Aisling meets the Elric Brothers! How will this go? Will they be able yo give the info he needs? Or will he be put back on square one?

I was laughing, my little brother grinning.

"So, your telling me he chased you halfway, and stopped. And while he was catching his breath, you took more from his cart?!" I asked before he laughed again.

"He was out of shape. And his cart was standing right there!"

"Malichi, I told you not to steal again...father has enough money."

"Says the one eating the bread."

"He makes good bread." I pouted.

We both lay on the bed, looking up at the ceiling. My younger sister slept beside me, curling up into my side.

"Aisling."

"Hm?"

"...are we ever going to get out of this place?"

I turned over to him, looking into his grey eyes. I smiled, ruffling his hair.

"Of course. We can't live like this forever. We'll run away, and never return." He smiled at me, nodding.

"Yeah...and then, we can have all the bread and food we wan to share.." He said, closing his eyes. "And we can make sure Ada gets a good docter..." He said before dozing off.

I smiled, chuckling.

"Of course... And then...then we can leave Xerxes and thus damn palace."

Eyes opened, outside pouring rain through the window. I got up, rubbing my eyes and stumbling to the window, closing it...only to remember the window was broken.

Perks of being in an abandoned, run down building.

I walked over to the mattress, a small black bag on the side of it. I looked through it, opening a can of beer.

What?

Not like I can really get drunk.

Plus...all you gotta do is pay extra, or have someone buy it for you.

I chugged it down, wiping my mouth as I changed my clothes and walked to the window. I jumped down, walking into town.

Now...there are rumors about some kid alchemist... Wonder who it is..

It was rainy, and I was planning on getting some leads today.

I was then bumped down by something large.

I looked up, a suit of armor speaking.

"I'm sorry! Are you alright?!" he asked before something behind it exploded, and he ended up picking me up.

"Al, c'mon!"

I looked at the blonde boy, then behind the armor.

I saw the guy, the ones in the yellow jacket, sunglasses on.

...sunglasses in the rain?

...I should try that.

"Al, drop the guy somewhere!"

I sighed before jumping out of the armor's hand, my hand glowing. They both looked before I gasped.

Golden eyes and hair...

Almost like...

The armor was hollow, too. But I could see it's soul...

The man behind us grew closer.
