I know you like to play with fire, but somebody's going to get burned.
You should have warned me earlier.
Somebody get injured?
One of my men. He was paralyzed, from the waist down.
All S1
S1 E15Unfinished Business
Jeez... Ya know, I thought I'd retire because of a woman, but not like this.
You're an idiot! It's bad enough you believed her, but then you gave up?!
Please, forgive me, Colonel.
You've gotta stay strong. Don't you EVER give up on living. I need to know you can keep your cool no matter what happens.
Yes, sir.
I'm gonna continue to rely on you to watch my back. Don't let me down.
You oughta think about taking your own advice, Colonel. Since you were the one who abandoned his post.
Hey! SHUT UP, HAVOC! [his injury plays up as a result of him yelling] AGH! Ugghh… And what the hell, why are we even in the same room? At my rank I should have my own room, with a hot nurse.
Try to understand sir; it was easier to protect you both in the same room.
Which reminds me: Why haven’t they tried to kill us yet?
[Cut to the Homunculi]
What’s wrong with you? How could you let that bastard go after what he did? You should have yanked his spine out of his mouth!
Lust… He killed Lust…
It’s not too late to kill him! So get to it!
We can use Mustang, he’s useless if we kill him however.
Use him? Hold on, you mean the portal?
You don’t need to worry about it. And forget Mustang. Father wants me to handle it.
What if I’ve started to rot?
EWEdward and Winry
Huh?
I doubt my body’s getting any nutrients, or any sleep either. So even if we get it back from over there…! [with face covered] Brother…! Winry!
EWEdward and Winry
AHHHHHH!
Uh! Is he right Ed?
Now, this is just a hypothesis, but I was thinking about the transmutation we did, and trying to retrace our process. Remember how we mixed our blood, to create a blueprint for mom’s soul?
Yeah…
Well, right after that we passed through the portal, where we were both deconstructed. It’s a slim chance, but I think possible, our spirits got tangled up in the process.
What are you saying…?
I’m trying to explain that our bodies may be connected some how, even though I’m here, and your body is over there. See? That might actually explain why I’m so s-… Sho-… Short!
He admitted it!
He’s starting to face reality!
So, you think you’ve been supplying all the nutrients for Al’s body too? That seems a little far fetched.
Well, what’s your explanation?
You don’t grow because you refuse to drink your milk.
Don’t start with that again…
Well, it’s true.
It seems like brother is always sleeping. I wonder if his body could be resting for mine as well.
-Till you start drinking it. You have to!
It’s not going to happen! No!
Fine stay a runt!
I’m not a runt!
I hope so at least.
I could make you!
Just try!
So you're saying that Scar killed Winry's parents?
I don't know for certain but that's the way it looks.
Poor Winry... Brother...! You weren't planning on telling her, were you?
Of course not, Al. I couldn't stand to be the one to make her cry again.
Neither could I.
Is this... For room service? YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT YOU OWE ME!
WILL YOU GUYS SHUT UP?! D'ya know how early I have to wake up tomorrow?!
Oh! Right, I forgot! You're catching the early train to Rush Val- [has a mental image of Scar destroying his arm] Uhh. Y'know what? You should cancel that. Why don't you stick around and relax?
Huh?!
I mean it's just that... Y'know... Well... There's... always the chance my arm could get broken... [small voice] or even... destroyed...
ARE YOU PLANNING ON DESTROYING IT?! [Holds a bloody wrench after using it response to Ed's reason]
I've got your soul, brother! [Al grasps Ed's soul as he lies bleeding on the floor.]
I can't believe you. Just promise you won't do anything too dangerous.
Just let me get on with my life. I beg you.
Alright. You're cut loose. I'll leave you behind so you can catch up. I've gotta keep moving... but I'll see you at the top.
He doesn't give up... He didn't even think about turning his back on me... And I had given up on living. It's not in him to abandon others... He refuses to.
He's a fool. He's not gonna make it to the top... This country'll chew him up if keeps on acting this soft.
Well, I don't know about that... This country needs a fool like that man.
So, what’s with the showboat? Do you want him to find you?
Yeah, that’s exactly what I want. I'm going to fight him, and you can't stop me.
Have you lost your mind?! Did you forget the way he tore you apart in East City?
Ooh! Sounds like the Colonel’s scared of big, bad Scar! I’m not surprised considering how useless you were against him!
That wasn't my fault! It was raining that day!
Was it raining when you got beat up and sent to the hospital?! Ha! You’re still useless!
Shut your mouth, Fullme-!
So you're the ruler of this land. The king exists for his people. Without his people, there is no king! King Bradley, you're not a true king! Not now or ever!
There's no such thing as a true king!
I admit it, Alchemists have made mistakes. But that doesn't mean we will acknowledge what you are doing. Does being an servant of God justify taking the lives of doctors who devote themselves to the people? Do you remember a pair of married Amestrian doctors named Rockbell?
Scar! You're so self righteous but do you remember two Amestrian doctors named Rockbell?
Wait, Ed! Don't!
THOSE DOCTORS SAVED YOUR LIFE! and you killed them!
BROTHER!
[Ed realizes too late that Winry is in earshot and has heard everything]
What? What do you mean Ed? This man... he's the one... who killed my parents? And what's worse... they helped save you... and you killed them..? You killed... my parents? What did they ever do to you? They were doctors... they didn't deserve to die. Give them back! GIVE ME BACK MY MOM AND DAD, YOU MONSTER!
This is the doctors' daughter? You have the right, shooting me would be justified. Just know, the moment you pull that trigger, there's no going back, you will be my enemy!
SCAR!
IF YOU THINK I'LL LET YOU HURT ONE HAIR ON HER HEAD-!
You'll kill me?? That would be fine with me, boy. Until one of us dies, this chain of hatred will continue. BUT REMEMBER THIS! IT WAS THE AMESTRIANS WHO FIRST PULLED THE TRIGGER IN THE WAR! IT WAS YOUR PEOPLE!
[After the fight]
[crying] But that man. You said that he was the one who killed my mom and dad. He tried to kill you and Al too, Ed, but I couldn't, why not?
Remember in Rush Valley you delivery that baby you save two lives, and you gave me an arm, and a leg, to replace the one I lost, it's your hands, they weren't meant to kill, they're meant to give life. That's why.
What happened to me?...
What's wrong?
I have no feeling to my arm...? My lord... I'm useless to you now.
What are you talking about?
You cannot burden yourself with me... If you do, they'll only get you too... A king is no king without his people, but a people without their king would be lost as well. You can't do that to them... My lord, think of our clan... You must live for their sake.
I won't leave you!
Sometimes someone must be left behind. For the greater good.
Lan Fan! What are you planning? No! Don't do it!
There's nothing inside that armor. You're hollow aren't you? Alchemy trapped you in that metal prison and yet you still have faith in it?
True, there are plenty of things about this body that are inconvenient... but it's nothing I can't live with... I don't need anyone's pity... least of all from you. My brother used alchemy to save my life... To regret the form I have now would mean not only rejecting alchemy but also turning my back on him... I believe in my brother, and I believe in alchemy. I will not lose faith... I want to believe!
