Fullmetal Alchemist Reborn

Death + Dads

(I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist, or the picture above)

          Bullets flew through the air, and screams rolled like thunder. A boy with a blonde braid, reaching to the bottom of his neck. He thumped around a bloody field, his uneven steps coming to a halt whenever an enemy approached. Clapping his hands together forcing the ground to rumble; blue sparks causing earthy hard spikes shoot out of the ground. Causing gushes of organs to slide out of disembowelled corpses. The boy shuddered as a gunshot chorused around his head. His ears rung as if he was shot.
          He turned around slowly as he felt his left chest area, where it started to hurt. When he took his right mechanical arm away from the spot whilst looking at the person who shot the gun. Blood dripping from his automail.
          He shivered and whispered "a. . ." He trailed as his life force felt like it was being drained away ". . .k. . . i. . . d. . ." Then he flopped to the crimson-brown ground, landing on one of the earth spikes he had just created. It pierced his stomach open just like it had his victims.
          His eyes lost their honey like glow, but as they did a playful smile danced across his face as he was fading away, "t. . . h. . .a. . . " he never finished what he was going to say.

          The other kid dropped her gun. Stumbling about and around her war torn country. 'I just killed someone' the realization hit her hard. Or was that big thunk against her head a rock shaped like a muscular man. Maybe it was both. Either way the next thing she knew she was surrounded by darkness.
          When she woke from her coma like state she touched the right side of her head. Then proceeded to look around the room she was in. She then almost knocked herself out again when she noticed a strangely familiar looking man. 'No' her silver eyes widened.
'I...I...I SHOT HIM DEAD!!!!' The man only stared at her for a bit before thinking that she might be hungry or thirsty, but when he tried to ask her if she needed anything she nodded. Then they just sat there waiting for the other person to do or say something.
          The man spoke first "So what do you need?" She then mentally whacked herself hard. And then again when she was about to try to talk. Remembering that she was mute.
'Okay... Um.......' She thought for a minute then whacked herself mentally again, she looked at the man who was either the boy she just shot dead or someone that looked awfully like him. Looking at him she poked his shoulder to grab his attention then, pointed to her mouth then to her throat and shook her head no. After doing this several times he finally got up and walked out of the room.
          She thought to herself 'rude' but not to long after he came back and apologized giving her a pen and some paper.
          "Write what you need there or any questions you may have." His tone was extremely manly, so she wrote what she needed and some questions:
    -water
    -Some food
-hairbrush
    ----------------------------------------
    Questions:
    -where am I?
    -who are you?
    -why am I here?

          He quickly glanced at the list, then rose to his feet. Only now did she realize how tall the blond man was. His golden eyes paced to the door with his feet following after. It took him a bit longer to grab the things she needed. Especially the hairbrush. But nevertheless he returned with water, some kind of soup that she had never seen, and a black and white hairbrush.
          He waited outside the room while she did her thing, which she was grateful for. When he came back in he spoke a little quieter than before. "Okay so for your questions" he looked at her and she nodded.
          "Your first answer would be the Resembole  Hospital, in Amestris." He grinned a little and continues, "As for me I am Hohenheim Elric, once a father of two kids but now sadly none" she noticed the sad tone in his voice but he continued anyways "And you are here because you were injured and this was the closest Hospital near the battlefield." He frowned a little at the last word.
          She shot him a questioning glance. But then he started speaking again "Alright now I have some questions for you" his sad tone gone replaced with that serious one from earlier.
          "Okay my first question is who are you?" He gave her the paper and she started writing 'My name is Aria Vir Nonamon, and I am a soldier.' When she handed him the paper his expression went dark, then to her surprise it was neutral again as he asked his second question "Have you ever killed anybody?" She stared for a moment as she went to take the paper back. But instead of writing she nodded.
          Hohenheim rubbed his face, and gave her another question. "How many" 'he sounded calm? Why?' Once again she didn't write she only stuck up her pointer finger and thought 'One' Aria's face told Hohenheim that she didn't want to kill but she did.
          He then desperately asked her to describe the one that she had killed, 'He looked like you just shorter and with a right arm made of metal.' As he read he started crying in his hands. When he looked up she remembered what he had said about  his sons but now none.
         As he pulled a picture of two boys standing beside one another. One boy was shorter than the other but that might have been because of his two metal limbs. His left leg and... She almost choked his right arm .This time she knew it was realization that hit her. Hohenheim looked at her and said "One more question" She almost didn't hear Hohenheim as she was crying so hard. But she looked up anyways.

          Hohenheim looked at her with a grim face as he spoke three simple yet painful words. "Was it him" he choked on the last word as he pointed to the shorter boy.
          She nodded.
