Hey there, everyone! This is short, since it's just a prologue, but yeah... Anyways, I know it's not very canon (I guess?), but bear with me, please! I don't own FMA... only Hiromu Arakawa is epic enough to handle that ;)
Whiteness.
The white of pre-creation was spread over everything; so new it hurt one's eyes.
People say that, wherever you go, there is no such thing as complete silence. They are wrong.
Only a massive doorway, solemn and archaic, and the hazy, grayish outline shaped like a human break the infinite nothingness. The figure taps it's chin as if bored; waiting patiently.
Bright, golden suns snap to awareness, and a moan echoes on forever.
Two warm hands push down, contrasting to the colorless environment, making the newcomer rise. "Not this place again…"
"Again…again…place…this…agai…n…"
The white figure smiles eerily, head resting on it's hand.
"I'm glad you've returned. This place can get so lonely sometimes."
The person glares angrily. "Why do you always bring me here? I've done nothing. I'm not special. Leave me alone!"
The solid, ghostly presence is suddenly right next to them, but not a single breath touches their neck.
"I beg to differ. You are so interesting…There is no one quite like you." The being's finger lazily curls and twists the blond hair. "You're almost like one of those experiments you humans are always puffing your chests out about, I suppose."
The person throws themself backwards, pushing the shimmering hair back in disgust. "Shut up! I'm not an experiment, and you aren't real! Just leave me alone!"
The human sprints away, desperately trying to escape the nightmare; desperately searching for the smallest sign of color or life. Giggles ring through the stillness as something taps the person's shoulder, making them cry out in fear. Lungs beginning to burn with acid, limbs suddenly, agonizingly weak, they collapse to the ground. They have no choice but to relent to the unseen grips. Tiny shadow hands appear, and drag them backwards, slowly at first, but growing faster. The person made a half-hearted attempt at breaking loose, but knew it wasn't worth it. They had tried oh-so many times in the past. The Gate behind swung open, sucking them into a dark void…
So what did you guys think? I gladly accept constructive criticism, guys... All ears! If you guys think it's okay, I'll be updating again on Wednesday, along with my other story, "What Would You Do?" See ya!
