Pairing: Roy Mustang + Edward Elric
Disclaimer: I don't own FullMetal Alchemist or any of the names.
" Too Bad," Thought Roy, "The one who could blast apart these rocks with ease is out cold." Roy couldn't wait for Ed to awaken either, who knew how long that could take, they could run out of oxygen before that. He had to think fast. Most of his upper body was cover in heavy debris, but his legs, he could just move them an inch. If he could use his strength to free his legs more, then he would have a better grip and more strength to free the rest of his body and Ed's. Now it was just to put that plan to work, which was, as the old saying goes, is easier said than done.
Roy Exerted all his energy into releasing his legs from the tight crushing binds of the rocks. It took his several attempts. Roy was about to give up when he heard a small sigh come from Ed's body, was he awakening? This prospect gave Roy more drive to get them out of there. He pushed and shoved until finally he had both legs free. He sat on his knees and tried to catch his breath, He badly wanted to take a deep breath in, but then he would be inhaling even more toxic dust particles. Roy counted to three and pushed up.
They were out; Roy pushed the rocks off of the two bodies. All except for the one crushing Ed's automail arm. Roy picked up the rock and threw it aside. Even though he knew it had no feeling, he still gingerly picked up the arm and placed it on Ed's chest. With utmost care he picked up Ed's body and carried him from the wreck that had once been a building.
Emergency crews and Military personal were rushing around the scene. Al was sitting on the ground Hawkeye had her hand on his back. Replacing her normally stoic, stone cold professional face was a more sombre look; it was as if she was near tears. Roy walked up to Hawkeye as her head began to sink.
"Well, I hope you not crying over me?" He said in his most arrogant voice.
Risa looked at him, his face was covered in dirt and scratches were everywhere, but he still had a smile on his face, a smile that wouldn't fade. Everyone now fully noticed who he was and whom he was carrying. An ambulance team came over to take Ed away, but Roy refused. He just started doing what he did best, ordering people around! "Pull half the troops back, you don't need that many, Did Al Give a description, Have a team search the area, are there any civilians hurt?" These questions just came natural to him. Any other person who has went through what he has would have certainly broken down under the pressure. "But I am a leader," Roy thought, "I have to be strong, for Ed's sake."
People around him hustled to a fro to complete the tasks they had been assigned. Roys personal car came around and he carefully placed Ed's body in the back, he told Al not to worry about his brother.
"He's with me." Roy said.
"That's what I'm worried about." Whispered Al to Risa
"Hawkeye, get Winry Rockbell down here A.S.A.P."
And with that he rolled up the window and drove away from the wreck where if it wasn't for their sheer dumb luck they would have surly been dead.
Chapter 2 all! Short and sweet so #3 will be right after, I was thinking of combining them but well whatever! Till next time!
