A/N: My friend is coming down tonight, which means no new chapters this weekend BUT, if you check my deviantART, I will be posting cosplay pictures from this story :DD And other cosplays from my stories and such. Warning for crappy writing.
His mind reflected on everything that happened on that day. He remembered every detail about that day. The weather, the way his hair was parted, even what his mother was wearing.
It was a clear night, every star shined brightly in the sky. But not too many people noticed. Everyone was focusing on the Fall Festival. Going on rides, playing games at the booths, admiring the bright lights that seemed to glow like the sun. His eyes wondered all around until they fell on his prize, his little sister. He walked up to her and took her hand, smiling.
"There you are." He said. "I've been looking all over for you."
She smiled up at him, her eyes shining brighter then the stars. Together, they walked around, playing games, eating treats. Before they boarded a ride, though, he stopped, smiling down at her once more.
"I'll be right back. I need to use the bathroom. Stay here." He said, letting go of her hand.
He never thought that it would be the last time he would ever hold her hand. Looking down at his right now, Alphonse wished that his assumptions about her was right.
It felt strange.
At first, wearing clothes felt horrible. They made her itch, scratch, even grumble at the mere thought of wearing a shirt. But now, as she stood bare, she felt exposed.
She watched as her trainer, Tucker, walked around, picking things up. Mentally, she sighed, realizing that things were now going back to normal. A normal that she never wanted to happen. When the place looked to be in order, she picked up her bow, grabbing an arrow from the table, and drawing it back, staring down the tip. He wanted to see if her aim had been corrupted in the time she was gone. And when she shot the arrow, watching it dig into the heart of the dummy on the wall, he smirked.
She was still perfect.
Edo picked up another arrow off the table and drew it back, shooting it straight into the dummy's head. "Marvelous. " He mumbled, causing the teen to look over.
Tucker smiled and made his way over to her, clapping. "You're still the same, fine product I made you out to be."
The girl glared at him as he stopped and walked over to his desk, picking through the files. That Roy Mustang may have hit her, but at least he treated her like a human being. At least he didn't make her feel like she was this way. As her mind swirled with the memories her and the man shared, her trainer plucked out two pictures from his files and handed them to her.
One was of a man. His hair had begun to gray but he oddly had the same onyx eyes she had seen in her crush. The other was of a woman, her hair also beginning to gray, and she too held the same set of eyes. "They will be with their son at the sushi bar downtown." He said. "Higher ups. They both own the local electric and water companies. Once they are gone, you may finish off the son as well."
Edo looked up at him, trying not to show any emotion in her face. He smiled down at her.
"This may be our break, Edo." He said, fixing his glasses. "The government would take notice of this and finally help me continue the project. A whole line of small assassins, one programmed for every job. Can you see it, too?"
The girl didn't move, continuing to watch as the mad man walked around, retelling his story over and over. How he was a genius, how she was his greatest success, and how the government will pay for not going through with his amazing plan.
She looked down at the photos once more, sighing softly as she did, hoping that her assumption was wrong.
Hughes nodded as he took notes on what the teen in front of him was saying. When he would open his mouth, the words would come out so fast, he didn't know what the kid was saying. Constantly, he told him to slow down. After a minute or two, he nodded, putting a reassuring hand on his shoulder, and returning to the car outside.
"And?" His partner asked, looking over at him.
He nodded, putting his note pad away. "Yup, it's her. It's defiantly our Edo." He said, starting the car.
Roy nodded, looking back outside as his companion looked him over. "You're going to dinner with your parents dressed in uniform?" He asked.
The black haired man chuckled and turned to him, smiling slightly. "Well, I don't think I have time to change, now do I?"
Hughes sighed and shook his head, pulling out of the driveway. "I guess you don't." He muttered as the two made their way downtown.
The cold wind swooped down her neck as she sat in the trees, waiting for her targets to walk into sight. Every time a person walked out of the restaurant, she would glance at them then the pictures, seeing if they were a match. Sadly, no.
It must have been hours before two cars pulled up to the sushi bar, a pair walking out of each. Edo looked down and stared at her targets as they walked over to the others, smiles on their faces.
"Ah, Roy! It's good to see you!" The man said, hugging his grown son.
No...
This couldn't be...
Her eyes opened wide at the sight of the group, realizing that her assumption was correct. She would have to kill both Roy and his parents. Her body began to shake from lack of clothing as she drew back her bow, aiming for the father's head. Her heart was screaming at her to stop while her brain praised her for doing such a good job. A sigh escaped her lips and without meaning, she released the arrow. Her eyes closed as it did, realizing she made a terrible mistake. Roy's mother's scream seeped its way into the ears of anyone nearby, her cries engraving in their brains. Edo looked down at the scene she had created, watching the blood flow out of his head like a red river. Both the man and his mother called out the elder's name until they realized how late it was, how he was already gone. The blonde jumped down, startling the group that had gathered around the body. The police officer glared at her, boiling with rage but yet was still relived to see the teen alive.
"You killed him, didn't you?" He asked, his voice dripping down like venom from a snake.
Her golden eyes simply looked up at him, tears forming at the brim. There was no way he would care about her the same again, she knew that. As the thought danced in her head, she walked over, everyone backing away from her as she passed. With one motion, she grabbed the gun from the officer's holster and placed it in his hand, bringing it up to her forehead. She truly didn't want to live this life anymore. She didn't want to live on knowing that so much blood had stained her hands. The tears flowed down her cheeks as she stared into his onyx eyes. The same eyes that had, once before, pulled her into an everlasting trance.
Roy stared into her eyes, watching the tears soak her face. And as he did, strangely, his anger and hate disappeared. True, she did kill his father, but seeing her cry was just as worse. It still pained him to his very core. Silently, he placed his finger on the trigger, contemplating. She should feel the same pain his father just had, but, taking her life won't bring him back.
The black haired man began to open his mouth, ready to explain to her everything, but was cut off as hers opened as well, her voice unshaken as she spoke words he never wanted to hear.
"Kill me."
A/N: Will Roy kill her? Hmmmmmmmmmmm...
