48. Side of Face

A/N: Song: "Never Again" by Nickelback.

Takes place during chapter 74. Roy 1st person POV.

I hadn't forgotten—only pushed it to the back of my mind. But now that I had the chance, I had to get some information.

Thankfully, she knew. She knew, and she told me.

So why was I still worried? Why was there still something that didn't seem right?

I got my answer as she rose to leave—the scratch on the side of her face.

My first instinct was to give chase and get the truth, but if our previous conversation was any indication, we were being watched everywhere.

My second instinct was no better—to find Selim and dispose of him. He hadn't needed to go that far, and he knew it, especially if he was a homunculus. He just enjoyed being able to terrorize people.

Once I got my hands on him, he would have that terror revisited on him until it was the last thing he knew. Nobody hurts anyone close to me and gets away with it.

A/N: Riza so should NOT have to take this!
