Disclaimer: I dont own FMA
ok so this sorta popped into my head right after I woke up from a nap. I absolutly love how it went so i've decided to write it out. Thewhole thing went through my head like a movie trailer though, but i do have everything planned out. In it, Ed and Al are twins,its nessisary to the story line. One more thing, I'm not used to writing stories like this so please dont mind any mistakes.
Another year, another day goes by. Nothing has changed.
Edward looked out the the window of the car, watching as the scenery moved by. It was rural. Completely different from the Urban streets of East City. He sighed. Risembool was definatly going to be boring, just like he thought it would be. As he looked out the window he saw a biulding slowly rise in the distance. His father, Hohenhiem, slowly stopped the car infront of at. As Edward looked at it, it looked more like a castle than anything else.
"See honey, It doesnt look so bad." Trisha said, looking back at her two boys. Alphonse had stopped what he was doing on the laptop to look at the building before going back to the laptop.
"So thats out new school, huh?" Edward muttered, as Hohenhiem started driving again. Edward watched the school move behind them, as the car drove on. He carried on watching untill Alphonse called him over to the laptop.
"What is it?" Edward asked looking over at the screen. Alphonse pointed over at the article he was reading on Wikipedia.
"Check out what Wiki has to say about our new school, not to mention this town." He said. Trisha laughed slightly at this.
"Yes, Risembool does have quite the background." She said.
"You grew up here, right mom?" Alphonse asked. Trisha nodded.
"Yup, this is my home town," She said, "Only the high school, there, has only been open for about two, three years, I think."
"Well acourding to this, the school used to be a castle to a king-"
"Obviously" Edward interupted, earning himself jab in in the gut from Alphonse.
"Anyway, as I was saying, The king supposedly led his kingdom to ruin about 400 years ago. Aparently Risembool used to be quite a rich city, but after the kings downfall, alot of the stuff went into ruin and it became what it is today."Alphonse said, his eyes scanning the screen as he spoke, "Him and the queen were the last of the royal line, but no body knows whether or not the the king and queen died or just dissapeared."
"Creeeepyyy." Edward muttered. Alphonse laughed and pointed to the screen again.
"This is even creepier," He said, "Dad the kings name was Hohenhiem as well." Hohenhiem laughed at that.
"Yes that is rather creepy." He said. Trisha laughed slightly herself before turning back to look at the twins.
"Okay now boys, turn the computor off and get ready. We're almost at our new home." She said. Alphonse shut the laptop off and Edward looked out the window seeing a white house show up infront of them as they drove up the hill. This was going to be their new home. This was the house their mother grew up in and the house that they were going to live in from now on. When they arrived there was some people sitting at the front door. One of them was a young girl who looked about the same age as the two boys, and three other people. Two were obviously her parents, and the last was more than likely her grandmother. Trisha smiled and jumped out of the car, running over to the girls mother.
"Sara, its so good to see you again!!" She exclaimed giving the women a hug.
"Same goes to you Trisha," Sara replied, "Are those your boys?" she asked looking over at Edward and Alphonse as the two of them got out of the car. Trisha looked over at them and smiled.
"Yes, Edward has the long hair, and Alphonse has the shorter." She said. The twins walked over to her, Alphonse smiling over at them. Sara smiled at the two boys.
"So how far apart are you two in age?" She asked. Edward and Alphonse laughed slightly at the question before answering at the same time.
"About 3 minutes." They said. Sara blinked in confusion and causing the two of them to laugh. They were used to people asuming that they were just brothers. They may have been twins but they werent Identical and they often got reactions such as this.
"Sara, they're Fraternal Twins." Trisha explained.
"Oh!" Sara exclaimed with a laugh, "I'm sorry, all you told me was that you had two boys." Trisha laughed.
"I'm sorry about that." Edward rolled his eyes and grabbed Alphonse hand, pulling him over to the girl sitting on the steps to the house. She smiled when they came to her.
"Hey." She said.
"Hi!" Alphonse said. Edward nodded his hello, letting his more social brother talk to her.
"Sorry about my mom, she can be like that sometimes," The girl said, "I'm Winry by the way."
"Alphonse, and Mr Silent over there is my older brother Edward." Alphonse introduced.
"Hey!" Edward snapped at his brother, hitting him playfully over the head. Alphonse laughed and pushed him slightly. Winry smiled from her position on the steps.
"Seems you two get along pretty well." She said. Edward shrugged.
