Lumina- This is my first challenge pairing, picked randomly, with a random title. If you can tell me who sings Falling Away from me, Kudos to you! And this is rated M for a reason, people!

Disclaimer- I don't own Fullmetal Alchemist... If only I did, then there would be a lot of randomness... They wouldn't sell it to me anyways.

Warnings- The only thing I really have to warn you about in this chapter is a rape scene. Yes people, this early on.

Chapter 1- Enticement

Flashback

It was a warm, summer day, and most people were out and about in Central, doing their shopping, having fun, and just plain going about there own business. This was also true of Winry, who was looking through plenty of old stores for the proper tools to be used in furthering her automail business. Ed and Al walked along behind her, both with their long, blond hair tied back, Ed's in a braid, Al's in a ponytail, as they took in their surroundings.

Al was pretty weighted down with bags from Winry's shopping spree of the day, but he didn't complain. Ed on the other hand, who had about fifty more bags in his hands, wouldn't shut up. Winry was beginning to get a little ticked off. "Come on Winry! Just a teensy little br..."

"Don't tell me you're wimping out already, Edward," Winry replied, hoping to provoke the young alchemist. Possibly, this could keep him going, trying to prove himself to the blond in front of him, who was in fact the one giving him all the orders... He opened his mouth to respond, but didn't get far as Winry pointed out another store. "Oh look! They're having a sale today!" Al just about dropped the bags from the sudden statement, and regained himself as he followed both Ed and Winry over to the other side of the street. This was no easy task, as the roads were packed with other people, shopping and going about their ways.

"Hey Winry, don't you think maybe you already have enough items for one day?" Al asked, setting the bags down on the ground and plopping down on a bench, which was, quite luckily, empty. Edward did the same and joined his brother.

"Are you kidding me! There's so much stuff here! Do you have any idea how lucky I am to be in Central? I never get to come here!" Without Ed and Al, she dissapeared into the store, or at least into the large crowd of people. The building was small enough that had she been the only one inside, the Elric brothers would have been able to keep track of her.

It was another ten minutes before she reappeared next to Edward and Alphonse, holding three more bags, probably filled to the brim with heavy objects such as wrenches or screw drivers. When Ed looked up and saw this, he practically exploaded. "Jesus, Winry! How much do you think I can hold!" Winry's face fell, but only for a second as she regained her lost composure, and shoved all three of the bags into Al's hands. He flinched.

"If you won't hold them for me, I'm sure Al will." She looked at Al questionably, who was staring back at her with almost the same look on his face. She gave him a large smile. He imediately sighed and picked up the other three bags, looking like he was about to topple over at any given second. Still, Winry looked pleased with herself, and gave Ed a look of 'See, I told you so.'

They continued about their way, until they reached a large looking store, filled with more mechanics for Winry to stare at. Ed knew exactly what was coming. "You guys, can we go in here? Pretty please..." Ed was tempted to say no, but he also knew it wouldn't do him any good, so he sighed, and motioned for his younger brother to follow the blonde girl inside.

It was packed with people, and as Winry jumped around to random corners and ends of the store, Ed and Al soon lost sight of the automail mechanic. "I've had just about enough of this..." Ed announced, setting the bags onto the ground and looking around for wherever Winry had ended up at.

"Let's just... Keep looking." And so they did. Winry meanwhile, on the other end of the store, figured the Elrics hadn't followed her inside, and thus walked out the back door, prepared to walk around to the front, looking for the two brothers. What she saw however, was not a way around to the front of the store, but a back alley. Wonderful, she thought to herself, looking around to see if there was a gate leading back to the streets of Central. There was nothing. She sighed to herself, and turned around, ready to go back into the large group of people blocking her from the Elric brothers.

The door however, was locked.

"That's strange... I just came through here." With no other way to go, Winry wandered further down the alleyway. Maybe there would be a connecting path at the end that would allow her back into the streets. But at the end, there was still nothing. "What..." She turned around again, going back towards the door, but before she could turn the corner, something, or rather someone, stopped her. There was Ed, standing, leaning against the corner with his flesh arm holding him up. "Oh thank God. Did you come through that door, too?" Ed never answered, instead walking towards Winry with a strange look in his eyes. The look of want. "Edward...?"

