Rickie: kia-nee!!!

Maya: kia-nee!!! Muffins!!!  We made them.

She passed her the container. Kia took it and opened it putting the muffin in her mouth " yummy. "

Winryl: maya~ rickie~

They run to their mother  " mummy!!!"

Winryl: don't you want to have a life like that?

Kia: its not possible. I don't deserve nor can I hold up to it...

Lee brings in her waist " it is. If you survive. I told you. I'll do everything in my means~ "

Kia looks earnestly into his eyes than hugs him... Squeezing him... " I hate myself... "

Lee's tears drop kissing her... The tears wet their lips... A wanting of not to leave...

Frin: ririo is kept outside the town. 

zihein: I give him credits for using his brain. At least he know is dangerous to keep ririo beside him. Even if we do save ririo, we won't get back  in time to use ririo against the kenja no ishi.

frin: we can't just leave kia here.

ed: we can kick jack's ass than save ririo.

kia: no!! Save ririo first. I am afraid jack make a call and there goes ririo.

ed: than how about the ray? You said we needed to destroy it.

kia: we can destroy it after we save ririo.

al: can we even make it?

eliza: you're not trying to distract us are you?!! Than take this upon yourself.

kia: don't be stupid. That thing can't be destroyed easily just with a touch.

eliza: you're not denying it. Are you?

Everyone stares in kia's direction waiting for an answer.

kia: no. I am going to wait. If jack uses that thing before he comes back, I promise to let him use it than deal with it together.

frin:  We will split ways than. I can't trust stupid kia. Me ,rita and zihien will go save ririo. Ed, Al, lee, you three stay with kia . Make sure she doesn't do anything stupid.

rita: I go against to this ruling. Al, zihein, frin goes to save ririo.  I am lazy to travel.

yuki: I wanna go too. I am bored.

" you can collect corpses here." zihein pats her head " stay."

yuki: mmm...

kia: bring her along. I don't want her to keep bugging about how you're not here.

zihein: fine~

frin: don't do anything stupid ok.

kia: *smiles* um. Nothing stupid.

ed: don't ignore me!!

lee: hey. You guys are late. Imagine if others took this place here first.

ed: there's nobody. Don't bullshit.

lee: I wanted it to be nobody here. What if someone was here? It would ruin the mood.

ed: hmph. Selfish.

lee looks to the red bag ed has carried over his shoulder than suddenly laughs. 

ed: what?!!!

lee: santa claus.

ed: Its not Christmas and its only drinks!!!

The other girls plus the kids climbed up the hill. " you guys sure are noisy."

ed: sensei?

izumi: they pulled me along.

lee: don't worry. They can be rebuilt again.

may: um. There won't be a problem as long as we try.

kia pov: 

 I stood in front of the gate. I threw my two hair metal pieces onto the floor. I take out my blade and take a deep breath in... Looked to the town that has been torn down by the earlier fire... this place can be rebuilt... it should be ok. It should be fine. I raise my hand... alchemy reacts and slice. The slice cuts into the floor heading for the camp. An red resistance alchemy reaction tears the camp apart. The ray...

jack: hahaha... did you think it was that easy to destroy my ray?

The voices... their screaming again... I hate this sound... A familiar scream... not the ones that cry. The kinds that screaming for revenge. Its been long since I heard a familiar scream like this. At least I won't hate it this much. Rather I am used to it, too many people want to kill me. They want so much to destroy something. They realised they gained a weapon. I wonder if this will hold off...

kia: kenja no ishi. Take it out and return it.

jack: of course not.

kia: I won't let you destroy the gate.

jack: don't worry I will repair it after I destroy it.

kia: and what? Put your control in it? What motives do you even have? You are already the President.

jack: a President who doesn't have the authority you have. I want your authority. NO... THAT IS NOT ALL. hehe... hahaha... KNOWLEDGE. WEAPONS. IMAGINE THE POSSIBILITIES. The near answer . Who needs the Truth when you have that damn ass big gate behind you.

kia: I won't let you. 

jack: we will see.

 ed: that red light....

eliza: WHAT'S GOING ON???

Ed grabbed onto lee's collar " why didn't you stop her? "

may: rita!! I thought you would be the first one to stop him!!!

Lee's face blackened " you think... I DIDN'T WANT TO?!! ITS THE ONLY WAY!! I DON'T WANT HER TO DIE. SHE DOESN'T WANT TO EITHER!!! BUT!!! ..... look at you fucking surroundings... she is trying her fucking best... " tears flowed from his eyes...

eliza: lee... gomen...

