AAAAAAND, HERE IT IS!

Chapter One- The Invitation

Ed was trying to sleep. He had worked hard all day; Mustang hadn't given him a moment's rest, and he had to walk all the way back from Central in the rain. He knew it was early, but all he wanted to do when he got home was take a nap. He had shrugged out of his soaking wet coat, dropping it on the worn wooden floor beside the couch. Flopping down, he pulled a blanket over himself and, closed his eyes, willed his damp body to rest. But he couldn't sleep. It was raining hard outside, and something was tapping his window, and it wouldn't stop.

"Uh! Jesus Christ…" Ed mumbled to himself, turning over and pulling a pillow over his head. But he could still hear the tapping.

"Shut the hell up!" he shouted as he sat up, throwing the pillow at the window. He missed the window, but he didn't miss the glowing yellow orbs peering in at him through the rainy darkness. Ed gave a little shriek and turned over, pulling the blanket over his head.

What the heck was that?! he thought, shivering under the blanket. He peered out for a moment, looking at the window. The eyes were gone.

Maybe I imagined it… he thought, looking closer at the window. The eyes did not appear, and Ed noticed, the tapping had stopped. He sighed and lay back on the couch, bunching up part of the blanket under his head as a pillow.

The pattering of the rain was about to put him to sleep when he heard the tapping noise again. This time it was coming from his front door. Jumping up off the couch with a start, Ed wrapped the blanket around his head and took a few steps towards the door.

"Who is it?" he whispered. He waited for an answer. The tapping stopped for a moment, before it started up again.

"What do you want?" Ed said a bit louder, pulling the blanket around him as he slowly walked towards the door. The tapping stopped as Ed stood in front of the door.

"Who is it? What do you want?" Ed repeated, louder still. There was no answer, and the tapping didn't start up again. Ed clutched the blanket around him as he slowly reached for the door.

As he slowly opened the door, he heard a terrible scratching and squawking noise. He slammed the door shut and ran back to the couch, hiding under the blanket.

"What the hell was that?" Ed thought. "This must be some kind of joke. If this is something Roy cooked up I swear..." He dumped the blanket on the couch and stalked over to the front door. He stood there for a second before ripping it open.

Complete chaos ensued.

A large, wet owl flew through the door, a piece of paper held in its beak. Ed shrieked, running after the owl, trying to get it out of the house. Wet feathers flew everywhere as Ed ran after it, waving his arms like a lunatic.

"OUT OUT OUT!" he shouted, trying to get the large owl back out the door. It dropped the letter on the floor and managed to gouge a large gash on Ed's cheek before it flew out. "YOU F[expletive deleted]ING BIRD!" Ed shouted at the top of his lungs into the rainy darkness.

He brought his fingers to his cheek and they came away slick w/ blood. "Great." Ed mumbled. He rinsed it off in the kitchen before going to pick up the letter. Lighting the lamp on the table, and wrapping the blanket around his shoulders again, Ed opened the letter.

It read, in large, curling, black script:

Dear Mr. Elric,

I am writing you to inquire about a teaching position. For a few years now, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has been contemplating the addition of an alchemy class. As you are one of the most prominent alchemist in our time, I was wondering if you would grace us with your presence and consider this position I am offering. You will be compensated handsomely, and will find we have an extensive library that might be of use to your endeavors in obtaining information about the philosopher's stone. Please give your answer to Roy as soon as possible.

I look forward to hearing from you,

Albus Dumbledore, headmaster H.S.W.S.

Ed just stared at the letter in his hands, his mouth slightly agape.

Roy sat at his desk, flipping through the mountain of papers he had to go through for the day and sighed. This was going to be a long day. He sighed again as Fullmetal burst through his door.

"Roy." Ed said as he stalked towards the man, hidden behind his desk. "Do you know anything about this?" He dropped the letter in front of Roy. "It came last night. By OWL. Scared the shit out of me. Some kind of joke you played, too bad I'm not laughing."

Roy ran one of his gloved hands through his hair. "Ed, it's not a joke." He picked up the letter and looked over it. "I asked them to send it in the most discrete manner, I'm sorry if it startled you."

"Like hell it did!" Ed interrupted, waving his arms for emphasis. "What is this all about?!"

"Just let me explain." Roy gripped Ed's arm and looked into his face, "this is NOT an order, but I would like you to seriously think about this." Roy looked at his hand, still clutching Ed's arm and dropped it suddenly, like he had been shocked. He looked back at Ed, who had stilled and was being unnaturally quite. "I have been in communication with this Dumbledore fellow for a few days now, and he said that he might have some information about the sorcerer's stone. I think it would be a good opportunity for us to get some information." Roy quieted, waiting for Ed to say something.

Ed rubbed his arm where Roy had held him absentmindedly as he gazed off into the distance, his eyes unfocused. "Fullmetal?" Roy said quietly. "I think this would be a good opportunity." He said again.

Ed's eyes snapped back into focus and he quickly glanced at Roy and then out the large windows behind him. The overcast sky was threatening rain again. At length he said, "Hogwarts, a school for witches and wizards. I'm not either of those things. Why do they want me to teach alchemy? How do they know that we're looking for the stone? I don't know anything about teaching. I don't even want to teach anybody!" he ranted, regaining his composure. "Where is this place anyway? I have never heard of it before. And you seriously want me to believe that witches and wizards exist?" his voice was rising. "Come on Roy, you can't believe in that. I always thought more of you." He turned from Roy, trudging towards the door, but halfway there, he slowed and half turned around.

"But, they have information about the stone, don't they?" Roy simply nodded and Ed walked back to the desk. "I promised Al I'd get his body back…we haven't had any leads in weeks. Maybe I should go. But I'm going by myself. I don't want anyone interfering with my research. When do I leave?"

Roy stood up from his desk, glad that the old Ed was back. He had been acting strange there for a minute. "If you wish to go, we leave tomorrow. Go back home and get your things packed; it's a long train ride to England. Be here at 5 tomorrow morning."

"Wait," Ed said, "We? You're not coming."

"I'm afraid Fullmetal, that I am indeed coming along."

---

Once Ed had left, Roy ran his hands through his hair again. I always thought more of you. he reflected back to what Ed had said. Where had that come from? He sighed yet again. This was indeed going to be a long day.
