Chapter one-the false belief Leto

The blonde was eating some ramen at a local eatery called Food. His hair was tied back into a neat ponytail with a length of medical tape binding it together; stopping about a little passed his shoulder blades. He wore a black jean jacket that stopped above his hip and had the left sleeve torn off, revealing a bandaged arm with a strip of leather holding up five cylinders, each containing a spike that was slightly longer than the cylinder. One his left breast was a slab of metal with the black rough impression of a spiraling leaf with a large, deep scratch mark running along the center of it horizontally. Under his jacket was a sleeveless mesh shirt that did little to hide his features from the rest of the world. His legs were covered by black baggy jeans with many pockets for carrying various items held up by many belts holding slots, each large enough for one small scroll. His feet were covered by black boots. Over his eyes were ruby red sunglasses, reflecting off the world like mirrors. On the back of his hip was a pouch of leather that held up several items and on his right thigh was a kunai holster. He had features that a normal human should not have. Behind him swished a long, bushy, red and white fox tail. His ears were pointed like an elf with red and white fur making it look like a fox's. His cheeks were each marred with three whisker marks and his canines pocked his lower lips ever so slightly. He had a large katana attached to his back, sheathed in a black leather sheath. The katana was larger than most. The blade was completely silver with dark blue kanji running up the length of the blade for 'spirit of darkness'. His body was the height of that of an average fifteen or sixteen year old.

His ears twitched as he listened to the waiter's and to other's conversation. The waiter didn't seem like anything special to the blonde but it was the two that the man was talking to that attracted the blonde's attention. One was a large suit of armor with a childish voice. His eyes seemed to put of this silverfish glow that made the blonde question if he was even human. The helmet had a large spike sticking out of the forehead. The chin was actual larger than a normal human's should be. The shoulder pads were lined with large spikes and held to the armor by strips of leather that connected to a large spot of leather on his ribs. A long blue skirt like cloth came off from the waist down to his knees. On his left shoulder he had this symbol. It was cross with a snake curling up it and had a crown on top of the cross with two wing like shapes floating beside the top of the cross. The one next to him seemed to be around the same age as the blonde, even if he was smaller than average. The teen had blonde hair that was braded and stopped to about the end of his shoulders. He wore a red trench coat that stopped to about his calf with the same symbol the suit of armor had on the back of his jacket. Under the trench coat he wore a black shirt with white lining and black pants being held up by a large leather belt. His hands were covered by white cloves, making sure the skin was not visible. His eyes were golden, something that struck as odd to the blonde as he hasn't seen too many people with that eye color. In the short teen's pocket was a silver chain connecting to the belt.

"A radio broadcast of a sermon?" the suit of armor asked after hearing what was said on the radio.

"A messenger of Kami, what's that?" the blonde next to him asked.

The man looked at the two as if they were crazy. "I think I ought to be the one saying 'what's that' about you." The two looked at the man as if he was kidding. "Are you street performers?" The two continued to stare at the man. The blonde spying on the two was silently chuckling to himself. The two did seem a little to odd to be average.

"Okay pops, what part of us looks like street performers?" the short blonde asked in defense.

"I keep looking, but that's all you could be," the man answered back truthfully. The teen cursed under his breath a bit. "I don't see people with faces like yours around these parts often, tourists?" the man asked.

The blonde teen rested his head in his hands as he answered. "Yeah, we're looking for something," the blonde answered. "Anyway, what's with the broadcast?"

"You haven't heard of Cornello-sama?" the man asked. The taller blonde's interest peaked as he heard the man talk about the man.

"Who?" the suit of armor asked.

The waiter seemed to be astonished at the two's ignorance. "Founder Cornello! Messenger of Leto, the sun Kami!" the man had enthusiasm as he spoke. "He is the founder of Leotism, the one with the 'Power of Miracles.' He's this really wonderful who came to this city a couple of years ago and showed us the way of Kami." He looked over to the short blonde and saw that he was not even paying attention. "You ain't listening kid," the man said as he developed a tick mark on the back of his head.

