Me: Hello! I'm back! And the cast of fma is with me! And I even made Al human! He looks like he does in Liore during Conquer of Shamballa.

Fma cast: -walks in- Hello!

Ed: Hey where's Winry?

Me: yeah… I don't like Winry. So she's not in this story. I also hate Ed x Winry and Winry x anyone. The only pairing I like is Al x Mei Chang

Al: but Kay? Mei isn't in this story.

Me: maybe later. Now everyone shut up while I introduce my OC. This is Rena Elric. She is Ed and Al's sister. Her left arm is automail. She has brown hair that's braided like Katniss's hair in the Hunger Games. She also saw the truth so she can perform alchemy without a circle. She's often stubborn but is nice. She wears a black t shirt and jeans as well as combat boots. She also wears a green version of Ed's coat. Oh yeah! And has gold eyes. She's pretty and easy to get a long with until you piss her off!

Rena: -walks in- Hey guys! ^.^

Everyone: Hello!

Dark: -walks over to Rena and grabs her arm- I'm a good phantom thief. I've come to steal your heart.

Rena: -kicks Dark in the happy place- PERVERT!

Ed: who was that?

Me: that is Dark mousy who was in my DN Angel fanfiction.

Dark: -runs away screaming-

Everyone: 0.o

Me: ok? Anyway this is my best friend Brook and she'll be helping me write my story and will be in it. She has long blue hair, purple eyes and gets pissed easily, hates being called short, and loves Ed. She wears a pink tank top, blue jeans, and flats.

Brook: -walks in- Hi!

Everyone: -wth faces- 0.o

Ed: 0.0 what's with her personality?

Me: long story short. She loves you.

Al: -puts hand on Ed's shoulder- oh well lets just have fun and write this story!

Me: Ok well this is how the story will go. You people know Pride!ed? Here he is. But I'm going to call him Pride. Here he is! :3

Pride: …

Me: He's not that excited to be here. -_- but this story is going to be, Pride x OC (Rena) and Ed x Brook. So the two stories will be taking turns.

Al: Ed and Brook will be the first chapter and Pride and Rena the second. And then they'll take turns!

Ed: I know that's confusing so… DEAL WITH IT!

Al: Brother… Don't scare them… let's just start now.

A blue haired girl walked through a big city known as Central. She was wearing a black T-shirt and yellow skirt and also with silver flats. Her light purple eyes were covered up by dark sunglasses. A voice called from behind, "Hi Brook!" Brook turned around and yelled hi back. As she was walking backwards, she bumped into someone. She turned back around and bowed her head. "Sorry! Oh. Ed… " Brook blushed as she realized who it was.

He smiled sweetly at her, which made her blush even more. "Don't worry about it. But watch out next time." Brook's face was as red as a tomato now. She was surprised Ed hadn't noticed. Had he? All she could do was hope he hadn't.

Despite her shyness she asked, "Hey do you want to come

over later? –I mean… your sister wanted to know…" Ed looked at her with regret.

"Sorry Brook. But I have things to do at Central Headquarters," he said to her and started walking again. "But maybe I can try to get everything done early and be home earlier.." She should have known he had to go to military headquarters. He was carrying a stack of paperwork and he was also in his military uniform. How stupid was she? Well, at least she'd see him tonight.

After a few minutes, she was outside of the city and in front of a house. It wasn't very big, even though it was two stories. It had five small rooms. One for Rena, another for Brook, two of the others for Ed and Al, and a guest bedroom. It also had a kitchen, dining room, and living room. But she kept on forgetting that Ed made the house bigger by adding a library for his work. There may be four people living there, but Rena did most of the work. Ed and Al were at Headquarters most of the time and Brook usually went to town for no reason. Well, really, it was more like three people lived there. The house looked almost exactly like Ed and Al's when they were younger. So, Ed liked to lie when he didn't come home for a few days. He would always say, "Sorry. I had too much work to get finished and I didn't want to bother anyone while they're sleeping." Brook knew he had been lying, because he had once been gone for two whole weeks during his mom's birthday. And when she'd gone to check on him, she'd found him crying in a dorm he and Al owned at the military base. Luckily, he hadn't noticed her, so she left without him knowing. But, she felt guilty that she hadn't been there for him.

Brook walked into the house to find Rena sitting on her head, on the couch, watching basketball. Brook slammed the door on purpose, making Rena fall her face. Rena stood up and furiously yelled, "Hey what the heck was that for!"

She was laughing, so Brook knew she wasn't angry. She smirked and said, "I couldn't help it. You looked so peaceful sitting on your head like that!" She walked into her room and heard Rena mutter, "See if you get any dinner without poison…"

Then she heard Rena say louder, "Do you know if Ed will come home tonight?!" Brook shouted back that she talked to him and he said he would try. She heard Rena's voice again but from the doorway. "For my opinion, he won't. Our mom's birthday is tomorrow. That might cause too much distress for him. I still wonder why her death affected him more than me and Al."

Brook just shrugged and Rena walked back to the living room to watch the basketball game.

A few hours later Rena and Brook heard the sound of a door opening. They turned around from the couch and saw Al walk in with Ed behind him. But Ed was looking at the ground with his hair covering his eyes. Brook looked at him with silent concern as he sat at the table. He was still hiding his face. Brook took her place next to him and Al on the other side. Rena brought in at least four trays of food at once and set them in the middle of the table, and sat down next to Brook saying, "It's serve yourself because I'm not gonna serve you this time." She smiled signaling that it was a joke, and they all laughed. When Rena noticed that Ed was just staring at the table, she said again, "Well I could serve half-pint over there some milk!"

Ed didn't respond so they just got a few slices of pizza and ate silently. Brook noticed that Ed didn't make a move to grab any food. She said sternly, "You have to eat this time, Ed. Don't think that it went unnoticed that you haven't eaten in a week." She didn't get an answer. After a few minutes of glaring, Ed muttered, "I'm not hungry, so just leave me alone." Brook was surprised by his upset yet angry tone. But, she also caught the way his voice cracked at the end of his sentence.

Then, he stood up and said, "I still have work to do. I'm probably already in trouble that I left."

Al looked confused as he said, "But Ed, you finished everything. I know because we're working on the same thing together."

Ed didn't answer. He went to the door and walked out. Rena and Brook looked at Al questioningly. Al still stared at the door and said, "He's had a hard day. General Mustang knew about our mom's birthday and brought up the topic. Then, when Ed started to cry, General yelled at him for being so soft."

They all looked at the door sadly, but soon finished the pizza. Brook promised herself that she would go visit him in the morning.

Me: Yes! It took me about 2 months but the first chapter is done.

Ed: …

Al: He doesn't like how you inserted you-know-who in the story

Brook: why did you even mention her? It's rude to Ed!

Me: Because I wanted to. It would make more sense in the story.

Brook: I'm going to kick you're a**… -_-

Al: It does make more sense

Me: FINALLY SOMEONE AGREES WITH ME!

Brook: Okay it does, but it's still mean

Me: :p
