Me, Shame Me, Heal Me

Episode
1�Enemy, Mine

Looking up at Central�s Military
headquarters, Winry Rockbell, wearing a pink sundress, her long blonde hair
hung loose against her back, glanced again at her letter. Two weeks ago,
she had written to anyone who might have any information for her about Edward
and Alphonse Elric. She didn�t know who would answer her as she didn�t
specifically write to a particular member of the military. Imagine her
relief when her letter actually came back answered.   It had been
answered by a Lieutenant Colonel Maes Hughes.
She had met him a few times before in the past, remembering he was always
showing his daughter�s picture to anyone who would even look in his
direction. Winry had been looking forward to seeing him again, besides
his daughter was simply adorable!

She pulled the door open, stepping
inside. There were soldiers walking about, talking and working on various
projects. Winry glanced around and was about to call out to one of the
military personnel, when she was approached by the very man she had been coming
to see. He leaned forward a little with a smile on his face.

�How nice it is to see you again,
Winry. How was your move? I hope everything is going well with your
new place.�

�Yes.� Winry smiled, �Except for a
small defect my building has, but it�s nothing a good mechanic like me can�t
repair when necessary.�

�Doesn�t your grandmother have an
objection to you moving out on your own, you are only fifteen.�

Winry laughed, �Well she wants to
me spread my wings, I guess. She�s very supportive and knows how much I
miss and care about the Elric brothers.�

Hughes laughed lightly with a smile,
�I think anyone looking at you could see that.� He gestured towards the
left. �How about we go try and figure out what you came all this way
for.� He and Winry started walking down the hall, when he reached into
his uniform coat pocket on the inside and started to pull out a certain
picture. �Look at her, isn�t she just the cutest thing?!� He gushed,
shoving the photo in Winry�s face.

Winry softly giggled and nodded,
�Yes she is, and you�ve already shown me this picture, several times as a
matter of fact.�

�Did I?� Hughes rubbed the back of
his head, �I show so many people I forget who I�ve actually shown it to.�
He gently put the photo back in his uniform coat, and taking Winry to a closed
door, stopping right before it.

�What room is this?� Winry asked
pleasantly and with a smile.

Hughes cleared his throat and
avoided her eyes. He stared at the wood and lifted his hand, knocking on
it. �Oi, Roy�� He didn�t get to finish his call
to the door for Winry scoffed loudly, interrupting him.

�Is this a certain Colonel Roy
Mustang you are talking to here?� Winry said tapping her foot against the floor
and tightly folding her arms over her breasts in extreme discomfort. When
she didn�t get an answer she snorted bitterly and turned to go. �Forget
it, I don�t want his help.� Winry took one step when she felt Hughes�s
hand on her arm.

�Look, Winry, I know how hard this
is going to be, for the both of you and I�m not asking you to stick around and
be his best buddy and chat like he was a long lost pal or anything. If
you want information on both Edward and Alphonse, Colonel Roy Mustang is the
way to go. He is the one Edward sends reports in to. I�m sure with
a little effort and time, the Colonel can help you.� He saw her lips
twist up in distaste, and her nose crinkle in complete revulsion, her eyes
burned with controlled rage. �Think of Edward and Alphonse, wouldn�t you
do just about anything to find out where they are?�

Shutting her eyes tightly, Winry
clenched her fists tightly at her sides. �All right!
Fine!    For Ed and Al, I�ll be civil for them.� She would
try her hardest to get along with him. Winry would just have to play nice
with that bastard Roy Mustang until she found out where Ed was�and then go
after him. She was tired of being without Edward, she missed him.
Her cheeks heated, �oh my, did I really just think that, do I really miss Ed
that much?� She heard Hughes chuckle and it brought her back to her
senses.

