Hiding From Homunculi
When he arrived the military men guarding the vaults had asked for his reason for being there. He had simply stated his name, shown them his watch, and said he had come to see the blonde captive captured earlier. They had let him through, warning him about the affor mention's rowdy behavior. He could hear Ed clear as day as he opened the door to the cells. "Let me put out of here you BASTARDS! I'm telling ya' I want out NOW!" Roy could hear Ed's yelling before he even entered the cell room that held the prisoners. He questioned if it was really Ed and not just Envy that they had caught, then dismissed that thought when he realized that nobody, not even Envy, could copy Ed's personality. 'This attitude is definitely all Ed. Nobody could match his odd behavior. Or his cute looks. Wait, I did NOT just think that!' Roy's mind buzzed as he strolled down the hall of the room in the direction of the weird obscenities being tossed around the corner from both Ed and the guard he supposed, who was watching Ed's cell. "Would you shut up already kid! We don't even know if you're really that blonde haired kid anyway, so shut up!" "What! That is the biggest load of SHIT I have ever heard! Of course I'm that blonde haired kid! I can't be any one else unless my hair gets dyed again!" Roy vaguely remembered a time when Fury had been walking down the hall with a bucket of black paint after helping Al paint their teachers symbol on their living room wall in their new house they'd bought, located near HQ.
Ed had been listening to his MP3 player and hadn't noticed Fury until he rounded the corner and slammed right into him, causing the can of paint to topple on Ed's head. Luckily his MP3 hadn't suffered any damage, but his hair had. It had turned completely black and wouldn't come out when he tried to wash his hair. He snickered as he remembered everyone taking pictures of the famous Edward Elric the Full Metal Alchemist with blonde hair gone black for 3 months straight. It was an amusing show watching Edward trying to control his temper and not hurt anyone. Key word. Tried. Seven people had ended up with broken arms, three people had ended up in critical condition for four weeks, eight people had either had their back broke or one or both legs broke, and etc. He snickered quietly to himself as he rounded another corner just in time to see a familiar boot fly and hit the guard in the back of the head with such force that his head was knocked forward into the opposite wall in front of him.
"HA! That's what you get you bloated overgrown ass!" Roy turned toward the voice of triumph and his eyes met gold. Ed's eyes widened slightly at the appearance of the Lieutenant Colonel, but attempted not to show his surprise. Roy gaze traveled over the youth as he squirmed in the chains attached to his arms and legs. His arms were shackled to the wall behind him, his arms above his head to the sides so they couldn't clap. His legs were chained apart from each other and chained closer to the wall than his arms so he couldn't attempt to kick anyone. Roy surveyed the damage dealt upon the teen. A bruise was forming on his left cheek along multiple scrapes and cuts that lined his face, probably from being smashed into the concrete, and a slash from above his right eye, across his nose at a diagonal, all the way to the left side of his face that was bleeding steadily. (think Squall people) Blood dripped from the edges of his mouth and his hair, now out of its usual braid, was sprawled partly across his chest and partly behind his back, his bangs framing his face. Roy gulped and continued to examine Ed state. Ripped pants were noticed and appeared to be wanting to fall off at the lack of material holding them on and a tank top that had definitely seen better days. Days that didn't involve it being torn to shreds and its stitching not coming undone. Roy sighed and opened the door with the key he had swiped when he had entered the cell room. "Find yourself in a tight spot huh Full Metal?" Roy smirked as Ed growled at him, glaring at him like he had called him short. "How do you know I'm really Ed? I could be Envy!"
Roy scoffed and frowned at the chained boy as he tried to shimmy away from the metal holding to the cold wall. His frown deepened when he noticed the boy's wrists were starting to bleed. Roy started to speak. "I know you're Ed by the way you were yelling a minute ago, the fact that you're not shape-shifting into someone else to get yourself out of this mess, and the fact that you brought up that pleasant memory about the hair dye." Ed smirked slightly then winced in pain and Roy suddenly noticed a gash on the youth's side that must have been covered by the remains of his shirt and was now bleeding freely, being reopened when he had shifted his position. Roy ran to the Ed's side when he went limp and lifted him slightly as he sagged so his wrists wouldn't get cut anymore than they already were. "What now Taisa?" Ed asked blearily, unable to get a good focus, his vision blurring from blood loss. "Well, we need to get you out of here and find you somewhere that you can hide from Envy," Roy paused remembering an add that had made its way to his desk one time recently about 'Help needed' for a Renesaunce Festival. 'What was it called again? Oh yeah! Scarborough Fair!' Roy grinned and then frowned when he heard the heavy, shallow breathing of the person he was supporting. "Think quick Taisa because.. I.. can't…," and then Ed went completely limp and passed out, his breathing coming in weak gasps. Roy panicked. 'Oh NO! What do I do! Think Taisa THINK!' Suddenly, and idea came to mind. His earlier smirk returned and he gently lifted Ed up, supporting him so he wouldn't dangle, then unlocked the chains holding Ed to the brick wall with another key dangling from the ring of keys he held. "Don't worry Ed," he whispered into the unconscious boys ears, "I have a plan!"
