Ohayou gozaimasu!
Welcome to my first Fullmetal Alchemist fanfiction. I had a really hard time deciding what I wanted to write, because I had two different stories in my mind. But then I was like, fuck this, why not combine them? And this is the result. Oh and I should probably add that English is not my native language. I try my best to make as little mistakes as I can. I'm a grammar nazi so there shouldn't be too many mistakes. But if you ever stumble over a phrase that sounds weird, please please let me know, and I'll be happy to change it.
Mh.. what now. It's been a while since I wrote fanfiction. It's also been a while since I wrote something suitable for teenagers, heh. For now there aren't any warnings. Except for spoilers of course. This story takes place in the manga/brotherhood series. It doesn't follow the plot, but especially when it comes to certain characters it's important to know what this takes place in. There'll be a few OC's, including the main character. :P
Disclaimer: I don't own Fullmetal Alchemist or any of the characters, sadly. If I would then my favorite characters wouldn't end up dying in the manga/anime. The OC's are mine though.
Prologue
Not good, not good at all. What have I got myself into?
Hey, I'm a depressed & slightly suicidal teenager, no more, no less.
This wasn't supposed to happen. I'm being serious here.
I mean, all I wanted was to either die or find a reason to stay alive.
And when I made that wish, I was joking. I wasn't serious.
I never thought it would happen for real. I never thought I would..
I never thought I would feel all this.
Like, I was overwhelmed, do you get that?
I was young, stupid, and overwhelmed by the fact that I had
to take my finals, graduate, go to university and decide on what
job I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
I was sixteen. A child, a baby, innocent. And lonely.
I asked for a reason to stay alive, I asked for friends.
And what happened? I got a reason to stay alive, and friends.
Amazing friends. Friends that cared about me. I found love.
But then I lost it all over again.
Say, Truth, was this what was supposed to happen?
Did you want to show me that I'd end up alone no matter what?
Say, Truth, can't I go back?
"Do you really want to go back, child? Don't you want to go back to your world?
Your family? Take your finals, go to university and live a normal life?
Just like anyone else your age does?"
Nobody is waiting for me anyway. Please take me back.
I'm begging you here, dammit. Please give me another chance.
I can't go back now. Maybe I never will.
After all.. he just told me he loved me, didn't he?
And I love him, too. So much it hurts. So please, Truth.
"I'll grant you another wish. Go back to Amestris, be happy.
And make sure not to make the same mistake again."
Arigatou gozaimasu.
Sayonara, Truth.
Woooh. Now. What do you say? Confusing, isn't it? Ah don't worry it'll make sense soon enough. That's not the beginning of the story though. It's more like.. a hint. A person that'll meet the Truth. And not for the first or last time, lets say that, heh.
