Theme: SHERLOCK - 07 Which Bottle? (Series 1 Soundtrack)

- Can you do it? Take one life you have spent your entire life hunting down to kill,by taking thousand of other lives? Black Flame said sweetly.
- I......I.....I........Ron said before he untensed his hands.
- I can't......Ron said,admitting defeat and dropped his hands.
- Thought so.Black Flame said in a sinister and dark voice.
- He he he he he........Black Flame chuckeld darkly as Shean let out a shriek of disbelief towards Ron.
- What is it?!Ron growled furiously,no doubt furious with himself.
- He he he he.......Just because you can't hurt me.....Black Flame said before he violently lashed out and planted his claws right in Ron's stomach before quickly lashing out,ripping through his entire body.
- RON!!!!!Shean yelled in shock and terror.
- .....Dosen't meant that I can't hurt you.....Black Flame said as Ron fell backwards in a shower of his own blood.

And two pages were flipped.

Theme: Sukima Switch - Golden Time Lover - Instrumental
The camera flew through a thick crowd,moving through the street until it hit the end of the road and flew up on The Lampshade Detective Agency where Robin was standing on the roof in the wind.
Robin lifted his hat and threw it up into the air so that the hat covered the sun.

R.L.A.
Robin Lightwalker's Adventures.


The hat flew away as Robin jumped down from the roof.
- Figure tense,mind spining,I don't know what to do.
Robin was walking through an unseeing crowd,his expression grim.
- The shadows are moving when I can't see,darkness consumes me when I see.
Robin saw shadows moving and he saw the forms of Kamilitron,Dragonmaster,Larkar,Talvor, Modernon,Allianser and Socelieria form in the shadows.
- This is my battle,something that I have to do.
Robin kept walking ahead even thou the shadows consumed everything behind him as a thunder storm covered the sky and it began to snow.
- I am not alone,I fight as many and we fight as one.
Robin leaped out of the way of Kamilitron and activated his powerblade as Antz-o-in,Yao,Lin,Tho,Ron,Shean,Han,Ramroth and Hayir jumped out from their hidding spots and attacked.
- When you know your place,put on your poker face!
Ron,Shean,Ramroth,Hayir,Yao,Lin,Tho,Antz-o-in,Zander,Zander Oni form,Han and Kiria appeared in a split second each.
- It is a battle where you win or lose. It is time for you to choose where you stand on this battlefield.
The two groups charged towards each others,exchanging attacks wildly.
- This is a battle where you live or die, so come on,don't give up and lets give it a try!!
The two forces charged towards each other and Robin and Kamilitron who were leading the forces collided together.
- Come and face me in a fight.
Robin and Kamilitron dodged and evaded each others power blade attackes. Kamilitron jumped backwards and launched a missle of darkness towards Robin.
- Come and face the light.
Robin and Antz-o-in joined together and sent a flash of light against the darkness and destroyed it.
- You now face our might.
Robin and Antz-o-in charged towards Kamilitron,but Kamilitron jumped back and he and 1,Dragonmaster,Larkar and Talvor sent a rain of lightning towards them.
- When we stand together, you don't stand a chance in a fight.
The rain of lightning was blocked by a wall of sand by Ron,but then a blast of flames came from Black Flame,Larkar,Talvor and 1. But the attack was sent back by a wind by Ramroth who jumped in the way of the attack and sent it back with a twister.
- Just because the odds stands against us dosen't mean that I will quiet.
The flames and wind where canceled by a burts of darkness from all of the apprentices and Kamilitron who stood firm as the allies of justice stood united.
- And that I will never do.
The two forces charged towards one another once again and the two forces gave their all and collided in a big firey explosion.

Season 3: The Mystery of The Shadow City.



Chapter ThirtyOne:
The morning after the night.

