A/N: Just a short one written in tutor...

Royai forever! :)

Character: Riza Hawkeye (Obviously)


Protector

It was her duty to protect him.

Yes, sometimes he was an arrogant, womanising jerk, who was seemingly oblivious of his own limitations. And yes, sometimes he appeared to be both heartless and self-centred.

Yet he was also well-meaning, determined to reach the top, not only to repent him the crimes he had committed during the war, but also to make everyone's lives better, regardless to how many ranking men he managed to alienate on his way up.

She knew that he hid his true intentions from everyone besides his closest subordinates. After all, most of the higher-ups were either selfish, corrupt or both. Better for them to think that he was some mini-skirt obsessed Colonel, than let them know his true intent.

He was going to be Fuhrer.

He was going to change how the country was run.

And she was going to be with him all of the way, because it was her duty to protect him.

And because she loved him.
