The End?- chapter 14

"Why did you think I was dead?" Eli said to her uncle.

"Because the Furher had told me that he had sent a special ops to look in and see your success. The ops returned with news that you were killed in combat. But obviously that's not the case." He looked at his niece and noticed she was wearing Ed's jacket, also noticing she had a bandage across her right shoulder. "What's that?"

"What is what?" she said smiling. (you know the one you make when your caught in a lie.) He narrowed his eyes.

"Don't play dumb."

"I don't know what your talking about." She said still smiling. He looked at her then smiled.

"Oh really? Then I am sure you wont mind if I—" He slapped his hand on her shoulder, which made Eli close her eyes. "Escort you to your temporary living quarters." He looked down at his niece, and grinned. She still hadn't opened her eyes and her fists were clinched. "So nothing hurts, right?" She painfully opened her eyes and looked at her uncle. She started to say something until Edward jumped in.

"Look, she hurt it while we were sparing. I caught her shoulder wrong and that's the result." Roy looked at him appearing to have bought the story.

"Alright now that that is settled, let's go get some food." They followed Roy out to the mess hall. They ate their fill, except Al. Roy escorted Eli to her room, and motioned for Ed to speak with him. Ed told Al to go on to the room, that he would be there momentarily.

Roy took Ed to the roof. ()

"You Know Ed, I don't buy that story." Roy said walking toward the railing. Ed jumped slightly realizing he had been faking.

"What do you want to talk about then?"

"What really happened, I know you wouldn't be so careless to injure her while sparring, so what happened?" Ed walked over to stand a few feet away from Roy. He sighed and began to sort through his thoughts as he looked out over Central.

"Well, we were going to stop for the night in Hasenko. We saw Eli. We hadn't seen her in a while. Only the police were chasing her. She said that the mayor and police found out she was a state alchemist and were trying to kill her. We tried to help her, we ran through out the whole town, looking for a safe place to hide." Edward stopped and clutched the place where his wound still lingered.

"What else happened?" said Roy.

"They snuck up on us. One of them aimed a gun right at her. Then without even thinking, I ran in front of the bullet. For a second I felt numb, then…"

"Why Fullmetal? Why would you take a bullet for my niece?"

"I don't know. All I knew was that she was going to die if I didn't do something. So I did the only thing I could think of. I remember falling to the ground and she caught me with tears in her eyes. Her face, her sad sorrow filled face, was the last thing I remember seeing. I woke up in a strange house. Eli and Al had brought me to a local doctor that Eli had trusted. I looked around the room to find her wiping my forehead. She told me that she loved me. I was speechless, for the first time in my life Colonel I had nothing to say." The Colonel chuckled.

"So what did you say?"

"I told her the truth. Roy perked up listening for an answer I told her I loved her too, then kissed her. Suddenly, the pain came and the kiss was what kept me happy even though I had blacked out. Before then she had told me that the bullet they used was special"

"What do you mean special?"

"Through alchemy, they fused it to a substance that only reacted after it made contact with blood. Acting like a poison. I awoke the next morning to Al's explanation that she had gone into the belly of the beast to get the antidote. I was determined not to let her do it alone. Despite Al's protests, we walked out the door looking for her. Only to discover her right outside the door, on the ground, in a pool of her own blood. I felt so helpless. I thought she was dead. We brought her in the house and she was breathing hard. She had a lot more injuries than just the bullet wound in her soldier. Then she gave me the antidote and passed out. I took the antidote, Al wrapped her wounds, so everything's fine now." He finished with a smile. Roy was dumbfounded. He couldn't believe it. The military left her there, to die it seems. They finished their discussion and walked back inside. Ed walked back to his room, while Roy made a side trip to Eli's room. He quietly opened the door and looked inside. Eli was sound asleep on her bed. She didn't make it under the covers, it was probably the most restful and relaxing sleep she had had in a while. He was shocked at how she had grown, and how she had 'filled out' () Although, she was just as short as Ed. He smiled and gently kissed her forehead, leaving to go back to his room.

"So the two shrimps are still alive." Said a voice in the dark. It was that of a man, a very phsychotic man.

"So it seems, but that just means we get to have more fun with them later." Said a feminine voice.

"Thanks to the Furher, we can manipulate them any way we wish." Said another.

"Please sloth, your flattering me." Said the Furher.

"Stop flattering yourself, Pride!" Said the first voice.

"Don't be so jealous Envy." Said the Furher

"Have you given it to them yet?" asked the femine voice.

"No, but Lust wouldn't you feel better if they settled in and then had to leave?" Pride said. Lust was quiet. Sloth handed him a manilla folder reading,
