I'm soooo sorry that its been awhile, but i've held up with school and family, so I'm so sorry once again.
Hope u enjoy! XD
Pain, pain is what I felt as I saw Nina/Alexander on that wall. I crumpled to the floor and tried to make myself as small as possible. I somehow managed to make myself go to sleep. I hadn't realized until somehow I felt my body floating. I slowly open my eyes to find myself in Mustang's arms.
He looked down at me and gave me a sweet smile. I stared at him blankly and closed my eyes, letting darkness engulf me once more. I didn't wake up until I felt someone petting my hair.
I didn't dream while I was in my unconscious state, I just stayed unconscious. I slept on not caring.
I slowly open my eyes to find my brothers staring at me. Ed with a relieved look and Al with his metal face. I stared at them with a blank face, no emotions, just stared.
"Elizabeth?" Al asked a little cautiously. I turned to face him with my emotionless expression and answered.
"Yes?" I asked.
"Are you okay?" Ed asked noticing that Al had bowed his head. I turned to face Ed and stared at him as well.
"Yes I'm quite fine." I answered once again with no emotions in my voice of how I actually felt.
"You're quite a bad liar, silver nightmare." I heard from the door way. I turned my cold emotionless expression on Mustang who had a bundle of flowers in his hands. I raised a eyebrow at him, my face staying the way it was, emotionless.
He walked into the room and stuffed the flowers right in my face. I grabbed the flowers and moved them away from my face. I looked up at Mustang, who was smirking down at me. I looked down at the flowers.
"Those are for you." he says. I look up at him and what I did next surprised everyone. I really didn't know why I did it, but I just felt emotionless and drained.
I threw the flowers in the trash and got up. I moved to where my pants laid and put them on. I removed the hospital dress I was in and threw it on the floor.
"Elizabeth!" I heard behind me. I turned around and stared at Ed who was glowing red along with Mustang.
"YOU DON'T HAVE BREAST BANDEGES ON!" Ed yelled throwing himself on top of me. I felt my face go crimson. I looked up and saw my shirt. I grabbed it and pulled it on. Once it was on I kicked Ed in the stomach and pushed him off of me. I grabbed my jacket and pulled it on. Then I located my boots and put those on as well. I then got the fuck out of the dreaded hospital and ran like hell itself was after me.
I ran outside and kept running. I wasn't running to anywhere in particular, but apparently my legs knew where to go. My legs took me to the last place I wanted to be. The ally where I found Nina/Alexander. Everything looked back to normal, nothing looked out of place, it didn't look like there was a child and her dog splattered on this wall everything looked like nothing happen. I slowly walked up to the wall and touched it. A silent tear ran down my face as I remembered everything.
"I know you both are happy now." I whisper to the wall as more tears ran down my face.
"Have fun, where ever you two are, I'll miss you two but I hope you two are happy." I say a smile on my face. I turn and leave the ally feeling much better. I make my way to central command and I feel relieved and the knot in my chest disappeared.
When I make it to central I'm greeted by the stuck up receptionist. I payed her no attention as I make my way to Mustangs office. Even though I was happier my emotionless expression didn't. I knew Ed and Al would be there, I wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, I wanted to get back on the rode to finding the philosophers stone. I open the door to Mustang's office and am greeted by a blond tackling me to the ground. I fall backwards and hit my head against the wall.
I bring my hand to my head and glare at Edward, who was now hugging me and crying at the same time. I stare at him at first with anger but then with kindness. I hugged my overly protective brother and kissed him on the forehead. He looked up at me and touched his forehead to mine. I gave him a very small smile in order to reassure him that I was fine and okay. He nodded, understanding, and helped me off the ground. When we were both back on our feet he turned around and headed back into the office. I took this as an opportunity. I ran and kicked him right on the back sending him flying strait towards Mustang. Ed hit Mustang's desk and fell backward onto the floor.
I walked casually into the office.
