"What happened?" They asked.
I sat up and sucked in a deep breathe through gritted teeth. Then huffed out.
"Well?"
"I-I-I did it th-th-three times..." I explained. I looked over with tears threatening to spill. The face they had on had multiple expressions. Sadness, Confusion, shock and others. I could feel the tension in the room.
"But... Why?" I now just recognized the voice. It was Edward.
"Well it all started when my dad first showed me alchemy. He was the best thing that happened after my mom died. But I didn't know that he was sick. He had a disease called 'Vadarea' It was a whole body disease and he started getting weaker and soon his legs wouldn't work then his arms and then the organs. He couldn't breathe so we brought him to the hospital. We being me. The doctor said if he took some pills he would be able to breathe.
After a few weeks of taking the pills my dad grew ill with a different disease. Then he ended up dying in his sleep the next night." I now had 2 rivers flowing down my face. One from each eye. I heard Ed crying too.
"Then I couldn't get over him dying so I knew it was the taboo but I wanted him back. He would always treat me right. Not a motherless child. He treated me like I was Erica Rachel White. His daughter. So I was devistated when he died. I was 7 when this happened.
After a few months of weaping and sadness I decided to get my dad back. So I did the taboo and I ended up loosing my left arm and leg.
Then that brings me to the next one. After my dad died, and not exactly reborn, I was sent to a rugged old orphanage. I was there for only a month then I was adopted. Still don't forget I was 7 then.
The people who adopted me loved me with all their heart.
That was untill they knew I did alchemy. They actually killed themselves because of me. Me and my alchemy... So that's how it ended with me doing it 3 times. The second time I lost my right arm and leg and then 3rd was sight..." I continued crying. I did studder a little while speaking...
(YES I CHANGED THE STORY A LITTLE CAUSE IT JUST MADE IT BETTER!!!!!!)
"Wow" Was all Ed could muster up.
Then I heard another voice crying I the back of the room.
"Who's there?" I asked.
"Its just Al." Ed said.
"Oh okay..." I sighed.
"Are you okay with you know..." I think Ed asked.
"Yeah. But I was 7 at the time. Then 8 when adopted so I was 8 when I tried it. Then after the family tht adopted me died, I stayed at that house in Trucler. Then Mustang found me practically dying from doodad hunger in that house, and he was suprised at what happened to me. I had no arms or legs at the time. But now I have automail everything." I explained. I then rolled up my pants, And sleeves.
"Oh." Ed said. He then walked up to touch the automails.
"These are just like mine.." He says.
"Wait. You have auto mail?" I asked.
"Yeah." He sighed.
"I know this is a weird question, buuuuuuut could you show us your eyes?" Al asked.
"Sure. But wait why?" I asked.
"Cause you always keep them covered." He said.
I reach to the back of my head and slowly untie the black cloth that has always covered my eyes since mustang found me 6 years ago. I drag it off my head.
"Woah..." They stare at my eyes. Haha it sounds like they're in luv with me... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Yeah right.
"Why is one eye pink/green and the other just plain gold?" Ed asks.
"I don't know. The last time I saw my eyes, they were both gold." I explained.
"Ooohhhh..." Ed sighed.
"You should keep that off more often."
"But why? What's the point? I can't see now and I never will." I asked.
"Wait... I know this off topic but when and how did Mustang find you?"
"Well, When he found me, It was 5 days after the 3rd taboo. He was the person that cared for me and took care of me. So he's technically my step-step dad. He fed me and helped me get the auto-mail. He was really suprised that I was so young doing this. He was truly surprised that I lived. I had barely any blood left and I was dying of hunger and thirst. I had no arms or legs. So I lied on the floor slowly dying for 5 days. And yes I know I'm repeating things but... I have too." I just let it out. I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders.
"Wow. So Colonal B-turd does have a soft side..." Ed laughed.
