Ankh-Morpork

Crystal's face lit up as Sama agreed with her. The town looked a little sketchy, but inviting enough for a little bit of fun. She instantly spotted the sign for a pub, half broken but still working. She pointed to it with a grin on her face.

"How about we get something to eat there?" She asked

It definitely wasn't the friendlies looking place. Not the usual girly tea house Crystal preferred.

Ansem's House

Melanie sighed. "Galv, she's my mom. I have to help her if I can. It's...Strange I know but I know it would make her happy, and we have a obligation to our families to help them whenever possible. This is what my mom wants and if I can give it to her I will!"

She thought for a moment, a realization coming upon her "Oh! Now I get it!...Look Galv, i'll be sure to find a way to reverse what i've done with you and me before I...Finish everything. I won't make you hurt too."

KxS had to think this through. She apparently lost to humans earlier, and now she's asking for a battle with one individual werewolf that says she's stronger than her. But what kind of a werewolf can be controlled, yet stronger than an uncontrolled werewolf?

The KxS werewolf laughed. "You think you're stronger than me? Well, lets see if that's true! FIGHT!" she yelled, lunging at Angua!

"Oh! Now I get it!...Look Galv, i'll be sure to find a way to reverse what i've done with you and me before I...Finish everything. I won't make you hurt too."

Galv frowned. That idea had crossed his mind...But honestly, it was one of his last concerns.

“That doesn't matter,” he said, “I still don't think you should give up your life for this...”

Galv sighed...Well, he had time until whenever she got back to her village...Maybe he could convince her before then not to do this.

Now he wished he hadn't kissed her earlier. Why couldn't he have waited, after doing something more heroic?

-Ankh-Morpork-

“Looks fine to me,” Garet shrugged, stepping into the tavern.

A sign over the door read 'The Mended Drum.'

Sora frowned, following after him, as did Kairi.

Inside, there were several...questionable men, dwarves, trolls, and various other species. Many had scars, some had angry expressions, but all had many weapons...

-Outside Ankh-Morpork-

Angua jumped to the side as Kxs leaped, growling, then jumped as well, attempting to tackle her!

KxS got tackled, but she quickly got up and jumped at Angua, attempting to bite her.

"Look, I know it may seem strange to you but it's what I have to do to make sure my family is happy. You don't have to help me, but if you want to i'm open to it....After all it's A LOT of reading."

Melanie really didn't seem to mind the idea of killing herself to bring back her father. There was something a bit creepy and horribly naive about it.

-Ankh-Morpork-

Crystal followed the others into the gundgy looking pub, past the tables and tables of questionable patrons and to an empty table where they all could sit down. It all looked a bit scary, but exciting to the pink clad waterbender.

But it was still dirty. The girl wiped her chair off with an old napkin.

“...I do want to help you...” Galv answered softly, taking a book and staring at it.

“But probably not the way you think...” he thought to himself, opening the book and looking through it for now.

“Maybe tomorrow we can look around Central as well...See if we can't find anything in the city as well...Sometimes talking to people can yield more information then reading. One reason I wanted to find Ansem,” Galv told her.

-Ankh-Morpork-

The Mended Drum

“I'll...ummm...get something to drink for us...” Sora said, walking over to the bar. Kairi took a seat by Crystal, while Garet was talking to a man taller then him about swords.

Oddly enough, the other man actually found himself swapping stories and techniques with the flame haired young man.

Sora stopped at the bar, then paused, as the bar tender stared at him.

“What?” the bar tender asked, spitting into a cup and then wiping it in a rag.

“Ummm...Milk?” Sora asked, holding out a couple gold coins.

The bar tender paused, then produced a jug, and handed it to him. Sora placed some gold down, then paused.

“...We need cups too...” Sora answered. The bar tender gave him the eye. “Clean cups.” A few more gold coins.

The bar tender paused, and gave him some glasses, Sora returning to the table.

“I don't think they have much in the way of food...” Sora told them, “I don't think I'd trust food here...”

-Outside Ankh-Morpork-

Angua rolled as Kxs attempted to bite her, fighting back, trying not to hurt this girl...At least not to badly.

