Lines by Izumi 1
Izumi
When you live, your life will end sooner or later... The body will return to the earth. Grass and flowers will grow on top of it. The soul will nourish the hearts... and it will live on in the hearts of other people. Everything in this world flows around and circulates. That goes for human lives too.
Scenes with Izumi 12
Izumi
You helped bring a new life into this world, and that's an invaluable experience.
Naw... we just ran around, screaming our heads off, thinking she was gonna die.
You're not going to believe who's here! [Sig is behind him]
Ed, do you know this guy?
Izumi
And just where do you think you're going Ed? You've always been so predictable!
Uh, hello, Teacher! What are you doing here?
That's your teacher? But that means she's-
An alchemist; taught us everything we know.
Izumi
Where is Alphonse?!
Izumi
Oh yes, I'd like to thank you so much for escorting us here. Do you know where I can find Alphonse?
Izumi
Oh, that's right of course you are, now as I was saying… Uh…
Izumi
So, you're hiding in disguises now?! Don’t worry. I've had plenty of stories reach me about my idiot apprentices; breaking away from everything I taught them to become the scum of the military! Isn't that right?!
So much for our escape plan….
I know! I've got chills just thinking about what she's going to do to us now!
Izumi
Hey there Manny, so how's Cheiko doing?
MManny
She's going to have babies soon!
Izumi
Goodness, your house is going to be crowded!
MMason
Hey, Izumi! Welcome back!
MMason
That you Edward? I haven't seen you in a while! Ha-ha! So you've finally grown a little bit haven't you!?
MMason
So… Uh… Who's your big armored sidekick?
It's me Mason… His little brother… Alphonse…
MMason
Uh… That's some growth spurt!
This is a joke. What does she mean ‘cool our heads’? I hope she doesn’t think we’re going to have any trouble surviving here now.
She even forbids from using alchemy. It’s just like last time, isn’t it?
Yeah, really, I mean, what the point of doing this again? Does Teacher think we haven’t grown up at all?
Oh, I don’t know, I’m sure she has her reasons…
No, wait! Go back! Edward! Alphonse!
SSig
Don’t move around, girl. You’ll get wet.
But what do you want them to do?
Izumi
I don’t want them to do anything.
What’s right?! You left them on an uninhabited island, with out any previsions, and what do you mean you don’t want them to do anything?!
Izumi
I mean just that.
You know, I just don’t think I understand you people at all!
Izumi
It’s OK to do nothing.
Izumi
It’s alright to just stop and think things over for a while. Those two need some time to do that right now. (Winry looks taken aback)
MMason
I was just doing my job. Izumi told me to toughen you up a little bit.
Nearly dying of starvation and getting our asses beat was supposed to toughen us up?!
How could you do that to kids?! What kind of monster are you?!
Izumi
Stop bitching about the past and worry about someone other than yourselves!
I'm sorry, who the hell are you?
Izumi
PISSED OFF!
Izumi
What did she tell you.
Nothing, it was over when I got there. Lyra is gone too; I don't know where she went.
I'm not sure what to say teacher, except I'm sorry for all this. We'll look for the Ishbalans now.
If we stayed here, we would only bring more trouble.
There is a chance the military will come looking for you after all that has happened. You should stay hidden for awhile.
Izumi
Spare me Ed. If you guys start worrying about me, it really is the end of the world. You're goal is still the same then?
We gone through way too much to make it worth something now. We'll keep on moving until we get our bodies back.
Izumi
We'll meet again.
Izumi
I was hoping you'd be happy for me.
Do not expect me to coddle you, Izumi, I haven't the talent.
Izumi
I'm leaving you and this forest... I'm going to live in the city, among the people who need me.
If approval is what you're looking for, then you might as well enlist and become a state alchemist. I heard they praise their dogs well in the military.
Izumi
Tell me something.
I think you should go now.
Izumi
Did you ever... Did you ever love anyone other than yourself, Dante?
Why should I love any human being? They are all ignorant, egoistical things beyond redemption. Once they learned how to use gun powder, they thought only about waging war. If they ever understood the secrets of alchemy, what a horrible tragedy that would be.
Izumi
DON'T FORGET THAT I AM A HUMAN BEING, DANTE, AND THAT YOU ARE TOO!!
(Dante sits there smile on her face; flash back ends)
Izumi
Are you okay?
He was... crying. While I can't even squeeze out a single tear, that poor kid's crying like a baby, like he... he was crying 'cause I couldn't.
"Even with the Stone... he couldn't make her soul."
Izumi
"And you're fine with this?"
"That soulless doll... is the embodiment of his sins... Just like Sloth represented my sin.. And Wrath your's."
Izumi
"You've really grown up, Edward."
"I've grown up?... I thought I'd grown up when I was certified as a State Alchemist, but obviously I still had a long way to go from there."
[Izumi is fighting Archer in Central headquarters]
[Laughing maniacally] No wonder that Elric brat enjoys using his automail so much! The amount of power it supplies is absolutely exhilarating!
Izumi
That's precisely why I hate the military; because of power-hungry blood-sucking filth like you!
For the last time, give up this foolishness and join me and my men! We will soon be waging war in all directions ushering in a new era of domination! You can still be a part of it!
Izumi
I'd rather rot in Hell.
Your students will soon follow.
You fools! I'm your superior!! You will regret this!!!
