New World Chapter 2:
I don't own any of the characters.
Thank you all that put this story on fav, alert, and reviewed it made me feel more confident with this story.
"Oh man, that was an amazing dinner!" Gilbert exclaimed, leaning back with his hands behind his head," I thought mein bruder was a good cook, but you have topped him."
Gracia covered her mouth hiding a giggle because of his statement.
"Thank you," she said after her giggling.
Hughes examines Gilbert, still trying to figure him out….he wasn't Ishvalan. He looks away and sees the time.
"Well Elisia it's time for beddy bye time," he cried loudly.
He saw his daughters eyes grow big.
"But Pappa, I don't want to go to bed,"
"So adorable," he whispered with a tear down his cheek, "But you have to, Gilbert will be here tomorrow."
"Okay Daddy."
Gracia gets up taking Elisia hand, knowing her husband wanted to talk to Gilbert a lone.
"Come now, give daddy a kiss good night, he needs to talk to Gilbert," she tells Elisia.
Elisia walks up to her daddy and gives him a kiss on the cheek.
"Good night daddy," she said sweetly with a smile.
"Good night sweety," he replied back.
They left the kitchen and Hughes looks over at Gilbert.
"I know you figure that I'm not an Ishvalan…whoever they are," he mutters under his breathe.
Hughes crosses his arms, leaning back a little.
"I kind of figured because you don't know what an Ishvalan is. So where are from?" he asked softly.
Gilbert looks out the window seeing his reflection. His hair seems longer lighter and his eyes the same color. He was still wearing the same clothes from when he died. Light blue shirt with blue jeans. He in haled then exhaled; running his hands through his hair.
"I'm from another dimension, yet it doesn't make since I died….so I should be dead," he answered sincerely.
Hughes cups his chin thinking.
"Maybe Ed and Al have an idea….." he thought.
Gilbert keeps looking out the window.
"I'll tell you what I saw before I died, that might help maybe," he whispered, but Hughes heard all of it.
Gilbert stands in a place surrounded with white before him was this odd giant door. It slowly opened up and black hands grabbed him and started pulling him inside. He dug his fingernails into the white ground trying to stay out of the black abyss. He had to admit even if it wasn't awesome, he was afraid of whatever it was…. After so much work trying to stay out, he finally succumbed once he entered the doors closed behind him,. Hughes eyes narrowed slightly.
"Fullmetal, is still here….tomorrow he will meet Gilbert," he reflected.
He looks at Gilbert who was still looking out the window.
"Gilbert," he stated, Gilbert looked back at him, "Tomorrow, you will meet a friend of mine. Tell him what you told me and do not leave one single detail out. Now, I should probably explain who Ishvalans are. They are connected by a common belief in Ishval that Earth God is the true god of all creation. Their appearance is white hair, red eyes, and tan skin…which you don't have tan skin.
Gilbert nods his head at Hughes.
"Ja, I'm Albino I can't tan."
Hughes gets up and goes upstairs moments later; he comes back down with a change of clothes for Gilbert and a hat.
"Here this is for you, for tomorrow," he stated well handing Gilbert clothes.
Gilbert looks at the hat, the belt, blue jeans, and light green shirt. He noticed the man was already walking away to get some sleep. Gilbert thought for a second.
"I've change….but how…." He chewed on it for a little bit," thank you."
Hughes turns around and smiles at him.
"No problem, you'll sleep in the guess room, Gracia is fixing that up right now. So come follow me," he explained.
Gilbert gets up and follows Hughes upstairs observing the walls. Light tan color paint with some pictures of family members and a couple of Elisia. They passed doors that he assumed where Elisia, Mr. and Mrs. Hughes. They entered the bedroom door parallel to the second door in the hallway. This room had a light blue paint to it, no pictures of family. Only a bookshelf, closet, dresser and a bed with dark blue blankets and white pillowcase.
"I don't know how I can repay you," he said softly…."What hell has gotten over me!" he thought loudly.
"Don't worry about it Gilbert," replied Gracia kindly.
Gracia left closing the door behind her. Gilbert walks to the bed and sits down running his hands through his white hair, then touching his iron cross.
"Mein gott, what is going on?" he questions himself, well getting up and turning the lights off.
He lay down closing his eyes.
Dream World
He stands looking right at Ludwig, who was standing in front of the giant door.
"West, you couldn't have died," he muttered out.
Not reply, Ludwig put out his hand for his older brother to take it, but something black and sharp stabbed him in the back. He started falling to the ground with blood pouring out of his mouth, from his eyes and the chest.
