The Accident Chapter 26

Ed got up and ran to the cell door. "Hurry up and open the door so we can get out of here!"

The military officer opened the cell door and Ed hugged Captain Gerald. "I'm so glad you guys came." Ed was so happy to see a military officer he didn't see the look on Gerald's face when he hugged him. Ed looked up as he let him go. "Hey Gerald let's hurry up and get out of here."

He looked at him calmly. "We can't go anywhere."

Ed looked at him strange. "Why not,"

Gerald came up to Ed and punched him in the lower abdomen. This is why!" Gerald said in a voice of anger.

Sena screamed and Ed fell to the floor gasping for air. Sena ran up to Gerald and clawed him across the chest where it ripped his shirt and left five nasty cuts. He stumbled back yelling in pain. Sena immediately ran to Ed's side. Ed let out a yell, grabbing his stomach with everything he had.

"Edd! No! Come on hang in there."

Ed couldn't believe what was happening. He was shocked that Gerald would hit him. Did he know he was pregnant?

Gerald got up and came back over towards them staggering and holding his chest, he was angry at Sena for slashing him but he really wanted to hurt Ed. "I hate you Edward Elric and all that you stand for! I wouldn't dare rescue you from these doctors!"

Ed looked up at him with a vengeful look. "You bastard…I-I didn't do… anything to you! Oww!" He bent back down.

"Ed, please! Don't try and talk. Just breathe!" Sena said rubbing his back.

"I hate State Alchemists, they think there so important and especially, a pregnant one. I'm glad the Fuehrer and Hohenheim donated to this place for a good cause! " He smirked holding his chest. We have been planning this for a long time!" He sneered.

"M-My dad and Mustang contributed to this place! Oww!" Ed swallowed and looked at Gerald. "Y-You're lying! T-They would never do that!" Ed was angry with him for hurting his baby. He swallowed and put his pain aside as he leaped on Gerald so fast he didn't see it coming or Sena. Ed punched him hard in the face making him hit the wall and his nose bleed. Ed grabbed his stomach and fell back on his knees as the contractions kept coming."

Professor Donovan came in the room. "What the hell is going on here? Someone said there was yelling coming from in here. Donovan looked at Gerald getting up to go past him to leave out the door and Sena stayed by Ed's side. He saw Ed in a lot of pain and immediately attended to him. "What happen here?" Ed couldn't say anything. Dr. Donovan looked at Sena who was upset and afraid for Ed.

"Gerald came in here and punched Ed in the stomach. I-I don't know why he hit him."

"He did what!" I'll kill him for this! "Help me stand him up."

Ed yelled. "Noo! It hurts!"

"Ed we have to take you to the lab! You could be bleeding."

Ed grabbed on to Donovan's lab coat. "Please, save my baby… don't take it from me! Oww!"

Sena was already in tears and she was surprised to hear Ed say that after the comment he made about the abortion. It made her realize that he does care about the baby.

At Central High Al was standing in front of Kira at his locker when he felt a strong wave of pain strike his heart. "Ow! Brother!" Al fell to his knees as Kira followed him down to the floor looking at him worried. "Al what's wrong, are you alright?!

"Brother! There's something wrong with brother." He said holding his chest.

"What's wrong with Ed?" Kira looked at him.

"I-I don't know but I don't feel right about something."

"Mr. Elric, is there a reason why you are on your knees?"

Kira got up. "Were sorry Mr. Quimby we…"

"I-I'm not feeling well. I just felt strange."

Mr. Quimby looked down to look at Al. "You do look sort of pale. Maybe you should go see the school nurse."

"That's a good idea." Kira said as she helped Al up. Kira grabbed his hand and walked away. "Al what's wrong, your not yourself. Did you and Ed have a fight?"

Al rubbed his chest. "No…I just have a bad feeling about my brother."

She stopped walking to look at him. "Why don't you call him on his cell and find out if he's okay."

He looked down. "I can't."

"Why not?"

He swallowed. "Ed was kidnapped yesterday."

"No…" She hugged him. "…Al, why didn't you tell me?"

"I was really worried and I didn't want to make you worry either."

"Al, if you know something like this happened. You should have said something. I think you should see the nurse. You look stressed. Come on lets go to the nurse's office."

&&&

Sena and Dr Donovan brought Ed in the medical room. "Let's get him on the table.

Ed yelled because of the contractions. Professor Starks came quickly in the room because he heard yelling. "What the hell is going on? What happened?"

"Gerald made a visit to Ed's cell to hurt him. I'll fill you in later but right now we need to make sure Ed's not bleeding." Professor Starks helped them with Ed. A few nurses came in the room because of all the commotion. Donovan pulled the ultrasound machine over to check the baby.

Ed was sweating on his face. "P-Please… don't let me lose my baby!"

Sena was crying and telling Ed to breathe and calm down.

"Nurse, please take Sena back to her cell we have work to do here." Donovan noted.

"No, please I want to know if Ed is going to be okay!"

Professor Starks looked at her. "We will tell you once we get him stabilize and pain free!"

