Sorceress-Sorry for the wait but I had to go to another funeral and a birthday party and I’m sorry I messed up the times for the Library I meant to put 10:00 when it closes and it was 10:05 it took her a while to find him and they talked for a few minutes as well.

Ed-You know I think you have bad luck running in the family

Sorceress-And a lot of other things, most likely

Ed-Which will probably going to take a lot more time

Sorceress-don’t even start

Ed-I didn’t say a word

Sorceress-Yeah right

Muse-Chocolate cake at the party party party

Sorceress-I think she’s gone even more insane

Riza-That’s what happens when you go to a birthday party

Al-Enjoy the chapter

--Last Chapter--

Riza smirks and yawns herself “Then lets get you to sleep.” He laughs again looking up at the clock.

“I think that will be hard to do.” Ed says laughing to himself.

Riza looks up at the clock to says 10:05 P.M. “Why?”

“The library closes completely at 10:00.” Ed says getting comfortable.

“We’re locked in?” Riza asks looking at the door in disbelief as Ed laughs going back to his books he left behind as she jiggles the handle “We can not be locked in, I have a dog to feed.” as she hears Ed laugh behind her.

Chapter 12: Late Night

“Come on open up.” Riza says pulling the handle of the door with all her might for the millionth time that night and it wasn’t budging she sighs in frustration thinking for a moment “Hmm?” she thinks menacingly smirking largely as she grabs her gun on her hip and aims at the doorknob.

“I wouldn’t do that if I were you.” Ed says smugly from behind her sitting at the table he’s been sitting at for the past hour or two, he gave up researching when Riza never gave up getting the door open.

She huffs and turns around sharply “And why not?” she asks indigenously as she gets ready to shoot him for rejecting her plan of getting out of here.

Ed smirks “It’s destruction to government property.”

Riza blinks once then turns to the damn door once again “Damn you.” she curses kicking the door a few more times before glaring back at Ed for stopping her “So what are we supposed to do then?” she asks as she flops down on a chair next to him.

Ed shrugs “They usually come early.”

“Right and what about my poor Hayate? Hmm?” she asks menacingly staring him down as he ignores her and gets back to work.

“He’ll survive.” Ed says absentmindedly.

Riza sighs looking over his shoulder “Why exactly are you looking this up?” she asks him curiously looking up into his eyes and even more surprising to see an unbearable sadness in his eyes as she gasps.

“I-I,” he stutters out thinking if he should tell her the truth or not when Ed finally gives up “I think I created one.”

“What?” Riza gasps.

“You know we tried to resurrect our mother?” he asks looking up to her expectantly as she nods “Well I never told anyone this only Hughes, but the thing we created wasn’t human.”

She looks down sadly at the book “You killed it didn’t you or at least tried to.” she says more of a statement then actually asking but he nods non the less “You did what you had to do, now lets try to find something to entertain our selves shall we?” she asks doing a 180 on mood swings.

Ed looks up at her with a look of admiration and nods “Sure.”

“To bad we don’t have popcorn or something.” Riza says going through the boxes and everything that they had stored.

Ed shakes his head as he get sup to help her “You do realize they are going to have our heads for this?”

She shrugs with a glint of mischief in her eyes “They’ll have to take it up with our superior.” was the only thing she said before diving head first into boxes as Ed laughs as she continues to search for something.

--The Next morning--

Ed stirs slightly waking Riza up who had curled up unconsciously next to him as she blushes a bright shade of crimson as one of the librarians spot them as she quickly sits up away from him “Edward?” Sheshka asks giving Riza a knowing smile as Ed stirs and sits up half a sleep “Ed did you get locked in again?” Sheshka asks with her hands on her hips.

Ed blinks then shrugs sheepishly as Riza looks at him strangely as to say ‘Again?’ Ed waves her off as he stands up putting away a book he had taken to reading “You know me.”

Sheshka and the other librarian laugh as they walk over and unlock everything “At least we don’t have to worry about you stealing anything you don‘t make it past the door.” they hear Sheshka say making Riza laugh lightly as Ed helps her up as they head for breakfast.

“Well that was an interesting night.” Ed says charmingly walking out of the library as the Librarians shake their head they had told stories, made snakes,? Snacks and Riza taught him a new game of poker and it's not strip poker to all you sickos out there.

“I’ll say.“ Riza chuckles lightly “Goodbye Ed.” she says walking to her apartment as Ed shakes his head walking to the dorms.

Ed walks through the door smiling slightly as he goes to lay down when he spots a familiar figure glaring him down “Nii-san where were you last night?” Al asks fuming and just about scary at the moment as Ed laughs nervously.

“I was-- I was--.” Ed stutters trying to calm his brother down then stops for a moment noticing that usually Al and him are locked in together “Aren’t I supposed to be asking you that?” Ed asks skeptically.

“Uhh, don’t change the subject, you got locked in the Library again didn’t you?” Al asks trying to hurriedly change the subject covering his chest plate a little as he sweats.

“At least I had company in the Library” he mumbles to himself as he opens his mouth to answer when “Yep.” A muffled bark sound comes from his stomach as Al scoots closer to the door Ed looks up at him with slited eyes “Al.” he says warningly.

Al looks at him with a deer in a headlight expression as he eyes the exit then to a window “Hai.”

“Did your stomach bark?” he asks menacingly.

“No.” al says inching closer to the door before a “Yep.” could be heard once more.

“How many times do I have to tell you,” Ed says stalking closer to him in a rage as Al scoots closer to the door “don’t bring home stray animals home.”

“Once.” was the only thing he said before bolting out the door with Ed hot on his heels as everyone runs the opposite way everyone knows better then getting in his way.

“Al get back here!”

“But Nii-san Fuery couldn’t find anyone to give it too.”

-------------------------------------------

--Central somewhere and sometime later?--

“Al, give me the puppy.” Ed says completely out of breath after he managed to finally corner the large suit of armor in an alley way, he was bending over trying to catch his breath as Al looks at him scaredly.

“But, Nii-san.” Al whines.

“Al.” Ed says gritting his teeth.

Al finally sighs and takes out the pup and sets him in Ed’s hands as they both stare at each other as Al laughs “I think she likes you.” he says petting her “Yep.” the little white dog with umber eyes looks at him expectantly as he pets her lightly “Can we keep her Nii-san? Please?”

“We don’t have the stuff to care for it.” Ed says setting it down as it whines.

“But Riza does she knows how to take care of a puppy not to mention Hayate goes with her where ever she goes so this shouldn’t be a problem and I know you like Dogs better and Mom never let us get a pet.” Al says picking up the little puppy as he gives a pleading and sad tone to him, Ed groans looking away “Please?”

“Why did you have to be an animal lover?” he says throwing his hands up in defeat “Fine, but you can‘t have anymore animals got it.”

“Thank you Nii-san.” Al says rushing back to the dorms with Ed in haul.

“I just had to have a soft spot for Al.” Ed mumbles lightly faking to be angry as Al talks animatedly and the dog jumps in his arms yapping up a storm but he was glad to hear some innocence still in his tone of voice once more even if it was at his own expense.

“Hey Nii-san what should we name her?” Al asks excitedly as the puppy continues to bark and lick him lightly for taking him in.

“Road kill comes to mind.” Ed mumbles to himself as he walks with Al back to the dorms.
