Winry called Nelly from down the street, and asked her to babysit the sleeping boys for her for the remainder of the night (thank god she was still awake!), and promised she would be back by the morning as she silently grabbed her coat and walked out the door.

"Some Babysitter I am." Winry said to herself as she unlocked the car door and drove down to the train station.

She walked down to the dimly lit platform alone.It was 9:20 p.m.It should take about two hours to reach Central station.She checked the train times once before sitting at one of the wooden benches to wait for her train to arrive.

"Hm well I guess it isn't that late," Winry said gazing down at her ticket she was holding.

The train will arrive in Central at exactly 11:00 p.m.

"But it will be when I get there." Winry sighed, adjusting her coat collar.

"I wonder what has happened?"

"Maybe something had happened to Rose and Theo while on there honeymoon, no , she would've called me personally."

"Hmm...maybe its Riza? or Shiezka? hmm...I wonder."

Winry silently thought as she train pulled and streamed into view.

"What if its...them."

Winry quickly shook herself of the thought.

"No, they're never coming back."

Winry handed the man her ticket and sat down in one of the many empty seats in the car, she put up her luggage in the above compartments, which only consisted of a change of clothes, a washcloth, her toothbrush, her writing journal and a few other books to keep her busy throughout the two hour trip.

Winry adjusted herself against the coarse, wooden bench and shifted her head to rest against the foggy window, her breath fogging more with every breath she took.Her eyes became heavy and slowing she drifted into sleep.

"NEXT STOP CENTRAL STATION."

Winry yawned. Stretching her arms as she woke from the sound of bells and a train car door shifting open.A small crowd of central passengers began to board as she quickly scurried to collect her belongs and onto the city platform.A cold chill rush passed, making her clutch her coat collar with her free hand.Her disheveled blonde bangs blew in front of her tired blue eyes as she walked down the platform for a sign of an officer in blue, her escort.Her escort happened to be Havoc, tired and a bit wasted as he had just come from the town bar before the colonel had called him up and ordered him to pick up the small blonde girl.Havoc sighed, spotting the girl in the center of the platform looking a tad bit more tired than he (and a little lost), holding her luggage and impatiently waiting for him.

"Hey hows it been?" He said nonchalantly, cigarette in mouth.

"Oh Mister Havoc!" Winry exclaimed, sounding a but too surprised by his entrance.

The blonde man took one last drag of his cigarette before smooshing into the concrete ground.

"Should we be going then?" He said, showing her towards the small government car parked just a couple yards away.

"Sure."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"So Miss Rockbell, hows Rizenbul?" Havoc said, trying to start a conversation after a long awkward silence they had been in since the beginning of the ride.

"Okay, not much to see...you know that." She half laughed, happy they were actually talking.

"Ah." he replied.

Winry turned her gaze to the window.For it to be so late, many of the shops were still open.Of course many of the family businesses had long since closed for the night, but some bars and old convienence stores were still up and running, and most of the drunken men still roamed the dirty sidewalks along with the woman in fishnet stockings and tight leather miniskirts accompanied most of them.

"Fowl people." Winry muttered under her breath as to not let Havoc hear her musings.

"Well Miss Rockbell, we're here." He said, pulling up to the huge building, and letting her out at the drop-off.

"Nice seeing you!" Peering back into the passenger window, saying her goodbyes.

Winry handled her Suitcase in her right hand as she brushed her fingers through her messy hair with the left one.

She gave a sigh, and walked towards the glass doors of the hospital.
