I don't own Fullmetal Alchemist or the characters.

The Accident chapter 36

Roy was in physical pain he didn't want to answer him. He wanted to call off the meeting and go home.

"I heard something about Chimera's, male pregnancy, experimenting in a lab. What's going on Roy I thought we put an end to the whole Chimera thing! I thought there were no more experiments like that being performed."

"Dad there wasn't any of that going on until brother lied to me!" He said looking at Donovan.

He stood in front of both of them. "Please prove me wrong because my government officials are asking questions.

Roy sighed as he explained everything to the General. He told him the truth about everything. Donovan opened up his big mouth and said that Roy and Ed had something going on in secret. The General heard all of this and he was totally blown away by everything that was said. He didn't like raising his voice unless it was necessary. But he talked with authority and strength. Ed came to the door and heard talking he cracked the doors and listened to get better volume. No one in the hall was able to see him because he was behind the first set of doors before you entered Roy's office.

"So Donovan you went and lied to your brother about building a clinic when all along you were performing experiments. Son, have you lost your god dam mind!"

Donovan swallowed. "Father no I…"

"Quiet when I am talking!"

Ed whispered as he looked through the crack of the door. "Father? The General is their father."

"I can't believe my oldest son would experiment with human DNA and Chimera. What were you thinking!?"

"He funded it so I was able to do it!"

"You lied to your brother Donovan! You made him believe it was for something else! I can't believe this! Two humans were involved one was changed into a chimera and you took a teenage boy and you forced pregnancy on him with Chimera DNA!" Their dad was running his hands through his hair. "How? Just how, am I going to explain this to the government!?" He looked at Roy. "And you… are having relations with this young man!"

Roy tried to explain. "Dad. No. you…"

"Quiet when I'm talking! My two sons are alchemist and both have served in the military. You have disgraced me with ridiculous news! So one is experimenting on him and one of you is fucking him!"

"Dad it's not like that!" Roy quickly said before his dad closed him down.

"Man he's chewing the hell out of them! That bastard Donovan deserves every word." Ed smirked.

"My two son's who me and your mother have raised well are performing experiments and one is having relations with a young man." His dad sat down and shook his head. "You know who I feel sorry for in all this mess it's the young man Ed and the Chimera! And second I feel sorry for you Fuehrer for being lied too and I feel sorry for my oldest son because he's lost his dam mind! I don't know what to do here! I have to report back in the next few days with what happened and we have to have a private trial about what were going to do about this. Since it's against the law now to do experiments on animals and humans we may have to get rid of the baby you created."

Ed gasped. No, they can't get rid of my baby! I won't allow it!

"Dad that's impossible an abortion would kill Ed."

"Son we have to undo what's been done."

"Dad I don't want to make that suggestion."

"It's not for you to make it's for me to make that decision." Roy didn't want this to happen. This is what he dreaded. Donovan didn't want what he created to go down the drain he wanted to see the outcome of his experiment.

He looked at Donovan. "I'm sorry son, but performing illegal experiments calls for jail time and the experiment destroyed. Since Sena is human and Chimera we may have to lock her away or will have to decide in the private trial what we should do. Ed, well…were going to have to take the baby from him at birth if it can't be removed."

"Dad, please, no! You can't!" Roy pleaded.

Ed ran through the doors with anger clinging to his voice. "You won't take my baby! I'll fight you to the ends of the earth if I have to!" Stopping at the couch with a stubborn look of assurance at the General,

The General turned around and got up. "Who are you to come barging in with out permission!"

Roy looked shocked. He stood up. "Lieutenant Major, what the hell are you doing here!? Didn't I tell you not to come!?"

"I'm sorry to interrupt and disobey orders sir, but, it's not fair… you can't take my baby! It doesn't belong to you! It's mine!"

The General walked towards Ed. Roy was giving sign language for him to be quiet.

"State your name." He said as he stood in front of him.

He saluted. "Lieutenant Major Edward Elric, sir!"

"At ease, so, you're the one that's pregnant."

Ed swallowed. "Yes sir."

"Aren't you angry at what my son has done to you?"

"Yes sir."

"Wouldn't you want to get rid of it?"

"I did at the beginning and I asked but it can't be done because abortions haven't been done on men. The doctor said that I may not survive the operation because of the loss of blood."

He sighed as he turned his head to look at Donovan. "Son, do you realize what you have done to this young mans life."

"Yes… I have, I…"

"NO YOU HAVEN'T!" He said as he shouted at Donovan which echoed around the room. "As far as I'm concerned you have no idea! What you've done!"

Roy was quiet. Whenever his dad raises his voice everything in the room gets quiet. It even scared Ed a little.

"I'm sorry Lieutenant we may have to take the baby it's against the law for you to carry half animal and human."

