Ed's POV
Mustang, his team and I all headed towards the spot we had to be in. I grumbled and scratched my shoulder. "How long is this gonna take?" I muttered. I was irritable and I was not in a good mood. Mustang walked towards me.

"Fullmetal, are you alright?" He questioned. I nodded.

"Yeah. I'm fine." I lied.

"Good. I have one order for you. Don't die." Mustang demanded.

"Yeah, yeah. I got it." I grumbled. He nodded and walked back towards the others. I sighed and leaned against the tree. Suddenly, Havoc screamed.

"Cheif! We have a problem!" He yelled, as guns went off. Mustang ran over towards him.

"What is it?!" He replied.

"I think the enemy knows we're here!" He exclaimed. My eyes darted to look around me. I clapped my hands together and formed my blade. Someone charged forward at me.

"Fullmetal! Be careful!" Mustang yelled, running towards me. Mustang and I were standing back to back, guarding one another. Blood String charged at us with strings of crimson blood. They were red and long. A line of string was sent my way, and made a small cut on my arm. I gritted my teeth and charged after him.

"Fullmetal! Stop!" Mustang yelled. I was so angry and pissed off that I almost barely heard him. I didn't stop though. Blood String however, did. He smirked evily and I yelped as I jumped over him. He  had transmutation circles drawn on his shoulders. He clapped his hands together and string went through some parts of my body. It was like their was a storm of strings.

I had tiny little cuts, and then a huge one on the side of my stomach. The strings stuck there for a minute, leaving me mid jump. They pulled away and I was sent falling towards the ground. I suddenly, caught consciousness and I grabbed a branch.

Roy's POV
Fuery let out a small cry for help as the enemy was aiming for him. At that same time, Fullmetal was also in danger. 'Fullmetal can handle himself. Fuery...not so much.' I thought. I decided to run towards Fuery.

Ed's POV
As I was hanging onto the branch, I started to slip. "GAH! STUPID BRANCH!" I yelled. I saw Mustang running over to Fuery and felt a bit of sadness.

'Thats right. Mustang has a goal. And he needs help to reach that goal. Fuery's apart of that plan. I'm not.' I thought. I fell onto the ground, and groaned in pain. The Blood String Alchemist walked towards me.

"This is the end for you. Fullmetal Alchemist." He said.

'Sorry Al. Looks like I won't be coming home. Have a good life. And sorry Mustang. Looks like I didn't follow your orders again.'
