18. Scar x Fuery – Another One
He knew that he worked in a dangerous place. He knew that not everybody was friends with the military – especially those who suffered fatalities in wars of the past. He knew that the State Alchemists were at the top of the hit list for angry Ishbalans bent on revenge.
He knew that somebody he loved had a possibility of dying.
He just never thought it would happen.
Long after even First Lieutenant Hawkeye left Colonel Mustang's grave, Kain Fuery still stood amidst the starry dusk background, staring down at the headstone, reading the same words over and over: Colonel Roy Mustang. Killed in Action.
Without Fuery even noticing it, someone had sat down right next to the bundle of flowers that Hawkeye had left. He finally noticed when the wind made the person shiver and cough.
Fuery gasped, his shining red-tinted eyes wide behind his glasses. He jumped back. "Wh-who…?"
"I'm sorry." Half-hidden by shadows, the figure stood up, adjusted his own glasses and turned his back to the wind, standing nearly shoulder-to-shoulder with Fuery. "The consequences of my noble actions always seem to result in more hurt than good. Even if it is what Ishbala wants."
Scar.
Somehow, Scar's hand snaked its way through Fuery's jacket sleeves and found his hand, cold and limp like a piece of wet spaghetti. He grasped the smaller man's hand tightly and gave it an assuring squeeze. "I may have ended a life, but that doesn't mean you can't move on and find another one."
Fuery's voice returned long enough for him to whisper through his choked breath: "Another what?"
Scar gave no answer. His hand interlocked with Fuery's spoke enough.
