Chapter 1: Prologue
Disclaimer: I don't own Fullmetal Alchemist!
A/N: The good part about this is I am not alone writing this! Starisia the Shadow Demon is doing one similar to this one but for…. D. Gray-Man. (Read it. It's funny… Poor Allen so naive) Ah… On with the story!
It was a beautiful day for Central High (flower) the birds were chirping, the day was sunny, but one class believed that the world was against them. Why? You ask, the culture festival was nearing and all the classes had their theme… all but that one class. Every student stressed except for one that was lightly snoring away the day. The student was small; he could be mistaken for a middle scholar. He had golden-blond hair tied in a braid and amber eyes hidden behind his lids. The class president was trying to calm the class that was divided in two. Half of the class (mostly boys) say a café (they wouldn't have to work), the other half (mostly girls) say a play knowing what play they wanted to do.
"Enough!" said a woman with blond hair and brown eyes, the class immediately quieted after hearing her gun click. "Thank you," said the boy who had blond hair that was sided to the right and had blue eyes. "Today will be the last day to vote. If it's a tie again I will pick." The president said as he passed out a piece of paper. After two minutes all the papers were collected. "The one we're doing is a play, it won by one vote." Said the president noticing that there was one vote less, looking around he noticed the boy who was sleeping, and his eye twitched making the vice ask "What's the matter Russell?" "Look over there." Russell signaled to the back corner where the door was to the right the boy slept soundly on his desk. The girl was amused. "Ed's a sleep again." She stated. "Every day Riza, he sleeps through all classes every single day and still gets away with a slap on the hand." Russell said to Riza. "To bad that no one in this school is as smart he." Riza said. "His brother Alphonse is but he lacks in an area." Russell said.
"Russell!" one girl called as she noticed both the president and vice president looking at Ed. The girl had blond hair and blue eyes her ears were pierced by many earrings.
"Yes Winry?" Russell asked.
"Could we do Cinderella for the play?" she asked.
No way! That is girly!" said a boy with sandy blond hair and gray eyes.
"What was that Alphonse?" she asked sweetly with a wrench -that can out have nowhere- in her hands. Every student shuddered remembering what had happened to Ed wit that same wrench.
"Nothing!" Alphonse quickly responded.
"Thought so, anymore objections?" Winry asked with a have-any-objections-and-I-will-use-this-wrench smile. Silence was all she got. "Good." She said.
Russell's mouth twitched before saying "All right so it's Cinderella." He said finalizing the idea with a tired sight. "Now for the characters." He groaned knowing it will take the whole day –what's left of it- And it would. "We will first decide on-" *snore* Russell was interrupted by the snoring Ed. "We will-" *snore* Russell was interrupted again before going on "be deciding who will play who including the mice within the play." He said as his annoyance made him say that. 'Ed will make a perfect mouse' Russell maliciously thought not noticing the brawl of the main character between the girls as his imagination took him away. The vice had 'helped' everyone pick their character all but the two main characters were chosen.

Riza- Briber is best described/ Producer

Prince-
".. We are missing the two important characters." Russell said. "We can make a certain blond that is a sleep Cinderella." a girl who had brown hair and eyes said.
"Edward can pass as a girl." Said Russell as everyone agreed with the decision so willingly. The said blond had no say for he was a sleep and no one defended the poor blond. (Suspicious on the girl's part) "And I can be the prince I guess." He continued.
"NO!" Every girl screamed, "It must be Roy-san!" with dreamy eyes they said.
"He's not a student in this class." Russell pointed out knowing he would be forced to ask the raven hair for a favor.
"We all want Roy-san to be the prince and we fought for the princess role so instead of the girls having to be Cinderella we though Ed should be the princess instead." Said the same girl as all the rest nodded their head.
"Yes, that's why it must be him." The other girls said. –Ed still had no say in this-
Russell sighed and said "Fine." But was thinking 'Ed won't like this…'
