36: a key
Roy: so how do I make a deal?
Frin: I don't know... Touch it? Try to convey your feelings. I... Don't know...
Roy: -_- wow. That's very useful. Your very 'helpful' useless information.
Frin: urusei. I've never talked to the door. How would I know.
Roy: fine~~~ *stares* geee...
Frin: its not my fault!!!
" I'll try. " he touches the door and closes his eyes... He tries to think convey a message...
Roy pov:
Ooi. Answer. Door. I want to make a deal.
How rude. But you're not the first.
I've always been curious. What are you?
Hehe. You're one of the few who would ask this question. Many just want to pass me.
I'm curious.
Everyone is. Just some people are more curious what's beyond me than me. And you... Are curious about me yet want to cross me. Are you trying to find some weakness?
If its possible.
Hahaha... I'm made out of a thousand sacrifices. A thousand human souls. With one determined wish. To create me to create this other world.
I see. Than I guess it wouldn't be wrong to say you have emotions.
I'm not made up of emotions. I am not a thousand souls. I don't convey feelings of a thousand souls.
Avoiding my question.
Just learning from humans. Just learning. I'm not Truth, I don't have to be candid.
True enough.
So what can you offer me? Human. Roy mustang.
What can I offer you? That's more like my question.
True.You are a man who knows his things. Alright than... Here is my deal. When kia dies,you will be my gatekeeper.
You expecting her to die? How evil.
I really like kia. But she has to die one day. From being my gatekeeper or being an agent.
What do you mean?
My gatekeepers, reserve gatekeepers don't age. They die only of injuries.
I see.
You must know,even if you try to run away to the outside world because one day you decide to regret,it won't be of use. I will catch you and make you my gatekeeper.
I see. That damn kia... She better doesn't die than. Why me?
All of you gatekeepers ask me that question. You... Because you make an effort to make your way work. You see differently than other people. You doubt...
Now you make me sound like kia.
A little. Your choice. Human. For this one time open door.
Do I get to open this door whenever I like?
Oh. You're pushing it.
I have to come back here. I cannot simply leave kia or liasli sisters here. Or elric brothers. All the fights... Important ones are probably in here.
Alright than,extra condition for you. In return... Find a man. Find him,bring him to me and you can open the door whenever you want.
Fine. I agree. Even a door knows how to push it, over a human. Oh well. You are powerful.
Good luck Roy mustang.
I open my eyes and the door opens a bit,just enough for one person to walk through " cheapskate door. "
All of us walked through it one by one

Rita: so... We need to find kia. Can you track her somehow? Yuki.
Yuki: not by using the communication circle. She must be in a room with anti alchemy circle or cuffed with anti alchemy.
Ed: tsk, is there really no way to track her?
Rita: hmm... There must be a way... Ah. That.
Al: did you think of something?
Rita: hehe. I am so happy I did something as perverted as this.
al: -_- she just admitted right. Right? That she is a pervert.
ed: ah. I heard it clearly.
rita: urusei!! That doesn't matter. Yuki, you and kia's communication circle has to be transmitted both sides right?
yuki: hai. That's why we can track each other so quickly. This alchemy searches for a special circle frequency and attaches itself to it. Meaning, our circles are always activated.
al: won't that be tiring.
yuki: its okay for the three of us though.
rita: I forced kia to put a circle onto her. And myself... *rolls up sleeve* Mine can just search for kia's and force open her communication channel.
ed: this circle... its not a communication channel.
rita: its all the same isn't it?
ed: you are going to force yourself into her mind.
rita: who cares. It works.
She closes her eyes and... alchemy reacts... it took quite a long time for the alchemy to look for kia's blood and circle.
rita pov:
ehto... I am still looking for it. Suddenly I go into a white space. This should be it. Kia's mind. I call out to her "kia. kia." Suddenly many images flash across my eyes. Killing of people. Our missions.
I am going to kill a child... *kills* now the mother... now... everyone else in this mansion. No one must be alive. Nii-san said so. Its my mission. I don't want to... They didn't do anything wrong. Couldn't I just scare them and than let them off?
" don't kill me!! Please!! Please!! I promise not to say anything!! I promise!!"
Look at their faces... can't I let them go? *kills* no. I guess not... NIi-san said...
*slice* Blood drips. I was guessing its her blood.
That's right, people panic and kill when they are threatened. But that doesn't give me a reason to kill...
*stabs* her mother dies.
Mama... gomen. Papa ordered so. I really didn't want to. But papa said he would kill nii-san. He would kill eliza and yuki. Ale? Water? I am crying? Don't. Papa will think you are weak. Papa will make you kill people again...
Gomen rita... I am going to kill your mama. I liked her a lot. Like she was my mum. But no, I have to kill her. She betrayed me. She really wanted my life even if it was using a despicable way like poisoning . *slice* I had fun... Why do you want to force me to make you leave me?
My mother was smiling... I was enraged. My mother... I don't know why but... I just couldn't accept she just... Killed my mother " ah !!!!!" Tears flowed down my eyes.
Tears... Wasn't my emotions like these all supposed to be gone? I don't even have someone to lean on. Why are they flowing out?
ed: rita!!! rita!!
I open my eyes realising I was still crying " what?"
al: daijobu?
zihein: what did you see?
rita: kia... has been suffering. That bitch...
I close my eyes again, " kia!! ANSWER ME!!"
kia: rita....?
A figure faintly forms. The figure starts to form colour. Its a she. I know its her.
rita: kia... *hugs* daijobu?
Kia: ri..ta...?
She was crying. Non stop. Like she couldn't stop " ri... Ta... Will you leave me too?"
Rita: I'm coming to fetch you. Where are you?
Kia: rita!!!
She keeps on crying after a short moment of happiness " no... I... I don't deserve your help. " she push me away.
Rita: its ok. I want you back. Tell me. Where are you?
Kia: want... Me...
Rita: um.
Kia: reyuglus. Some... Underground.
Rita: wait for me ok. I'm coming.
Kia: um.... Neh!!
Rita: hai?
Kia: ed... Never mind...
I hug her " he's fine. He's coming to find you too. "
Kia: eh...
Rita: all of us are.
