After his little alchemist calmed down, Roy ruffled his hair one more time before removing himself, and sitting down in his chair. Ed plopped onto the couch, and sat there, waiting for Roy to speak. "We have a new mission." The Colonel began. The blonde raised an eye brow.

"We.....?" He mumbled. The Colonel nodded again. "Yes. The Fuhrer assigned me to a mission, and wanted you to tag along." He explained. Ed nodded.

"I have one question however." The blonde suddenly stated.

"Hm? What is it?" Roy replied.

"The equivalent exchange." Was all he stated. The Colonel raised an eye brow.

"What about it?"

"You said apart of the deal was that you'd give me information on the stone in exchange for...." He trailed off, not wanting to say the thing that kept him awake at night for time to time. Roy nodded.

"That, is true. However, there is nothing in relations to the philosophers stone, so there's no need for the exchange for this particular mission. Understand?" The boy nodded in reply. The Colonel suddenly smirked.

"However, if you would still want to participate I-" He was cut off by an explosion named Edward.

"YOU PERVERT COLONEL! WHY WOULD I?!" This however made the raven haired man laugh.

"Just a thought Fullmetal, that's all." He replied. Ed nodded, and sat back down after his outburst, blushing slightly. Ed sighed and looked around, trying to look anywhere, but, the Colonel. His thoughts were running crazy.

'There's no way! I can not be in love with him! He's a bastard, pervert, idiot, maybe even a dictator!' The blonde thought rapidly. A sound of Roy clearing his throat, snapped the boy from his thoughts.

"I take it you don't want information on the mission?" The Colonel asked. Ed sent him a glare.

"I'd rather not get injured because I went in blindly, so yeah, information would help." He replied. Roy nodded.

"Cargo has been going missing lately. All of the cargo is military issued weapons. The Fuhrer wants this guy caught." He explained. Ed nodded.

"If this guy is stealing cargo, and it's military weapons, this guy might be planning a riot...." The blonde alchemist trailed off.

"My thoughts exactly." Roy agreed.