Theme: None.
Light trinkeld through the dark as distant voices echoed all around him.
Light broke through the darkness.
- I think......I think he is starting to wake up......I think he is starting to come around everybody....Han's familiar voice broke through the light as the world came back into view as the sudden light fadded with the the darkness as Robin opened his eyes.
Theme: Flower OST - Peaceful Repose
- Oh thank the lord that you are awake....Han said relieved as Robin opened his eyes.
Questions and Answers. Case 35: Contracts and Deals.
Robin came back with a quick jolt of the sudden shock of being back in the world of the consiouss.
He looked around himself.
He was in a hospital bed and the sun was breaking through the open window's curtins.
Oom-Baan-Diin: District H: Hospital Wing B: Second Floor: Fourth Room to the the left.
The next day.
- Wha-what happened....? How did I get here? Robin asked as Han handed him a glass of water.
- Hayir found you completely knocked out in the park when he returned to it after having helped Yao,Lin and Tho fight of The Fallen Avatar.Han said almost comversationally.
- Hayir.......Robin said a bit thoughtfully as he looked into his glass.
- Yeah,that's a whole other story. All of District Z is gone. All of it. Not a living soul,other then Hayir,Yao,Lin and Tho remain of that district. But everything down to almost the very foundation of the city has been destroyed. The district is gone. Han said seriously.
- That light.....That feeling.......Robin muttered before he took a sip of water.
- You can ask him when he comes. He has been waiting outside ever since he brought everyone here. I can even go and get him. Han said and stood up.
- Is there.....Is anyone else here? Robin said tiredly as he tried to sit up in the bed.
- Zander,Yao,Lin,Tho,Ron and Shean. Almost everyone got hurt in someway. The only ones who didn't get hurt is me and Hayir. Han said as he stood up.
- What happened?Robin asked.
- You and Zander suffered from pure exhuastion and were completely drained. Yao.Tho and Lin have been hurt that they have petrified themselves,other then their mouths,eyes and nose.The rest of them is stone so that they can heal. Ron got to close to Black Flame and got almost his entire rip-cage torn up.Shean took Black Flame's tail to the stomach and throat. Han said grimly.
- Where were you? Robin asked as he noticed that even thou Han said he didn't get hurt,he still looked a bit banged up.
- I was in District I,taking care of the evacuation. Han said simply.
- But is it true?......Is it true that Ramroth is dead? Han said after a short pause.
- It's true.....Robin said gravely.
Han lowered his head.
- So he really is dead......Han said sadly.
Theme: Flower OST - Life as a Flower
- Hey Han.....Robin said after a moment of silence.
- Yes? Han said,looking back up.
- Where is everyone? Robin asked,refilling his glass.
- Antz-o-in is in the bed next to you,still sleeping. Ron and Shean is getting a healing gel treatment in the room next to you two and Yao,Tho and Lin is in the next room. Hayir is doing what he has been doing every since he dropped you off here. Walking through the corridor,patiently waiting for you to wake up. Han said with a small,soft smile.
Robin lowered his head a bit as he remembered that terrible feeling he felt during the night,when the night sky lit up in green and purple.
- I could go get him if you would want to. Han said,trying to break the mode.
- That would not be needed. A dark growl of a voice said as the door opened and Hayir came in.
- H.....Hayir....Robin said,not knowing what to say as Han just greeted Hayir with a curt nod.
Antz-o-in started to stirr as Hayir walked up to stand inbetween their two beds.
- Shut.......Shut up everyone.....I'm trying.....sleeep......Just.....Just...."YAWN".....Five more minutes please......Antz-o-in muttered and the three others in the room smiled small smiles as Antz-o-in tumbeld tiredly in his bed.
Hayir turned to Robin just as Robin turned to Hayir.
- Hayir.......Robin said a bit unsure.
- Robin...Hayir said less unsure.
- Thank.....Thank you.....Thank you for bringing us here and waiting for us.Robin said and looked away after he had expressed his gratitude.
But then he turned back to Hayir.
- But what about last night?......What happened?......What was that?....That feeling.....That terrible.....overwhelming hatred and malice.......Robin said unsure,yet prepared for the worst as Hayir lowered his head.
Theme: flOw Soundtrack: Life Could Be Simple [Full Version] - 1080p [First On YouTube]
- That would be me....Hayir said and Robin and Han came to stop.
- But.....B-b-b-but.....But that feeling....That overwhelming power.....That monstrous....And vile hatred......That putrid bloodlust and fierce malice......Robin said,more then a little bit supriced and more then a little bit stumped.
- That is me......Hayir admitted without looking up.
- Bu-bu-but.....!Robin stuttered.
- That destructive,all consuming,all oblivating and obliterating,all encompassing power fueled by nothing but hatred is me......That which destroyed District Z,turning it into nothing but a crater in the ground was me.....My powers did that.Hayir said and looked Robin hard in the eyes as Robin cracked.
- I think it is time that I made my leave.....Hayir said with a grunt and turned around.
- But....But....But you are nothing like that...!Robin said brokenly,reaching out to Hayir's back.
Hayir stopped.
- Don't believe everything you see.You only see the best in people.It is heigh time you started growing up Robin and stopped doing that. Stop letting people come so close to your heart. And stop believing your own lies.Hayir said in a gruff,stern and downright threatning growl that made Robin shiver and shudder.
- H-Hayir.....Robin said,not knowing what to say.
- Think on that.Hayir said and turned around.
- You better have figured it out the next time we meet. Hayir said and slammed his walking stick into the ground.
The next second,Hayir was swallowed by a tornado of purple flames.
- HAYIR!!!Robin screamed as Hayir disappeared and woke Antz-o-in up in a shock.
When the tornado disappeared,Hayir was gone without a trace and Robin deflated.
Theme: Flower OST - Lazy Daydream
- Robin......What happened? And why do you look like a tornado just went through here? Antz-o-in asked tiredly as Zander accented his voice.
Robin let out a sigh.
- It is a long story...Robin said sadly and dropped his head.
- So,look who is awake.Ron's voice stopped Robin's next sentence right in his mouth as Ron kicked open the door and he and Shean came in on wheelchairs.
- Ron!Shean!The doctors said that you shouldn't be up and about while the gel takes effect. Han said concerned and rushed up to them both.
- Sorry Han. But I refuse to sit around after we all suffered such a heavy defeat.Ron said seriosuly,stopping Han in his tracks.
- District Z is no more. District I's park is nothing more then a smoking husk and bits and pieces of District Z rained down all over the city,causing city wide damadge. And even thou we won a few battles yesterday,in the end,we lost. Ron said seriously.
Shean just nodded.
- So I take it Hayir just left after somebody tried to get some information out of him? Shean asked,noticing the scorched circle in the floor.
- It was him....That terrible feeling and that horrifying power.....That was all him. Robin said grimly.
- So that means that we now have lost two Allies of Justice.Ron said grimly.
- One dead and the other fled.Shen muttered.
- So,when do you think we will get out here?Antz-o-in asked,breaking the heavy silence.
- You two will undoubtedly be released after breakfast. You two only suffered from exhuastion. And if you two hop back into the heal gel tanks,you two will be out of the hospital by the end of the day. Han said,crossing his arms and looking first at Robin and Antz-o-in before turning to Ron and Shean.
Then he faced both duos.
- Sadly,from what Yao said,they are going to be here for a while. The hospital is a safe and contrilled enviroment that is the best place for them to heal themselves. And it is a great place to recover from their healing aswell. So sadly,I think they are going to be here a while. Han explained.
A contemplative silence followed.
- So.....We and The Stone Hengers are all that remains of The Allies of Justice now.Robin said,summing everything up as he looked at each and everyone in the room.
Everyone was a bit banged up in some way.
- Screw it! I am not sitting around here waiting for the world to turn. Antz-o-in said and leaped out of the bed and onto the floor.
- Let's go and get some breakfast so we can get out of here.Antz-o-in said impatiently.
Everyone blinked.
Then everbody laughed as they complied.