Ed lets go... he clenches his fist " that's not the way !!!! ITS NOT!! " He started running down the hill towards the town. Izumi was going to punch ed in the stomach to knock him out but ed grabs onto her wrist " don't stop me sensei."

izumi: than what can you do? Its a road she chose

He stunned " I don't know!! Something!!!" Than a blade was to at the nape of his neck " don't you fucking move. "

ed: you...

rita: don't you fucking interfere with kia. She didn't take that much courage to see your fucking face and hesitate. You... You are not going to be selfish and make her stop.

Winryl pulled onto ed's sleeve " don't go... please..." His kids tug to the ends of his pants " papa... " their tears drop " kia-nee..." 

" fuck this. " ed ran down to the city. Lee chased after " that asshole!! "

kia pov: 

 The ray fired on jack's command. Those revengeful voices heading on towards me. It goes through my first defense of negate alchemy easily. I thought so... I touch to my body... turned the seal on my back. I scream... it was painful.. everything coming out of my body. Those souls gaining freedom. Trapped in my body for a long time. Sounds of laughter for freedom.

kia: help me... its going to hit.

It was just a hope. I don't know if it will work. These souls have been noisy since the moment they were trapped in me. Demanding for freedom. Demanding for destruction of whoever did this to them. Even when I told them they already died, they just gave me one answer. 

Destruction.

Drunk on the fights of war. They have nothing left. They just want to hate the world for what brought them to their death than disappear. Revengeful screams. Just like the ones in kenja no ishi right now. That's why their familiar to me. Used to it. They only got quieter after they see me killing people. It was like some kind of substitute vent for them. They took a liking for me.

hahaha... they laughed. One last WAR !!!! They clash against the reaction of the kenja no ishi. They were going in strong. They manage to push back the kenja no ishi up to par. Come on.... I raise my hand and use back to zero. Large alchemy reaction flowed from my body and attacked the red blast. We were winning.... The kenja no ishi was being to be pushed back.

jack tried to help the kenja no ishi by blasting cannon blasts at my direction. But instead those got shot down by kenja no ishi. The souls had formed a conscious together. They want to do this alone.

ed: kia !!!!

what... ed? He stood a close distance from where I was. There was Lee too...  I raised my other hand which was free as if about to touch my precious lee... my precious family I gained... They are out of reach... My fingers blocking the image of their faces... My tears flowed so did theirs. Ed ran forward towards me.

kia: no!!!

Lee grabbed hug ed back " no!!!!"

ed: let me go !!! There has to be another way !!! 

jack: its not over !!!! 

I can hear it... the voices are getting lesser. But there are still many. " ooi. We are going to finish this in one shot. " 

WARRRRR !!! They shout as if already in victory. Idiots... I smile a little. Maybe its not that bad to have them. The kenja no ishi realised my intention ad released all it had at one go. Luckily I have this... I took out the last kenja no ishi I had in my pocket and ate it " sayonara~ " Using back to zero,  My aclehmy reaction turned red in color and completely obliterated its blast than the ray in one shot. 

No more voices... his kenja no ishi shatters... and so does my soul... 

lee pov: 

 It was over... She had used her soul as energy to destroy it. Nothing was left... I let go off ed and we walked to her side then I hugged her in my arms. Her body started do disintegrate to dust... She used too much back to zero... now its happening on her... My hands touch her face as her skin starts to flake off. Her eyes were closed... did you die peacefully...?  I screamed " kia!!!" 

Why? why do you always do things your way.... can't you just listen to me? can't you just be with me and think of me only... I looked to the gate with hate " its  all your fucking fault... YOUR FAULT!!!"

eliza: nee-chan !!!

The rest have arrived. Izumi and may gasps in horror. Rita came to her side and touched her hair " you have done well fukuchou ( assistant squad leader) " 

jack: FUCK !!!! 

I stare at him " you .... urusei... I am not in the mood... "

ed: take a step closer... asshole...

may: bastard.

third person pov:

izumi clenches her fist " I will make sure you turn to dust. How dare you."

eliza: my nee-chan... because of your stupid... selfishness...

Rita started to laugh cynically " I wonder what will happen if I manage to turn all of you into living corpses. "

jack: .... KILL ALL OF THEM.

 Suddenly a huge fire burns the whole camp and the whole army. They had to retreat due to the big fire.

jack: tsk. Damn it.

roy: kia !!!! 

riza: *eyes widened* what happened to her?!!!

I was still looking at her slowly disintegrating into dust... my eyes were on her this whole time. I just have a small hope... my kia would wake up any time soon.

It... isn't going to happen... is it?
