"I'm sorry Al. And mostly, I'm sorry... Roy." Ed looked down at the water with tears in his eyes. He just couldn't take anymore.

"Just do it already! The faster you jump the sooner you will leave this place. If you wait to long, someone will stop you. JUST JUMP DAMMIT!" the voice in his head screamed at him.

And with that, Ed jumped.

Roy just stood there watching Ed climb onto the ledge of the bridge. He couldn't move, or better yet, he couldn't breath. He lost all feelings at the moment. What in the world is he doing? He's not going to jump is he? "Please Ed, don't." Roy said under his breath as he finally got his ability to move, let alone breath back.

Roy started to move forward, slowly so he wouldn't scare Ed. His heart started to race, he didn't know what to do.

"I'm sorry Al. And mostly, I'm sorry...Roy."

Roy stopped. Did he just say, he was sorry, to me? Why would he... Roy was cut off in mid thought as soon as he saw Ed jump.

"NO ED!!!" Roy ran to him and he tried to grab his auto-mail arm. But it was to late. Ed was out of reach. Roy looked the way the water was rushing.

SPLASH!!! Ed had already hit the water. Roy jerked his head back to where he saw Ed last.

"Shit! There's rocks. Oh please Ed, don't hit the rocks!" Roy yelled as he jerked off his jacket.

"What happened." someone from the streets of Central came up to Roy.

"Don't ask questions, just listen to me. I need you to run as fast as you can to Central, tell the guards that Mustang sent you. Then proceed to tell the guards that I need help and to get someone down here as fast as they can. Tell them Ed is in danger. Do you understand that?"

"Yes, but-" the man was cut off by Roy's hand.

"JUST GO!" and with that, he jumped right in after him.

Ed just sat there submerged under the water because the weight of his auto-mail was weighing him down for the moment. He was to busy to care before it hit him. Roy was calling my name. Oh God. Why did he have to see this? Ed asked himself as he slowly started to rise from the water.

As he broke to the surface, he didn't have time to react, before his head smacked a big rock that was pushing itself above the surface. Ed remember seeing one thing before he slipped into the blackness of unconscious. Roy.

Roy hit the water, and as soon as he came back up, he started looking for Ed. He saw him rise above the water a few inches away from him. He started to swim towards him. He was swimming as fast as his legs would let him kick and his arms could stroke. He was not only fighting for himself to stay up, he was fighting to save Ed.

Roy took a deep breath and dove under the water. He remembered the current wasn't as bad under. As soon as he had come up for water. He saw Ed hit the rock.

"Ed." That was the only words that escaped his lips as he saw the teen look at him, and then slowly close his eyes.

Roy finally made it to Ed. He grabbed him and started to swim holding his head above the water. Roy could see the blood dripping down Ed's head and the huge gash that it was flowing from.

Roy looked up and saw the guards from Central and Armstrong standing on the side of the river with their hands out. Roy was thankful that the man had gotten there in time. If he didn't, Roy would have no idea how he was going to get out of the river with Ed on him.

Roy reached out and grabbed one of Armstrong's hand because he was leaning out farther then the guards. Armstrong pulled Roy to the bank and heaved him and the limp body of Ed up.

As soon as Roy was sat on the ground. He leaned over to check on Ed. Ed was pale and had ice blue lips. His breathing and heartbeat sounded like they had stopped because they were so faint. "Armstrong." Roy managed to have spit out before he felt himself starting to shake.

"Yes sir?" Armstrong replied with a worried look on his face.

"I..I'm not ex..exactly sure... but I think Ed is gg... getting or has hypothermia. Did you bbb...bring anything to warm him?" Roy stuttered .

"No sir."

"Shit. Listen to me, pick him up, and rush him to the hospital. Do it now!" Roy looked up with fear and anger in his eyes. Armstrong met these eyes, and picked Ed up quickly pressing the still limp body to him. He gave one last look at the Colonel and ran off without looking back.

Roy tried to get up but his legs gave out. The guards came over to try and help but he shooed them away.

"I want you to go tell Hawkeye what has happened. Tell her where I am, and to get the car and come here. I am in no condition to walk right now." Roy looked at them with eyes that made them a little worried.

The men saluted and ran off, leaving Roy on the soaking wet ground in his dripping uniform. Please Ed. Be ok. I worked to hard to save you to have you give up now. Please, I can't lose you. Roy thought to himself, as he slowly laid on his back on the ground and closed his eyes hoping Hawkeye would get there soon.

Authors note:

I know, I said to some of you, it would be posted on Friday. But there is one person that was soo eager to see this chapter. So EmoNekoNinja, this one is for you.

I tell you now, they will get longer. Trying to write this with lots of school stuff is hard only because I write most the stories in my mind at school. So I promise this will get longer. I'm not to fond of this chapter much. I wrote this one actually at home and not at school while listing to a sad song. So it really came to my mind while listing to the song.

If you have any suggestion for the next chapter, let me know right away so I can start working on it.

If there is something in here that you would like me to change, tell me. I will have no problems doing so since I have to much free time at home as it is.
