The sun was starting to set, a cool gentle breeze was blowing, the entire town seemed to be winding down for the day. "i'm glad we're back lil brother, i swear i'll never adjust to central" Catherine said slowly moving forward on her crutches "i don't know.. it feels more hostile since the last time we came back" Raphael said slouching a little from receiving stares from the town folks as they passed by "i told you not to wear your uniform" Catherine replied back rolling her eyes "its my job.. not my fault" Raphael mumbled under his breath. He was carrying a small brown box, today would be his parents 20th wedding anniversary and they always would bring a gift for everything just for an excuse to come home. They were moving at a incredibly slow pace which bothered Raphael since they'd go faster if Catherine would finally let him get her a auto-mail leg "why won't you just let me buy you some auto-mail sis?" Raphael groaned "you know why" Catherine replied stubbornly, Raphael decided to just drop the subject

As they reached their parents grave Raphael opened the box bulling out the bust of his fathers head. Catherine watched respectfully as Raphael kneeled down and place it on his fathers grave "Hey... happy anniversary you guys... i became a state alchemist dad" Raphael said with a grin his eyes watering "we've been doing alright, we own a small Inn and i'm still watching over lil Raphy for you guys" Catherine said taking over for Raphael, they both smiled at that ".. i'll find Leo... i'll get him for what he did" Raphael said abruptly, tears rolled down his face "and i can now, i'm a state alchemist." Raphael said standing up, clenching his fists, "lets go back now, i'm sure people will want to catch up" Catherine said starting back on her crutches.
they sat in the pub wher Raphael worked as a kid,"kid why don't you play a song like ya used ta!" a familar face shouted, the old owner was sitting with a smile at the bar,he quickly popped out his violin and started playing a fast paced song with an upbeat tempo

Skye had decided to wander again, leaving her home and heading around. She heard a violin start from one pub and decided to answer. It seemed like a nice place and smelled lovely when she entered. She looked up to see a six plus foot tall male playing the violin. She had never been a classic girl but his music played well and settled in the heart. It brought a smile to her face, it was nice to see good artists after so many years in the woods.
Her red brown hair was left down falling at her mid back in a slightly wavy cascade. Her red brown eyes scanned her surrounding noting different things. She was wearing a overly large beige sweater, it seemed to dwarf her. The sweater fell to her mid thigh and the sleeves where cut so not to drag in stuff. She had a pair of tight jeans on and combat boots. Around her hip was her kit, six vials and a pouch that had her money and herb rounds. The kit was covered by the sweater.
She took another deep breath with a small smile. She took a seat and ordered some food. She could eat out everyone in a while, nice food and good music was worth it. Happy times where so few making memories that lasted long was a mission in and of itself. She stretched her arm up slightly trying to crack her back. Her muscles had been aching lately and although she had a round to help it appeared she was becoming immune to them again. She sighed slightly looking up at the person playing the music.
Such beautiful music but it sounded sad, as if played by a wounded heart. She recognized the boy now, he was a state alchemist. He had the title she longed for, she planned to take the test when the next round came around so it wouldn't be too long. If she remembered correctly he was only seventeen too, not much younger then her brother. She wondered for a moment how her family was doing.
((you should not of needed two^.^)

(ooc: i had made the topic on a ps3 browser which has a limit on the number of characters i can use ^^'... my computer was freaking out)
Raphael finished his song and quickly sat down "Your good kid, well i must be off.. tell me when you come back again" the old owner said with a smile before hobbling off "he's a nice old man" Raphael said after his former employer left while he put away his violin "here's your drink Raphy" the waiter said setting down a drink from a large platter in the other hand "oh lemme help" Raphael said grabbing the platter "wait no i got it!" the waiter said franticly, everyone here knew he was a klutz but it was to late Raphael had scooped up the platter "relax, i got this" Raphael said with a smile then tripped over a chair, did a complete 360 degree spin and fell back onto a table breaking it and sending the drinks landing on the patron sitting at the table. "... saved this one!" Raphael said holding up a empty glass weakly, the entire pub erupted in laughter at the display that had happened so many times "I'm so sorry miss!" Raphael exclaimed bolting up "complete accident.. i didn't mean to do it!" He pleaded -oh god not in the face.. odd time to be thinking about this but she's kinda short..- Raphael thought bracing himself for the hit that seemed to follow after everything he did