The nurse took her outside and few of the guards were coming up the hall so she asked them to take her back. They took Sena back to her cell while the nurses went back to the room. The nurse held down Ed's arm while Donovan gave him pain medicine to stop the contractions. The pain subsided some not totally but Donovan was able to take the ultrasound without Ed squirming. The nurse put an oxygen mask over Ed's nose. Sena was lying on her bed worried about the baby and Ed. That jerk, how could he hit him like that! I hope Ed's going to be okay.

Al got in the car with his dad following. Hohenheim closed the door. He spoke to the driver to take them home. He turned to Al who looked stressed and pale. "Are you going to be alright Al?"

"I think so."

He spoke calmly. "The nurse said your blood pressure was up a little. She said you probably had a panic attack."

Al grabbed his dad's arm with urgency. "Dad, I felt that something was wrong with brother. I don't think it was a panic attack!"

"What did you feel?"

"I just felt something bad…I don't know how to describe it. Sometimes when something really bad happens to one of us it's like, me and Ed can feel it."

Hohenheim massaged his shoulder. "Son, I want you to not worry. Roy and the army are doing everything they can to find Ed."

"Did you find out anything about Ed or where he could be?"

"No, but everyone is out there looking for him. Al I just want you to go home and lay down for a while. I'll brew some medicated anti-stress tea for you." Hohenheim was worried about Al, now. He didn't want Al to worry but he couldn't help it. He pulled Al close to him and comforted his son.

&&&

"How are you feeling Ed? Are you in pain?" Dr. Donovan asked. Ed nodded as the oxygen mask was over his mouth. "Ed, I want you to squeeze my hand so I can tell how much pain you're in. Squeeze it hard if it's a lot or squeeze it soft if it's not so bad." Ed squeezed his hand soft. Donovan needed to talk with the Professor about the ultrasound.

Ed took his oxygen mask off. "T-The baby how is the baby?" He said worried.

Donovan was calm. "Don't worry about the baby Ed, its fine."

"Then… why do I keep having contractions."

"Listen, Gerald upset you… you just need to stay calm. Put the oxygen back on. I want the baby to have as much oxygen it can. The nurse is going to watch your vitals I need for you to stay calm, I'll be right back."

Donovan walked out the medical room and two doors down was another lab but a surgical one. He walked in and closed the door. He picked up a scalpel and threw it up against the wall where it stayed stuck.

Professor Starks walked in and saw the scalpel and the look on Donovan's face. "I hope your not practicing; it's sort of dangerous to do that in here."

"Please, don't joke at a time like this!"

"Well I got the results back and it doesn't look good." Donovan grabbed the papers out of the Professors hand and started reading them."

"Would you tell me what the hell is going on Donovan! Why is Ed having contractions right now and what did Gerald do!"

Donovan was so pist, he folded the paper and placed his left hand on side. "That idiot punched Ed in the stomach. He knew Ed was pregnant!"

"No wonder there is some hemorrhaging! What the hell was he thinking!?"

"I don't know what he was thinking but I want to talk with Gerald."

"You know we could lose…"

"Don't say that!!" Snapped Donovan. He sighed as he gave the paper back to the Professor and went out the room quickly.

Grandmother Pinako came in the back room where Winry was working on an auto mail part for a customer that needed it fixed. She put her tea down on the table. "Winry, what's going on? You've been sort of quiet since yesterday. Is there something going on?"

She sighed as she put her pliers down. Tears streamed down her face as she wiped them. Her voice sounded shaky as she spoke. "G-Grandmother Ed has been kidnapped."

"Kidnapped, who the hell would want to kidnap him?""

"The Professor that Ed worked with. He did this."

She walked over to Winry and hugged her. She held Winry and looked at her. "This is crazy! How could this happen? Didn't the Fuehrer see anything suspicious!? Or was he in the office sleeping."

Winry came out of her grandmothers arms and grabbed some tissues from the box on the table. "I don't know grandmother but Al called me this morning and told me what was going on. He said that they haven't found anything, but they are searching."

&&&

Three guards followed Donovan down the hall. He was quiet, but highly upset. He went in every room to look for Gerald. He came to the last room. It was a medical room with supplies for surgery and band-aids for any type of wound. Donovan came in the room and told the guards to stay outside. He closed the door. "It looks like somebody got there nose broke and chest slashed." Donovan said in a calm pist voice as he saw the bandages covering his nose and the deep scratch marks on his chest.

"That bastard broke my…"

Donovan quickly grabbed Gerald by the collar and pushed him up against the wall with a gun. Gerald yelled in pain as Donovan pointed it to his head. "What the hell is wrong with you?! Do you realize what the fuck you've done! I could care less if he broke your nose! He should have broken your ass! You hurt my baby and you put my experiment in a lot of pain!"

"I hate…"

Donovan punched him in the stomach. He bent over almost falling to his knees. Donovan pulled him up and pushed him back up against the wall with a rage of anger on his face and in his voice. "Isn't that what you did to Ed!? I could care less about who you hate! If you want to fight with Ed, do it when he's done having the baby! Otherwise… don't touch him!"

