Hii! Here's my new fanfic. Unfortunately for me, but fortunately for you, I don't own Fullmetal alchemist. That's why this is called a fanfic. Some stuff that I put in Ed's book is taken from a website called Animescience101 and I don't own it. It was really good material and I needed to use it, and I don't own it either. Thank you to the people who made that site for the use of it.
Chapter one
Edward Elric gazed out the window, bored. He was sitting in a car in the back seat, with Alphonse on his right. Ahead of him, in the driver's seat sat Colonel Roy Mustang, and in the passenger seat of the car was Jean Havoc. "Ughn... Remind me what we're doing here, again?" the blond teen groaned. "We," Roy started, in a mildly annoyed tone of voice, "are going to the North to check on a few minor things that the military needs to know, and when we get there, you two are you going to be checking on a lead on the Philosopher's stone. And you'll be leaving us alone and maybe I'll be able to find a beautiful woman that won't be being put off by two brats because they won't be around." "Wow... That was really..." " Blunt? To the point?" Havoc finished. "Well, yeah," Edward said, "plus, Colonel Mush-head, don't you like Hawkeye?" Roy's face turned the color of Ed's coat. "No! and that's not any of your business!" " Well, you kinda made it my business when you made that comment about beautiful women." He sighed and leaned his head against the window. "So when are we gonna be there, again?" " We just left, Fullmetal. Just wait. Since we're traveling by car, it'll probably take about a week, anyway." "Ugggghhnnn..." Ed groaned, "Why are we traveling by car, anyway? We should have taken the train.." " Because, the train is too public since we don't want to be the most obvious people there. It's supposed to be covert." Edward sighed dramatically and thumped his head against the back of the seat, bored. "Okay, well.. I brought a book I needed to read anyway," he mumbled. He brought the book up in front of his face and started to read.
Alchemy, It is the scientific technique of understanding the structure of matter, decomposing it, and then reconstructing it. If performed skillfully, it is even possible to create gold out of lead. However, as it is a science, there are some natural principles in place. Only one thing can be created from something else of a certain mass. This is the Principle of Equivalent Exchange. To begin with, there are three basic steps to performing a transmutation.
1 Comprehension: What are you doing and what are you doing it with.
2 Deconstruction: Breaking down the materials needed
3 Reconstruction: Putting everything back together
On top of this, there are two basic laws that rule every transmutation alchemists perform:
1 Law of conservation of mass: Matter and energy cannot be created or destroyed to the point of nonexistence
Edward looked up from his book and gazed out of the window. "Hey, Roy, I can eat a stick of beef jerky in under 3 seconds!" Havoc exclaimed. Edward facepalmed. Road trips did baaad things to people. This was going to be a looong trip, Edward could tell already.
You like? You don't like? Please review. This is my first FMA fanfic and I would really appreciate feedback, whether it's friendly advice and helpful criticism, or complaints, or even approval (haha), I still would really appreciate it. And don't skip reviewing because you think someone else will, or I'll go all Winry-with-a-wrench on you. :P
Thanks!
