            “It’s not like I meant for this to happen!” For once, Edward Elric’s tone was more plaintive than petulant. “They didn’t give us a choice! They just kept coming!”

            “It’s true, Colonel.” Al’s voice was quiet, his armor slumped in dismay.

            Colonel Mustang heaved a sigh and surveyed the scene again. Paper was still fluttering down from the rafters. The floor was a minefield of transmuted concrete. And, some sort of glue was coating the walls, nearly entombing the attackers.

            Mustang looked back at the stricken Fullmetal.

            At least the brat held something sacred.

            No surprise it was a library.
