Chapter Eight:

Love

Havoc sees the truth! What will occur now?

"What the hell...what the hell is wrong with you, Roy?" shouted Havoc, standing in the doorway of the Mustang house.

Roy grinned.

"Hey there, Havoc." he said, smiling, "What are you doing here, interrupting my fun?"

"'Fun'?" repeated Havoc, bewildered. "You call beating your child, the child of Riza...fun?"

"Yup." said Roy, smiling, "It's fun as anything. It helps me calm my hate for her."

Havoc clenched his fists, and shouted, "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU? YOU BASTARD...SHE'S YOUR DAUGHTER FOR PETE'S SAKE!"

"Mm..." Roy licked his lips, "Sake (said as in the name of the alcohol.)...I could use some more of that."

"You're drunk!" exclaimed Havoc, "Is that why you didn't come to Riza's funeral?"

"Riza...?" said Roy, "Now who might that be?"

"Roy Mustang..." Havoc walked over to him. "I hope that when you realize what has happened, you will forgive me for this."

"For what? Interrupting my fun?" asked Roy.

"No." responded Havoc, "For this."

As he reached Roy's side, his fist shot up into his former Commanding Officer's jaw.

"Erg!" cried Roy as he fell backwards, blood dripping from his jaw.

Havoc glared down. "Roy...why did it have to come to this?"

Roy smiled. "Ah? Well...it's all thanks to Riza. Because of her death, I was able to realize how much I hated that bitch of a daughter of mine."

It was then that Havoc grabbed Roy by the collar, and picked him up.

"What now?" said Mustang, scowling.

Havoc pulled back and extended his fist into Roy's jaw again, this time with the eyes of a madman.

"You bastard." said Havoc, "You don't realize what you've done, do you?"

He glanced over at the unconscious Jenny. "You...she was your daughter."

"I. Don't. Care." said Roy, "She is the form of my hate."

"YOU BASTARD!" exclaimed Havoc, "YOU 0000ING SON OF A BITCH! SHE'S YOUR DAUGHTER!"

He started punching Roy in intervals of a punch every ten seconds or so.

"She's your daughter! Don't you understand...don't you understand how much she loves you! Her love for you...why don't you feel that same way? Why the hell...are you hurting the only family you have left?"

"Because I hate her!" yelled Roy in response. "Because she's a stupid little bitch! Because she deserves death!"

Havoc made sure that his last punch, the fifteenth or so, hurt the most.

"Well I'm sure that she still loves you." said Havoc, blood on his fist. "And I hope that you've realized what you've done."

As he walked away from the bleeding Roy, he thought, I'm sorry Jenny. I hope that there will be no more trouble from now on.

Although I'm probably having an impossible hope.

When Jenny woke up, she saw no one there. There were traces of blood in the hallway where she was, and the carpet was all messed up.

What happened here? Thought Jenny, It looks like there was a fight. Where...where is Daddy?

She looked in her father's room, but to no avail. It was empty.

As she turned to leave, she noticed something out of the corner of her eye. It was a picture.

She moved from the doorway and picked up the photo. There were traces of water and blood on it.

One of the participants in the fight...father...was here? And was he crying?

As she walked out of the room, she listened. There were no sounds.

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

She checked in the kitchen, in the library, the toilets, the garage and the Living Room. Last was to check her room.

As she entered, she saw him not. But it was then that she saw it. The window was open.

"I could have sworn that I left that closed." she said, "Strange."

As she walked over, she noticed that there was blood on the windowpane.

"What's this...?" she whispered, and she looked out the window.

Lying on the ground was one Roy Mustang. Covered in blood.

I hope that I made it dramatic enough for all of you!
