Alex had decided that things in Amestris would be needing the attention of a specialist, and he had a particular person in mind. the problem however, was that he hadn't seen hide nor hair of him In a long time. Alex had set out into the desert to find his mark but that was kind of like finding a shadow... in the sun. Alex jumped at the sound of a desert snake moving through the sand, but when he saw it he calmed considerably. Alex wasn't on edge because he was scared or anything, but because he respected the man so much it brought a sense of awe and respect he felt to only a few such as Roy Mustang, and the Fuhrer. Alex wasnt sure how long it would take but he needed to find the man who was his closest friend... but he was getting desperate.

Anthras had made his way over more than two hundred miles of desert and wasteland to this small oasis. A pool more than ten foot deep and a handful of trees, aswell as a small colony of bees were the only visible aspects of this oasis. this had been his masters oasis and it was now his final resting place. he watched Alex climb the outer hill and stumble into the oasis and land face first at his feet.
"So clumsy, Alex. What has gotten into you?

Alex got up and brushed himself off, walked over to the water and took a drink. alex stood up and shook hands with Anthras. "It has been a long time, my old friend. Did you get my letter?" alex was now a little queasy from his fall so he sat down on a rock in the shade of a tree.

Anthras thought for a moment, then turned his back on alex and answered. "I got your letter a while ago. about a year ago in fact. i wrote you a copy, but have been to busy to find a postal service to carry it." pulling from his jacket a letter he tossed it over his shoulder to Alex and started walking away. "I think that if things are as dire as you say, then i should be getting to work. I can reach you at your office in central right?" as he crested the dune and left armstrongs field of vision he changed the density of the sand below him and was swollowed up by a pocket of air. ten foot below the sand dunes it was a balmy sixty four degrees. "ah nothing like a good run to warm you up." using his alchemy to make a tunnel in front of him and close off the tunnel behind him he took off running toward rissembul.

Alex opened the envelope and took out the piece of paper. on it was scribbled a smily face withits tongue sticking out. dropping the letter alex walked up the hill to try and catch up to Anthras. when he got to the top Anthras was nowhere in sight. "Damn! How does he do that?" alex sighed and started walking toward central.