Skye had just turned away to look elsewhere when she heard a commotion, she turned to see stuff flying at her and someone catching a glass. Now a normal person would either a get angry or b beat the shit out of the guy. Or at least that was what Skye though. She heard him speak but was laughing too hard to speak back. It was funny to her, after all this time alone watching someone spill and trip and stuff was hilarious. She calmed herself down after a while, using her sleeve to get rid of some of the tears from her eyes.
"Its ok, I havnt laughed that much in a long time," she said with a smile. "its nice to make new stain memories," she continued. Although she was a little wet, but she could deal with it. She smiled and stood, her sweater was soaked but not through. She pulled it off, underneath was a dark red t-shirt. She rolled the sweater off and wiped off her jeans slightly. She pulled something out of her hair and then pulled it into a long braid. "Its perfectly fine see, no problem Im not afraid of some stains," she said with another smile.

Raphael lowered his arms "thanks, I'm Raphael Linewood" Raphael said with a smile "thats my older sister Catherine" Raphael said pointing at his sister who kindly waved back. Raphael handed the waiter some money to replace the drinks "so what brings you to this place?" Raphael asked

Skye smiled. "Pleasure Rapheael. Mind if I call you Raph, my name is Skye Fox, pleasure Im sure," she said nodding at his sister in a way to recognize she had waved. For a mere moment Skye wondered how her sister was doing, or anyone else in her family. It had been years since they had disappeared but surely they where ok. "Ahh just wondering around, sounded like great music, smelled like great food, felt like a great place," she said with a grin. She ran her hand on the right side of her hip and unattached her kit.
She put her kit on the table and started to take it apart, making sure that the leather was dry and that the tubes where cleaned. "I wander allot to learn," she said. She put the vials back in their spots and swung the kit back on her waist. She pushed the vials down one more time to be sure and looked back at him. "Thank you for the laughs, happy times are rare to few nowadays it seems," she said truthfully.

-a alchemist- Raphael thought glancing at the vials, he'd always been wary of other alchemists because everyone of them always have a goal often a dark one like himself. -time to tred lightly, i'm dealing with someone who might be potentially dangerous- Raphael thought behind the friendly face he was wearing "so your a alchemist" Raphael said nodding towards her kit "i agree, happy times are rare indeed but that most don't have time for them anyways" Raphael added with a quick grin, he definitely didn't even this detour back here took time away from his search. "so you wander alot? sounds rather tiring for just knowledge"

Skye smiled at him when he asked if she was an alchemist. "Yep, its a fun thing to learn I like to expand my knowledge," she said with a grin. Of course she felt like there was something behind his words. "Knowledge is power, and I want to get as strong as I can before I take the test," she said with another grin. She knew that not many took the test in order to do good. Once you passed you where a dog, but in truth she knew that no matter what job you took, you would always be a dog. It was just a different owner.
"What about you, do you practice or like alchemy," she said innocently tilting her head in curiosity slightly. "I mean you seem a bit like the sort..," she said trailing off a bit. She then blinked a bit before sayind, "Oh how stupid, your a state alchemist sorry I did not notice before. Ive been trying to get up to date but with little luck, so many things have happened since I shut myself into the forest," she said with a smile. Indeed she could just barely recall his face from an article.

"yeah.. once your a State Alchemist things change alot, its worth it though because i can do alot of good things" Raphael said calmly staring into space for a minute, he hadn't killed anyone yet but he knew someday he would "you shut yourself into a forest?" Raphael asked snapping back into reality "how old are you again?" -she's gotta be younger than me.. i wonder how someone would live in a forest.. seems a lil difficult- Raphael wondered
(OCC:so sorry, my life is taking over everything and i've had lil free time)

"Allot of good but also bad, I know that what I want to be is not sunshine and daisies," she said smoothly. She knew this fact well, she also knew she would take it in stride. If it was to save the world she knew the sacrifice of few for the many was necessary. Not just necessary but inevitable. The world required a balance and that balance was bloody, or so she had been told. Her mother had taught her at a young age, that one life in truth was only worth one life, but it was the feeling you had towards that life that made them special and worth it. Innocents defend, let evil falter.
Skye laughed at his shock at her information, she was not surprised he thought she was younger then she was. "Im twenty I locked myself away back when I was sixteen, dont look my age do I," she said with a smile. "Good ole genetics," she said with a small laugh. Yes good ole genetics, wasnt too sure where she got them. Her mom aged gracefully but she never really looked at that much younger, same for her father. Just she and her sibs looked younger then they should.
