Chapter 1: Pictures

Roy sat staring out the window of his office at the blue sky. Sighing, he leaned his head against his hand and thought about the moment two years ago when everything changed. Two years ago, he helped the Elrics with the Promise Day and since then everything changed. Ed has gone missing after that and Al returned back to Risembol when the month long search produced nothing. There was no sign of the older sibling anywhere near the city. It was almost as if she was vaporized leaving only her red coat behind. Roy and the others had looked for a month for any sign and any clue but there was nothing. Even Xing has nothing to offer him in way of clues. After that month he and his team were forced to return to Central to continue the search from there and do their other work.

"It's been too many years, Ed." Roy said before turning around to look at the two folders sitting on his desk. One folder, older and more worn out, held the data from a case where an alchemist was stealing the older artifacts and was recently caught. The other one, a newer folder but full, was the newest case to hit his desk. At first it was in the lower ranks as a minor case of missing persons but now it was on his desk. Why? Because there was a total of fifteen young women kidnapped and murdered from Amestris in the last two years, four young women with blond hair and the features that would've matched Ed. The folder held the family pictures and the crime scene pictures of the young women missing and then gone. No clues were ever found at the scenes of who was taking the girls. Nothing.

There was a knock at the door that interrupted his thoughts, bringing him back to reality.

"Sir," Riza Hawkeye greeted his as she opened the door to enter. Even without permission she entered. "There was an envelope dropped off for you at the front desk." She walked in and sat the envelope on the desk in front of him.

"Thank you, Hawkeye. You are dismissed." He replied, taking the envelope in his hands and flipping it over as if it would give him answers to the thoughts circling his brain.

As soon as the door closed behind her, his phone rang on his desk. Glaring at it, he thought 'Are you kidding me?'

"Mustang speaking."

"Hello Brigadier General," a deep voice came on the other end of the phone. "It's so nice to finally speak to you."

"Who are you?" Roy was on edge now, leaning forward on his desk with his eye brows crossed.

"Oh, no one important," the voice laughed. "Although, I do have someone very important with me that you may be interested in seeing again."

"I'll ask again, who are you?"

"You aren't going to get that from me, Mustang. I assured you that but you may have a clue once you open that envelope on your desk."

'Envelope? What's he talking about?' Looking down, he saw the envelope Hawkeye has just handed him before leaving. Pressing the receiver between his head and shoulder, Roy opened the envelope carefully and pulled out what was inside. He gasped at the sight of what he was seeing.

There in the first photo, it was a picture of Ed. She was chained up against the wall with a blindfold covering her eyes. He knew it was her by the scar still showing on her shoulder where her old automail used to be attached. Only bits of clothing covered her bruised and bloody body, shielding just the most intimate parts of her body from showing. Flipping to the next photo, it just got worse as he went on. Photo after photo until he stopped on the last photo sent to him. Ed lay naked on the floor in front a man who only wore a pair of boxers. Staring at the photo, he looked at Ed's face. Her eyes stared intently at the cameraman. There was nothing left in the golden pools, no fight and no fire. She was empty. It was as if the man had taken all that she was and threw it out the window.

"Do you like my newest model, Mustang?" The man laughed. "I must say when I first kidnapped her I never realized what a jewel I actually had until I saw that little watch of hers. There was so much fight in her. She screamed about a brother she needed to see and a Colonel Mustang that was going to come get her."

"What'd you do to her?" Mustang yelled into the phone, slamming his fist into his desk and standing up causing his chair to go flying behind him. "What have you done?"

"Oh, I broke her, Mustang. I broke the famous alchemist to nothing but a pile of bones that I have my fun with," he replied, snarling his words. "When I first had my way with her, she cried for you. Cried out for her Colonel to come save her and it made me even more aroused to see the tears fall down her face."

"Let her go."

"No, I don't think I will. It's not equivalent exchange if I don't get something equal in exchange, now is it?" The man sneered.

"You're an alchemist?" By now Riza and the others had entered the room. Roy held up a finger for them to be quiet. "Only alchemists use that argument when they want something."

"Ah, it's taken you long enough to catch on. I thought you'd catch on by now with all the girls I left for you."

"You were leaving a trail but that doesn't make any sense. The other's didn't have anything in common," Roy argued.

"They didn't? Shame." There was a shuffling on the other end of the line before the man spoke again. "I'll leave you with one little more tidbit of fuel for you fire before I go." Another slight pause before he heard the man speak, this time it wasn't to him. "Little Eden, there's a man on the phone for you."

"Col...nel?" The voice was quiet and very hard to hear, broken even. "Please…"

"Ed!" Just before the line went dead, Roy heard a man's laughter and scream of pain. "NO!" Roy yelled into the dead phone line before just before looking up at his team.

"Who was that, sir?" Riza questioned, stepping forward. "Were you speaking with Eden?"

"No, it wasn't her but the man who has her," he replied, moving to pick up his chair before sitting. "He's had her this whole time. The entire time we've been looking for her. She's been with him." He handed the photos to her as he picked up the folder with the other girls' photos. "He's left clues with the other girls. He kidnapped and killed those girls for a reason and we need to figure out what it is."

Riza gasped in horror at the photos, she couldn't believe what she was looking at. "Do we inform Alphonse that she's alive?"

Jean stepped up to his desk. "What's the plan, boss?"

Roy was angry. Very angry. "We're going to get her back. We are going to figure out where she is and we are going to bring her home."