"Next time, don't tackle me into a wall." I say to him as I sit down. Ed sat next to me and pouted. I rolled my eyes and turned to face Mustang. He raised an eyebrow and motioned me to speak.
"I want to continue our search on the philosophers stone." I say to him strait and forward. "I need to get away from the city for awhile as well." I added. The expressions Mustangs face went through was just heart breaking. Anger, disbelief, horror, anger, and sadness, and once again anger.
"You cannot leave at the moment because we still need you here." he says with a now strait face. I glared at him. I wanted to leave, I needed to leave and he was denying it from me. I didn't think so.
"Mustang I need to leave, I don't want to be here, I want to go search for that wretched stone so I can have my body back!" I yelled at him as my emotionless face turned to a face full of anger and hatred.
"You are a dog of the military, you need to follow orders, and until I give you orders to find that stone; you and your brothers will stay here." he says in voice full of command. My anger rose by the minuet. I wanted to punch him in the face, I wanted to kick him senseless, I wanted to take all of my wretched emotions that I had bottled up and take it out on him.
"You have no idea how much I want to kick your ass right now, you fire wielding mother fucker." I say to him in a hushed voice. "But I can't because that is against the rules." I made my way to the window and jump out. Somehow that had become my new escape route. I snapped my fingers and my shadow crashed my landing once again. I looked up at my shocked brothers and Mustang and make my way home.
I didn't want to be there I wanted to be alone. I didn't want to deal with Nina/Alexander's death, I just wanted to be alone. I made it home, without bursting into tears, but once inside closed doors; I burst into tears. I crumpled to the floor and made myself into a ball. I cried myself to sleep, without noticing.
(dream world)
My dream was filled with sadness. It was filled with sorrow. It was filled with dead people. Mother, Nina, Alexander, and Al's body. They were all urging me to come to them and leave my misery. I wanted to go to them with all my might, but something had me rooted to the ground.
I looked around for the cause of this and found him. I glared at him as he had that stupid smile on his face.
"Hello again child, how are you?" he asked.
"You, I have nothing to say to a bastard like you." I say turning around and watch as everyone disappeared. I turned back and glared at the damn person.
"Why do you alter my dreams you damn bastard?" I ask him enraged.
"Well for one it's funny and two because you need to move on, people die and you need to move forward got it, so be a good girl from now on got it." he says disappearing. I glared at the empty space. I dropped onto the floor and cried once again.
(Mustang)
I watched as Elizabeth jumped out the window and land on her shadow. I see her glare up at me and then walk away.
"This is your fault!" I heard Ed yell next to me. I turned to stare at him but I found him being restraint by Al.
"Calm down brother." I heard him say. Edward glared at me. He brushed off Al and left my office. I sigh heavily and sit back down on my very comfy chair. I placed my hands on my forehead and massage my temple and looked up at the ceiling.
"Way to go, Coronal Mustang." I hear someone say from the door way.
"Not in the mood Hawkeye." I say knowing it was her without looking.
"I know I'm out of place for saying this but, you should had let her go. She needs to leave and clear her head, and she's not going to do that here." she says before I hear the door close softly. I keep staring up and never look down. Before I know it, it's already night and the moon was out. I slowly get up and grab my things. I drive home, not bothering in getting anything to eat. I head straight home. I open the door and find something shocking.
She lay there on the floor in a cold sweat. She was shivering from head to toe. She kept mumbling things I couldn't really catch. I slowly pick her head off the ground and feel her forehead, which was burning. I lifted her off the ground and headed upstairs with her in my arms.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." she kept mumbling over and over in a heart wrenching whisper. I made it to her room and placed her on the bed. I then headed down stairs and grabbed a bucket and filled it up with cold water. I headed upstairs and place it next to her bed. I grabbed some extra blankets from her closet and then grabbed a hand towel from her bathroom. I dipped it into the bucket and squeezed it and place it on her forehead. I moved to her closet and grabbed some extra clothing. I knew she would kill me for this when she woke up but right now I didn't give a damn. I removed her pants first then I slipped my hands underneath her shirt with a cloth clutched in my hands. I placed it over her breast blushing greatly as I did this. I then proceeded by removing her shirt. Thanking whoever that the cloth stayed and covered her breast while I put her in another shirt. I removed the now hot towel and re-dipped int into the cold water and placed it back on her forehead. I kept doing this process for many hours, but her temperature didn't drop. At one point I became frantic. She wasn't getting any better.