Her nose sniffed...Someone very familiar to her was coming.

Captain Carrot was approaching...

"Oh! Great idea!" Melanie exclaimed happily, now looking at the book over his shoulder and reading a tiny bit. "You really think someone would know how to help me out there?"

-Ankh-Morpork-

The Mended Drum

Crystal took one of the glasses, with a smile. She choose to ignore the looks of some of the creepers sitting around, and took a sip of their drink.

"It's cozy in here!" She said happily "Well anything is better than running from the military anyways..."

“They might be. We'd have to be really careful though, so we don't gain suspicion from people,” Galv told the girl. “It'd be easier if either of us were an alchemist, considering this is Central, but I can't do alchemy...Well, maybe I can, but I've never practiced it, and I know it takes some knowledge...”

He sighed, and held up his hand. There was a brief spark...but then nothing. He frowned at the current loss of his powers.

Many Paladins needed to pray before activating many of their abilities. Galv hadn't needed to. He was able to create electricity from, to his mind, thought alone. He believed it was because of his faith. But now he was seriously questioning it, and this girl with the very blue eyes, the witch...made him question things further. He simply wasn't sure what to believe.

His true goal though, was to try and show Melanie that she shouldn't throw her life away.

-Ankh-Morpork-

The Mended Drum

“Hahaha, these people are awesome!” Garet said, taking a seat. He poured himself a glass of milk and chugged it down, “Hey, I should see if anyone has seen any of my friends...”

Garet got up and began to talk to people again.

The Patrician's Office

Veterni looked over several papers.

“Sir...”

“Amestries soldiers by the train, correct?” Veterni sighed.

“Yes sir. No one at the gates. But a group was seen entering. They came from the trains too.”

“Hmmm...Interesting...Make sure we keep an eye on them,” Veterni said.

Part of being a tyrant was making sure you knew what was happening in your ruling area.

KxS could also smell a human coming around. If he had common sense, he wouldn't interfere with fighting werewolves.

The KxS werewolf got behind Angua and bit her tail.

[Ankh-Morpork]

Old Man’s House Of Magic and Lemonade

Garnet for her part was more interested in the magical racket than in the conversation between her protectors and Old Man. She looked at the racket, admiring the craftsmanship and detail. Even just holding it in her gloved hands, Garnet could feel a power radiating from it.

“I say thirty dollars. I accept payments in any currency currently around, or in stamps. I like stamps. Easy to collect, and quite valuable around here. And as an added bonus, I'll throw in three lemonades, one for each of you.”

Garnet nodded, and reached into the small satchel she carried with her and dug a bit. She had not brought much when escaping the castle, but she did take her birthday money.

… Now actual Final Fantasy games always have you having to collect money from beating monsters, but come on people! Garnet is a Princess for crying out for loud, are you seriously telling me she has to get her money by slaying goblins and flans? And yes, flans are a real monster in Final Fantasy. Oops, I’m game-ranting in a RP, apologies.[/comedy]

Garnet produced a small pile of gil and handed it to Old Man.

She smiled to Old Man and accepted the lemonade – but also made a mental note to speak with Steiner when they were someplace less public.

The Mended Drum

Sama happily followed the group into the tavern… and his smile slightly faltered as he saw the dirtiness of the place, and the armament of the clientele. He gulped once, hoping that it was just the type of tavern that looked like a fight could start at any moment, and not the type where one actually might.

When Sora brought drinks, he nodded to him and said ‘thanks’, before looking down into the glass and seemingly staring through it. It had been a long, rough day… but he had made some new friends, and nobody was hurt… so the boy decided to embrace his roots as an eternal optimist. He downed a bit of his milk and then grinned to the others (ignoring the milk mustache now on his face).

“Alright! Things aren’t perfect, but let’s make the best of it!” He said aloud, far too cheerful for this type of bar.

[…]

“… We have to finish checking the library tomorrow. No matter how many books it is.” Felix insisted from a few tables over.

“Yeah, but that’s a lot of books. I don’t even think the Amestris Military library has as many as…” Ivan trailed off. He had just spotted a very tall man speaking to a redhead – and that redhead looks very familiar.

