Metal Vs Storm

Sloth and Lust

Edward looked on in slight awe as his former teacher silently opened a hole straight into head-quarters, her husband, Sid, stood guard. “Is this really legal?” he whispered.

“HA! Who cares about legal or illegal at this point, this joint is going to be under fire in mere minutes.” Izumi laughed evilly, a dark aura surrounding her person.

They entered the building, walking a distance. Truthfully the building was under lock down, no one was to get in or out and every exit was patrolled by the loyal Furhur’s men.

They walked straight into the chaos. “Men, there has been an attack, I repeat there has been an attack!” Soldiers ran back and forth, from telephone reporting attack around the city. Even Edward didn’t know where all the attacks were coming from but by the sounds of it, the fighters were on their side.

“Another, on fifth street, a seventh on Burnams Ally, team B deploy immediately!” a soldier cried out.

“Where are all these attacks coming from?” Izumi looked on from the background, the four totally unnoticed by the scrambling men.

“That will be Blackstone’s and my men.” A cold voice softly whispered from behind Edward. Said alchemist jumped in surprise. They turned to see the Commander of the North and Major Armstrong.

“And a fine job they are doing.”

“Indeed brother.” Edward’s jaws hit the floor, ‘brother!? Commander and Major were siblings!?

“Well since they are doing their job, how about we have some fun?” Izumi cracked her knuckles as she looked at the men.

“That would be quite enjoyable.” The Commander pulled her rapier and walked forward, the others watched her in curiosity. Without another warning, she pulled one of the closest soldiers and placed the knife at his neck, “All of you, I advise that if you wish for your soldier to live stop all that you’re doing!” her voice rang loudly and all stopped their babbling and turned to the demanding voice.

One soldier with a shotgun stood up and aimed at her. “And why should we bother?”

“Oh, don’t worry darning, this was just a distraction.” The Commander stepped aside to show Edward kneeling on the ground, hands hitting the floor as blue sparks filled the area, suddenly all metal object wrapped around the soldiers like rope. Many exclamations were heard as movements were restricted. “Izumi, if you may.”

“Gladly.” The person in question took off her sandal and walked out to the nearest officer with a deadly look on her face, “I’m only going to ask you this once, I better have a proper answer. Where the heck is your Furhur?”

The officer, who couldn’t be more than twenty-five, looked ready to cry from the look in Izumi’s eyes.  “I d-don’t k-know, I’m s-serious!”

“That is unfortunate.” The Commander said. The building rumbled nosily, at the moment it didn’t matter what was more unfortunate of not because it was about to get a whole lot worst.

Greed grinned at the sight before him, soldiers aimed shaking guns in his direction. This was bound to be fun, before Izumi, Sid and Edward infiltrated, he was given orders to wait outside for thirty minutes, after that he was allowed to take down the Furhur’s followers, his special service of sorts that did not change sides not matter what, that’s what made this so fun.

“Come one boys, the fight hasn’t even started yet and you’re already shaking.” The former prince laughed, around him he could hear multiple fights going on, the Furhur’s men against their own.

Greed backed up slowly, hands up in the air… suddenly he rushed forward, hands covered in his ultimate shield. The open ground of Central Military station becoming his playground. In movements of graceful fighting, solidified by the countless years of training, he knocked down guns, deflected bullets and sent the soldiers into a state of unconsciousness that would keep them out of the fight for a few hours tops. Just because the soldiers were of no use to did not mean that he was about to go mercilessly killing despite how fun it may be.

To the normal eye, Greed’s movements to be some sort of dance weaving in and out of people, leaving a wave of destruction in his wake. He laughed in utter glee, this was the most fun he has had in for ever!
The soldier’s numbers slowly decrease, then… the world slowed down. A flash of silver caught his eyes, he turned to catch a better glimpse and his eyes widened, five claw-like fingers were coming straight at him, towards his unprotected chest, he tried to cover himself with is shield but it was as if he was frozen. Suddenly a large shadow covered him, a hand made of metal deflecting the claws, the world returned to normal speed as Greed’s shield finally covered his entire body but his head. “Alphonse, you’re here!”

The metal armour turned to look at him, “Can’t believe I would skip the final fight, now would I?” Greed grinned like a madman. “Father and the chimeras are here to.” he pointed to the trio that held guns in their hands and were firing at the remaining soldiers.

“Oh, all his pathetic scrambling, it will all be for nothing.” A voice cut through the air like a knife, Greed and Alphonse turned to the woman standing on the top of the building.

“Lust.”