Hughes turned towards the door and
knocked again, then opening it. Seeing his friend and superior, Roy Mustang,
bent over his desk and frantically working on paper work. Rolling his
eyes, Hughes couldn�t help the smile that curved against the corners of his
mouth. That man was always waiting until the last minute to do any paper
work. �Oi, Roy, sorry to bother you, but Winry
Rockbell is here.� He saw the raven head of his friend snap up, and his
dark brow furrow. �I told you this morning that she was coming to see me
and that I figured you would be able to help her in finding out where Edward
Elric was.�

Roy
merely stared back at Hughes, �I don�t have time for that now.� He leaned
over his papers again his pen scribbling furiously against the paper.

�Come on, just five minutes.
It�s not too much to ask for, is it?� Hughes said with his right brow arched.

Winry tapped Hughes on the
shoulder, and he looked in her direction where she said, �Look if he can�t help
me, that�s great. I�d rather eat poison
toadstools than ask him for help. He probably couldn�t do it
anyway. I�m better off just walking blindly without any direction.
I�m sure I�ll eventually run across Ed and Al.�

From inside the room, both Hughes
and Winry heard Roy say in
irritation, �Five minutes.�

Winry groaned and Hughes smiled,
gently escorting her inside the room.

Folding his hands on his desk, Roy
looked up at the two who disturbed his extremely important paper work and he
was running out of time to get it all done. �Five minutes began the
moment you two stepped in here, now then what can I help you with?�

�Nothing.�
Winry said tightly and looked away from him in irritation.

Hughes grinned and patted Winry on
the shoulder softly, �Edward and Alphonse Elric, she wants to know where they
are.�

�Well that makes two of us, I
haven�t a clue.� Roy said staring
at them. �I hadn�t received a report from Fullmetal in quite
awhile. So I�m afraid you came all this way for nothing.�

�I�ll say.� Winry grunted.
�A lot of help he is.� She complained quietly.

�Chances are� those two will be
back here eventually. You might as well stick around Central City for
awhile. You�ll eventually come across them.� Roy
said, standing. �If I hear anything, perhaps I�ll let you know. Of
course I am extremely busy so don�t hold your breath.� He said, coldly.
Finding that he couldn�t look at her for long without feeling the tiny prickles
of guilt crawling up his neck, he looked towards Maes instead.

She felt ill standing in front of
this man, Winry hated him with every ounce of her heart and soul. He was
the very man who killed her parents and then took Ed and Al away from her and
leaving her all alone again. What right does he have
to stand there looking fine and dandy like nothing is bothering him?
Doesn�t he feel anything at all? This man might be Ed�s ally but he was
her enemy and she will continue on hating him until the day she died.

�Five minutes is up, I have a lot
of work to do. So if you two don�t mind�� Roy
gestured to the door with his palm faced upward.

Winry spun around and Hughes
sighed, shaking his head walking with her towards the door.

�See, I told you he wouldn�t be of
any help at all.� Winry commented as the two of them left the room, closing the
door.

�If any news comes in about the boys,
I�ll make sure you get the information.� Hughes said with a disappointed
smile. He was sure that Roy
would have been her best help in this regard. But it seemed Roy
was just as clueless as poor Winry here was.

She knew it probably wouldn�t be
an easy thing, finding out where Ed and Al were. Winry had even
anticipated that she would be here in the city for awhile. �Thanks
anyway, you know where to find me if you do hear anything.� Feeling a
little dejected but not completely at a loss, Winry left through the main
doors, stepping out into the warm sunshine. Shading her eyes with her
hand from the sun, she glanced up at the wispy white clouds breezing by. �I
know I�ll see you two again, I just need to have a little patience. What
a surprise it will be for you guys to see me here in Central when you do get
back, I can�t wait to see the looks on your faces. Well, on Ed�s face at
least�� She smiled to herself.

She took one step and smacked into
someone who was also walking on the sidewalk, a folder of papers dropped from
the individual�s hand and hit the ground, the papers scattering
everywhere. Winry gasped in shock, �Oh, I am so sorry.� She glanced down
at a bent chestnut head, and bronze hands were trying to gather the papers
up. Winry squatted down and proceeded to assist. It was a young man
and he lifted his head smiling a little.

