Chariot: Ch. 6 - Dare You to Move
It was earlier then sunrise when we left. My back ached, I was dead tired, and all I wanted was to go home and sleep until noon, but I knew that if I left him then he would have never been able to leave that room on his own. A light fog was settling in which meant it would be a bright day. All the more reason I had to make him do this.
"We should try the park first." I said to him as we walked along the market area. The shop keepers were just setting up as some children passed us playing a game of tag.
His face was blank as he stared at the ground. I knew he was uncomfortable, but this was the only way.
"Look," I said putting my hand on his shoulder and pointing to an ice-cream vender by the park entrance. He looked at me puzzled apparently not seeing it so I leaned down to his eye level and pointed in his line of sight.
"Its too cold out for that." He said looking at me again. Our faces were so close because I was still leaning down next to him, then his face flushed. "W-we should keep walking." He stuttered as he pushed away walking a few paces ahead.
I caught up with him the two of us walking in silence until he stopped dead in his tracks. He was shaking all over breathing heard in short gasping breaths eyes wide with fear I looked all around only to see some people and the ice cream vender.

I couldn't believe it…I didn't want to…my whole world…it was destroyed because of those two men. There they where…right in front of me. How could that have happened? Why did I see them then? What had I done to them?
And now…the two who had taken my soul away…they where right in front of me…
"Edward? Edward? Edward!" Mustang was shaking me and it wasn't until I herd my name yelled at me that I snapped from my fearful gaze. His eyes where glazed with worry and then…
"Its them. The two who did that to you. Am I right?" His face became slated when I didn't respond because he knew why I hadn't responded. He didn't ask if I was sure. He knew I was and that it had killed a part of me when they…when it happened.
I didn't expect him to get so angry, but…
BANG!
One shot hit the guy on the right in the leg right away then another…
BANG!
And the second one was knocked to the ground from the shot in his leg before he could run after he'd seen who the first shot had come from. (and that the person standing beside him was the person he'd rapped only eight weeks before)
"Come on." Mustang took hold of my shoulder and steered me toward headquarters then pulled out his walky-talky. "This is Mustang. I've found the two rapists who got FullMetal. They're at the park. Yes. You may want to hurry so you can stop the bleeding from their gun shot wounds before they die. I felt it was necessary. Well, then you'll just have to put it down and come take care of them. Right. Right. Okay then, we'll be returning shortly."
He must have seen though my mask as we walked back and a truck from headquarters passed us because he stopped and said, "Are you alright." I knew I could never have fooled him so I answered honestly. Damn Mustang.
"No." My voice cracked when I said it and my eyes watered. Arms…protection embraced me. He was holding me. I hadn't had a body embrace me like that ever. So I cried out letting my arms rap around his waste. Not just because of what the two strangers had done but because of my mother…because of my inability to protect my own brother…because I felt none of his warmth in my right arm or left leg…because…because…

A/N:
New chapter w00t w00t! XD
Well, it took me long enough, eh? So yeah, I've decided…no more empty promises on update dates. I'll just update when I do and that will be that. I will NOT give up on this story because I really do like it very much and also being that I was the first on FanFic to post an Ed rape story I also feel I owe it to my long time readers who have been here since this fics innocent (but not really) little birth to finish it.
I'm shooting for sometime in the late fall to have this done but that's not a promise. I expect it to be about 20 or so chapters maybe more or have a sequel but for now I'll just leave all of you with the evil cliff hanger. ;
P.S.
My eyes started to water when I was writing the whole Mustang embraces Ed part. ;;
I hope that wasn't too fast for him to hug Ed I just felt it fit the moment.
Also - listen to Sarah McGlachlan's - Passion (piano version) while you read that part and it will so make you teary eyed too XD
