My first FullMetal Alchemist fanfic. Ever.

Just a note, this is from the original anime, not brotherhood. Also from the movie.

Review please. I wanna know if this is any good or not.


For a moment.

It was only for a moment.

I saw her in front of me for the first time in years. All this time, I had been living in another world, where everyone was familiar, even though I honestly knew no one. I had even seemed to have met my brother, who soon became my best friend.

But her, I never saw.

That's why, when she stood there, right in front of me, I had a feeling of joy that I couldn't begin to describe. She simply smiled at me, seeming to be relieved that I was actually still alive.

I was glad. She worried about me, too.

I wanted to stay, oh, how I wanted to just stay with her a few moments longer.

Time didn't seem to let me, though.

Just as quickly as I ran into her, I left. Using my almost foreign-to-me alchemy, and with the help of my friends I hadn't seen since I crossed over, I won.

Yet at the same time, I lost.

I had to go back. I know I did.

I didn't get to say goodbye. And I knew that would probably make her mad.

Now, I'm back in the world of physics. Even if I'm with Al, it still feels strange without her.

I walked through the town, when she seemed to make her way to my thoughts again. I wondered over and over again, how is she?

Then, I saw her. The same shining blond hair, the same outfit she'd usually wear. The same piercings, the same... Everything.

"Winry?" I called out estatically.

She turned around, looking at me as if I were a complete stranger. Everything was the same but...

...I guess it wasn't really her.

And so she walked away, as any stranger would probably do. I sighed.

For a moment.

It was only for a moment.

That I thought I'd have her once again.
