Alchemy, the process of deconstructing and reconstructing elements through the use of the Gate, which is the only way how alchemist can do it. There was one element that doesn't require the gate to do it, but mastering it is impossible. Of course, a wisecrack genius shrimp uncovered how to do it.
"One drop of Time Alchemist's blood," a blonde figure looked at his hands, and took a little knife, and slashes it wide open. "Hope this works," he mutters as he activates the Transmutation Circle of Time Human Transmutation.
The circle glows blue and yellow, striking the ground with a pattern. The man is excited that the Transmutation isn't rebounding, and he doesn't even need to pay a toll. The Toll, which once took away his brother and his arm and leg, isn't there. Time Alchemy doesn't require a gate, or a toll… BAM! The man looked at his hand, which is disintegrating, and his legs, which is already gone. The only thing left is his body and head. Then he fainted.
"Wake up, Mr. Al-Chem-Ist." A doughy white figure said as the man opens his eye. "You have yet attempted to bring your alchemy back via time, and that, I'm afraid, break the rules of a toll."
"What will you take from me now, Truth?" The man asked the white figure.
"You wanted warmth, love ones that had died, and your alchemy all together. That's not possible."
A scream pierce through the white field of forever, and two figures appear. "Edward? WHY, why have you come to bring us back?" The female figure inquired of him.
"Mom, is that really you?" Edward asked the female figure.
The male one sighed, "He will never ever learn," The male one said in an ancient voice, "You can't bring back what you give up, no matter what."
"But, I am so close-"Edward started, but the figures said, "We are so disappointed at you, for trying to do the impossible." That breaks Edward's soul and spirit.
"Are you done? Or you need more time?" Truth asked Edward with a cruel smile.
"I need to redo this, I am willing to give you anything-"Edward begins, but Truth cuts him off.
"More time, eh?" Truth asked, "Fine, I will give you more time, I think it will be fun if you keep your alchemy and Time Alchemy."
"So, will you give me my alchemy?" Edward asked the Truth hopefully.
"Yes, but in exchange of your arms and leg, and you will be backed in time years from now." Truth said.
Then, Truth grow two hands and an leg, and smile ever so cruelly when he said, "The backdoors that way, Mister Al-Chem-Ist, or-" Truth said, "Never mind. You don't have any limbs left! HA!"
Then Edward fainted again.
A boy was wandering through a garden when he saw a teenager without legs or arms. He walked closely to him, and asked, "Mister, are you alive?"
The teen awoke and saw the kid. He asked, "Where am I?" in a confused voice.
"AH! You are alive! My mommy knows how to do automail, so I will bring you to her. Who are you?" The boy asked curiously.
"My name is-"The teen stopped. If he is very in the past, he has to make up a false identity. "My name is Edwin Relic."
"Edwin Relic, are you from around here?"
"Where is this place," Edward- no, - Edwin asked.
"This is Amestris, 1913, Mister Edwin." The boy said, "How am I going to bring you to my mommy?" He asked.
"Dragged a wagon, and put me in there." Edwin suggested.
The boy ran off in a flash as Edward sighed at his useless body. If there is a god out there, He prayed, please let me survive. Then, a few hours later, a woman and the boy ran by with a wagon. "See mommy?" The boy said, "There is a man who is without his arms or legs."
"What happened to you?" The woman asked.
"I am in an accident, miss-"Edwin said.
"My name is Hayley," She said, "How do you get into this accident?"
"It's just an unpredictable accident," Edward said, "Nothing major. Now can you bring me automail?"
"No, Mister Edwin. I don't know how to inserted automail. I can only fix them. However, I do know an automail engineer by the name of Rockbell."
"Can you bring me to them?"
A girl was looking outside her house as two people, one on a wagon, and a little boy walked by. They stopped in front of her house, and the woman asked the girl, "Winry, is your grandmother home?"
"No, what happen? Why do you need her?" The girl asked the woman.
"There is this man," The woman said, pointing at Edward, "Without any limbs. We hoped you can attach automail on him."
"Geez, how did he lose his limbs?"
"In an accident," Edwin answered.
Pretty soon, Edwin was at a bed when Winry take some screws and wrench and place them at the table. She also brought a cup of milk, which Edwin yelled, "Don't get that foul white evil liquid near me!"
"It's just milk, Edwin. You sound like my friend Edward, but you are just taller than him." Winry said.
Edwin smirked. Apparently he did grow a foot when Al came back from the Gate of Truth. That would mean he is 25 years old. "Yeah, I guess I am like this Edward guy, so can you give me automail?" Edwin asked Winry.
"Well, your leg has a carbon reinforced automail, so I will give you three other all season automail for all of your missing limbs." Winry said, "How tall are you before the accident?"
"Six feet and one inch. That is pretty high for a guy my age."
"How old are you?"
"Twenty five, but people still called me a teen because I act like one."
Winry started to build the three extra long automail before Edwin asked, "How long will it take me to rehabilitate?"
"Well, the quickest time it took one of my patients is one year. So, unless you are planning to take less than that-"Winry begin, but was cut off when Edwin said, "One month will do it."
"Then you will be through hell."
"Then, , give me hell."
Edwin was stretching his automail hands when Winry walked by. "You know, you sort of remind me of a girl that I marry." Edwin begins. Thinking, idiot! She is that same girl!
"Well, do you love her?" Winry asked.
"Yes, and she broke the law of equivalent exchange with what she said. It seems like a very long time ago…"
"How long ago was that?"
"When I was fifteen."
"Well, you should go get something to eat, because you seem hungry."
"Hum, when I was rehabilitating, I am pretty much starving myself," Edwin said as he headed for the door. A dog perked up and barked at him. "Whoa! Easy boy, I am just walking out the house." Edwin said to the dog.
"WOOF!" The dog barked furiously at him, so Edwin just opens the door, and ran outside. He looked as he saw that he finish getting adjust to the automail, and he started to walked toward the train when he saw a family looking at a burnt down house. "Looks like we have to rebuild it again," The father of the family said.
"What have happen here," Edwin asked the family.
"It was burnt down by an accidental fire." The mother of the family answered.
"When was the fire?" Edwin asked.
"Why are you asking so many questions? It is pointless now, we just have to wait until an alchemist comes or we will just have to rebuild it." The father asked Edwin.
Edwin turned his watched several days back and said, "Do you guys need it to be fixed?" Edwin asked as he started to palm his hand on the watch, secretly activating his gate.
"Are you an alchemist?" The mother asked.
"Ma'am just watched me." Edwin answered as he claps both of his hand, and blue lightning came out. He concentrated his mind onto the object, seeing how it looks like throughout its history from it being built to now. He looked for the most minted state, and he slam the ground with both of his hands. ZZT ZAP! The house now looked as it looks in its most mint form. The family watched in shock. "Are you an alchemist?" One of the kids asked Edwin.
"No, I am a Time Alchemist, which can use time alchemy and perform normal alchemy without a gate." Edwin said, "Now, if you excuse me, do you know any good restaurant in the Central City?" Edwin asked the family.
Hey guys, you may remember me as the guy who did not finish Full metal Bodyguard. WAH! I am hurt. First of all, you guys make no comments/ reviews. Those are basically the elixir of life to writers! Second off, I decide that isn't a good fanfic to do in the first place, and I get many ideas after another. Such a pain! Now, I will include an extra story…
Truth looked at Edward. "So, Mister Al-Chem-Ist, it seems like I have pick my toll."
Edward looked at Truth weirdly, before he said, "I feel violated…"
Truth stood up, and Edward saw his underwear on Truth's body. "That is the toll, my Underwear?!"