�It�s all right, just a little
mess here.� His breath caught and his cheeks heated. He noticed her
long golden hair glistening in the sun, her pretty pale complexion and amazing
azure eyes. He quickly glanced down and really concentrated on collecting
his papers. �I really should watch where I�m going. This is my
first time to a big city like this.�

�I�ve only been living here two
weeks myself. But friends of mine are in the military so I�ve visited
Central City before many times.� Winry had a pile in her hand already and
reached for another sheet. Turning it over she found it had music notes
and bars on it. �Oh.�

The young man looked up at her
again, �I play the piano. I�m part of a small musical group, with my twin
sister Aurora, she sings mostly. I mean I do too, but singing is all she
does. Also a few cousins of mine play other instruments and sing too.

�That�s amazing, I can�t play or
sing.� Winry stood up as did the young man. �I build automail though.�

He blinked, �Seriously? A young
woman like you knows how to build complex machinery like that?� He was
very impressed.

�Yeah, it�s a family
business. My grandmother taught me. I guess healing runs in the
family. My parents, they were doctors.� She sighed and moved a lock of
her hair behind her ear. �So what�s your name?� She noted that he
was tall, much taller than her, about a whole head taller. He had deep
emerald green eyes.   Winry couldn�t help but find him
attractive. What girl wouldn�t? She immediately thought about Ed
and blinked, trying to regain her senses.

�It�s Travin Walker.�

She smiled, �I�m Winry
Rockbell. So what made a small towner like you
move out here?�

Travin rubbed the back of his
head, �I got our family band a performance job for the next year. What
about you?�

Winry sighed, �I came here looking
for a friend and his brother, and I�ll probably stick around until he comes
back, which could be months. Those two are always wandering about.�

�Oh.� Travin sounded a little
disappointed, �Is he you know, you�re uh�boyfriend?�

Her face heated at least three
shades, �What! Ed is, well he�s�� Edward Elric? her
boyfriend? He would never think of her like that. They had been friends
since they were children.

Travin waved his hand in the air,
�Never mind, it�s none of my business.� Well this young lady was
certainly awaiting this boy, would it be wrong to be her friend? �You
know, I�m playing tonight, would you like to come and listen? We�re
pretty good. You can bring a friend along.� Hopefully, it would be
a girlfriend and not a boy.

�That sounds like fun.� Winry
smiled a brilliant smile of pearl white teeth. As Travin was explaining
where he was performing with his family, to Winry it seemed like she had just
made a new friend, which was good to have in a big city like this.

****

Winry stood before the lovely new restaurant and bar called Antonio�s, as
her friend and also military personelle-slash-libraian, Scieszka, walked up
beside her.

�You know, Winry, you could have contacted me two weeks ago when you first
arrived, I would have helped you settle in.� Scieszka adjusted her
glasses against her nose and then looked over at her friend.

�I know. I just didn�t want to burden you.� Winry replied with a
sheepish smile.

Scieszka looped her arm around Winry�s, �At least you�re here now.
This�ll be so exciting. You living here in Central City, I bet a whole bunch
of amazing things will happen for you now. Come on, let�s go in.� And she
dragged her friend through the doors.

Antonio�s was bistro style restaurant, with dark red carpets and rich
cherry wood chairs and tables. The bar was to the left, with a long
rectangular mirror behind it. There were several men and women gathered
around it.� Also in the bar area were
tables and booths, which were shadowed by dim light and filled with patrons.

Winry could see the piano upon a small stage that was next to the bar.� On the other side of the room an archway led
to the restaurant area.

�Let�s go sit over there.� Scieszka suggested pointing to two barstools on
the edge of the bar.

Nodding, Winry grinned. �Yeah, we�ll be able to see the stage pretty well.�

The tables within the bar area were half filled with military personelle
relaxing from a tiring day at work.� This
new place seemed to attract even them, and Colonel Roy Mustang was no exception,
the only difference was�he was currently on a date with a woman who was also an
heiress to some grand fortune.�
Connections with this woman and her family would definitely be on his
high priorty list and it didn�t hurt that the woman was lovely.� Roy looked up at the barmaid who was taking
orders for food and drinks.� He was about
to order something when he spotted one of the military�s librarians, Scieszka
coming in and dragging the Rockbell girl behind her.

