4- Who I became.

A/N hi everyone, so sorry about no updates, I had exams and studying, and I still have a few more exams but once they are done I will update more. promise :)

Throughout the next few weeks, Edward and Alphonse were sent on numerous missions to different towns and villages. Aria and (y/n) stayed behind and took the home guard.
One day, whilst Edward was on his way back from a solo mission, Alphonse approached (y/n) during her blade training. He watched as she threw her dagger at each target perfectly. Her sword slicing through wood as if it were paper.
Al waited until she had finished destroying her target, before he approached her.
"(y/n)?"
"Oh, hey Alphonse."
"I never knew you could fight like that. "
"I trained and got stronger I guess..."
Al nodded.
(y/n) heard footsteps behind her and turned around quickly, her blade pointed. Her eyes widened as she realised it was Edward, his golden eyes wide as her blade was millimetres from his neck.
"Edward!" she dropped the blade and hugged him. "I am so sorry, I didn't know it was you. "
Ed hugged her back, his heart rate slowing after a while.

Two months later.

Aria poked her head out of the door. She stepped down the corridor and checked every door.
"Coast is clear." she whispered to (y/n), who creeped down the corridor after her sister. She silently tiptoed past Riza's room. Trying not to make any noise. She slipped out through a side door and ran out into the night.

A figure had been watching her the entire time.

She arrived a few minutes later at a large hole in the ground covered by leaves and stones, she lifted up the cover and slipped inside.  Dropping onto the wet floor with a thump, (y/n) approached a stone plinth with four carvings on it. She placed her hands on the plinth, and let out a loud sigh.

"Is this what you've been doing every night then?" A voice spoke up behind her. She turned to see Edward walking towards her with his hair loose.
"Edward..." she whispered and smiled softly.
He stood beside her and looked at the plinth.
"What do these symbols mean?" he pointed to the four engraved symbols.
(y/n) pointed to each one.
"This one represents fire, this one is the symbol of air. This one is water, and that one is earth."
"What do they do?"
"They symbols don't do anything. It's just a memorial I made for my father."
"Your father?"
(y/n) closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

"My father was Levi Kaizenko"

Edward's eyes widened and his jaw dropped.
"Oh my god... You mean the Elemental King that was assassinated right?"
"The very same. I never got to meet him. Aria is my half sister. "
(y/n)'s voice cracked a little bit. Tears sprang to her eyes and embarrassed, she turned away from Edward and covered her face. He grabbed her wrists.

"(y/n)..."

He gently pulled her hands away from her face.

"Listen to me.." he said in a soft tone. He saw tears slipping down her cheeks. "...Levi was a great man, but you, you are not alone. Aria, Riza, Winry, Alphonse, Roy, you have so many people right by your side. But none more than me. I will always be here for you, no matter what."

(y/n)'s heart began to beat faster. She shivered in the cold cave, and Ed took off his red coat and draped it over her shoulders. He hugged her close and tight. She leaned into his hold and closed her eyes.

After a few minutes, Edward pulled away and his golden eyes met hers. Their faces were millimetres apart. A faint blush appearing on her cheeks as violet sparks surrounded them.
"What's happening?" Edward looked around.
"Wh-when an Elemental has very strong emotions, they can emit an aura. Different colours mean different emotions."
"Ah! So what's purple then?"

(y/n) looked down blushing. His eyes widened just a little, but he touched her cheek with his flesh hand and wrapped his metal arm around her waist. Her eyes widened and before she knew it, Edward's lips pressed to hers. She closed her eyes and cast her hand out towards the centre of the cave, creating a pulse of Elemental energy before leaning into the kiss and running her hands through Edwards blonde hair. The sparks took on the blue, red, green and white colours and danced around the pair of teens as their hearts started beating in unison.
