I don't own Fullmetal alchemist or the characters.

The Accident chapter 37

At Central headquarters the next day, officers were talking among each about rumors they heard. Some were saying the General was taking over for good and that Roy got fired. Some said it wasn't true, others, didn't know what to believe.

The General walked in the hall with Hawkeye following. Everyone got quiet. Walking up to the podium he spoke in the microphone. "Good morning. I am General Maxwell Mustang, if some of you don't know; I am Fuehrer Roy Mustang father. I came to have a meeting about the incident with Lieutenant Major Elric and the Chimera that was involved. I won't go over details of what happen because I pretty sure everyone here knows. Fuehrer Roy Mustang yesterday early afternoon fell ill and I'll be taking over for a while until he gets better. My focus is to catch the culprits that caused Major Elric problems. My son Donovan Mustang was involved in this and will be punished along with Professor Starks and Captain Gerald. I know that there has been a search for Starks and Gerald but I want this search going deeper. I want surveillance video of any bus stations and train stations and any motels within the last month. I want pictures plastered around town asking for anyone with information about those two. I want this plan to start today. Is everything clear?"

"Yes sir." Everyone said.

Hohenheim and Ed went to see Roy in the hospital.

"Hi Roy, how's it going?" Hohenheim said as he sat down in the chair.

"It must be an epidemic going on? I just got out of the hospital a week ago so being around you must be rubbing off."

"Very funny Fullmetal just so you know, I get to go home today, not like you, who they end up keeping for four more days."

"Hey, I'm pregnant what do you expect!"

"No argument there." Roy said laughing.

"Riza told us what happen. You should take it easy and get some rest and keep your stress to a minimum like I keep drilling in my sons head." He said as he looked at Ed. Ed rolled his eyes. They all talked for a little while and then Ed and his dad left.

Maxwell and Riza came to the hospital to get Roy who was ready to go home. They took him back to his mansion and his dad and Riza made sure he stayed out of his private office and went to bed.

His dad helped him into bed. "Son, I want you to take off for a while and all calls have been forward to your office." "Dad come on, I'm not helpless." "

Your mother is coming down to stay a few days and take care of you."

Roy got upset. "Dad! I'm not ten years old I have servants who do look out for me!" With that Roy triggered a sudden headache. "Ow!" He rubbed the side of his head.

"Son, lie down and take it easy you're going to give me a heart attack. See what stress can cause you? This is why you have to take off for a while."

Roy rubbed the side of his head as he lied down.

"Sir, are you alright? Can I get you anything?"

Roy sighed from the pain. "Yeah…my pain medicine,"

Maxwell was worried about his son. He never saw him like this.

"When is mom going to be here?"

"I'm picking her up tonight at the train station." Maxwell stood by the bed looking at Roy. "I'm going back to the office now, remember, I'll be back tonight. All the servants know what to do so just relax."

"Thanks dad and you to, Hawkeye." He smiled at her.

"Sir." She smiled and winked at him.

He kissed his son on the head and left with Riza.

Riza wanted to hold him and take care of him but sometimes it felt like Roy looked at her like a friend more then anything.

Later that night Roy's mom Rena Mustang came and took care of her son. She had shoulder length raven hair. She's a slender woman and is very sweet, until you piss her off, which wasn't very often. Roy was pampered and treated like he was fifteen. His mom always babied him and sometimes his dad would too.

Roy was annoyed. "Mom I could feed myself. I'm not paralyzed."

She placed his plate on the table and sat on the bed next to her son. She rubbed his arm. "Son," She smiled. "Just shut up. Let me be helpful."

"Mom don't you want to rest you had a six hour ride. You know I can get up too."

She continued to sit on the bed next to him. "Roy, your father told me about what the doctor said. No stressing or you could get an ulcer. I won't, have my son getting an ulcer at an early age." She smiled and cooed at him. "This is why your tummy is hurting a lot." She said rubbing his belly. Roy cracked a sheepish grin at his mom he didn't want to upset her. He just had to let his mom be mom.

The next day Maxwell walked into Donovan's jail cell. His son looked depressed. He closed the door as the guard stood outside. "Son I've been meaning to talk with you." He sat next to Donovan.

"Don't tell me, you came to finish what Roy started."

"No, your brother is at home being taken care of by your mother."

"What's wrong with baby brother, is he alright?" Only time Donovan would say that is when he was worried about his brother.

"Your brother is feeling a little better he just fainted after you left."

"I knew he wasn't feeling well. I even asked him and he told me to shut up."

"Donovan your brother has been under a lot of stress with his job and now with this happening with you it's really hit him hard."

"So it's my fault that he's sick!"

"Donovan you can't deny that you are some of the blame for his sickness. I was told that you haven't cooperated with your brother since he arrested you. The rest of blame falls on him. He's going to be fine if he keeps his stress to a minimum or he can develop an ulcer and migraines if he keeps it up. Son I'm not going to let you out of this jail. What possessed you to do such a thing?"

"Dad…I was only trying to see if men could get pregnant since it was always a myth. I studied it for a while and did a lot of research while in the military science lab. I went from being a doctor to a research assistant. Then Starks joined me and so did Reed. Roy said we had to stop our research and told us we could no longer do this. Starks and I thought otherwise and Reed, well, he bailed. He's a doctor now doing gynecology. I wanted to see the outcome of Ed having the baby."

