"all set granma" winry sighed as she threw hunk of metal to the short old woman named pinako, surprising every one that she actually caught it.

"Thank you winry, did u tighten-"

"Yup I tighten the seven large 8.5 bits." she said popping the 'P'.

"How about the joints did you-"

"I oiled all the joints" winry interrupted again

"Did you take the extra shavings to the trash?"

"Um."

"That's a no" pinako chuckles

"How ya holding up?" Edward asks blankly.

"Good" I answer. He then disappears as if he were forced to say those words.

Pinako enters the room and steps near the edge of my surgery bed.

She reaches under the bed and grabbed something causing the bed to lower down to her height.

"Now.. let me take a look"

She look a look at my leg and started to make lines on it with a pen.

"What are you doing?" I ask

"I'm out lining your leg and making provisions to figure out where to make the incisions to install your port."

"Is...is this going to be worse than the surgery on my arm?"

"Rory, I assure you it will be just fine" she didn't answer my question.

I sighed and started to fiddle with my surgery gown.

"Mom?"

"Yes sweat heart?" My mother answered eagerly.

"What will we do after this?"

"After what darling?" she asked again.

"Like... like all of this. my arm. my leg. and.... what about el?"

"You did that with alchemy? right?" she whispered as she got up to sit on my bed.

"Yes?" I awaited

"Well there has to be a way to fix it with alchemy" she cooed.

"Not everything can be fixed"

"Don't be so negative"

"I'm not being negative mother. My arm is proof that everything can't be fixed."

My mother let out a almost forced sounding huff of a laugh.

"What?" was she laughing at me.

"You don't notice the good things in life. where ever is my dear daughter, the one that thinks positively? you got a replacement arm haven't you? and your going to get another. one that will allow you to walk forward, Forward in life "

"I guess." I said quietly
