So, I'll make this my first story in the Anime Crossovers Section. I am coauthoring a story with Luvergirl22 here, but that won't count. This story is IY/FMA and is based on a true story (even if some events will be "fictionized" for entertainment. Enjoy!

One last note: Al is human, Ed has all limbs, and InuYasha will remain half-demon. The amusement park is located in Tokyo, but I am modeling it off of Hershey Park because that is where my adventure took place. I WILL NOT change the ride names. They do not belong to me. They are Hershey Park's and theirs alone. While we're on that subject, I don't own InuYasha or Fullmetal Alchemist either. They belong to their respective owners.

Now on with the story. Flashbacks are first this time.


Chapter 1

Several Days Earlier

Kagome Higurashi rode her bike through the sidewalks of Tokyo one day in mid-July. As she headed home, she spotted an old friend in the crowd. "Hey, Ed!" she called to the young blonde.


Ed POV

Edward Elric was walking toward the grocery store when he heard a young woman yell, "Hey, Ed!" Ed turned back to see a woman with raven-black hair running his way. When she stopped in front of him, Ed asked the woman, "Do I know you?" The woman's expression turned slightly downcast at Ed's question. "Don't you recognize me, Ed?" she replied, "It's me, Kagome Higurashi."

Ed was shocked. This woman was the same Kagome he had gone to grade school with. They had been the same height then. "Wow, Kagome, I didn't recognize you. You're so…tall."

Ed and Kagome are the same age. When they met for the first time in grade school, they had clicked instantly. Gender didn't matter back then. At that time, the Elric family was going through hardships. Mr. Elric began to care more about his work than his family. Three years later, Mrs. Elric's patience ran out. She took Edward and his little brother, Alphonse, and they moved to the suburbs. That had been the last time that Ed had seen Kagome.


Kagome POV

Kagome was overjoyed to see Ed again. She noticed that Ed had been heading to the grocery store. Kagome took a spare piece of paper out of her pocket and scribbled her phone number down on it. "I see that you're here to run errands, so I won't hold you up." Kagome handed Ed the piece of paper. "Here's my phone number, just in case you've forgotten it."

Kagome started to heard home with her bike, but she stopped and turned back when she heard Ed yell, "Hey, Kagome, wait!" Ed ran up to Kagome and stopped beside her. He handed a slip of paper to Kagome. Kagome took the paper and noticed that it had been torn from her original piece of paper. "This is my phone number, just in case you want to talk."

Kagome put the paper in her pants pocket just as Ed had done. "Thanks, Ed. See ya later."

"Good bye, Kagome," Ed replied before turning back to the grocery store. Kagome hopped onto her bike and headed toward the Higurashi Shrine, her home.


A Few Hours Later

After dinner, Kagome's mother walked into Kagome's room. "Kagome, can we talk?" Kagome looked up from the book she was reading. "Sure, what is it, Mom?"

"Well, I've been thinking about things. Sota is going to be away at a soccer camp, so I thought that you should take InuYasha to the amusement park."

"I don't know if InuYasha will want to go, but I know someone else who'd probably be willing to go," Kagome replied. Kagome's mother looked slightly confused. "Who would that be, Kagome?" Kagome pulled Ed's phone number out of her pocket and gave the slip of paper to her mother who took it. "Ed Elric. This is his phone number."

"Ed Elric from your grade school? Did you see him in Tokyo?" Kagome nodded. "Yep, he was running errands for his mother."

"You should invite Ed and Al, and if they can go, you should persuade InuYasha to accompany you three."

"I think that you're getting a little ahead of yourself, Mom. Anyway, I was going to call Ed, but I wanted to make sure I had you're permission first." Kagome stopped and turned back to face her mother. "I do have your permission, right?" Mrs. Higurashi nodded. "Yes, of course, Kagome." Kagome smiled. "Thanks, Mom." She then walked to her desk where her pink telephone rested. Kagome sat down on her desk chair as she dialed Ed's number.

Trisha Elric, Ed's and Al's mother, picked up the phone after two rings. "Hello, Elric residence."

"Hi, Ms. Elric," Kagome replied, "I'm calling to talk to Ed," she stated. "Oh, are you Ed's girlfriend?" Ms. Elric joked. "Uh…no," Kagome replied, wondering why no one in the Elric family remembered who she was right away. "Ms. Elric, it's me, Kagome Higurashi."

"Oh, Kagome, it's so good to hear from you! We haven't heard from you since Ed's third year in grade school, huh?"

"I…guess. Actually, I talked to Ed this afternoon in Tokyo. Speaking of which, is Ed available? Can I talk to him?"

"The boys are out back practicing alchemy and transmutation circles, but I'll see if Ed wishes to speak with you." Alchemy? Kagome wondered. When did Ed start learning alchemy?


Ed POV

Ed Elric tried to teach his little brother, Al, how to perform alchemy without a transmutation circle. Al looked up. "Brother, am I getting it?" Ed looked down. The pieces of scrap metal looked exactly the same as before. Ed shook his head. "Try drawing a transmutation circle and let me see what happens."

Al didn't question his older brother's idea. He drew a transmutation circle around the scrap metal. Al placed his hands on the circle and it began to glow blue. As the light cleared, Ed noticed that Al's alchemy had turned the scrap metal into a very small robot. Ed shook his head. "Just as I thought," he muttered. Al heard Ed muttering and looked up. "What is it, brother?"

Ed gestured toward Al's metal result. "It's just as I thought. This test just proves that you still can't perform alchemy without a transmutation circle and your level will probably never reach the skill to be able to do it." Al looked downcast. "Man that stinks."