The short blonde started to push himself off the stool. "I'm stuffed, let's beat it." the suit of armor seemed to agree as he got up and bashed the top of the vender. The radio that was situated on top of it came crashing down to the ground and shattered on impact. The suit of armor crouched down and inspected the parts while the waiter started to complain about the suit being too big. "Sorry, sorry. We'll fix it right up."

"Fix, how?" the waiter asked. He honestly had no clue how they would do it. It was not like they were alchemists. They sure as hell did not look like it.

The suit of armor started to draw a plethora of complex seals around the broken device. He then stood up and held his hands over one another at a distance from his body. The seal then flashed and electricity sparked from it. Naruto looked on with a curious glance. These two could be the people e needed to see. The sure as hell fit the description. Naruto smiled. It has been a little while since they have seen each other. The man looked stunned for a second before pointing an accusing finger. "You can use the 'Power of Miracles!" he shouted. The short blonde sweat dropped at the remark.

"We're alchemists," the suit of armor said with his hands on his hips.

The short blonde crossed his arms and looked at the crowd that was forming. "Just call us the Elric Brothers. We're sort of famous." Everyone gawked at the remark before breaking out in frenzy. Naruto laughed as the thought the suit of armor was Edward Elric, the Full Metal Alchemist. When the suit of armor named Alphonse pointed out Edward was the short one and he was the younger brother. Edward blew up on the cord when the commented him about his height problem. The blonde that was spying on the people turned to the side as he saw a girl walk towards them. His mind started to draw blanks. To him the girl was gorgeous. Her hair was brown with the bangs a light pink and it reached about mid back. Her eyes were a beautiful shade of violet. She wore a plain white dress that did little to hide her beautiful features. She seemed to be about a few years older than him. The blonde shook his head, trying to rid himself of the thoughts he was having about the girl.

"Hello! It's a little lively today," the girl greeted in a cheerful tone. The waiter greeted her in turn and started to take out some stuff from the back, calling her Rose

"Going to back church again?" the waiter asked as he started to bag some items.

The girl nodded as she pulled out some money from what looked like a wallet. "Yes, I need to make some offerings." She turned her head to Edward and Alphonse before greeting them. "Oh, I haven't met you before."

The waiter decided to talk for the group. "He said he's an alchemist. Seems like he's looking for something."

Edward shook his head. 'And a certain somebody who was supposed to meet here thirty minutes ago,' he grumbled in his mind. The taller blonde watched as she took the bag and started to walk away.

"Rose has become a lot more energetic," someone commented. "It's all thanks to the founder." Edward shot the man a questioning look. "That girl, she ain't got any relatives, but on top of that, her boyfriend died in an accident this year. You'd think she'd be sad, but she didn't look so down." The taller blonde looked at the food in front of him as if trying to inspect it. That was what the glint in her eyes was. She was trying to hide her pain. The blonde concentrated on the talking to see what more information he could gain without speaking about this Cornello character. The name did sound very familiar to the blonde however. "What saved her were the teachings of Cornello, the messenger of the sun Kami Leto! He who gives everlasting life to the living and rebirth to the dead. Mister, you should take a look too! That's definitely the power of Kami." They all heard the tall blonde snort. Their eyes traveled to him as he got up and walked towards them lazily. They sweat dropped at his lazy posture, making them think if he is capable of wielding the sword on his back.

"There is only one way I know of to resurrect the dead and it's a fools dream," the blonde said in a lazy tone. "Tell me, you guys learned of this religion only two years ago if I am correct." The group nodded as the hatred for the blonde got more intense. "Did you guy's bother to make a background check on the guy. If not let me tell you a little about him." The blonde then reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a yellow book before flipping it to the right page. "Cornello, D-rank nuke-nin. Skills are mid genin to low chuunin. Wanted for making a false religion and trying to take over the Elemental Nations. Each and every one of his followers died in his name." Naruto then showed them a picture of the man on the page.

The group looked at gun heatedly. "That's a lie you fool. If you believe in Leto too he may be able to rid you of those beliefs and your fox traits." Naruto sweat dropped before answering.

"Sorry, I never was one for false religions." The blonde then placed his hands in his pockets lazily and started to walk away. Edward and Alphonse looked at the teen's retreating figure with wide eyes.

