Goodbye
Ateenage girl meets up with the Elric brothers, they have changed her life, but when it comes the time to say goodbye, will she be able to take the separate path?
As we stood there in the middle of the desert, I knew this was going to be the end.
I turned and faced the two of them, holding back all emoitions.
"Well...I guess...this is goodbye..."
Ed looked at me and sighed quietly. "Yeah, I guess it is..."
Even tho Al could'nt show emotion, I could see it in his eyes he was concerned, but held it back.
I gulped and bit my lip trying as hard as I could to hold everything back. I then reached out my hand to each of them and we shook. I smiled softly at them.
"Well I guess I should get going. So, goodbye. I hope we meet again someday.." I told them.
Al looked at me "Goodbye"
Ed said nothing but still wore a fake smile.
My eyes began to fill with tears, but I forced myself to hold them back and turned and beguin to walk away.
As we went our seperate ways, I was deep in thought about the descision I was making.
"Do you realy want to do this?"
I questioned myself.
Barely a minute later, still questioning, I stopped and stared at the ground. With my suitcase in one hand I looked at my automail and asked myself one last time.
"Is this realy what you want?"
It was then that I finaly relized.
"No -I said aloud- this isn't what I realy want..."
Still standing there, I turned around and looked back into the distance.
"Do you realy think this was a good dea, Brother?" Al then asked Ed.
Ed did'nt reply for a second,but answered
"It was her decision not ours. Theres nothing we can do about it"
I continued staring off into the distance and I could see two familiar shadows father away.
"This isn't what I want, I want, to stay with them..., stay with them, through everything"
It was finaly clear to me that I had been makin the wrong decision, and that I needed to make the right one while I still had the chance. With the suitcase still at hand, I began to run twoard the two shadows.
As I got closer I relized also, that this was the right decision and that it always will be. Staying with them,through everything is what I was ment to do.
As I was able to see the both of them clearly I yelled out "Edward! Alphonse! Wait up!"
They both turned around and I continued running. When I finaly reached them, I threw my arms around Ed and clinged to him tightly.
Edward finaly noticed I was clinging to him and looked down at me.
"I decided -I let go of Ed- that, I want to stay with both of you."
I then hugged Al and he amazingly hugged back.
I let go and looked at the both of them, then smiled and asked
"So, where to now?"
Al laughed, and Ed smirked.
"TO CENTRAL!"
Who was this misterious girl? Where had she met them? What happened between the three?and Where will this journey of no beguining,middle and a supposed end lead them? No one will ever know.
But then again, maybe those are just questions for fools...
