Promises and Guns and Flowers, Oh My
Chapter Eight
"Ha, ha! I'm not out yet."
Mustang laughed and tossed his wet glove to the side. He then pulled out his left glove and put it on. He snapped his fingers and sent flames crashing by. They completely missed Garth.
"You miss loser!"
"No I didn't."
Just then, a loud explosion was heard. This explosion sent Garth flying, the box flying from his hand. It slid across the floor and landed at Mustang's foot. He bent down and picked it up. Garth stared in horror and fear. Mustang walked closer, putting the box in his pocket carefully. He snapped again, and again, and again, and again. Sending more and more flames at Garth. Mustang no longer feared Garth, for he now held the box and Garth was no longer a threat to Hawkeye.
"You can't beat the flame alchemist."
More flames appeared, surrounding Garth. Then, Mustang stopped. He remembered something very similar to this.
FLASHBACK
Ishball. Mustang was standing in a small house posed and ready to snap. In front of him was a small man holding a gun. Mustang hesitated and the man shot at him. The, Mustang snapped his fingers, exploding the gun and unused gunpowder. The man died instantly as Mustang walked from the burning building. Then, he saw it. A child on the second floor screaming and crying for help. Before long, the flames covered the house, killing all that was inside.
END FLASHBACK
Mustang stared, sweat forming on his brow. He took a step back. Garth noticed this and attempted another attack. This time it was aimed at Hawkeye. A large wave or water and dirty flew into the air, knocking the hook off her chains and she started a long fall down, screams erupting from her. Mustang saw this and with one large snap, sent Garth flying into boxes of gunpowder, exploding him and the boxes. Dead.
"Hawkeye!"
Mustang ran forward trying to catch her. He forgot all about the circle on the floor. He reached his arms out, grabbed her just as she fell. His left foot took one more step to remained balanced. That once last step, landed on the circle. Mustang felt something in his foot and quickly tossed Hawkeye to the side. A large bright flash of light appeared and engulfed Mustang.
