Cold Flame

Ross, accused of Hughes' assassination, is placed under military police custody and interrogated by Douglas. After reading a newspaper article about Ross's detention, Barry the Chopper leaves the safe house and launches a solo raid on the jail. Barry releases Ling from jail as well after Ling promises to help both Barry and Ross. Barry tells Ross that she needs to leave Central immediately, or risk being killed. Edward and Alphonse run into the trio, and Barry holds the brothers off to allow Ross time to get away. Ross then runs into Mustang, who seemingly kills her in a massive explosion. Edward accosts Mustang after seeing Ross' charred body, while Mustang coldly reminds Edward of his place as a soldier of the state military. Armstrong later shows up and declares that Edward should return to Resembool to apparently have his automail arm fixed, dragging the confused Edward away.
