Hey again! Welcome back to the NakabaChan all nighter! Where, much like CollegeHumor, I stay up late and write. Except, they make videos. Same difference. Anyways, please try to enjoy the story as it falls more and more into the dramatic hole that is where my soul should be.

I skipped school for a few days. I couldn't even get out of bed. I would randomly start crying again and again- it felt as though it would never stop. My life seemed so dark. I missed Anna so much. I don't know why anyone would want to kill her- she was so nice! Who didn't love her? I will find who did this, and I will make them pay. It's just like the situation with my dad- murdered. Why? Why am I the one who has to carry this burden on me? I never did anything to deserve this! I was just getting over my dad, and now my best friend! Now, I feel so horrible for not trying harder to contact her. I wish we could've spent more time together, but nope. Time has run out for me. I guess I was born with a bad deck of cards. I...I just don't get it. Why did this have to happen to me?! It's so freaking unfair! Whoever did this- I will kill them. They will pay for what they did. I will make them pay.

I immediately began thinking. I remembered my mom's phone discussion, of which she said,

" Damn Roy Mustang!" Hm. Roy Mustang.

Wait.

Mustang.

No.

Not Mustang.

It must just be a common name, right?

It has to be...

Oh my god, please just be a coincidence.

Please.

I flew out of bed, and zipped out the door. I sprinted all the way to the beach, where I had hoped to see Aaron again. Sure enough, he was there. Sitting on the very edge of the shore, tossing little rocks into the waves.

" AARON!" I yelled, tears flowing again.

He looked up at me, wearing the saddest face I had ever seen.

" What is your dad's name?!" I asked, making a threatening face.

" What?"

" Your dads name! WHAT IS IT?" I was going out of control.

" Roy..." he mumbled.

" I knew it! I knew it was him!" I gave him a hard look.

" How...how could you?" I said, trying to stay mad, but falling apart into sobbing.

" He had to, Ellie. I'm sorry. It's his job."

" It's his job?!It's his job to murder my best friend?!"

" He has a reason- he would never want to kill anyone without a reason!" Aaron seemed like he was about to cry.

" Oh yeah?! What's his reason, then? HUH?" I was being a big bully, now.

" I'm sorry, Aaron," I began. " I know it isn't your fault. It just...hurts..."

" I'm sorry, too." He stammered. We both cried together on the shore.

I stood up after a while.

" Aaron, I need to ask you a favor."

" What?"

" I need to see your dad. I need to know the reason." I felt like killing myself. It would be easier. I would see Anna again.

" Okay. Come tomorrow." He whispered the address in my ear, and walked away.

I collapsed onto the shore, staring up at the red sun. The waves crashed over me, soaking me all the way through.

I hate this.

I just want to die.

I really care about Aaron, and now I've messed it up.

My best friend is dead.

My dad is dead.

I want to join them.

It would be easier.

I wish I could, but I can't leave my mom alone.

I just want to disappear for awhile.

I fell asleep, my heart breaking more and more with each passing second.

Goodbye, Anna. I'll never forget what you meant to me. And I promise, I'll never let Roy Mustang get away. Why would he do that to you? You know what, when I find out why, I'll make him pay. Mark my words, Anna. You mean much more to me than Aaron, and I'm sorry it seemed like I forgot about you. How could I? You're my best friend. I'll always miss you.

Tomorrow. Tomorrow is the day. I'll finally find out why you had to leave me so soon. Damn that Roy Mustang. I hope he burns in hell.

Wow, sorry that this story has become so depressing. Will try to update again as soon as possible. If any of you have any ideas, please write them in the review-thingy, and it could help me a lot! Be safe!
