I do not own Vampire Kisses, Twilight, Fullmetal Alchemist or any of the characters from said stories (except for Dr. Acula, Shadow, Sunny, Aaron, Anna-Maria, Synthia, Oliver and Lizzy) and am just making a harmless gender bender for the series. I didn't see any when I looked on Google, which confused me since there are gender benders of almost every other fanfiction.

Chapter 20

Alexia's POV

Alexia's Time Left: 3 weeks

Sabrina's Pregnancy: 6.25 months

-ONE WEEK LATER-

It has been one week since I gave birth to the triplets and so far they had proven to be quite the handful. Aaron was quiet, thoughtful, and so far quite intelligent. He always seemed to understand our conversations, I could tell by the look of understanding in his eyes. Anna-Maria was my little girl, who would cry bloody murder if anyone came to her aid but me. As soon as I would pick her up, she would calm down, giggle and smile up at me. Synthia, on the other hand, was already full of mischief and curiosity, a dangerous combination on the best of days.

All three of them have been showing bits of their natural vampire powers, the ones that everyone has a chance to do, but the only one able to have some control was Aaron. Synthia and Anna-Maria had no control of when their powers would emerge. Anna-Maria had a strong grip of natural elements such as water, earth, fire, and air. They seem to happen with certain moods. Happiness causes flowers to grow around wherever she is, frustration causes a storm cloud to form over her head with small flashes of electricity, sadness causes a rain cloud over her, and anger causes something to spontaneously combust. Synthia has a strong hold of telekinesis and loves to have things orbit her or moved into her reach but if she gets angry things will storm around the room or go flying across the room. Aaron, surprisingly, has astonishing control over several powers such as forming and shaping his aura along with its solidity, hair and eye colours to any shade, even ones only I can register, invisibility, and transforming into other forms such as a bat, wolf pup, small dragon, etc. Each of his forms is a very young version of what it will be when it is older and he has all the powers it would have at that stage in life but like any new born he can't move very much if at all. I believe it won't be long until he does though, vampire may be stronger than humans but they don't pick that skill up until age 5 and until then they are like regular humans but with powers.

I was in the living room with Aaron who was laying my arms creating shapes in front of his face then laughing as his aura changed into that shape. The girls were up in the nursery while the Elrics were in the library again. Aaron's hair was currently looked like flames and his eyes were fuchsia. Suddenly, his eyes went midnight black and his hair went ghost white. Concern immediately washed over me but before I could call Raven, his aura brought mine to life, wrapping me in my chocolate brown aura that had laces of fire truck red in it, and they connected. His thoughts were in my mind which is something he shouldn't have been able to do for at least 9 more years.

"Don't be afraid, I just delivering a message from another dimension." Aaron thought to me.

"Aaron? Is that you speaking?" I asked.

"No, I have been called many name. I am the world. I am the universe. I am god. I am truth. I am all. I am one. I have momentarily taken control of your boy so I can get you to pass on a message to the Elrics for me. Go to them."

I stood up, carrying my Aaron in my arms, and walked up to the library to find the Ed and Al looking through more books in the library.

"Hey, guys," I said uncertainly, "your message is here."

"Our message from who?" Ed asked.

"Truth," was all I said. Immediately, I had their full and undivided attention.

I watched Aaron's lime green aura go and awaken theirs before combining with them. Ed's aura was gold while Al's was silver, two of the rarest auras I know of. After a few moments of silence, their auras separated and Aaron's hair and eyes changed back to the colours they had been before, as if nothing had ever happened. He giggled, making spit bubbles as he did, before yawning and falling asleep in my arms.

"What did the Truth say?" I whispered to them, careful not to wake Aaron.

"He gave us a riddle. To get back to the place from which you came, you must find a man who has is all the same. He has powers beyond one's beliefs, whose teacher loves to lie in the reefs. But a word of caution to this verse, he was born with a curse. Brought from the dead by a lie, you must seek help from the one who commands the cat's eye."

"Well, I have no idea what that means but I would ask Nick if Ash would know, his friend who hasn't had an easy life and is one of the fates." I suggested. Walking out of the room, I headed down to the nursery to lay Aaron down for his nap.

