Chapter 4-
His eyes opened a slit and looked around the blurry room. It seemed as though they had weight attached to them. Every muscle in his body screamed with pain, especially his back. 'What happened last night?' Ed thought to him self making a week attempt to roll over onto his stomach.
Every part of his body protested, and finally giving up Ed decided to lay there and try to figure out what had happened and where he was. Ed looked around the clean room, very surprised that he didn't see the dingy mess that he normally saw when he woke up in his dorm. Swiveling his head around, he took in his surroundings. This was not his dorm room at all!
Sitting on the desk beside the couch he was laying on, was a picture of Roy mustang and Meas Hughes. 'Could this be Roy's House?' A blush crept onto Ed's face at the thought but now was not the time to be daydreaming about his secret crush on Roy. Ed's eyes swept the spacious den. Confusion swept over Ed and only brought up more questions when his eyes rested on the full grown man sleeping on the floor, hugging a pillow close to his chest and murmuring in his sleep.
"Don't shoot Hawkeye! I swear it wasn't me, Havoc did it!" He put his hands in front of him as if shielding himself from an imaginary bullet before grunting and turning over taking the pillow with him.
Ed just stared at the black haired man not sure weather to laugh hysterically at him, or wake him up and ask him why the heck he was in his house. Ed decided to choose the latter of the two decisions and tried to wake the older man up.
Opening his mouth Ed started to mouth out the word Roy but his vocal cords were deciding not to cooperate. His thought felt like a razor has run up and down it making the flesh cut up and raw. Instead of saying what he had intended to, Ed broke out into a fit of coughing, gagging on his almost uttered words.
Roy stirred in his sleep. At least Ed was waking him up somehow, but not fast enough. Ed began to see black dots appear in front of his eyes. Dancing in front of him, obscuring his vision. Luckily enough Roy was not a very deep sleeper, and his eyes slit open slowly trying to recognize the strange noise and what was making it. Roy groaned and turned toward where the noise was coming from.
Looking up at the couch he saw Ed, desperately trying to catch his breath in between coughs. Suddenly Roy remembered everything. "Edward!" Roy sprung from his position on the floor appearing next to Ed in a flash. "Full metal, are you ok?" What a stupid question to ask. Ed was choking, of coarse he wasn't ok! Lightly patting Ed's back, careful not to hit the wounds around his wings Roy thought of how he could help.
Roy dashed to the kitchen grabbing a glass and filling it up with water, before sprinting back to Ed, who was just about to pass out from lack of oxygen. Roy turned Ed over carefully and tipped his head back letting the water slowly trickle into the blonde's mouth.
The water felt so cool on Ed's sore throat, making it slowly easier to breathe. As soon as Roy decided Ed's breathing had steadied itself enough, he took the glass away from Ed's lips and set it on the desk next to the couch.
"You ok shorty?" Roy asked trying to keep the smirk from spreading across his face as Ed glared daggers at him.
Roy let a smile play on his lips. He knew it wasn't the time to be making short jokes but he had to admit it was amusing. And it was also a good sign that Ed had enough energy to get angry at him for making another short comment.
Roy looked at Ed who was still steaming form his seat. If Ed had not been injured, Roy would be dead. Something looked different about Ed, and Roy couldn't put his fingers on it. Finally Roy noticed that instead of the normal black oval pupils that rested in the middle of Ed's golden orbs, were thin slits.
Roy also noticed that Ed's normally pure golden eyes had a greenish tint to them when they hit the light in just the right way. Also when Ed opened his mouth Roy could see the fangs Ed now had. He looked somewhat like a vampire but not even that could detract from Ed's good looks.
Now that the tense moment was over Roy looked down at his hand that was still rested on the boy's shoulder. Roy quickly pulled it away and turned around, Hiding his face that was flushed with color. He didn't know what had come over him. The sudden emotion of embarrassment had replaced worry in an instant. Roy just began to notice how close he had been to Ed over the past twenty four hours.
Once Roy was sure the unnatural color had drained out of his face he turned back to Ed who was looking at him quizzically, one eyebrow raised and head just slightly cocked to the side. He looked so cute! Resisting the urge to squeal like a young school girl, Roy brought his composure back. Putting on the same serious expression he normally hid under, every day when he had to face the short teen.
"What am I doing here?" Ed managed to croak out with much effort, while pushing himself into a sitting position. 'Since when did talking become so hard? And why was he in so much pain anyway?' Looking back at Roy he noticed the sad expression on his face. Curiosity was overwhelming him. 'What happened last night?' Ed couldn't figure it out. It was as though a part of his memory had been lost.
Ed looked down at his hands expecting to see nothing out of the norm. But instead of seeing his short rounded nails, he saw the think jagged claws growing from not only his flesh hand, but metal claws stuck out of the end of each prosthetic finger.
"Holly crap," was all Ed could say as he examined the claws extending from his hands. His memory began to return. Walking to the graveyard, getting captured by that maniac. He looked down at his feet noticing that the same thing had happened; only his nails were not the only thing that transformed. His foot was replaced with something that looked like it belonged to a bird or bat.
Roy also started to noticed the strange effect of the transmutation on Ed's auto-mail limbs. Whoever had preformed the transmutation had been extremely thorough. Not only had he fused Ed's flesh with the animal, but also his metal limbs too.
Ed could barely handle looking at his mutated feet and hands but he was not ready for what he found on next. Something on his back twitched. Ed swiveled his head around to look over his shoulder. The sight of two five foot wings protruding from his back was enough. Ed fainted and fell back onto the cushy couch.
A/N: Sorry if this chapter is really short I just wanted to post it before it got really late again. I'm also sorry to the person who I told they would be my beta but I just really wanted to get this posted ASAP! Reviews are greatly appreciated!
