Sakura: Why did you break my heart like you did?

Envy: I didn't mean to...

Sakura: Just do the disclaimer and go tell someone who cares

Envy: Fullmetal Alchemist and all related characters, locations, and objects are not owned by either of the fan fiction authors.

Sakura: I'm out of here...Sakura gets up and leaves

Envy: Looks like I'm in the doghouse tonight...enjoy folks goes after Sakura

Envy watched as Sakura's eyes fluttered close and he soon left her home as he went out into the storm that had mysteriously rolled back into Central. "I'm sorry, but I've always been taught never to fraternize with the enemy, especially someone of your standing," Envy said as he climbed out the window into the rolling storm.

Sakura's dreams we're troubled and uneasy. She awoke to the sound of thunder shaking the apartment. She curled up into a tiny ball and wished with all her heart and her brother and Envy would come and save her.

Edward and Alphonse woke up the next morning to see Sakura curled up as small as she possibly could on the floor.

"What hit me?" Ed said as he sat up and felt the lump forming on the back of his head.

"I don't know brother, but...MS. SAKURA!" Al screamed as he ran towards Sakura as she lay in a ball on the floor, shivering and shaking as if someone had placed a wet blanket on her. Ed noticed the open window and he moved towards the window, then closed it, unaware of the sign of Envy that he had left behind. A piece of his uniform had been torn off during his escape out the window.

Sakura's eyes fluttered open, sweat still rolling down her pale form and she took in the brothers. Her eyes were tragic and sad, and her lips move to softly as if trying to say something.

"Brother, she's trying to speak!" Al shouted as he scooped Sakura up into his arms.

"Edward...I'm..sor--" Sakura tried to say but Ed put a finger to her lips.

"Sleep for now...you need your rest," Ed said as he took Sakura into his arms and placed her onto the bed, placed blankets on her and left the apartment to find the local pharmacy for the Military Officers.

As Edward left, Sakura turned her attention to Al. " I'm …. I'm ….. so …. sorry . I had to do that, Al. I just ….. I want to see …..Daisuke…. one last time." Her eyes blinked we unshed tears. " I guess I won't get that, after all. The last time I was this ill, I nearly died. I won't be that lucky this time."

Al was shocked as he saw Sakura willing to give up on life, "NO, you can't think like that! You need to get better! Colonel Mustang would be crushed if you died...we've dealt with enough death in our journey for the Philosopher's Stone," Al said as he remembered the lives they had seen hurt and helped by the brothers. They had seen the unspeakable acts of Chimera creation against Nina Tucker and Alexander, the Tucker's dog, and many other things, they swore never to speak of, their mother's death. Seeing Sakura lying on her bed, looking like she did, brought back memories of watching their mother slip away from them in her final days.

"Al, Roy doesn't needs me, he has Maes. And Riza. And many other people who backed him up when I couldn't. Al, I'm going to tell you secret. You have to promise me that you would tell anyone else. Can you make that promise, Al?"

Alphonse didn't know whether he could hold her secret, but has he saw the fading light in her eyes, he knew that he had to hold onto her secret as he leaned in towards her to listen to this secret that she had been hiding from the boys and was willing to admit in what she felt was her final hour.

Sakura's eyes closed and opened once more. " Al when I was a little girl, my older brother was killed. Our mother tried to bring him back using human transmutation. It failed and in my brothers place was something that wasn't human, it was a homunculus, the one you all call Greed. It wasn't my choice to abandon him. I was sick then as I am now, and couldn't move to stop him from leaving. When I woke up I was in the hospital and the doctors told me that my mother and my brother's body had disappeared and that no one knew where they were. I knew what had happened and made a decision to become the top researcher in the military. I figured that if I can find my brother, then I can somehow change him back and life could go back to the way it used to be. Along the way I found out how to create a philosopher stone without using a human sacrifice. I also found text on alchemy which would greatly increase any alchemists abilities. All of this research is in my books. My journals at the library in central. Al please use the information I have given you to help you and your brother get back your bodies." The young girl close her eyes again, and Al thought that she had died and began panicking.

Al paced the floor as he watched Sakura slowly breathing as she tried to fight the fever that was burning her up, but for Al he couldn't tell how hot or cold she was and if her fever had gone down due to his armor. Sakura was starting to become delusional about her surroundings as the room seemed to be spinning around her and her breathing was becoming labored as each breath was hard to take as her fever was rising to a fatal level.

"Brother, where are you?" Al asked himself as he looked to Sakura and then to the rainy window.

Edward Elric had been wondering the streets of Central looking for the Pharmacy, but when he did he found it to be closed and when he saw the "Closed" sign on the window, he's anger and frustration raised to an all time high.

"DAMN IT! Why can't I help those close to me!" Ed shouted as he pounded his automail hand onto the door.

"HEY! Don't break my door because you're mad young man!" came a female voice from the window upstairs.

"Ma'am do you own this store?" Ed asked as he tried to look up to the window through the rain.

"Yes, but I only cater to the State Military and State Alchemists, if you're neither of those, then you have to go to the local Pharmacy for other folks," the lady replied.

Ed took off his silver pocket watch of dogs of the Military and showed it up high for the woman to see and once she got a glimpse of the watch she shut her window and Ed could soon hear the sounds of her footsteps as she ran down the stairs and moved to the window and turned the "Closed" sign to "Open".

"Come in, come in, I'm sorry, it's just that I had to close because of the rain and earlier I had an officer in here looking for medicine...for a friend, but he didn't have any money and he had a weird glare about him. He nearly attacked me when I refused to give him the medicine for his friend," the Pharmacy lady said as she stumbled behind the counter.

Ed pondered what she had told him and as he started to piece together what had happened between the Pharmacist and the mystery officer...the only person that could have possibly tried to attack the Pharmacist would have been ENVY!

At that moment the bell above the door rang signaling the entrance of another. Ed and looked up and saw Roy and Riza entering the shop, the former having run out of pain medication. Before Ed could get out of Roy's sight, the Colonel spotted him and grinned.

"Why, Shrimp, I didn't even know you were there!" To Roy's surprise, Ed ignored the comment and turned to the shop owner again.

"I need that medicine now! Sakura could be…she could be…" Roy strode forward and grasped Ed's coat collar, turning the boy to him.

"What about Sakura?" He asked, his voice deadly calm.

Oooooooooooooooooo, Roy is not happy, is he?
