The Infantry

I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist! Constructive comments appreciated. This is my first story!

"BROTHER!"

Edward was currently in a brawl against the immortality obsessed lunatic that central had had their eyes on for some time. And let's just say the fight wasn't going in his favor.

"Augh!" Ed's struggles against the man were not going unheard as the lunatic landed another blow on the side of the young alchemists head.

"I'll get you for that Bastard!" Ed looked to his side to see that Al was still a crumbled heap of metal near the edge of the room. 'Man this guy is strong, not only did he take out al, but he's giving me hell as well!'

Ed was about to land a jab when the man twisted at the last second, at the same time grabbing one of Al's abandoned metal pieces.

'What the?'

-SMACK-

That was Ed's last thought before he was hit over the head with the metal piece, landing hard on the cold ground with a sickening thud.

"No! Brother!"

"Oh, don't worry metal man, your brother is going to be the start of a new era, where a lifetime is no longer the limit!"

The lunatic gave a vicious grin as he began to drag Ed over to one of the abandoned transmutation circles near the edge of the large room.

"Wait! What are you-"

Al's cry fell on deaf ears as the mad man in front of him activated the circle, covering the dark room in a glowing blue light.

-BANG!-

All of a sudden the lunatic fell over, his blood covering the floor and the large wall in front of him.

"Al! Are you alright? What happened where's Edward?"

Al didn't have to say a word before Riza looked over to the abandoned circle.

"Oh crap…"

The strong woman was over at the boy's side in an instant, eyes wide with panic. "Somebody get a stretcher! We have an emergency concerning Edward Elric!"
