Drabble the Thirty-Sixth! another request! (thank you all! these are a blast!)
Mustang stopped dead in his tracks, staring at the bullet hole marring the wall between him and the girl he was intent on pursuing. Where the hell had that come from?! He glanced about, seeking some sort of movement or the glint of sunlight on equipment that would give away his assailant. Nothing. Whoever it was was indeed skilled.
"Colonel?" They flushed, uncertain Ashley inquired.
"It is nothing. Must be some of my men practicing. There is a firing range very near here." Roy lied smoothly, not wanting to upset her. He took a step forward, intent on comforting her with a soothing pat or three as well as with words.
A second bullet hole joined the first. Then a third. Roy shot a scathing glare at the buildings around him. What was going on?
"Colonel, I really must be going." Ashley curtseyed politely, and walked off at a fair pace, obviously spooked by the silent gunfire.
Mustang investigated the area for a moment more, considered walking after Ashley and her nice legs, was stopped by another skillfully placed bullet before he had gone two steps, and made a tactical decision. Time to go see if Maes wanted to join him for a drink.
From his rooftop position, Havoc smiled smugly, and began to carefully pack up his gear. Time to get home and prepare for his date scheduled for the evening. By the time he was halfway to his apartment he was whistling, cigarette held at an almost jaunty angle in his mouth. Hawkeye was right. Sometimes the direct approach was in fact enjoyable as well as preferable. He wondered if Ashley liked roses. Maybe he would stop for some on his way over to pick her up tonight.
the original request was that i write something in which Havoc actually snipes something. i think this fills that.
Mortari - watch out. drabbles are addictive. i am addicted to Spades 44's drabbles....
Jeva- from what i have seen others write, and have written myself, about Roys spoiling Elysia, i think we had better hope he had boys lest we get another Maes!
