Here's Chapter 13. It's a welcome dinner for Edward.......let's see how that goes.......

 

[spoiler= CHapter 13: Tempers]

Chapter 13

 

Tempers

 

Edward and Hermione quickly ran down the spiral staircase, skipping stairs as they went to the dinner hall. The two arrived right on time. Amy was standing on the table, calling out names.

 

“Shadow?”

 

“Here.”

 

“Arya?”

 

“Here!”

 

“Aang?”

 

“Here.”

 

“Edward?”

 

“Present!” Edward said quickly as he nearly tripped over a chair. Everyone gawked at him. They gave Hermione a “You’ve got to be freaking kidding me,” look. Edward turned bright scarlet and sat himself in a chair. Hermione turned a shade of pink. She stared at the chair Edward was sitting in. She looked away from him. The hall itself was beautiful. The walls were a mellow tan with wood carved trimmings of dragons. Each chair looked very costly and the table stretched from one end of the room to the other. The ceiling was breathtaking in itself. A beautiful drawing had been painted on the ceiling. It was a clouded area with dragons flying in the sky. A bright light shone through the clouds. It made Edward gape, Michelangelo himself would be pleased with the work. Hermione then took a seat besides Edward, and she brought him back to earth with the scraping of her seat. Everyone else was already seated in place. Hermione sat next to Edward, Edward next to Amy, Amy next to Arya, Arya next to Knuckles, Knuckles next to Sasuke, Sasuke next to Aang, Aang next to Neji, Neji next to Shadow, next to Shadow was an empty seat. That seat would probably never be sat in again. Next to the seat was Hermione. Shadow solemnly removed the extra chair and brought it to the storage closet. While Shadow was gone, people muttered to their neighbor about things that have been going on and other petty things. Suddenly, Amy rang a little bell in her hand. Shadow returned to his seat. Everyone grew quiet. Amy and Arya each stood up. Amy spoke first. She cleared her throat.

 

“Well, um, Arya and I have been slaving over dinner for hours. Of course, this is in honor of our new guest!” Murmurs could be heard around the table.

 

“What new guest?

 

“Who is it?”

 

“Maybe he’s already here.”

 

“I bet she’s hot,” Edward heard it all, and it made him sink deeper into his seat.

 

“Our new guest is Edward Elric! Stand up Edward!” If the other things didn’t embarrass him before, this one did. He slowly got up and waved to everyone. They stared lazily at him. He quickly sat back down.

 

“They hate me,” whispered Edward to Hermione. Then Arya piped up.

 

“Anywho, dinner’s gonna be delicious! We have a great course set up for tonight. We’ll start with some Chicken Noodle Soup with cucumbers and Watermelon on the side. Then for the Main course, Amy made a tantalizing Turkey and Pizza dinner, I made the gravy myself and the tomato sauce. We also have a side of mashed potatoes and corn with the Turkey or Pizza. Also, Amy also baked this special mystery pie! I’m sure you will love the flavor as much as we do. Oh my, I almost forgot! The dessert! It is just mouth watering! What am I still doing talking? Let the feast, begin!” Amy and Arya then sat down as plates and pies and meats danced out from the hallway and landed on the table gracefully. Then hands reached outward to grab their fill of food. Edward took some of the soup and Watermelon. He took some bread and butter and dug into the food. The others did so to. The soup was warm against his throat and the watermelon complemented the bread and butter. He poured a glass of iced tea and guzzled it down. Amy and Arya watched him eating.

 

“Oh it’s so nice to see a guy appreciating our cooking,” Amy gushed.

 

“I know, oh he’s just gonna love dessert!” Arya added. The two girls sighed in happiness. Across the table, Hermione was giving Neji dirty looks. Neji was ignoring her obviously. Their relationship as friends had soured since the incident they had earlier that day. Aang saw the icy glare Neji was giving Hermione, and he shuddered. The only sound that could be heard was the clinking of utensils against the plates and bowls. It was very quiet so he decided to spark up a conversation.

 

“So Ed, where do you come from exactly?” Aang said, shoving a spoonful of mashed potatoes into his mouth.

 

“Well Aang, I hope I got that right,” Edward fumbled.

 

“Yeah, you got it right,” Aang replied back with a shy smile.

 

“Oh thanks,” Edward returned the grin, “I’m from Risenbol, Germany. Beautiful place to live in I tell you.” Edward chuckled, “I mean, it’s a pretty small town but the scenery is picture perfect. You could paint a masterpiece of the view there.” Edward said dreamily.

