Eliza: you guys are bored aren't you?

Ed: well... There's nothing to really go on...

Eliza: hehe. *eyes sparkles * I'm not called eliza the genius for nothing you know. Follow me.

They see big shelves that reach the ceilings... Long ladders that slide. Platforms that form the second story to reach higher shelves. The three of their eyes sparkles " all these... Alchemy? "

Eliza: hai. I have a hobby of collecting things. Alchemy books... Hehe. One of them.

Ed: you are the best!!!

Al: you're amazing!!!

May: agree!!! Even healing books?

Eliza: ah. Even xing alchemy. All the transmutation circle you want to find and know.

Both of their eyes sparkles

Eliza: But actually... The basics are almost the same. Decomposition and reconstruction. The only difference is... We know how to use energy more efficiently. You can use energy to do almost anything. The transmutation circle... Is like your medium to go through the process of decomposition and reconstruction.

Al: looks like eliza you really did some research yourself.

Eliza: well... My mum was a genius.. I was talented and so my mum really taught me things. See all those circles on kia's weapons?

Ed: they're made by you?

Al: amazing!!!

Eliza: well... *blush* you could say that. I did invent a few... Circles.

May: don't you get all blushy!! Al is mine!!

Al: a few? How many?!

Eliza: um... Fifty maybe?

Ed/al: fifty?!!!! A few?!!

Eliza: a few. My ma invented two hundred in her lifetime.

Ed/al: 2 hundred?!!!

Eliza: but when it comes to healing alchemy... I'm just really bad at it. Yuki is a lot better than me on that. Body functions and all that. She's like a doctor.

May: eh... She's so cool.

Ed: so much for youngest state alchemist... *draws mushrooms *

Al: heh.... Nii-san...

Ed: just curious but... Did anyone... Succeed... In.. Revive people?

Al: nii-san!!! Are you trying to revive... Winryl?!!!

Ed: its not like that.

Eliza: ya. There is.

The three of them widens their eyes.

Eliza: me and yuki are examples.

Ed: what...

Al: are you serious?!!!

May: how is that even possible?!!

Eliza: Nee-chan did it. Twice.

Ed: how?!!

Al: yea!! Using what?!!

Eliza: I don't know. Nee-chan never says.

Ed: yuki. I have a request.

Yuki: *sucks on lollipops * huh?

Ed: can you come with me to amestries? Heal my sensei's wound.

Yuki: that... That do you have money?

Ed: well... Well... * finger hitting finger playing around. * how much...

Yuki: 1000,000 000.

Ed/al : eh?!!!!

Yuki: by case basis. One part. One case.

Ed: al. Do you have that money?

Al: gomen nii-san... *anime cries *...

Ed: *pats al's shoulder * its ok. Its ok. I don't have that kind of money!!! Can't I owe you?

Yuki: no. What if you run? Or don't pay up?

Ed: than... Can't I owe you something?

Yuki: hmm... If you could complete an impossible task. I would not charge you for anybody I heal.

Ed: hn. I like challenges.

Yuki: make my nee-chan cry in front of nii-san and her boyfriend's tomb.

Ed: what... Nii-san? Died? I thought...

Yuki: roy isn't our real biological nii-san. We just acknowledged him so. He would carry our liasli name here. And we carry his name in the outside world. It was that kind of deal.

Al: you mean she has never cried... In front of her beloved ones? How cold.

Ed: deal.

Al: nii-san...

Ed: hey.

Kia: what? I'm sleeping...

He takes a seat at the chair opposite from her bed.

Ed: your nii-san... I heard from yuki. He's dead.

Kia: roy isn't my biological nii-san. I didn't revive him. You can forget about asking about revival of winryl.

Ed: how did you cheat the Truth? I'm just curious.

Kia sits up and turns to face him " curious? What are you really thinking? Edward elric. "

Ed: alchemists are scientists. I want to know the facts. I promise I won't try to revive winryl. At least now.

Kia: I will never tell you.

Ed: you used one of the three lives you were given to revive one of them.

Kia: I died to make an offer to get back them. Its something you can never do. Al. You can't just abandon him. Can you? He's your only family.

Ed: that's one person. What did you do to revive the other? How did you cheat them?

Kia: you want the truth?

Ed: ah.

Kia: I used my papa as an offering. Sacrifice. His soul.

He grabbed onto her collar " are you inhumane?!!! "

Kia: he killed far more innocent people than his title as colonel says he does.

Ed: but.... He's... !!!

Kia: and than I gave all my arms and legs. So... Yuki revived.

Ed: listen to me DAMN IT!!!

Kia: I escaped death. Truth hated me for not dying or having to sacrifice anything that I couldn't have back. Honestly it was a gamble. But planned. So than... I could get back parts and be human again. Arms. Legs. Than I opened the door again. This time... For eliza.

Ed: wasn't your father important to you?!!!

Kia: a crazy adrenaline killer. You want that as your father?

He hesitated... And let go... " than you offered your soul to Truth. You wanted to die. But they offered you something else. A job. My kind of job... Right? "

Kia: ah. And they still want me dead as of still now.

Ed: truth punishes humans in areas of where they are arrogant in.

Kia: it was a gamble. I expected fully to die both times. I just... Luckily survived. But you.... *eyes at his metal leg * don't seem to have my luck.

Ed: *looks to his leg * no... I was arrogant.

Kia: than don't make the same mistake.
