As i walk into the Central Plaza i look around. there are a few people around, mainly sitting by the fountain in the center of the plaza. there are also several small shops dotting the edges of the area, and i notice a couple uniformed men standing at the opposite side of the plaza. they look like they're in the military, but i'm too far away to tell. as i walk over, i notice that one of them is talking to the other. they both glance over at me and walk away. intrigued, i start to follow, but one of them looks at me in a way that i know that they don't want me to follow them. i sigh, and walk over to the fountain. i've been walking all day, and the sun is starting to make my sword hot against my back. i take off the sword, and lay it beside me whilst i sit on the edge of the fountain. i look into the water and see numerous small coins laying on the bottoms of the different levels of the fountain. the water looks so cool and clean, so i dip my hand into the water. just as i thought, the water was cool, despite the searing heat all around me. i take the glove off of my automail hand and dip both hands into the water, then bringing them up too my face. after i wash my face and dampen my shirt and headband to keep myself cool, i realize that i haven't eaten in days, perhaps weeks. i look around groggily for a food vendor, and spotting one, i walk over to them. "hey, mister," i ask him. "what do you have to eat here?" "well, i have some bread, and a bit of meat..." "well, how much do you want for it?" "two gold ought to do the trick, i guess." (and keira don't yell at me if i don't know what the currency is in fma, i still havent gotten to see the show yet >.<) i hand him the money, and he grins at me. "have a nice day, sir." i look back at him and smile. "you too." i walk back over to the fountain with my food, and sit on the edge, wolfing down the meat and bread whilst taking a few drinks from my canteen every once in awhile. after my meal, i start to feel sleepy, so i look around for an inn or someplace else to stay.

i wake up the next morning in the room i rented in an inn last night. groggily, i get up and go eat breakfast, then walk out onto the streets to explore the city. i make sure to bring my sword, guns and bow, just in case. after a few hours of wandering, i decide to ask someone for directions to a place where i can get something to eat. i notice a couple of men in blue uniforms walking by, and walk over to them and ask them. one of the men turns to look at me, not saying a word. he has short black hair, and black eyes as well. they are narrowed while he scrutinises me, so i can't really tell otherwise. his features are sharp, a slightly pointed chin and thin mouth accentuating his face. the other man turns to look at me as well, and i notice that he, too, is wearing a blue uniform. apparently these guys are those military alchemists i've heard about. this one has short blond hair, spiking out a bit in the front, but shorter in the back. a cigarette hangs loosly in his mouth, the end still trailing smoke. the black-haired man points over at a shop, and they both walk off. i look back in their direction, and then, hunger returning once more, i make a mad dash for the shop. (OOC: karma to whomever can figure out who i was describing )

Jealousy walks into the Plaza wearing her military unifrom and runs into Jean Havoc and Roy Mustang. "I thought you were still on medical leave, Butler." Roy said to her. "I am, but I still need to make my appearness, Mustang." She relpied in a hrass tone. "You should be in bed crying your eyes out because of what Kimblee did to you." Jean said to her laughing. She grabs the cigarette out of his mouth before grabbing his lip with her hand. "Now Havoc, if I really wanted to I could put you in a lot of pain right about now by using my lighting alchemy if your going to say that to me again." She saids to him as she let's go of his lip. "You should do that to subordants, Butler." A women's voice said to her as Jean rubs his bottom lip. "Well Miss Hawkeye, if your subordant could keep his mouth close I wouldn't have." She relpied to her. "Havoc, Hawkeye, and Bulter, lock it up. I have a feeling that something is going to go on here today." Roy said to all three of them. "Well it's not my place to care today since I'm on medical leave. Later." She saids to them as she walks to the dinner were Zechariah is at. She spots him and notices something different about him. "I'll buy his food along with my food." She said to the waiter as she sets infront of Zechariah. "Hi, I'm Lt. Alexis Butler. Who are you if I may ask?" She asked him.
(The money is what we use everyday. It isn't golds or something like that. Just Dollar bills and Stuff.
Oh, and you were talking about Roy Mustang and Jean Havoc.)

Keira walks into the Plaza and notice Roy. "Mustang, why aren't you in your office doing your paper work?" Her voice commanded him to answer. "Ma'am, I've been out here because I have a feeling something is going on." Roy answer not realizing who it was as Riza Hawkeye and Jean Havoc stands ready for commands. "Dumbass. Do you even realize who you are talking to." She replied in a giggling voice. "KEIRA! Why are you ordering me around like that and why did you call me dumbass?" Roy said surprize to see her. "I'm now Lt. Gen. Alchemist now. I'm one step under my father now. Soon I plan on being his boss. You shouldn't be surprize that I called you that. I've called you that since High School when you got an F on an easy pop quiz." She replied laughing at him as Jean walks over to Keira. "When are we goig to go on a date, Keira." Jan asked her. "When pigs fly, Havoc. I'm not getting into any relationships with anyone." She replied to him. "It's because of what happened to the one you loved while you werein Ishbal. I know that's true, so don't hide it." Riza said to her has Jean has rivers running out of his eyes. "I'm not answering that, Hawkeye. You need to keep rumors from flying, so don't start any." She replied commanding Riza as Jean is still crying. "Havoc, stop being a baby. There are better women out there for you then me. Oh, has anyone seen Lt. Butler?" She asked. Jean points at the dinner. "Lt. Butler is Hughes problem." Roy said to her. "She's my problem now as well. Hughes servse under me, so that makes his subordants my problem." She said as she walks off into the dinner as Roy and Riza head back to his office and Jean tands there crying still at what Keira said. "Lt. Butler." She said to Jealousy as she sat with her and Zechariah. "After your meal with this child I need you to come to my office to answer some questions about what happened to you in the prison the day Greed and Kimblee broke out." She saids as she looks at Zechariah. "What is your name and state your business for being here in Central, young man." She commanded him.

