A/N: Seriously, I am up at 2 in the morning doing this because I didn't want to forget this idea for the fourth time. I'm taking a small beak for Weekend Update cause I have some other ideas in mind. This is my first song fic and I'm using the Trapt song, Headstrong as a tribute to Ed's fight with Greed. I was inspired by an AMV to do this. Well its anime based BTW. I just using the anime more than the manga, BUT I am reading it.
Disclaimer: I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist or Trapt, I'm just a fan girl making stories. DON'T JUDGE ME!!!!
Circling your, circling your, circling your head,
Contemplating everything you ever said
Now I see the truth, I got doubt
A different motive in your eyes and now I'm out
See you later
I see your fantasy, You want to make it a reality paved in gold
See inside, Inside of our heads (yeah)
Well now that's over
I see your motives inside, decisions to hide
In fighting Greed I never thought it could possibly be like this. He already busted up my automail(which Winry was going to kill me for) and threw across the room and hit my back on the corner of the table. I was trying to think of a way to defeat him when he finally spoke.
"You still don't understand do you? Didn't you say I was a mistake you were going to correct? This is the last time I'm going to say this if you really what to defeat me--", he said
"I best be ready to kill, I know", I replied knowing what had to be done.
"You ready for that kid?", he asked smugly.
I answered the question mentally and then I looked down to my automail and said, "Remind me to thank my mechanic, will ya? Even though it's busted it still functions just fine."At the same time I flexed my fingers like nothing happened to my arm.
Now that my determination was strong I was ready to fight, "Let's go."
Back off I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
Headstrong we're Headstrong
Back off I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong and this is not where you belongI
can't give everything away
I won't give everything away
I'm trying my hardest to defeat him, but all he does is laugh and smirk and it just pisses me off more.
"Your alchemy is worth nothing when you're fighting me"
All I could do was glare at him mentally coming up with an idea
"Now it my turn for fun"
Then he came at me once again.
Conclusions manifest, your first impressions got to be your very best
I see you're full of s**t, and that's alright
That's how you play, I guess you'll get through every night
Well now that's over
I see your fantasy, you want to make it a reality paved in gold
See inside, inside of our heads (yeah) Well now that's over
I see your motives inside, decisions to hide
Then my plan was put into effect, after I met his punch with my transmuted hand his shield began to break down. I found his weakness.
Shocked for the first time since the fight started he said, "What? What the hell is this? What have you done to my shield you little bastard?"
I answered his question with ease, "Its easy when you realize one thing there are no unexplainable events everything results from scientifically measurable actions it's been your precious shield it's been said homunculi have the same body structure as humans on an elemental level and there's a key element that serves to increase the body's hardness and resistance to abrasion. Carbon, it makes up 1/3 of every person. Carbon's degree of hardness can change depending on the strength of its atomic bond it can mean the difference between a diamond and pencil lead. Now that I've learned how to use it, it shouldn't be so tough." I went toward him again.
Back off I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
Headstrong we're Headstrong
Back off I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong and this is not where you belong
I can't give everything away
I won't give everything away
After destroying his shield on his side he collapsed. Hopefully this was the end of it."Now take me to Al"
With all that happened Greed still didn't quit. "Why would I do that if I've haven't lost?"
I still didn't believe he would continue, yet some other part of said 'get ready'. "Don't delude yourself this is over"
He still didn't surrender. "I'm sure your brother could tell you. I don't die so easily"
"Well I guess I'll just have to keep beating you down till you wish you did"
He stood back up ready to fight again. "What a relief I was worried this wouldn't be fun. I feel better for gambling so much on you"
I know, I know all about,
I know, I know all about,
I know, I know all about,
I know, I know all about your motives inside, and your decision to hide
"Let's start it"
"Let's end it!"
We then came at each other for hopefully the last time.
Back off I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
Headstrong we're Headstrong
Back off I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong and this is not where you belong
I can't give everything away
I won't give everything away
I transmuted my arm into my traditional blade and started going after Greed with all the determination I had. With all the twists and turns and flips, I felt like I was flying. When I weakened shield, I aim and made the final strike. When he began to fall, it was then when I realized this fight was finally over. I knew I had to kill to win, but still there's guilt running through my body. As Greed began to melt into nothingness, I just sat thoughtlessly. Then the sun shone through the windows.
A/N: How was it? I spent an hour trying to get the exact dialogue from the episode so be happy for me. I've never written a story this long, I'm proud of myself. Review!!! The more I have the more happier I will be.
Love and peace
