The Pain Of Being A Vegetarian

Past

Alphonse's pov

"It all began when I were 8, and Edward was 9 years old. This the story of mothers death, and Edward turning a vampire:"

*flashback*

"Mom! Mom! Look what we found!" Ed and I yelled as we ran into the house, our hands full of red apples. When she didn't answer, Edward's eyebrows furrowed, and told me to stands back. He went into the kitchen, and heard him scream in terror. I ran into the kitchen, and saw a sight that would give even a grown man nightmares. Blood was smeared up walls, internal organs, all the furniture was destroyed. I looked at my brother, scared of what had happened. I then looked the way he looked, and saw a man holding my mother. She covered in blood, her face pale and her dead, blank eyes, filled with fear.
The man who was bending down to her neck, raised his, and gave us an insane, bloody smile. He chuckled as he said; "Oh? She had kids? Well, this just means more fun for me."
He tilted his head, and revealed sharp fangs, and glowing red eyes. I started qrying and screaming in fear, as he suddenly stood in front of me, reaching his hand out for my throat. "Wait! Don't touch my brother!" Brother yelled at the silver haired man. "Hoh? And why shouldn't I?" "Because, if you don't touch my brother, you can anything you want with me, if you just don't hurt him!".
I saw my brother shaking with fear, but his eyes burned with hope and determination.
The bloody monster just smirked at him, and said:"Boy, I'm a vampire, and you're just a kid. I have all the power in the world, so I can do as I please, and I was gonna do whatever I wanted to you already."
But though he said that, he pulled away from me, and slowly walked over to Edward.
"I was just gonna suck you two dry, but for such a little boy, you have quite the strong heart.
I'll take you up on your word."
I could see the relieve in Ed's eyes, "but I'm gonna lock him up, 'cause my fun is gonna last a while!" The vampire said with a wicked smile, and crazy eyes.
I could see fear in Edward's eyes, as he swallowed, and nodded.
He walked towards me, whom had just stood still, frozen in fear. "N-no! Big brother! You can't do this!" I screamed, as he transmuted a cage with blood.
"I'm sorry" he whispered sadly, as he was pulled down towards the basement.
That night I kept screaming Edward's name out, crying myself to sleep.
When I woke up again from my slumber, I did it all again.
But the only thing I could hear was Edward screaming and crying. Edward's screams only stopped when the silver haired vampire, which I found out was named Ched, fed me.
A week and a half had went by, before Ched finally had gotten tired of torturing my brother, and what else he did.
As I saw him dragging my brother up the stairs by his hair, I screamed his name out again.
"It was fun Edward, hope I see you again, so we can continue our fun."
He kicked open my cage, and threw big brother in my arms.
His whole body was covered in deep cuts and wounds. Some places on his body, you could see that his skin had been peeled of, his finger and toe nails was missing, and blood was fussing out everywhere. I cried as hugged brother tightly, not thinking that I was hurting him.
He was barely breathing when Ched said: "don't worry, he won't die, or actually he will. But I gave him my blood, so he will turn into a vampire himself when he is dead. I would love to stay and watch, but I've already been here for to long, so I will leave the fun of a new born vampire to you, bye!"
Happily he skipped out of the house, smiling as he disappeared in the evening sun.
"Edward, Edward, Edward!" I cried out, with his head in my lap. He gave me a tired smile, and weakly put his bloody hand on my cheek.
"Shhh, it's okay Al, you're safe, that's all that matters to me"
"No! I'm not okay, I need you! You can't leave me alone!" Tears streaming down my face, and I noticed some unshed ones in brother's eyes. His pupils shrinked, and he let an inhuman scream of pain out.
His eyes turned blank, and he stopped breathing. "No! Nooooo!" I screamed.
As I cried with Edward dead in my arms, the front door opened.
"Oh my God! " a voice whispered.
I turned around to see granny Pinako standing in the door, her hands covering her mouth.
"G-granny" -I sobbed- "Edward, please help Edward!" I said, the tears slurring my voice.
She hurried to my side, and took his pulse that was now nonexistent. Sadness covered her face, full knowing he was dead. She managed to take the dead boy out of my arms, and told me to follow her.
As granny kicked her front door open, not having any free hands, I could hear Winry saying welcome home.
Granny got with great deficulties Big brother into the guest room. She put him in the bed, closed his eyes, and laid his arms alongside with his legs.
"What happened?" She asked me, trying to her hide her sadness and stay calm.
"H-he killed mom, he was a-about to kill me, b-but brother sacrificed himself for me. I couldn't do anything!" I cried, and saw granny frown.
"Who is 'he'?" "C-ched, he's a vampire, and he said that he turned brother into one."
I was sobbing heavily, granny put a reassuring hand on my shoulder and said;"I know that you want to think that your brother will survive, but he's dead. Vampires doesn't exist" she said with a shaky voice.
Winry opened the door, having a confused look on face, until she saw Edward, she ran to his side.
As she started crying, we all started bawling.
The next day they village held a funeral for brother, everybody cried as I yelled at them, not to put him in the ground, that he would wake up any moment.
Everybody thought he was dead, and that was I trying to convince myself that he was alive. But I knew better.
Every day I stared out the windows, waiting for him to return. Granny didn't like it, but she thought that I would realise that it was just something that I thought up, but of course I didn't.
A week had passed since brothers funeral, and I was starting to get worried.
I sat and stared out of the window in Winry's room, as I saw a short figure staggering through the garden.
"Edward!" I yelled, and jumped off of the bed in excitement, startling Winry.
I ran down the stairs, and pulled the door open just as brother knocked. He was covered in dirt, soaked in blood, and he was crying. It made my heart ache, and I called on granny.
She was about to fall face first when she saw Edward, but hurriedly got him inside.
After a bath and some clean clothes, he just kept repeating that he was sorry. All his wounds had healed, leaving no scars, so of course we asked where all the blood came from.
That made big brother break into bawling kid. He told that when he woke up, he had been incredibly thirsty, it making his throat burn. When he had freed himself from the ground, he had smelled something amazing like granny's stew. But when he found out that it was the smell of blood, a human, that he was almost about to kill, he ran away. On his way, he stumbled upon some cows, and he couldn't control himself any longer, and had drunk it's blood.
We tried to comfort him, but he said that he had to leave, that he was afraid of hurting us. Winry gripped his wrists, telling him to stay, but in panic, brother accidently sent her flying, just because he tried to free his wrists from her grip.
His eyes had widened with fear, as he stormed out.

"Wow, all that happened, even though you were only 8 and 9 years old? That must have been hard." The always calm Riza said with pity on her face, and in her voice, put a comforting hand on Al's shoulder. No one could blame her though,
"yeah, but worst for Edward. Having to be in pain all the time, not being able to sleep, not being able to eat regular food" he said with a small smile. He had to find out a way to turn him back as fast as possible...

Well guys, that was it!
I hope you liked it!
Don't worry though, we still have to hear how Edward was tortured, so there's pain coming his way!
I do not own FMA, and I hope to see you in the next chapter
Bye!\(^-^)/