"Elizabeth please wake up." I whisper to her. She didn't respond. I tried again. Nothing.
"Elizabeth please wake up."' I say my voice going into a worried voice. I've been in more horrible situations but this one had me on my toes, this had me on the edge of tears. I was scared, scared she wouldn't wake up.
"Please wake up." I say frantic. But once again no respond.
"I'll let you go anywhere, just wake up." I whisper not trusting myself to go louder, afraid that my voice would falter and I would go into tears. But what I saw next was truly amazing. Elizabeth slowly open her eyes. She looked to where I was sitting and gave me her evil smirk.
"Thanks for taking care of me, bastard." were the last words she said before slipping into unconsciousness.
I felt my head hit the edge of the bed from exhaustion, and slept int bliss.
(Next Morning)
Elizabeth:
I awoke to the bright morning. I turned my head to see the sun. I smiled weakly and then turned my head to the other side where I found him asleep. I slowly brought my hand out of my blanket cocoon and slightly push Mustang's sleeping form. He fell to the floor like a rock. I got up on my elbows and saw him land in a bucket of water. He was staring up at me, I smiled brightly.
"Seems like you've had a little accident." I say smiling evilly. He gave me one of those type of smiles that wasn't really a smile. He got up and left to his room. I smiled and got up. I looked down and noticed that I was wearing my old clothing. I shrugged and headed to my closet and grabbed some of my pants put them on, and then head down stairs. I grab the phone and dial central command's barracks. I give them my information and they find Ed for me.
"Elizabeth how are you? Are you okay? Are you hurt?" he asked in a panic. I chuckle lightly at his outburst.
"Ed I'm fine, and pack your things we're leaving, Mustang gave us permission." I say feeling light headed. Ed said something to me before hanging up and then I packed my things. I still felt light headed but I ignore it and left Mustangs house with happiness. I made my way to Central and found Ed and Al sitting by a fountain.
"Ed?Al?" I asked getting near them. They both looked up and Ed gave me a light smile. I sat next to him and looked up at the cloudy sky. It looked like it was going to rain. I turned and faced to look at Ed. He looked depressed. 'So her death not only affected only me.' I think looking at my brother. I felt something hit my head and looked up as the sky let rain fall. I smiled as I felt the rain hit my face. I brought my face to Ed shoulder and then kissed his cheek knowing well that he needed my comfort. He cupped my cheek and kissed my cheek as well. I smiled softly at him and motion him to stand up. We all got up and then turned to leave.
Only to find a strange man looking at us. I looked at him confused. He seemed familiar.
"Are you all the Elrics?" he asked us. I raised and unsteady eyebrow.
"Who's looking for them?" I ask him, not trusting him.
"I bring punishment to those who have steered away from the path of god." he says raising his arm. I step back remembering who he was. He was the guy from the library. At that moment he hit the floor and the floor exploded. I jumped backwards and headed for the stairs, Al and Ed right behind me. We went down the stairs only to find ourselves falling backwards.
"Al!"
"Elizabeth"
"Edward!" we all yell at the same time as we fell backwards. I heard a loud clap and I was on solid ground. I get up fast and we all run the hell out of there. We make it to town only to be attacked by that maniac. I turned back and saw something that made me stop right where I was. He jabbed his arm right to Al right side and he exploded.
"AL!" I yell surrounding him with my shadow. I heard of something being transmuted and saw Ed charge.
