Do not own Fullmetal Alchemist, or Cold's song "Gone Away" o.o;
Enjoy! And it's hard to write a sad story when you're not depressed o.o;;
GONE AWAY
-Do you pray in the night?
-Can you appreciate the wind?
Edward Elric sat on the window sill, gazing distantly at his sillouette reflection.
His golden eyes, still and emotionless.
-And I won't care, I won't fight
He felt tragic and broken, like a thrown-away ragdoll.
-I need you close to sing
-It's the same beginning
A broken doll didn't describe his feeling.
Ed felt alienated, like garbage, like his brother.
He clutched the automailed fingers into a balled fist.
-Gone Away
-It's the same old, same old song
-Gone away
-It's my whole life in words
"Alphonse.."
His brother's name escaped his quivering lips.
"Where are you?"
He should of never said those things to him.
-And I can't breathe when you cry
-But I'll be there you hold you tight
-And I would kill, I would fight
A distant memory covered in mold.
-To keep you close
Ed wrapped his clothed arms around his knees and laid his head down, burrowing deep.
He began to sniffle.
-I keep singing the same way
-I won't live if you died
-If I can feel you in the wind
His shoulders began to tremble as he soon began to cry.
Melancholy tears swoon his red-cloaked arm, staining it with salt.
-And this is me, it's my life
-I'll need you close
-It's the same beginning
The guilt was like opium through his veins.
The flashbacks began to play back in his clouded thoughts, the grief unbearable.
-Gone away
-It's the same old, same old song
-Gone away
-It's my whole life in words
Looking back at his reflection, Edward wiped his dreaded tears away and coughed on his sniffling.
He took the flashlight from his pocket and flashed it into the window.
Almost like a S-O-S signal.
-Gone away
-It's the same old, same old song
-Gone away
-It's my whole life in words
Minutes of flashing, he gave up, knowing his brother would never come back.
Not after what he said.
Ed got up and walked out the door.
-And I can't say, and I don't know
-How far I'll go
He came to the front door to the outside world. His eyes still emotionless.
Tattered and torn. Broken. Empty.
"Edward!" someone called.
He looked up, staring straight forward into the rain in front of him.
Standing erect and still, stood an armored man.
Fullmetal's golden eyes lit up.
"Al..AL!"
He ran and tightly hugged the iron man, balling with tears.
-And I can't say, and I don't know
-How far I'll go
"Al, I'm so sorry! I never meant to say those things! On Mother's grave, I swear I'll never do or say anything mean to you again!"
The Fullmetal Alchemist clutched his armored brother and cried.
Harder than ever.
-Gone away
-It's the same old, same old song
-Gone away
-It's my whole life in words
Al calmly wrapped his metal arms around the small alchemist, conforting him.
"Shh..It's all right now, Brother. I'm here now.."