Donovan let go of his collar and Gerald dropped to the floor. He looked up at Donovan like he wanted to kill him.

Donovan squatted down spinning the gun on his index finger. He spoke with a very cold tone in his voice. "If Ed dies or the baby, you die!" Donovan got up and left the room and closed the door. "Make sure he doesn't leave the building." He told the guards as he walked back to the Professors office.

Donovan walked in the office with the Professor looking frustrated. "Where have you been? We have an emergency!"

Donovan took off his lab coat. "I know that, let's prepare Ed for surgery."

"Are you sure about this? We could lose him and the baby."

"Look, we have to stop the bleeding with out harming the fetus."

"Remember Donovan we are not dealing with a woman."

"I'm very much aware of that. We have no choice but to do this if we want the bleeding to stop. Remember my little plan that I wanted to try."

"Yes…you're going to do that, now?"

"Yes I am. We do need to make sure that the baby is in the right position where it should be. Come on Professor we have a baby to save." Donovan said as he removed his white shirt and replaced with a surgical blue scrub.

At Central headquarters, in Roy's office. "I don't give a dam about some search warrant! I'm the dam Fuehrer and I have every right to search the premises. You tell those bastards to call me if they have a problem!" Roy slammed the phone down. "Dam it!" He grabbed his shoulder as the pain passed through it. He sat down with his free hand going through his hair. I've never been so stressed and worried. I haven't heard any good leads and it's almost noon.

Hawkeye walked in and saluted. "Sir I have some good news." His eyes shifted with a sexy mean look on his face that Hawkeye wanted to faint for. She never saw that look on Roy's face before. But she gathered her strength and put her feelings to the side.

"I hope it's better then what I've been hearing. I can't take another call with people saying they saw Ed here and there. They even said that he was seen being taken by a big hairy monster that ran off in the woods."

Riza almost laughed when he said that. She quickly cleared her throat.

"Dam, this feels hopeless!" Roy took his arm out of the slang that it was in.

"Sir, I don't think that's a good idea…"

"Hawkeye, please, I know I shouldn't do this but I can't help it. I'm worried and stressed and in pain. I have a headache and I really don't feel like anyone telling me about my shoulder."

"Sir I like to fill you in on some good news."

Roy leaned back in his chair. "Okay." He said waiting.

"The soldiers found a brown van abandoned in the woods outside Central City."

Roy almost fell out the chair when he heard that. "What!" He sat up straight. "That's the vehicle Dr. Reed said he seen them drove off in."

"Here's a picture of that."

Mustang looked at the picture. "What ever search team that found this van, I want it dusted for prints, hairs, and blood from top to bottom. I want those results to run through the crime lab computer to see if it will match up to any criminal and tell them to put a rush on those results. I want the results in five hours and I want you to take this picture to Dr. Reed's office in Central Hospital. I expect an answer in a few hours about this picture."

Hawkeye saluted. "Yes sir." She left the office.

Hohenheim walked in with a frustrated look. "Are we being frisked before we can come in the building?"

"Have a seat Hohenheim. I'm sorry about that but we are checking anyone coming in this building. Since Ed was kidnapped here I'm not taking any chances on anyone coming through that door without some reason for being here."

"So, have you heard any good news?"

"Actually, yes, the good news is that they found the brown van that Ed was taken in."

"Good," Hohenheim was excited.

"The bad news is… Ed was not in the van and it was abandoned outside Central."

"So they could have got in another vehicle and left."

"Or, they could have walked on foot to where they were going. I have soldiers checking the van for anything."

"They may not be far."

"That's good if there not. I just was swamped this morning with phone calls, of sightings of Ed."

"You're giving your arm a break from the sling, I see."

Roy took two pain pills out the drawer and swallowed with some water. "I just took it out because I felt pain and I wanted to stretch my arm."

"Your shoulder still hurts?"

"Not really, it's my head. I had a rough morning."

"I had a rough morning too."

"I'm sorry this hasn't been easy for you, Hohenheim."

"Well, I had to go pick Al up from school. The nurse said he had a panic attack and his blood pressure was up a little."

"Poor kid, he really is worried about his brother, but who could blame him. Those two are so close. I wouldn't put it pass Al if he could tell if his brother is in danger."

"Actually, you're right."

Mustang looked at him strange. "What do you mean?"

"Al said he felt something wrong with Ed."

"I hope he's wrong about this. That's all I need, for Ed to get hurt and we can't protect him."

&&&

Ed looked up at Donovan as he lay there on the operating table. "What's happening to me? I feel drowsy."

Donovan was having his gloves put on by the nurse as he spoke to Ed. "It's the anesthesia taking effect."

Ed's voice was starting to drag. "Why… am I in another room? W-What's going on?"

"Don't worry Ed were going to fix everything. When you wake up everything will be fine." Donovan said with a calm look.

Ed's eyes closed as he fell asleep.

"Ok Professor it's time to get to work."
