Raven-sama: Hello! It has been a while since I last updated. I apologize for the one year delay. I was lacking of inspiration….

Chapter 10: The Remains.
oxoxoxoxox
"Wha-what the hell..." Ed stammered, he couldn't believe his own eyes. In front of him were ruined building, which was supposed to be the Head Quarters. "Are you sure this is...?"
"Yes, from what I believe, this was my workdesk." Roy said as he picked up a wooden fragment. Ed's eyes widened in horror as he looked at the remains, smoke was still hovering above it.
"It can't be... Al! Riza-san!!" Ed jumped out of Roy's back and ran towards the ruins despite his ankle hurting so much. "Oof!" And he tripped over.
"Ed!" Roy quickly rushed to Ed's side. "Don't be reckless, your ankle hasn't healed yet --"
The smaller alchemist shoved the older man, he stood up clumsily. "Damn it... I have to find Al and everyone else -- "
"Brother?"
Both alchemists turned to the source of the voice. "Al?!" Ed bolted up and hugged the armor. "It's you! I'm so glad that you're unharmed!"
The armor hugged his over-joyed brother. Al would have been smiling if a suit of armor could do it. Then he saw Roy walked up to him. "Alphonse, do you know what happened to the Head Quarters?"
Al shook his head. "I was outside so I don't know what was going on. All I know is when I came back it was like this..." He said solemnly. Roy sighed, he scratched his head and looked at what was left of the Head Quarters.
"We'll need some help here..."

"Waaah man, I'm so tired, cleaning out all of those was such a pain..."
Havoc groaned as he stretched his sore muscles. He took the mug of coffee that Breda handed him, muttering a 'thank you', he sighed. "Anyway, Colonel, where had you been? And where was boss, also. Did you two go together or what?"
A blush slowly crept up Ed's cheeks, he was about to say something when Roy butted in, stopping Ed from saying anything unnecessary. "Edward and I had some errands to do." He stated lamely, well, that was half true. "And do you mind telling me what happened when I wasn't here?"
Havoc, Breda, Fury and Farman jumped into the air, then retreated into a corner and whimpered like frightened puppies. Ed and Roy sweat dropped at the ridiculous scene. "What's up with you guys? And where's Riza-san anyway?" Ed asked, noticing that the First Lieutenant is missing. (A/N: Heh, took you long enough, Eddie.)
"AAAAH!!" The four men in the corner screamed like four-year-old girls and dashed out, leaving Roy and Ed in dust.
"What the hell…."

The Fuhrer sighed, he crossed his fingers. "First Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye." He murmured. "Could you please tell me how all of this happened."
"Well..." Riza stated, unsure how to begin. Then there were light knocks on the door, then came in the Colonel and the Full Metal Alchemist. They saluted. "Good morning Fuhrer."
"Aah, hello there, Colonel Mustang and the Full Metal Alchemist, I assume that you come here to here what Lieutenant Hawkeye has to say?" The Fuhrer said with a smile.
"Actually, yes, I wanted to know what had happened to the HQ." Roy said, giving Lieutenant Hawkeye a quick glance.
Lieutenant Hawkeye sighed. "To make it short… Miss Susie went to make tea for us, then when she came back with the stray, she tripped on her own feet and spilt tea all over the guns that I've been polishing and breaking my favorite teapot in process." She said mournfully, pitying her poor guns and the teapot. "And then… I don't know how to say it, but something inside of me snapped, things were all blurry to me then when I woke up." Riza inhaled, and then exhaled. "I was in this mess."
When the First Lieutenant finished, the room was filled with the deadly silence. The Fuhrer was the first one who broke the silent mist. "Lieutenant Hawkeye, I am speechless." Then he crossed his fingers and gave the Lieutenant a stern and cold look. "You do know the consequences of your actions, right?"
Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye bowed. "Yes, sir. I will hold full responsibility." The Colonel and the alchemist were praying silently for Riza's safety.
The Fuhrer sighed, he took the pen on the table and began to write something down. "Colonel Mustang." Roy straightened at the mention of his name. "Yes?"
"Please take your crew to the Sun's hotspring tomorrow. This is the address." He handed the piece of paper to Roy.
"Yes, sir-- What?"
"Did you not hear? You are to go to the Sun's hotspring." The Fuhrer said calmly.
"That's not what I meant, sir." Roy said, fidgeting the paper in his hands. "But why hotspring?"
"Because," The Fuhrer stood up, he walked to the window behind him. "Lieutenant Hawkeye had been under too much stress lately, and I believe a hotspring would be relaxing." Then he turned to the trio. "You can take Full Metal with you, and outsiders are welcome. Just don't use up all the HQ's funds." He waved his hand. "You're dismissed."

And after that fateful incident, the HQ made out a rule which everyone must obey: never EVER make the First Lieutenant go berserk.

End of Chapter 10.

Raven: Eh, typing this chapter was a pain in the butt, 'cause I didn't have any inspiration. I apologize if the Furher and Riza-san were too... OOC (Avoids rocks and rotten tomatoes thrown at her direction by Riza's fans). And if the part with formalities was too reluctant, I'm sorry. I'm the kind of person that would say 'S'up mah nigga' instead of 'Hello good sir.'. Formal things are alien to me. XD
So, that's it for now. Please drop me a review and tell me how it was. Next chapter coming up: Onsen?!
PS: If you review the Fuhrer will give you a juicy watermelon.
