Hello! I know, I know. I haven't finishedany of my other fanfics, and now I'm writeing a new one! For this story, I'll try to make the chapters longer then the ones I have written other then maybe one of the chapters from one of my other stories! Btw, Alphonse has his body back, but Edward still has his automail arm and leg. Enjoy! =D
Edward's POV
Edward sighed as he looked over the side of the medeum sized bout. There was a huge lake right beside the border to Artemis, and Furor King Bradley wanted the military to check an area of the shore, so he sent 4 people, which were Edward, Alphonse, Mustang, and Hawkeye.
"Brother!" A voice called, snapping Edward out of his thoughts.
"What is it Al?" Edward asked.
"The colonel told me that we are 1 km to the shore!" Alphonse said excitedly.
"Great! After this silly mission is done, you and I can continue researching." Edward said.
"But it's still nice to relax, isn't it?" Alphonse sighed.
"I guess. But all we get to do is sit around while the Colonel Basterd and the Lieutenant do everything!" Now it was Edward's turn to sigh.
Then, Colonel Mustang walked over.
"Good. Your both on. That means we can sleep, and then head home." Mustang said before walking away.
After the Colonel left, Edward went to where the Colonel kept his stuff, and started looking though it.
"Brother, I don't think you should be looking through the Colonel's stuff without his permission." Alphonse warned.
Even though Edward knew that he would be dead if the colonel found out that he was rummaging through the his stuff, Edward ignored Alphonse's warning and continued looking. Soon, Edward found something that confused him. It was a book that was titled 'Myths and Legends'. 'Why would the Colonel have something like this?' Edward thought. Then, he decided to take a peek at what was inside. He flipped to a random page, and then mentioned Alphonse to come closer. When Alphonse was with Ed, Edward started reading the words on the random page.
Legend of Curse Lake
Legend has it that a young women's true love drowned in an underground mine.
The women was so distraught, that died of hart break on the shores of a lake looking for him.
And to this day, her agonized soul roams the entrance of the mine, waiting for people to push in.
If you get pushed in, you shall be fused with a rare and unknown element.
People who find their way out of the mine, are usually considerd dead by the time they find their way home.
"Huh. That's a wired legend. Isn't it Brother?" Alphonse asked when Edward had finished reading the legend.
"I think it's just nonsense. There is no way that could be true. There is no equivalent exchange." Edward explained.
"I guess. At least the Colonel won't walk in here this minute."
As if Alphonse's words were a queue, Colonel Mustang walked right in the room.
~~Time skip to morning~~
Edward looked over the side of the bout at the dark scene. The sun hadn't even begun to rise yet. He just stared at the scene until Edward heard the Colonel call him.
"We're leaving in 10 minutes!" The colonel called.
"Fine!" Edward didn't even look at the colonel. After about 8 minutes. Edward decided to head over to the back of the bout. Just when he was about to stop, he triped over something, and fell off the bout, and into the water. Edward called for help, but no one answered. He tried to swim up to the bout, but it started to move away from him. He tried to swim faster, but the current and his automail slowed him down. Black dots started to cover his vision. But soon, Edward had no choice but to close his eyes, and let himself slip into unconsciousness.
Mwahahahaha! I Have put up the prologue for this chapter! Please review! I really want to know what you think! Give me ideas! Just don't give me flames please.
