Chapter 11: Confrontation
"Why did आप leave!?" Edward sat at the side of Charlotte, she was all curled up with a book in her hands; a sheet strewn across her petite form. "I couldn't sleep Ed, I'm sorry." She gave him a pouted lip and her eyes grew wet. Ed leapt from his chair and waved his arms. "No! Don't cry! I'm sorry for asking, I was just worried " Mason sat across from Edward, Ling perched on the heater while May was curled up in Al's lap. "You have a great way with the ladies Ed." Edward growled and tossed a nearby book at Mason, which he easily dodged. "Shut up! It's not like that!" Ling laughed half-heartedly. "It sure did earlier." May leapt up with Xiao-May cuddled up in her arms. "Here." She offered up her tiny Panda to her. "Aw. Thanks May." It crawled up into her arms and suckled on her finger. "You're one to talk! You're all over her!" Ling sat, amused at his own witty banter. "Jealous?" He grinned the biggest grin possible as Edward threw a large book and hit him square between the eyes. "SHUT UP! I DON'T LIKE HER!" Charlotte's head hung, just a little bit.
"More dead bodies." Roy कहा as he watched them cover the bodies with a tarp. Mason took the place of Edward, as he had stayed back in the hotel to keep चालट, चार्लोट, शेर्लोट company, her wounds were deep, she had been cut slightly द्वारा Envy, right through her transmutation circle. "So you're Mason. Edward never mentioned he had a brother other than Alphonse." Mason bent down and peeked under the tarp with a grim look on his face. "Yea well, he's not the kind of person who would hang around with me." May hid behind Al's armor, shaking in her tiny boots. "Alphonse, what if I'm next?" Al Bent down and picked up the poor shaking girl. "There's no way I will let that happen May, I assure आप आप will be fine." Roy turned to 1st Lieutenant Riza, Smiling coyly. "Maybe आप need a bit of protecting, Hawkeye. I can offer that care." Riza placed a pistol upon his temple and कहा without even looking at him "Oh Colonel, I'm thankful for your concern, buy I'm sure I can take care of myself." Then she cocked it, sliding s bullet into the chamber with a click. "What do आप think?" Roy cleared his throat as a bead of sweat rolled down his forehead. "Well, Mason I want आप to get your brother and his girlfriend." The rest of the group burst out laughing at the चोटी, शीर्ष of their lungs. "That's not his girlfriend!" Ling put up two of his fingers and made a flexing motion. "Supposedly! Haha!"
"Ed!" Ling kicked in the door to their hotel room. "Shhhh! Quiet!" Edward was lying in his bed, the tv turned down to a quiet volume, चालट, चार्लोट, शेर्लोट rolled over to face the window, sleeping. "Ah. Sorry." Ling whispered, closing the door with a silent click. "Roy sent us to get आप two." Edward motioned to the slumbering form of Charlotte. "We can't take her with us. I'm not waking her up." And with that they left चालट, चार्लोट, शेर्लोट all to herself.
A loud crash woke up the slumbering blonde, she as rolled over to face the window. She rubbed her glassy eyes and kicked off the covers, exposing her bandaged feet and knees. चालट, चार्लोट, शेर्लोट glanced over to the बिस्तर अगला to her, finding it empty. "He left." She leaned back in her bed, suddenly having a feeling that she wasn't alone. She turned back to tue window, finding it smashed to pieces. "What the-" चालट, चार्लोट, शेर्लोट shuffled out of बिस्तर quickly, scrambling for the phone. "Don't be so frantic, आप don't want to hurt us even और do you?" चालट, चार्लोट, शेर्लोट stopped pressing buttons once she heard the raspy voice. The "Thing" was sitting on her bed, bony legs dangling off the edge. It was cloaked in Edward's Flammel jacket
. It looked like a disheveled version of herself, it's ribs stuck out terribly, it's fingers were gangly and her whole face was sunk in. The hair was a dishwater blonde, laying flat to it's scalp. It had no features, though it was unclothed, and it's eyes glowed an unearthly crimson. "Remember the first time आप touched..." It flew at her at a break-neck pace, touching her transmutation circle. "This?" He simple touch of her fingers sent a scalding sensation throughout her entire body. "That's what created me!" Her body slowly broke down into a mist, Charlotte's body engulfing the fingers that touched the circle. "For every person I killed, आप become stronger. Philosopher stones require raw materials. Humans." As it spoke, it was slowly being broken down and consumed द्वारा Charlotte, making her दिल race. "Your purpose shall be fulfilled soon enough." It was now up to her shoulder, dissolving her molecule द्वारा molecule. Then suddenly, the rest of her body was pulled into the void of Charlotte, making her cry out in pain.
"You heard that right?" Edward कहा as he spun around on his heels. The group was headed back to check on चालट, चार्लोट, शेर्लोट when they heard the vicious caterwaul. "Yea, I heard it." कहा mason, as he took off running toward the hotel. They all burst in the door, taking in the horrible scene before them. The window, broken wide open, a phone tossed onI the floor, sheets and pillows wrapped up in a large pile, and a shaking Charlotte, blood dripping out from beneath her pajamas. "What the hell! Charlotte!" Edward cried as he ran to her side. "Ling! Get some sheets!" Edward folded her up in white sheet, blood leaking through and staining the a brown color. "A-Alphonse! Carry her!" She watched as Alphonse picked her up, though her vision was blurry from major blood loss, she could vaguely make out the basic shapes and colors. Then suddenly, everything went black.
