They arrived home a few minutes later only to see Edward's empty Wheelchair laying sideways on the lawn with a very distraught Selim howling beside it.
...
Edward glared defiantly at the man he once thought was his father. The man didn't even bother to tie him up as he laid him on the hotel bed. HE was too weak to move and Hoeinhem knew it. He promptly began to set up a video camera and position it just so in front of the bed. "Now I know that your idiotic mother gave you and your brother a load of money." Hoeinhem said slowly.
"Yea what of it? It's not like i can spend it. My half is to be used towards medical treatments and medication only so i can get better." Edward informed his kidnapper with a glare. "ANd frankly if you think that I am going to give you my life money..you got another thing coming." Edward growled seeing where this was going.
"I don't see why you should be waisting money like that..Its not like its helping..I mean look at you." Hoeinhem accused. "You look like shit..Like you could just die at any moment." He said dismissively with a snort.
Edward tried to hold back his tears as he himself was beginning to fill with doubt. He was after all too weak to walk little less crawl on his bad days. While he was eating he was unable to hold solids and even couldn't have his coffee any more because it made him sick. His once beautiful long gold hair that he once was so proud of was now limp and dull colored. His once creamy skin was now ashen gray. However despite that.. he was told... the doctors said..he was getting better.. They promised him.. that he would more than likely be better come next year.. that he was progressing.. they told him...
Edward began to hyperventilate as his wide eyes darted this way and that frantically not really looking at anything in particular. He didn't even notice that the bastard had finished setting everything up and that it was now turned on facing him. "I'm going to get better..." Edward muttered to himself now managing to find his voice. "I am not going to die... I promised them.. they...Dad..promised me." He wailed as tears fell down his pain streaked face. Forgetting about the camera Hoeinhiem leaned down wondering why the boy was in pain. "Ho..What is wrong with you?" He asked scratching his head. Edward however didn't respond he only continued to stare at nothing a look of panic. He opened his mouth slightly but didn't say anything. Only stared blankly ahead leaving Hoeinhem to wonder just what he did wrong.
...Later...
Roy paced the living room as Alphonse kept petting Selim to keep himself had only been a half hour since he found out that his son was kidnapped. It was only 5 minutes after that Half hour that the doorbell rang and they found the tape.
... Roy put it in the vhs player without even a moments thought and sat down. A moment later a hyperventilating Edward filled the screen it was clear to Roy and Alphonse that not only was he not aware of the camera but also panicking and clearly Ill. "I am not going to die..Dad...he promised me." They saw Edward whimper. What had the bastard told him? Roy thought furiously. Both Alphonse and him gasped when they saw that Edward was beginning to hallucinate. It was than of course they remembered that Edward was behind on his medication...this was a grave situation indeed.
Hoeinhem's face filled the screen with a bored look on his face. "Look just give me his inheritance and I will give him back. " He said with a yawn. "I really don't have the energy to take care of this kid.. I think he is not all there if you get my meaning." He whispered despite the fact that Ed more than likely couldn't hear him anyways. Hoeinhem brought Edwards face into the camera once more. It was no longer blank but wide in fear. He cringed and tried to get away from the man's touch. "No..No..I don't want to...not yet... not my time." Edward screeched as he squirmed some more.
"You bastard put him down..He needs his medication moron!" Alphonse yelled angrily at the screen. "and whatever nonsense you have been telling him prolly hasn't helped!" He felt his dad's hand on his shoulder and turned to stare at a equally furious Roy. They both silently watched as The kidnapper gave them instructions on where to meet him later that day. They took mental note and swore vengeance. That monster was going to pay.
