Natsuki's part 1: A new beginning.

An empty field lies between Winry's house a a distant figure. As the figure approaches... Natsuki becomes visible.
-----
*walks up to Winry's house and pauses outside, unsure of what to do* ....

-Ed was sitting on the porch, against the wall and directly underneath the window. His eyes were closed but he opened them as he hears Natsuki approach.- "Hey your back.."

*sighs and walks up to Ed slowly* Yeah....I am. And I'm staying this time.

-Ed stands up and gives her a hug. His arms squeeze her tight.- "Im glad....we've missed you.."

*hugs Ed back tightly* I missed you all too.

-Ed grabs her hand and takes her inside.- "Hey Al, Natsuki is back!"

-Al yells from the other room.- "Really!?" -He shakes the house's foundation as he runs to her, turning the corner and seeeing her.- "Natsuki!"

*smiles brightly at Al* Hey Alphonse...

Al: "What brings you home?? Does this mean your going to rejoin the military?"

Ed: "Yeah, Mustang kind of makes life hell for us. Maybe with you back he will lay off a bit.."

I.... *looks at the ground* ....Haji was killed. *my eyes tear up* I couldn't stay anymore.....I didn't know where else to go.

-Ed and Al both sigh.- "Wow, we are sorry.." -They both say at the same time.-

*sighs and wipes my eyes, looking back up at them* ...yeah. So I'm back now.

Ed: "Well we could escort you to Central..."

Al: "Yeah the sooner you get back there, the sooner you can join us on assignments!"

*nods and smiles slightly, although the smiles does not reach my eyes* Alright! Let's go then.

-Ed and Al scurry to pack their things and jolt to their rooms. The house feels like an earthquake as they attempt to pack.-

*sighs and sits on the couch, waiting for them* ..Haji....Dom....I miss both of you. *stares at the floor*

-Ed and Al skate into the living room. They are both carrying suitcases (even though Al doesn't need one lol) and Ed slides to a stop. Al skates in after him but can't and collided with Ed, sending both crashing out the front door loudly. The crash snaps Natsuki out of her tranced daze.

*looks up at both of them* ........ *begins laughing*

-Ed yells from outside.- "Natty! A little help!"

*walks outside and begins helping them up, still laughing* Ahaha... I've missed both of you.

-Ed, being his rash self, dust off from the tackle made by Al. They both rise up as Natsuki helps them up. Ed, always being the one wanting to know things first before acting, speaks out.- "So when you get back into the military side of things, what will be your main objective? I mean, things are chaotic rout now."

Well.... *shrugs* I'm not sure. I think... I want to find out more about my past. Where I came from....

-Ed yawns and sighs.- "Weeeeell, its best we get moving. Central isnt going to come to us.." -Al nods inagreement, holding his hand out to Natsuki.- "Natty, you ready?" -Ed had already started walking towards their destination, the train station.-

*nods and takes Al's hand* Alright. Let's go. *walks after Ed with Al*

-When they arrive at the train station, it is unusually over crowded, the lines to board are 25 people deep everywhere you look. Ed, who has no patience, curses at the matter.- "Aw dammit, why do we always have to get screwed over everywhere we go??" -Al, being cooler headed tries to calm Ed.- "Brother....its just a busy day. Central isnt going anywhere you know.." -Ed pouts at Al's cool nature, kicking a can in frustration.-

*sighs and pulls both of them into a line* Well boys, looks like we have to wait.
