I remember that night clearly, the night we got the news. It was a cold rainy night, it was late. We were about to head up for bed when it happened….
Knock. Knock. Knock.
The Elric Brothers looked up from what they were doing. Alphonse got up from the dinning room table and headed for the door. Al opened the door slowly just making enough of a gap to see the person.
"Alphonse Elric?" asked a woman whose face was obstructed the hood of her navy blue rain jacket. A bit of blonde hair was plastered to the part of the face that was visible.
"Who's asking?" asked Edward who had gotten up from his place on the couch to make sure it wasn't an enemy at the door.
"Riza Hawkeye" said Riza as she took off her hood.
"Come inside Riza" said Al opening the door wide enough for her to enter. She put her rain coat on the coat hanger "please make your self comfortable, do you want some tea?" he asked as he headed to the dinner table.
"Oh no thank you." Said Riza weakly. She sat down on the couch and wrapped her arms around her self insecurely.
Edward looked at her trying to figure out what could make a cool collected woman like Riza Hawkeye act so strange. Unable to come to a solution he walked to his facorite window and sat on its sill, looking out the window.
Al sat in an armchair across from Riza's chair. "so..what brings you here to the outskirts of Xenotime? "asked Alphonse trying to be a good host and breaking the tension in the air.
"Well I came to find you and your brother, I have some news for you both." She said even weaker.
"What is it?"
"we lost one of our own" said looking at the floor trembling slightly. " Their funeral will be soon and we thought that you would like to attend"
"Who died?" asked Ed who was now interested in the conversation. "Well who!" he said almost yelling.
Riza started crying silently gripping the sides of her military jacket.
"Edward stop yelling, shouting isn't going to solve anything" said Alphonse.
Ed stood up and stormed over to her. "Who was it!"
Riza merely looked at him and tried to speak but the words got caught in her throat.
"Riza who!"
" Brother stop" said Al who rushed to his brothers side in an attempt to calm him or at least stop him from yelling.
"….Mustang….Roy Mustang" she finally said slowly and weakly.
Ed's face went deathly pale. He stumbled backwards bumping into Al.
"…Roy?...he can't be dead" Ed said disbelievingly
" Brother are you ok?" Alphonse asked worriedly
" How did he die?" asked Ed with anger and pain hinted in his voice.
" King Bradley…Pride killed him." She whispered
