I Don't Own FullMetal Alchemist.


Al striped down to his underwear and turned off the hanging light, making the room pitch black. Knowing his room inside and out, walked easily to his bed, and tried to sleep, but sleep eluded him that night. Images of the carnival he had been in earlier that day haunted him. After a long, long while, he finily drifted off into an uneasy slumber.


Opening her eyes, Nina yawned. She closed them to stretch her arms above her head, Ed in hand. She looked at Ed and said "Good Morning." to the doll when she heard a creak. She shoved Ed under the blanket and turned her head to the door slowly.

A girl stood there, she looked to be about Nina's age if not a little older. A black eye peaked into the room, and a smile gazed at her.

"You don't have to hide it from me." She said. "I won't tell if you don't tell."

"Who are you?" Nina asked hesitantly.

"I'm Mei Chang. But you can call me Mei you want." Mei said. "Can I come in?"

"Uh huh." Nina replied sitting up, the blanket covering her legs. Mei sat down next to Nina. They sat in silence for a little bit while Ed sat in her lap. Mei looked at her for a bit, trying to figure out what to say.

"So, what's your name?" Mei asked.

"Nina."

"Oh? That's a pretty name." Mei said smiling at her.

"Where's my daddy?" Nina asked, looking up at Mei.

"When can I go home?" Tears now trickled down Nina's face. Nina wanted to go home so badly she could hardly stand it. Mei sighed and looked away before sighing once more.

"Well, you see, this is a big game. A big game of Hide-N-Seek. You, me, even Al are hiding. Everyone here is hiding from everyone. So we have to stay put in order keep everyone, including your daddy, from finding us. And your daddy's working really hard on trying to find you. Everyone that's hiding can work together to keep out of sight. And everyone who's trying to find us can work together to try to find us." Mei said wiping the tears from Nina's eyes.

"Oh. Do I have to play?" Nina asked, rubbing her eyes a little, carrying Ed up to her face.

"Yeah. But who knows how long this game is going to last! It may end soon." Mei said, "So cheer up! It's time for breakfast!" Mei said hopping off the mattress, extending her hand.

"Ok." Nina sad, trying to smile.


The breakfast table was very quiet. No one spoke, even Nina, the table chatter box, didn't feel the need to speak to anyone about anything. Everyone pasted around plates full of scrambled eggs, toast, and pancakes.

At the table, Nina only recognized 3 of the 10 people sitting at the table. She knew Mei(Who sat on her right), and Al( who sat across from her), the woman how cut her hair, Lust?(who sat at the far end of the table). The other people who sat at the table, starting from the far left-side of the table sat, a palm tree, a kid who looked like an airplane driver, Al, a pretty black-haired woman, Lust(if that was her name).

On the right side of the table sat, short haired woman, a mean-looking nerd, Nina, Mei, an elderly man with an eye-patch.

Nina though the old man look familiar, but she didn't know where she had seen him.

The room was cement, a torn up rug sat under the table on the concrete floor. There was only five lights in the room, one on each wall and one hanging on the celling.

Nina had barely touch her food when the Palm Tree stood up.

"Ok, breakfast is over! Go back to your rooms!" The tree barked; hunched over the table, hands holding him up. Everyone quickly fled the room. The mean-looking nerd and the Airplane Driver where the first to leave, hand in hand. May took Nina's hand in her's and they left. Al ushered all the kids out of the room. The only one's still there when Nina looked back was the Palm Tree, the short-haired woman, Lust, the black-haired woman, and the old man.


Mei left Nina in her room, and told her to stay there. To not leave unless she was told to by her, Al, or an adult. When Mei entered her room she shut the door with a sigh, and slid down the door.

She hated that she had lied to Nina when she asked about her dad. Mei had been there, in this hell, for nearly as long as Al. They took her when she had just arrived in Amestris. The only reason she hadn't escaped yet, using Alkahestry was because they had Xiao-Mei somewhere. She had her suspicions that they had killed the little panda, but she had to make sure of that before escaping without her.

She had convinced the Homunculi not to cut her hair, telling them that no one would know her, since she came to Amestris alone, which may not've been the best thing to say, but oh well.

Mei walked over to her bed. Her room had a wooden bed frame, her sheets where a light pink. A plexy glass mirror sat on the wall. A desk sat in a corner with a picture of the scenery over it. The hand drawn picture is of the Xing country side. Another hand drawn picture of Xiao-Mei is on the mirror, a corner covered by the mirror's frame.

Mei sat on her bed, leaned down and pulled out a make shift journal and opened it up to the previous entry. She walked to her desk, continuing to read the entry. She sat down, turned the page, and began to write.
