Chapter 1 - Roy's P.O.V.
Ring... ring... ring... 'Ugh!' I didn't want to get up again today, but work came first. I sat up in bed and stood up after thirty seconds of waiting, and I instantly stepped on 'I guess I need to clean that up soon, I'll do it when I get home,' I thought again, but I instantly knew it wouldn't happen.
I walked into the bathroom and stripped off my clothes and started the hot water, as soon as it got to the right temperature, I stepped in. 'Normal day, I hope Fullmetal comes back soon, so it can be changed up a bit.' I thought, and finished my shower as soon as the hot water ran into cold water. I grabbed a towel and dried my face and body, and then I got on my uniform. I, then, put my pajamas into the dirty clothes hamper and walked out to my car and drove to the eastern headquarters.
While driving my car, I started to hum a weird tune, but stopped after eyeing an explosion miles away. 'Damn, who's messing up East City now?' and off I drove to the scene. I took five minutes to arrive, and then I noticed there was a huge swarm of people there, but they weren't the ordinary crowd, they were officers reporting for a part of their job.
I got out of my car as soon as I stopped at a decent spot, and noticed Lieutenant Hawkeye trying to keep the officers from trying to shoot just at nothing. I walked over to her and then eyed the cloud of dust.
"Lieutenant, what do you know so far about the impact?" I ask, and she shakes her head.
"Nothing yet, Colonel, but as soon as the dust clears, we'll know what caused it, but it made such an impact, we don't don't know how deep it went into the earth," Riza reported, and I just nod, but I also notice a shadow coming from the dust.
"Get your guard up and ready, someone or something is coming out," I warn, but then the figure stopped, and we still couldn't see the features of who it was. "Walk forward, and if you don't attack, we won't be forced to fight back!" the figure started to walk forward, and stopped, but as they kept walking, the dust also followed them. "Stop," I order, and the figure stopped, and I walk forwards towards the figure.
I walked and stood in front of the thing, and I grabbed their arm, but it burned like I was touching fire, 'they're sick, as soon as we get them out of here, we'll get them a doctor, but we need to find out who they are first.' I tug on the thing, and they follow, but the dust wasn't settling, so I yell the only idea that came to mind, maybe it would work, but I doubted it.
"Lieutenant, would water help to settle the dust, or would it make it worse?" I ask, but then I felt a tug from the thing, and I looked their body had fallen, "never kind that, we need to get this person some medical attention!" I say, and pick them up, and start to run, and I escaped the dust, pulling the person from it, to find out they're a female with white hair and brown skin, 'are they Ishvalan?' I thought, but I didn't care, I needed to get her to a doctor.
"Colonel, the dust is now clearing, so the water idea would be useless anyway!" Riza yelled, and I looked back and nodded, but the extreme heat from the girl kept me from stopping for a small chat.
"We need to get her to a doctor, for her skin is too hot to be at a normal temperature," I say, and I get a nod from her, and I run to my car, and I lay her in the back across the whole row. 'She looks to be in her early 20's, but I'll have to ask her when she wakes up.' I thought, and off I went to get this girl the right medication she needed to live. I drove and drove until I got to the hospital, but I was extra gentle on the turns so she didn't fall and get any more hurt than she already is.
"Mph," I heard the girl mumble, and I finally got to the parking lot of the hospital. I quickly exit my car and run to the back to get her some help for her terribly high fever. I pick her up, after I open the door, and I run into the lobby.
"Help, she needs a doctor, her skin is extremely warm, and that kind of feels like it's a fever!" I exclaimed, and they take the skinny girl from my arms without any trouble and take her into another room. I go sit down, and wait for what seemed like forever, and then I look to see Riza came in and sat next to me.
"Colonel, do you have any information on the girl yet?" Riza asked, and all my answer is my head shaking 'no'.
"She didn't say anything except mumble, like when someone wakes you up, you go 'mph', she did that, nothing more," I explain, and that was when the doctor walked out of the hallway and looked at me and came more my way.
"Sir, the woman you brought in, she finally woke up, and she wanted to speak to the person who brought her in here," I stood up and followed the doctor into the room, and that's where I saw the girl, her eyes were open, and they were red. 'Yeah, she's an Ishvalan, but what caused an impact like that, and I'm surprised she survived the impact.'
"Thank-you, sir."
"Huh? Oh, you're welcome, I just felt you arm, while trying to get you out of there, and it was an instinct that it didn't feel right," I smiled, and she smiled back.
"You're Roy Mustang, correct?"
"Yeah, I am, why do you ask?"
"Just wondering, anyway, thank you for bringing me here, I was terribly cold. I mean I still am, but not as cold as I was, and that's what you get from a fever," the girl concluded and I realized I still needed to get her name.
"You know my name, but I never got yours. Would you mind telling me yours?" I ask, and I get a small nod or shiver from her, and she opens her mouth, but then hesitates.
"Well, are you going to tell the colonel, or are we going to have to wait all day, Ishvalan?" I hear Riza threaten, but the girl just looks away towards the window.
"My name... it's Annalee Mustang."
