Title: Letzte Minute
Rating: M for char. Death
Genre: Tragedy, songfic
Character(s): Alfons Heidrich, mention of Ed. A bit EdxHei if you squint.
Summary: Today is the day, It’s so dark, it’s so black, one last minute. Songfic, M for character death.
Author’s Note: I really love Alfons, even if he was only in the movie. I heard this song on a video for Alfons on youtube and I really wanted to write something for it. I highly recommend listening to the song, not because of the story, but because it’s really beautiful.

Bitte gib mir noch
Eine letzte Minute
‘ne schlechte oder gute
Das wär mir jetzt egal
Please give me
One last minute
A good or bad one
That doesn’t matter to me now
“I never said I wanted to go!” he screamed at me, like it mattered. Sometimes Ed acted so childish.
“I’m not giving you a choice, Ed.”
He struggled against the seat belts, trying to break free.
Und alles, was ich mire erhofft hab
Zerstörst du ein letzter mal
Leider ist es jetzt so weit
Wir hatten eine schwere Zeit
Und ich weiβ, dir tut es wirklich Leid
Doch deine letzte Chance ist vorbei
And everything I hope for
You destroy it one last time
Unfortunately now is the time
We had a hard time
And I know you really feel sorry
But your last chance is gone
“We’re real, Edward. We’re not just part of your dreams like you thought. I care and I make mistakes. I may not live much longer but I’ll still be here. Just don’t forget me...”
I took his flesh hand in mine. I closed my eyes and focused only on the sensation of his warm skin against mine.
The hardest thing I ever did was let go.
Nimm meine Hand ein letzte mal
Eine letzte minute
‘ne schlechte oder gute
Das wär mir jetzt egal
Sprich nur mit mir ein letztes mal
Letztes mal
Take my hand one last time
One last minute
A good or bad one
That doesn’t matter to me now
Only speak to me one last time
Last time
I heard him cursing my name as I ran towards the switchboard. I couldn’t look at him. Right as the engines were ready, I lowered the glass over the cockpit.
“ALFONS!”
I watched as the rocket roared towards the transmutation circle. The breeze whipped my hair around my face.
There was pain. But I barely felt it.
I had a vague awareness of my body hitting the floor. I could feel the breeze pushing by my nose and mouth, but my lungs were empty.
My eyes hazed over, but if you asked, I would tell you that I could still see his face.
And feel his hand in mine.
Nicht mal ein letzter Sonnenstrahl
Die Welt mit einem Schlag total kahl
Nur die Erinnerung ist noch da
Doch nicht mal sie macht mich noch stark
Ein leerer Platz ist nun besetzt
Wie eichtig er war, merk ich jetzt
Ein Loch in meine Welt gerissen
Ich kann dir sagen: Mir geht’s beschissen
Not even one last sun beam
The world is suddenly stark
Only the memory is still there
But not even the memory makes me feel strong
An empty place is occupied now
How important it was, I only realize now
A hole torn into my world
I can tell you: I feel bad
Just don’t forget me…
Heute ist der Tag
Er ist so dunkel
Ist so Schwarz
Letzte minute
Ein letzte mal
Today is the day
It’s so dark
It’s so black
Last minute
One last time

On a side note, I need some help coming up with a new story, so I’m taking requests (absolutely anything FMA related) ^_^ Have a great day, and remember, humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. Peace.
