Observer Drabble

Disclaimer: Um... This show is waaaaay to in depth with so much underlining crap and angst for me to have written it. (sweatdrop)

Warning: Not-so-obscure SPOILERS for the infamous episode 25 and for the end of the series. You've been warned.

NOTE: I'm sorry for the prolonged wait but I was waiting for my beta to beta this but she never e-mailed me back and I'm not sure she if she got the e-mail and I'm an impatient person by nature so sorry for grammar and spelling errors. I'll update it with correct grammar and stuff when my beta answers my e-mail.

Glor: Yeah, this is me giving 'Closure,' closure. This is going to be a rather long drabble and there will be an observer. Okay, that's my obscure way of saying a random original character. I got the idea for this from 'Once Upon a Rainy Day' by silent:tears:fall. It's a different kind of fic and it gave me such a great idea. I hope she doesn't mind I'm using the idea but go read the fic. It's interesting although I think the ending's quite abrupt but that's just opinion so read it, after this, of course. (grin)


First Person, Observer P.O.V.

I know shouldn't be here. I mean, this is a military cemetery. If someone caught me, they could mistake me for a grave robber or maybe accuse me of desecrating graves or something.

Ugh, why am I here? Most of these people probably don't deserve such a nice place to be buried. We all know that the military's corrupt. Didn't a Colonel supposedly kill Fuhrer King Bradley three years back? And haven't people been saying the new Fuhrer was that Colonel?

I slung the shovel over my shoulder. Whatever, just find the grave and dig it up... Okay, so maybe if someone did catch me, they would definitely accuse me of grave robbing but it's just a stupid dare. My friends dared me to dig up the grave of that Fullmetal Alchemist to see if it was really true that they never found a body.

They could have at least told me the guy's name! It's been three years since his death, how am I suppo- AH! I landed face forward in the mud. It had rained recently and yuck! I am covered in mud...

I composed myself and looked over my shoulder to see what I tripped over. Great, a grave. I wonder if the grave I am looking for... No, this guy wasn't a National Alchemist. Hm, but it says he went up two ranks to Brigadier General after his death. Well that's stupid. What's this- Maes Hughes person going to do with higher rank when his dead? Stupid military.

I was about to walk away before I noticed the year on the tombstone. Three years ago? Heh, I guess death really does come in threes. I chuckled at my joke. Hey, this means I must be close to that Alchemist's grave! Hm. What was his name? Sounded common enough, I think... Elric...? Yeah, that was the last name! Hope there's only one Elric in this cemetery.

Okay, that's the old Fuhrer's grave and this one is- Yes! Edward Elric! That's it! Time to start digging! Before I could even start digging, I heard footsteps squish in the mud. Oh, fuck. I looked around and luckily saw a nearby bush and jumped in.

After a few moments, I peeked my head out to see if the person had left. Just my luck, he's visiting the grave I was gonna dig up! This is way too much trouble. He's in the military too! Damn... Wait, he's saying something.

"Edward-kun... It's been three years and I have yet to find closure for your death, even with all my resources as the Fuhrer." I heard the man sa- Wait! Fuhrer? Oh, I'm fucking screwed if he finds me! And if he found out I was going to dig up that grave, I'm so dead!

While I was panicking, another man came to the grave, unnoticed by the Fuhrer. Oh, shit! Another one! Well, at least it doesn't look like he's in the military... Hm, the new guy looks hott. Ah, wrong thought pattern! Think of running! I was about to make my get away but then the new man spoke up.

"It's strange." I heard him say which caused the Fuhrer to turn around his eyes to widen in disbelief, "How can they have a grave for someone who's not even dead?"

I blink. Not dead? Wait... Is this Edward Elric?

"Edward...?" the Fuhrer finally found his voice.

I heard Edward snort and his long braided hair blew in the night breeze, "Mustang, you sound broken. This isn't the man I left to rebuild this country." He said smugly as Mustang regained his composure.

Hell, this guy is just talking to Fuhrer with no respect! Not that I care but- Hey! Is the Fuhrer smiling? Strange, you'd think he'd be angry...

"You're the same as ever, Hagane no." No, he wasn't smiling, that was definitely a smirk.

Edward smiled slightly, "Back to that name are we? Fine, Taisa."

"Fuhrer now, Hagane no chibi." The Fuhrer replied and I think I saw Edward's eyebrow twitch in annoyance.

Edward advanced towards the Fuhrer. He got dangerously close and I'm beginning to think I shouldn't be here. It seems too... intimate. "So, Roy, who's chibi?" He asked, as he got right into the Fuhrer's face. He doesn't seem any shorter than the Fuhrer, if you ask me.

Roy grinned, "No one, Edward." He answered smugly as he closed the distance between their lips. Whoa, hott. Okay, now I'm sure I shouldn't be watching this... But I can't tear my eyes away, it's like a car accident.

They parted for air and looked so intensely at each other, "So I guess this means you missed me, eh?" Edward said as he panted a bit.

Yeah, shouldn't be here. The Fuhrer looks like he's going to take him right here. My face heated up. Damn. "Of course." He answered as he ran his hand through Edward's bangs, "Let's get out of here, Edward."

Edward nodded as the two headed out of the cemetery. I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding. Boy, am I going to have one hell of a story to tell my friends.


Glor: Ooh... This may not be a drabble anymore. But hell! I love how it came out. See? I didn't kill Edward! He's alive and those two are going to a hotel as I speak! (sweatdrop) I'm so happy that this came out so well! Hope you guys agree with me. Oh and thank you to silent:tears:fall for reviewing my last drabble but this drabble is what I meant in that review. That was sort of a prologue to this one. Thank you to all my other reviewers as well!