"Al, was that Naruto?" Edward asked. Alphonse nodded a slightly. His face turned to excitement. "Then what are we waiting for! We haven't seen him in a long time and now he has offered to be our new traveling buddy!" he then started to sprint after the blonde.

Naruto turned around after he heard his name get called. When he did he saw Edward and Alphonse running after him n a sprint. The shorter blonde skidded to a stop right in front of him and decked the lazy Jinchuriki. Naruto fell to the floor. "Yeah, sure, that is a wonderful way to greet someone you haven't seen in four years," the blonde mumbled lazily as he got up.

"You idiot!" Edward started. "We haven't seen you in years and when we finally get the chance to meet you walk away. Naruto rubbed his jaw before speaking. The shorter blonde must have punched him with his right arm.

"Word of advice, next time you want to deck me, use your other arm," Naruto mumbled under his breath. "Second thing, I knew you were going to follow me if you recognized me. That place was not the right place to speak of whatever it is you want to talk about. So what is it you want to talk about?"

Alphonse looked at Naruto before shaking his head. "Why did you tell them about the Edo Tensei? Isn't it forbidden for a reason?" Naruto shook his head yes before answering.

"The jutsu may be able to resurrect bodies but never souls and the price is another life," Naruto answered. "Unless they run into Orochimaru then they can never do the jutsu. And the man is dead from what I hear."

Edward shook his head laughing. "And you can't miss much with ears like those." The blonde then pointed at the fox like ears for emphasis. Naruto shook his head with a slight lazy smile

"I don't know about you two but I am glad you guys got the letter." Edward smiled.

"Same here Naruto, same here." Naruto looked at the street before looking towards the church. Edward then inspected Naruto with a skeptical eye before smiling. "So you did decide to grow your hair out like I suggested." Naruto shook his head yes to answer. "You're still lazy, which is a good thing in my book. We always need a lazy smart ass joining and you fit the bill

"Guys we need to stop Cornello before he tries to do something stupid." The two of him looked at Naruto like he was crazy. "Look, this guy is a psychopath who is more like a tyrant than anything else really. He hides behind a mask of false hope and happiness when he really wants to take over this place. He tried the same thing inside a small city in Hi no Kuni. Fortunately we were able to take out the city. He, however, manage to escape. The day he left was a little over two years ago." Edward nodded.

"Yeah, we were going to go over to the church anyway. I want to see what this man is all about." Naruto nodded before following them to the church. Naruto scoffed at the look of the church. It was so cliché. The benches were set so they make single isle going down the center of it. At the end was a large stone podium and behind t hat was a large statue of man, wearing a toga keeling down with a staff in his right hand pointing upwards. His head was crowned with what could be identified as a resemblance of the sun. Behind him was the sun engraved in the wall. It was exactly like the last time.

Their attention was drawn to Rose as she walked towards them. "Oh, didn't I meet you earlier?" she asked as she walked towards them. "Do you want to learn about Letoism?" she asked curiously.

"Sorry, but I'm an Atheist," Edward replied offhandedly.

"That's not good!" she yelled. "By believing in Kami, you'll live with daily gratitude and hope… isn't that wonderful?!" she then gained a fire in her eyes. If you have faith then you'll definitely get bigger." Naruto palmed his hand as Edward was about to maul the girl. Her eyes traveled from Edward to Naruto, or more importantly, his foxy features. She squealed in delight as she glomped the poor teen and started to scratch his ears, making the teen purr in contentment. "Kawaii!!" she squealed loudly.

Edward shook his head mumbling something about lucky bastards before sitting down. "Jeez, how can you believe something like that?" Rose stopped her ministrations on the blonde to look at the shorter one. "Pray to god and the dead will comeback…huh?"

She closed her eyes. "Yes, without a doubt."

The short blonde sighed as he took out an old book with several markers on it. "thirty-five liters of water, twenty-five kilograms of carbon, four liters of ammonia, one point five kilograms if lime, eight-hundred grams of phosphorous, two-hundred-fifty grams of salt, eighty grams of sulfur, seven point five grams of fluorine, five grams of iron, three grams of silicon, and a little bit of fifteen other elements." Rose looked at the boy with a confused look. What was he listing things off for? There was no point in all those things, were there? "These would be the calculated components that make up the human body of a single adult. We already know that much with modern science, but the reality is that no successful human transmutation as veer been reported. There is not enough something. For hundreds of years scientists have been researching and researching, but they still haven't been able to grasp it." he closed the book with both hands and pocketed it. "So, you could say it's a wasted effort, but I think it is a lot more useful than praying and waiting."

