Here's my newest fic.
The starting if from the 'Nothing can be explained' from Bleach the anime.
Lost on the way,
no one to blame,
no one to say,
nothing to do with the way everything's changed…
…
Edward Elric sat on the hard seat of the train, looking out at the scenery that was floating by. His eyes were half-open. The train made a loud whistling noise as it stopped at a station.
Alphonse Elric stared around him. I… have never seen this place before… "All passengers, please alight. This train is terminating at this station." A loud voice cut through the silence. Edward jerked awake. "Huh?" He said, looking up. "What the…?"
Alphonse looked at his brother. "I thought this train goes all the way back to Central?" Al asked. Edward looked around, yawning. "I think they met with some problems. Come on… let's get off and catch another train…" Edward said, pulling his suitcase off from the luggage platform above their seats. "Come on…" He repeated, as he could feel Alphonse's doubts about getting off. "We can't stay here forever. We'd get shooed off in the end."
Alphonse nodded. "A… Alright."
A cold wind blew across the empty platform, save for the few people that has been shooed off the train. Edward looked around, his blond hair being slightly messed up by the wind. He noticed that the gate was broken, and he couldn't see what was beyond the station gates for the mist was heavy. "Is it nighttime now? It's… so dark…" Edward said, looking up at the dark blue skies that was crackling with thunder and occasional flashes of lightning. Edward tried to use the station's clock, but it was cracked and dusty, its hour hand had already fallen off. "What is this abandoned station?" Alphonse asked, clearly afraid. "When will the next train come anyway?"
Edward took note of the empty booths, which were collecting dust. The torn newpaper on the ground. He picked one piece up and looked. He was lucky. The date was there. "Hey… this is… last week's papers." Edward said, staring at it. "That means… there are people who came here, at least a week ago…" Edward stuffed the scrap of newspaper in his pocket. Then his jaw set and he ran towards the broken gates.
Alphonse gasped. "Brother! Where the hell are you going?! The next train will come soon…" The others on the platform turned to look, looking shocked as well. Edward turned around, a hand on the gates. "I am just looking around, okay! I'll be back soon." He said, waved to Al and pushed open the gates a fraction, then disappearing into the mist.
"Brother!" Al yelled, running towards the gate, but keeping away from the mist. He shouted into the mist. "BROTHER!"
Another man ran over. His face was etched with worry, and he has jet black hair, just like the Colonel's. "Boy! Come back!" He yelled as well. He seemed afraid too.
But there was no answer from the mist.
There was silence.
Edward only took two steps and he was lost. He turned around, deciding to take something to put as a trail. He was two steps, where he was supposed to have left the gates, and stretched out a hand. His hand groped mist. "Huh?" He said to himself, and took another few steps forward, feeling in front of him. "Where's the… gate?" He said, his golden eyes wide.
Edward could only hear deafening silence. Edward set his mind and sighed. "Great to get lost. Now the only way is… to find my way out!" Edward said to himself, and ran forward, not caring where he was going. Then he shouted. "Hey! Is there… anyone?!"
Edward ran a few more steps, and stopped, squinting his eyes. A few blurry shapes were moving through the mist. They appear to be… human… Edward smiled. "Hey! Hey!" He called out to those shapes, but they didn't respond to Edward. They just continued to walk… no… FLOAT… Edward stepped backwards. "Hey…?" He said. Then he bumped into something. He turned around and stared.
"Wha…" He said, his eyes wide, sweat dripping down his face.
Lost on the way…
"What kind of… joke is this…" Edward said, falling on the ground, crawling backwards. A huge wall of stone was in front of him. A red liquid rolled down the surface of the stone. Edward's line of vision moved up the line of red liquid to a pair of wet black shoes… wet black pants… a silver chain hanging from a belt, a red coat's button… and then long golden hair. The body was dripping wet, as if it had been fished up from a river. The boy's hands were pinned to the stone wall using a nail driven through his palm. His golden eyes were wide and dead, a slit at his throat.
Edward Elric was looking up at himself. A dead him.
"Whose idea… of a joke is this?!" He yelled, unable to tear his eyes away from the sight. The mist cleared a little and Edward was panting against a tree. Who made this? Who is it? Who trapped me here?!
No one to blame…
There was no answer from his surroundings, but a strange hissing. Edward got to his feet, running away from that hideous body pinned on the wall. It must be a trick…
No one to say…
Edward bursted out of the mist, sweating and panting heavily. His red cloak was torn at the hem and he was staring ahead of him. It was the gates. Edward walked forward pushing at it. "The station… the station… Alphonse…" Edward said, and walked through the gate. "Al…" Edward said. Then stared. There was no one on the platform. "Al…Alphonse?" He asked. His luggage was still there.
Fifteen minutes had passed, and Edward has not returned. Alphonse gripped the bars of the gates. "Brother… you IDIOT!" Alphonse yelled as the others on the platform looked worried and clustered around thee two. There was about seven of them. Three female, four males, including Alphonse and the man, excluding Edward.
"Are you fine?" A young girl asked, her red hair brightest among all the others. Alphonse looked at her. "I… My brother… he…" Alphonse looked at the mist that was swirling. It engulfed his brother. We're… supposed to be… going to Central. We're already a day late… Alphonse straightened up and pushed opened the gate. "I am… going in to find my brother…" He said, and walked into the mist.
"Wait! We'll go with you!" The man said, following in, and the rest followed. "We'll go too." They said bravely. The red haired girl grabbed hold of Alphonse's arm and they couldn't see each other anymore as the seven of them went into…
…nowhere.
