Roy Mustang X Riza Hawkeye

Edward lay hollow and sad at the border of Amestris, onlooking at the great nation of Drachma.

"How I wish I could be so powerful!" said Ed with an irritated tone.

Winry rolled her eyes at the greed of her husband.

Are you okay sir? Shouted Riza.

Roy was impaled by the spectral spear of a Drachman warrior.

He flinched as he took out the barbed metal rod, and immediately sealed it with fire.

Ri-Riza, Run! Save yourself!

No Colonel! I refuse to leave your side!

Mustang looked into Riza's eyes, and saw not the eyes of a hawk, but the eyes of a soul that put others before them. His heart felt a sharp pang of nostalgia as he realized how much his lieutenant cared for him. His hard heart started to melt, the agony of decades disappearing with a gaze into the soul.

The Drachman warriors charged.

Roy knew what he had to do.

He made a diamond wall around Riza with his alchemy, and went on to face the Drachman warriors.

He didn't even look back, after all that's happened between us. Riza thought quietly, for the universe would not forgive her if it heard her.

Just one last look, why can't I? I'm going to face these Drachman guys anyways, one last look, please Mustang, please! Roy scolded himself as he found himself in the middle of the battlefield.

Well now, no looking back anymore. Roy reassured himself with a heavy heart.

The truth smiled upon them, and their future together.
