And I see you, until I wake from my shallow sleep~~
USO - SID (Alphonse Elric, NEWS, mentions of Edward Elric)
Author’s notes: Can’t do a fujoshi with this song, no matter how much I try. I’m into FMA Brotherhood lately so I’m fangirling over Edward and Alphonse Elric’s brotherly love. And…wahaha. Experimented a little bit with this..just read and tell me what you think. XDD
Al saw himself standing in front of the Door. The long, unruly hair, the malnourished state of his body with his bones showing, the dark circles under his eyes. If Al didn’t know better, he’d have mistaken this person for somebody else.
“Why did you let me become like this?” the Alphonse he saw right now asked him. “Why did you let Oniisan persuade you to do a human transmutation?” Al tried to open his mouth, ready to provide answers to his question. But those answers vanished in thin air.
“Why can’t you go back here to take me back?” the Alphonse pressed on. Al only lowered his head. A solitary tear rolled down his translucent cheek.
“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry.” Al’s jaw quivered.
“The dead can never go back.” The Alphonse’s voice rose, almost near to a scream. “You knew it and yet you still committed a sin. You transmuted Mother. YOU TRANSMUTED MOTHER.”
Al’s knees buckled. He hit the floor, his tears now flowing freely. He knew that he and Edward had been fools. Fools to had even attempted human transmutation. They paid the price and he had enough already.
He tried to block his ears as his person in front him continued to slander him with accusations. He wanted to go back to his body so badly. He wanted to scream at himself for not understanding completely. His knees slumped to the floor. He cried and cried as if it was the only thing that he could do. He wished that the Door would open again, swallow them both, never to return in Amestris and be with Edward, Winry, Pinako-baachan, Den and the others.
He wished, and wished, and wished until…….he felt the earth shaking. It must be earthquake but he knew it couldn’t be possible in the realm of Truth. The shaking turned even worse.
“Al! Al! Where are you Al?” Al knew it was Edward calling him but it seemed as if he was calling from a distance. Darkness seemed to seep everywhere. “Al! Al! AL! AL!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“WHAT THE FUCK, WHO IS AL?”
Koyama Keiichiro’s eyes flew open. Nishikido Ryo was hovering above him, a sneer on his face. Shige was beside him, giving him a patronizing look. Tegoshi and Massu exchanged curious glances. And Yamashita winked at him.
“We are due for call time any minute now and yet you even dare to sleep at this precarious moment!” Ryo-chan accused him. Koyama gave him a sleepy, weak smile.
“I’m sorry, Shouldn’t have read Full Metal Alchemist to sleep.” Koyama said, a sheepish grin beginning to form at the corner of lips. Then his eyes widened.
“WAIT, I DREAMT I WAS ALPHONSE ELRIC!”
Birds chirping in the background. Ryo swore that his hand made a slow-mo connection to his face. TegoMass snickered. Yamashita laughed good-naturedly. Shige heaved an exaggerated sigh. Miraculously, their manager called to gather ‘em round before their live tv show appearance. Unfortunately for Shige, he was the one bombarded with the sordid details by Koyama.