“Garet!?” Ivan yelled, jumping up. Felix nearly fell out of his chair, spinning his head around to look.

[Lab 5]

Edward’s golden eyes narrowed dangerously. He had intended to get out of here quickly, but this lady was – surprise of surprises – pissing him off. Edward had a very short temper (that he would lose if you phrased it as such).

“You think I give a damn about the war!?” Ed bellowed, clutching the spear tightly. “Listen lady, this is about restoring my brother… I don’t care who you are, if you stand in my way I’ll TAKE YOU DOWN!”

Ed hurled the spear with surprising speed for someone so small, and he was right behind it. Even as the spear went high, Ed went low, thrusting a sweeping kick with his metal leg – and clapping his hands in preparation.

[…]

Al winced at his brother’s actions, and then looked over to Winry and Eva. “We… we have to help brother!”

Al started to run off – but Winry put a hand in front of him, and then turned to Eva. “… We have to save my idiot friend, and we get another excuse to drive the tank.”

[Mustang’s Limo]

Mustang listened to his old friend and contemplated everything he said. It was a lot to take in, but as ever, Roy was undaunted by the task. (Or, if he was daunted, he just didn’t show it.)

“… Capture the Avatar? Hah… amazing, life’s little ironies. If I had captured him years ago, I’d have been a General by now… and wouldn’t have such an easy path to the Fuhrer’s office.”

Roy sat back with a grin. “… We’ll continue to track Scar, when we can, but for now our focus is the Avatar. Given the good Lieutenant’s record, there’s a good chance my unit can be given the case.”

He was referring to the Bending Valley incident, when Hawkeye’s bullet had taken down the Avatar.

The car slowly sped to a stop, just outside Hughes’ home.

“Goodnight, sir.” Riza called from the front.

“… Careful Hughes. As you said, we have a lot of enemies. I’ll need you with me if I’m to succeed.” Roy warned him friend.

[Treno]

Bahamut saw the miasma dragon coming at him; but stood unafraid. With a earth-shaking roar, Bahamut swiped his massive claws to try to knock the miasma dragon back. The flames burnt at Bahamut’s scales, but being one of the Upper Summons, the dragon was still raring to go.

Ankh-Morpork

Didymus slowly took the lemonade.

There was no magic on it (such would have to be the case for Old Man to have had a successful (law-abiding) operation in Galdwin), and Didymus was silent for a moment, clutching the glass/cup/what have you, before slowly taking a sip.

"Mmm." he let out.

"Thank you..." he said. "...it's been a long day...indeed, I think we all could use something like this..."

His stomach grumbled. It had been a while since he had had a real meal (at least a since the morning, if not longer).

At Old Man's question, Steiner hesitated, realizing his mistake.

"Um...yes, a term of endearment..." Steiner said.

Didymus paused, but looked to Dagger.

"Is that all, Dagger? I suppose we should go now...either get a ticket out, find an inn, a place to eat...or any combination of those things...it's been a long day, after all..." he said.

Lab 5

Beatrix was taken aback.

"You care NOTHING about this conflict which now rages? You care but for your own kin? You truly are a child..." she said.

As much as she admired devotion to kin (it was proper and honorable, after all, something a knight certainly could appreciate), she was appalled by a lack of concern (so it seemed to her) for the greater good. THAT was not honorable.

She would have spoken more, but Ed charged at her, and she narrowly sidestepped the spear being thrown at her!

Beatrix then had to try stepping over Ed's leg-hard to do right after a sidestep involving footwork-one leg cleared Ed's kick, but the other was hit! This would not have been as much of a problem for her normally as it was now, though-Ed's whole leg was metal, and connected harder than she anticpated!

In her haste to recapture her balance, she lost her grip on the stone, which went flying out of her hand-which she now used to catch herself, pivot around, and get back on her feet, swinging her infamous blade, that was actually NAMED "Save the Queen" right at him!

She was hesitant at first, but this child clearly meant a fight to the death.

"Care you NOTHING for the fate of this continent?! Are you truly so SHORT-SIGHTED?!"

Come on, you all knew something like that was coming.

