She looked at him, the corners of her mouth twitching downward. She felt like she should at least thank him or something, but decided against it. It would've made what happened at the cafe seem too real, and right now she just wanted to forget about it.
Ayumi shrugged her shoulders, dismissing her thoughts. "With that attitude, there's no way in hell you're becoming a state alchemist." Grinning a little bit, she offered a scarred hand towards him. "Ayumi. Ayumi Arumatsu."

Redrick smirked slightly as he embraced her hand with his own and shook it once. It was warm compared to his hand, soft and inviting in a way. Wonderful, now comes the fun question on what to do in order to get the help I need?
Redrick drops his hand from hers and shuts his eyes thinking for a few seconds. He opens them to meet her's once more as he turns his head forward smirking to match her smile. "So what, am I going to get a pick me up speech or am I going to get some help as to how to get a physically incapable doctor to pass a soldiers course." Come to think of it... how am I supposed to outmatch a bunch of jar head alchemist who are trained to kill?

She shrugged again. "I'll help you, I guess." She jerked her head in the direction of the street, beckoning him to follow her, and started heading down the street.
"The next state alchemist exam is at the end of the month. You've got a lot to do by then," she mumbled, thinking to herself.

Redrick fallowed her attentively "at the end of the month" he shrugged "well it looks like making me stronger or faster is out of the question, so how do you suppose I keep up with the competition?"
He turned down a corner that she disappeared into. If I cannot out do them, I must out smart... But what do I know that they don't?

"It's not about being stronger or faster than everyone else - it's about impressing the higher-ups. Show them something they haven't seen before, and they'll have no choice but accept you." She stopped at the end of the alley she had walked into and turned to face him, leaning against the wall. "What exactly can you do again?"

Redrick looked upon and sighed as if almost ashamed of what he was going to say. "I am a Biochemical alchemist, I have extensive knowledge of human and animal anatomy." Redrick leans against the wall and looks down at his boots "tissue, blood, bone and gene manipulation." Redrick looks up at her "I also know a little electrical and metal alchemy as well."

"Biochemical..." Ayumi scratched the back of her head. She didn't like the sound of that, not after hearing about the Sewing Life Alchemist and his biochemical-based alchemy. The idea of manipulating the very body into something perverse and dangerous made shivers go down her spine. "Okay. Show me something. Impress me."

Redrick sighed as he kicked off the wall and walked over to his duffel bag. Come on, think impressive and lethal something that she hasn't seen before... Redrick Reached his hand in and pulled out a jar of white powder and a flask filled with iron bits. he then opened up the right side of his black lab coat to reveal that it was laced with dozen's of pre-made alchemical seals. He wrapped one around his hand and then poured the content's of the vial and jar out.
Redrick took a deep breath in as he punched his fist into to the mixture, alchemical energy swarmed around his arm as the ingredients crawled up it. They mixed with each other and merged around the arm and made what looked like a black skeletal gauntlet that had a scimitar fallowing his forearm. "You see with bone dust and Iron fragments I can tender any calcium based product into a substance that matches the durability that of carbon-steel. It is also put into an unbelievably sharp edge given that it can naturally be angled and changed due to the privacy powder form, not to mention it is naturally lighter and allows me to make small spring action mechanisms within the item itself." Redrick extended his arm and presented it to her hoping that it at least showed some promise.

Ayumi's eyes widened as the transmutation took place. "Cool! she breathed, forgetting her formal air. She bounced forward and leaned close to the gauntlet, poking it as if to see if it was even real. "Very cool. I like it." She ran her finger down the length of it, feeling the material. "Very clean transmutation too. Calcium-based, you said? Yeah, that'll be good on the battlefield." She imagined him in the midst of a war, twisting the bones of the dead into deadly weapons, it'd be pretty useful. Or, even better (or worse, depending on how you look at it), mutilating the living, killing them with their own bodies.

He smiled lightly at her joy he then began opening his hand to reveal that it was a full and functional guantlet up to his elbow. "Well it is a actualy pretty good for that I suppose, though I would rather hate to have to fight against guns." He began transmuting the meterials back into their jars. "But I suppose it has its advantages, but I dont think I will be lucky enough to always have a body around." He sighs thinking to himself "infact in order for me to do anything I would need something that I could siphon bone, blood, muscle, and other tissues from in order for me to be of any use whatsoever."
He places the lid on the jar of dust and corks the flask of Iron. Redrick opened eyes thinking aloud "I would need something fallowing me that had more then enough of what I needed, something that could hit harder, faster then I ever could... but what?" Redrick glanced down thinking as he absent mindedly began putting the ingredients into his duffel bag. I wounder, could I do it... is it possible, would it be enough if I did it? Redrick looked up at Ayumi with a half smirk "how am I supposed to show them what I can do, I mean that trick was just scratching the surface, but I highly doubt I want or would running around transmuting people for this exam."
