On one fine spring morning in the office...

Ever thing went to hell.

It was practically a normal day. Everyone-not including Roy of course- was doing their normal work. Fuery was fiddling with some machine, Falman was... well.. doing what Falman's do. Breda and Havoc were going back and forth from screwing around to doing paperwork. And Hawkeye was pointing her gun at Roy... Again...

"Sir... If you don't start doing your paper work for once... just once.. My finger might just slip.." She threatened the cowering colonel.

"H-hey..." He started " W-w-we all know you're t-too good to h-have a slip up l-like that!"

She stared over the barrel of her gun for another heartbeat. She lowered her weapon slowly. "You get off this time sir, but flattery will get you no where..."

Roy sighed and picked up his pen, "Yes, right Lieutenant."

And, right about then, is when the Elric's came into the picture...

See, this is where everything goes to hell. Pure hell.

Both Elric's burst into the room and turn to each other at the same exact time.

"I WIN!"

...

Havoc looked over briefly, "If you're wondering who won getting here first... It was you, Alphonse."

Said Elric threw both hands into the air, still panting from the long run."YES!"

"Aww... Well nice race!" Ed looked at his younger brother with a light smile. He was panting harder than Alphonse, bracing his hand on his knees. Durring his attempts to get air back into his lungs, his breath hitched several times, stopping completely. To Roy, it looked like there was a lot of effort there needed just to breathe.

Roy placed his pen down and held his head in one hand, elbow bracing on the desk, "Hey, Fullmetal, you sure are breathing hard..." He smirked. "I'm surpirsed you could run this far, with your tiny legs and all."

Ahh, and there is the look of pure death.

Edward opened his mouth to reply with a stinging retort, but his breath hitched before he got the chance. His eyes widen briefly before closing in a coughing fit. His breath came in shallow gasps now.

Al looked at his brother with full concern. "Brother? Are you alright?"

"Yeh...y-yeah...I'm...fine..." Ed managed to wheeze out. Not soon after the words left his mouth, he went into another coughing fit and collapsed to his knees.

"Brother!" Alphonse fell to his own knees and leaned into his older brothers face. He looked on the verge to call and ambulance.

Roy stood up quickly from his desk, looking over it to get a better view of the Elrics. While the younger was freaking out, Ed was hardly breathing at all. You couldn't even hear the gasps for breath anymore.

In a flurry of panic, Edward seached his pockets, apparently not coming up with what he needed. Shock painted it's way across his face.

Alphonse looked between shocked, horrified, and furious. "You don't have it?"

Edward shook his head weakly, still gasping for the badly needed oxygen.

Roy dodged around his desk and knelt down to the wheezing Elric. He looked over at Al, "What the hell is wrong with him, Alphonse!"

Al snapped out of his trace and attempted to answer "B-brother- h-h-ha-has-"

"Asthma?" Riza suggested quickly, just as surprise as the rest.

Alphonse nodded quickly, looking back to his brother worriedly. "He doesn't have his fucking inhaler either!"

'Oh this must be really bad' Roy thought, 'Alphonse just swore! It has to be REALLY bad!'

With a sudden movement, Kain was standing and ripping through desk drawers. He dug around until he found something. He didn't even bother closing the drawers as he spun around the desk in a heartbeat and crouched down in front of Ed. In his hand, he held a small white devise.

Fuery tapped the young alchemists shoulder. When Ed looked up weakly, Kain showed him the white thing. Placing a hand on his chest, Fuery lightly pushed Ed into Roy. Roy took his weight and held him up, although completely unknowing of what was happening.

Kain placed on end of the white devise between Edward's lips. He looked into his golden eyes and nodded tightly. Ed stared back through half lidded eyes and nodded weakly. With the flick of a finger, Fuery pushed down one end of the white devise- Roy now realised was a inhaler-, releasing a small hiss of medication. At the same time, Ed attempted to breath deeply. He succeeded with a long breath and exhausted sigh.

He fell further into Roy's arms. The gasping was now deep breaths, and his eyes were closed in relief. When he opened his eyes again, he looked at Kain and mouthed 'Thank you.'

Fuery nodded back, a light smile and blush on his face. "Just the first thing that came to mind, ya know?"

Havoc twitched out his stunned trance. " Huh... That's odd.."

Riza glaced at the smoker "What is?"

"Well, you would never guess by looking at either of them- Fuery or Edward- that they had asthma..." Havoc said slowly, sitting down and pulling out his cigarette package.

Roy spoke up with a small smirk on his face, "You know, if Fullmetal could either move or talk now, you know he would kill you for your completly stupidity."

"Yeah.." He lit a cigg and breathed it in deeply. "Yeah... yeah I know.."

Kain glanced over at Edward, who was recovering a little more. He tried to stand up, but Roy held him down. Ed batted weakly at Roy's arms, not really in such a hurry to get up anymore.

"You know, Ed, it's been proven that asthma attacks are linked to not having enough vitamin D..." Fuery said matter-of-factly.

Al looked over to his brother, silver meeting gold. "Hmmmm... I wonder..." He smiled and laughed a bit.

Ed just glared back. He knew exactly what Al 'wondered'. And no. That wasn't going to happen. No...

Never.

Hawkpath: Aww... It's ok Havoc! I said the same thing when I found out my friend had asthma...

Ed: You're a tottal bitch, you know that?

Hawkpath: Flattery gets you no where in life, Edward. No where at all.

Ed: Hm. Well. Still...

Hawkpath: Still nothing. Shut up and let me finish. Unless you WANT the frying pan again?

Ed: NO MA'AM!

Hawkpath: Good boy. Now, about this entire thing. I got the idea in health where we had to learn about different non-comunicable diseases. Asthma was one I found interesting, and when I looked up more about it, I found out that- As Fuery said- A lack of Vitamin D is linked to asthma attacks. Now, that has nothing to do with what is going on here, BUT! It made me think. What's the one thing Edward Elric hates?

Ed: You.

Hawkpath: Besides that.

Ed: Needles?

Hawkpath: Aannnd?

Ed:...

Hawkpath: OH COME ON!

Ed: WHAT! What are you talking about?

Hawkpath: Milk you dipwad! M. I. L.K! Would you like some?

Ed: NO BITCH!

Hawkpath: Hm. Well. And you get Vitamin D from milk. Soo? Heheh! Plus, I just thought it would be pretty cute/ironic if Ed had asthma. So this was born.

Ed: She does that alot... Lets count off all the bad things she done to me, Hm? Asthma, getting it by a car, hypothermia, frostbite, getting crushed by a bookcase, smoking, drowning- Shall I go on?

Hawkpath: No. Because this is getting long and pointless. Anyway! Review please! Tell me what you think! See ya!