Ed's POV

"He has a good point brother, maybe we should ask Nick." Al said before the cell phone Raven had let us borrow started to ring. He turned it to me and showed me the number which only said UNAVAILABLE.

"Let me answer it." I said boldly to which he only nodded before handing me the phone.

"Hello?" I answered.

"Hey, Ed. It's Nick. Ash told me to call you guys at this number, said to pass on a message to you and your brother." Nick said.

"What did he say?" I asked.

"He said is the one and to meet him in the gazebo in the back yard at 4:44am. He also said that this would make sense to you and that I shouldn't ask any questions. Although, in this case I have to ask just one question, does this make any sense to you?"

"Yes it does Nick, thank you." I said and watched Al's eyes widen.

"See ya." Nick said before hanging up. I looked at the clock; it was currently 4:30am.

"Come on we have to be in the back yard." I said to Al. We ran out of the room and into the nursery to get Alexia.

"Alexia, we need you to show us the gazebo so we can get home. And we don't have much time." I rushed out. She put Aaron down and kissed Raven on the cheek before rushing out of the room with us. We ran to the back yard and there stood the gazebo in all its gothic glory. I looked at the time on the phone and it said 4:43am before switching to 4:44am a few second later.

There was a flash of light and then Ash was standing in the center of the gazebo. In his had were three small necklaces, one with a colour changing sun on it that almost looked like how oil does when it hits a puddle, another was a full moon that had an exact image of what the weather was like right now, and the third was an odd shaped symbol that consisted of a triangle that had a circle inside it and a line going through both.

"Before I help you guys, I believe congratulations are in order. I got specially made necklaces for each of them; Aaron's is the sun and chances colour to whatever he wants, Anna-Maria's is the moon and tells he the current weather so she will know what she can do best with the elements outside, and Synthia's is to help guide her, she will know when that time has come." Ash said; how he knew all this stuff astonished me but I thanked him for the gift and gladly accepted them. "They have all been enchanted by Lizzy so that the chain length will grow as they do so they will always fit perfectly."

"Also," he continued, "I got these for you." He handed me a box, each one consisting of a bag with a different name and colour on each of them. "They are amulets that allow you to speak to one another no matter the distance, this way you guys can keep in touch." There was one for Jagger, Scarlet, Onyx, Raven, Sabrina, Luna, Sunny, Shadow, Jacob, Claudia, Aaron, Anna-Maria, Synthia and I. Ed and Al, I'm assuming had one as well. "If someone is trying to reach you it will warm up and will automatically wake you up if you are asleep. They also have the length enchantment and suit your individualities."

I opened my bag and found a necklace that was a skinny rock like ring that layed sideways with a little circle on top for the chain which was nice leather, similar to an eight but the top circle was smaller and facing the wrong direction. I looked through the ring and was amazed that I saw everything as it would look like during a sunny day but it didn't hurt my eyes. I saw Ed and Al pulling out their necklaces as well. Ed's is a piece of glass with a weird symbol drawn in a circle. "It will allow you to do any transmutation you want with it. The Truth said it would give you back your alchemy but it is only giving you back the basic level, so you will need to use circles again. Just clap your hands then grab your necklace and hold it in the direction you want." Ash explained. Al's is a stone as well and had a carving of a tribal shaped dragon on it. "Hold yours onto the skin above your heart, Al." Thinking that was weird, Al removed his shirt anyways because Ash hasn't been wrong yet and did as he was told. Immediately after the stone touched his skin, it turned bright red and burned him. He fell to the ground screaming and clutching his chest in pain.

"Al!" Ed shouted and rushed over to him "What did you do to my brother?" He snarled at Ash.

"Watch and you'll see. Trust me he won't die and the pain will stop in a second." Ash replied.

True to his word, Al stopped screaming a moment later and the stone returned back to its black colour. Ed picked up the rock and saw the symbol had moved off of the stone and was now a black tattoo on Al's chest.

"What happened?" Al asked softly.

