So, if you stuck around for the next day then good for you. This day will be sad so be prepared. There’s no turning back as soon as a story starts. It’s like starting a dish but never finishing cooking the recipe because you’re bored. So Shou Tucker was the man who adopted me and took me in after all of that stuff happened to me. At first I didn’t know how to go around all of this, and I was still trying to figure him out. But after the stuff I’ll tell you about soon you’ll see where my feelings for the ‘fatherly figure’ changed dramatically. Before we start I’ll give you a start for this day. Ahem, once upon a time there was a little girl, a dog, two brothers, and a bad father and sister. Day 1 out of 3 heaven and hell.

Human kind cannot gain without first giving something in return. To obtain something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's first law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we thought that was the world's one and only truth.

-Alphonse Elric-

I used to rule the world

Seas would rise when I gave the word

Now in the morning I sleep alone

Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice

Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

Listen as the crowd would sing

"Now the old king dead. Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key.

Next the walls were closed on me. 

And I discovered that my castles stand

 Upon Pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing

Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

Be my mirror, my sword and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain

Once you go there never

Never an honest word

And that was when I ruled the world

I recently returned to Central from a solo mission in the North. Unfortunately for me, I had to forfeit the pills that help me and my brain attacks. To top it all off I had to report to Roy as soon as I came back. He’s my friend’s father, I get that, but he was annoying as HELL. The only good thing about coming home was seeing Yuki, Nina, and Alexander again. I was sure they worried of me…

“Nice work on your solo mission Powered Alchemist. Very impressed.” Roy complimented with a wide smirk. My eyes narrowed at him with a shrug. His look became serious as he leaned forward. “Was there any issues while you were out?”

I sat tall and looked up to him. My head shook sternly not getting what he was implying. “No. Everything was calm, my mission went as smooth as a line and-“

Roy shook his head and gave me a firm stare. “You know that’s not what I meant.”

My mind wondered so I could think of what he meant. When figuring out what he was talking of I let out a long ‘O’ while nodding my head. “Well, they made me get rid of my pills, forever. So I had three attacks.”