(It actually took me awhile to find out who the first one was, but when I notice you also had Jean it became easy. lol.)
She smiles at the boy. "Nice name, Zack. I always come here to eat dinner at this time of day." She said as she looks over at Roy, Jean, and Riza and notices Keira walking this way. "Yes a do. The guy with black hair and eyes is Coronal Roy Mustang, the guy with blonde hair and smokes a lot is 2nd Lt. Jean Havoc, the girl with blonde hair is 1st Lt. Riza Hawkeye, and the gal walking to us is Lt. Gen. Keira Alchemist. She was Roys rank during the Ishbal war, but after we got her back from them they moved her to the rank under her father since she was kidnap by them. Not alot of us think she was. I think she ran off after a fight with someone and her being badly hurt ran into the Ishbalians and married one that is now that because of Kimblee. My suggestion to you is to not bring up her pass." she said to him as she notice Keira taking a seat. "Alright. I'll come in only if I can leave out of your office by 20:30. I have somewhere to be at 21:00." She said making sound like she had a date.

"Alright then, Alexis. It's nice to meet you Mr. Stone. Sorry if I seem alittle mean, but we've been having some stuff going on around here, so I was just asking. Do you plan on taking the State Alchemist Exam while you are here?" She asked him looking at the two.

(@keira: tis okie ) "Hmm? oh, sure, i guess. what's it about? Oh, and do you know anywhere i could train? i haven't had a chance to spar in ages, and i'm starting to forget some stuff." i pull my sword from its sheath and look at it in the light, the reddish tint of the alchemical steel shining in my eyes. i feel its presence inmy mind, a certain connection that comes up every time i draw the sword. i almost feel like i can communicate with the weapon, but every time i try, it seems only to radiate bloodlust and destruction in return. this sword is something else, i think to myself. i put the blade back in its sheath, and look back at Havoc standing in a corner by himself, obviously sobbing from getting dumped yet again.

Laughs at seeing Havoc face. "I'm guessing he asked you out again. Keira, you've got to get back in the dating seen and Jean is perfect for you." She said as Jean and at her and nods in agreement. "If your actually needing to go out with someon that is." She saids as Jean goes back to sobbing at what she had said. She looks at Zack holding the blade. "You can always train on the training ground at HQ. Just watch out for Armstrong. He'll have you train his way to make you stronger, but I guess it does come and handy." She saids remembering the time she was working out and Armstrong started to train her. "I didn't want to remember that." She said as she sinks into er chair.

She glares at Jealousy and then looks at Zack. "You can spar with Lt. Butler here on the training ground at HQ." She said laughing to herself. "The training will begin tomorrow at 09:00. I know you don't mind Alexis since you seem to have so much free time to date now that your on medical leave. Meet me in my office in one hour, Alexis, or you can forget about your dinner date with whoever." She said as she got up and walked out the door, but stops and looks at Jean. "Stop sobbing like a baby and act like a man for goodness sacks. Your a military man. Not a child." She said to him as she walks out the door. He then follows still sobbing.

"Oh, okay, i'll go there a bit later." i look around a bit, and then the waiter comes up to me and places a gigantic steak in front of me. "...after this light snack. you kids have fun. " about five minutes later, the steak has mysteriously disappeared, and i sit in my chair wiping my mouth. i look up to notice pretty much everyone in the plaza staring at me. "...what? i said it was just a snack..."

Glares at Keira. "I'll get you for sticking me with a kid." She yells at Keira. She looks at Zack surprize and then notices her salad. "I thought I was hungry." She said smiling. She hands the waiter the money and looks around. "If you need a place to stay there's this bar call the Devil's Nest that has rooms for people that are traveling through Central. I work there when I'm not doing anything for the military. I guess I'll see you at 09:00 tomorrow morning infront of HQ, so that I can show you to the training grounds and spar with you. "She said as she grabs her salad in the to go box. "Oh, and tell the guy there that I sent you there. He'll give you a discount." She said as she walks out of the door and head to HQ.
(Go to Greed and his pawns to to start there.)

(can do ) i look back at the waiter. "you know, i think i could use another quick snack..." the waiter's eyes bug out, and the cook in back starts to scream. i grin at the waiter. "just kidding. see you guys later..." the cook only screams louder at this, and the waiter looks as if he just died.
