Chapter 9: Dog of the Military

Ed waltzed into the military headquarters with a bright smile. A smile that freaked out most of the military, but anyways, back to the part when he's walking towards Roy's office.

"Well, well what do we have here?" Ed asked as he saw Mustang on top of Riza leaning on his desk, making out. Ed was shocked and amused; he would need a few sessions of therapy after this though.

"Mustang, you know that the dare is over and I win, right?" Ed lifted an eyebrow.

Mustang noticed Ed and simply smirked. "I know and I bet you and your girlfriend enjoyed the make out?" Ed turned red getting a laugh out of both Roy and Riza.

"I've decided Colonel, you will be following around Black Hayate for a week!" Ed shouted triumphantly as he spotted the said dog in the corner watching them.

"But he's a dog," the Colonel pointed at the black and white animal.

"No, really? Thanks for the lesson in biology. I said you're following Black Hayate and that's final, you never said it HAD to be a person."

"He's right sir," Riza said looking amused.

The week was going to be hell for Mustang. He could tell from the start. Black Hayate 'accidentally' peed on his costume, which was way too small in the first place. He had counted on Ed to lose.

"Ack! Riza, he peed on my suit!" Roy held up the now-wet suit.

"Well, you can blame Hayate, he doesn't do that to MY things…" she continued with her work. So what did that leave Roy? A stinky, peed-on suit that was a few sizes too small.

"This is all your fault, Full Metal! If you weren't so small!" Ed twitched at this comment.

"WHO'RE YOU CALLING SO SMALL HE NEEDS TO SHRINK HIS LAUNDRY IN THE WASH SO THEY'D FIT?"

"Not now Full Metal, can't you see I'm ranting here?" Roy went back to fuming about the suit.

Well Mustang ended up wearing the stinky suit and everyone was happy. Everyone that was, except for himself.

"Colonel, I think it's better to take care of that business in the bathroom, I know you're dressing up as a dog and all, but that doesn't mean you have to do IT in there…" Havoc held his nose making him sound nerdy.

"It was Black Hayate," Roy said, pointing at the dog he'd been following.

"Now, now, Colonel, don't go blaming your little accident on the innocent puppy.

"No really, he peed on my costume and everyone forced me to put it on," he explained.

"Sure…" Havoc said as he was turning away from his commanding officer.

Throughout the first day the joke about being 'dog of the military' and dressing the role was already getting old. Mustang winced at the thought of wearing it the whole week.

For once, Roy had wished he were wrong for once. He had threatened everyone that if they were to call him 'dog of the military' one more time, he'd snap, literally, which stopped the teasing quickly.

So, during the whole week Roy followed Black Hayate around, which was also like following Riza around because all the dog did was eat, sleep and go to the bathroom other than that. The good thing was that he finally got to wash the costume and get it back fast enough to put on the next day, unfortunately, it shrunk even more. He earned a near-bullet from the head, too after trying to follow Riza home. It went sorta like this:

"So, Riza, any chance I would be following you home tonight?" Riza knew what he was implying and put her hand on her gun.

"So that would be a no?" Roy added bravely. Wrong choice. Riza grabbed her gun and shot two bullets on each side of his head.

So, as you can see, it wasn't exactly pleasant. When Roy had finally finished his week of punishment and humiliation, he sighed a breath of relief.

"Finally, that week of hell was finally over!" He said it as if he had just ran a marathon the whole week, out of breath and nearly dead.

"Aw…Mustang tired? Well that's what you get for making me do those ridiculous dares!" Ed said triumphantly.

"Speaking about the dare, why were you sleeping in Winry's room after the last dare?" Al asked innocently, obviously not noticing anything wrong with what he said.

"Al!" Winry and Ed said at the same time. They turned red, which had been very often lately.

"Oh really, Full Metal, I bet you had a nice time," Roy now lost the look of exhaustion and gained a look of amusement.

"Shut up Mustang! I'm not you! Geez!" Ed said obviously embarrassed and angry.

"Al! How could you tell!" Winry turned accusingly at Al.

"Uh, should I start running now?" He turned to face Mustang. Roy nodded and Al raced off faster than you could say 'shrimp', with 2 very anry-looking blonds after him.

Even though he wouldn't admit it to Mustang, Ed had gotten closer with Winry and same goes with Mustang and Riza. To think, all this started with a silly little game of Truth or Dare.

Owari.
