It was a beautiful day in Risembool the sun shone bright and their seemed to be a peace all around the little sleepy town. In a little yellow house not to far in lie a old woman on her death bed and a granddaughter losing hope every second that passed. Winry laid her head on the table she was exhausted now they had just brought Pinako home from the hospital in Central and were now making her comfort for her death. She couldn't believe it she just wanted it to be a dream as she lifted her head to the sound of her grandmother moaning it was time for more morphine and Winry had to give it to her. The cancer hit granny hard one minute she was laughing and joking the next Winry found her at the bottom stairs. Oh how she wished she never left her alone that night to go on a date but granny pushed her to go she knew she would never get over Ed if she never got out there again. She sighed as she made her way to the kitchen table were the bottles of medicines lied but before she could reach the kitchen a knock on the door froze her in her place. Who could that be she thought to her self turning to make her way towards the door but the knocking seem to get louder
"Coming!" She called as low as she could she wouldn't have someone disturbing her granny from resting. She reached the door turning it slowly cracking it to look out. Her eyes lit up to see it was none other then Colonel Mustang and Hawkeye .
"Your granny called to see me" Mustang said watching Winry as confusion set in as she pulled the door all the way open. They walked in as Winry stood out of the way to let them in.
"Well this is a surprised welcome Granny ask for you why she just saw you at the hospital?" She said as she closed the door behind them. Mustang took a deep breath as he took his hat off and handed it to Winry.
"Please have a seat I will go put some tea on" Winry said turning to head to the kitchen. She walked to the kitchen until she heard her granny's cries again and remembered she was getting some morphine for her.
"I will be a minute I was in the middle of getting granny her medicine" she called as she reached for the little orange bottle she felt someone place a hand on her shoulder she caught her breath as she turned to see Colonel Mustang holding it she looked up at him confused. He pulled a chair out in front of her and pointed to it as he sat in the one he had pulled out for his self. Winry was speechless what was going on she though as he looked up at her with pity in his eyes she hated it first Ed AL leaving , Izumi passing and now granny why was everyone pitying her she had to deal with these things and be strong alone now she thought as she held her hands in her lap now. Mustang watched as her face drew sad and she looked as though she was holding the tears in now he sighed aloud again and spoke.
"Winry do you know why I am here?" he asked seriously as Winry looked up to the sound of his voice she watched as he turn his eyes away from her.
"No I assume to see Granny she don't have long now the lung cancer has spread to her brain " Winry explain looking down to her hands as she rung them together shaking a little her heart felt as if it was going to exploded hearing it come from her mouth. She watched Roy sigh heavily now and look at her as he reach his hand over her to hands.
"Winry your Granny's dieing wish is that you be happy" he said rubbing her hands with his in a comfort way. Winry's head shot up as tears streamed down her face now
"I am happy! What does that mean" she cried pulling her hand away from him Roy closed his eyes and breathed in again his head was pounding now. He calmed his self when he heard the chair's leg slide and knew Winry had jumped up now as she charged away from him he jumped up and grabbed her.
"Winry Please she wants you to be with the Elric brothers" he said as she stopped in her track at the mention of the two young men that left her years and years ago, her heart sank now as she turned her head to face him. Their eyes caught as Winry arms when limp to her side she looked at him with tears stain her face red now. Mustang did not wait for her to speak again as he took hold of the situation.
"Winry I can open the gate for your grandmother's life that is what she wants me to do" he said sadly pulling back a little fearing the worst. He watched as Winry's face drew in horror from what he was saying but she quickly recovered her eyes closed and she dropped her head. Roy felt her grip become tighter on his hand as he stepped towards her and embraced her in a hug.
"Granny" Winry cried as she felt Roy's hand run through her hair gently
"I am sorry Winry am so sorry" He whispered as she pulled away gently to look at him her eyes said it all she was scare now and she was tried being strong alone
Winry took a deep breath and spoke.
"Colonel Mustang will the gate really take me to AL and Ed and Granny who will bury her in my place" she asked in a sadden tone.
"Your Granny has ask me to make care for her resting place in your place and all of her earthy assets as well providing your wish this of course" Roy stated. He watched as she took deep breaths now he could see she was thinking hard.
"How long does she have" he asked interrupting her in thought he felt bad about asking but he knew her answer there was nothing left for her here after her grandmother passed she would go he knew it he just waited to hear her say it. Winry took a deep breath again and spoke
"The doctors say a week but I can feel her slipping fast she will pass within 48 hours" Winry said sadly reaching over and picking the little orange bottle up. Roy shook his head as he followed her up to her granny room. He could hear her cries of pain and she calling out for Urey he couldn't help but wonder where he heard that name before as he entered the room seeing Winry standing beside her bed now.
"He was my father Urey was" she said sadly as she stroked her white hair on her head and touching her now feverish skin. Roy drew back a little, memories of the great doctor he was forced to kill and the guilt he felt. She watched his reaction she knew of his guilt but she knew he was a man who would make right of wrongs.
"I think she sees him and mommy" she said smiling a little bit as she turned her attention back to her ailing grandmother. She sat on the little stool by her bed side as she dripped the dose of morphine in her mouth as granny licked it and mumbled. Winry took her attention off her to notice Roy preparing a circle of alchemy on the floor around the bed. She sighed heavy making him stop in his tracks to look up.