"Please General it took me a long time to get use to this but now that I am… I enjoy every minute of it. We know that men don't get pregnant and have babies but sir I'm happy to be carrying it."

The General looked at him. "Son do you realize it takes responsibility to raise children it's not a bad thing but it's something you have to be ready for. Look your young you've got the next five years to think about having children when you're a little older."

Ed had tears in his voice. Ed touched his stomach. "Sir, I love my baby and I don't want to give it away. What was done to me shouldn't have happened."

The General could tell he wanted to keep the child and it would devastate him if they took it away. The General sighed. "Listen I'm a man that goes by the law I don't believe in abortions unless it's life threatening. You don't know if the baby may turn out to look like a hideous monster. Are you willing to take that risk?"

"Yes and no. But do I have a choice?"

"May I touch the baby?"

Ed nodded.

He felt his stomach. "It seems like you carry a strong child. Does it hurt?"

"If I don't stress it won't."

The General moved his hand and walked towards Roy and Donovan. "I have to think about all these things and I will let you know tomorrow afternoon. I want statement from Ed. Also I want to see this Chimera Sena and if she talks I want a statement from her."

"Yes General." Roy said feeling responsible and under pressure.

He turned around to walk towards Ed. "I'm very sorry I didn't introduce myself." He stopped in front of Ed. "I'm General Maxwell Donovan, Roy, Mustang."

"Sir," Ed saluted and then turned to leave he was afraid and not very happy.

"Dad I'm going to have Donovan taken back to his cell."

"Father, don't I get bail?"

"I'm sorry son but you're a danger to the community and I don't trust you."

Hearing that, felt like a left hook to the jaw for Donovan.

Roy called Hawkeye's office. She came to the room and saluted the General and took Donovan back to his cell.

Roy took off his blue jacket and put his head into his hands as he faced the window. He was stressed.

"Son, are you feeling alright you didn't look too well when you were sitting in the chair."

He turned around. "I'm just stressed, tired, and angry!" said Roy expressing himself by the moving of his arms.

"I wasn't going to come in here screaming and yelling but I didn't like what I heard. I know that you have a lot riding on you but you can't let this job overwhelm you either. If it's too much maybe I can appoint another Fuehrer."

"Dad I've always wanted this job but I'm just upset about everything and I want to prove myself worthy to fix this situation."

"Son… what's to prove you are worthy of this position."

Roy felt dizzy as his dad was talking he started to stagger he tried to sit in the chair but he passed out. His dad caught him. "Roy! Roy!" He laid him on the floor.

Hawkeye came running in. "What's going… Roy!"

"He passed out when I was talking to him."

"General lets take him to the infirmary."

Ed went in the house and went up to his room. He got his luggage out and started packing. He had to get prepared for whatever decision the General was going to make. He wasn't going to let them take his baby or throw it away like garbage.

Al walked in and saw what was going on. "Where the hell are you going?"

"I'm getting prepared to get as far from here as I possibly can. I can't let the General take my baby."

"Ed slow down no one is going to take your baby."

"The General had a meeting with Mustang and Donovan he has to decide whether to make me have an abortion or take my baby at birth!"

"Ed he might change his mind and not do nether."

"He said he has to think about what decisions he has to make and as soon as he does I'm taking off so no one can find me."

"Stop this! You can't take off, how are you going to take care of the baby?"

"Al I can't let them take my baby and destroy it! It's against the law to experiment with human and animal DNA! I tried to get rid of the baby since I found out but the answer was no!" Tears became his voice. "Now I've grown attached to it. I can't let them take it from me! They can't!"

Al grabbed him by the shoulders and sat him on the bed. "Ed get it together don't lose it. Stay calm."

A knock came to the door and their dad stepped in. "Hey what's going on? I hear loud talking and crying." Hohenheim said as he came and stood by the bed.

Ed wiped his eyes.

"Ed, Al, who's leaving?"

"Ed was packing because he got scared about what decision the General will make."

"Did Roy talk to you?"

"I overheard the General talking in their meeting and I came in the room and I asked the General not take away my baby."

"What were you doing at that meeting? You were supposed to be home. Roy told you not to come; he said he was going to take care of things."

"It looked like to me that the General had the upper hand. He said he would think about taking away the baby."

"If he said that, why are you packing?"

"I'm afraid of the answer; he said if I can't get an abortion they would take it as soon as it's born."

"Ed listen, we don't know what's going to happen you just can't assume that there going to do this. You shouldn't have gone to that meeting I knew you would get upset! Why do you have to be so stubborn? You know what the doctor said about stress. Now put your luggage away and start being responsible!" His dad demanded.

