Come to me in dreams, and then
One saith, I shall be well again,
For then the night will more then pay
The hopeless longing of the day.
Nay, come not thou in dreams, my sweet,
With shadowy robes and silent feet,
And with the voice, and with the eyes,
That greet me in a soft surprise.
Last night, last night, in dreams we met,
And how, to-day, shall I forget,
or how, remembering, restrain,
Mine incommunicable pain?
Nay, where thy land and people are,
Dwell thou remote, apart, afar,
Nor mingle with the shapes that sweep,
the melancholy ways of sleep.
But if, perchance, the shadows break,
If dreams depart, and men awake,
If face to face at length we see,
Be thine the voice to welcome me.

Epilogue
Alphonse was back to normal now (he has a human body) . The children, Kyo and Kyoko, were trouble makers for their parents Roy and Edward at the ages of three. They laughed as Hughes brought over Elysia (7), who fell in love with Kyo at first sight. The poor toddler chased by the older girl, cried for his mother. "Mommy! Mommy!" The three year old cried out and clinged to his mother's leg. Edward bent down and picked up the poor boy. "What's wrong, Kyo-kun?" Edward asked in a motherly tone. "Elysia wants me to be her boyfriend!" The boy whined, and Hughes chocked on his drink while Roy glared at Hughes.
"Honey, do you even know what a boyfriend is?" Ed asked her son. Kyoko, being the reltivly quiet one, spoke up. "Elysia-chan said that a boyfriend was someone who a girl loved and gives kissies too!" Edward blinked and looked at her daughter, who clinged to her father's leg. Edward set Kyo down and patted his head. "Don't worry, Elysia doesn't mean it." Edward said with a loving smile and watched as her son was tackled by the happy-go-lucky Elysia. "Kyo! Have my babies!" Ed and Roy's eyes widen, while Hughes choked on his drink. "Damn! What do they teach you in first grade!" Edward complained while Roy yelled at Hughes. Hughes tried to get air, inbetween the choking and the yelling.
Elysia blinked and hugged the poor Kyo. Kyoko looked up at her father, wondering if what Elysia said was wrong, then asked. "Daddy, What did Elysia mean by "Have my babies?" Where do babies come from anyways?" Edward hit her head and glared at Hughes. "I didn't even know she knew that kind of stuff!" Hughes exclaimed. Roy sighed and looked at his daughter. "Kyoko, dear, Can we talk about this 10 years from now." Kyoko nodded and hugged her father.
Kyo got away from the hyper-crazed Elysia, and was hiding in a tree. "Kyo-koi! Come back!" Elysia called out. Kyo sweatdropped. Edward rolled her eyes and smiled at Kyo, who looked so much like her when she was his age. She felt Roy hug her. "It's a mini-Ed. Don't you think so?" Roy jokes and earned a elbow in the ribs. Roy laughed as the children played in the yard.
Kyoko was quiet and beautiful with her dark colored eyes and shoulder length hair. Kyo looked exactly like Ed when she was three. Which Al and Roy always made jokes about. Ed sighed and looked at her family. Winry was pregnant with Al's kid, and she was more moody then Ed when she was pregnant. Everything seemed perfect.
They were living near Ed's old family home. The family home that was burned down, so many years ago. Burned down because the old Ed thought that he'd never have a family again. Not the loving kind in the least. Now here 'she' is living with Futher Mustang, her husband. Her brother with his own body and two beautiful twins, that reminded her of Al and herself when they were kids.
You can truly call this a happy ending. But like they say. All endings are a beginning to something more! All happy endings are never stay as a happy ending.
The End?
