The Night Patrol

[Maes Hughes [May Cassiopeia]]

Hughes grasped his arm. He ducked down and slid under 48's legs avoiding the swipes. He stood up and threw some mor knifes. "Though i dont usally enjoy fighting much," He said to 48,"I am very impressed and I just might enjoy this. Hughes usually stuck to investigation and Police work but he was trained to fight and was exeptionally good with throwing objects. He was wondering how many knives he had left as he scanned the room for other throwable objects.

[Subject #48 [Ash Murdoch]]

48 turned around and blocked a couple of the knives but one got stuck in his left elbow-joint reduching 48's leftarms movement.
But that didn't stop him from continueing his assault on Hughes.
48 swung at Hughes' legs to try and lessen his movement.
"Stop moving around like a little monkey!"

[Maes Hughes [May Cassiopeia]]

Hughes just smiled and doged the blows. Then he realised that souls in suits of armor cant feel so they dont get tierd. He wondered how long he could kepp this up and decided he should end it soon.

[Subject #48 [Ash Murdoch]]

Just as Hughes dodged 48's blow, 48 quickly charged into Huhges with his shoulder knocking him into a wall, and then stabed his sword through him right at the shoulder pinning Huhges to the wall.
48 grabbed Huhges throat and said: "Alright this has been fun, but I've grown tired of you! So give one good reason not to kill you right here and now!"

(ooc: Please make up something to make him stop guarding this place and get out and do stuff! Maybe even join the good guys or something.)

[Maes Hughes [May Cassiopeia]]

Maes knew he had to change subject fast so he quickly thought of a distraction,"Why do you protect this place anyway? I mean whats the point if no one ever comes?" He thought that would be sufficient to distract him for a while before he tried to kill him again. He sliped from 48's grasp and faced him.

[Subject #48 [Ash Murdoch]]

48 didn't mind Huhges slipping his grib, for he was still pinned to the wall by his sword.
"I have been ordered to guard this place to make sure no one findes out about what they're doing here. And I have to follow that order, since they let me leve on like this."

[Maes Hughes [May Cassiopeia]]

"Who ordered you?" he asked still trying to get away,"why are you following their orders anyway? if you escape they wont be able to kill you, right?"

[Subject #48 [Ash Murdoch]]

48 saw Huhges still trying to get free, so he grabbed hold of his sword and gave it a little twist just let Huhges feel the pain.
"No use to try and get free, so better use this oppetunity to rest a bit Lieutenant Colonel. And to answer your question; the ones who gave me this life and someone called homunculus whatever that means. You don't even know powerful they are! There is nowhere I can go to hide from them."

[Maes Hughes [May Cassiopeia]]

"Well we could always help..." he began felling a twinge of gulit for this soul, despite the severe pain in his arm. A person with only a soul attached to a suit of armor forced to do the humonculous' biding for the rest of his existance. It would be a horible life. "Your going soft Hughes," he heard Roy mustangs voice echo in his mind.

[Subject #48 [Ash Murdoch]]

"HA you?! Help?! I have to laugth! You don't even know how unsafe it would be for me to trust your people!" He said.
"Brother he doesn't know that his own.." another voice from the chest of the armor said, but got interrupted by the first voice: "Shhh little brother, we can't say any more without getting into trouple!"
"But big brother there is'n anybody keeping eye on us any more, they have forgotten us! Might as well tell him, then he might be able to help us get out!" the voice in the chest replied.
"Alright then little brother" the first one answered and then looked at Huhges and said: "Okay Lieutenant Colonel, I will pull out my sword, but you'll have to promise that you won't run away, if you do I will kill you, and I mean it cause up till now I have only been toying with you and could have killed you much quicker then that! So will you stay put so we can talk? If you do I might be able to tell about alot of things that you propperbly didn't know and would like to!"

[Maes Hughes [May Cassiopeia]]

Hughes being slightly confuse at the sight of this said,"Sure why not?" Once the sword slid out from his shoulder he stood up slightly massaging his arm. Sencing everything was safe now his mood lightened significantly. He pulled out the picture of Elicia. "Since we are no longer fighting, just talking, I'd like to show you something." He held up the picture and said in a creepy obsessive voice,"This is my daughter Elicia isnt she cute! She is 4 years old now! Can you believe it

[Subject #48 [Ash Murdoch]]

(ooc: Yes finally a Huhges golden moment! I love it!)

48 quickly sliced the picture in half without Huhges getting hurt or able to do anything before it was too late.
"Don't test me! I don't want to hear about your daugther! I want to knowwhat you can do to insure my safety?!"
He said with that metalic echoing voice.

[Maes Hughes [May Cassiopeia]]

"Aw poor Elicia," he said gathering up the pieces,"It's ok my darling all better." Then he turned back to 48. "Fine well get serious here," he said,"My friend Roy mustang is a very powerful alchemist. We're starting a sort of secret organization . We are searching for what youve been trying so hard to avoid. The Humonculous. You provide us with information and your fighting skills well provide you with a team and protection."

[Subject #48 [Ash Murdoch]]

48 took a step back and then said: "Alright then, if you knock my helmet off gain in a fight, I'll join you"
And then he took a battlestands.

[Maes Hughes [May Cassiopeia]]

"Very well," he said sighing. He really hoped he be home by ther sunrise. Too bad, but he had buisness to take care of. He started by throwing more knives then he advanced.

[Subject #48 [Ash Murdoch]]

48 quickly dodged the first 2 knives then blocked the next two as he also advanced towards Huhges.
But one knife hit his helmet, so 48 stopped in his tracks, scared that it would fall off.
So instead of attacking Huhges 48 just took ready stands again and swung his sword at Huhges when he got into range.

[Maes Hughes [May Cassiopeia]]

Hughes ducked and kicked up, trying to hit the helmet. Then he threw 5 knives. Two at his legs, two at his arms and the final one neer the helmet. "Im growing tired of this," he said,"I havent seen my darling Elicia in a whole 6 hours! Let's hurry up ok?"

[Subject #48 [Ash Murdoch]]

48 blocked the kick easly and the knives exept the one aimed at his helmet, it hits and it starts to slide off but 48 quickly tries to grab hold it it before it falls, not keeping notice of Huhges.

[Maes Hughes [May Cassiopeia]]

Hughes slid under 48's feet and stood up on the other side. While 48 was distracted he knocked off his helmet from the back.

[Subject #48 [Ash Murdoch]]

48 turned quickly to cut Huhges in half but stoped at the last second, he had already lost.
"Looks like you win Lieutenant Colonel" he said to Huhges as pull his sword away from Huhges furhead, the blade had been only a inch away from hitting him.
48 went over and picked up his helmet and put it back on, he then turned to Huhges and said: "Alright then, looks like I'll have to help you out from now on."
