(That which is lost)

(Travis Briggs wakes up in the hospital and looks up at the sky for a few moments)

Am… am I …dead?

Doctor: "No… But you came close to it."

Travis: "Oh god, a doctor… I'm in hell,

Dr: "Your not dead."

Travis: I had to be a soldier, noooooooo being an engineer and an alchemist wasn't enough, I had to fight for my country/ (Sarcastically)

Dr: "are you listening to me?"

Travis: why,… I tried to recompense after the war I helped people,…I've payed my dues, isn't that enough?

Dr. "will you shut the fuck up!

Travis: WHAT!

Dr.: "your alive"

Travis: "I am, …but I can't fell my arms …or my legs"

Dr.: "Well that's harder to explain, you see… they're…just gone, no cuts, no scars, no burns, nothing…and even stranger they've been replaced by automail..."

Travis: NO! It couldn't be…

Dr.: "…further more your not just wearing it, your flesh is fused to it.

Travis: "Where's Maria!"

Dr.: "and all that's left of your organs is your heart, half a lung, and 10 of your stomach, you know lucky you are to be alive?"

Travis: "Where's Maria!"

Dr.: " what?"

Travis:" WHERE THE HELL IS MARIA!

Dr.: "Who's Maria?"

Travis: "my wife, were is she, she was in the car with me… were is she?

Dr.: "you were the only one they brought in here"

Travis: "No, she…she…Why did…"

Unbreakable Alchemist: "for the same reason you did what you did for her, because she loves you, and was willing to die for you."

Dr.: "Mr. Brown will be driving you home"

Travis: "Everything I lived for is gone …there's nothing left… your wrong Doc… Travis Macoey Briggs IS dead…all that remains is, the Heavy Metal Alchemist………..
