No spoilers this time... but I still don't own Fullmetal Alchemist.

# 3 – Red

Red eyes were always in his dreams; the red eyes of the Ishvarite women and children, wide and terrified before he snapped his fingers. His own eyes, bloodshot and red-rimmed from staying awake too long from the noises of war, from the booze he'd managed to find. The red, glowing eyes of the younger Elric brother were living proof of a transmutation of the soul.

But when he awoke from the nightmares, he would always be greeted by the warm, loving eyes of Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye, and he would think red was still the most haunting, beautiful colour he'd seen.