He face contorted in anger. How dare he throw her beliefs in her face like that?! How dare he?! "A person is not a thing! You are being disrespectful to the creator! You will get the wrath of heaven." Edward broke out into a hysterical laughing fit.

'Alchemists are scientists so we can't believe in vague things like the 'creator' or 'Kami'," Edward answered back. "We explain the fundamentals if the creation of everything in this world and pursue the truth. It is ironic that as scientists we don't believe in Kami yet we are the ones closest to Kami."

Rose scoffed at the three. "That's arrogant," she retorted. There was no possible way that ANY one could be close to Kami. There was just simply no way. "You think of yourself as Kami's equal?"

Naruto snorted. "No we don't. There is a legend that goes like this. There was once a hero who made wings of wax so he could fly but when he got too close to the sun, to Kami, the wings melted and he crashed to earth. That is the way it is for everyone. We are no different." Naruto started for the door. "When does Cornello go public? I want to see the 'Power of Miracles' for myself." She nodded before motioning them to0 follow.

"It should be in five minutes," she said. "I was about to go there anyway so follow me." Naruto nodded before following her with Edward and Alphonse close behind. Naruto started to think of ways to that his 'Power of Miracles' are possible. Maybe they were some sort of jutsus or some sort of alchemy. Those two were the only possible concepts for this power to exist. It was the only way it even made sense.

They followed Rose to the town square. Naruto watched as the man named Cornello came on to the statue of Leto. He was large bald man with a metal cane. To the people he had a kind face with a kind smiled. On his left hand was a ring with a red gem in it. Flowers fell from the sky as he walked onto the statue's base. Beside him were his guards. He waved to the people as the cheered for him. The man caught a flower as it fell to the floor and clasped it in his hands. Light and electricity escaped from his hands as the ring glowed. When he let go of the flower it was now a large sunflower. The thing was so bright, so full of life. Naruto's eyes widened. There were no alchemic circles or seals and there was no chakra use. This was not supposed to be possible. There was no way that this man could do this. He could not op this before. He used chakra to fake the illusion last time but his time there was none. He turned to Edward and Alphonse.

"There was no chakra use at all," Naruto informed as he kept searching for any possible use.

"Then it has to be alchemy," Alphonse declared.

Edward shook his head yes. "Yeah, but it doesn't follow the laws of it," the golden eyed blonde reasoned. The other two shook their heads in agreement.

"That's because it's not alchemy or the power of this chakra as you call it," Rose said with a certain I told you ring to it. "No doubt that this is the 'Power of Miracles'. After all, Cornello-sama is the son of Leto.

Naruto shook his head. "Nah, there would be something a lot more different than this. This is alchemy." Rose looked at him like he was stupid.

"But what he did was against the law," Alphonse added.

"Yeah, that's true," Edward said. Rose looked at the three, wondering what they were talking about. Edward pointed upward to Cornello to prove a point. "From an average person's viewpoint, alchemy is a very handy skill that can make anything without limits. But the truth is that there is a rule to it. To put it roughly there's the law of conservation of mass and the law of providence." Rose looked at Edward like she didn't get a thing.

Alphonse shook his head before intervening. "Uhm let me try to explain. It's taking an object with one element, and changing it into an object with the same element. An object with the properties of water can only be transmutated into an object with watery attributes.

Edward took up explaining once again. "In short, the basis of alchemy is 'exact trade.' If you want to make something you need something of the equivalent cost." Edward pointed to Cornello once again. "But he ignored that law and was able to transmute."

Rose looked at the three before yelling at them. "Make some sense! Do you three believe in the 'Power of Miracles' or not!" Naruto continued to look at the man as he put his hand to his chest.

Alphonse pointed to the ring on the man's finger. "Aniki, Naruto, maybe it's the ring?"