Ed said nothing. He didn't even act as though he'd heard a single thing she'd just said. Instead, he pinned her against the wall, forcing her backwards as she screamed. "Ed, what the hell are you doing! Ed!" She was practically screaming her lungs out, or at least until Ed forced his lips onto hers. When he pulled off, she looked at him cautiously, wondering if he was opening up to her or something, but that was only until...

Whack!

Winry hit the ground, bleeding from her mouth, which now had a scrape next to it. She looked up the blond alchemist standing above her, who was staring down at her with a smirk plastered on his face. Kneeling down, he kissed her again, this time placing his tongue in her mouth against her will. She tried pushing him off, but only managed to get his mouth away from hers. She screamed again.

"Shut up," Ed hissed, smacking her across the face, giving her a bruise on her cheek this time. "Or you'll only make this harder on yourself."

She cringed when she felt him lifting her skirt up, pulling down the undergarment, and then... Winry held back the screams when he entered her, forever shattering the innocence that had been there just a few seconds ago. Tears streamed from her eyes when he finally came into her, pulled out, still smirking, and stood up, looking down at her with triumph spelt across his face in bold.

"Now be a good little girl and don't tell anyone. If you do, I'll kill you." Just to prove his point, Ed lifted his automail leg back, and kicked out as hard as he could, hitting her almost squarely in the forehead and knocking her out. He retreated as the young blond girl lay there, bleeding and crying at the same time.

Back inside of the building, the Elric brother's continued to look around for their female friend, who'd been gone for at least a good hour by now. "I'm getting really sick of her bullshit. Honestly, why do you listen to her!" Ed asked his younger brother, who shrugged as they walked past the door Winry had earlier exited from. "Let's go ask the clerk..." Al nodded in agreement.

Winry still lay, a mess on the concrete in the back alleyway behind the building. For the wonderful sunny day it had been, it was turning out to be a really shitty day nonetheless. She still had tears coming from her eyes, and blood coming from a few places all over her body as rain began to fall, mixing with the tears and flushing the blood away to random corners of the alley. Deciding she didn't want anyone to find her like this, she pushed herself up, pulling her skirt back on.

She limped across the concrete, around the corner, and back towards the door, finding that this time, it was open.

Heading for the cleark, she proceeded over, about to ask where she could clean herself up. She noticed a lot of people staring at her, but she'd decided to ignore them. It was only making her think of how red her face must be by now, what from the tears and blood smeared all over the place. When she reached the front desk, a young man with brown hair looked up at her, and flinched. "Excuse me, but could you... Point me to a restroom?" Winry felt the tears welling up again, but held them inside. She couldn't let others see her drowing in her sorrow.

"Sure ma'am but could I ask what.. happened?" Winry thought for a long moment, but upon remembering what Ed had told her...

"I just tripped over a curb is all... Those streets are so busy." She put on the best fake smile she possibly could, and a disbelieving clerk pointed over to the corner where a bathroom was stationed. "Thank you." He nodded at her, and then tended to the line of people she'd been holding up.

Once through the restroom door, she stood in front of the mirror, only to choke in horror on a few more tears when she saw what had become of her face. A few bruises here, a scratch over there... He'd almost chipped her tooth off at one point when he tried to punch her. She washed her face off as best she could, trying to get the tear stains to leave, but the red and purple markings were still there. When she felt she'd done the job as best she could, she exited the bathroom.

Ed and Al were standing there, staring at her, Ed still throwing a fit.

"Where the hell were you! We wandered around here for almost two hours for your sorry ass!" Winry cringed, tears welling again. Ed saw this and imediately backed off. Raising his hands in the air, he tried to come up with a good excuse to make her feel better, especially so she wouldn't whack him with one of her newly purchased wrenches. "Uh, what's up with you then?"

"Oh, nothing," Winry replied, looking fearfully at the alchemist. She reached down, grabbing all of the bags he had been carrying, and giving him another fake smile, this one well played out. "Let's go then."

Lumina- So what'd ya think? Like it, hate it? Review please. No reviews, no chapters!
