Hi people who hopefully will be reading this story!

This is my first ever Fanfic and i always loved the idea of the Chimeras in FMA so i decided to try my hand at a fanfiction of one as the main character. updates are whenever i can think of a new chapter and i will try my hardest to not give up on this story, i hate it when people do that.

No pairing yet but there might be later on in the story.

It hurts, everything hurts. What did I ever do to them? Why are they doing these things to me and the others here?

"Prisoner 242 was another failure sir" I heard a scientist whisper just outside the room. It was dark and musty in the room. Endless cages filled with chimeras of all sizes and animals stared back at me as the snarls, whimpers and screams filled the night. Was it night? I couldn't tell anymore; I had been stuck down in this hellhole of a lab for too long, most of my life actually.

"Where are we going mister?" a young girl of about eight asked the man leading here away from the house. She has dark brown hair that went all the way down to her mid back in an unruly rat's nest; her big brown eyes looked trustingly at the man whose hand she was clinging to.

"You're coming to work with me today Fern." Her eyes lit up as they walked down the sidewalks of Central. When she was a baby, her parent had abandoned her on the steps of an orphanage and run away. She grew up fighting to stay alive and hoping to find a home someday. That day finally came when she was six, a tall man with brown spiky hair and thick square glasses came and adopted her. He had a sharp face with a little bit of a stubble starting to show on his chin.

"Hey kid what's your name?" he asked after he had signed the adoption papers and was driving back to my new home.

"F-f-Fern…" the little girl said, scared for the first time about what this new life would bring.

"My name is Dr. Knox kiddo." The little girl's fists tightened at the word "kiddo" but took no notice to her reaction. "Not a little kid mister" she grumbled.

The next few months went by with no trouble and the little girl even began to trust the old man. Every night he would come home from work with a tired look on his face and covered in sweat. The little girl learned quickly to tuck herself into bed but that didn't stop the Doc from coming to check on her every single night. When she got a bit older she began to ask if she could come to work with the old man. Every time she asked he always said no.

"But I'm a big girl now! I can help you at your work!" she protested as he shot down her request once again. She didn't even know where he worked because he refused to tell her. Finally, after asking incessantly for one week straight, he came home one night with a haunted look in his eye; when she asked him, he turned to her with a pained smile and said "yeah kiddo, of course you can."

As they turned a corner the little girl saw a huge building in front of her. It was an enormous building of white bricks, with two soldiers guarding the entrance. As the old man showed his credentials to get into the building one of the guards asked him "is that your daughter sir? She's a beauty!" he said.

"Not after today she won't be…." He murmured to the wind.