He silently watched the young blonde for a moment, she appeared to be in
pretty good spirits even as she came up short when it came to finding out where
Fullmetal was.� She smiled, and Roy
wondered if it took a lot for her to really smile as it did for him.� Most of his smiles were just for show, even
though he told Fullmetal that one must put aside their emotions�what he had
done still effected him to some extent.�
He couldn�t help but feel a stab of guilt as he watched the Rockbell
girl standing with Scieszka and smiling like that, like all was right in the
world and he didn�t take her parents lives, plus thousands of others.�

Taking a deep breath, Roy decided to stop dwelling on this guilt right now,
there was nothing he could do about the past.�
He looked over at his date for the evening and leaned towards her.� �Is there anything you would like to try,
Keira?�

Keira smiled prettily, �It all sounds so good, I couldn�t possibly
choose.� Why don�t you order for me.�

Roy gently rested his hand on her shoulder and pulled her in closer while
looking up at the barmaid... �

�Winry, didn�t you say you met this guy just today when you stopped over at
my place?� Scieszka sat down and Winry sat next to her and nodded.� �Then why does he seem to act so familiar
around you?� It�s a little odd to me.�

Winry shrugged, �Well we sorta bumped into each other. It�s always
good to make new friends and friends should be comfortable around each other.
It�ll give me something to do while I wait around for Ed and Al. Well
that is in my spare time when I�m not making automail.� Winry crossed her legs,
right over left.

The muscians stepped out onto the small stage and Winry waved to Travin who
gave her a friendly nod and a wink. He turned to his sister and cousins
who all took their places. Travin walked to the bartender and spoke
quietly in his ear, before giving him a pat on the back. He quickly
headed back to the stage and took his seat at the piano where he began playing
a lively tune. His sister immediately began singing, her voice deep and
sultry that would drive most men crazy.

Aurora was very beautiful, long chocolate locks in ringlet curls cascaded
down her back with a fluff of bangs over her forehead, her eyes the color of
emeralds, just like her brother�s. Her skin was a lovely shade of bronze
as well. She certainly kept the male population of Antonio�s on her.

The bartender carried a tall glass of something red over to Winry and
placed it in front of her. �Compliments of Mr. Travin Walker, and he said
whatever you want tonight, it�s on him.�

Winry stared surprized down at the red liquid in the glass, she lifted it
and held it to her nose. It smelled like cranberry juice and she took a small
sip. It was a little tangy with a hint of something she couldn�t exactly
place. It was good though, and she took another little bit larger drink.

�Oooh.� Scieszka nudged Winry with her elbow, �My, my, a cute guy like that
buying you drinks. I wonder what Ed would say.� She teased.

Choking a bit on her juice after she got it down, Winry coughed a little,
�What? What did you just say? Ed would� he�s�� Her face heated. �I mean
what would it matter what he would say, who cares.� That was a lie, maybe
she cared what he would think and say. He would probably say to watch out
for perverts, they come in all shapes and sizes, cute and ugly. And that they
all wanted one thing. But she was tough girl and could take care of
herself. Besides, Travin looked around her age, he couldn�t be that much
older than her. He didn�t seem like the type that would even be a
pervert.

�Riiight��Scieszka replied with a smirk, and lifted her finger up to get
the bartender�s attention.

Winry downed the rest of the drink, feeling slightly warm in her
belly. She licked her lips and looked in the cup. �I think I want
another one of those. It was good juice!�

�You better be careful, Winry. That drink could have alcohol in it.�
Scieszka warned.

�What? No. It doesn�t taste like it has anything like that in
it. Besides, I don�t much care for the taste of alcohol. This is
far too sweet and good.� Winry waited for the bartender to come over and
requested another drink and Scieszka ordered something light for herself.

Five cranberry drinks later, Winry felt�very, very good. �Whoa, tha�s
sum goo pano paying.� She said leaning on her hand which was propped up
by her elbow on the bar.