Edward and Naruto nodded. "Yeah maybe it is." Edward's eyes narrowed at the sight of the gem in the ring. "Bingo." He turned to Rose with a bright. Miss, I'm interested in this religion! I want to talk to Cornello-sama, so could you give me some information?!" Edward was slightly disgusted at himself for referring to the man like that. The man certainly did not deserve that kind of respect if Naruto was right. The man needed to die. Naruto pretty much said the same thing except in a lazier, less cheerful manner. He felt like shit for saying that.

Rose clasped her hands together. The two finally were believers. This was wonderful. Leto was the light for everyone, even for alchemists. "Oh, you two finally became believers?! Her face became a dead pan look as she pointed to the blonde with reflective sunglasses. "But you could have some more enthusiasm."

Naruto pointed to himself. "Sorry Rose-chan but I was never known for my enthusiasm." She shook her head before motioning them to follow her again, mumbling 'that the cute foxy blonde will gain enthusiasm from Leto.'

The group followed her back the church. The only difference was that they went through a door on the side of the place and started to follow a man with black hair and some robes. Naruto felt two chakra sources. Both of them were mid chuunin. They were out of sight but they were terrible at hiding their chakra levels. He did however see to guards with long staffs with some fabric coming off of it with Leto depicted on it in black.

They followed the man who was taking them to Cornello. Te black haired man smirked evilly as he reached into his coat pocket. Naruto narrowed his eyes as he felt the ninjas come up to him. Both of them were bothering to come at him so they would be easy to take out. His hands rushed through some hand seals before stopping at one before the final hand seal so it would not released.

The man smirked as he whipped out a gun and pointed it in the eye socket of Alphonse. He quickly pulled the trigger, blasting the helmet of the rest of the body. Edward and Naruto faked a look of shock as Rose looked utterly horrified. Why would they do this? This was not the teachings of Leto. Leto would never condone this kind of action and neither would Cornello. The two guards rushed over to Edward and forced him to kneel while they had their staves right under his neck. The tow chuunins gripped Naruto by the arms, holding him in place.

"Brother, what is the meaning of this?!" Rose yelled.

"Rose, these men are heretics that were going to trap Cornello-sama. They are demons." Naruto hardened his eyes at the man while Edward looked at him angrily. He should not have done that. He heard of Naruto's life in Konoha and quite frankly did not like it one bit. He knew the life of a Jinchuriki. He knew what kind of torment they had to go through. He was a firm believer that the only demons were the ones who were that in mind.

Rose looked at him in disbelief. They were not demons. There was simply o way that they could. "No, if that's why, then Cornello-sama surely wouldn't have allowed this to happen."

The man smirked darkly at her. "Cornello-sama has allowed this! The words of Cornello are the words of Kami! This is the will of Kami." Naruto sighed as he finished the hand seal and extended his shadow to the shadows of the two chuunin that were holding him.

"That's a mean Kami," Alphonse remarked as he held the gun with hand. The man looked at the armor like it was some kind of monstrosity. What the fuck was this. There was no one in the suit of armor. This was not supposed to be possible. Edward gripped the man on his left and dropped him to the floor. Naruto switched his seal to a different one and had chakra hands follow up there body to their necks. "Kage-Kubi-Shibari-no-jutsusuccess," the blonde mumbled. They felt the air suffocate out of them before unconsciousness gripped them. Naruto released them and allowed them to fall to the floor. Naruto looked as the last man as he fell unconscious by Edward throwing Alphonse's helmet at him. Naruto looked at the Hakke no Fuuin Shiki as it glowed and sprawled across his body before reverting back into its original state.

Rose pointed at the suit of armor and started to panic. "What is that?!"

Edward sighed as he knocked on the helmet-less suit of armor. "Exactly what it looks like," he replied.

A/N Well this is another thing that has been trapped inside my mind. The pairings will definitely be Naru/Rose but I am still debating on to add Hawkeye and Winry or just Winry. Either way Winry is still going to be added. And if you have not noticed I am basing this Naruto off of The Lazy Maelstrom. He will have the same techniques and the same attitude but he will use alchemy more often. They way he uses alchemy will be my secret. I will give you a hint however. It ties in with the title of the story. For now bye, and if you do not review I will sick my many blood hounds on you. And believe me, they like the taste of human. To them, it tastes just like Spam.