"NO!" I yell as I see the strange man's arm come into contact with Ed auto-mail, causing it to destroy on the spot, and leaving Ed powerless. Ed fell backwards and look up in terror. That was when I charged and tackled the man to the floor. He threw me off him and I hit my head and back against the wall.
I gasped in pain unable to scream out in pain. He turned to face me, and I could have sworn I saw red eyes behind those glasses.
"Wait your turn I'll get to you after I finish with you brother." my eyes grew wider by the moment as I saw him move towards Ed. Tears ran down my face as he went closer. I tried to move my arms to stop him but they wouldn't move! Tears ran down as I grew panicky as the man stood over Ed.
"Any last words?" I heard him ask him. Ed and I made eye contact and then I saw dust. I felt my breath get stuck in my throat as I only saw dust. But what I saw next was like a gift from whoever the hell created us. In front of my brother stood a shirtless man with extremely big body. My tears flowed with happiness.
"Get away from this young boy you evil bastard." he says striking a pose before hitting the floor once again and sending the man jumping backwards. I slowly made myself get onto my feet and grab onto the man. I held his arm away from each other and held him like that until he knocked me off his back and then he stopped and I saw him smirk. I look over to were he was looking at and saw Mustang he was frowning and then I saw him pull on his gloves. I looked up to the sky and stared wide eyed. It was still raining. I looked back at Mustang and he was charging towards the man.
"This is your end scar!" I heard him yell as he snapped his fingers and instead of his magnificent flame shooting out of his fingers, a puff of smoke came out. I felt my jaw fall open. And then the buff man was in front of Mustang and he protected Mustang. I heard gun shots and then an explosion. I looked around and saw nothing, only dust. I crawled over to Ed and he pulled me close to him and I tried to move my arms to hold Ed but my arms would not move. We both looked up when we saw the dust move away. My jaw hung open as I saw the big hole in the middle of the street. I look around and see a very pissed off Mustang and frantic soldiers.
"AL!" I hear Ed yell before he let me go and move towards him as I fall backwards and then see Al on the other side of the big hole. I ignore my pain filled legs and arms and run to my big brothers, only to be punched in the face. I touch my hurt face and pout at Al and Ed.
"I told both of you to run, why didn't neither of you listen to me? It doesn't matter if I die, you two need "to stay alive in order to get all of our bodies back to normal." Al says as I stare at him, still shocked that he punched me.
"You told me to run?" I say not remembering.
"Yes I did!" he says punching Ed again. " Oh now my arm fell off, that's just great!" Al yells. I crack a smile and then chuckle lightly. Then pass out.
I awake to day light and also to the smell of a horrible place. I look around and-
HOSPITAL!
I try to get out of the wretched place but then fall to the white unstained floor. I look around where the hell were Al and Ed when I need them. I drag myself to the other side of the room which was covered by a curtain and find Ed and Al, plus Mustang and the really strong dude looking at me. I slightly smile Mustang moved to help me up from the floor at once. He grabbed me by my arm and I cried out in pain.
"AH!" I say as he releases me. I fall back to the ground and hit the floor. My eyes began to fill with tears, but did not spill.
"Sorry." Mustang says. He tries to pick me up again but it was too painful.
"May be of assistance?" the big buff dude says coming to the side where I laid on the floor. He place an arm behind my back and then placed an arm underneath my back. I scrunched up my face in pain but did not cry out in pain. He placed me next to Ed on the bed and then moved back. Ed covered my my bare legs and I eased back on the pillow. I smiled slightly at him.
"So what were you talking about before I made a idiot of myself?" I asked as I give them a smile.
"Well for one we need to go to our mechanics place, so we need to put our little search on hold for a few days, K?" Ed says smiling. I smiled at the idea of returning to out home, but a sudden pain filled my chest thinking of returning as well.
" And you three will be accompanied by major Armstrong." Mustang said. I looked over to where the buff dude stood and smiled.
"Oh goody." I say remembering that I was in hospital, and once again I frowned.
"I HATE HOSPITALS!"
Hope everyone enjoyed it. Please give me your feed back.
