CLARE'S POV
???: Lieutenant Hawkeye! Musical Alchemist!
We turn over to see Fuery, who's in Mustang and Hawkeye's unit. Being out of breath, he swings his arm while holding a piece of paper. Wonder why he's in such a rush?
Hawkeye: What is it?
Fuery: Someone from the Personal Bureau came by earlier. They informed me that I was being assigned to duty at the Southern Command Centre.
Hawkeye: What?!
I gulp. The Furher must be behind this... If he's getting moved, who else?
Fuery: And it's not just me, either.
I look to Hawkeye all tensed.
Fuery: Lieutenant Breda is going to the Western Command Centre, and Warrant Officer Falman has apparently been transferred to the Northern Command Centre.
He's trying to split Mustang's team up...
I look to the three and turned to see two men approaching us. Who are they?
Guy 1: Lieutenant Hawkeye?
Hawkeye: Yes, sir.
Guy 1: I'm Yakovlev, from the Personnel Bureau.
Personnel Bureau?
Guy 2: And I'm Storche, assistant to the Fuhrer. Please take this.
He passes her a sealed letter.
Hawkeye: Are these transfer orders?
Storche: That's correct.
Hawkeye: If I may look at them...
Her face suddenly goes pale.
Me: Hawkeye what's wrong?
Hawkeye looks to Storche.
Hawkeye: What's this?! What kind of implausible assignment is this!?
Fuery: Where are you being whisked away to?
Hawkeye: "Starting tomorrow, First Lietenant Riza Hawkeye is assigned to the Central Command Centre... as an assistant to the Fuhrer."
I go pale... Shit.
Storche: Oh and Musical Alchemist.
I turn to him with an unsettled feeling in my stomach. Something is definetely wrong. He goes into his coat pocket and pulls out a letter. Oh no no no no. Please be anything but what I'm thinking of.
Me: These are also transfer orders... Aren't they?
He nods.
Storche: Yes.
I sigh. I open the letter to see I'm being sent to the Northern Command Centre... Haha really? In the North? You think they would keep me here because I'm useful to the Homunculi. I burst into laughter, startling everyone.
Hawkeye: What's wrong with you?
I pass her the letter for her eyes to go big.
Hawkeye: The North? What about you being a team with Fullmetal?
Me: We'll figure something out.
I get close to her and whispered into her ear.
Me: The Furher is smart, but not smart enough.
I wink to her before giggling again.
Storche: We'll be heading out now. Good day you three.
The two men take their leave.
