Edward Elric let the rain fall upon him. He was wrapped in a blanket and suffered from shock and had multiple cuts and markings on his body. Colonel Mustang was commanding many of the men to investigate. He immediately walked over to Ed and sat down next to him.

“Fullmetal, I know this is hard for you, but we need you to give a report. We need to know what happened out there.”

Ed didn't respond. He wanted nothing to do anything for the military anymore. It would be an insult to the sacrifice his remaining family had made.

“Did you hear me, Edward?”

“I did, but why should I give you a report. I already told you what happened. You write the report. I have nothing more to tell you.”

“Edward, you're being reckless. I think there is more than what you told me. I refuse to believe that this is all you have to say.”

“I will not give the military a statement. I'm through with the military. I'm through being a dog of the state,” Ed said as he took off his pocket watch and threw it at Mustang before turning to walk away from him.

“Edward, wait. Get back here.”

Ed ignored him and started to run. Mustang followed after him. He wasn't about to let the young alchemist run away from him. Mustang stumbled through the rain until he saw Ed trip and fall face first onto the muddy road. By the time he reached Ed, he realized that Ed was unconscious. He gently lifted the young alchemist into his arms and carried him to the nearest car.
