He stared down from his spot in the office, at the courtyard below. He couldn't believe what he'd just seen. They, in front of all that knew him, executed a man that was well� Not him. That man had done nothing; he was as innocent as Kiyoshi, someone who apparently was in the wrong place at the wrong time. He was shocked and thoroughly disgusted at this, though at the same time curious as to why it hadn't been him down there.
He watched as the Colonel turned his head some looking quite grim, Ed was dancing between attacking the men that had done the executing and consoling his brother and Kaen. At his thoughts of Kaen, he looked to the small woman, who now clung to Ed. She had her face buried in his jacket. She shouldn't have been there to see that� He shook his head sadly; hopefully she'd get over it quickly.
What really got him was Al. Though he had no way to see any emotional changes on the armored boy's face, he could imagine what he was thinking. His heart went out to him, the boy he truly loved with all his heart. He'd get out of here� maybe not now, but he would. Then he'd find Al and make it up to him. He'd do anything after seeing him go through this. Kiyoshi brought his hand to the window, his lips mouthing Al's name. He wanted to hug him and show him that it was all okay.
None of them should have had to see that. He gulped some, as thoughts entered his head. He was dead to them, but alive. It hurt but yet it was assuring. He, Kiyoshi Mouriarti, was alive to go back to them at some point. All he had to do was escape the twisted new Furher's clutches.
He would have used his alchemy to signal them, but to his knowledge, the room was sealed. Not sealed like a jar, but sealed with other alchemy just so that he couldn't use his own. His hand slipped down the glass before he brought it back up to pound on it.
"Al! Colonel Mustang! Ed! Kaen! Anyone!!" he called, hoping that by any higher power that one of them might look up.
He continued to beat upon the glass, his fist getting sore from the force he used. Kiyoshi would switch from using one fist to using them both.
"Please!" he begged them, "Please! One of you glance up!"
For a split second, Kiyoshi's heart leapt for joy. Mustang had looked about, even more worth celebrating; he had looked toward the window!
"Colonel!!!" he called, moving closer to the glass with both his fists mashed against the pane.
Kiyoshi's joy was quickly crushed, as Roy moved on. He was ushering the others out of the courtyard.
"No!" he howled, pressing against the glass, he was out of ideas and options.
He could only watch as they disappeared from sight, his hope vanishing with them. He stood there a few moments, before he turned and let himself slide down the window to a seat on the floor. They were gone� Surely the Colonel had heard something! He sat there, both infuriated and depressed. He could only hope that the Colonel would want to investigate or that he got another chance to try and contact them.
Yeah... Plotted this and got this typed up. I'm soooo proud of it. Squeeeh! *hugs it* It's something I'm gonna keep until i come back later and decide it's crap. Mrawhahaha! I'm still not giving out all my ebil plans sis!!! >3
