'Here you are the last chapter. Enjoy! '
Chapter Eight
When Al arrived in Lior it was in ruins. The beautiful buildings that once laid the whole town were now gone. The only building that stood was the sun god church that stood high; almost touching the heavens.
Al ran towards the big oak doors. He stopped abruptly at the entrance and looked up. The doors that seemed small at the train station were now about twenty feet high from where he stood.
He placed his hands firmly on the doors and pushed. They budged and he advanced in.
The seats that once laid the floor were now gone, or more eaten. Al walked in further. He stood in the middle of the church. He looked up to see spider webs dangling freely on the dome above.
"Lust, metal, can I eat it?" Al snapped out of his trances at stared at the face of Gluttony.
"No, Gluttony, he's already Envy's job," said Lust turning around and leaving.
"Oh, but…" said Gluttony putting a finger in his mouth and drooling.
"Where is Envy?! Tell me now!" demanded Alphonse.
"Why, I'm right here," said Envy from on top of the dome. He fell on top of Al, but Al kicked him off. Al nailed Envy in the mouth, but Envy repaid him by kicking is helmet off and touching his blood seal.
Al retrieved his helmet and glared at his opponent.
"Is that all you got?" asked Envy.
"Nope. Roy now!" Roy jumped off the balcony and snapped at Envy. Roy landed with a loud thud and nodded to Al. Al clapped his hands and placed them on the transmutation circle. The church turned a light blue as it was activated.
Envy stared at the two and started dragging his body over to them. But He started spiting up red liquid. Al watched in horror as Envy started quivering in pain. Roy took out a bone from his pocket and was about to through it in with Envy when Al stopped him.
"Al, what are you doing?"
"Roy, please don't I have an idea." Al walked into the transmutation circle along with Envy and clapped his hands together and touched his chest. He found himself in front of the gate. It opened its big dark doors to revile Edward.
"Alphonse?" said a weak Edward.
"Brother…I love you…"Al walked through the doors and grabbed Edward by the arm and pushed him out. Ed was dumbstruck as he saw the door closing with Al and Envy inside. It closed shut with a loud bang and it snapped Ed into reality.
"Alphonse!"
Roy watched in horror as the two bodies's started to morph into something horrid. After awhile a short blond stood in the middle of the circle. His yellow eyes started happily at the colonel but yet, they showed sadness.
"E-Edward, is that you?" asked Roy walking closer to Ed.
"Yeah Roy, it's me," said Ed actually using Roy's name. Ed walked over to Roy and they shook.
"Good to have you back, Halfmetal," said Roy with a smirk.
"Heh, good one; I just get back and your already calling me short."
They left the church and Lior that night. They boarded the train and all Ed was staring out the window. Roy fell asleep and that's when Edward noticed that his hair and eyes were different colors.
They hit a bump and Roy jolted awake. Ed was asleep now and Roy was happy that Edward was safe and almost back home. But the thing that scared him the most was Edwards's eyes. They no longer were filled with agony or hatred. But the now glimmered with nothing; they had no expression. Roy didn't know how to explain it but he knew what he meant.
They reached Central and they headed towards Headquarters to clear Roy's name. Roy looked down to Ed and saw those eyes and knew how to describe them...An Unguarded Expression.
'Taw da! I am finally down. Now, I'm thinking of a sequel. Have any ideas?'