 

“Sounds like an amazing place to visit,” Aang said, the image painted into his head. Neji was grabbing for a bread roll from the basket, but Hermione reached over Shadow and stabbed Neji’s hand with her fork.

 

“Yeowch!” Neji gasped and rubbed his now slightly bleeding hand.

 

“Oops,” Hermione said innocently, “must have been an accident.” She giggled with a bit of venom in her face. Amy decided to change the subject,

 

“So Knuckles, I hear that you and Arya went to the carnival about a week ago. How was it? Explain in full detail,” Amy said to the couple. She listened in with eager ears.

 

“Well,” Arya started, “it was very nice. We went in the Funhouse and Knuckles got so scared, he had to hold me, we went on the spinning teacups and Knuckles threw up on a five year old. We went to the midway and Knuckles won me this cute stuffed teddy bear,”

 

“So THAT’S where you got that adorable bear!” Amy exclaimed.

 

“Yep, it was very sweet of him. We then went on the Ferris wheel, watching the fireworks, it was very romantic. And right before the carnival closed, he took me into the Tunnel of Love. And well, I’m not gonna explain that while our guest is enjoying our food.” Arya chuckled. But knuckles wasn’t afraid to talk,

 

“Well, what happened was I took her to the back of the attraction. We hopped into the water and she took off her-,”

 

“Knuckles, Not now! Ixsnay on the exsay,” Arya whispered to her boyfriend.

 

“Oh, you mean the se-,” Knuckles was about to finish his sentence but Arya elbowed him hard in the stomach, silencing him. While Knuckles rubbed his now sore abdomen, Sasuke was chatting with Shadow about nonsensical guy things.

 

“Are you sure about that Sasuke?” Shadows said open mouthed. Sasuke nodded, “Yes, that new Elric guy’s up to no good. I can see it in those eyes of his,” Sasuke snarled.

 

“He seems just fine,” Shadow motioned to Edward who was shoving food in his jaws faster than he could chew, “Just a hungry guy that’s all. Maybe he would even make a great addition to the-,”

 

“Don’t even think about it!” Sasuke whispered angrily, “if we have that nuisance join the Title, I’d hang myself with my own shoelaces. Seriously, Kellach must be turning like a ballerina in his grave cause this runt is even in this home,” Sasuke muttered.

 

“Hey, he might grow on us, like a weed,” Shadow said,

 

“Yeah, you know what weeds do to the flowers Shadow?” Sasuke jabbed. Shadow shook his head, “They steal the rich sunlight from the healthy flowers and they choke them to death. Then they literally suck the life out of the flowers and turn them to mulch. Then they use the dead flowers to breed like lab rats and spread the weeds everywhere. Soon we’ll have more weeds in our bountiful garden then we can take what then, huh? What we need to do is pull out the weed whacker and clean this place up before any hell can start.” Sasuke finished with an icy stare at Edward. Shadow just sighed and continued eating. Sasuke then gave up and started to angrily chew at his turkey leg. While the boys were arguing about the new guy, Neji was ranting at Aang about some unimportant problem of his.

 

“She’s a witch, I just come in to lift up her spirits and she beats on me. I’m not going to take her bull anymore,” Neji huffed.

 

“You made out with her after her boyfriend died a week ago. That qualifies you as a huge jackass,” Aang sighed to him, playing with his mashed potatoes with his fork.

 

“It was a comforting thing all friends do,” Neji argued back. Aang laughed at that,

 

“Sure, Oh hey Neji, you don’t seem to be doing that great, let me kiss you to make it all better! No. That’s just a horrible thing to say to anyone after a breakup even.” Aang said to Neji curtly.

 

“It seemed like the right thing to do at the moment,” Neji started again.

 

“Are you insane? Even on the planet Pluto that would be considered an exceedingly ghastly thing to do after tragedy, come on you have to know that,” Aang replied.

 

“I just have a vast fixation about the girl, of course I would never reveal that to her, ever,” Neji said.

 

“You are a helpless, sad little man when it comes to love,” Aang sighed.

 

“You’re only twelve, what do you know about love?” Neji barked.

 

“More than you know my all seeing friend,” Said Aang in a daze, his mind was definitely on another subject, so Neji stopped. While Neji growled in anger, Hermione was fuming within.