Ms. Elric, holding the phone, walked out onto the back porch. "Ed, phone call!" she yelled to her oldest son. Ed walked onto the porch and took the phone from his mother. "Hello," he began. "Hi, Ed," came the reply, "this is Kagome. I know that we just spoke this afternoon, but I was wondering about something."

"Yeah, what is it?" Ed wondered, curious. "My little brother is going to be away and my mom posed the idea of going to the amusement park. Anyway, I was wondering if you and Al would like to come with me."

"It sounds like fun, but I have to get my mother's consent first. Actually, I could do that now. Do you mind holding for a minute?"

"Not at all," Kagome replied. Ed cupped his hand over the bottom of the phone and walked into the house to find his mother. He found her in the kitchen. "Hey, Mom, Kagome called to ask if Al and E can go to the amusement park with her. Can we go, Mom?" Ms. Elric smiled. "I don't see why not, but just make sure you also clear things with Roy." Ed cheered silently. "Great. I'll just tell Kagome that it looks like a 'yes' and then I'll call Mustang." Ed walked back outside.

Colonel Roy Mustang, or "The Flame Alchemist," is Ed's superior at Central. Roy Mustang is also Trisha Elric's boyfriend. He lives with her and the two brothers. Edward Elric is a State Alchemist and Alphonse Elric is still trying to pass the State Alchemist test. Ed's State Alchemist title is "The Fullmetal Alchemist," but Ed had absolutely no clue how he had gotten it. He had no metal on him, except, maybe, on his belt.

Once Ed was seated on the bench swing that hung on the back porch, he removed his hand from the bottom of the phone. "Kagome, are you still there?"

"Yes," was Kagome's reply, "what did your mother say? Are you guys allowed to come?"

"Right now it looks like a yes, but I have to talk with my superior first. I'll call you back if he says 'no,' but if he says 'okay,' then I won't call you back. Does that sound okay, Kagome?"

"Sounds like a good plan, Ed. Hope you can come."

"Me too. Talk to ya later, Kagome." Ed disconnected the call after he heard Kagome's end of the line click off. He started to dial Roy Mustang's desk phone number when his mom came to the back door. "Roy's home now if you wish to talk to him." Ed cleared the incomplete number and raced inside. He threw the phone onto the sofa and stopped in front of Roy. "Fullmetal," Roy said in greeting, "do you need something?"

"Yeah," Ed replied, "My friend, Kagome, called and wondered if Al and I could go to the amusement park with her. I asked Mom. She said yes, but she also told me to ask you. So, may I go?" Roy Mustang, being a workaholic, was tempted to say 'no,' but then he remembered with whom he was dealing. Edward and Alphonse meant the world to Trisha. If he was to say 'no' and not have a good explanation to back up his decision, Trisha would hate him. Instead, Roy responded, "I don't see why not."

"All right!" Ed ran out to go tell Al. Roy laughed at young Edward. That boy's sure got spunk. Roy walked into the kitchen to greet Trisha and talk about preparations for Ed and Al.


Kagome POV

The Next Day

Kagome had not received another call from Ed, so she assumed that he was going. Kagome thought about what her mother had said last night about inviting InuYasha. It would be a lot of fun if InuYasha went, Kagome agreed. After leaving a quick note for her mother to say where she was going, Kagome walked to the well house and jumped into the dry well. Arriving 500 years in the past, Kagome used the vines on the side of the well to hoist herself out.

As soon as her feet landed on the grass, a blur of red and silver came to her from the Goshinboku. It was InuYasha. "What gives, Kagome? You said that you wouldn't be back for a while."

"I'm not staying, InuYasha. I just came to ask if you wanted to come to ask if you wanted to spend a day in my era at an amusement park."

"What's an amusement park?" InuYasha asked, curiously. "I'm not telling," Kagome replied, "you'll see if you come."

"I'm not going," InuYasha stated, "I'm not wasting my time in your era at this 'amusement park'."

"Fine. Ed and I will have a good time." InuYasha growled, slightly. "Who's Ed?"

"Ed's a friend, maybe more," Kagome lied. "Fine," InuYasha replied, "I'll go." Kagome smiled. "Great. I'll come back to get you on the day before we go. Bye, InuYasha." Kagome then headed back home to modern day Tokyo.

Later That Afternoon

Kagome once again picked up the receiver of her pink cordless phone and dialed Ed's phone number. This time, Al picked up the phone after two rings. "Hello," he said in his semi-high-pitched voice. "Hi, Al. This is Kagome. Can I speak to Ed?" Kagome said her name first to avoid confusing Al. "Oh, hi, Kagome. Ed's watching TV. I'll go get him." Kagome heard Al yell Ed's name and say, "Kagome's on the phone."

A second later, Kagome heard Ed's voice on the other line. "Hi, Kagome. You didn't cancel the trip right? I hope not because Al and I are really looking forward to it." Once Kagome got a chance to talk, she replied, "No, I'm not canceling the trip. I just called to say that I'm going to bring another friend along too. His name is InuYasha."

"Okay. That sounds cool," Ed responded. Kagome was about to end the call, but then she remembered something important. "Ed, don't forget to bring swimsuits, and could you bring an extra one for InuYasha? He doesn't swim much."

"Sure. Thanks for the update, Kagome."

"Anytime. Talk to ya later, Ed." Kagome disconnected the call and returned the phone receiver to its cradle. Finally, all the plans to the trip to the amusement park were set.


Okay, there is one more chapter of "preparations" then the park. I'm not going to focus too much on the actual rides themselves. I was too busy having fun to take notes.
