My Dreams Will Save You
Chapter One
Winry rose from her covers and walked to the window. It wasn't even dawn yet; the wall clock told her that it was about two. She couldn't remember why she had woken, there had been some reason. Her thoughts flashed to a clip of her nightmare; the reason for her awakening.
Winry's Dream
A young blond ran through an alley with fear on his face. She could hear his heart beating loudly in his chest.
"Al?" He stopped and looked around, hoping to find something, or someone. Characters walked up behind him, unseen. A tall woman smiled maniacally and drove her nail through his left shoulder. He cringed in pain. He grew pale and swayed on his feet.
"It seems your body doesn't work well with the poison that was on my nail." The woman smirked at his astonishment and pain.
"P-poison…?" He stumbled backwards and fell. He pushed himself against the closest wall. He was finding it hard to breath, move, and stay awake at the same time. "W- where's Al?" His face drew some courage out.
"Ah, Sloth has him."
"Sloth! She's probably abusing him."
"Yeah, we told her to play some mind games."
"DON'T! Leave him alone, he's my little brother! I'm your enemy! He's done nothing wrong!"
"But you have."
"What!"
"You know what you've done; you're just as bad as us now. You've killed."
The boy's face hung low now; he knew what he'd done. He never was punished for those acts. "B-but wait! Why are you punishing him for my acts!" He stood defiantly, though; it was obvious that it pained him to do so.
"Because, silly boy, punishing him is punishing you." She smiled a wicked smile.
"TAKE ME! Release him, send him back to Resembool! Send him to Winry and Aunt Pinako! Take me instead!"
"As you wish." She smiled and sent a nail through his stomach. Envy and Gluttony walked in behind Lust carrying Al. He was bound and chunks of his armor were missing.
"Brother! What did you say to them! What are you going to do!" Al seemed to know what Ed had done.
Ed donned a smirk on his face. "Tell them I'm fine. Tell them I'm away with work or something." His smirk left as he pained to remain standing.
"Brother…?"
"Your brother has given himself up in exchange for your freedom." Lust looked back at Al with a bored expression on her face. She didn't like that he had given in so easily.
"Al Go! I-I can't lose you again." A fresh smirk rose on his pale, blood smeared face. "Tell Winry I love her."
End Dream
She looked out at the dark sky. Lightening flew over and cracked the ground where the Elric's house used to be. It illuminated the tears falling from her cyan eyes. She knew Ed and Al did was dangerous, but she never wanted to admit that what they did might someday kill them, especially Ed, she loved him and it would kill either brother if the other died.
The next lightening bolt illuminated something else. A figure walking up her driveway. "Who would be coming here at two in the morning?" Her thoughts flew to her dream. She grabbed her coat and flew down the stairs in a panic. She opened the door and ran to the figure.