 

“The nerve of that Hyuuga! How can he just toy with my emotions like that!? He can probably read my every thought, the creep. What right does he have to kiss me after. . . . . . after. . . . . . all that’s happened in the past week? Ugh! I hate him so much I can’t even bear to look at him! Uh oh, people are staring at you Hermione, look happy, and don’t draw attention. There we go, now was that hard? Wait, why am I talking to myself? Oh yeah that’s right, I’m brooding. Gotta brood some more. Man this turkey is delicious, gotta remember to tell my complements to Amy and Arya- no! Stop getting sidetracked! Now do something you loser! Get up! Cause a scene! Punch something! Punch someone! Punch Neji! That stupid ninja totally deserves it! Yeah, but not yet. Right when he finishes his desert, POW! He’s dead. Yeah, that sounds good . . . . . ,” Hermione finished her thoughts and continued eating. Edward was thinking completely different thoughts than Hermione.

 

“Oh god, I’m so embarrassed! How dare that Amy and Arya just call me out like that when I know absolutely NO ONE! I mean they are nice, pretty girls and all, especially that Hermione – NO! Stop getting sidetracked! You are here for one reason and one reason alone, to find him and annihilate the Organization. These pathetic little heroes are only gonna slow you down. But wait a minute, these people are being very courteous, the least I can do is help them save their lives from the perilous oblivion that waits for them. . . . . . should I tell them? Or should I just let them drown? Ack! All this thinking is driving me nuts! I’m just going to turn in for the night,” Edward stopped lamenting, and started to get up, however, tempers amongst the table were about to burst.

 

“Knuckles you are so immature!” Arya shouted.

 

“You are going to be the end of us you pest!” Sasuke snarled.

 

“Why are you so stubborn you foolish little girl?!” Neji yelled.

 

“Just shut up you stupid ninja!” Hermione screamed.

 

“People, stop fighting!” Aang and Amy cried out. But it was no use; it was an all out fight. Hermione pulled out her wand and ran at Neji.

 

“I’m so sick of you! Why we saved you from Dartz I’ll have no idea!” Hermione shrieked and pointed her wand in the air.

 

“Aguamenti!” Hermione yelled, and a torrent of water spilled out from the tip of her wand, and cascaded all over Neji, dropping him to the ground. Hermione then leapt on him, knocking Neji on the table. She then began punching every piece of Neji she could get her hands on. She clawed at his face. Tears were spilling down her face as she yelled and screamed out in agony.

 

“HOW DARE YOU ASK ME OUT WHEN I’VE LOST HIM! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU! I’LL KILL YOU!!!!” Hermione screeched and she punched him in the face, blood coming out of his nose.

 

“Hermione,” Amy said quietly, she cowered in fear of Hermione slugging her.

 

“NONE OF YOU CARE, DO YOU?! NONE OF YOU! YOU PRETEND THAT NOTHING’S HAPPENED! NOTHING AT ALL!” Hermione was quite mad, still elbowing Neji all over.

 

“YOU JUST WANT TO MAKE IT ALL BETTER BY FORGETTING ABOUT IT! I MEAN, THE DINNER!!!!! YOU ONLY CARED ABOUT JAKE!!!!! IT MAKES ME SICK!!!” Hermione shrieked again, her voice going up another pitch. The others backed away from her, afraid she might explode. The pressure of the teens was too much for the table, and it shattered in pieces, sending Neji and Hermione falling onto the floor. Hermione still had a grip of Neji, and she was not letting go.

 

“HOW CAN YOU BE SO HAPPY?! HOW CAN YOU JUST GO ON!!! WE LOST OUR TEAM LEADER! OUR GREAT FRIEND!!!! MY LOVER!!!!!! THIS TEAM WON’T BE THE SAME!!!!! AND YOU!!!!!” Hermione then pointed a finger at Edward, “YOU MIGHT EVEN BE THE REASON THOSE BASTARDS CAME TO OUR HOME!!!! HOW DO WE KNOW THAT YOU AREN’T ON THEIR SIDE!!!! YOU COULD LEAD THEM HERE AGAIN!!!!” Hermione cried at Edward. Neji tried to crawl away, but Hermione saw him,

 

“OH NO YOU DON’T!” Hermione then turned around and punched Neji in the face so hard, he coughed blood and crumpled to the floor. He didn’t get up.

