CHAPTER 2
Roy POV-
Two months. Two fucking months without Edward. He had searched everywhere, every place he could think of, but he just ctouldn't find Ed. It was driving him insane!
No one had contacted him or anyone on his team either, so it didn't look like someone wanted anything from them, so why was Edward taken? He wasn't sure, he wasn't sure of anything anymore. His feelings were all over the place and he just couldn't place them.
He knew he felt something for the younger alchemist, but he couldn't find out what it was. All he knew was that he missed Edward, he missed his yelling and all the chaos he brought around with him all the time. Nothing was the same without him; it was too quiet, too sad, and devastating as hell.
He just wished he could get a clue on Edward's location, but the teen didn't leave a single trail behind him the night he disappeared.
Roy fell heavy in his chair and closed his eyes. 'I think I'm going insane.'
"ROY!" Maes came crashing through the door with a sheet of paper in his hand.
Roy stood up from the chair with a worried expression on his face. "Maes, what's wrong?"
Maes stood with his hands on his knees trying to regain his breath. "We found him… We finally found Ed."
Roy stood completely paralyzed with a blank expression on his face. He couldn't believe what he just heard, but he shook his head and quickly snapped out of it before walking over to his best friend.
"How did you find him? I thought we didn't have any clues," Roy asked while reaching towards the paper Maes was holding.
Maes willingly gave away the paper while he regained his posture. Roy scanned the paper, and he could see an address and some notes scribbled on it. The address belonged to an abandoned warehouse not far away from them.
"Apparently a girl had heard screaming coming from the warehouse yesterday and began to panic, she didn't know what to do so she just went home, but she came an hour ago and told me," Maes said with a sad expression covering his face.
Roy was served with new hope, but he frowned at the possibilities of Ed being hurt in any way.
Maes saw his best friend's concern and came with an encouraging smile, "You know how tough he is Roy; he is going to be okay, trust me." Maes reassured.
Roy couldn't help the small smile creeping up on his own face, even when he feared the worst had happened to his youngest subordinate Maes made him feel better, and Roy was thankful for that. Roy looked Maes in the eyes with determination before walking out the door calling out to his team, "Let's go!"
Ed POV-
He didn't know how much time that had passed since the incident, but he was pretty sure it was morning again. That also meant Jason would come later today, something Ed wasn't entirely happy about. Jason had never went that far with him as he did yesterday, he had never been that personal with him before. It seriously troubled him to high degrees, but it wasn't something he could do about it.
He couldn't perform any alchemy anymore. Jason destroyed his automail arm earlier when he was pinning him to the floor and accidentally smashed it too hard in the concrete floor. Therefore, the possibility of escaping was very low now.
He curled up in a ball and shivered, it was so cold. He didn't have his clothes because they were in a pile in the corner about five metres away from him, and he was too weak to even try and stand up, or sit up for that matter. Jason, of course, just had to throw them away five fucking metres away! He sighed and turned over to his back looking up in the roof. He was tired, he hadn't gotten much sleep at all since he was taken there, but now his eyelids were heavy, and he couldn't help himself. He closed his eyes and went into a restless slumber.
Ed waved to the librarian before sprinting towards the exit. Ed had lost track of the time while he was in the library, no surprise there, he easily became absorbed in a book, but Al probably worried about him. He could imagine Al running around with his big armour suit frantically calling everyone he knew just to know if someone had seen him. Ed chuckled at the thought; it was typical Al to be so worried and caring about him, almost as if Al was the older one.
Outside, the snowflakes were falling all around him and he began walking in normal speed so that he didn't fall on any ice. Ed sighed and wrapped the big scarf tighter around his neck, he didn't like the winter, it made his automail cold and stiff, and it always resulted in an aching body. However, he had to admit that the winter was beautiful with all the white snow. The white made it all so simple, but also at the same time a beautiful sight to absorb.
He opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue. A big snowflake melted at the collision and he smiled, but soon found himself shivering again, and a frown came instead. Why must the winter be so cold and beautiful at the same time? It was annoying, but he didn't put much more thought to that matter.
Suddenly a shadow appeared before him, and Ed stopped walking. The figure was tall, he was wearing a long coat, and it was too dark to see his face, but it looked like a man. 'What now?' Ed thought before he resumed walking towards the man. The man just stood there like a statue, and it honestly creeped him out, but he wasn't going to show it or anything.