She concentrated again-Ed was fast, she thought she had a spell for that...

"SLOW!" she cried, casting the spell at the older Elric brother!

Mustang's limo


“… Capture the Avatar? Hah… amazing, life’s little ironies. If I had captured him years ago, I’d have been a General by now… and wouldn’t have such an easy path to the Fuhrer’s office.”


Hughes chuckled.

"Another blessing in disguise, maybe." he said.

“… We’ll continue to track Scar, when we can, but for now our focus is the Avatar. Given the good Lieutenant’s record, there’s a good chance my unit can be given the case.”

Hughes nodded.

"So are we going to blame the Avatar, then? Alright. Yes, especially given Hawkeye's record...the one who stopped the Avatar and saved the attack force...the Hawk's Eye, indeed. Careful..." he said.

"...if she lives up to that name again, they'll probably pull her off to the front to go through day or days-long sniper duels with the Rangers...day in and day out. You better be careful how you DO get the Avatar, in fact...if Hawkeye does it instead of you, this country may get its first FEMALE Fuhrer..." he said, chuckling.

They arrived at his house.

"Thank you, lieutenant. Good night to you as well. There's a lot of political stuff that will be going on soon, especially when the generals arrive. We'll go over it some more in the morning. When will you announce the Fuhrer's death?"

Treno

The miasma dragon was hit hard by Bahamut, its head reeling on its long neck...it cried out, then tried to stab its wings forward! As more or less shown, its mutation was such that even the tips of its wings were hard and razor-sharp!
(Insert witty/moving/inspiring phrase here)

Crystal giggled at Sama's enthusiasm, taking a sip of her own drink. It was surprisingly good for the shady tavern they were in.

Of course if she woke up sick in the morning she would know why....


Ansem's House

Melanie watched with wide eyes as small sparks came from Galv's hand, but them died out.

"I still think it's really cool how you can do that...Well sorta...Why do you think your powers are all out of wack anyways? I mean, you did it before when you...Well saved me from that monster thing"

[Ankh-Morpork]

Old Man’s Shop of Magic and Lemonade

Dagger considered it for a moment. She did not want to leave Ankh-Morpork yet, for a variety of reasons. For one, it was a city of magic and mystery and she wanted to explore it. She had been enthralled by the Paladin Order, and Amestris – but now she was in a place where a variety of cultures from all over the continent – and even overseas – mingled together. For a sheltered princess, it was a dream come true.

On a more serious note, she still needed to find a way to control her summoning powers… and felt that surely someone in the vast city must have some clue! As much as she wanted to see Dr. Tot and get his help, surely there wasn’t even a chance that someone in Treno could teach her how to summon properly.

(… XD)

“… I think we should find an inn, and also a restaurant. We can reach Treno tomorrow by train.”

She turned to Old Man, and bowed. “Thank you, sir.”

Then she took each of her escorts by their arms and dragged them outside, and over into a dark alley.

“Steiner! You absolutely cannot call me ‘Princess’, nor can you even address me as ‘Garnet’! Until I have the power to save mother, I am Dagger, no matter what!”

Her face went from stern to soft. “Please, Steiner… this is important. Letting people know who I am puts us all in danger, and if I fail… our entire nation may fall.”

As the weight of her burden returned, Garent felt overwhelmed – and leaned against Steiner, letting her head rest on his armor.

“Steiner… our entire nation, our people, our culture, our history… everything Alexandria has contributed to the world, and the lives of every man, woman and child who dwells within our borders may be doomed to serve Amestris, or destroyed by Galdwin, or thrown into an eternal civil war…”

She has a lot of responsibilities.

The Mended Drum

Sama had finished about half of his milk, when he sat back in his chair and looked around the room. He glanced over to Crystal.

“Well… we’re in a seedy dive bar in Ankh-Morpork, probably being hunted by Amestris, and after keeping it secret for years, the world knows I’m still alive now… I’m pretty sure my decision making has sucked today, so what do you think we should do next?”

[Lab 5]

Ed was hit with “Save The Queen” in a vicious blow! The sword struck his arm, and easily would have severed it… but instead, it just ruined his coat. Ed would have torn his jacket, revealed his automail and made a dramatic statement – but he did not.