Oom-Baan-Diin.
Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 2 - The Plot Thickens
A blond women in one of the aristocratic districts suddenly felt a strange burning sensation in her chest.
- Honey? Her husband asked worrid.
The next second she screamed and collapsed as her eyes lit up in blue as her body turned to ash.
- HONEY!!The man asked and rushed to her.
A banker suddenly gasped as pain burned through him before he fell face forward and turned to ashes.

Somewhere beneath the city.

Theme: flOw Soundtrack: Shadows [Full Version] - 1080p [First On YouTube]

Allianser walked out of the shadows and looked up through the broken layers towards what could be seen of the city above.
Then he turned back and walked into the darkness.
- What the hell is happening up there? People are said to be dropping like flies. Modernon said with a irritated growl of frustration as he stood leaning against a wall with his arms crossed.
- Black Flame is healing himself. Allianser answered before Socelieria answer as he entered the room.
- What?!Modernon roared in shock.
- He is pulling in his deals to heal himself. He took quite the beating from The Allies of Justice last night,so now he is using them as back up lives and ways to restore himself. Allianser explained.
- Be quiet....I am trying to concentrate. A dark voice growled in frustration.
The three silenced and turned around in the room and looked at 1,sitting in a chair,his left hand tightly gripping onto the arm rest as golden amber eyes glared at them as silvery grey hair stuck out from his shredded mask.
- Sorry 1. They said in unison.
Modernon looked at 1 and his disheveled and beaten state.
His custome was in shredded tatters,revealing deep cuts and fierce burn marks sprinkeld all over 1's body.
He looked like he was put into a mixer.
A mixer on flames.
His right arm was completely gone.
Thou the area were his right arm once was completely cleaned and closed off as Natura was showered in a healing aura.
- Talvor is still asleep and Larkar is sitting in the middle of the furnace,recovering his heat. Socelieria informed.
- Guddo.Allianser called out and the form of The White Detective appeared.
- You called? The White Detective asked.
- Kamilitron has a mission for you. Go to The Mountains in The North.We have a contact there that needs your special abilities. Allianser said in a commanding voice.
- As you wish. The White Detective said and turned around and disappeared into the darkness.
1 growled.
- The Planet Destroyer is something special. Quite special indeed. Natura said  and lifted his palm to his head.
Allianser,Modernon and Socelieria blinked and looked at him.
- He is as strong as our master,yet he could have destroyed me,obliterated me. Yet here I am and our base is almost revealed and our plan has come dangerously close to being found out. Natura said in a growl.
- Don't worry about the base. That which cost you that...Allianser said and pointed towards 1.
- ....Didn't get close to the base or The Ruler......The base is safe and the remaining darkness in the area has hidden what remains. And we have Demens guarding every floor. Allianser said and Natura nodded.
- And soon,this whole thing shall be forgotten. Natura said firmly and confidently.
- How? The three Curondians asked.
- Easy. We renovate. Natura said amused.