"B-B-Bruder!" yelled Gilbert.
He shoots out of bed drench in sweat breathing heavy. He looks over at the clock it reads 5:30. He gets up deciding it was a good time to get up and take a shower. He left the room already seeing lights on down stairs, Gilbert entered the bathroom. He examines himself in mirror something change about me, but what. He feels odd like something was taken away from him. He undresses, entering the shower, standing in front of the warm water letting it hit his back and his hair.
"What has happened to me, something has….wait…..I'm human, plan old human, but how can I test that theory," he pondered over it.
After the shower, he looked back in the mirror, fully clothed with the hat on. He didn't know how bias these people are towards Ishvalans and he didn't want to find out. He went down stairs entering the kitchen; the first thing that hit him was the smell of pancakes. He takes a seat without saying a word. Today he didn't feel like talking all that much, just sitting in silence after that dream. When breakfast was over Hughes and Gilbert left, well Elisia was waving bye, bye to them.
He observes his surroundings, walking past a flower shop, tool shop, tailor, and the list goes on. They finally came upon Central Command he was amazed at how big it was, entering it; well walking through the hall Ametrian Soldiers gave him odd glances trying to figure who he was. Hughes stopped in front a wooden door, he twists the knob and they both enter. Their heads down and working on paper work well a dark haired, dark eyed, boyish looks; the kind of thing that if he had a woman….he would loss her in a heartbeat. The door was pushed open slamming against the wall behind him only seconds later, he turns around and sees a short kid wearing red and black clothing. Gilbert figured that short kid was Edward. He then looks up, seeing a giant suit of armor, that must have been Alphonse.
"Note to self, have to thank Maes for telling me who's, who," he noted.
A small smile came on his face.
"Wow kid you are short," he stated covering his smirk with his hands.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY, I'M NOT SO SMALL THAT YOU COULD CRUSH ME WITH YOUR FEET!" Ed yelled at the top of his voice.
Everyone in the room cringed from the screaming Ed. Gilbert rolled his eyes at the kid.
"Man, this kids temper reminds of Romano's," he thought to himself.
"Hey, Edward sorry about calling you short, now take a deep breath and calm down…" Gilbert said softly trying to calm him down.
Edward ignored him and went on with his little rant. Gilbert startsfuming, he lifteshis hand up hitting the top of Edwards head. He fell on the floor for a couple seconds seeing stars, that's when Gilbert felt pain where the crown jewels of Prussia are located. He fell to the ground and holds himself with tears on the corner of his eyes. He looks up at the shrimp giving him the death glare.
"Now, now Ed you don't have to kick the man," voiced Hughes, he walking up to Gilbert and helping him up.
Ed finally calmed down looking over at Gilbert.
"So this is the guy that you told me about late last night?" questioned Ed.
"Yes, Gilbert take your hat and sun glasses off," he command Gilbert to do.
Gilbert looks over at Hughes, Hughes gives him an approving nod. He takes off the hat and sunglasses, showing everyone including Ed his full appearance.
"I know what you are thinking that I'm Ishvalan, but you are mistaken….I'm Prussian….I just died in my dimension and well now I'm hear thanks to this huge door that drag me to your world," he states loud enough for everyone to hear him in the room.
"That's the gate, I've seen it. How you got here might, just be explained with Alchemy. I thought of this theory last night after Maes got off the phone with me. The way a alchemist could have brought you here is, the law of equivalent exchange which Maes explained to you this morning. They used a human life in exchange for you Gilbert, but I don't have a reason why they would want someone from another dimension. Not unless they were just testing to see if they could, well in that case the test worked.
Gilbert started rubbing his chin.
"From what Maes could explain to me about Alchemy…that wouldn't make since because I represent many people or I used to. Then again, when I think more of it, once I did state to Ludwig that I felt like inside I was slowly turning into a human and dying, could it be in the last few seconds of my life I became human. That would mean they would have to been very precise in timing a person dies every what 8 seconds…..I got a headache to much thinking," he mused to himself.
"That makes since Ed," he muttered.
Ed Grinned at him.
"I knew it would," Ed thought.
"WHAT!" the whole room said in union.
Authors Note: Okay I hope my chapter does not suck and I didn't disappointed anyone. All right things where kind of explained I am just thinking of who used alchemy to bring Gilbert to Ed's dimension. I was thinking of Father, but I don't know I'm still organizing everything.
