Ow

Man that hurts.

I wonder how long I'd been laying here passed out…hopefully not too long. Havoc seems OK, but he'll have a scar, whining child...

Well, now it's time for the hard part, getting up.

Wow…I almost passed out yet again, but I have to stay focused. There are still people who need me, probably. I wonder which way Hawkeye and Alphonse went?

Ahhh. That hurts, I need a distraction.

Thanks to this near and still possible death experience, my more youthful days in the military come rushing back. Though it really hasn't been that long, I've changed a lot. I was brash then, or at least more so. Joining the military to help change lives, and make the world a better place.

What a load of bull. I know that now, but back then it was the way we thought. All the lies and secrets the military keeps are proof enough of the corruption.

I still wonder, was it Ross that did it? Well, I suppose that's Breda's job, but I doubt she even knows anything about it. Though, the idea that it was someone inside or connected to the military isn't too far-fetched.

Hughes….

You idiot.

You died because you were sticking your neck out to help people, me specifically. Not that I haven't done stupid things like that myself, as Hawkeye so kindly reminded me.

At least she can take care of herself, though that thing with Gluttony certainly gave me a scare. Oh well, I'm sure she's, I mean they are fine.

Damn.

This bleeding just won't stop. But I have no idea if I'm any closer…

Wait.

That sounds like Riza…what's she saying?

…damn legs move faster!

Wait…all I see is Alphonse…

"No matter what, I won't! My powerlessness is the fault for the deaths of too many innocent people! I will not tolerate seeing people I should be protecting die in front of my eyes!"

Wow.

"Well said, Alphonse Elric."

I mean it too.

Crack

Good, he put up a wall, now I can…

"The first thing you should do to gain control in battle is to immobilize your enemy..."

Never attack in anger…

"Surprise attacks are also effective, Homunculus."

Stupid Fullmetal….

snap

"How? You should be bleeding to death!"

Hmf

"I burnt my wounds to stop bleeding. It almost made me pass out a few times…"

Witch.

snap

"This is what you said; 'there is still a long way before I die.'"

Unlike Gluttony…

"In that case, I will continuously kill you until you die."

snap

Finally…

"You win. I hate to admit it, but it isn't too bad to get killed by a man like you. I like those determined eyes of yours. I can't wait. The day…your eyes will be filled with torment…is right..there.."

Wait…what does that…

Riza…

"Oh, 1st Lieutenant, you were safe."

I don't want to know what could have happened.

"Alphonse…I want to thank you for protecting my officer…"

Officer…

"Yes…get a doctor for Havoc."

Wait, is that the…
