A Night Gone Wrong
Central- The Car
" So Ed, is this your car?"
" Not really. No. I borrowed Mustang's."
" What do you mean by borrowed?"
" Well..."
Central- Hq
" So Roy, is that your car over there?" Ed said pointing out the window. " Sure is Fullmetal. The very best of its kind. Perfect for taking girls for a ride. You should invest in one, if you're planning on taking Winry on a date."
" Well, it's hard to invest in one when all my money is used for more important things."
" So then find some way to get it. You want your woman to be comfortable right?"
" Could I see your key real quick?" Roy began to take his keys from his pocket but stopped at half way. " Wait a minute, I know what you're u--" He was cut of when Ed used the side of his automail hand and struck the side of Mustang's neck, knocking him out. He took his keys and moved Roy to his desk. He stood him on his seat and put his head down. " No sleeping on the job, Mustang." Ed laughed and ran out of the room before anyone saw him.
" Ed!" She said as she hit his arm. Once she did that it caught Ed off guard and he accidently spun the wheel sending them into one of the nearby poles, in the middle of the road. His head went down on the steering wheel, really hard. His forehead started bleeding. Luckily for Winry, her seatbelt stopped her before she hit the dashboard. Ed felt lightheaded. It was a big impact, afterall. He thought he was going to pass out. He put his hand on his forehead then he looked at it. He saw there was blood on it. He quickly turned to Winry to see if she was alright. She seemed like she was in shock because she just sat there, wide eyed. He saw the headlights of a huge eighteen wheeler heading for them. " Winry, we need to get out of here." He said feeling to weak to move. She was to shocked to move. " Winry!" He screamed trying to get her attention. It was getting closer by the second. " I need to get her out of here." He shook off his weariness and grabbed her hand. He pulled her through his side.
Once he got her out he carried her bridal style and ran out of the road. When the truck hit the car there was a big explosion sending Ed and Winry flying in the air. Just before they hit the ground Ed moved behind Winry so he would take the hit.
When they hit the ground she finally escaped her shock mode and looked at him. " Oh my gosh, Edward..." Blood was all over his forehead and a little on his face. She hoped he wasn't, No he can't be. She looked at his chest it was rising up and down. She was relieved. She picked him up and ran home as soon as possible. You better live Ed, if you don't i'll be pissed as hell.
