• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    "You're lying," Hawkeye said. "It can't be... it can't be..." Nia looked away from her, not wanting to see it. She noticed that Ray was staring at Hawkeye, eyes glowing red. "Help, Eyebrows," he hissed. Hawkeye whipped around to him. "Don't!" Ray stepped back, hands raised in surrender. "Hey...

    Nia tried to put a comforting paw on Edward's arm, or at least prod him out of his flailing, but she was afraid that he was going crazy. He looked like he was hurting himself, or like he was going to, and that he might hurt anyone who got too close. She poked him again. "Edward...? Please...

    Nia shrank away from the gunshots; now that she was no longer focusing on fighting, the sound just intimidated her. She glanced up at Edward as he screamed for that Mustang person he seemed to care about a lot (but wasn't he dead?). It was probably a good thing that Edward couldn't move from the...

    "The last to be killed was Second Lieutentant Tristan Slater," Andrews said, obviously referring to Gretchen's victim. "He had a pregnant fiancee--" "Nah," Lightning said, "I'm really more interested in you." "Prince Wei doesn't mind sharing," Bao said helpfully. "If it's with my prince...

    Lightning's eyes flicked between all of the chimera. "Dismissed," she said. "Or standby. Whatever. Just go away to wherever you were, we don't need you here." "Yes, sir," both soldiers said, saluting, and they walked back to the well-lit lab they'd come from. Lightning watched them leave. When...

    The impact sounded like a gunshot, and for a moment Nia thought Andrews had pulled the trigger, but he just flinched a little and narrowed his eyes. "Yeah," he said, holstering his gun. "So you understand, right?" Nia heard a flurry of movement, and two soldiers came rushing in, both with...

    Yeah, Nia thought, even Edward thought Andrews' words were wrong, and he even yelled at Andrews. Except then Edward was starting to cry when Andrews spoke back at him, so did that mean that what Nia did was okay, but not what Edward did? Oh, wait, but now Edward was repeating some sort of mantra...

    "Perfectly innocent?" Andrews glanced at Hyland's photo - or maybe at the picture nearby, which he picked up. Although it appeared he was just looking at it himself, Edward had a clear view of the smiling young girl in an oversized military jacket. "An innocent little girl, just like Lily...

    "Perhaps I was the only soldier in that room deserving of death," Andrews continued, breaking his stare. "If we were to speak of humans and monsters... Private Charles Tupman was not a monster. He was the newest soldier on the premises, still unused to guarding or fighting anything other than...

    "No," Andrews said, "Perhaps they didn't beg you for forgiveness, but they didn't think they could be forgiven. I know of very few soldiers who came back from the Ishbalan War unscarred. Most of the ones that might have were assassinated by their own subordinates." He smirked. "At least a...

    Andrews glanced at Edward, then he finally shifted, confirming he wasn't just a very convincing statue. He looked over all of the chimera, then stared Edward in the eye. "Do you know why we lock up fellow human beings? Kill them? Why the public allows it? It's because some human beings are...

    Nia let out a whimper when she awoke and shifted, jolting her still-sore ribs. She opened her eyes slowly, and blinked. They were... in another cell? This time, they were more securely trapped in the cell, however. Nia looked down and saw mittens covering her front paws, and she felt a collar...

    With his eyes closed, it may have seemed like the leader was focusing on the woman simply because he was talking to her. The others, however, fully capable of seeing how he was still wary of their actions, knew better. A brilliant blue glow easily caught his attention, and he immediately pointed...

    The gun Gretchen had in her hand wasn't meant for one-handed use, and she didn't have any gun training, so it was good that she didn't care whether she hit or not. The gunshot only managed to startle her target, and harmlessly hit a wall. - Nia tried to swipe at the man's neck before he could...

    (( It would be a lot easier for me if you lot just shot yourselves. ... that came out wrong. Anyway, you're not all moving too fast for the eye to track, you know. The soldiers should be able to react. )) Gretchen may have been right between two soldiers, preventing them from shooting her...

    The blade, alchemically constructed to perfect sharpness and hardness, easily tore through the woman's skin, then her muscles, then her blood vessels and throat and again, out the other side. Blood gushed out of her neck, spraying all over Edward's face and into his mouth and eyes. Her last shot...

    Beneath the loud buzzing of Gary's wings and the howling of the wind, Nia could swear she heard a scream, the pounding of someone's heart, and a girl's pleading voice. What looked like black mist wafted up from the five tanks with chimeras inside, and they formed shapes vaguely reminiscent of...

    Hyland barely managed to get out a, "Charles!" when Edward learned first-hand why it was a bad idea to hold a blade to the throat of a man with a gun from the front. BANG! Nia, who had just leapt after Edward and barely missed grabbing his shirt with her teeth, froze at the sound of the...

    The leader raised an eyebrow. "Yes, we're going to believe you're innocent. It's too late for that, Elric. As for Mustang, he's probably dead. Most soldiers would be unable to execute a child, but not so for a war veteran." "No," Tupman said to Elaina, "by freak I mean... inferiors to...

    "Private Tupman, shut up," the leader said. "I wouldn't be surprised if your memory was damaged with the chimerisation... they found out about your plot with the Flame. Death sentence, of course. If you surrender, you can get all the appropriate newspaper articles and radio transcripts. There...
