"A-a what?" Ed demanded, staring at the woman in horror. "Let him go! And while you're at it, let me go!" Ed struggled to get up for a moment before giving up to yell, "What the hell is going on?"

"I need you to help me make a successful, talking Chimera... I have read that it is possible... and with your help, this little pup will be talking to us in no time at all." She said, "Besides, I've heard that State Alchemists are the closest to Miracle Workers that you can get."
((Going to bed.)) |

Ed stopped cold, shaken to his core by the woman's casual words.
Big Brother... He gulped and stared up into the woman's face. "Y-you don't mean that. Talk-talking chimeras... You don't mean that." He hunched into himself and whispered, "There's no reason for such a creature to exist." |
|
|
"Indeed I do." THe woman said, "AFter all, it won't be just an average talking chimera... No... Tucker was a fool. He did it for selfish reasons... I'm doing it for a much greater, wiser reason..."
Her blue eyes stared off dreamily as she looked past Ed into an unseen abyss where her dream seemed to stand. |

Ed stopped his desperate glance towards the door in order to stare incredulously at the woman. He scoffed, "And what reason could possibly justify creating a creature like that?"
|
|
|
"I want a son of my very own." She said simply, her eyes gleaming with determination.
|
|
|

"W-what?" Ed gaped, unable to comprehend what the woman had just said. "Y-you want to...make a person? I real person?" Ed shook his head, eyes wide and incredulous, "Then why don't you just adopt a child, you nutcase?!"
|
|
|
"If I adopted a child... it would never be a part of me." The woman answered, "But using my own ovum as a base and these dogs, I believe that I could have the perfect son."

Ed could only stare at the woman in horror. The worst part of all of this was...he could see where what she said made sense.
Not what she was trying to do or why, that was lunacy. But the theoretical bases for what she was suggesting... Using human germ cells in combination with the life already imbued in a genetically similar animal, especially multiple subjects... Yes. Yes, Ed could see the circles half-formed in his mind already. It could work. And that was the most horrifying thing of all. (Hey, we really need to mention somewhere up there that she's barren.) |

Her eyes widened in an almost panic stricken countenance as she replayed her delusional memories in her mind.
"Yes... I was always unable to have children... and after Travis left me, I didn't know what to do... He always wanted children... a son to call his own... to follow in his footsteps... to carry on his legacy... Oh, how he blamed me that night... Hit me, even! I couldn't bear with losing him... but the fact that I was unable to have a child... that was the worst of all... but now... if I have my own little boy... he'll love me.. I'll have my own baby..." she ranted to the shadows on the far wall. "My own little baby boy..." She took Black Hayate and cuddled him against her chest... coddling him like a baby. "Don't worry, darling... Mommy will protect you.. Mommy will always be there for you." ~~~ Roy ushed the kids out of his car once they were at the office. "Okay. I'll go talk to Hawkeye... you guys... just... go do stuff." he said, running into the office. Silently, he was concerned. Kidnapping of a State Alchemist was never a good thing... but why did it have to be Full Metal...? Why? |