Ed got up off the bed and walked towards his dad. "It's not right for them to do this to me! Dad you can't let them take it away!" Ed didn't care he was worried about the baby.

"Ed calm down before you get sick! I won't have you going to the hospital again." Hohenheim put his hands on Ed's shoulder. "We will find out the answer to what the General has decided when Roy calls us. Until then, don't worry about what the General will say. No answer has been decided." He embraced his son to calm down.

The General and Riza waited out in the waiting room for an answer from the doctor.

"Lieutenant Hawkeye has Roy been like this before?"

"No sir, but if your talking about stress, he's been under a lot of it. He wasn't feeling well since I picked him up this morning. He's been having a lot of headaches lately and it really increased when Ed got kidnapped by Donovan. He's been really blaming himself about what happen to Ed. He felt bad about investing money into Donovan's project that he lied about. Then with Captain Gerald betraying the military and working with Donovan. Gerald had hatred towards Ed and he almost killed his baby. Roy and Donovan have been going head to head with each other ever since he locked Donovan up. Donovan would make stupid remarks and upset Roy. He didn't take Roy seriously."

"This is a mess. Major Elric interrupted our meeting and raised his voice about keeping the baby."

"I'm sorry General I'll have him disciplined."

"No leave him alone he's worried about his baby. He's attached to it and I was talking about getting rid of it. I can't blame him for being protective. Where is Captain Gerald?"

"We are still looking for him."

"You make sure he's found."

"Yes sir."

"My son," His dad sighed. "Now I'm worried, he's been under too much stress. He needs to handle things one at a time and not lose it."

"When Roy found out that Ed was pregnant he found a doctor to take care of him and a nurse that comes by every week to see him."

"So Roy took care of the situation with Ed. He didn't tell me that he appointed a doctor. I was so frustrated with both of my sons I didn't care to ask Roy what he was doing about all this. Although, he did tell me about what happened with Ed getting pregnant and the kidnapping."

The doctor walked in the waiting room. "Are you relatives of Roy?"

"Yes!" His father immediately got up. Hawkeye followed. "How is my son doing?"

"His blood pressure is up and he's exhausted and dehydrated. He was complaining of head and stomach problems. I ordered some test for him. He is awake but in his case as being in a high position, it's good to keep his stress to a minimum. I've already talk to him about that. We want to keep him here overnight to run test and keep an eye on his condition."

"So he's going to be okay." Asked a concerned Riza,

"Yes, for now, he's fine. I just don't want him stressing about nothing."

"Thank you doctor, can we see him."

"Yes right this way."

The middle aged doctor led him down a hall to a private room. Roy was lying in bed with his eyes closed he had a blood pressure velcro wrapped around his arm and an IV in the other. His dad pulled up a chair on one side and Riza on the other. "Hey son, how are you feeling?"

He opened his eyes and spoke with a voice of fatigue. "I'm okay I guess."

Riza touched his hand and spoke to him gently. "I told you to get some rest sir and you didn't listen to me."

He sighed. "I know it's my fault for over doing it."

"Roy, I want you to take it easy and don't worry about being Fuehrer I can take over your position until you get on your feet."

"Dad you didn't come down here to take over my position."

"Son, don't make me call your mother, which I have to do and she's not going to like this."

Roy winced.

"Son, are you in pain?" He said worried.

He swallowed. "Yes."

"I'll go get the nurse." Riza got up quickly.

General Maxwell brushed the hair out of Roy's face telling him soothing words to calm him.

The nurse came in and gave him some morphine through his IV. "This may make you sleepy but it will help you relax and take away the pain." The nurse said.

Maxwell looked at his son anxiously. Roy was his youngest and last child he was his baby. He didn't want anything to happen to him. There was another brother and sister in front of him but Donovan was the oldest. Maxwell was proud of all his children, he and his wife did their best to raise them well.

"Would you like any water son?"

"Yes." He breathed a tired sighed.

He poured him some water from the pitcher that was sitting on the tray. His dad held the cup for him as he sipped the water.

Riza never seen Roy look so weak and exhausted, but he was strong with his job and resting, is what he needed.

"Listen son, Riza and I are going to let you rest and I'll come back tonight. I know Riza will help me."

Roy nodded.

The General and Riza headed out of his room and out of the hospital. Both of them walked back over to Central Headquarters. They went up to Roy's office. Maxwell sat at his desk. "Riza I want to hold a meeting tomorrow with all high ranked officers. We are going to find this Starks and Gerald, I want this search expanded."

"Yes sir,"

"I also want to talk with Lieutenant Major Elric about giving me a statement of what happened to him."

"I will let everyone know sir."

Maxwell was upset he didn't like his son in the hospital suffering from stress. "I want to get to the bottom of this so that my son can have a peace of mind. Now, I have to call his mother."