Oom-Baan-Diin.

Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 3 - The Pendulum
Robin knelt down before the fallen form an aristocratic women as Han was making her husband look into a light as Antz-o-in investigated the place for break inns.
- You sure that there was no one here or that you heard anything else before your wife screamed? Antz-o-in asked after having checked outside.
- Yes.....I'm....I'm sure......We were both alone.....We were both alone when it happened. The husband answered nervously as Han continued to search and look at him.
- There are no signs of a break in anywhere and I can't see a place or angle from outside where a Deman's eyes could have been reflected. Antz-o-in explained as Robin stood back up.
- And there are no signs of a struggle or a deman anywhere inside. Robin said as he and Antz-o-in walked up to the man and Han.
- And this man is not a Deman,nor was his wife,otherwise,this scene would look radically different. Han informed.
- What the hell is going on here?!Antz-o-in said frustrated.
- This is the 15th case like this we have had this day! Antz-o-in continued as he stomped around.
- These unexplained deaths were the victims turns into ash forms of themselves as they die has been popping up all over the city today. Robin said,just as confused and frustrated.
- There are more cases like these? The man asked supriced as Han went over to the woman and started searchinga dn investigating her broken form.
- Indeed. And we aren't the only agency dealing with these sort of cases. Every single detective agency in the city is occupied with these strange deaths as more and more are popping up all over the place. Robin informed and the aristocratic man's eyes widdened.
- I think I know what killed her. Han said from the floor.
Everyone turned to him.
- And what was it? The three asked in unison.
- Her contract expired. Han said grimly.
Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 3 - The Forebearer
- Contracts? Robin and Antz-o-in asked in unison as the man gasped behind them.
- No.....The man said despaired.
- Yes. I am afraid she had a Deman contract. And from the looks of it,the Deman pulled the contract in. I will contact the other detectives. Han said and started to pick up his phone.
- Contracts? Robin asked again and walked up to Han,who pointed at a piece of the womens skin were a few words appeared beneath her clothes.
- If it is the same deman that has made a contract with all these recently deceased people,then they probably weren't as innocent as we have been led to believe. Han said grimly.
- Why? Antz-o-in asked as he helped Robin turn the women over and lightly open her clothes to see what had been burnt into her skin in an oily black.
- Because the only deman that could possibly have this many people contracted and have a reason to pull in his side of the bargin would be Black Flame. Han said darkly.
Robin and Antz-o-in looked at him.
- We will go and investigate some of the other cases and see if your theory agrees with what we see. Antz-o-in said as they went towards the door.
- We will meet at your place this evening.If Ron is up to it,I would like you and him to explain what a contract is. Robin said firmly as he left the building,leaving the man of the house despaired and Han lost in old times.


Chapter ThirtyThree:
All great men start small.

Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 2 - 12. Nocturne of Amestris
Several years ago.
Oom-Baan-Diin: School for gifted benders and brillijant young minds.
Ron walked into the schoolyard,a frown adorning his tiny face.
Ronald Moran,6 years old.
He looked around the place and saw the kids playing while others were talking.
The teachers aided the kids while some of the others were talking to each others,occasionally glancing at the kids.
All of them were in groups.
And here he stood dressed in light brown pants,black shoes with white laces and a white shirt with a few big and bold red stripes adorning it.
All alone.
He took a steadying breath before glancing back one last time as his mom and dad walked away.
He steadied himself and entered the schoolyard for his first day of school.

A while later.

Ron sat a bit away from the kids,crying into his arms.
He was soaked,covered in mud,freezing.
His hair was a mess,his clothes were wet and mud stained,his hair was badly disheveld and both his arms and his clothes showed several burn marks.
He tried to hang out with some of the bending kids,but all they did was taunt him,mock him and bully him just because he didn't move rocks and boulders or even big stones.
He moved something insignificantly as sand.
Grains of rocks and stones.
And nothing else.
And as he was crying,they were still doing it,both mocking and bullying him verbally and physically with their bending.
- HEY! Knock it off you guys! A voice broke through the leering voices and the voices quieted down and the bending stopped as Ron registered another boy sitting down besides him and putting an arm on his back as he continued to weep.

Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 2 - Far East Suite ~Pizzicato~
- Don't listen to them kiddo. Don't let them bother you so much.The kid,a bispeceld boy with lightly yellow eyes with a greenish tint to them and black hair dressed in light green pants and a light blue and dark blue sweater said sothingly,calmly and friendly.
- Th-tha-thanks......Ron said as he tried to regain himself as the boy handed him a napkin to dry his tears and a wet napkin to clean himself.
- Hey,no worries there kid. Names Han. Han Kieseli. I can't bend,but appearantly my parents thinks that I am more gifted then my sister and sent me here. Han said and reahced out his hand in a friendly gesture.
Han Kieseli,10 years old.
- Ronald Morran. Thou everyone calls me Ron.I can bend sand to my will....But that is about as much as I can do. Ron said and grabbed Han's hand and shacked it.
- Great! Good to meet you! Han said with an eager and friendly smile,downright exstatic about it.
Ron had to smile at the way Han acted and laughed at his new and excentric friend.

Two years later.

Ronald Moran,8 years old.
Han Kieseli,12 years old.

It was during a normal day that everything took a drastic change.
Everyone was outside playing in the schoolyard when a female city guardian entered the park.
Since a few of the children in the school were children of guardians and defenders,they stopped whatever they were doing when they noticed the person entering the yard.

Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 2- No Answer
The woman walked through the now silent kids and walked straight up to Han after having looked around the now silent field.
- Are you Han Kieseli?The woman asked firmly,like she already knew the answer.
- Y-y-yes.....Han answered nervously.
- I'm sorry.The woman asked and handed him a few sheets of paper.
Han nervously grabbed the papers and began to read them.
- No......Han said in disbelief after just a few sentences.
- No......Please no......Han said moments later,changing sheet,a note of despair and desperation clamouring into his voice.
- Please no.....No no.....no please.......Please tell me it isn't true!?!Han yelled desperatly as he looked up at the woman as tears trinkeld down his cheeks.
- I'm sorry,but it's true.The woman said and lowered her head.
- NO!Han yelled and dropped the papers and ran straight out of the silent field in tears.
- HAN!!!Ron yelled nervously and began to follow,but the woman put a hand on his shoulder and looked up at her and all she did was shake her head.
Ron then looked down at the papers that Han had thrown away.
They were summons to the hospital.
And a death certificate.
- No......Ron said grimly as he saw the picture of Han's youngest sister Anna Kieseli on the death certificate and his parents names on the hospital summoning.

Hours later.


Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 1- Fifth Laboratory
Ron hurried to the hospital were Han's parents were admitted as soon as school was over.
He arrived at the hospital just in time to see Han burts through the hospital door,running away from the hospital in a mad sprint in full tears.
Ron wanted to follow out of concern for his friend,but his coriousity and worry of his own for his best friend's parents and what could have possibily have caused Han to run away like that was to much so he entered the hospital and soon enough found Han's parents.
And then he immediatly realised why Han ran away.
His sister was gone and now,so were his father. And his mother was on her dying breaths.
Ron quickly ran out of the hospital,taking persuit of Han.
Han had such a desperate look in his teary eyes as he left the hospital.
At his current state of mind,he could do something irreversible.

An alleyway away from the hospital.

- Please!Please!Please!Somebody help me!Please somebody help me!PLEASE!!!CAN ANYBODY HELP ME!!!Han yelled and pleaded into the dark corners of the alleyway in total despair and desperation as he collapsed to his knees in tears.
- PLEASE!!!!PLEASE!!!I WILL DO ANYTHING!!!!!JUST HELP ME SAVE MY PARENTS!!!!ANYTHING!!!I WILL DO ANYTHING TO SAVE MY PARENTS!!!!PLEASE!!!!PLEASE!!!WON'T SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!!!Han yelled before he burried his head in his hands and crouched down to the ground.
Then the air turned cold as a hot breeze blew through the four way cross alleyway.
- I can help you. A dark,whispery voice said and Han looked up from his hands.

And then the alley way was filled with black flames.


Theme: #18 Wipe
The scene disappeared into the R of RLA and Han stood beside Ron and cheered him up.

- 10 minutes. Then,we might learn more.

Theme: #18 Wipe
Han stood beside his parent's hospital bed,tears running down his cheeks as the lamps lit up the Rla logo and the scene returned through the R of RLA.

Chapter ThirtyFour:
Then and Now.

Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 2 - Pride
A desperate looking eight year old with black hair and almost black eyes hurried through the alleys of Oom-Baan-Diin.
- HAN!!!!!HAN!!!!!The young boy yelled, fear and worry hanging of each and every syllable.
- HAN!!!!!!!The boy stopped in a pathway.
- HAN!!!!!DON'T DO ANYTHING DESPERATE!!!!HAN!!!!!!!!The boy yelled in fear and quickly went down another alley way.
- DON'T DO ANYTHING FOOLISH!!!!YOU CAN'T HELP THEM IF YOU ARE DEAD!!!!!!!PLEASE!!!!!HAN!!!!!!WHERE ARE YOU!!!!!!?????The boy yelled as he continued to quickly run through the nocks and cranks of the city.
- HAN!!!!!!!WHERE ARE YOU!!!!!?!The boy yelled before he turned around a corner and froze in the middle of his tracks.
There, in the middle of a four road connection, right in the center laid a black haired twelve year old boy. His clothes where scorched and burned.
He was curled up into a ball, his eyes were closed.
But what made the young boy freeze was the rest of him.
His entire backside, from his back to the back of his arms and legs were horribly burnt. The flesh was black and spots of red were everywhere. Crimson covered the black burned skin and crimson leaked out of the red spot.
The boy, thou barely consious was still in a visible amount of terrible pain with 12 burn marks in his chest and body on the front, looking like he was shoot by a gun.
But it wasn't only that sight that had stopped the young boy in his tracks, it was what was surronding him.
Black flames.

Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 3 - 16. The Day the Sun Disappeared
Black flames emitting a white aura and a heat that was so hot that it was cold. And the cold was so cold that it burned.
It was everywhere in the alley.
- HAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The boy yelled in desperation and ran as fast as possible up to the barely consious Han.
- HAN!!!!!HAN!!!!ARE YOU ALRIGHT!!!!SAY SOMETHING!!!!!!HAN!!!!!!!!HAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!The boy yelled desperatly and tried to pick up Han's head and craddel what he could in his arms.
- Flame........Han muttered weakly.
- What?! What did you say?! Ron said in confusion and shock.
- Black.......Flame.......Han muttered in great pain and agony, crying tears that broke the boy's heart to see and it seemed like it hurt Han to cry.
- Ron.......Ronald?......Han said weakly and tiredly with a half opened eye.
- Yes!It's me Han, It's me!Ron said reassuring.
- Flame......Black Flame.......Kiria.......Kiria Hono.......The Black Flame.......Han said weakly before he clutched Ron tightly.
- Wha-what?What did you say?!Who or what?!Ron said in panic as he looked around the place.
The place was surronded in by black flames.
Of in the distance, Ron thought he saw a demonic figure standing there and watching.
On a nearby wall, written in white sut was a single word. BANG.
Ron clutched the now unconsious Han tightly and gritted his teeths.
- Black Flame. Ronald Moran said with pure hatred dripping from the two words like poison as he clutched Han Kieseli tightly.

Han was brought back to the hospital,this time as a patient instead of a visitor and was almost immediatly moved to the intensive treatment because of his severe and almost fatal burns.
His mother passed away while he was in treament.

The next morning,after one of many heal gel baths,Ron visited Han in the hospital.
He laid curled in his hospital bed,crying.
Ron made his presence known,but stayed quiet.
Now they were both alone.



Oom-Baan-Diin: District E: Commoner's Quarters.

Ronald Moran,28 years old.
Han Marren,32 years old.

Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 2 - 11. Daylight in Amestris
As the sun began to set down below the mountains,Han,Ron,Antz-o-in and Robin were walking through the streets of District E.
They had just checked out Ron and Shean from the hospital,thou Shean decided to go back home and rest up a bit instead of joining them.
After having said their goodbye's to The Stone Hengers,the four left District H and headed towards District E were Han lived.
Robin had already disconnected from the light,making his hair brown as Zander reported that he was ready to take control when the sun went down below the mountains.
The four walked through the district in relative silence.
The events in the morning,during the day and last night still weighting heavily on them all.
The fact that The Allies of Justice had not only lost one member to the reaper,but one had just left them was not lost to any of them.
And Ron and Shean had come pretty close to following Ramroth on his way to the heavens.
Han reached out his hand and stopped them,pulling out his keys and opening his home door.
And was immediatly tackeld by an excited young girl.
Theme: Full Metal Alchemist OST 1 - Favorite Daughter
- DADDY!!!Elizabeth yelled excited and exploded into a fit of giggels as Han swung her around.
- Elizabeth!My sweet little girl!What a nice little welcome!Han said overjoyed as he twirrled around,swinging Elizabeth around in the frontyard as Robin,Zander and Ron could only watch dumpfounded.
- Umm.......Zander said,trying to regain his senses.
- Don't question it. Just let it pass......Ron said as both Han and Elizabeth exploded into a shower of hearts and wet kisses.
- Ummmmmm........Zander said stumped.
- It will pass......Eventually....Robin said from the side.
- Are you sure that this guy is sane? Zander asked as Han threw Elizabeth high up into the air with a united WEEEEEEEE and caught her before swinging around and tossing her up again,all while Gabriel watched from the open doorway,chuckling at her husband's antics.
- I take it back. Are you sure that this whole family is sane? Zander said,trying to regain his mind.
Robin and Ron shrugged and walked up to Gabriel and greeted her.
But just when they did,Han seemed to notice her and caught Elizabeth without even looking.
- Hmmm.....Elizabeth,meet your new uncel. He lives inside of Uncle Antz-o-in and his name is Zander. Han said,the next second,Elizabeth shoot through the air like a bullet with a loud WEEEEEEE and hit Zander straight in the chest as Han blasted past Ron and Robin and tackeld Gabriel with his love.
Leaving the two covered in dust on the ground as Zander saw stars as Elizabeth giggeld and laughted.

