The Scientist

Drabble

Alfons Heiderich was a rocket engineer, a young rocket scientist in the making, following precedent stratagems, calculating theorems, and creating diagrams to achieve his goal of rocket outset, creating things to leave his name behind when his body finally relieves itself of its strength and his last breath escapes him. He loved science as much as the next person did, studying theories of Albert Einstein and Hermann Oberth, drawing out what his image of his study would be. He was smart and talented, as well. His wits had gotten him funding and was helping him achieve the goal that was always there awaiting his arrival. It was waiting for him to grasp it by the end, pull it down and embrace it, never letting it go until his spirit slipped away from his body, leaving mortal life behind and entering the eternity he did not know, nor care to believe it.

He, like Edward Elric, was a scientist and did not rely on religion.
