I had a bit of writers block and as usual I started working on two other stories and forgot about this one I hate it when I do that! Anyways lets start wrapping this one up shall we?
Alphonse sat bolt upright in bed, his mind groggy and grasping for what was happening. He turned his head to see Sierra lying next to him wide awake. Her eyes were glassy as they stared at him devoid of all emotion.
"Sierra." Alphonse said remembering what he had overheard while they were connected.
"Alphonse I don't want to be that way again. Please I'm begging you Al, kill me." She said flatly.
"Sierra…I can't." He choked out. Sierra slowly opened her arms invitingly. Alphonse settled into her embrace and rested his head against her chest noting her heart beat was nearly none existent.
"If you don't then I will kill Edward and you. I don't want to do that." She explained
"Sierra." He said sadly propping himself on one elbow and wrapped an arm around her waist. He brought his face down to hers feeling her shallow breath on his lips.
"I'm sorry for not finding you sooner sister. I'm sorry for not being able to help you but I'm not sorry for meeting you these last three months have been wonderful." Al said. Sierra offered a weak smile.
"Yes they have." She said. Al smiled back a bit lightly grazing over her lips with his in a brief kiss.
"Edward is weakening. You should hurry." Sierra said. Alphonse nodded glancing over at the unconscious body of his brother. He straddled Sierra sitting on top of her as she brought his hands to her throat. She weakly wrapped his hands around her neck watching him intently. Alphonse distanced himself from the situation as best he good until his normally bright eyes turned a dark shadowy grey mirroring his emotions. He tightened his grip around her throat and pressed down on her with his weight.

Envy knocked Edward down and straddled his hips letting his braid loose and playing with the strands.
"O chibi-chan. I don't care what Sierra thinks of Alphonse you are still so much cuter than he could ever hope to be." Envy teased causing Ed to blush.
"You sick freak!" Ed yelled trying to get out from underneath him. Envy simply laughed. Edward shut his eyes unsure of what to do only opening them when Envy's laugh stopped short. Ed stared at him as Envy rolled off of him and fell to the ground in pain coughing up the red stones. Edward stood up as his surroundings became hazy. He fell to his knees his hands to his head as his vision dimmed and his eyes close of their own accord. He watched with his last bit of consciousness as Envy struggled to his feet and screamed in rage.
"Sierra you treacherous bitch!"
"Ahhhh, my head. I feel so sick." Ed said aloud as he took his surroundings in.
"I'm back on the train." He thought bringing a hand to his head to feel the warm stickiness of his blood.
"Did I hit my head?" He wondered sitting up as everything came back into focus. He stared at the bed for a moment taking in the scene that was displayed before him. Alphonse's body was racked with sobs and apologies as he held Sierra's lifeless body in his arms gently rocking back and forth.
"Al." Ed said compassionately. Alphonse looked up at him startled with his tear stained face.
"I killed her brother. I loved our sister, more than I should have I think and I killed her." He choked out sobbing harder than before. Edward sighed and climbed onto the bed settling behind his little brother and wrapped his arms around him.
"It's alright Alphonse it was the only way to stop her from returning to her true nature." Ed consoled. Al's body tensed as Ed's words reached him.
"No brother you're wrong! That was not her true nature; that was what Envy wanted from her! I don't care what you or anyone else may think she was Sierra not that monster Envy!" Alphonse spat. Edward rested his head against Al's shoulder and sighed deciding not to push the truth onto his younger brother for the sake of his well being.
