Chapter 1

"Little Alchemist Little Alchemist, have you come to bring me a brew?

Little Alchemist Little Alchemist, what do you do." A deep booming voice spoke, causing Isla's eyes to snap open. Around her she saw her home of Lanark burning in a dark red fire, smoke rising into a disturbingly gruesome visage of the night sky. Behind her, in what was her family home, a being with dark skin and flaming hair sat in the middle of the burning home on a throne of bones and gore.

"Little Alchemist Little Alchemist, what do you do?

Little Alchemist Little Alchemist, how does your life hold value?" The demon spoke causing a chill to run down her spine.

"Who are you?" She asks causing the demon to laugh.

"You ask 'who are you?'

I am your father and your father's father too." It spoke with a deep laugh.

"Akuma!" She growls, again making the demon laugh. Reaching to her back she goes to grab The Gear Blade however her hand only grabs air.

"Little Alchemist Little Alchemist there are no weapons here

My daughter there is only your fear." Akuma roared with laughter, and from the shadow of his throne a glowing pair of red orbs blinked into existence staring at Isla with a sense of want and malice.

Sighing in annoyance she waited for either the demon, or the thing under the throne to move. Seeing neither move, she takes a step back and gasps when she hears something snap onder her feet. Looking down and behind her she sees a sea of bone littering the ground that weren't their a minute ago. Most of the bones were barren, striped of flesh and laying on the groud discarded. However, there were a few bones that seemed familiar, one had a old looking rifle logged in the ribcage, while a second set seemed to glow with a heavenly aura, and the third set had a hat pinned under the skull, and the right arm was missing.

"This is your fate, a bloody bone filled spree.

Unless you do as you sister and submit to me." The fire demon laughed.

"Not gonna happen!" Isla yells as she feels fire burn her blood. Akuma opens his maw to speak but a sound from the sky interrupts them.

"Ian get your ass in here something is happening!" A familiar accented voice yelled.

"Wait what!" The disembodied voice of Ian yells.

"It's like she is having a dream or a nightmare." David's voice yells from the sky.

"So long Little Alchemist, we will talk again my dear.

Of that you should have no fear." Akuma said before he and the surrounding village swirled into a black void.

For a minute she felt like she was falling then gasped in surprise as she shoot up to a sitting position. Looking around she sees that she is in a barren stone room, and from a window she can see snow falling from the sky. To her left Ian and David are worriedly watching her while Diane and Gladys are to her right casting healing spells, and in the corner if the room Duncan and Archer were watching expectantly.

"Rise and shine Isla we got work to do." Ian says as he throws her a bag of clothes and her ever familiar Gear Blade.
