Riza's POV:
*snap*
"ROY!!!!!" I scream through Havoc's hands.
I have no choice but to watch him being engulfed by his own flames.
"NOOOOOOO!!!!!!" I keep screaming.
I'm clutching Kallie as close as I can. His flames are focused on him and the Homunculi. I can hear all of their screams of pain, but his is the most prominent.
All of a sudden the flames stop. The homunculi look at each other, then at Roy.
"He was the last person in Amestris who could use Flame Alchemy." Lust growled.
"Well, we failed," Greed mutters, "now we better scoot before the rest of the military gets here."
Envy curses under his breath and they all run out.
Lust pauses on her way out.
"Don't forget that we let you live."
Roy continues to stand there, his body charred and fragile.
The he collapses.
I scream.
Havoc releases me.
"ROY!" I scream as I lunge towards him, searching for any signs of life.
I don't want to touch him in case he crumbles under my fingers.
I look at his face. He's smiling.
He did this to protect us. The Homunculi would have killed us had he gone with them.
But anything would have been better than this.
I gently lift his head and put it on my lap, holding his cheeks in my hands.
His body shifts and I see his eyes open.
"R-Riza?"
"Yes, it's me Roy."
Oh my god. He's alive!!
"I-I saved you guys, right?"
"Yes you did, Roy."
He sighed.
"Then I can be at peace."
"Don't you dare. Kallie needs you. The country needs you. I need you." I whisper, my tears splashing on his burned skin.
"Riza......"
"Roy? Roy, wake up. ROY WAKE UP! ROY!"