Scieszka groaned, �I knew it.� She sighed and pinched her sinuses beneath
the bridge of her glasses. Two people had come up behind her and she
turned her head, smiling at the familiar faces of Kain Fuery and Jean
Havoc. �Oi, guys.� She said with a smile.

Havoc nodded, �Oi, yourself.� He said with a grin. �Are you two ladies
enjoying the new place here? It�s only a week old.�

Winry heard something, a voice kind of near to her who sounded familiar and
she turned her head and pointed, �I knows yous.�

Blinking, Havoc cleared his throat. �I should hope so.� He noticed her really
flushed face and her half lidded eyes, she looked a little off. �Winry,
are you okay?�

Limply pointing at herself with her thumb, Winry swayed a little on her
stool. �I�s real good. Feely tingly between da legs, must potty now.�

Fuery spit out his drink in a spray of liquid, his face burning bright red,
and Havoc�s mouth just dropped open in absolute shock. And they both said
at the exact same time� �She�s completely smashed!�

Scieszka jumped up from her stool, �I should take Winry to the
bathroom.� Don�t let anyone take our
seats, all right?� She assisted her friend off her stool and tried to
walk her to the bathroom, but Winry kept tripping over her feet while swaying
back and forth.

�Where bafroo?� Winry said tilting her head and staring at Scieszka.

With her face heating to a very embarassed red hue, Scieszka pointed to the
arrow that displayed the way. �That way. Winry can you try and keep
it down? You�re a little loud.�

�I am?!� Winry answered loudly.

�Yes.� She grinned sheepishly and apologised to everyone she saw.

Winry tripped over her feet and this time her friend wasn�t able to hold
her up and she fell onto her knees. She couldn�t help but giggle as she
sat there, her head fell back and she stared up at the ceiling.
�Oops.� She reached up and grabbed the edge of a table to help pull
herself to her feet. �Sorry, I clumsy taday.� She said to the couple she
had disturbed. Looking over, she narrowed her eyes trying to focus on who
it was, he seemed familiar but the woman didn�t. �Hmm, I knows
you.� She heard the man snort. His extremely attractive face was
really familiar and so was his raven hair� Wait! It was the murderer of
her parents. �You makes me sick. I hates yur stoopid guttss.� She
pulled herself up completely off the floor, leaning on the table and glaring at
him. �If I dinna have a pee, I�d makes ya surry yous ever was borned.�
She pointed limply at him.

Roy Mustang, who was currently on a date, which was interrupted by this
loud, drunk Winry Rockbell actually found this situtaion quite humorous, and
placed his fingers against his mouth hiding his smirk. Her words were
unattractive, but he wasn�t going to let them bother him tonight. �I
think you�re going to regret what you�ve said come morning, when you�re sober.�
He said, leaning back against his booth and crossing his legs, his ankle
resting against his other knee.

Scieszka took Winry by the arm and gave her superior a very apologetic
smile, �I am very sorry, sir.�

Roy looked away from the two of them and back at his date, a pretty red
head with bright blue eyes, an attractive slim figure and petite breasts.
She was quite lovely company.

Winry was being dragged away and towards the bathroom before she could say
anything else that she might be embarassed over the next day. The
bathroom door was pushed open and Scieszka helped her friend inside.

�Winry, you shouldn�t have said those things to Colonel Mustang.� He has feelings too you know.�

�Coulda fool me.� Winry said going into the stall. �He kills my
parents, he dunna deserve ta be happy.�

Scieszka sighed and leaned against the sink counter, �I understand your
pain. But did you have to voice your opinion so loudly? I�m sure he
knows you hate him, but the whole world does now as well. There are some
things you can keep to yourself.�

�The whole world shud knows, he�s murderer.� Winry sniffled and grabbed
some toilet paper and wiped at her eyes. �I canna even stan to look at
�im. It breaks me hearts every time I sees he face.�

Scieszka leaned her head back a little, �He does have a really good face
though.� She smiled thinking about it. �Even you must agree with that.�

�A pretty face, doesn�t make up for good hearts.� Winry soon came out
of the bathroom stall. �Dat man�s enemy mine.�

Reaching for her to help assist her again, Scieszka arched a brow.
�Don�t you mean �my enemy�?�

Winry shrugged. �Whys do I feel so strange?�

�Because, my dear friend, you are drunk off your ass.� Scieszka laughed
loudly and Winry just stared blankley.

