"Alright, could I go find something else to do?" Lawrence asked Dalk.

[Jcnator]

"Dont be selfish Lawrence, if you go I have to accompany you and leave James here." Dalk said. "Why don't you tell us about you?"

[King Acunasti]

"What about me?" Lawrence asked.

[Jcnator]

"Tell us something about you." Dalk said.

Meanwhile at the hotel the phone rang for Mario.

[Duh]

Mario yawned as he answered the phone. "Hello?" he said.

[King Acunasti]

"What you wanna hear my life story?" Lawrence said with a laugh. "It's a damn long story, friend. I'll tell you if you want, but you'll definitely think less of me."

Lawrence suddenly became very serious. "I haven't led a very righteous life."

[Jcnator]

"Hello this is Roy Mustang calling from Ishvala! We are under attack by the mysterious alchemist. I am telling you this so that you don't hear it from anyone else. DO NOT COME TO HELP US! Continue with your current mission." He shouted through the phone. In the back ground explosions could be heard and many soldiers firing closely. "I am ok and so its Lt Hawkeye. Continue with your mission!" He finished and hung up.

Spoiler:

Long post alert, guys.

"Okay," Lawrence began. "So was born in the slums of Central City. My dad was a sick alcoholic who was obsessed with the government, and my mom was a mentally ill nut who eventually killed herself when I was a kid. When I was a teenager, a couple of friends and I began raiding military armories and criminal hubs for guns. We started harrassing other local gangs for money. But we just weren't making enough. At some point, we decided to take it a step further. We started robbing banks. We probably robbed around 50 or 60 banks in total. We shot anyone that tried to play the hero without question. You see, my crew wasn't stupid like the guys on the train. We were organized, and we planned our heists months in advance. We always went in prepared."

Lawrence sighed. "I was kinda the de facto leader of the group. People started calling us the 'Blackwell Gang'. We were unstoppable. By the time the State Military would arrive at the various banks, trains, or other locations that we were robbing, my crew and I were already a mile away. But it all ended with our last heist. This heist was gonna be the biggest one yet. I'm talking millions upon millions. This was a crazy load of money. But one of the gang members, Aiken Anwyl, turned rat. He gave every bit of requested information about the heist to the military. I killed the traitor without question. But we still went through with the job. It was stupid, I know. But it was so much money!"

Lawrence paused for a moment. "When my gang and I exited the bank with all of that damn money, there was a huge line of State Mility soldiers waiting there for us. We weren't too fond of giving up, so we pulled out our guns and fired. That gunfight seemed like it lasted for days. We killed a lot of soldiers, but they were just too powerful. Every member of the gang except myself and my best friend, Felix Hodges, was killed. Felix and I finally gave up...but Felix died shortly after because of his wounds. I was sentenced to 446 years in prison, but they brought me out here when the stones were stolen."

"that's... Interesting Lawrence" Dalk said not knowing what to say. The mechanic returned.

"Ok, let's start" he said. Het took of James auto mail, and started putting the new one. "Iam about to attach the nerves. 3, 2, 1!" he attached the automail to James.

[videogmer314]

"Gah!" James had forgotten just how much attaching automail hurt, and so he wasn't entirely ready for the shock of pain. He was jolted awake, and he had also remembered something important. "I probably should have told you this before you attached the arm, but I need you to engrave a transmutation circle in the palm of its hand."

[Jcnator]

"Ugh, you should have told me that before..." The machanic said. "It is the one in your other automail right?"

[videogmer314]

"Yes, that's the one," James responded, not looking forward to having something engraved into his automail after it had been connected to his body.

[Jcnator]

"I am not much of an artist but I will try..." the mechanic said. Slowly but safe he carved the transmitaion circle on James hand. "it's done" he said. Dalk paid the mechanic. "recomend me to your friends" he said as you leave

[videogmer314]

"Thank you," James said to the mechanic as he left the back room. He showed Dalk his new arm. "I think we're ready to go now."

[Jcnator]

"Ok lets head back to the hotel." Dalk said.

[videogmer314]

James put his coat back on. "Let's go, then."

[Jcnator]

The group returned back to the hotel to meet Mario.
"Do you have any news Mario?" Asked Dalk.

[Duh]

"Yes." Mario replied. "Mustang and Hawkeye are currently being attacked by the mysterious alchemist in Ishvala. That's all he said before hanging up."

[videogmer314]

"Did he say why they were in Ishvala in the first place, or whether they need backup or not?"

[Jcnator]

"Ishval is a very unstable region. After what happens a few years ago, you know the Ishvalan massacare. Relationship with that part of Amestris has been bad, Mustan has been doing everything he can to solve that." Dalk paused. "what did he instruct us to do?" he continued.
