sake...

Alphonse: YES!!!

As both were about to enter, Adelpho quickly pushes them out of the way.

Adelpho: Where's your father?!?

Saluke: I think he's back in his study... Why?

Adelpho: I need to see him! It's URGENT! Both of you, follow me!

Alphonse: But how about-

Saluke: Hurry up AL!

Alphonse: Huh... "sigh"... I guess she'll have to wait...