When the girls got back from the bathroom and to their seats, along with
Havoc and Fuery, Travin was waiting there too, who turned around.

�Ah, there you are.� Travin said with a kind smile to his new friend
Winry. �I wondered where you had run off to.�

�Potty, needed to use.� Winry swayed and Scieszka gripped her tighter.

Travin stepped closer to Winry, �Are you feeling all right?�

�No, she�s drunk you idiot.� Havoc replied. �How did she even get
like that?�

Feeling a little guilty, Travin lifted his finger. �That was probably
my doing. I told the bartender to give her something really special
tonight.�

�She�s only fifteen.� Why would you
think about giving a young girl like this a booze filled drink?� Havoc narrowed
his eyes at Travin who held his palms up innocently.

�I didn�t know! Honest!� Travin looked to Winry, �I am so sorry, If I would
have known...�

�Save it.� Fuery said very uncharacteristically angry. �Just how old
are you, to think you can just go around ordering women heavy drinks?�

�I just turned twenty a month ago.� Travin replied, �I honestly didn�t know
she was fifteen. That was not the topic of conversation when we had
met. If I would have known that, I would have had the bartender get her
something different. You�ve got to believe me.�

Havoc, bitterly looked the young musician up and down, �We don�t even know
you. How can we believe you�re trustworthy?�

�Yeah,� Fuery added, �You�re darn lucky that her boyfriend, Edward Elric
The Fullmetal Alchemist isn�t here to see this. If he was, no doubt he
would transmutate his arm into a hammer and smash your head open for this.�

Travin stared at the floor in shock, �Wait.�
Is her friend this short blonde teenager that travels with a giant suit
of armor?�

�That�s right.� Scieszka replied proudly.

Crossing his arms over his chest, Travin rocked back on his heels. �I
met those two. My family and I� we gave them a ride once.�

Winry seemed to perk up, and she jumped forward. �You know Ed! Wheres
did yous take �im?! And where hes now? Please tell me!� She
was in panic.

Travin shrugged, �Oh, it was a few months ago.� I don�t have any idea where he is now or if
even stayed in that town.�

Hanging her head and sighing deeply, Winry felt her heart shatter. �A
dead end again.� I�ll nevers find Ed at
dis rates. You don�t knows how bads I need ta find him. I jus have
ta.� She felt her eyes swell with tears. What was the matter with her,
why was she acting so loopy and emotional right now?

�Oh, I�m sorry. I didn�t mean to upset you.� Travin lightly rested
his hand on her shoulder. �I can send letters out to other members of my
family that live in other cities and towns, maybe they can help in your
search.�

�Really?� Winry clasped her hands together, �You�d do that?�

Smiling, Travin squeezed her shoulder affectionatly. �Yes, really. I
have a pretty large family to hear from. I�m sure something will
arise. So cheer up.�

Havoc looked over at Fuery who were both wondering what this young man was
up to. He seemed much too helpful and way too nice. If it was one
thing they knew a lot about, it was womanizing men. After all, their
superior was one of them. Colonel Roy Mustang was a different kind of
womanizer, he was one where it was no secret and he never lied or decieved
anyone or even tried to hide is real intentions. But this guy�this Travin
seemed very sneaky.

�How about� to make up for my terrible mistake, why don�t I walk you home,
Winry?� Travin offered with a bright smile that seemed to sparkle.

�Ah hah!� Both Fuery
and Havoc thought at the exact same time. Figuring out what this person
was going to try! There was no way they were going to let this strange
man take Winry home, not when she was like this where anyone could take
advantage of her.

�I�ll take her home.� A different and much more authoritive, rich like dark
silk, voice said from behind them.

=====

Well that�s it for this episode. How did it go?
No one was terribly OOC were they?

Thanks for reading