Chapter ThirtyFive:
To sell ones soul.

Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 2- What Lies Beneath
After the dinner was done,Han sent Elizabeth early to bed and as Gabriel was doing the dishes,the men went to the living room.
Now here they were.
Han and Ron sat in the sofa closest to the wall and Robin and Zander sat in the sofa facing them.
- Earlier today,you said that all these recent deaths were people who had "contracts",who all expired today. And that Black Flame is a contracter and a dealer. We asked the other detectives and they all connected the dots and said that your theory ran true once they had checked the fact. Now,they all acted like we already knew what the hell a Contracter and a Contract is. But the fact is,we don't. Zander stated matter of factly with the dark sky rumbling by his annoyance.
- So I ask,what is a Contract? Robin asked frimly,yet curiously.
Han and Ron took a steadying breath each before they started.
Theme: Full Metal Alchemist OST 1 - Taboo
- It is a taboo. It is a sin. It is forbidden. It is one of the worst things you can do on this planet. Ron said darkly,his voice turning into a snarl at the end.
Han sighed before he looked at Robin and Zander with incredibly sad eyes.
- You basically sell your soul. Han said simply.
- WHAT?!Zander roared.
- You sell your soul in reward with power. Ron continued.
- A Contract is a Deal struck with a Deman who is a Dealer,somebody who can offer their services for various deals and rewards. A Contracter is a Deman who has done a Deal with somebody. Han explained gravely.
- You make a contract with a Deman and your life is in it's hands while it's life is in yours. The Deman can transform into you without taking your soul and turn you to ashes,while you obtain some of it's powers. A Contract is a finished Deal. If the Contracter dies before the Contract is complete,the one who it has a contract becomes a Deman who lives to fullfill both sides of the bargin.Ron said darkly.
Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 3 - 04. Ante Meridiem
- If the one contracted dies,the contracted will take the Contracter with him.But Contracts work both ways. The Contracted can use the contract to gain some of the Demen's powers,but as you have seen,The Contracter can use the Contracted to aid itself. Han said grimly.
- Either way,even if the Contracted may not think so,it has already sealed it's fate as a Deman's powers are poisonous. It may be slow,but the longer the contract takes,the longer the power remains inside of the Contracted,eventually turning them into Contracters aswell. No matter what,in the end,the Contracted is usually an even worse Deman then the Contracter. Ron finished.
Han let out a sigh.
- Once a Deman Contract is completed,the Contracter grows in strength and by that point,the Contracted will be to far gone to be saved and usually becomes a Deman that follows te Contracted around as some sort of bodyguard. The two companions having a Soul Contract with the other,tying their life together. And the worse thing about Soul Contracted Demens is that you can't tell them from regular people. And from what I have seen,there is a big chance that Black Flame is the strongest Contracter of them all and all those that died today had a Soul Contract with him which he pulled in to heal himself. And from what he told me,when Black Flame makes a Soul Contract with someone,he becomes that person. Ron said darkly,finishing the tale,leaving the room in a heavy silence.

Theme: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OST 2 - Nocturne of Amestris ~Duet~
- Wellllll.......That's one way to completely ruin the mood after a nice and friendly dinner with a loving family....Han said and broke out into a small chuckle at the end.
- Thank......Thank you for informing us about contracts......Robin said plainly,looking like he was better of not knowing about contracts.
- Damn......Well.......That was something else. Zander said as he stood up from the sofa.
- I think it is time we took our leave. Ron said with a heavy sigh and stood back up.
- I'm sorry I asked about contracts. Robin said dreary as he stood up and went to the entrence hall and grabbed his long coat as Zander did the same.
- Well, thank you for dinner Han. Ron said as he walked past Robin and Zander.
- Thanks for the company,you guys are always welcome to eat here whenever you want. Han said friendly as he waved the three off.

Later.