He held his breath and walked right past him. He eventually exhaled and turned. 'Huh? The man is gone!' Ed thought rapidly before he started jogging. He didn't get further than two metres before colliding into someone and falling on his ass.
"I'm sorry," Ed said, a little taken back, but he turned his gaze up to see who it was. His eyes widened a little, and he tried to get up on his feet again. 'How did he get in front of me?!' The man pinned him down to the cold ground and put his hands over Ed's face. He frantically tried to get the stranger's hands away from him, but the hold was too strong, and he felt himself slip into unconsciousness.
Abruptly awaken by cold water splashing over him Ed shrieked and began shuddering. He wrapped his arms around his naked, cold body and couldn't help the small whimpers escaping his lips. The water made the cold unbearable and it was impossible to stop the shuddering. He looked up at Jason's smirking face and hoped the gate would punish him in the near future if not sooner.
"Good evening sunshine, did you sleep well?" Jason asked happily with the smirk still visible at his face. Jason crouched beside him and stroke away a few strands of hair from his wet face. He tried to regain his breath, but the cold was making it so freaking difficult, and he couldn't help a whimper escaping his lips again.
"Are you cold?" Jason asked with a worried expression, which Ed didn't believe one second, but was something that actually made him feel a little better at the moment. All Ed could do was nod, but soon regretted the decision when Jason leaned down and whispered, "Guess I'll just have to make you warm then."
Before Ed could respond, Jason rolled him over on his back and began kissing him. 'No, not again, please!' Ed felt nauseous and tried to turn his face away, and Jason actually took the hint and backed up. Ed looked confused at Jason who held a huge grin on his face. Was he stopping? Please say he was stopping this. Apparently Jason wasn't stopping, he had just begun.
Jason shot down again and began biting his neck harshly. Ed couldn't help the gasp escaping his lips, it hurt, and Jason was probably leaving a lot of marks on him; something he didn't find very pleasant. Ed shoved Jason away, but Jason just slammed Ed's head in the hard concrete floor. Black dots appeared in front of his vision and he became dizzy. He was on the range to unconsciousness, but he became more awake again when he felt something enter him. Ed yelped and tried to push Jason away again, but he was still very dizzy, so it didn't help him much. Jason shoved harder and Ed let out a scream. The tears were already streaming down his face and a sob escaped from him.
He felt so utterly hopeless, what was he supposed to do in this situation? He couldn't take this anymore, he was sick of Jason, sick of everyone, but mostly of all he was sick of himself. 'The almighty hero of the people', yeah right. He had always hated that title, he didn't like all the attention; attention that resulted in the situation he was in now. He squeezed his eyes shut and chocked another scream from escaping him when Jason shoved harder than before. His body was protesting and he was shaking all over the place. He could see Jason smirking at him and he wondered if he should just give up, try to kill himself the next time Jason left, maybe it was for the best, it wasn't like someone was going to miss him.
No! What was he thinking; he still needed to get Al's body back. That's right, Al needed him, he had to get away from here! Ed became hysterical and tried to get Jason off him again. Jason seemed surprised in the sudden energy lurking from Ed, so Ed grabbed the chance and pushed him away. Jason stumbled backwards and landed on his back. Ed stood up clenching his teeth, the pain was huge, but he couldn't give up now. He walked over to Jason and tried to kick his head, but Jason caught his foot and tossed him in the ground. Ed lost his breath at the impact, and rolled away just in time before Jason smashed his face in. He got up on his feet again although his body was protesting from the strain. Ed was wheezing now, and didn't know how much longer he was going to last, so he needed to finish Jason off quickly.
He looked at Jason and it seemed like he was still a little dizzy from when Ed pushed him in the ground. Ed was going to take the chance before it left him, so he began sprinting as fast as he could towards Jason. Jason couldn't react in time before he got a metal foot right in his stomach. Ed could hear a cracking sound, and Jason flew across the room hitting the wall, falling limp on the ground.
He was wheezing and his knees buckled under him, resulting in him falling heavy to the floor with his face down. Before he went into unconsciousness, his name was yelled by some strangely familiar voice. It didn't take that long before he knew who it was. The voice belonged to the raven-haired man who he had missed more than he knew was possible, and he couldn't stop himself from whispering the beautiful name before everything went black, "Roy."
