It's nothing. Although, if you don't mind me asking, why are you wearing a suit of armor?
[The brothers look at each other, then back at Brosh and his partner, Maria Ross.]
ETElrics [together]
It's a hobby.
Hey, old lady, could you be our teacher?
[izumi creates a hand punching them away]
EElrics
EEYURAGH! Pretty please, old lady?
I'm a little hard of hearing, you see? So I didn't quite catch that! Maybe you'd like to repeat yourself.
Please, please teach us, pretty lady?
Teacher! [Izumi throws a knife at him] AHHH!
WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING COMING BACK HERE?! And you call me ‘Teacher’ I do not teach scum like you! Get out of my home!
We came to you because we’re trying to find a way to get our original bodies back.
And we won’t leave without your help!
You idiots… Al, you didn’t see the Truth, did you?
No, I don’t even really know what that means.
You must’ve lost your memory from the shock. We need to get Al’s memories back. His entire body was taken from him. Just think what he must’ve seen.
Oh yeah, we only exchanged parts of our bodies for what we saw. But Al paid the toll with his entire physical being. He must’ve seen more of the Truth than either of us did.
So, if I can remember what I saw, then we’ll know how to get our bodies back?
But the memory of that thing…
What is it something bad?
No, it’s more like awful!
It could drive you insane!
Or even leave you brain dead!
That doesn’t matter. If there’s a chance that it can help us. Then I want to do it.
Hmmm... I have an acquaintance who might be able to retrieve your memories for you.
But. Let's have dinner first. Give me a hand!
[outside Izumi's home]
BBido
The rumors are true! He's able to transmute human souls!
So you shake down strangers for food, and yet you can somehow afford two personal attendants?
Well, I am the emperor's son, after all.
EElrics
A prince! Hehehehehehe!
Not the reaction I anticipated.
Sorry! We just didn't see that coming!
Yeah, the guy who collapsed on the side road and then mooched food off us is the son of an Emperor!
Hohen… The name you said! By any chance do you mean Van Hohenheim? And how is it the two of you are acquainted with him?
… He’s your father?! I had no idea he had children! Haha! … If you are indeed his progeny, then why is it your family name is Elric?
Elric is our mother’s last name!
Oh is that so, so where is he been spending his time?
Who cares! Just forget him! Who the hell are you? And why do you look exactly like him?!
I know that he can’t be dead…
Brother! This guy’s the one who-
It would appear that you’re injured. And you’re missing your left hand, aren’t you? There and how’s that for you? Your arm is broken...
Uh! It’s not broken anymore. Uh! Hey…! Owww!
Few broken ribs as well. I consider the two of you to be vital resources you must both remain alive and healthy.
This isn’t right Al. He preformed a transmutation without any movement at all.
And he didn’t even thin out my armor.
EElrics
There isn’t any equivalent exchange!
Brother, is Winry there!?
Ed?! What, did you break your Automail again?
NO! I'm calling. Uh, er, well... to see whether you got there safely or not. Like you haven't seen any strange people or anything, right?
...Ed, You're creeping me out.
WHAT'S THAT'S SUPPOSE TO MEAN!?
Well, you hardly ever call me, so this is rather odd! As if someone as tactless as yourself could actually worry about others! This weird, like a snow storm in the summer.
Thanks, though. I'm happy... that you called.
[He hangs up]
You know, it's must really like her to let your desperate fears to be used like that!
No, I already told you, Greed.
You pal wanted me to give you this.
Yeah. Can't read it. He said to give it to a girl.
How do I know you won't follow us and murder her?
It's not my thing to fight women. Plus, I never lie. But hey, it's your call.
[Greed walks off]
