Sin

by Nigihayami Kohakunushi

Ed's lost pretty much everything he cares for in life, but now, he's lost his brother because of HIS mistake. Now he must put things back to the way it was, but with a help of an old friend. [RoyXEd, in the future]

Author's Note: Okay. Like many OTHER fanfics, FMA is NOT in my ownership. It's rightful owner is Arakawa Hiromu-sensei. But I DO own the plot. KEKE. :3

"Al!!!" he cried out in anguish.

It had been 3 years since his brother, Alphonse, had died.

No.

Not dead.

He was brutally taken from me, Edward thought bitterly.

Alphonse.

His brother by blood,

Lost from him.

Another failed human transmutation.

One of Central's most well-known state alchemist; the Fullmetal Alchemist – turned vagabond, after being discovered attempting human alchemy, sacrificing his own brother in the process.

He, Edward Elric, had been sentenced to death, and was to be killed by a firing squad, if it weren't for –

Roy Mustang.

Brigadier General Roy Mustang.

He had stepped in, while the investigation was taking place.

An investigation for the murder of my brother, of who they convicted me of.

The elder Elric laughed at the thought.

Edward took off his hood and tilted his head to the sky.

The rain was splattering across his face, washing away any signs of tears.

No fair sky, I feel like the one crying, he thought.

Maybe, I don't know –how- to cry.

I wasn't able to shed a single tear for my mother, and now, not even for my brother…

Have I no love for them?

He exhaled deeply.

Rain, wash away my sins…Cleanse my soul of this burden I carry.

Still.

He –could- try one last time.

He definitely knew that his brother wasn't dead.

Just…on the other side.

Waiting.

But am I ready to sacrifice myself, again?

He looked down, and clenched his fists.

I'll see you again, Alphonse.

Wait for me.

So... This happens to be ONE of my first fanfics. I have more, it's just, I haven't POSTED them...I'm afraid of people yelling. XD Not that I'm really confident about this one. Again, this is my FIRST, and it's really..just my way of letting my feelings and emotions out in the open. Please, R&R, and no flames, please:3 Constructive criticism and kudos are welcome. D
