Does it look like I own Fullmetal? I didn't think so.

Last time: Ed understood, that during the night, Matt had died.

This time: Ed lead her away while Al fixed the bowl and walked back with in to the kitchen with it. Ed was on the phone talking to the morgue and Trisha was crying her soul out on the table. Al set the bowl on the table and patted her on the back.

"Al, this is all my fault. If it weren't for me he would have lived and be playing like any other boy outside. I knew his time was coming but I wasn't ready for it, I never thought it would be this soon. I have nothing left in my life to live for." She sobbed but lifted up her head.

"This isn't your fault, you had no control over it and there was no way to cure it. You'll find a way to cope with life, everything will be fine with time." He patted her back again and she nodded.

"Time, time has the power." Trisha whispered as Ed had gotten off the phone and sat down at the table.

"What do you mean time has the power?" He asked.

"Time is of the essence, time everlasting, and time has the power to do all. Time will always go on and it never waits for you. You must continue or be left behind in its wake. It may be hard but time can heal all wounds. My dad told my mom that in one of his letters. As a matter of fact it was in the last one he ever wrote." There was silence and nothing else was heard. They all sat there still with no noise when there was a knock on the door. Ed stood up and answered it and the people from the morgue came in. Ed told them which room and they got Matts' body. When they past by Trisha she tensed up and squeezed her eyes shut. Mr. Pocket came out of his room with his coat on and his hat in his hand.

"I'm sorry Trisha, I left my pay on the dresser and I don't want a penny back. My door is always opened to you. He tipped his head, put his hat on and left. The morgue people drove off as they waited for Trisha to do anything. She looked at her lap and spoke softly.

"So when are you guys leaving for the city?"

"We don't have to leave anytime soon. We can stay for as long as you need us."

"No, I don't want to keep you away from your work."

"It's no big deal, we were way ahead of schedule anyway." Ed said siting back a little. There was a soft smile across her lips that were truly grateful.

"Thank you."

A few days had pass in a daze as the town gathered into the cemetery to pay their respects to Trisha since she or her mother had treated them at on point or another. The sky was dark and it was cold but there was no rain.

Trisha stood in the front as they threw the ashes on his grave and she stared gravely. The people started to leave until the only people that were left were her, Al and Ed. They had their things and after Trisha left they would be on their way. She walked over to the grave and looked inside. As she did she reached into her pocket and pulled out a gold pocket watch that has an alchemy circle and on the inside was a picture of the family that had all left her. She touched the circle on the front and out transmuted a single white rose. She picked it and threw it inside and turned around.

"You see his and my mom's favorite color for a rose was white. This pocket watch was the closest thing he ever got to a state one. My mom had a garden and it was full of white roses, but when she became ill the garden died so he transmuted white roses for her but he could only do one at time. He didn't need materials and he showed me how with this special circle. I carefully put on this pocket watch so whenever I miss him I can transmit a rose. It only works with roses though and when they're transmitted they have the markings on the petals. She transmitted another on and handed it to him.

Thank you, I know you didn't want this to happen but I guess it's the way that life works. Please be careful where ever you go and let your memories help guild you there."

They look at her confused and she just smiled and walked away. As the wind blew they were able to see the back of her black coat and down the middle of her back was a single white rose.

And that's it! If it felt rushed or anything like that oh well, I tried. This is the only episode I plan on writing but if I get another idea and people like the way I write then just maybe….just maybe.
