You were sitting with Al and Ed on the steps to the Central command center. You could kind of blanked out, into your own world. You could only regained consciousness of what it happened when Edward suddenly stood up beside you. He was yelling "we're humans! We can't even save one little girl." He then stop shouting, and said in an empty sort a voice... deprived of sarcasm, rage, cockiness... And replaced with grief, sadness, and mourning. "We're just pathetic human being's...!" It was then that you realized Colonel Roy Mustang who was saying "go home and rest. I'll catch a cold out in this rain." Tears came to your eyes again, but you blink them back. Not wanting to show the scarce weak side of you. Yet, over at the Tucker a state... Something even worse was happening. A dark skinned man, an X shaped scar on his forehead... Was demanding entrance. The guards try to reason with him, but there was no way they could. With his right hand cleansing, he said "I'm going through" he been killed the bodyguards in cold blood, leaving them to be discovered on the side of the street, imploded. This dark skinned man it, he started walking up the stairs of the Tucker estate, to where Nina and Tucker were sitting. Tucker's glasses were cracked, and he had to put bandages on from where you and Ed hurt him. The man with the scar on his four head walked into the room just as a flash of lightning came. He asked "are you Shou Tucker?" Tucker replied "who are you?" The Mateka steps forward. Tucker asked "what do you want with me? You're not... Not... With the army." His voice then filled with fear "How did you get in! How did you get in!? There were guards outside!" The man seem to have enough of tucker's blabbering, and said "alchemist to a stray from the path of God... Must die!" He cracked his knuckles, and then placed his hand on Tucker's face. Alchemist to a stray from the path of God... Must die!" He cracked his knuckles, and then placed his hand on Tucker's face. A burst of blue light filled the room, then suddenly... Blood exploded from the man's head. It went everywhere, and it tuckers body felt lifeless onto the floor. The Chimara started whimpering. It clumsily walked over to tuckers body, and sniffed it a few times. Repeating the same word "Daddy..... Daddy........ Dad-dy..." The man looked down at the Chimara. He said "... How awful. Now that he's done this to you, there's no way to change it back to normal. At the very least, go in peace." A large batch of thunder than rumbled overhead. Nina had now died. The most gruesome way possible. It was raining even harder now. As the man left the tuckers estate, he said a silent prayer. "My Lord. Lord God, who created everything in this world... two souls have now return to your side. Please take pity on them... And ground them forgiveness and peace in your loving embrace." He took off his glasses slowly, revealing red eyes. Bye now, you were all back in bed. Trying to rid yourself of this terrible memory. You simply could not fall asleep... Even though ad was out. His breathing In piffs, and whimpering slightly. Eventually, he woke up with the staet, a huge gasp. Al turned his helmet to look at him, but do you want me other hand... You ran up to him, and hug him close to your body. Letting him blink back tears, and regain his breathing, while leaning on you for support. In the morning, the storm is still going on. You were all at the military base. Looking up at Colonel mustangs door. You were about to ask what happened to Nina and Alexander. Edward then spent away from the door. Leaving you want to Alfons to follow him. You then heard a voice behind you. It was the voice of a female, Lieutenant Hawkeye to be precise. She had said "Edward, (y/n)!" you both turned to look at her. "Hi, first lieutenant Hawkeye." you said gloomily. She asked " what are you doing here so early?" You replied stupidly "Uhm.... Uh..." Ed then stepped in. " we wanted you to know... What's going to happen to Tucker and Nina?" Riza had explained all that had happened with the whole Tucker, Nina, Chimera case. She wouldn't let you tag along, saying it was too gruesome. This time you couldn't hold back. You burst into tears, and Edward comforted you by holding your hands, and flashing you one of those devious grins you always loved. How he was able to muster one of those just for your benifit..... But... You had decided to go moping again. This time, by the clock tower. you sounds similar to how Edward was. Your head down, and your hands resting on your knees. Alphonse was the first to speak. He said "big brother?" At your plied "Ha? Oh... My head is just so full that I don't know what to think right now... Since last night i've been wondering what this alchemy that we trusting really is..." You said as if you were reading out of the textbook "alchemy is the reconstruction of matter in new forms based on the knowledge of natural laws" Edward then said hopelessly "this world flows by obeying these laws. Death, too, is a part of that flow. Except the flow of the world. Artesia really be that into us. I thought I knew what she meant. But I didn't. That's why mom..." you Sucked your breath in. This was always a touchy subject, because she was like a second mother you lost. Ed continued on. " and that's why I'm wondering what I can do about something that nobody can fix. Four. I haven't thrown up at all since then. I thought that the rain would wash away all my doubts... But all I know is that this rain on my face is starting to bug me." You wanted dearly to hug him, reassure him that everything would be alright, but you knew he would just shove you Away. Al then remarked on how he can't feel the rain colliding with his metal body, hie he seems trapped within his own metal body. How he feels lonely, and how he wants to be human again. Even if it means going against te flow of the world. Some idiot guard then shouted out yours and Ed's names. The same man who had been the cause of Tucker and Nina's death was right behind him. He knew everything, how you were in the military, how you were a state alchemist... And how you were "evil". Your brain told your legs to move, but it just refused. It was bad. The man... He put his hand up to the guards face, and killed him right on the spot. Blood was everywhere, slowly getting washed away by the rain. But there was no misunderstanding. This man was insane. He started walking towards you three, and you try to move again. One fleeting thought crossed your mind. "I'm going to die." Edward then brought you back to your senses "(y/n)! Run!" Your legs spring into action, you started running... Running for your life. You would think stuff like this is a cliché... But trust me, this is no cliché. It's scary. Skidded into an alleyway, with Edward and Alphonse. Al created a transmutation circle, and sealed up the entrance to the alleyway. You thought that this would hold him, and all three of you were coming graduating yourselves on the brilliant plan... When the little wall started to break. first, it was a small crack. Then, the whole walking crumbling down. You sucked and your breath again, and this time... He placed his right hand on the building. It started to crack, and then the whole wall caved in. "Just got to befirst, it was a small crack. Then, the whole walking crumbling down. You sucked and your breath again, and this time... He placed his right hand on the building. It started to crack, and then the whole wall caved in. "youve got to be kidding me" Ed mumbled under his breath it with you, Al, Ed, a pile of rubble, and the man with the X shaped scar. The man said in a voice, filled with death " there are those who create... And those who destroy." States I went for a bit, but then Ed clapped his hands. He then layed them on a convinient pipe, and transformed it into a dagger. Al held up his fists in a fighting stance, and you simply stayed back, being backup. The man mumbled "you're not afraid.." The boys then charged. Slashing at them with everything they gor. The man ducked all of their, saying "but you're slow!" His right hand had gotten onto Alphonse's armour. It had deconstructed the right side of his armor. Ed's eyes became clouded with Fear. "Al!" He then turned to the man, rage in his voice "YOU SON OF A—-" the man geabbed Ed's right hand. He said clearly "I said you're too slow!" A light appeared. ed was blown backwards with the force the explosion. He tumbled a bit, cursing. He tore his coat from his body, making you blush. Oh how sexy he looked when he did that. His auto mail arm was now showing. He had cursed again. "Dammit!" The man muttered to himself "auto mail... It's no wonder my body disrupting attack had no effect. And... I was planning to strip of his armor before I destroy him, but there's nothing inside... Strange pair... Just taking longer than I thought... Even without the exception of this little girl here." Edward had clapped his hands again, this time transmuting his arm into a blade. You knew where this was going to end... Didn't wanted to happen. You stretch out your right arm, yelling for Edward, pleading for him To take your advice, and run. But... You knew it was hopeless even trying. He would loose.
