Hello loves!
Miss me any? I'm sure you but lets pretend ya did :)
I'm gonna warn you right now this story is about to get a little dark and I appologize but Its needed for the plot to thrive
alright lets go
I fell to my knees to hold the collapsed man in fornt of me.
"Hughes? HUGHES!"
I started to franticly scream when his pulse started to drop. I called HQ to send someone so we could get him to the infirmary. Civilians started to crowd me. I shooed them away from me and my collapsed friend until Havoc pulled up in the car.
"Al what happened to him?"
"He just... collapsed trying to-"
Hughes gripped my arm and whispered:
"You next Elric brothers…"
A chill ran up my spine.
"W-what? Hughes?!"
He fell back unconscious.
Havoc asked:
"Whats that all about?"
I snapped out of my state of confusion and looked him in the eye.
"..I'm not quite sure But I'm gonna find out."
Havoc helped me lift Hughes into the car and then we drove to HQ.
On the way there Havoc broke tthe silence by asking:
"Did he tell you?"
"About Mustang?'
"Yeah..."
"He did, is he gonna make it?"
I really didn't care but I was worrying for Ed's sake.
"They don't know man, Its up in the air at this point."
I looked down solemly at Hughes. Mustang is his best friend he'd be heart broken if something happend to him. I don't know how to feel right now. Vengeful or remorceful?
Ed's Pov:
After Al left I hopped in the shower. The warm water hitting my skin at a steady pace soothed me.
"Drip drop drip"
I hummed and I enjoyed my shower fully. I couldn't help but think about what Al had said before he left...
"Its okay Ed. Just talk when your ready."
Could I really believe that sweet smile? The one I had come to know and love. He had hidden one heart breaking experience after another behind it. I could feel my heart breaking at just the thought of him just sitting somewhere alone and scared, because his own brother couldn't give him the security he deserved. That I had failed as a brother and as someone he cared about.
As I slumped to the bottom of the bath hanging my head in anguish I heard someone scream. It startled me so much out of my depressed state that I fell out of the shower and landed on my face.
"Hello?"
I called out from my shower. When I didnt here anyone return my call I grabbed my towel and left the bathroom. I cut out the light and made my way to the door of me an Al's room. I called out to the scream again.
"Hello? Are you alright?"
Another soul ripping scream was released into the air. I was starting to worry. I Crept down the hallway pass Hughes office. There was no one there. I left and made my way down to the Mustangs office and heard the slight shuffling of metal. The lights were turned out in there.
"Mustang?"
A large black figure pushed me out of the way and I fell back as it passed by me. When I sat up the only trace of the creature that was left was a few drops of what appeared to be..blood?
"ROY?!"
I ran in to his office and what I saw...
The entire room was coated in a mixture of blood and entrails. I searched for mustang among the sea of blood and he had been torn into. His legs were sprawled across the floor and his arms were tied behind him. His shirt had been cut off and his torso torn into. You could see inside of him. The only things you saw were his lungs and his heart.
"Oh my god Mustang!"
I dove for his body on the other side of the room. He looked so frail. I wanted to hold him in my arms. He coughed up blood trying to tell me something.
"No, shush. Please save your strength."
He shook his head 'no' and pointed to the wall across from him. I was terrified to look up.
"Roy what is it?"
He just kept pointing. So I mustered up the courage to see what was there. And To my displeasure I saw a trail of his intestines leading to the wall. I got up and walked towards the mess of organs along the base of it and looked up...
I became I'll at what I saw next and threw up onto the floor.
As I peered up again I saw that Roy's mangled insides had been formed to spell out:
"You next Elric brothers"
This was by far the most horrific thing I had seen during this case. I mean what kind of sick fuck would do this? He used the man's entrails as a marker?! This was bad. This was really really bad.
I grabbed the phone and called Hughes.
"Hughes."
"Yello! Major Hughes here!"
He sounded so happy.
"Hughes. Its Ed...Can you come down here..."
"Whats the matter Ed?"
"Theres been an incident...Mustang's hurt really badly, please hurry over here now!"
"Calm down Ed! Just tell me what happened."
I started to cry.
"I don't think he's gonna make it..."
Wow that was tough to write. Sorry for how dark its getting.
And I'm sorry I've only been updating a little bit guys I'm trying to get better
Please review
See ya!
