When I was little. 10 years of age to be exact, me, my two older brothers and my oldest sister all did human transmutation to bring our mother Trisha back. but it failed. We had to give something to get something, the laws of alchemy, Equivalent Exchange.

"Water 35 l., Carbon 20 kg ., Ammonia 4 l., Lime 1.5 kg., Phosphorus 800 g., Salt 250 g., Saltpeter 100 g., Sulfur 80 g., Fluorine 7.5 g., Iron 5 g., Silicon 3 g. and trace amounts of 15 other elements." Edward said as he closed his Alchemy book. "Uh Brother..." Julia said."Are you sure we should do this? I'm kind of scared without sissy." "We need to bring mom back anyway we can! We got all the ingredients, Alice would just stop us if she was here." Edward said. "But this is risky brother...we could get hurt if we are not careful." Alphonse said.

"What are you all doing?" Alice said annoyed yet still half asleep. "AHHHHHHHHH!" Julia, Edward and Alphonse screamed. "So...you're awake now." Edward said a little annoyed. "Well I could here you all talking and it woke me up." Alice said rubbing her eyes. "Oh..." Ed sighed. "I don't approve of this you know!" Alice said raising her voice.

"Well I don't care what you say! I'm doing it!" Edward said raising his voice too. "Fine, do whatever you want. Just don't drag me into this and if you get hurt don't come crying to me" Alice said half-hearted as she began to walk away from the door. "You just walk away like that? Not helping us...not concerned at all? How cruel sister! I guess...I GUESS YOU DIDN'T LOVE MOM THE WAY I DID! THE WAY WE DID!" Ed said shouting. Alice stood ther for a moment faced away from Edward and the others. Julia stood there hugging on to Al, griping tight to his shirt, scared from the suddon out burst of Edward. Alice turned around and faced Ed who was still standing there furius and clenching his fists tight.

"I did love her you idiot!" Alice said finally speaking up. "I loved her more than anything!". Her eyes began to swell with tears. "And if doing the human transmutation with you will prove it to you then, hell! I'll do it you dummy!". Edward stood there now relaxing his fist and stood there with a simapthetic look to his eyes. "I'm sorry I yelled at you Alice" Edward said. Alice wiped away her tears "Come on dummies. Lets bring mom back!" Alice said grabing ahold of her two brothers and her sisters hand.

"Hey, sis wake up!" Edward said shaking Alice awake. "Huh" Alice mummered. "We're almost to Central. You ready to become a state alchemist!" Edward said excidedly."Yeah" Alice said streching as she sat up and look out the window. "Why am I dreaming about my past so suddenly" Alice thought to herself. "Hey sister what were you dreaming about?" Julia said.

"Oh...uh just stuff...nothing important." Alice said. Half an hour had pased before the train stopped in Central. "Passengers going to Central grab your bags cause were stopping a 2 minutes!" the conducter said to the passengers."Well heres our stop guys" Ed said getting up and stretching. "Uh, Ed you shouldn't-" Julia said but was cut off by the suddon stop. Edward fell face foward into the the bench Alice was sitting on from the jolt of the stop.

"Owwww" Ed mumbled. "Get up dumbass" Alice said as she poked Ed. "I'M NOT A DUMBASS YOU JERK, AND WATCH OUT TRAIN GUY I COULD SUE YOU IF I GET A CONCUSSION!" Ed screamed. "Well it's not my fault you were dumb enough to stand up when we were about to stop." The conducter yelled back. "WHY YOU!-" Ed yelled. "Brother please stop, you're causing a scene!" Julia and Al said. "Come on lets go!" Alice said jumping off the train.

"Uh hey wait!" Ed said following along with Julia and Al. Edward, Alice, Julia and Alphonse walked around the train station. Colonel Mustang had sent a car to pick them all up and bring them to Central Command for Alice and Ed's exam. "Hey over here!" a girl screamed over to them. They all ran over to greet her at the car. "Hi I'm Amelia. I'll be your escort to Central Command" she said sweetly.

"Uh thanks." Ed said as he got in the car. "Um is there going to be enough room for us all" Julia asked concerned since of Al's height in that metal suit of his. "Oh yes, The Colonel has already thought of that." she said gesturing towards Al and her to follow into the car. "Oh thank you thats very nice of him." Julia said smiling sweetly. Everyone got into the car that had more than enough room and road peacefully to Central Command. When they arived they got out and headed to the building. "Edward, Alice you will be ecorted by Lieutenant Maria Ross to where you will be talking the State Alchemy exam. Alphonse and Julia will be escorted by Sergeant Denny Brosh to the library where they can hang out for a bit." Ameilia said.

"Thank you." they all said. The siblings all walked over to each other. "Well see you in a bit." Alice said messing up Julia's poofy hair. "Yeah I hope you do well, Ed too." Julia said pushing Alice's hand away and giving her a big hug. "Thanks." Alice said hugging her back. "Take care of sis while me and Alice are taking they test.K? Al?" Edward said."Ok, I will and I hope you and Ally do well." Alphonse said.

Julia and Alphonse walked away with Sergeant Brosh to the library leaving Alice and Edward. "Ready sis?" Ed said asked. "Ready!" Alice said.
