Chapter 3

Mustang slid down the cliff side, face first, until he reached a stop. He immediately got up, and took to looking for the short thug once more.

Fullmetal could hear the leaves rustling around him, and a neigh in the distance. He eventually came to a stop, blood rushing to his head, heart pounding, and leant against the stone next to him, hoping to catch his breath. However, that was not the case, as he fell painfully onto his side, the vines that he once thought were covering a rock wall, falling back into place.

He could see the shadow of his chaser outside the green screen that was shielding him from view. When the horse left, he let out a sigh of relief, and took a look around to gather his surroundings.

He was in a small cave, cove if you will, and there was a lot of light coming from the side. He headed toward the light.

He turned his head after checking that he wasn't followed, to see a beautiful view. A huge, gushing waterfall was at the end of the valley, and a small river. There was green grass everywhere and flowers of all kinds as far as the eye could see. There were hundreds of trees, all different shapes and sizes as well. It truly was a beautiful view.

Height in front of him stood a tower. Old, sturdy, and covered in moss and other plants. Though, there didn't seem to be an entrance. Oh well.

There was a neigh in the distance, and Fullmetal ran towards the tower. He clapped his hands together, and using alchemy, he created two arrows. He dug them between the stones of the tower, and pulled himself up to the top.

His breath was laboured once he reached the top, it wasn't everyday that he had to pull himself up a gigantic structure such as this.

The blonde checked his satchel, to make sure the crown was still in his possession and hadn't fallen out on his journey down the cliff side, or up the tower. He smirked proudly when he saw he still had it, and it was unbroken.

"Alone at last." He stated smugly.

However, everything went black a few moments later when he was hit over the head by something. The young man keels over face-first, hitting the ground hard.

Winry stood behind him, wide eyed and panting, a silver wrench in her tight grasp. She looks down at him, and then at Al, who looked at her as if she was saying:

'See if he has fangs!'

She pushes the wrench against his upper lip, pushing it back, revealing, fortunately, no fangs.

Suddenly, his eyes shot open.

"Huh?" He mumbled. Winry swung at him, knocking him out once more. Struggling, she manages to drag him across the floor, over to her wardrobe. After many attempts of trying g to get him in her closet, swinging him in using her hair, shoving him in a few times, she manages to get him in.

She backs away from the wardrobe, wrench grasped tightly in her hands, pointed at the wardrobe.

"Okay, okay, I got a person in the closet. I got a person in the closet. I got a person in my closet!" She swings her wrench around in her finger

"Too weak to handle myself out there, huh Mother? Well, Tell that to my frying pan!" The wrench hit her in the face.

"Ow!"

"Winry! Let down your hair!" She heard Lust yell.

"One moment, Mother!" She yelled back. Winry glanced at the wardrobe, and then went to help her mother up.

"I have a big surprise." Lust announced when she entered the tower.

"Uh, I do too." she replied.

"Oh, I bet my surprise is bigger."

"I seriously doubt it!"

Lust pulled out a vegetable from her basket.

"I brought back parsnips. I'm going to make hazelnut soup for dinner, your favorite. Surprise!"

"Well mother, there's something I want to tell you." Winry grinned.

"Oh Rapunzel, you know I hate leaving you after a fight." She tapped her daughters cheek.

"Especially when I've done absolutely nothing wrong."

"Okay, I've been thinking a lot about what you said, earlier." Winry changed the subject.

"I hope you're not still talking about the stars." Lust warned her.

"Floating lights, and, yes I'm leading up to that."

"Because I really thought we dropped the issue, sweetheart." She continued, giving her the 'don't push it' look.

"No Mother, I'm just saying, you think I'm not strong enough to handle myself out there." Winry ignored her mother.

"Oh darling, I know you're not strong enough to handle yourself out there." She stated.

"But if you just..." Winry tried to reason.

"Winry, we're done talking about this." She demanded.

"But trust me, I..." she tried again.

"Winry." Lust warned.

"...know what I'm" Winry continued.

"Winry---."

"Oh, come on." Winry begged.

"ENOUGH WITH THE LIGHTS, WINRY! YOU ARE NOT LEAVING THIS TOWER, EVER!" Lust screamed.

"Oh, great. Now I'm the bad guy." She shrugged.

"All I was gonna say, mother, is that... I know what I want for my birthday, now." Winry said looking down, ashamed.

"And what is that?" The black haired woman glared at her.

"New paint. That paint made from the white shells you once brought me." She requested.

"Well that is a very long trip, Rapunzel. Almost three day's time." Lust gave her a worried look.

"I just thought it was a better idea than, stars." Winry looked up at her mother.

"You sure you'll be all right, on your own?" She asked, concerned.

"I know I'm safe, as long as I'm here." Winry hugged Lust.

"I'll be back in three days time. I love you very much, dear." She said as she pet her hair.

"I love you more." Winry rested he head on her chest.

"I love you most." She rested her head on her daughters.

Chapter 1 Chapter 9 Masterlist

Chapter 8

It was dusk when Fullmetal woke up to a wet liquid on his face. He opened his eyes to see Mustang standing over him, panting.