 

“AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!” Hermione let out a blood curdling shriek. The others had to cover their ears, the sound was deafening. Hermione then shot her wand into the air; she screamed so loud, the windows shattered, raining glass on the others. The glasses all exploded, firing shards of glass everywhere. The glass painting of the dragons cracked and collapsed on the now broken table. A white light shot from Hermione’s wand and engulfed her. She raised both hands into the air and the room nearly exploded. It was like a neon bomb hit. Hermione glowed very bright, and then she was gone, exploding in a white nova blast, sending waves of energy outward, destroying everything in its path. The others were lifted off their feet and were smashed up against the walls. Then it was over. Glass was still falling. There was no more of the dining room; it was reduced to debris and glitter. Water was all over the floor, and everyone was dazed and confused by what had just happened. Edward dusted himself off, so did the others. Shadow whistled loudly.

 

“Hell of a welcoming dinner, I’d say. Not as bad as the last one though, but still . . . whoa.” Shadow grinned.

 

“Oh god, Neji!!” Amy cried. She ran over to the bloody mess. Neji was unconscious, he was unrecognizable.

 

“What happened,” Neji coughed out, he was coming to.

 

“You got the crap beaten out of you by Hermione, damn that girl can punch!” Knuckles said to Neji, kneeling down to face him. He helped him up by giving Neji his hand to grab on to. He then rubbed his aching body. He was a bleeding mess. He had dried and wet blood all over his jacket and on his shorts. His nose looked like it had been smashed with a pair of golf clubs and someone had forgotten to clean up after themselves after ruining the grass on the course. His eyes were bloodshot, and his arms were limp at his sides. The others were baffled at the fact that Neji could even stand up.

 

“It’s ok guys, I just need to get to the infirmary. A few stitches here and there, a couple pills and I’ll be alright,” Neji said quietly. He took a step forward and fell flat on his face, “uh Knuckles, Shadow, a kittle help here?” Asked Neji, his voice was muffled a bit from the floor. Shadow and Knuckles gasped and helped his friend up. He now had scratches on his face from his fall. Shadow and Knuckles each put an arm under his armpit, and carried him like they were his crutches.

 

“See you guys later,” Neji said with a weak chuckle, and he was escorted out of the room. Everyone was silent. Amy was making a head count while everyone looked confused. Amy was recounting over and over again, she thought that she had made an error.

 

“Guys, where’s Edward?” Amy asked, turning her head left and right. Everyone else looked around too. They were just as confused. Edward was nowhere to be found.

 

Edward was in the elevator, pressing the “8” button on the pad. He knew Hermione would be up there. A catchy tune was playing as the metal contraption rose. Edward hummed to the tune; it was a favorite of his. The elevator then lurched to a stop at the eighth floor. He took a deep breath as he heard the sound of breaking glass and the ripping of paper. He walked down the familiar narrow hallway and to the sapphire colored door at the end. Hermione could be heard sobbing on the other end of the door.

 

“How can they not even care? It’s just not fair! Why did the Organization do this to us?! What did we ever do to deserve this?!” Hermione cried on the other side of the door. Edward then plucked up all the courage he had and tapped on the door lightly with his knuckle.

 

“Hermione? Are you there?” Edward asked.

 

“Go away!” Hermione cried. The sound of a hard pillow hitting the door rang through the hallway. Edward backed away from the door a bit, and then tried again.

 

“Hermione, I’m sorry about what happened. I’ve lost a lot myself, my mother for instance. And well, I tried to bring her back and, I can’t say that it worked very well. The Organization has taken away my partner, my brother. . . . . .” Edward said solemnly. The noises stopped. Hermione was quiet. Edward continued.

 

“But I’m older now, that was a long time ago Hermione. I’ve gotten wiser, stronger. So strong I might even be able to bring Kellach back to life.”

A little preview since ur waiting so patiently.

 

Neji was on the couch, grumbling. Shadow and Knuckles were both snickering on either side of him.

“Heh, you got beat up by a girl,” Shadow grinned. Neji ignored him.

“That’s kinda wimpy if you ask me bud,” Knuckles smirked. Neji still said nothing.

“Uh, Neji? I think you are going to have to search for a new gender because I’m revoking your dude membership.” Shadow guffawed. Knuckles joined him in the laughter. Neji then quickly sat up, grabbed both of their mouths and yanked them shut.

“Ha ha ha ha ha! No. You want to know why? This night NEVER happened. This is not going to be one of those things we laugh about a month from now on the lounge Hey Neji? Remember when you got beat up by Herm- No. Comprende?” Neji glared at them. The two nodded quickly. Neji let them go.
