"A life for a life has never been enough."

Eyes pleading, she spoke three words that served to kill the both of them.
"Don't do it."
And the world went black...

For each person struck down, there is one left behind - never completely whole again, a shell of their former self.
(Of the someone they used to be.)
In a sense, still alive.
(But really dead inside.)
There is no such thing as a merciful death.

A/N: Contrary to what this piece suggests, I do not believe she's dead (...yet?). Riza is one tough chick and won't go down so easily. Riza Hawkeye is a fighter and she will live on. Thank you.
Comments are very much appreciated.
Always,
