   Roy, finding Edward and Alphonse chatting with Breda, enlisted in their help on his search for Allen. Breda offered to help but was swiftly denied because - like Mustang - he had work to do. Unlike Mustang would however, he returned to his work albeit begrudgingly.

   Ed and Al went one way while Roy went another.

   Roy asked anyone who might've seen Allen. Honestly, you'd think it wouldn't be so hard to find a short teen with white hair! Finally, he ran into Fuery who told him Allen should be at his office. Roy walked briskly through the halls until and loud boom shook the floor under him. He ran up the stairs. Just in time to-

   "HEY!"
   CRASH!

Moments after he made off the last  step, he saw - more heard - Allen jumped out of a window. Roy's frustration drained as he started sprinting at the broken window. Roy, already too much aware of how he would be too late, reached out to try and grab the suicidal exorcist.

   While halfway out of a window unable to catch Allen, Roy was able to get a front row seat to something destroying the city. A huge, black and gray mass of cannons floated upwards. It turned toward Roy and its distorted face was reminiscent of some terrible nightmare. The cannons bent themselves to face the window. Roy, taken aback and stunned, didn't move immediately. He would have been dead in the next second.

"Cross Grave!"

   The ball shaped evil screamed and dispersed into ash. Roy who was no longer dazed, covered his face with his jacket as the thick putrid gas was blown away by the wind. He looked down toward the street where the shout had come from.

   Allen was locked in battle with the horde of monsters. He was obliterating them. 'There's something in his hand... Wait that is his hand!' Roy realised. He then decided now was a great time to go help out. He sprinted down the hall and all but jumped down the flight of stairs.

   "Maybe we should just not look for what's his name. Maybe we should get food." Ed said, trying to convince Al to let Colonel Bastard do the searching.
   "That wouldn't be very kind, and you know Mustang would make you pay for it."
   "Aw, dammit Al, why do always have to have good points all the time."
 
   Ed and Al had just checked with Scheska about Allen's whereabouts - she didn't know either, big surprise - when a massive shaking made a ceiling tile fall and break on Al's head. Seemingly unaware of this, they looked around trying to figure out what's going on. Not waiting for it to surprise him, Ed went towards the two large doors leading outside, Alphonse close behind him.

   Almost getting trampled doing so, the brothers made it outside, and were promptly baffled. Monsters unlike anything they'd seen where attacking the city. Great! Suddenly, a loud shatter brought they're attention up.

"HE JUMPED OUT THE WINDOW!?"

   Sure enough, the very person they were looking for moments ago came flying out a window several stories high. While Ed and Al contemplated the sanity of the young man for a brief moment, Allen destroyed multiple of the metallic floating masses of cannons, being careful to dodge their projectiles.

   Knocked out of their stupor, the Elric brothers started aiding soldiers and evacuating citizens out of the area.

   Allen took the first move.

   Running and jumping up to the three using Crown Clown as a boost, he made for a slash. With a twist, the Akuma dodged the attack, replying with one of its own. Allen and the level three continued to fight as such. Allen wielding his Sword of Exorcism while the level three hacked away with an arm blade of its own. It's arm had morphed into a blade of ice. As they danced around, Allen had to be cautious. He could could feel the temperature drop when the Level Three came close.