"Well we were born together, so we've spent our whole lives together. Obviously we get along." He said.
"Well either way we are complete opposites." Alphonse said. Edward laughed slightly. Winry rolled her eyes and got up. As she did Hohenhiem called out to the two boys.
"Ed! Al! Come and get your stuff from the car!!" He yelled.
"Kay!!" They answered at the same time.
"Wany some help?" Winry asked. The two of them looked at each other before turning back to her.
"Sure." They answered. Winry smiled and the three of them went back to the car to grab their stuff.
"Think of it this way, you two," Hohenhiem said as they took their luggage from the car, "This way, you can each have your own room."
"We like sharing." They said. Hohenhiem rolled his eyes at the two.
"Well then you better find a room big enough for the two of you." He said. They nodded and turned to Winry who was carrying one of the lighter bags.
"Come on, lets go." Edward said said walking by her and into the house. Alphonse followed slightly behind her with Winry walking next to him. They put their stuff down just inside the front door and walked through the house to find a room that the two of them could share. Edward had to admit, the house really was quite nice, but would he really be able to stand being secluded this far out of the city. Who knows.
"Alright class, settle down." The teacher walked into classroom,all the while talking. The students quickly took their seats allowing the teacher to speak, "I'd like you all to welcome two new students to our school," She looked over to the door, "Alright you two, come on in." Edward and Alphonse walked into the classroom, Edward slightly ahead of Alphonse, stopping infront of the classroom and letting the teacher introduce the two of them
"Everyone, This is Edward and Alphonse Elric. They've just moved here from East City." She continued, "I want you to all make them feel welcome." There were some murmering amongst some of the students before a blonde haired boy spoke up.
"You two arent twins are you?" He asked. Edward and Alphonse blinked, a little surprised that someone actually figured it out.
"Yeah...why?" Edward asked, a little suspicious as to why he asked. Just as he answered the whole class broke out into chatter. So much so that the brothers couldnt understand a word that was being said.
"Oh come on guys, leave them alone!" Winry snapped standing jup and slamming her fists on the table.
"Are you kidding!?" The boy who first asked the question snapped, "They're twins! It might not be on the official records but the story is still there!"
"What's your point Russel?!" Winry snapped, "Ed and Al are nothing like the twins in that stupid rumor!"
"Winry, whats going on?" Alphonse asked.
"It doesnt matter Al," Winry said, "It's just an old rumor pertaining to the history of this school." The teacher sighed and put a hand to her head, pinching the bridge of her nose.
"These rumors go on and on, nothing makes sense anymore, so please dont listen to anything they say." She said. The two shrugged and nodded.
"Anyway," The teacher continued, looking over at the two, "Seeing as you know Winry I'll let you sit next to her, now please take your seats." Nodding once more the two brothers went and sat down in the seats near Winry. Alphonse sitting next to her and Edward on Alphonse's other side.
"I'm sorry, I should have warned you about the rumors." Winry whispered.
"Dont worry about it Winry." Alphonse whispered. Edward was about to add something onto his brothers statement when something caught his eye, just outside the classroom door. There was someone standing there in the doorway looking over at him. There eyes locked for a moment before the figure smirked and turned away.
"Wha...?" Edward muttered. Winry saw his expression and looked over at the doorway, before realization dawned on her.
"You saw him, didn't you?" She asked.
"What?" Alphonse asked. Winry sighed and opened her notebook.
"Ever since the school opened there have been sighting of three different people along the school grounds," She explained, "When gym comes along, you'll see the youngest of the three. He's always watching Mrs Curtis."
"So the one I just saw..?" Edward asked.
"He's often seen watching the different classes, but as soon as someone notices him he dissapears..." Winry muttered.
"Hasn't anyone called the police?" Alphonse asked. Winry nodded and looked over at them.
"Thats the problem, theres no evidence that there's anyone else in the school. People are saying its the ghosts of the people who used to serve in the palace...that or that they may be the creatures that the old king and queen created that led to their downfall." Winry explained.
"But what do twins have to do with it?" Edward asked. Winry stiffened and looked down.
"I'll tell you later, but for now, try and keep it a secret." She said, "I dont want you getting hurt." The two blinked in confusion before nodded and turning their attention back to the teacher. All the while, Edward couldn't shake the feeling that something was going to happen, and somehow he was involved.
Another year, another day goes by, but now something has started, and I'm going to find out what.