"You both can now control all elements, thanks to Truth and this dragon is a companion who will guide you along with your brother on how to use this knowledge to your advantage. She'll show you how to bend light and darkness to your will and use it in battles. She will also help you fight in battles. All you have to do to summon her is say 'Manifest, Destiny.'" The tattoo turned into black smoke and flew off his body and it solidified into a solid being who is a girl about our age. She stood at about 5'8" with long, straight ginger hair, cat like green eyes, lots of freckles, fire truck red lipstick and wearing a blood red topless shirt that is able to defy gravity and keep her large boobs up and well supported, a black spiked belt with a skull shaped buckle, a blood red skirt that reached mid thigh on her left and mid calf on her right, fishnet stockings and black boots.

The unnerving part of her was the dark chocolate coloured horns coming out of her head, going backward in a wave sort of shape and the matching coloured tail that looked like a devils tail from a Halloween costume but brown.

"Hi, I'm Destiny." She said happily in a bubbly tone. Waving her hand, she smiled as if she had just won the lottery.

"Return, Destiny." Ash said. She pouted and went back to smoke and then went back to his Al's body. The dragon crawled around a bit, which caused Al to squirm, before settling down near his collar bone on his right. "You'll get used to it." Ash said after seeing Al's discomfort. "Ready to head home?"

"Yeah, I think so." Al said standing up as if nothing had happened.

A giant gate opened up behind Ash and the doors opened automatically, Ed and Al rushed in and the doors closed behind them. Ash vanished a moment later. I returned to the house to give everyone their gifts.

Raven's necklace looked like an infinity symbol and allowed her to split her consciousness to two places at one, so she could be sleeping at home but also out visiting with Becky in a temporarily solid form but when she woke up she would transfer back to her body with all the memories of the day but no mental exhaustion or negative effects. (Note: I am about to explain what each necklace looks like and what it does if you would like to skip feel free)

Jagger's looked like a key with bat wings on it and allowed him to see what the outcome of any business made decisions would be with any of his ideas.

Onyx's looked like the black gem in one of her fangs and allowed her psychic abilities to increase phenomenally so she is able to protect her family better.

Scarlet's looked like a live flame and allowed her to now use flame alchemy if she was to be attacked, it also included the knowledge on how to use it in a little note.

Sabrina's looked like a guitar and allowed her to change the sound of any instrument she was playing so she could hear the song as if it was played by that instrument.

Luna's looked like a flamingo coloured hawk feather and allowed her to change her hair and eye colour like Aaron, since she couldn't before.

Sunny's looked like a dog collar and allowed him to control his vampire powers as if he had been born with them.

Claudia's looked like a Valentine 's Day heart that said "Bite me" and was baby blue. It allowed her to switch between genders like she would transforming into a bat, in case she every missed being a guy.

Shadow's was a neon splatter painted peace symbol and allowed read human's minds with ease so she would always be up to date on the latest gossip.

Jacob's was a glass necklace that allowed him to see any wolf packs in the near area. He left town shortly after I gave the necklace to him.

(End of description)

Raven and I had decided that we would give the children their power enhancing necklaces now and their communicating/special necklaces later when they are older.

-BACK IN AMESTRIS-

Ed and Al appeared standing in their kitchen and everything looked as if they had never left.

"I'm home and I brought apples for pie." Winry, Ed's wife, shouted as she came in the door.

"Winry!" They shouted and ran over both hugging her tightly.

"What's with you guys? You act like you haven't seen me in months. I was only gone an hour." Winry said. Al pulled out of the hug but Ed went from hugging to passionate kissing.

"Have we got a story for you." Ed said afterwards with a huge grin on his face.

-FIVE YEARS LATER, IN DULLSVILLE-

It has been five years since Oliver Percival Camden was born along with the triplets. We had given them their necklaces for their birthday. Aaron's was a small yin-yang symbol but red with a white center and it helped shield the immense powers he released so he would go undetected by predators but still have the ability to use all of them. Anna-Maria's was a white replica of Aaron's and had a black center it allowed her to use another vampire's special ability but she had to be touching them to do it, she often used my colour perspectives to help her draw. Synthia's was the black yin-yang but it had a red center and it allowed her to gain the powers of any super hero, she has often climbed up walls like Spiderman to try and get out of trouble. When all three of the necklaces were joined, it allowed them to act and move as one but only for thirty minutes.

I was sitting on the couch in the home theater, back in his male body, with Raven cuddling up to me, while Dracula played on the screen. We had both seen it a million times and could quote every line but we still loved it. Anna-Maria was sitting on the other side of me, Synthia beside her, and Aaron was on the other side of Raven. Two giant bowls of buttered popcorn sat on Anna-Maria's and Raven's laps. All of us were munching on it as the movie progressed.

