Edward Elric stood before the gate. He stared into the spaces on Truth's face where eyes should have been. And came up with a bargain. "I'll give up my alchemy to get Al's body back" he proposed rather loudly (Although the volume wasn't strictly necessary, it was intended for dramatic effect rather than intimidation, and it did bring flavor to the conversation). The Universe grinned and began to speak. "Very well, Fullmetal Alchemist. I had hoped you would have-" It paused and tilted It's head to one side. "Hmm, this could be intriguing. On second thought, your life will be becoming a bit more interesting, Edward Elric. As an extra token of good faith, I'll return your leg to your body. Have fun."
Georgia sped through space. As he took a second to glance at his oxygen levels, a white light suddenly came into being and impacted rather solidly into his head, causing him to briefly pass out. Coming to, he found himself in a stark white plane with only two things in sight: an enormous stone Gate and a smooth humanoid statue as white as the area around him. Suddenly the statue came to life and began to grin. "Welcome to the Gate, you fucking twat. I am God almighty, creator of the heavens and the Earth below, and I have interrupted your pathetic life to fuck your shit up, you pansycake. Go blow up a bunch of expensive crap and try to return to your idiotic crusade. So long sucker!" Taken aback, Georgia was pulled into the opening gate by grinning black tentacles. The doors closed just in time to hear that thing mutter "This is going to be fucking hilarious."
Ed awoke in the middle of nowhere. Slowly beginning to open his eyes, they suddenly shot open. Standing in front of him, its face uncomfortably close, was what Ed took to be some sort of freakish chimera. "Blargh?" it said, pausing for a moment. All Ed could manage was an "uhhh…" The Sangheli knocked him out.
As the light cleared, Edward and Alphonse's armor were gone, with a suit of extremely high-tech armor in their place. Noticing the silence, Mustang asked "What happened? Did it work?" A light flickered, and a hologram of Al's armor took form above the real suit. "Brother? Are you there? What happened to me? Brother?!" For the first time in a very long time, Alphonse Elric was without his brother (being shorter than him).
