A/N Slowly, I'm losing momentum and the will to continue. But I must!

- has stars in eyes-

 

Or else I'll be letting down all of my fans!!

 

Muffin: …We have fans…?

Kiki: …Of course… -cricket noise- The crickets absolutely love us.

Akina: Oh, just start writing already.

Taka: WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?!?! I HAVN'T EVEN READ THE FRIGGIN SCRIPT!

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ (Did you see? Did you see?! I was quite the last time! I DID IT!!!!!)

 

NOTE: I HAVE ONLY POSTED WHAT I HAVE AT THE MOMENT. THERE IS MORE ON THE WAY. IT IS NOT A SHORT CHAPTER. THERE IS MORE TO IT. I WILL UPDATE EVERYTIME I WRITE MORE, AND EVENTUALLY FINISH. I DON'T KNOW IF THE NEXT ONE WILL BE THE SAME, OR NOT. IT DEPENDS ON MY LEVEL OF INSPERATION.

 

/~ Akina's POV~\

 

Akina watched, as If from some one else's eyes. It wasn't Taka. It couldn't be Taka. Taka would never do such a thing… But who ever she was seeing had done it. `Taka' had swiped out a long, curved dagger, and charged Guilt. Guilt had barely enough time to bring his scythe up in a block, his face a mixture of confusion and disbelief. He was being forced backwards!! He dug his heels into the soil, trying to stay to help Akina, and yet somehow, he was no match for this `Taka'. Guilt finally broke off, ducked and swung forwards. After that, Akina lost them.

 

She finally registered the burning in her lungs as Envy's hand forced her windpipe shut. She needed air! Akina grappled with his hand, trying to claw it from her throat, But she was quickly losing strength. A deep, black calm was slowly settling on her, seeping into her bones and starving her of light. Her eyes glazed over. A frustrated yell came from beside her.

 

-%*--------------*% -

Your bottles' almost empty
you know this can't go on
Because of you my mind is always racing

The needle's breaking your skin

The scar is sinking in
And now your trip begins but
It's all over for
It's all over for

-*%------------------------%*-

 

“I KNOW WHAT YOUR PLANNING ENVY, DON'T YOU DARE!” Guilt shouted out of pure desperation, with a hope that was fading, fast- like Akina. Her desperate attempt at simply pulling his hands from her throat was getting weaker; it soon grew into a pathetic attempt at pulling. Her hand dropped, and the light faded from her eyes. Envy's grip never relented. Guilt was struggling, trying to reach her while Taka pinned him to the ground, his expression blankly mocking.

 

Akina shuddered once, and then went limp.

 

-%*---------------*%-

You
for you
when you're on the edge and falling off
It's all over for you
For you
When you're on the edge and falling off
It's all over

-*%----------------------------------%*-

 

Guilt gave a shuddering gasp, and finally forced the boy off of him. A look of rejection and loss was brilliant in his eyes, outshining the normal amethyst. Envy grinned, and let the soul-less doll that had once been Akina buckle to the ground. From behind Envy came a frustrated yell, a blur of red, and Envy was suddenly in the air, sliced into two.

 

/~Ed's POV~\

Ed watched as Akina slowly dropped to the ground, and a soft gasp escaped his lips. He wasn't helpless yet, and he couldn't get around the fact that he had stood back and let another innocent be dragged into the mess that he had gotten himself into. His scowl grew deeper and more pronounced, and yet quickly grew into a thin-lipped sneer as he shot from the bushes, whipping out his automail sword.

 

-%*----------------*%-

I know what runs through your blood
You do this all in vain
Because of you my mind is always racing
And it gets under my skin
To see you giving in
And now your trip begins but
It's all over for
It's all over for

-*%-----------------------------%*-

 

Envy was in half in a flash, the expression on his face barely computing what had just happened. Guilt watched in morbid shock. In watching what had happened to one of his enemy's, the same sneer decorated his own face, and he drew upon that strength, pushing Taka off. Something suddenly wasn't the same about the boy. Guilt noted that Taka's eyes where clearer as he turned around. The fuzzy haze that had once shrouded the boy's features was disappearing. The other children where beginning to look around in confusion. Some dropped to their knees and began to sob. Other's came to comfort them, even though it was evident that they where fighting back tears, too.

 

Envy snapped back together, a brief light binding the skin and tendons back into place. Ed looked like he would lose it, though his stance was carefully restrained. Guilt growled from low in his chest. The feeling that someone had died hadn't sunken in yet. The tears had yet to fall, Ed knew. Guilt, how ever, did not adopt the stance that Edward was taking. Instead, he flung himself at Envy instantly.

You
For you
When you're on the edge and falling off
It's all over for you
For you
When you're on the edge and falling off
It's all over

/~Winry~\

 

A clanking sound alerted her of Al's presence but Winry did not stir. Her eyes where plastered to the scene unfolding before her, invertible, even to watch Al enter. A startled cry arose from Al. he was realizing that his Brother was in mortal danger- and that Akina was past it. Winry looked over at Al. She knew that even though that body did not allow Alphonse to cry, She could be sure that that was what he would be doing.

 

But instead of waiting in the shelter of the tree line, Al hurled himself out, into the clearing. At first; Winry thought that Al would fight. But at a second glance, she realized what he was doing. He was rushing over to Taka, scooping up a stick on the way.

 

Winry stared out after them, trying to see what they where doing. Taka was scrawling something furiously into the dirt, and Al was helping him. It was taking on the look of a circle… With a sickening jolt, Winry realized what they where doing. Alchemy. And not any Alchemy, either. The very type of Alchemy that had deprived Al of his body. The circle was being completed, and Both boys where going to be sent to there doom.

 

-*%----------------%*-

And now you're dead inside
Still you wonder why
It's all over
And now you're dead inside

Still you wonder why
It's all over

-%*-----------------------*%-

 

The rest happened in a blur. Envy was smiling a strange smile. Almost as If he knew what would happen from her. Ed ward lurched backwards from one of Envy's swings, and caught sit of his brother. Winry reached out to them, screaming. She didn't know if it was outloud, or in her head, But she knew those three words would haunt her for the rest of her life, as would the memory.

 

“DON'T DO IT!”

 

A soft, yet grim whisper escaped the suit of Armor. Winry, Ed and Guilt froze.

 

“…I loved her…”

 

Taka and Al slammed their hands against the circle.

 

-*%-------------%*-

And now you're dead inside
Still you wonder why
When you're on the edge and falling off
It's all over for (You, for you)
And now you're dead inside
Still you wonder why
When you're on the edge and falling off
It's all over for (You, for you)
And now you're dead inside
Still you wonder why
It's all over
