11: a fragment memory

( frin's pic)

" colonel Liasli. You're back. " the man says with a serious face.

kia: I trusted you not to open these doors.

al: these?

eliza: there is another door at the end of this white space aka bridge. They open and close at the same time.

"eliza, did you just get another new friend without me?"

she ran to him and hugged him " Frin. " He stroked her hair " I missed you " and kissed her hair.

eliza: me too.

kia: talk. Who messed with my fucking authority . HUH?

frin: not really a high ranking person. But he says its our rival gurent.

kia: hn. So yuki is fine?

frin: well... she seems happy with her new corpse.

kia: YOU LET HER KILL THE GUY? Great... now we got no chips.

roy: you changed a lot since the last time I know you.

kia: which part?

Roy: the shouting part. The kia I know was gentle and vicious.

Kia: well... Power do stuff to you I guess.

They walked towards to the other door and... They were presented with another world.

Al: this place...

Ed: its just like another city.

Eliza: it is. Just that this is a world that can only be accessed through by the door you just came through. It doesn't exist anywhere geographically on the map in the world you live in.

Ed: amazing...

Eliza: nobody knows who created this place really. The author who wrote the book of how this place was created passed to a young boy who didn't know his name before dying before his eyes.

Al: that's... Kinda sad.

Riza: well... Welcome to heinias.

" Door of reuga, close. " kia said and the big doors close.

Ed: how does it even work?

Kia: I was acknowledged by the door to be its keeper. To control the open and close of it. I can give that splitted authority to anyone else.

Ed: acknowledge... So there are certain conditions?

Kia: they say only the best would be acknowledged. My father whose so skilled tried but failed. The door rejected him and took away all his hands and legs.

Al: but he got them back right? with yuki's help.

Eliza: of course!!! Yuki can be pretty convenient you know.

May: but you were accepted neh. What was the test like?

Kia: test...

They reached the mansion.

May: big!!!

Kia: so? Where's the guy? Please tell me yuki didn't kill him.

Frin: no. But this guy did kill some of our men.

Kia: oh. Bring him.

Ed: but I thought... You said only certain people can open.

Kia: ah. That's true. But we have a certain button that can open the doors too. Its an emergency button. In case I'm not in to open the door. Thing is, I never told anyone where it is, only some people.

" kia liasli. How's the feeling in failing your job as the keeper? "

Kia: looks like I need to destroy that stupid button. You,what's your name?

" why do you care?!! "

Kia: because gurent isn't that smart to find a way to get to the emergency button. I hate to admit it but... That guy likes to win it the right way.

Roy: gurent still looks down on girls?

Frin: a lot. Who are you? You seem to know a lot. And I've never seen you here. Not that I want to boast but I know every single one in this household.

Roy: you never known me because I left before you came.

Frin: eh... So...

Riza: you're one of the people here?

Roy: was.

Kia: *anime vein* don't have your own little conversation over there!!!

Roy; gomen gomen.

Kia: who?

" you are perceptive as he said. Oh well... I just wanted to see kia liasli for one reason. Kenja no ishi... Find me. I promise a little surprise. " suddenly a reaction surrounds his body and he exploded.

Ed/Al/may : what the hell?!!!

Frin: he used his own life to exchange for an explosion. What guy...

Eliza: nee-chan!!!

Roy: kia!!!

Kia: *coughs. Coughs* (smoke clears) nothing much... Just another arm gone. I need yuki.

Eliza: you got to be more careful. Honestly.

Kia: so what did you guys find?

Eliza: probably all the same. And the man earlier convinced our presumption. The mastermind... Is in heinias.

Ed pov:

A big door... This is that door we came through. A small little girl's back... She looked sad,hesitant. Her face turned around. She than clenches her fist and smiled. She turned back to look upon the big door... And touched to it.

Than everything blacked out...

I woke up... What was that? Kia? Am I suppose to kill her? Kia did say nightmares are to kill someone. But... This didn't seem like a nightmare. At least... More like a memory.

I couldn't get it off my mind. I walked to the big gate... And... Used my hand to touch against my gate... What was that dream? I leaned my head to the gate...

Than something like a memory... Flashed...~~

Kia Liasli. You have a gift in sacrificing.

Gift? What kind of a gift is that? Anyone can do it. Its just giving.

People hesitate. You don't.

So?

You killed your mother to save your sisters. You killed innocent soldiers despite knowing they were just under orders. You were hesitant. You didn't want to. You did it anyway, because you wanted your nii-san to be safe. Free. Even the mistress who your father had. You saved her. Don't you even have hate?

Hate? She's just a woman who fell in love with the wrong man. A sadistic man. A man my mother loved. A man...

I will say it for you. A man you wished a lot to kill because you wanted to surpass him. A man... Who intrigued you with his skills. Like how he wanted to train you to the best and than fight you.

I can kill him now anyway. I'm strong enough. I guess having a sadistic man and a genuis alchemist as parents gives you things.

But you don't. Why?

Its not that I can't. I won't. I want him to feel guilty for his entire life for killing his mistress. Feel guilty... For... I don't know. He probably doesn't even have guilt.

You really liked your nii-san's mum huh.

She... Was really nice to me. She doesn't judge me like nii-san.

That's the reason why you kept him alive? What a stupid reason.

Ok... I admit. Not that mostly. I... Needed him alive as a reminder. I am not like him. I am not him!!! I don't kill without a reason... I don't... Adrenaline... Is not a reason...

That's what we need. Kia Liasli. I have decided. You shall be the keeper of this gate. Because you know who to kill and who not to kill.

You are the creator of this place right? Door.

A fragment of his soul. Prephaps... Who is to know?

That was the end of the memory....

I open my eyes and see a white space. Where am I?

Hi.

That voice..." You're the door."

Correct. Thanks for coming.

Ed: you sent me that dream? No... How's that even possible?

Well... I'm not just any door. A door that opens a world that doesn't exist. Doesn't it sound like another place to you?

Ed: the Truth.

Many died to create me. What do you think?

Ed: it is possible I guess... What do you want?

My precious kia is going to be into some trouble. I want you to help her.

Ed: why me? And precious? I didn't doors do that.

She is special. That's why I acknowledged her. A killer with many or least emotions. I've never had one like that. Its always the kind that has a lot of emotions or least emotions. I had to guide them. Give instructions. Judge on whoever passes through me. It is troublesome.

Ed: so you think she has good judgements.

At least for now. As to why I chose you... You are similar to her.

Ed: hmph. Who is?!!!

That non hesitation to sacrifice for another because of emotional attachments or reasons. Although she has much lesser of that than you. She has more... Logical reasons when she does that.

Ed: you mean like brutal fighting?

You can say that. It's... Convenient.

Ed: what do you want?

Keep her alive. Make her back a little more human like when I first acknowledged her. She's starting to... Stray a little to the dark side.

Ed: can't you just control her?

I can. But... Maybe things can be salvaged.

Ed: you are one optimistic door.

I guess. I will promise you three things. Anything you want if you can accomplish what I request of you.

Ed: sounds too good to be true.

Revive winryl. No human souls. Nothing sacrificed. How does that sound?

Ed: can you even do that?!!!!

I am something almost equivalent to the Truth. Just not it. Just almost...

Ed: *clenches fist* I'll try what you just said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I returned back to where I was with me opening my eyes once again. Kia liasli. Cold blooded killer.... Huh.
