Chapter 11 – My decision
Roy was staring at the photos in front of him. He didn't remember the last time he felt so helpless. Maybe the night Ed ran run away. But this way something different. It wasn't 'only' Ed anymore and Ed knew that.
Flashback ++++
Roy came home or what they now called home. They lived together with Hughes and his family until they would find another house. None of them wanted to go back to the place they used to call home. It was actually not possible as the fluid on the walls was poisonous and they couldn't remove it. The Brigadier General thought that this caused Ed to throw up as he always had been sensitive to his environment. He walked quietly through the living room hearing somebody filling a glass of water in the kitchen. Ed was standing at the counter empting his glass. His hair was plastered against his forehead, his face glistening from a thin layer of sweat. Another nightmare? Roy, Riza and Hughes had found Ed often in the kitchen at night sweating. The only respond they got out of him was 'nightmare'.
Ed turned around as he heard somebody approaching the kitchen.
"Hey." Roy stopped at the threshold and leaned against the doorframe. Ed put the glass back into the sink.
"Hey. You're home already?" Roy sighed. He didn't manage to come home the usual time with the investigation of the case. It was a miracle that he could go home before midnight.
"I feel like shit." He ached his back and tried to stretch his stiff muscles.
"Actually you like it, too." Roy rolled his eyes. Sure you would get such a comment from your teenage boy. He tried to get over with it and changed the subject.
"Another nightmare?" Ed looked at him and nodded. "Want to talk about it?" Ed hesitated and looked to the floor. Roy was standing beside him waiting for an answer.
"It's always the same nightmare. Always about… the past." The expression on his face was painful.
"About him?" Roy's voice was soft trying to calm the boy. They didn't mention the name but they knew who was meant. The teenager nodded and swallowed.
"This incident what happened at home… It was him, too…" Roy looked at him questionably.
"I… We don't know that. He's in the East."
Ed smiled sarcastically.
"I know that it was him." He left the kitchen and walked back to the guest room he shared with his brother.
Flashback end ++++
Roy sighed heavily. This conversation took place two nights ago and he had ordered Hughes to investigate Ed's statement. He hoped the boy wasn't right. Than somebody knocked on the door.
"Come in." Hughes had a sober expression on his face a thick folder under his arm. Roy knew immediately what this would mean to him and his family.
"So Ed was right?" His best friend took a place in front of his desk and laid the folder on it.
"Have you ever heard of the 'Seven Sins'?" Roy gave him a look.
"You mean Envy, Lust, Gluttony, Wrath, Pride, Sloth and Greed? The seven sins forbidden for humankind to fall for? Hughes that is an old believe. Nothing more. What would they have to do with a housebreak?" Hughes gestured to the folder.
"Look in it. You will be impressed." Roy took the folder and opened it.
"The Seven Sins – Secret Military Organisation under the command of Colonel Frank Archer. Archer?" Roy swallowed. He knew this man and his ambitions. Hughes nodded.
"Go on." Roy got back to his reading.
"The members are known as violent and have committed several crimes in their childhood and early adulthood. They were under military custody until they had been old enough to enlist. Afterwards they got a special training to make them loyal to the military and their superior officer." Roy looked at Hughes. "This can't be How is it possible to have a military organisation consisting of criminals?" Hughes shrugged.
"I don't know. The only thing I know is that they were there as the child was shot in Liore." Roy couldn't believe what Hughes was saying.
"Do you mean they did that? Killing a child?" He swallowed. Nobody can be that cruel. He didn't get an answer. To be honest he didn't want one. "Where are they now?" Hughes leaned forward.
"They are here. Somewhere here in Central." Roy nodded a deep frown on his face. He turned the page and his eyes got wide. One of the records held the name he didn't want to read in there. William Elric. Code Name: Envy. He gasped. The picture next to the personal details showed a man with dark green hair and maniac lilac eyes.
"This…this is…" Roy swallowed. "It can't be…" Hughes nodded.
"I know it's hard to believe but it's him and it is the person Izumi and Ed described as the person who tried to rape him." Hughes swallowed and thought about the best way to announce the next message. "And it's not the first time those people did something they did to your house." He licked his lips. "They did it normally to somebody who was against the state or was a known criminal. But they did it the same way. They smeared this fluid on the walls and destroyed the house and killed everyone who lived there. No matter if they had been children, women or men. They just killed and let it look like a robbery. Sometimes they raped the children." Roy got angrier with every minute Hughes was talking.
"Those bastards!" His face was red from anger as a thought flashed through his mind. He stood up immediately and walked around his desk to leave the room.
"Where are you going?" Hughes stood up as well trying to follow his friend through the hallways. Roy didn't look back as he went through the main entrance of Central HQ.
"When they are here and when this Envy is William than we have to talk to Ed and we have to protect him." He walked fast to his car opening it. "I don't want this Bastard to get to him." Roy got inside and started it. He slowly drove out of the gate of Central HQ. There was not much traffic so he sped up. Suddenly another car hit him in the front. He didn't see it approaching him. He was bleeding heavily as he fainted.
