Chapter One
Author: Ko-Toni
Rating: T
Genre: Romance/ Drama
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the 'Full Metal Alchemist' series, If I did I wouldn't be here.
Warnings: Right now there really isn't much to worry about. It is simply light Shounen-Ai for the first few chapters.
Notes: Well, This fan fiction first was put out on my 'Gaia Online'
journal back in this past March. I loved this fan fiction but I couldn't
write anything to save my life. But now I have done some little editing
and fixing up so I could but it up on
I'm happy with they way it came out.
Oh, And this takes place after the movie. I haven't seen the movie so I
don't know what happens, So for now we can just say that both Ed and Al
got their bodies back and came home. Happy ending?
Dedication:
To one of my best friends, Choshojo. She got me into both Yoai and
Shounen-Ai, Plus she has been an extremly good friend.

Fletcher gave out a loud stressed sigh. The youngest Tringham wore a long black jacket and a black top hat. His blond hair poked out very little but his big blue eyes suck out as they scanned the town for someone important.
Fletcher stuck his hands deep into his pockets to keep his hands warm from the faint wind and bit his bottom lip, Edward Elric had been seen around town with a young blond last night.
Fletcher found himself biting his lip so hard that blood began to drip down his chin "Is it possible that Alphonse got his body back?" He thought with a confused look upon his face. Flecther and his brother had met the Elrics about four years ago, they claimed to be looking for the Philosopher's Stone and that they were on a journey to get their real bodies back. Had they been successful?
Fletcher quickly wiped the blood from his chin with the sleeve of his jacket, and let out another sigh. Where could his brother be? Had his brother heard the news about the Elric yet?
-------------------------------
Russle flipped through a very old brown book, He was sitting in the middle of the town library on a small wooden table of the many. He was chewing at the tip of his thumb, Deep in the book he was reading more information about the red stone "Fletcher will love to hear this great information I found!" He thought happily as he continued on reading his book and taking in as much information as he possibly could.
Then the library door opened gently as foot steps could be heard as a person walked in, At first Russle ignored this, There were always people coming in the library and he wasn't expecting someone anyway. Plus, he wanted to finish this interesting book.
"Do you have any resent books on Alchemy?"
At first the voice sounded familiar, But Russle kept reading with his head slightly perked to one side.
"No? Thats too bad, Do you know any where we could find any?"
Russle's eyes widened when he realized who it was. It couldn't be! Edward disappeared into the underground city four years ago, It was said he never came back.
"Really? I thought we just checked there, Right Al?"
Russle lifted his head quickly and looked toward the front desk, He gasped.
There in a brown jacket and a grin was Edward Elric.
Russle stood up quickly, almost knocking down his chair "Edward? Elric?" He muttered studying Edward closely with his wide blue eyes.
At first Edward just stood there looking at Russle and Russle just stood there looking at Edward, they both looked dumbstruck.
Then a little mumble broke the stares and silence between the two boys
"Excuse me, Can we help you?" Came a faint but high pitched voice beside Edward.
Russle was so much into looking at Edward that he did not notice the small blonde headed blue eyed boy standing beside Edward.
Russle blushed ashamed about how rude he had been and how stupid he must have looked "No, I'm- I'm sorry." He muttered looking down to the dirty wood floor, Did Edward and Alphonse not remember him?
"The fake?" Edward laughed folding his arms across his chest "I'll never forget you!"
Russle growled and looked back up from the floor, Why was he still calling him after all these years a 'fake'?
"You haven't grown an inch since I last saw you!" He yelled walking up to the oldest Elric and poking him hard on the middle of his forehead.
Edward growled and swiped away Russle's hand from his head "SHUT UP!" He yelled madly at the comment about his hight, it seemed like steam was coming out from his head.
Russle laughed at this, Edward still had the weakness of being called short. Russle folded his arms across his own chest with a smirk and an eyebrow raised "You have a lot to explain after all these years.You haven't really changed at all have you, Edward Elric?" Russle said happily as recalled the first time they all had met.
Edward frown over to Russle, feeling his face grow hot "If we are to talk about the past then we must find somewhere private!" He hissed in a whisper.
Then Russle looked at the young boy who had been standing quietly the whole time "Who is that? Alphonse?" He asked as he studied the boy closely.
Edward nodded in reply to Russle's question, still frowning "Yes, This is Al." He then turned toward his brother "Al, Can you go and explore the town for awhile?" He asked with a kind smile.
Alphonse nodded but still stood there with a worried look in his eyes "Is something wrong brother? Why do you not want me to be here?" He asked, his eyes seemed to be getting bigger.
Edward smirked and shook it off "It nothing to worry about. Why don't you go pick up some bread for us tonight." He said digging into one of his jacket pockets and pulling out some money, holding out his hand full of money for his brother to take.
Alphonse nodded and slowly took the money, Still unsure of what was going on, He finally began to walk toward the door before he stopped once again "Where will you be?" He asked looking back toward the two older boys.
Edward offered Alphonse a weak smile and shook at his brother as if dismissing him "Don't worry, We will be back here before you come back." He said waving Al away.
------------
Flecther was still biting down on his bottom lip, Where was his brother? Where were the Elrics if the rumors were true? Why was he all of a sudden feeling more alone?
Fletcher did not enjoy being alone much, He was usually at this brother's side studying the red stone. But today his brother told him that he was going into town to pick up some milk from the market because their milk that they had at home was now spoiled.
Flecther had been walking through the market for hours it seemed and he still found no sign of his brother of the Elrics, which worried Fletcher a bit too much.
Fletcher found himself breaking into a run and his heart beating fast against his chest, Looking down at the dirt ground that he kicked up as he ran. It surprised himself that he began to cry.
Before Fletcher could lift up his head to look where he was going he heard a loud ring in his ears "SMACK!" And then he was in-cased in darkness.