Beatrix had used the word ‘short’. She had not called Ed short, but using the word was qualification enough for as death sentence in the mind of Edward.

“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING A MICROSCOPIC AMOEBIA ON THE BUTT OF A FLEA!?” Ed roared, throwing his spear at her. Unfortunately, she cast a ‘Slow’ spell.

Ed threw his spear just in time, and the spell affected the spear rather than Edward – but a spear flying at the speed of molasses wasn’t a very effective weapon against a glass vase, much less an armored warrior.

Ed clapped his hands and pressed them to the ground; and formed a gigantic cannon (using some of the dropped guns from the dead soldiers as material for the cannon and gunpowder).

“I AM NOT SHORT!” Ed shouted, firing the cannon!

[Mustang’s Limo]

Mustang gave a small sigh… although he did not oppose the idea of Hawkeye ending up the next Fuhrer (a woman with power was sexy), when Hughes mentioned the prospect of a female Fuhrer, it reminded him of a DIFFERENT blond in the military who very well could end up the next Fuhrer.

“… Damn, as soon as news of Bradley’s death gets out, Olivier will be here in hours. If that lunatic ends up Fuhrer, I’ll be off to the front lines with Galdwin.”

Roy sighed. Armstrong’s sister and he did not get along.

“… I’ll go brief Gardner as soon as we leave, Hughes. I imagine he’ll be placed as provisional Fuhrer until the Generals can assemble.”

[Treno]

Bahamut was stabbed by the wings of the mutated dragon, and he roared out in intense pain. Even his massive scales were not invulnerable, and pain filled the dragon’s chest as he was impaled.

With a great roar, Bahamut kicked at the miasma dragon with its arms and legs, trying to separate them so he could unleash a Flare attack.

"I still think it's really cool how you can do that...Well sorta...Why do you think your powers are all out of wack anyways? I mean, you did it before when you...Well saved me from that monster thing"

Galv was not going to tell her that he was pretty sure because he was abandoning the Order, and because of the bond with this witch.

So he made something up.

“Umm...well...Not sure!” Galv said. So he made up something not very good, “It could be a number of things.”

He sighed. “I'm sure it'll come back...”

-Outside Ankh-Morpork-

As Kxs bit Angua, a very powerful pair of arms would grab Kxs from behind, pulling her back, and tossing her to the side.

Captain Carrot stood there, and pulled out his sword now. Everything else would seem to be background.

“I am Captain Carrot of the City Watch, and you are under arrest for attacking a Watch member,” Carrot said.

Ankh-Morpork

The Mended Drum

“Ivan! Felix!” Garet said, finding the other Adepts, “Where have you guys been? Man, I saw a lot!”

He quickly grabbed a seat and sat down by them, “What's up?”

Old Man's Shop

Old Man looked through the money, putting it up, but keeping one coin, staring at it.

“Hmmm...” he said, then walked out of the shop, and appeared in the alleyway where Garnet was arguing with Steiner and Didymus.

“Excuse me, miss!” Old Man cried out, walking forward, “Seems you gave me a coin to much.”

He presented her the coin, then turned around to leave, but stopped.

“Oh, incidentally, if you're interested in magic, you may want to visit Unseen University before you leave the city.”

Ivan looked thrilled to see his old friend – and Felix even more so.

“Garet, how did you get here?” Felix asked aloud, curious about everything Garet had been through.

Ivan was curious too… he paused, and looked to Garet. He closed his eyes and paused for a moment. “… Wow, interesting! You’ve seen a lot Garet. What an adventure!”

Ivan had read his mind.

Felix laughed and shook his head. “Geez Ivan… give the guy a chance to answer before you go reading him like a book! Anyway, Garet, we’ve been looking all over the place… any sign of Isaac, or Mia, or Sheba or…”

Felix hesitated. “… Jenna?”

Old Man’s Shop

When Old Man approved them again, Dagger thanked him… and when he mentioned Unseen University, she both suspected him of eavesdropping, and yet also lit up.

“T-Thank you! Could you point us in the right direction?”