"Your brother told me he almost lost the baby because of Captain Gerald."

Donovan snorted. "That sneaky bastard almost caused Ed to have a miscarriage! I had to quickly repair the placenta before Ed hemorrhaged."

"Son, I want you to be examined by a psychiatric doctor."

"Dad, come on, I haven't lost my mind that… much."

Maxwell looked at him like if he was kidding.

"I got so deep into this; I… didn't want to stop."

"Experimenting on a young boy to see if he could get pregnant is not logic thinking. We will talk later." Maxwell got up and the guard opened the door.

Ed walked into Roy's house. He whispered to himself as he followed the butler. "I see Roy is living well with servants."

He walked into Roy's room. Roy was sitting up with five pillows behind his back. He was reading. He looked up. "Hey fullmetal, nice to see you,"

His mom came from the bathroom. "Hello." Roy's mom looked at Ed as she extended her hand as she smiled. His mom pulled over a chair and Ed sat down in it. "Your name is Fullmetal? Wow that's a weird name."

"Mom this is Ed it's just a name that was given to him by Fuehrer Bradley long time ago, he's an alchemist."

"An alchemist? So young and handsome to be an alchemist,"

Ed blushed.

"Mom, he's the one that is…"

She squealed with excitement. "You're the one my husband told me about that's pregnant! I get so excited about babies! Oh…how many months are you gone? Are you showing? Let me see!"

Ed was bombarded with questions he didn't know what to say. "Uh…miss…eh…I'll show you." He moved his red coat back.

She touched his belly. "You must be in your early months. But the heartbeat is very strong."

"I'm almost four months."

"I hope I get a chance to see what you're having."

Ed looked sad as she moved her hand.

"Hey, what's wrong? I hope I didn't upset you."

"No it's just…the General said he's going to take my baby away. He said he would think about it first but I'm pretty sure of what his decision is."

"Ed, you don't know that. My dad can change his mind."

"I don't usually get involved in my husbands work but I may say something about this one. I'm going to go to my room for a while why you two catch up on things." She got up and left.

Roy sighed heavy. "Thank goodness."

"What's wrong with you? Is she that bad?"

"No, my mom is great. She likes to baby me and I hate that."

Ed laughed. "You should enjoy all the pampering you can get. I miss my mom doing that for me. That's one of the things I really loved about her."

"I forgot your still seventeen. That's a big difference from being twenty six." Roy grabbed Ed's wrist. "I almost forgot. You owe me!"

"What are you talking about?!" Ed said as he pulled away from Roy.

Roy grabbed his wrist again. "Remember what my brother said about me being your boyfriend! What the hell is up with that!?"

Ed was red in the face. "Uh…that wasn't nothing."

Ed change subject. "So what the hell is up with that kiss…?"

Roy quickly kissed him as he cut off his words.

Ed pulled away. "You pervert! Eww…yuck!" Ed wiped his lips as he moved away from him.

Roy gave him a devious look. "So I'm your boyfriend, right!"

Roy smirked. "Well boyfriend, payback's a bitch!"

"Okay Mustang whatever medication you're on it's got you going crazy. Look I have to go I start work tomorrow and I'm going to be real busy." Ed quickly headed to the door.

"Bye shrimp!" Roy yelled as Ed closed the door. That made Ed mad. If Roy wasn't sick he would punch his lights out for saying that.

A week passed by and Roy went back to work. His dad extended his stay so they could have the trial. Rena Mustang went back home after taking care of her son for a week. Roy loved his mom but he didn't want to be treated like a baby. Roy took it easy and didn't allow stress to become his life everyday. Hohenheim and Roy told Ed about investing money into Donovan's work and that they were lied to. Ed didn't worry about it but was relieved that His dad and Roy weren't in on it with Donovan. Ed trusted them but Donovan told him so many lie's that he almost believe him.

The next day Ed was at work outside training several new alchemists. He was doing different demonstrations of his alchemy. A lot of the new alchemists were really amazed at his work. After a few hours of demonstrations Ed came back to his office tired. He walked towards the desk when a knock came to the door. "Come in."

Riza walked in. "Hey pregnant man, how's the demonstrations coming."

"Its fine I'm just tired."

"You look tired…"

Ed leaned up against his desk as he grabbed his stomach.. "Oww!"

"Ed what's going on!?" Riza said worried as she quickly approached him.

"I-I d-don't know…ow!"

Riza put her arm around his shoulders. "Just breathe."

Ed was scared. "Riza could… you take me…to the hospital… something's wrong! Ow!"

She helped him out of the office and into her car and straight to the hospital. Riza thought he was in labor but it was way too early for that. She had to keep an eye on the road and watch Ed double over in a lot of pain. She was worried and scared for him. She got to the hospital and took him straight to Dr. Reed's office. Lydia saw them and had them go to emergency downstairs. The doctors took him back immediately. Riza was worried sick. She became gentle to Ed since he's been pregnant. She called Hohenheim and Roy. They quickly came down to the hospital.

"Riza!" Yelled Roy and Hohenheim, as they quickly came into the waiting room.

Riza was in tears as she cried into Roy's chest. Roy was very sensitive to her as he looked at her. "Listen it's going to be okay I'm pretty sure it's nothing too bad."

"I'll try and find out something from one of the nurses." Said Hohenheim.

Riza wiped her eyes and told him what happened as they sat down.
