Lia simply threw hre State Alchemist's pocket watch on the ground. She wore it as a necklace so that she'd always have it one her. And being an alchemist could thus give her permission to ask information from Ed. legally, of crouse.
"Lia Belrith, State Alchemist, known as Desert Alchemist. And now, if you would be as kind as to do so, I'd like to know why my sister is in this coma. Also, after due explaining is given... I have to give you a message from Anna."

Ed, shocked at the new information, took a deep breath. "Well, I have one thing to say...IF WE WANT TO LEAVE, LET US!!!!! Alright, now that that's outta my system, Al, you tell her."
"Why me brother?"
"Cause i said so..."
"Ugh...Well, she's trying to keep us here because of some kinda ambush and Mr. Impatient over there didn't want to stay so he kept trying to leave. He also thinks that it's foolish how your sister risks her life for someone who doesn't even like her." Al stated. During the whole thing, Ed stood there nodding his head with his eyes closed.

"I see... Edward... Personnaly, you're the foolish one. refusing free help given to you by someone selfless and open-minded. You don't find people, man or girl, like that anymore. You should've just stayed... Because of you, she might die... And I'm not saying this just because I'm her sister. I'm looking at this with a critical eye. Also, my sister wasn't the brightest star, doing what she did so late into the situation... I just wish she had told me..."
Lia sighed and turned around to look at her pale-faced sister. For once... Lia though she looked calm, peacful. She didn't have any mark of discomfort, pain, sorrow or sadness. Just peace and serenity.
"As for the message... Alphonse; Anna wanted you to know... That if anyone, it would be for you she'd give up her life. And Edward... That it would be for you that she'd give her soul. Those were the words she gave me. Do of it what you like... But at least pay attention to them. Now, if you don't mind.. I'll just go outside..."
Walking slowly, the older sister walked out of the room, leaving a trail of sand behind her. Lia's clothes being old, worn, torn and desert-made, it had 'absorbed' the sand...
Outside, Lia sat against the closed door and sighed.. Anna... She'd better stay alive...

Ed, the moment she was out of ear-shot, started spazzing. "Why do we end up with crazy baby sitters!?! We had Armstrong then we had Brosh and Ross and now we have the Crazy Sisters!!!"
Al looked at Anna grimly worrying if she owuld actually survive this perdiciment.

'Love.. It'S the only thing keeping me alive, you jerk. Stop worrying and just do something; Anything... As long as you can save me... And not die...'
Anna heard everything. Lia had said it perfectly, what she wanted. She simply relaxed as she heard Ed.
CRAZY?! She'll give him crazy..
Eh, once she can actually speak, that is...
For the moment, the coma she was in was taking the toll. It wasn't showing any signs of lifting...
Lia, on her side, tended to her fingers. Automail fingers... There's a thought. So she entered in the house again and looked through the automail parts; perfect. Fingers, just what she needed.
After a few paintaking minutes, Lia winced and muffled a growl as she attached the nerves... Ouch.
In anycase, afterwards, she was able to move freely. At least...

Ed blew off so much steam as he ranted on about the fact they were stuck in this "hell hole" and that they couldn't leave.
Al sighed and started to drown out his brother's rambling. He looked at Anna once more before he walked back into the other room. "Don't you think you're being too harsh on them Ed?"
"What do you mean Al...Don't you dare tell me you like them!" Ed expression became worrisome.
"Well....I do!" His face blushed.
"Wait...you-you're blushing...Don't you DARE tell me that you..." He glanced at the room Anna was in then smirked at Al. "You like her don't you?"

'WHAT THE HELL?! NO! Wait a... That was Ed... So that means.. AHK! This is too confusing.. Damn, can't anyone wake me up and tell me what's going on?!'
'Anna... Calm down.'
'LIA?!'
'I hope so! I just 'repaired' my fingers...'
'BEcuase you--'
'Sadly, yes. But I'll get them back soon enough, right?'
'Let's hope...'
Lia sighed and took a look at her work. Not what any profesionnal would call good work, but at least it would do the thing for now. I mean, fingers are fingers...
Distantly, she could hear fragments of the conversation between Ed and Al... She smirked at the answers and questions; Anna should be happy when she wakes up...
Meanwhile, Anna was boiling inside that body of hers. Unable to do or say anything, she had to stay content of having to speak with lia, which didn't really help her all that much...
She didn't seem to know anything...
SEEM...

"Brother, no I..." Al's face turned redder with each passing moment.
"Al and Anna sittin in a tree..." Ed started to sing merrily and tried as hard as he could to contain his laughter.
"Ed, stop it! She might hear you!" Al glared icicles at his brother who seemed that he wouldn't stop singing even if the entire military would come to rain on his parade.

Al started to become very frustrated. "Edward, stop it!!"
"Aw, you two make such a cute couple!" Ed held his hands together and made a very cute face.
His anger and embarassment reached its peak so he tackled Ed who skidded across the floor.
"What Al? Not happy to hear someone say it out loud?" He cocked his head slightly and made kissey faces.
Al's face was redder than a cherry at this point.

A deaf 'pok' resonated through the near-empty room as a small pocket knife had furrowed itself in the wall nearest Ed, missing him by inches. Lia was very good when aiming...
"Stop it. If he's your brother, respect him; it's the least you owe him. And... One of you should do something for Anna. Only you two can wake her up; You're the one who caused to coma to start with..."
((Now, I gotta go.. But tonight, I'll post a super pic that represents Anna in her mind, sad and lonely, manipulated by the cruel hand of fate. ^^ Very poetic and beautiful.))

Ed was stunned at her accuracy then looked up at Al. "Go help your girlfriend." He made yet another cute face.
Al blushed and started to walk over to the room. "She's not my girlfriend..."

"Al said he would do it! not me!" Ed barked as he gto up.
"Just do it brother!" Al turned, his eyes were almost in tears.
"Gah, fine but you owe me Alphonse..." He walked over and stood next to his younger brother silently.

"All you need is concentration; A capacity I already know you don't lack. From there... It's only a matter of seconds. But remember: once you're pass the door, reach out both hands. If you feel something tugging at them, pull. Pull like you're life was the thing you were pulling. Actually.. It IS a life; My sister's. In any case..."
Lia coughed once or twice; I think she just realised that she had swalloed a bit too much sand for her own good... Aside that, she just snapped her right fingers as the alchemy circle seemed to hover above the ground and placed themselves below Ed and Al.
"Good luck. I'll see you... Soon."
'JURRY UP ALREDY!'
'Calm down, they're coming.'
'They better...'
