''Lieutenant Hawkeye, Fuery was looking for you-!'' Havoc said when hearing Riza's steps inside their office, but stopped when seeing a bothered expression on the usually serious blonde and blood on her Military jacket. ''Lieutenant are you alright! What happened?!'' Jean started panicked seeing Riza nod, ''This isn't my blood...'', ''Then who's is it!?'', ''It's Edward's.'', ''The kid's???'' Havoc said even more worried, ''Where is he?!'' Jean questioned. ''He left after he cleaned his face off and I bandaged it.'' Riza explained, ''...You mean...'', ''The Colonel laid a hand on Edward...'' The blonde said quietly, ''Why don't you tell the Chief anything!'', ''I should take this off before anyone else notices.''. Havoc knew when the blonde Lieutenant took off her military jacket in silence leaving her in her turtleneck, that she was quietly planning something, ''I'm going to take care of this, before it becomes hard to take off.'' Riza said quietly and left. ''Brother, you're back-!" Al started when his brother came back to where they were staying at, stopping when seeing the small alchemist's face and tear stained eyes, ''Brother!... Your face!... What happened?!'' The suit of armor started till he felt Edward hug him tightly and break down. ''I don't want to be here Al!... Let's go!... Please... I don't want to be here anymore...'' The small alchemist sobbed with the Al putting his hands around the shaking blonde and nodding, ''Yeah... We'll leave today... We can go back with Winry and Aunt Pinako... Okay Brother?...''. ''Tell me you seen Fullmetal around!'' A voice said making his team and Riza look up later that day, ''He left a while ago.'' Riza said simply without looking up concerning Havoc who just worked on glancing over to see Roy put a hand to his face, looking regretful. ''Shit...'', ''No one told you to take out your bad mood on Edward in the first place.''Riza started standing up making Roy perk up when seeing Riza in just her turtleneck, ''Lieutenant?-!'', ''No one told you to lay a hand on Edward! He's still a child!''. The sound of the harsh slap filled the room surprising the team and Roy at how angry the usually calm blonde was, ''You never raise a hand to anyone, ever!'' Riza said angered when the flame alchemist put a hand on his swelled bruised cheek finally looking at her. ''I didn't mean to... It just came out wrong...'', ''It came out wrong?! Edward came crying to me!'' The blonde said completely angered, ''His blood is on my jacket!...'' She said pained, ''Do you have any idea what you've done?... Well do you?!'' She asked seeing Roy look down guiltily. ''I do...'', ''Well you can't fix this! You went to far this time! You're no man!'' Riza said stopping when the phone ring getting a grip of herself and anger making a face to Roy before going over to answer the phone, ''Hello-? Alphonse...'' She said pinching the bridge of her nose. ''Yeah... I see... I understand...Well, please take care of him for me... Thank you for letting me know...'' The blonde said hanging up and slamming her hands down on her desk, ''Alphonse just informed me that they're leaving back to Resembool for a while...''. ''And Edward won't say a word to him... I hope you're satisfied with yourself Sir... I hope you really are...'' She said holding back her anger grabbing her military coat and Black Hayate into her arms, ''I'm leaving, Havoc keep an eye for me alright?'' She said walking by Roy. ''Actually...'' Riza started stopping in her steps, "Edward did have one thing to say to you...'' She said staying quiet a moment, ''It's over.'' She said simply without looking at Roy once, leaving the flame alchemist in a state of shock as Riza left, wishing he could take everything back. ''Brother... When you said 'It's over', you meant being over with the Colonel didn't you?...'' Al asked seeing Edward give a pained expression on the train, ''Yeah... I don't want anything to do with him anymore...'' Edward said simply, ''I hate everything about him.'' He finished hurt.
