NO!...Edward!!!- chapter 9

 

Ed, Al, and Elina ran through out the entire town looking for a safe place to wait and sit out the police search. “Hey….Eli…what you said back there about obeying your master…what did you mean?” asked Ed. Elina stopped running, and stood in the middle of an abandoned alley way. She pulled out her pocket watch. Ed's eyes widend. “Why Eli?...Why did you join the military?” she didn't answer. She merely grabbed Ed's right arm and lifted the sleeve. She then tapped on Ed's armor. She looked at Ed's left leg then to his right, comparing the two. “I see…so it's true…I'm Sorry.” Ed looked at Eli's right shoulder. Since she was wearing her orange tank he could clearly see her bullet scar. “That scar…how did you—“ Al asked but before he could finish, Elina reached for her shoulder. She didn't say anything. “Come on…we shouldn't stop or else they'll catch up.” She started off again. Ed and Al looked at each other, then followed her once again. They continued running, until it was about sunset. “They should have given up by now.” Said Eli. “Well…where are we now?” “On the other side of town….this may be a poor town but it is quit big.” “Eli…what really happened….you knew about our lose…about how to do a transmutation without a circle….please Eli…talk to us…” Eli turned around, tears streaming down her face. “You guys must be hungry….or Ed must be anyway.” “Yeah…Eli….I..” Ed started to say something but noticed a policeman behind Eli about to shoot her, and with out thinking, ran behind her. Eli turned around and saw the man. Unfortunately, she also saw the man shoot Edward in the chest. For a moment it seemed as though the world stood still for Eli. Without hesitation grabbed Edward, and fell to her knees holding him in her arms. Al had drawn a transmutation circle on the ground, and took care of the policeman. “ED!!!...ED Please Don't Die!!!” She yelled. He looked at her eyes screaming out in pain, even though he was not actually screaming and telling her not to worry. “I-I am ok Eli…I'll be fine…don't worr—“ He fell unconscious. “Al we have to take Ed somewhere safe!” Al agreed and picked his brother up and carried him. Elie ran to a place that was only about 8 blocks away. She pounded on the door. “Doctor Sentora!...Please open the door it's Eli!!!” suddenly the door swung open and Eli and Al went inside. “Please Dr. Sentora…My friend has been shoot you have to save him!” she said as the woman examined Ed. “Hmmm…he'll be fine…just a minor bullet wound.” She instructed Al to carry him into the next room where she provided some anesthetic and removed the bullet. “It seems as though the bullet pierced one of his lungs…probably why he's unconscious…but the bullet looks a little odd.” Elina looked at the bullet. “I see what you mean…the bullet has substance on the end that doesn't look like it is supposed to be there.” “you're right…and that worries me….it could be poison…but if it is…it would be taking effect now…and nothing has changed from when you brought him in.” Eli looked deep in thought, and at the same time very worried. Dr. Sentora nticed this and asked, “Would you like to see him….he is awake.” She said with a smile. When Eli heard that she ran into the next room. “Ed…” she said weakly, tears welling up in her eyes. Ed looked up from the bed he was laying on and said, “oh..hey Eli…[noticed her tears welling]…why are you crying?...is it because of me?” he turned away. “Yeah stupid…because you did something…well…” the room grew silent. Then it became awkward. “you know….[Eli said]…when my dad and I returned from central…I found out that my mother had passed away…my father didn't take it very well….and so….he attempted a human transmutation….[Ed looked up at Eli]…the homunculus that would have been created used my father's body as a host for his own body….he used my father to try and kill me….that is how I have this scar…then he took me to the gate…and …then I found out about what you two did…and I discovered that my father and uncle knew about it all along…” she said finishing with a look towards Edward. “I-I'm sorry….I didn't know…” “That's why you asked earlier isn't it?” “well…hey…who is your uncle?” asked Ed with curiousity. “my uncle is Colonel Mustang.” Ed almost fell off his bed. “WHAT!!!!” He hated Mustang, with a passion. He was getting uncomfortable and changed the subject. “ so…you a state alchemist…whats you code name?” “The Element Alchemist.” “I see…that suits you very well….if I remember correctly you used it to get me wet one time didn't you?” he said with a smile. “well yes I did…and I'd do it again too.” She said and blew a kiss towards him. She left the room leaving Ed blushing. When she walked out she too was blushing. I can't believe I just did that she thought to herself. She walked over to the brown haired woman standing by the window. “Dr. Sentora thank you so much for your kindness.” She said to her. “No problem Elina….you are the only one I ever get business from anymore.” “Eli you get hurt a lot?” asked Al. Eli began to fidget and eventually avoided the question. “Well…I think that I am going to be now…good night!”

The next morning, Elina walked into the room where Ed was sleeping. She put her hand on his forehead and, “Doctor Sentora!!!!....Alphonse!!!!” they both came into the room. “Yeah Eli what is it?” asked Al. “It's Ed…He's buring up…he has more of a fever than he should…and at the same time he feels cold….and his breathing….I can barely hear it!”