"Sir, you have a visitor at the door." said Jameson who had poked his head through the closed door.

"Alright, I'll be right down."

As I stood up, Raven made sure the popcorn didn't tip and they continued watching the movie. I snuck past them quickly to make sure they didn't miss too much of the movie.

Walking through our mansion on Benson Hill, I admired all the family portraits that were hung up on the walls. Raven had outdone herself over the years. She had turned my haunted, spider filled mansion into one of pure gothic beauty. She was truly amazing.

When I got downstairs, I saw Jagger pacing in the foyer. I had expected Sebastian to come running to me, as he usually does, but not Jagger. He looked the same as he had just the other day, from his blood red tipped white hair to his combat boots. A look of worry was on his face, causing me to worry. Something about this was eerily familiar.

"Scarlet's pregnant and I'm the father." he blurted out. We both froze not expecting him to be so direct.

"So I am guessing you came here because you want to know what to prepare for?" I asked, getting a slight nod. "Well, I was a mess but let me tell you this, when she says something, she doesn't exaggerate. If she says her back hurts so bad it felt like she had a ton of bricks dumped on her, she is right. Oh and do everything she says no matter what, no matter how ridiculous it sounds. Does that help?"

"God, you sound like a woman."

"I was one for 10 months remember? Remember what I acted like?" We both shivered at the memories. I had been very nasty while I was pregnant with the triplets.

"Take my advice," I continued, "it will help, trust me. Anyways, when did this happen?"

"My birthday, two weeks ago, she just found out today."

"Let me guess, she was your present?"

"Yep, she was nicely wrapped too, I couldn't resist."

"Well, maybe you could bring Scarlet over and we could talk about it as a group. Women know a lot about pregnancies from what their mom's tell them, apparently, so Raven knows and I've experienced it. Would that help at all?"

"That would be great and it would make us feel a lot better. Thanks, man. Oh, and don't forget about Sebastian's covenant ceremony next week, you said you'd be best man."

"I'll be there."

We shared a short, manly hug before he left and I returned upstairs. Wow, this was so unexpected. I wonder if the kid will have red and white hair naturally. That would be something but you never know what could happen during a vampire pregnancy I found out.

"Who was that?" Raven asked when I had reclaimed my seat.

"One of our friends who is about to become a father," I replied with mystery.

She gave me a look that said, don't play this game with me, now tell me.

"Jagger's going to be a dad and wanted some advice."

Her jaw hit the floor and the look on her face had been priceless. Obviously she was just as shocked as I had been and had, also, been expecting Sebastian. Soon, the shock was replaced by joy knowing that her friend was pregnant.

The movie ended soon after, so we all went and got ready for bed. Raven and I tucked the girls in before heading to our own coffin. I pulled Raven to a stop before she got into the coffin and gave her the most passionate kiss I could. I was rewarded with a kiss that was just as passionate and it sent chills through my bones.

"He's not the only one about to become a father." She said as she grabbed my hand and placed it below her belly button. I looked at her shocked.

"You're…" was all I could get out but she looked at me with understanding. "Three weeks," was all she replied. I hugged her firmly but not too hard that I'd hurt the baby. I kissed her and gave her the most amazing kiss I had ever given her, pouring all my emotion into it, and maybe a little bit of sugar. (Pour some sugar on me!).

"I love you," I said.

"I love you too," she replied.

We climbed into the coffin and closed the lid. I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow, feeling nothing but joy coursing through my veins, completely unaware of the things still to come.

-ELSEWHERE-

"What do you want from me?" Trevor whimpered as he was held up against a building in a dark alley.

"You and I seem to have a common enemy. What's say you and I join forces?' the mysterious man asked.

"Alright. I'm Trevor by the way." Trevor said as the man put him down.

"Styker," the man said shaking Trevor's extended hand while grinning like a maniac.

-END-

It is done! I had lot's of fun writing this, let me know what I should do in the sequel, if you want me to make one. Sorry if this one seemed long or kind of boring. I just liked including what their necklaces looked like and what they did. Took me a while to figure out how to finish the story.
