He had nearly escaped seeing the red head jump from the two story building lading on all fours over the woman. He didn't glance behind him; her life…was worth more then the anything. He left his dream for her though he knew if she could, she would scold him for such…disgrace… He sighed wandering the empty streets waiting.
"You thought, you could easily escape?" the female laughed. She grinned at Roy. Roy glared and raised a gun to her. Seleen frowned, "What are you doing…put that gun down."
"I've
done it already. You saw." He said calmly, "She means the world
to me, and you knowing that I'm alive puts her in danger. I'm not
taking any chances Seleen."
"If you stand there any longer
then she'll find you. That girl's got a keen sense of hearing,
and she's tuned to your voice." Seleen smiled. Mustang growled,
frown growing. He lowered the gun.
"You keep your mouth shut, just because I'm dead doesn't mean I don't out rank you still." He hissed. Seleen frowned,
"Now don't think I'd let you off so easy, Taisa." She leaned forward, no longer leaning against the wall, "You see, if I keep my mouth shut, Rose suffers either way. She would rather die then see you result to killing just for her."
"I'm not giving her that choice. She lives. End of story." He said glancing back at her, "I suspect you respect my decision and will keep out of my hair." Seleen laughed.
"Hell no!" she grinned, "You should know better."
"Just remember, I may accidentally pull the trigger next time. DeMock." He said walking away, "Even if she would rather die…I refuse to let her…" he said putting the gun back in his pocket.

"He was there! Seleen! I heard him!" The smallest female barked at the two ladies walking ahead of her.
"Maybe we should take her to a doctor." Seleen said with no emotion in her voice, "She seems delirious."
"I DON'T NEED TO SEE A DOCOTOR!" she screamed drawing attention to herself.
"Fuery. Please take Rose out." Riza waved her hand. Fuery nodded,
"Rose, why don't we go to the pound, the animals always seemed to cheer you up."
"No…I'm not in the mood." Rose folded her arms.
"How about some ice cream then?" Fuery rubbed the back of his neck. Rose glanced at him and sighed.
"Alright…I suppose." She said taking pity on the soldier trying to do his work, "I'm sorry…" she sighed.
"It's alright. I understand." He put a hand on her shoulder and walked her out. Something catching her eye as they left. But ignoring it, she followed.

To Rose the ice cream was just cold, disgusting, and sour. She couldn't taste it whatsoever, but she thanked Fuery, and said nothing more as they made their way back to the office. But something caught her eye as they walked by the park. She stopped and looked out at the forest. Was that? She shook her head, but she only turned slightly when she saw it again. She dropped the cone and darted after it, the movement of leaves meant it was fleeing. Not this time, she'd catch this stalker this time. Maybe relive some anger on it.
She was swift, but it was faster. Ducking and dodging she made a grab for a near by branch swinging and giving herself a boost and landing on the shadowy stalker. Pinning the person down from behind using two fingers to push on a pressure point on his arm.
"So. What'd you do? Rob and officer of his uniform? I know no one would be stalking me in uniform, because my uncle is dead, and I was with Fuery anyway." She hissed, "State your name! And why you were following Fuery and I!" she barked. The figure grunted and she jabbed the point harder, "Do as I say!" she hissed.
"Gah! I regret teaching those to you." He muttered, "Roy Mustang." He felt pain and weight leave him. But leaves fell from the tree above. The small Mustang had her back to a tree and was on the ground looking at him in horror.
"Y-You can't…Y-you're dead." She pointed a shaky finger at him.
"Maybe I'm an
illusion then." He lead on, trying to make her believe that he
wasn't real, "Maybe…I just wanted to see you one last time."
Rose got to her feet and walked forward.
"No…" she shook
her head, "You can't be an illusion, I can touch you." She
said, "I saw you…that night the girl died…and when I left with
Fuery today…and now…" she stood.
"Rose…there's more to it the you-"
SMACK!
Roy's eyes grew wide as he put a hand to his cheek, looking down at Rose. She was crying, but clearly she was mad.
"Y-You jerk!" she closed her eyes blinking away tears, "You left me! And you killed someone!" she sobbed.
"I'm…sorry." He knelt down to Rose, "I'm sorry. For all the pain I've caused you…but it's for your own good." He said wrapping his arms around the small girl, "I wouldn't do something so rash, if it didn't mean that something that meant the world to me would be safe to live." He whispered to her. Rose wrapped her arms around his neck and cried onto his shoulder.
"Taisa…please…please don't leave me." She sobbed, "Don't kill anyone. Stop it…Please." She said, "I don't care, I just want you home. Please. Please come home."
"What home?" he said stroking her hair, "It's burned down…"
"Edward…Edward said he'd fix it when he got home…I-I brought all that I could together, and we could get some other materials." She pulled away, "Please Taisa…Please…" ice blue eyes and onyx eyes seemed to connect, "Please." A gloved hand reached up and wiped away the tears.
"I can't promise you that." He said softly, "I've already dug myself into a deep hole. But I'll see what I can do…I promise." He smiled, "So try to be happy, and keep me being alive on the down low." He stood, "Be strong, twerp."
"But-"
"Rose…Be strong."
"Rose! Rose! Where'd you go!" Fuery called. Rose turned, but when she turned back around Roy was gone. Rose stared, was he just an illusion…no he wasn't.
"I-I'm over here! I'm okay…I lost whoever that was…" she sighed, "Taisa…" she muttered turning, and running after Fuery's voice.
