   Fanfic time!
Well, well! My first fanfic post! No, wait... this the 2nd... ah well! It's Miracle's story, Enferius! (manga version). Why the manga vers? 'Cause it's easier to write *gets showered with random stuff* Ok, Ok! It's more of a resumé of Mira's story than the actual thing. This mini-fanfic starts by vol. 14, chap. 56, and continues as flashbacks.
After the fight against "Father", Edward is suspicious of Miracle for her personality has changed rather greatly. He asked her "Who are you?"... Enjoy!!^^

Who am I?
Memories of a tormented Angel

"Who are you?". The question is rather simple. If it is that simple, why can't I answer it? Why do I have to think about it, when it's so obvious? Who am I? I'm Inez Milagros Anderson-Rivera. I keep repeating that in my mind, convinced that I am Inez, and yet... I doubt. I doubt my identity, my being, I even doubt my existence. A war began to stir inside my mind, fighting to find the truth, to find my true self. It was all caused by a small, simple question, asked by an alchemist named Edward Elric, the Fullmetal Alchemist. And so, began my quest to find my real identity.

By the time I arrived at Riza's appartement, the grey sky began to cry its cold tears. Getting in, I went up the stairs to the second floor. Riza's room was the first door on the right. I went in and closed the door after Matteus and Nicodemus got in. As usual, Black Hayate, Riza's dog, ran towards me. I petted him and then took off my coat. I called out Riza's name, but only had silence as my reply. I figured that she was still working at Headquarters. I went to our room to change. I put on my pyjamas which consisted of a short short and a light tanktop. It was rather early for me to wear my pj's as I was hours away from nightfall. I slipped on a simple collar shirt to dissimulate my odd outfit. I headed to the kitchen to have a light snack. Opening the frigde, I took out the milk and then a glass. As I drank the opaque liquid, Edward's image suddenly appeared in my mind. I set down the half-full glass on the table. The blonde boy's question invaded my mind yet again. I stared at the glass as if wondering if I would find the answer there. How ridiculous. One insignificant question has made a mess out of my mind, my logic. My sight drifted to the bracelet that encercled my left wrist. I looked deeply into the crimson gem as it reflected my image. I lost myself in my deep, deep thoughts. Who am I, really? That sentenced poppped over and over again, it started to fill me with rage. Who am I? I'm Inez Milagros Anderson-Rivera. No, that's not true. But then, who am I? Please... somebody help me find out who I trully am! Please... before this doubt tears me apart!

I stormed to my room and slammed the door behind. My strenght had closed the door so hard, it bounced and opened again. I sat on my bed, hugging my knees while burying my face in them. My eyes closed tight, my hands curled angrily into fists. Who am I? The Enferius began to glow due to my rising rage. Who am I? I clutched my head. Who are you? I'm Inez Milagros! No... you're lying. Just as I was going to finally explode, a voice stopped me from doing so.

"Is something wrong?" I shot my head up and turned to the door way. He might been in shadow because of the light behind him, but I recognized Matteus right away. My eyes fell to the floor, concern washing my face and looked away to the window. I watched as the raindrops slidded down the crystal, almost as if it was crying. "Is something bothering you?" Matteus asked again.

"No... not... really" I trailed, not looking back at him.

"It is useless to lie to me. It is obvious that something is tormenting you". I frowned. I let out a sigh and stared out the window, to the lamenting sky.

"Matteus?" The chimera perked his ears at the mention of his name, "Who am I?" Matteus quickly knew what I was talking about.

"I thought you knew who you were when you answered the boy's question. Why do you think of it again?"

"Because... I doubt what I said back then" I said, "'my name is Inez Milagros Anderson-Rivera' was my reply to his question, but now that I think about it more thouroughly, I'm doubting that I am indeed that person" There was a thick silence in the room, until Rivera broke it.

"Only you can find the answer to the question. Go back into your memories, far back, when it all began. Maybe then, you will find who you trully are" with that said, the dog creature turned and walked out of the room. I kept staring at the doorway, considering Matteus' advice. To go back... to where it all began... I closed my eyes, and went back in time... but not exactly where it all began, but... where it all ended... when my world fell apart...

To be continued...
