Chapter Five

It was early when Roy got ready to head into town. Roy had already had a old fashioned man to man talk with both Jean and Mase. Both men knew that they both had to watch out for Riza just in case anyone else tried to hurt her.

Roy walked out of the bedroom with things he might need when he got to town.

Riza walked with Roy as he went out to the corral to saddle Diablio.

As Roy put the saddle blanket on Diablio's back and the horse and reached for the saddle, then the damn horse reached back and threw off the blanket.

Roy started cussing and Riza was laughing so hard she had to sit on a bale of hay to keep from falling in her butt.

Roy looked at Riza and couldn't believe that this beautiful woman was standing in the corral laughing at something this horse.

Roy walked over to Riza and took her into his arms and kissed her. When he lifted his head looked at Riza and whispered, "Lady, you're not only beautiful, you're really lethal and when I get home I'm going to ask you to Marry me."

Riza smiled at him and as tears filled her eyes she touched his face and said, "Then you better come back home fast so we can plan our marriage, because I love you Roy Mustang."

As they embraced one more time, they heard Diablio snicker and they both chuckles as Black Hayate touched noses wirh Diablio as if they knew what was going on.

Roy took hold of the saddle horn and grabbed a hand full of Diablio's mane and swung up onto the saddle. Riza gave Roy the reins to Donald's horse so Roy could take Donald's body to tow.

Riza blew Roy a kiss and waved aps Diablio reared up and screamed and raced off towards town.

Riza with Black Hayate went back inside the cabin and she wiped off the tears from her face.

Jean walked over and asked, " Is there anything I can do for you?"

Riza smiled at him and she said, "First we need more wood so I can get water heating so I can clean this place."

Roy rode at a steady pace so he wouldn't tire Diablio out.

It was nearly evening when Roy got to town. He tied Diablio outside the Sheriff's Office.

Just as he was going to open the door, Alex opened it and he said, "Roy, what's going on, why are you here?"

About that time Breda opened the door and when he saw Donald's body was tied on the back of his back.

"Roy, what's been happening out at your place?" Breda asked.

Roy said, "Before we talk, I need to take care of Diablio, before he gets upset."

Breda reached out and took the other horse and looking at Alex he said, "I'll take Donald's body to Doctor Knox, then I'll take his horse over to Fuery for him to take care of."

At dinner Roy told Alex, "Donald tried to shoot Riza, he was helping Archer kill her."

It was late when Riza with the help from Jean they cleaned Roy's cabin and started cooking dinner for the three of them, and oh yea, for Black Hayate too.

The night was the longest night that both Riza and Roy had to endure.

It was late by the time dinner and dishes were done. Both Jean and Hughes were ready for bed, Riza told them, "I'll see you both in the morning."

Then Riza sat in Roy's favorite chair with Black Hayate in her lap as she closed her eyes and cried because she really was in love with Roy.
