9. Almost
He almost made it. That's what he says, that's what drives him mad. He almost managed to complete a perfect human transmutation. What went wrong? Why didn't it work? He pores constantly over his father's work, trying to see if it'll reveal any more clues. Besides, it makes him so much closer to his father.
And then he meets her. The girl with dark hair and pale skin, and bright blue eyes. She reminds him of himself, with her emotionless façade. With the way she tries to push him away and seems almost afraid to admit the truth.
It is because of her… that he stops. He stops risking himself, trying to bring his father back. Because now, she's here. And if he fails again, he doesn't want to leave her behind. He almost made it. But then he met her.
