Hello again readers! i think maybe one or two of you might have noticed that this was originally called "Tiger Waiting to be Tamed" but i found out there was another story with that name so i changed it.

Chapter 1! i promise its longer than the prologue and explains a fews questions.

Fern: not much longer, tsk tsk

Hush you

I don't own FMA! only Fern and anyone who cannon fodder.


I awoke in my dank cage to what I assumed was morning. Having not seen the light of day for nine years, I can't exactly have the luxury of checking a window. Windows? Where we're going we don't need windows.

I have been living under lab five for the past nine year after my "Old Man" took me to work one day, little did I know it was because I was going to be some sick experiment. The good 'ole basted had soon quit working here after he handed me over to the scientists. They were originally going to turn me into a tiger chimera, but then they got a better idea *sarcasm*. I am the first person to be crossed with an already made chimera.

From what I can tell you of the scientist talking and from personal experience, creating a chimera works like this: in the term of alchemic transmutations, animal don't have souls or have very weak ones but strong instincts. Because of this most animal chimeras fail or don't live that long after they are made. But humans have very strong souls but little to no instincts left in them. When a human and animal are combined, the human should must wrestle with the animal instinct for who takes control of the body (this is all and internal struggle while the two bodies are merged). If the animal wins, it becomes a human chimera, where it is more beast than human. If the human wins, it becomes a chimera human, where the human still obtains some characteristics of the beast. Needless to say I won that fight.

I curled up in the small cage I was in, my naked body resting against the bars of the cage. I looked down at myself, I bet if I could see myself I would look dam terrifying to any regular human. A long lizard-like tail protrude from above my butt, making sitting or lying down hard sometimes. It was covered in pitch black scales and has sort of fin/spikes at the end of it. Two long, bat wings hung limply from my back as they too were black and leathery. I ran my nail/claws against the side of the cage, making music to my ears among the screeches from the other chimera humans. I sighed as I could see the faint outline of the door in the dark; the guard was pacing outside the door. I could see quite well in the dark, and could see the new person they had thrown in here earlier.

Experiment 242 was it…? I wondered as the boy shivered in the corner, it looked like he had been crossed with some fish thing and it had ended badly. He had huge fish lips and clearly seen gills on the side of his neck, they were gasping for oxygen for his scaly body. I knew the boy wouldn't live and soon they would be in here to kill him. Watching fellow chimera's die was always rough on the rest of us. They were people we could relate too and trust, even if they were new. We had all been there and some were still stuck.

The door swung open and the guard and a scientist walked in. my cage was unlocked and I was led out as the solider aimed his gun at the fish-boy. There was a bang at the exact moment the metal door closed. I couldn't hear it over the door's noise but I knew that boy was dead. We entered a room with a large alchemic circle and lots of scientists. I was instructed to lie down in the circle. Yeah, because I'm going to sit there like a good little girl while you turn me into a monster.

"With all due respect sir, screw you" I said with a straight face as the scientist who had asked me turned red. I wasn't sure if it was out of anger or embarrassment; either way, it was funny as hell to watch their fluster expressions. I felt a sharp pain in my back and saw one of the guards had shot me with a tranquilizer dart. "How rude!" I said, acting all offended and then I passed out.


I woke up later in my cage with my head feeling like it had been run over with a truck. My ears hurt, wait my ears? I softly touched the now long and fuzzy ears that were on the side of my head. Great, now they were even fucking with my face. I would have kept looking for changes but suddenly I heard an explosion upstairs, right above our room. Moments later soldiers were storming into our room and shouting things around the room. All of this was very disorienting for my ears and I curled up in a ball in my cage. I heard the lock click on my cage and I looked up to see a man with raven hair and black eyes staring at me. He smirked and offered his hand. Taking advantage of the situation, I kicked the smirking weirdo in the face and proceeded to run like hell down the long corridors of the lab.

I HAVE NO FUCKING CLUE WHERE I'M GOING! I screamed in my mind as I kept running down the twisting and seemingly never ending hallways. The shout of soldiers could be heard behind me so I decided to see just how fast I could run. Running like truth was behind me, made it up a pair of stair and discovered I was on the roof. Well shit.

As I looked behind I saw the man I had face kicked earlier at the head of the group. "I am cornel Roy Mustang, the Flame Alchemist. Who are you?" he asked in a very bold and demanding tone. Now it was my turn to smirk.

"Congratulations, that means nothing to me man. And your part of the military, you should know what experiment I am." I retorted as he stood there looking very pompous and arrogant. The look on his face was priceless in his moment of understanding I was a chimera. "You're a chimera?" he said slowly, as if he couldn't wrap his head around that fact. At this point all the soldiers raised their guns at me. "Aww, you hurt my feeling." I mocked at the soldiers.

"Give the boy a prize!" I said cheerfully and clapping my hands. "Have been for 9 years now and am about as screwed up as you can be."

"What is your name?" he repeated, more forceful now and clearly irritated with me. "What chimera are you exactly?"

"Oh course, where are my manners?" I exclaimed "I am experiment 666: the Dragon Chimera" and with that I jumped off the building.


Yay! chapter 1 done and its over 1000 words.

hahaha, i hate that Usless Alchemist and he deserved a good face-kicking.

PLEASE REVIEW AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK. FLAMES WELCOME!
