This idea just came to me, amazingly while we, my sister and me, were listening to either Kerosene by Miranda Lambert, or Girl Next Door by Saving Jane, and I don't remember which. But I'm sorry; I just had to type this. Like it or no. Don't mind off character ness, I've read the Manga, but haven't seen much of Anime, I've basically only seen 9-17(with much thanks to A friend of mine for lending these to me.) and 27-28, which came with the second video game.

Anyway, to help explain people who have read Philip Pullman's Golden Compass Trilogy will probably understand this a bit better but here goes with my explanation.

Oh, and I don't own anything to do with FMA.(though I think I can claim Ellie, I'm not sure.)

(Written By Al. Prologue)

Brother and I spent several years trying to figure out human transmutation to get our bodies back. When we finally got the Philosopher's Stone, brother immediately wanted to get my body back. He wouldn't settle down or really even sit still until he tried. I couldn't do much but agree.

Well, the transmutation was both a success and a failure. It was a success because I got my body back, and Brother didn't lose any more limbs…but we did pay a price. The Philosopher's Stone vanished, we never saw it again, but something else happened.

Equivalent Exchange says that to gain something, we have to give something up. We gave the philosopher's stone for my body. But Brother paid a price too.

I have a theory as to what happened.

I've managed to figure out everyone has male and female temperaments, we just tend to show one or the other. Part, I think, of what happened is brother's soul was split into these two parts. 'Male' and 'Female'. The 'Male' half, that is, most of brother, stayed where it should. But part of him, the female part, was separated.

So what price did Brother pay for getting my body back? Well, this is where Ellie comes in. Who's Ellie? Ellie is both my sister and my brother. Because, she says she knows everything brother did, but without his memories, memories, she says are the mind, and all she got was part of his soul, which makes her brother as well.

So, The Philosopher's Stone got not only my body back, but created another. I don't mind so much, but Brother's worried. He doesn't know how good it is for a person to live split apart. But he doesn't know what to do with Ellie. She's his responsibility. So far nothing has happened.

I know, it's short. But Chapter One will be longer. Like I said I had the idea and wanted to type it. Everyone has the Philosopher's stone as being too weak, but what if it worked a little too well? I'm making this up as I go, so there's not much of a Storyline yet. Still, I wanted to get the idea down before I forgot it. Well, R&R if you want too, Please, Constructive Criticism is allowed.
