Ok so this is the second chapter of The Death. I though the first was good, and still left you hanging. Well, I decided to write the second chapter because even I want to know what happens next to ed. Will his father be there, or is his mind playing games on him? Well, just scroll down to read.
The Death
Chapter 2
Ed was staring at the figure what seemed to look like his dad. His eyes widened, staring at the ghostly figure that stood less that a foot away. Ed stepped backwards holding in his screams. He was living part of his dream.
Ed: "No, stay back. You can't take me. Kept the fuck away from me!"
Ed started running for his life, the rain pelting his face. He could barley see anything but he knew he had to get away from whatever it was behind him. The figure kept coming closer and closer no matter how fast Ed ran, it still gained on him. Ed was screaming by this point.
Ed: "Oh god, this thing is going to kill me! Winry! Help me! Oh god, oh god, oh fucking god…"
Ed was already losing his breath as he ran. The screaming wasn't helping him much. The figure finally appeared in front of him. Ed tried to stop but instead of slowing down to stop, he dragged his feet into the ground causing him to fall face first into the mud, sliding up to the ghostly figures feet. He quickly flipped onto his back and crawled back trying to get away from it. He screamed and jumped up running as fast as his shrimpy legs to go.
Ed: "Why is this happening?"
Ed hears voices calling out to him suddenly, he hears a thud followed a severe pain in his left arm. He opens his eyes looking up at the sky. Sparkles of water were flying down hitting his face and the blood arm. Causing stings of pain to surge through his arm and up his spine. The ghostly walked over to his and knelt down. Turns out it was Roy.
Roy: "Fullmetal! Come on Fullmetal, answer me!"
Roy began to panic. He slowly pulled Ed's arm off the sharp object, hearing the rip and tear of the skin and the gushing of the blood seeping from the wound. Roy ripped his shirt and tied it tightly around the wound to stop so much blood from escaping. The rain started to pelt down on them harder as a lighting bolt fell down from the sky striking somewhere off in the distance. Thunder boom loudly shortly after the great flash. Ed moaned still in shock. Roy picked him up and started running towards his house. Dodging roots, puddles and pot holes, he finally made it to the house. He quickly ran in side slamming the door behind him.
Roy: "Winry! Quickly grab the first aid kit! Ed has a severe wound!"
Winry ran downstairs grabbing a blue box, what a red cross on it. She quickly red to ed, pulling off the ripped shirt that was rapped around his arm. She quickly ripped open the blue box, not caring for the loud bang it made as it hit the floor. She pulled out a cotton ball, putting on some sort of liquid. She dabbed the cotton ball to the wound as Roy ran grabbing a cloth, soaking it completely with cold water. He quickly twisted his hands around the cloth, wringing out most of the water. Running back to Ed he set the cloth lightly on his forehead. Ed started sweating. He was breathing hard. Images of blood splatter across the wall, floor, and ceiling. His mother laying in a bed, in pain, yet she looked perfectly fine. Al being torn away into the light of the transmutation while trying to bring back their mother. A piercing sound emitted from the vocals of Ed's throat. Roy tried to calm him down. Winry had finished wrapping up the wound. Ed started talking, though he had no idea he was.
Ed: "No… Help. I'm over here. Mom. Al. Help Me. Mom! Please! Save me!"
Winry looked at Ed with worried eyes. She leaned over hugging him running her hand across his face.
Winry: "It's ok Ed, I'm here. You can stop screaming."
Ed started to shiver. His screams stopped but his breathing still stayed heavy. Winry walked over to the couch clearing a spot to lay him down. Roy picked him up gently laying him down on the couch. Winry quickly pulled a blanket over him. She turned down the lights, and lit candles. A boom of thunder rolled across the hills, shaking the house. Riza walked in, dripping with water. She hung up her coat and walked over to Roy.
Riza: "How is he?"
Roy: " He should be fine now."
Winry: " You two are welcome to stay here if you would like."
Riza: " Thank you Winry, sorry to bother you."
Winry: "Its no problem at all. Please get some sleep. You can use the guest room upstairs."
Roy and Riza both nodded and walked upstairs to the room. They opened the door. Riza walked over to the dresser that only rose halfway up the wall. A flash of lighting lit up the room. Riza lit a candle and brought it over to the nightstand that was next to the bed. She crawled in looking up to the ceiling. Roy sighed and shut the door, and crawled in the bed next to Riza. He hugged her and they started to whisper into the night before blowing out the candle and falling into a deep sleep. Winry was dowstairs on the couch across from Ed starting to drift off, she got up blowing out the candles then curling back up on the couch nodding off.