"Winry is this what you want" he asked as he knelt down drawing the inner lines of the circle. Winry looked to be taken back by the question but shook her head stating yes. She looked broken now as if a small child that lost her way Mustang stopped drawing and walked over to her. He watched her eyes dropped down to the floor as he reached a hand to her shoulder and he began to speak again
"Winry if-" was all he managed to get out before her out burst
"No! You don't know how bad I want this!" She cried out now throwing her hands on her face and shook he could only watch as she fought at her tormented soul over this choice and removed his white glove to place his hand upon her. She muffed and sobbed for what seem like a few seconds till she brought her arms to encircle her shaking body in her embrace. Roy rubbed her shoulder gently as he could only close his eyes to drown out the emotions his self. He missed the Elrics so much but he only knew now he could go on without but not her not now. He took her parents away from her and her best friend as well by getting them involved in the military. He his self was even surprised the women in front of him didn't disprize him all together but then he caught his breath in his throat when he opened his eyes to see her tear filled eyes watching him. She turned her hand back to her dieing grandmother, placing her hand on hers and sat her back turn to him now all that was heard was the breathing in the room. Roy froze as if he was held by some force that is until he heard her speak.
"Granny is this what you want you know all I want is you back I'll take that now over anything in the world I love you" she cried laying her head gently on her Pinako's chest and softly stroking her hair against her head. She knew her grandmother was to weak to answer and only took another deep breath to sit up. Roy watched as the mood in the room had met a breaking point and watched as she rose to her feet.
"You can take her tonight with the exchange" she asked seriously her face drawn straight now turning her head to view him standing now at he side. Roy taken back by the sudden strength and knowledge as he shook his head in a yes fashion and removed his hand from her shoulder to resume his drawing. He knew the risk involved when the gate opened it could option to take more then just her granny's soul and body it could take him as well. The gate had it own way to demand the exchange fairness and he only wished he had kissed Riza one more time just in case the situation came to that he knew he be glad to give his life up to this women standing before him for the love of the Elrics and the seer act of asking forgiveness and doing right of a wrong bringing lives into her life and not deaths now. Winry smiled to her self she knew now her granny would not suffer long now this way as well she would let her go and Pinako's wish for her for her granddaughter's happiness would be her heaven. She sat down again quietly now waiting as she waited she felt a cold sense station on her leg and looked down in shock.
"Den" she cried softly watching her dog's brown eyes that seemed dull now from age looking up at her with a sad look as he placed his head on her leg. She petted him softy as she thought of him. He was 19 now couple days to 20 along time for a large dog to be holding on but he still did. She looked up to Roy as he caught her staring at Den Roy knew her question.
"Den's life line might follow being he is close to death if he is in the room I'll care for him when you leave" he said seriously watching Winry eyes now she knew he wouldn't live forever even if she stayed so why did it hurt so much to hear it but it was then she realize we all will die and life is like that regardless of emotions. He would go with granny tonight she would be sure they would have each other until she would follow besides her parents loved him they would have him as well.
"No he can go tonight with Granny" she said seriously as tears fell she brought her self to her knees to embrace her old friend. Den looked up now with a sense of peace as Winry wrapped her arms around her.
"Will you go be with granny for me" she asked her voice getting weaker now as her tears started to fall again Den could only nuzzled his head into her neck and close his eyes. She knew he could understand her as he leaned in to her more and wined a little in her ear. Dogs knew death and felt emotions very well after all their senses are higher. She sobbed heavy now as she held him tighter
"Thank You old friend I love you so much" she said pulling away touching his face and taking him in her lap as she rose up to take her place by her granny side. She sat on the stool as Den draped his neck over her shoulder only breathing and caulk tapping could be heard as they stayed there in their moments as Roy continue to work. Roy looked up now at the finished circle before him and only prayed he would do it right as he walked over to the bed. He looked up to Winry as he removed a little hunting knife out of his pocket she looked slightly confused by his action.
I need some of her blood for the transfer he said swallowing hard he knew what he was as but Winry shot him a comforting look as she began to speak.
"She just been given her morphine nick her finger a little she will not feel it" she said sadly silently asking granny for forgiveness. Roy did as told nicking Pinako's finger drawing a little but just enough for the circle he was to place on her all the while Pinako remaining as peaceful as ever. He lifted his hand to her fore head, drawing the little circle all while Winry held her breath and urge to cry. Then he looked to Den wiping a little of Pinako blood on his forehead as well Winry stroked the old dog as she place him by Pinako's side in bed. Den looked up as he laid beside Pinako his eyes now closing and draping his self against her. Winry became overwhelm as she let a heart breaking cry and she fell to embrace the them as they laid bed. She could feel her arms just wide enough to hold them both and the tears soaking them as she buried Den's fur. She laid their as Roy watched her he as many death he had witness even felt his legs going and lean against the bed to hold himself from falling. Winry felt the bed move a little and cried out to him.
"Mustang Please Please" she cried shaking uncontrollable now as she held on to them both with all her strength. He looked up as he heard her desperate cries to him but he could not move but then he heard it.
"Please come get me I can't let go on my own" she sobbed becoming weaker by the second she could feel them both warm both alive under her and yet they were dead now in her mind. She felt him grab her body by the waist and with little effort pull her gently to him as she turn to cry in his chest. He could only shhhhh her gently and rock her as he pulled her to the end of the room he gently placed her settling her to her knees now. He held her for seem like hours but only minutes and she pulled away enough to look at him her face red and her eyes wide in a daze.
"I am ready Mustang I am ready to go" She said as her head tilted to the ceiling she felt him back away slowly she now held her own body now it took all she had to hold her self up as she felt a warm feeling trickle through her she looked to them one last time as she caught Mustang and their eyes met.
"Winry Rockwell farewell take care of your self and thank you" he said softly as he watched the red light flare and her body drop slowly to the ground in a bright light. She caught him before her eyes close a tear one and then that was the last she saw was him and anything of her world.
