The Blade Alchemist

Chapter 6

We're looking around town, trying to find Winry. Yea, she's somehow not so easy to find.

"Winry! Where are you?"

Edward was yelling as loud as he could and so was Al. I cover my ears because it hurts. They walk around a little longer yelling for Winry and that's when I see a supicious looking van. It's drives away from the Central Command. I pull on Ed's coat.

"Yea, what is it Jayden?"

"I saw a weird van pulling away from the Command center."

"Oh. That's the van that delivers the weekly meat to the cafeteria."

"Oh."

I still think that something is going on and it has to do with that van.

"Can we please follow it?"

"Well I guess."

We follow the van.

We arrive outside the van and Edward opens the back doors. He turns around.

"Alright, I'll be back in a few minutes, of I'm not, then you'll know something is wrong."

"Alrighty then!"

He turns around again and jumps up and closes the doors.

Its been about 20 minutes since Edward entered the van. Everything is quiet until I hear it.A very loud scream. And it belongs to Ed!

"Ed!"

I whip around to see the military and Al running towards me.

"Jay! Where's Ed?"

"He's inside! He said he would be out in a few minutes, but its been almost 20 minutes!"

I start crying cause of how scared I am. Alphonse rushes inside the van and I hear lots of screaming and yelling. Al comes out again with Edward, he has wide eyes and a lot of blood on him. The military rushes in and pukka out a man dressed as a woman. Then Winry is helped out and has the chains on her wrists taken off.

"I was so scared. I couldn't do anything I felt so helpless in there."

I rush over to Ed (with help from an officer) and set beside him.

"We're just humans, insignificant humans. We don't know any better. I didn't know what it felt like to be near death but I found out today. I thought I was going to die. My body slowed and I couldn't move cause I was paralyzed with fear."

I turn to Edward and hug him. The boy snapped out of his fear and blushes at the sudden contact from me.

"I was scared to Ed. I wish I could've helped you!"

I snuggle deeper into his coat. And he finally had the guts and hugs me back.
