Author's Note: Gosh, my very first story. I'm not a good writer, so please don't flame me. So, obviously, this is a crossover between SINF and FMA. I was surprised that there were only three, because of the whole alchemy connection,and so I decided to write my own. FMA- a mix between the anime, Brotherhood, and manga. Definately Post- CoS, slightly AU. For SINF, it's between Sorceress and Necromancer, only because I didn't like the way Necromancer turned out (even though it was inevitable), so definately a bit of alt-story part there. Um, the title is based on the fact that the riddle Izumi gave Ed and that line in the prophecy seem really similar, as if the two alchemies still shared one basic root. So, like the two worlds having similarities, or whatnot. Um, what else... oh yeah, disclaimers.

Disclaimer: oceanlover4evr does not own FMA or Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel, nor is she trying to make money off this (as if I would actually make anything). Enough with this long, rambling author's note, and just read the actual story. and please remember to review!

All is One, and One is All.

-Izumi Curtis (Fullmetal Alchemist)

...The two that are one must become the one that is all.

"I hope Gilgamesh is okay."

"And Palamedes."

"And Shakespeare."

"Hmm?" the older man asked, only half-listening.

"We said, we hope they're okay. It's our fault their home was destroyed."

Nicholas Flamel turned around in his seat to look at the two twins, His tired, yet sharp eyes met their brilliant blue ones. He snorted. "They'll be okay. Palamedes is the Saracen Knight, a trained warrior and fearsome in combat. Gilgamesh couldn't have survived this long without some tricks up his sleeve. And Will, contrary to his bookish appearances, is a lot more dangerous than he looks. Like I said, they'll be fine. The problem now is your safety. We know San Francisco is littered with Dee's agents. They'll all be looking for you. There is practically nowhere for us to go."

"This is all your fault!" Josh snarled. "If it wasn't for you we wouldn't be fugitives from the law and monsters!"

"Josh, calm down." His twim sister rested a hand on his arm, trying to placate him. Flamel merely sighed.

"Josh, we've already been through this. You can't change who you are. You two are Gold and Silver, the twins of legend. Even if I never entered your life, even if you were never Awakened, you destiny would have caught up sooner or later. Face the facts. Even without my help, this was bound to happen." Josh just glared. Flamel sighed. 'Either way, there are precious few places we can go without agents of Dark Elders knowing. I was thinking about Germany."

The twins sat back, and blinked. Sophie was the first to speak. "Why Germany?" Flamel smiled.

"Sophie, think. Browse through the Witch's memories. Are there many Elders or immortals in Germany" Her eyes briefly turned silver, and then returned to their normal sapphire blue, and she shook her head.

"The Witch knows there are still some kobolds roaming around, but they shouldn't pose too big a threat if we just stay clear from them. There are no Elders currently living there as far as she is concerned, and as for immortals, there are none ever since Hitler moved to North Korea."

Josh frowned. "Kobolds?" he asked, the unfamiliar term feeling foreign in his mouth.

"Goblin-like creatures. Not nearly as bad as the Disir," Flamel said cheerfully. Then he turned serous. "Perenelle and I have been thinking about this, and Germany seems like a good , empty, we'll be hard to track.:

"Speaking of Perenelle, where is she?"

Flamel paused, then decide to tell them the truth. It wouldn't hurt for them to trust him a little more, after all. "She went to check the plane ticket prices. Although traveling by plane will make it easier to track us, we don't dare risk using leygates at this point, and like I said, Germany is a big country and easy to disappear in."

Josh grunted again, then spoke up. "It seems extreme, but after the stuff we've seen these past few days, I don't mind a little isolated peace and quiet, without any monsters chasing us about."

"So you two agree that we go to Germany."

"Yes." Sophie cut in, sensing the friction that always seemed to be hovering between Josh and Nicholas. "But you have to give us time. We need to tell our Aunt where we're going, and pack and stuff. We can't just dissapear on her like we did. She was worried sick about us last time."

Nicholas frowned. 'But then she'll know where you are, and the whole point of this is so we can disappear until we can find someone to further teach you the elemental magics. In addition, Dee's agents will still be looking for us, so the sooner we leave, the better."

Josh rolled his eyes and laughed bitterly. "It's called finding an excuse. Or, if you want the more familiar term, a lie. We should be fine. She'll believe us. After all, we did learn from a master." Again, Flamel frowned, but didn't say anything. He made a mental note to himself, though, to do something about Josh's hostile attitude. Though he can't be completely blamed, he thought to himself. I should've acted more trutworthy, and I definitely should never have left him out of my sight. That talk with Dee was extremely damaging. He blinked, and sighed. The twins were different from when they had first embarked on this adventure ( if you could call it that) together. They had been so meek, so afraid, yet so ignorant of the world around them, its dangers and perils, their own powers and destiny. When had that all changed? He could respect their fear, their suspicion, but he wished they wouldn't take it out on him. He sighed again, this time with a resigned air.

"Very well. We leave tomorrow."
