"Now then, maybe you've had a change of heart! What say you Mustang!?" Asked the man in glasses as he laughed after seeing Riza getting her neck slashed open.
"Y-You bastard! I'll kill you!" Shouted Roy who was enraged.
"Such strong words! What a great way to be sent away!"
"Wait! N-!"
Before Roy could finished speaking, two swordsmen activated the transmutation circle as it began to glow blue before blue sparks appeared.
Roy shouted in agony as he felt his body be ripped apart until he had disintegrated away with the man in glasses smiling.
"Let the games begin."
[Back in Father's Hideout]
Minutes turned into hours as no matter how hard the group of four tried, the force keeping them pinned to the ground was practically impossible to break out of.
After being stuck, red sparks begin to flash above them as then a giant, bright transmutation circle appeared above them
The bright light in the middle eventually subsided as from the middle, Roy had been gently lifted down to the ground by the roof before it returned to normal.
"Colonel!/Uncle Roy!" Shouted both Edward and Alex as the sudden force on them had been lifted as the two immediately rushed to his side followed by Alphonse as Kunsil immediately tried to retaliate but Father gave him a glare that pratically shook him to his core so much that he was frozen with intimidation.
"So he's been brought to me. My fifth." Said Father.
"What the hell did they do to you Colonel!? Come on snap out of it!" Said Ed trying to wake him up.
"You okay Uncle Roy? Say something please." Said Alex.
Roy groaned a bit before he slowly sat up and looked at Alex and then Ed.
"Is that, you kid? Fullmetal your here too? Where, are we?" Asked Roy.
"Some bearded guy's hideout." Said Ed stating at Father.
"What did they do to you to get you here?" Asked Alex.
"They, sent a group of, swordsmen. Ambushed HQ and took down a lot of our men. They, sent me away using a circle. I felt my body, be torn apart and then reassembled. Worst of all, t-they.............cut open Riza neck open, right in front of my eyes." Said Roy.
"W-What!? They got Aunt Riza!?" Shouted Alex as Roy could only nod.
"Well then, it seems the moment of truth is upon us. Don't worry. When I say sacrifices, I don't mean that I'm killing you all. I'm simply gonna use your incredible powers to boost my own so I can reach new heights and surpass god." Stated Father.
"Surpass god? Is this some kind of joke!?" Shouted Ed in response.
"Oh trust me. It isn't a joke. Let's begin shall we?"
Suddenly, five black arms wrapped around the group of five extrmely tightly preventing escape as then they were slammed down.
"I'm done with wasting precious time. It's time to put you too work my precious sacrifices." Said Father.
BGM: Ante Meridiem from FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Above the ground, everyone's attention was drawn to the sky as a solar eclipse was about to happen.
None of the weather forecasts had predicted that this would happen causing it to be the main focus.
People like Akari, all the Black Jacks, the CPUs, and the Valkyries were all drawn to it as it neared completion.
Back in the hideout, Father gave out a maniacal chuckle. "Did any of you ever consider the fact that this planet itself was a lifeform? Actually, it would be more accidental to refer to it as a massive nervous system. One that has retained its memory since it's natural inception and has seen the universe unfold. Just think of the massive quantity of information that such a system can hold, but an even better question. How much power could one gain if they could open that system's gateway? Have you ever considered that? Think about it. Now that I have you all gathered, I shall use you all as sacrifice to open the planet's gateway!" Shouted Father as he yanked the Gamindustri map away from Kunsil as he walked and sat on his throne, placing the map on a table next to him.
Roy tried to snap his fingers, sending flames his away as they bursted into smoke.
They all thought he was hit, until the smole cleaned to see that Father had nullified the attack with just his hand as he laughed loudly.
"The center of the universe, is right here!"
Father smacked his hand onto the map as a red electricity began to flash from it.
As the process began, all five looked down to see that an eye had appeared on them abdomen
Above the hideout, the land began to shake as out of nowhere, the ground was flooded by an ominous dark purple liquid as all four nations, HQ, Kamno, and even the Hyperion had been flooded with it (it looks like this below)
In the hideout, a bubble formed around Father as all the planet's energy was flowing into him.
The five sacrifices began to scream in agony as black mini arms emerged from the eye and attached themselves to Father's bubble increasing his power even more.
Father's laugh only grew more maniacal as the red electricity and land shaking grew more stronger.
"Fight for me! Let your gateways fight for my soul! Shed your energy for me!" Shouted Father. "What truly magnificent energy! Its immensity is indescribable! I can barely contain it!"
Back above ground, the red electricity began to spark in mass all acros Gamindustri causing massive collateral damage everywhere.
"Now that I've obtained enough power, I'll finally open this planet's gateway!" Said Father.
As soon as that was said, all across the entire continent of Gamindustri, giant red laser beams beamed across the entire land, as the following formed over it
Just like in the map, a giant transmutation circle had formed all over Gamindustri.
All the streets and land were basked in an ominous red glow, as from the ground, giant black mist like arms began to rise up towards the sky.
They were only seen for a split second, as pratically every civilian began to faint and pass out onto the ground as all their puny little energies were absorbed.
The CPUs, Black Jacks, and the Valkyries all fell victim and fell onto the ground.
Back at the apartment, goddess of time and Alex's mom Akari, despite all her best efforts, fell onto the ground.
"W-Why, can't I move? What is............happening?" Was all she could ask.
Above, five points of the circle began sparking as from the ground, given bursts of red energy exploded from underground straight up to the sky.
This went on for what felt like an eternity.
That was until, a line formed across the massive circle, as a door was formed
And then
The gateway, had opened.