"Hmm, what? Well I hope you're here to apologize." Mustang attacked him. Winry woke up to Fullmetal's screams. "AHHHH! No, no put me down. NO, NO!"

"Release him." She now stood in front of Mustang, pointing downwards. He dropped Fullmetal but still held his boot in his mouth.

"OW!" Fullmetal yelled as he hit the ground. Winry saw that his foot was shiny and gasped. Now she understood what he meant back in the pub about getting his limbs back. He was missing a leg. That also explains why he was always covering up everything. Mustang tried to attack Fullmetal again when he blew a raspberry at him.

"Whoa! Whoa, whoa-whoa-whoa. Easy boy, easy, calm down. Easy boy. Easy. That's it. Now sit. Sit. Good, now drop the boot. Drop it." She demanded. He obeyed and dropped the leather boot in the floor and Fullmetal scrambled to grab it.

"Oh, you are such a good boy. Yes you are. You all tired, chasing the bad man all over the place?"

"Excuse me?" Fullmetal asked, offended.

"Nobody appreciates you, do they? Do they?" She rubbed under his chin and he neighed happily in content.

"Come on, he's a bad horse." He complained.

"Aw, he's nothing but a big sweetheart. Isn't that right?" She looked at his collar. "Mustang."

"You've got to be kidding me." He rolled his eyes. She completely ignored him and started talking to the horse next to him.

"Look, today is kinda the biggest day of my life. And I need, I need you not to get him arrested. Just for twenty four hours and then, you can chase each other to your hearts content. Okay? And it's also my birthday. Just so you know." She told him. Mustang continued to glare but neighed to tell her that he wouldn't get him arrested.

"Thank you." She walked off and when he knew she wouldn't turn around, Mustang kicked Fullmetal in the stomach. Fullmetal fell to the floor and groaned in pain.

When they entered the kingdom people kept getting caught in Winry's hair. They had to pile it up and carry it and run. Fullmetal looked around as best as he could with the hair in his arms, covering his eyes. He looked to the side to see four little girls plaiting each other's hair. He dropped Winry's hair and whistles to them. Winry looked behind her because she felt a weight and looked to see the four girls running over to Fullmetal. He pointed to Winry's hair and their eyes lit up with excitement. What was he saying to them and why did he point to her hair?

Turns out they wanted to plait it. It would make it a lot easier to move around. So, she let them. They found an area with not many people and the started to plait her hair, putting all kinds of plants and flowers into her hair as well. After they were finished, she went to find Fullmetal. When she did, she did a little twirl to show all of the flowers. She looked absolutely gorgeous. Like a goddess. Scratch that. She was a goddess. Her beauty rivalled that of Aphrodite.

The two of them, with Mustang and Al, walked around the kingdom, going to all kinds of different stalls. Fullmetal ended up buying a hand-sewn handkerchief with the kingdoms symbol on it. He turned around to give it to Winry only to see her gone and a huge crowd forming. He pushed his way through the crowd to see her grinning from ear to ear while dancing with the other civilians. He smiled widely. He didn't know why, but he really liked to see her happy. She skipped over to him and pulled him to join her in the line of people dancing. He laughed and joined her.

When night fell, he took her to the edge of the kingdom, where there was a boat waiting. They both got in but Mustang had to wait where they were before.

"Hey Mustang." He looked up at Fullmetal and then down when a bag of red apples where thrown in front of him. He gave the blonde a look.

"What? I bought them." He narrowed his eyes at him suspiciously before leaning down to take a bite of one.

"Most of them." His head snapped up as fast as lightening. The man laughed. He yelled when he got hit in the head by one of the apples and Winry giggled. Fullmetal turned to glare at Mustang when Winry grabbed him by the shoulder.

"Where are we going?"

"Well, best day of your life. I figured you should have a decent seat.

You okay?" He noticed the nervous look on her face.

"I'm terrified."

He cocked his head to the side.

"Why?"

"I've been looking out the window for eighteen years. Dreaming about what it would feel like when those lights rise in the sky. What if it's not everything that I dreamed it would be?" She was rubbing her hands together while looking up at him with her big blue eyes. He grabbed her hands.

"It will be." He reassured her.

"And what if it is? What then?"

"Well that's the good part, I guess. You get to go find a new dream." He smiled at her lovingly.

She had given him the satchel. But he wasn't happy. He didn't want it. Because that would mean they would separate and he might never see her again.

The lights were beautiful. Absolutely gorgeous. But he couldn't really focus on them. He was too busy looking at the woman in front of him. She was in complete awe at the lights. He pulled the two lanterns he had hidden to surprise her with out. She gasped when the man tapped her on the shoulder and she saw the lanterns. They both lit them up and set them free to roam the sky, without a care in the world.

Fullmetal grabbed Winry by the chin and they both leant in, both wanting this, both wanting to be together. Just before he shut his eyes and their lips made contact, he caught a glimpse of two men. Kimblee and Tucker. He gasped and pulled back, disappointed and scared. Scared that Winry would get hurt. Because of him.