Theme: Bionicle Music - The Red Star
Han stood alone in his shower,letting the cascade all over.
All while Ron's words echoed through his mind.
- It is a taboo. It is a sin. It is forbidden. It is one of the worst things you can do on this planet.
Han lowered his head as he started massaging his shoulder.
- You basically sell your soul.
His own words echoed as a tear joined the water trinkling down his face.
- You sell your soul in reward with power.
Ron's words echoed back.
Han lowered his head and cried as a contract burned on his skin.

And the curtain dropped.

Theme: 烈車戦隊トッキュウジャー「烈車戦隊トッキュウジャー」8bit
The curtain opened and
R.L.A.
Stood on a black door.
COME ON LETS GO!
The door was flung open and a figure began to run.
Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Keep on!
The figure ran through the city and the camera flew past the running figure,through street,through the crowd,out through the city and through the gates of the city.
Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Go on!Move on!
The camera flew through the land,past the hills,over the mountains,across the road and over the vast fields until it reached the end of the land where Robin stood with his back turned away from the camera,looking over towards the dark horizon on the edge of the cliff.
- Beyond this everlasting darkness.
Robin stood looking out towards the setting sun in the horizon with a soft smile.
- I am sure that there is hope.
The camera flew backwards to the running person that was Antz-o-in as he ran through the streets of Oom-Baan-Diin.
- So come on,lets go there.
Antz-o-in ran past Yao Lee,Lin Rin and Tho Rin at a reasturant that where pasta,rise and soup but when they saw Antz-o-in run past them smilling, they stood up,paid the bill,took their weapons and joined Antz-o-in on the run.
- Come on and join us as we travel to where no one has ever been before.
Antz-o-in ran past Han and his family that where about to take a family photo,but when he saw Antz-o-in run he gave the camera to Gabriella and joined Antz-o-in.
- Never question yourself as the only road is the road ahead.
Antz-o-in ran past a cafee were Ron and Shean where just about to kiss,but when they saw Antz-o-in,they quickly joined.
- We stand together so never lose hope in yourself and just KEEP ON!!
Antz-o-in ran past the blacksmith where Hayir was sharpening his blade,but when he saw Antz-o-in he quickly grabbed it from the sharpening wheel and joined the fun.
- MOVE ON!And remember that you are not alone in this wide world!
Antz-o-in and co ran through the gate and Ramroth spotted them from the wall and quickly jumped up into the air and shoot down to them and joined them.
- Come on lets see what you got!Never stop!
Antz-o-in looked behind him and smilled as he saw all his friends running behind him and then turned back to the road ahead and increased his speed as he ran towards the horizon where he could see Robin standing on the edge of the cliff as the sun was setting.
- Never miss a beat!Together we are strong! Together we face the world! We face the world together!Together as one!Together as all!
Robin turned around and his smile turned into a big grin and he laughed as he waved everyone over.
- Life is an adventure so make everything you got of each day!
Antz-o-in broke out into a big grin and waved as he ran even faster followed by the resgt of The Allies of Justice quickly behind.
- Life is an adventure!Come on and join us because Today is and adventure!
Robin laughed as Antz-o-in came up next to him and looked at either side of himself and saw Ron,Shean,Han,Ramroth,Lin Rin,Tho,Yao and Hayir standing on either side,smiling back to him.
- Beyond the horizon is an adventure!This is an adventure!
Robin and everyone else turned around and watched the sun set in the distant horizon.
- This is Robin Lightwalker's Adventures!!!
Theme: Tokusou Sentai DEKARANGER - Synthesia [HD]

- The next day is upon us and with new knowledge in hand,Robin and the remaining Allies of Justice starts to divulge into the infor,ation that Ramroth died for.

- Secrets become clear as truths are learned as the past catches up to the present.

- Secrets are revealed and one dangerous truth comes into light as another mystery unfolds.

Next Case: Seperate Destinations. Case 36: When friends part ways.

Open your heart. Solving the mystery!


And now we return to your regularly sheduled dark angst trip down mystery lane in a universe that should be ALOT happier and over the top then it actually is.

In other words, RLA is back and now,it is in 2015.

And fittingly enough,the year starts with a slow,but interesting Down episode as The Flames of Hatred ark continues with a time to breath for the characters.

But by the sounds of things,the next week is the time to weep.

But that is next week. This week,we open the year nice and easy in an episode that deals with what happened during the fights of the last few episodes and start asking questions.

And yes,I just realise that I just retconned Han's and Ron's backstory a bit,but I originally intended for their to be a 4 year difference between them,not a two,plus I think I stated earlier then their first flashback their current time ages,so for Ron to be 10 while Han was 12 didn't make sense for a 4 year difference,now that is fixed.

Either way,the next week,secrets are revealed.

See you then.

Bye.

I liked this. expanding on the contracts okay. still hate the way it was presented before hand but, it fits well here so I cant really pick at it. it seems more like if the former case happened before the battle, it would make more sense.
